OK, so, to clarify…I was not expecting anything vaguely supernatural related in this series. I was under the impression that it was mostly a science fiction time romp. So when you throw in stuff like The Afterlife here, I get pretty suspicious and I don’t fully trust it. Because, ok if there is a nice afterlife for everyone on Earth like heaven that is one thing, but so far it looks like the only people with afterlife bubbles like this are the kids playing the game.

And I trust this game as far as I can throw it.

So unless I see Bro getting his own afterlife bubble, I am just going to wait until the other shoe to drop. Because there has to be a reason that the kids who were “defeated” are given some sort of consolation prize.

And fine! Jade wasn’t in a Cult, she was just probably talking to the other Dead SBURB children that played this game. It still doesn’t mean I don’t trust this set up.

Part 168 End

I am tired, I am done, I did a lot, and am going to bed.

So many conversations. So Many.

Vriska does have a emotional tenderness to her, and John is actually helping her coax it out. It was cool to hear about her past, it was sweet to see John be so open with her. And fine, fuck it. yeah I do see them together as Diamonds/Moirails. I accept this.

Karkat being terrified of what Terezi might type is valid. And I feel so sorry that he thinks that giving them all life was a horrible thing. Sollux is awake, but was blind due to Eridan. At least he isn’t hearing voices anymore. Hopefully those three can team up to try and deal with the murderers of Gamzee and Eridan. Vriska seems to mellowed out so maybe they can be a team of four?

If they are lucky no one else dies yet.

I still don’t know where Kanaya’s body went to. I still think she is a vampire.

The signs are for Blood Color, not specific Trolls and I couldn’t have been more happier for that.

And Dave and Araida….not going to lie, I did not expect to see the afterlife in this comic. And I don’t trust it. Like, dream bubble is one thing, but the game keeps the souls as their afterlife? That…that is another thing. Something that I don’t trust.

I want to see an Army of Ghost Daves rise up to help, because I don’t trust this bullshit Time God, and I don’t trust Aradia.

Sure she has her emotions….but she seems to be creepily intend on keeping them for as long as she can. While valid, I am still going to watch out for her.
