Part 179

in ,

So with that last video I ended on Vriska living through a memory and realizing that she is dead. I just sort of clicked on the first thing I saw and John was it.

So what I am going to do is continue with the Vriska story, and then go back and click on the other two stories. Because and am nothing if not dedicated to reading every little piece of homestuck I can get my hands on.

So that being said, let’s continue and get out of this Olive Green Nightmare. I hate Scratch’s house.

K, so, a lot of people have said this to me, but I thought that I managed through it pretty well during the video.

Scratch was telling us a story, and while doing that Slick fucked around, burned the house, attacked the felt gang, got killed by them, but Snowman saw and came by to save Slick, where they have a passonate hate filled kiss to Scratch’s dismay and anger. Scratch beats the shit out of Slick for not killing Snowman, gives him his gun, and Slick zaps away somehow.

The story Scratch was telling was Vriska and Terezi having their last conflict, of Vriska going off to fight Jack but leading him to kill everyone else. And while she did try to avenge them, it didn’t stop them dying. So Terezi went through to kill Vriska, kissing a relieved Karkat, regrouping with Kanaya and Sollux, and finally confronting Gamzee who made a FUCKING DECAPITATED HEAD JURY BOX.

And after the Slick Banner story ended, it started the Banner story of Jade and Dave raising frogs, being attacked by Jack and attacking him in a glorious battle, only for Jack to fucking kill Dave.

I think that about covers it, or at least what people are referring too.

This is a hard one. It really really is. Because I am trying not to be influenced by the plot of the story, and only judging the characters as they are on a whole.

But it is hard because I don’t know where the line is now anymore.

Viska jumped, because of what she wrote to John. Was she in the right? No, trying to kill Jack would have lead him to kill the rest of them. As hard as it was, Terezi did the right choice in killing her.

But she repented. She wanted to make up for all the bad things she did. She was open and honest about her feelings with John and about her murder past wanting to hang out with him. She wanted to save her friends from Jack, wanted to try and die like a hero. She knew she was going to die, so she wanted to die like a hero. And instead she was killed off as a villain. And that is something cruel and heartbreaking, and unfortunately was unsurprising. I mean, after everything she was doing and putting everyone in danger, yeah she was going to die perminantly. But, I honestly have more respect for her knowing her intent, even if it didn’t match up entirely with her actions.

And Gamzee has now moved to the bottom. He has passed down past Eridan. The reason is simple: He purposefully decapitated all of the corpses, after placing them calculatingly to set up the duel between Terezi and Vriska, and used their head as a fucked up jury. He adopted Cal as his puppet minion which I have no idea how he has that thing of nightmares since that was what Kanaya had a long time ago. And If I were given a choice of meeting Eridan and Gamzee in the middle of the night, I would pick Eridan. Because at least I would be given a chance at survival.

I don’t really have a good command to stop at, so I am using this image here.

Well….that was a long one. 3 videos, all in a row. God that last one. If you managed to watch all of that good for you, I would not be surprised if you just decided to skip it. I have no way to cut it, because there wasn’t anything too cut? It was all in an important segment.

To sum up what the fuck happened.

Terezi got kidnapped by Gamzee and tricked into thinking that Vriska was the one doing ALL the killings. She broke the CD, which means that Scratch was fixing it, said that we were his second guest (the pretentious bastard) and narrated to us that in their duel between Vriska and Terezi, Terezi saw that if Vriska got away she would lure Jack to the base, killing everyone and thus begin to fight her with all of her power.

Like how Jack fought Rose.

So Terezi had to kill her.

Karkat was lured up there by Gamzee and saw that Terezi was ok, and it looks like Sollux is enjoying time with his vampire girlfriend.

Or would have if Gamzee didn’t take the heads of their friends and proceeded to try and kill the rest of them.

And it looks like Karkat defeated him, but I don’t know at what cost. I don’t even know if everyone else is alive or not.

I am so glad that John is alive, but I fucking hated that Scratch had to be the one to remind me the rules of Godhood. God, being in his green website gives me such the creeps. Since apparently he was the one to fuck with them all centuries before!!!

Which, the pirate tale of MindFang is super interesting. Equius’s past self gave up his position for someone of lower standing. I said Nepeta in the video, but it is probably Aradia. Given her blood.

Tavros is to be a great hero, which is why Vriska was always pushing him to fly and be great.

Karkat’s blood race were extinguished or trying an uprising. And because Tavros’s ancestor’s rebellion was more successful that lead to the aliens starting space warfare and let the kids run amok on the planet.

I want to read more about their past, but I doubt I will.

Back to the present, Slick fucking around and destorying Scratch’s apartment was so so satisfying to watch. Even if it didn’t end up the exact way he wanted. I loved how the one way that ruffled up Scratch’s feathers was the face that Spade Loves Triumphs. Scratch was planning on Slick trying to kill her, not kiss her. I am so glad that Scratch couldn’t see everything. But where the fuck did Slick get off to? With Scratch’s gun too.

And Fuck Vriska. I knew that was a death flag from before. She never got a chance to go on a human date or actually say she likes John. And Karkat sure as hell isn’t going to be the one to tell him she is dead.

But damn. She wanted to die heroic, if she was to die. She thought taking on Jack would be a heroic moment for her, so she had everything prepared to finally face him. And instead she dies permanently as a villain. After everything that she tries to atone for, for all of her murder that she had done in the past, even if she wanted to change for good she still died as a just death. Her story was pretty tragic. And she wanted to go out with John! There might have been feelings between thing too!!! That he might have reciprocated!!! That’s even worse.

Everyone now died at least once, John trying to be helpful will lead him to a heroic death is the funniest things to read. So the Scratch is planned and try are now trying to jump into the next new dimension. I honest to god hope this fucking works.
