Yeah, same here. Sure it was a murderous spider, but it was your family, so it matters to you

She still wants to be on Vriska’s side. ok, nice you still got a friend here

I can’t tell if she is frustrated at Goth for ‘judging’ her, or if she is frustrated at herself for even doing those bad things in the first place. Given the odd amount of 8′s there are, I think it is the latter

So Vriska maybe was shunned for feeding her spider with people, and Goth wants to make sure she is supported by being her friend. Alright then

There we go, some good nature teasing

Damn, Goth is like an older sister to her. “You don’t have bad luck, just bad habits”. And Vriska responds exactly like a little sister defending herself right now

TL;DR: the events are necessary, but instictively no one’s fault. So the curse/bad luck has nothing to do with it, it was just fate.

Was Goth trying to support Vriska by saying that her Bad Luck isn’t the cause, so she shouldn’t blame herself?

Perfect. Me and Vriska can have a bonding moment in deciphering what the hell Goth is about to say next

I mean, yeah pretty much. Now did the code that Karkat run caused all of this bad luck in the first place, or was the code sent back to Karkat to be run by him specifically

They are talking about Aradia. They know she lost her Lusus, but do they know that she is dead?

I guess Vriska does care about her spider then.

is this why Vriska would rather meddle, because she thinks that some people look down on her for how she acts?

Sweetie, I don’t look down on you for acting excited and hyper; I look down on you for feeding trolls to a spider

I think “preemptive consequence” is a good way of putting time traveling results here

See I feel like they would normally sound sarcastic and rude, but given the context of her hearing about her friend’s dead family, I think this is more joking to cheer her up than any real bite to it

Don’t worry, you will in the game. You will get your chance to see the Mother Grub

ok, so her Lusus could have lived longer, but chose to live with her? That was sweet of the insect thing

Are you sure about that? Because given the nature of SBURB, Vriska might be onto something here

ok, it is nice to see that Vriska can be somber and sympathetic at moments. It reminds us that even villains have emotions other than evil

That is a weird ass thing to say to someone. Not the Cahoots part, the dead family member part

That’s one was to start a conversation. “Hey, are you an orphan yet?”

k, why does Goth have Jade’s lunchbox?
