I can't quite grasp the personality of Ult Jake but i will definitely like him Like I love all heroes who live long enough eventually rot into villains with power I'm also looking forward to seeing John in the end just become a deity with no humanity. If everyone gets the ultimate self and is alienated and indifferent things are bound to get interesting like the prologue to some kind of cosmic war Once an ally for each other now he's pointing his gun at your head.

And then there's always that one character who still doesn't give up or just half gives up Maybe the ult Dave? He's definitely trying to find a John in an infinite timeline who can handle things. Lets all just don't be badass. And Dave is just infinitely ultimately lost in time.

ult dirk is just prologue Ult Rose just finally watch numbly and never lead anyone again ult jade? she's missing ult roxy refuses to come out of the void, she's off camera ult jane? oh her empire is more prosperous than condesce almost half of the universe is her empire ult jake. It's chaos itself, his whereabouts are unpredictable Ult John is just invisible in Earth C 's society，no one can find him or remember him

In the end ult Dave was looking for a turning point in time for them and got lost in the timeline and forgot where he came from. The story will start with Jake, who is simply pulling a string of harmful pranks on Jane's empire. Jane was angrily trying to find him, and Dirk was Jane's military adviser. When he finds jake they just fight and flirt and destroy a bunch of balls and creatures. Dirk's feelings for Ultimate Jake are completely described as black hatred. This time jake is the toxic ex-boyfriend character. Karkat and Earth's rebels are just trying to stop the human gods who were once their friends. kanaya stayed at rose's temple praying for her lover to come out but rose didn't respond to her or show up John found a job on Earth, commuted from 9 to 5 every day, watched the cosmic news broadcast on TV and didn't care. roxy and jade are gone, like gods who have disappeared. Dave keeps jumping in the timeline, he wants to escape and find a way to break this timeline. Jake's resistance to him only made Dave more tired and lost in time. Before Dave was finally swallowed into a dark timeline and trapped, he finally heard Jake say a word to him "Wizards who play with time never end well".

Also if you really want some lore snippets please look at Eikasia, Noesis and its wonderful companion fic written by @tipsygnostalgy for some more ideas to chew on!!! They’re relatively short reads with witty banter. Look!!

Yk those playlists you made ? I really wanna hear an analysis on why you chose them / picked them. I enjoy the playlists so much - I'd love 2 see you talk about it more !! :D

Me to Dirk and Jake at our weekly couples counseling (they’ve been skipping them for multiple weeks now and they’re both sitting there looking disheveled presumedly after a nasty fight): You know the only way I can see this relationship going is a violent and bloody breakup turning into an undefined kismesis and I think you two should get with the memo and start kissing.

Thankyou for this ask. :) I didn’t expect people to be interested in it so much. Well, I started off by collecting a selection of songs to carry a certain vibe, and then look for others in my library that match them. For the Ultimate Dirkjake playlist, (WHICH I RECOMMEND YOU LISTEN TO WITH SHUFFLE OFF, IN THE ORDER IT WAS PLACED) I wanted to convey violence (as a form of love, and something I’ll probably touch on in another ask I’ve been drafting up), and the general obsession they have with each other. 

I screened each songs lyrics to make sure it’s not really just “vibe” that carries them, they have to have the majority of their lyrics relate to Dirk or Jake in one way or other as i think of them., and then chunk them according to what leads smoothly into the other song, though the first 9 songs tell a story on purpose.

For example, we start off with Mr. Blue Sky. They say every good movie starts off with a killer soundtrack, and Mr. Blue Sky is just one of those universally loved tracks that just hit right, and I think it's also because mentally I was reminded of that killer Guardians of the Galaxy 2 fight scene in the very beginning, setting the tone for a really great film.

Kiss with a fist is a song that is about love that is violent, love that is NOT, mind you, abusive, but a metaphor for the strength of a lovers passion. There is no victimisation, "the song is describing a highly destructive relationship, but one which both partners enjoy. But it’s all metaphorical." It fits well for Dirk and Jake in my mind. Their passion is destruction, and one they take to with passion. It's alluring.

You're nothing without me is *the* song of all time for Ult Dirkjake. It was one of the first songs I found that fit them so perfectly, I mean seriously, look at these lyrics.

You're nothing without me / Without me you'd just disappear / Right into thin air / And no one would care / Or notice you ever were here A puppet, an upstart / A loser who's destined to fall / I'm everything / you always wanted to be / Let's deal with the issue: / You wish you were me / You're nothing without me / Without me you're nothing / At all!

Dirk and Jake bridle on a rivalry built on love, and with a rivalry, you must to some regard, regard the other as lower and yourself higher than them, which Dirk and Jake do, they're very well aware of it, and that is what Ultimate DirkJake is, it's them acknowledging these upfront in a way to mock and belittle the others in a verbal duel.

Like every other Dirkjaker, a Dirkjake playlist is not complete without Lemon Demon. Lemon Demon is intrinsically threaded within the matter of Dirkjake, whether it be two trucks, a touch tone telephone, or in this case, The Satirists Love Song. "This song is about a cynical individual who basically proclaims to his ex-lover, “IT’S JUST A PRANK, BRO,” claiming the relationship was purely satirical and never intended to be taken seriously." Which sounds like a massive cope because it reads just like that. A massive COPE and SEETHE, which could not be more on the point of Ultimate Dirk as it is.

And speaking of Ult Dirk.. we lead into DESTROYER, by saint motel. It's a song about a guy whos exlover is someone who literally claims they don't just break hearts, they destroy them. It takes one look at the lyrics for you to stand up, wojak point at these words, and recognise Jake English and his predicament over what society tells him to do, and what he desires. And what could he use to truly pacify someone like Ultimate Dirk Penelope Strider?

A slug to the head, in the form of Take Me Out. This song is fucking awesome, I've had it looped for a long while. It's about a standoff, romantic in nature, where two sides are both unmoving in their affection, though they do desperately desire it, for the other to take them out in a metaphorical or literal sense. Their intentions are apparent, but neither wants to give away their position.

Naturally that leads to rejection in the form of Misanthropologist by Will Wood. This song was recommended to me by exaltiora and i think it perfectly describes the plight Dirk Strider keeps himself awake at night with, when it comes to the prick of an ex who stubbornly wouldn't let him fade into space.

I wanna meet your maker / Shake him by his ensanguined damask lapels / Holler “Look what you’ve done, gave this planet a sun / And made a man to wonder if he’s more than the sum of his cells” /'Cause you defy creation / I hate you, I hate you, I do /Hands to the night sky, praying you might die / Before I fall in love with you

And that frustration, that frustration of something so great, can turn to sadness, to grief, which is why we continue with Stay, by the rare occasions. I love The Rare Occasions music, but it was while i was watching my friend Lapa draw a piece of Ult Dirkjake art that it sunk in how it fit them. Before Lapa really started drawing, I never considered Ult Dirkjake that tragic, it was supposed to be a fun way to continue the story of characters I loved, but this song resonated and i realised how sad it could be, two characters who lost themselves seeking "ascension". I think of strangely "tender" moments between the two, with some confusion by the other on why they stick around. Dirk and Jakes relationship is so real in canon, but post-canon, they sort of lose that sincerity, unraveled so to speak.

New Person, Same Old Mistakes, captures that. Dirk and Jake are new people, post-canon they lose all the fondness and innocence afforded of their canon selves.

I can just hear them now / "How could you let us down?" / But they don't know what I found / Or see it from this way 'round / Feeling it overtake / All that I used to hate / One by one, every trait / I tried, but it's way too late

Ult Dirkjake is supposedly a culmination of their other selves affording them omniscience, (to varying degrees?) , but it also means that all their biggest flaws are amplified, whether it's Dirks micromanaging tyrant like behaviour or Jake English being jake English, (and yes i mean that in a derogatory manner). They can claim they're larger than life, greater than great, badder than bad, entirely new people, but they will make the same mistakes.

Shit, i've been rambling for a while. Miiight make a part two if asked, I've calibrated the songs that they blend into each other well without having to shuffle, so like I said, listen to the songs, look at the lyrics. I added two new songs, Rival screams LE jake to me, while bubblegum bitch.. well it's on here because of this one video LOL. It's so right. Thankyou for reading this far! Enjoy the video. It's so funny to me.
