Session 189 Video Analysis

So before I get into the next session, I have decided to do an extensive look into the last few videos that I saw because OH BOY there was a lot to discuss in there. Hell, I didn’t even now that the video was 14 Minutes Long because I was so absorbed into in.

So after a careful rewatched, here is what I got from last time. (please bear with me, I tried to put my thoughts in the most cohesive was I can but it is long as fuck)

(I also use a lot of pictures to prove my point, so prepare for that too)

First, I never fucking meant for the shaving cream to actually hit. I mean, I hoped and dreamed, but that was to hit Jack not Jade! Y’all are just mean.

[S] Cascade

To point out the title, in programming, to cascade is where you can call multiple methods on the same object at the same time. So, literally all of these events and stories are happening at the same time of one thing – The Scratch.

K so it looked like what Scratch said about of the boys needing a sword is bullshit, because John is doing just fine scratching the disc with the SBURB needle cutter thing, that cut the power cylinders.

John did good. Scratch complete. Just like Dave’s Fucking Shirt!!!

Why the hell is the Shadow Dark God there? It is just…watching. How did you even get down there??

I mean, later on we get to see what the Dark God looks like up close. I too would be like Dave and try to do anything I can to look away. At least they also get nuked.

So that beginning out of the way, let’s get this heavy piece of information out of the way.

The Scratch literally had nothing to do with Jack going into the Troll Verse. It was Jade, all Jade.

Jack hated frogs, and the universe is a Frog, so he wants to kill the universe (multiverse, etc). But he couldn’t, because Jade was alive. As long as she lived, the universe was safe. Because killing the universe would mean that Jack would kill Jade.

But with Jade dead, it was all free game.

Hence the red lines I saw from before just tearing up the place. I thought they would be more…nicer, than what was actually going on.

But before he goes off on his murder spree, it was nice of Jack to place Jade in the god bed before going off to destroy everything.

Does that excuse anything he did? Hell Fucking No. But this is a sign of respect, where Jack spent so much time with Jade that the feelings of Bec really did consume him to caring for her, in whatever way he could. Which was not killing everything until she died.

So here he is, to go into the Frog Shrine (the same one where Bec was created) to lock himself into the flower.

And course the flower that jack was in was old and rotten. He literally is Cancer.

But it was also the same meteor that crashed landed millions of years ago to create Jade’s Island. So Jack still was by Jade while she grew up. I have mixed feelings about that.

Then we zoom to the future where Future Jack launches his attack and Current Jack now awakens.

Rotten flower blooms of death

And Jack murders people. That Guy basically amounted to nothing. Unless that notebook he has was another DNA codebook, and somehow managed to last and survive into the new dimension world, then maybe he had a point. Maybe. 

This part was especially cruel, because Mayor was afraid of Jack, was spared by Jack on a whim.

Only to be killed later on.

Because the Scratch isn’t what caused Jack to go into the Troll-Verse. It was Jack all along. He needed the radioactive power crystal to give him enough energy to break out of the Frog and outside of its universe.

See, this machine would teleport a person either into the frog, into the future universe after the frog, or into the universe before the frog.

And we all know what happened then.

So let’s move on to the bomb, in all of its glory.

And you see the bomb like dripping away to hatch out a chemistry set. It was gross watching it melt away.

And these tubes have to be the universes of the Humans and the Trolls, right? Because 1) When we were zooming in/out before the start of Act 5.2 (you know, when I kept yelling at space) we zoomed out of red and into blue. Matches the two universes that Sollux saw with his eyes, etc etc.

2) We zoom into Red – We see Earth, Zoom into Blue – We see Alternia.

So the bomb is like the ultimate kill switch where it will kill Both universe at once, or activates when both universes die, either way.

How did the Troll’s Universe Die? Well we see Spades shoot Snowman.

Which is badass because Spades knows that killing her kills the universe and he gives no shits here.

Pierces through her heart, the heart of the universe, and there is one universe down. Scratch was fucking right, his shitty gun with one bullet was what was needed to kill everything.

See? Both universe die, so the bomb is going to work.

I have to wonder though, if the Former Black Queen was forced into this life of immortality like how Scratch and English is going to force Ancestor Feferi and Aradia. 

So the beds are slightly confusing to me, because the rules weren’t exactly what we thought it was before. So Original Idea: You die on the bed, get revived in your dream body. That was what happened to John. But Witch Jade, she was already dead

so either as long as you put the physical dead body on the dream bed, then you are still awaken to your Dream Body.

(will talk about you in depth later, but this does explain Hussie Cosplay choice from before)

But then you have Dave and Rose, who were already in their dream bodies. (Jack killing Dave and Rose before)

Here they are floating in Cthulhu space.

And inside their own moons were more beds. Again, they are already in dream bodies when they reach here.

So my ideas is this: because Scratch said that there were two ways to become gods, but both require you to die on a bed.

You either find the bed on the planet in your physical form, “sleep” there by dying and awaken to god powers in ultimate dream body.

Or, you are asleep in Dream Body with no Physical Body. Dream Body is your only body. You find the Dream Beds on your Dream Moon in your Dream Body. And you die “awake” and revive to be gods.

And the reason you need your Dream Body, no matter what oath you take? Because it is everyone’s dream to be a god.

And can I just say how it is cool that the Prospit Kids became gods in the same way, and the Durse Kids because gods in a different way. I just like that.

Now let’s talk about Jade’s path to godhood.

The only reason why her path on the planet bed worked was because of Jadesprite. Her Dream Body was still technically alive, because it got revived. If it didn’t, Jade would have died. So reviving herself was the best choice. 

Which gives me questions. Because now Jade literally has all the knowledge of the game from the sprite, all the powers of space from her dog, and has fused back with her other formerly-dead Dream Self. So, does she still have her Dream-Self memories? Does she remember talking with Davesprite, how she felt/what she saw while dead?

But now, she has the powers of all of fucking space. That is adorably frightening. 

Yeah, I would be shocked too. Also, Jade just sort of left him there.

There she goes on the ship, but Dave is just still there. Not even going to bother to join up I guess. Or Float fast to reach her. And Jade doesn’t even think about, grabbing him as she leaves. Just, thanks for leaving him behind Jade. Not everyone is a super god like you.

Sure she is still saving him by picking up the planet, but shouldn’t he at least be given like crew status on your Space-breaking ship?

See? She teleported John to the ship!!!! Davesprite got screwed.

I love her being able to gather up all the planets by shrinking them, as a Witch of literal Space and have them around her. But more importantly because it just destroys Scratch’s shitty doily and I love that.

I also love how the buildings are still there. Like, making the planets look like giant lollipops.

But Jade creating the 4^th wall panel for them to bust through was beautifully done. And so clever, because they are literally jumping together to reach the other side before the reset happens, so they can still keep their memories. Back to before the beginning.

And they bust through in the exact same panel and spot that Ancient Aradia was beating the chair on.

Now For Something Completely Different

ok, I get that Gamzee was important in making nightmares come true

In making Cal. And that the creation of Jade-Sprite did literally change the world with God-Jade. But I don’t think that Gamzee is the most important character, at least not in reference. Like, what he has red and blue antennas in his head for a good signal in the computer? Naw, the “most important character” Hussie is talking about has to be Cal. Or English? Is there really a difference? Because Cal because Scratch and…sort of…Evolved to Lord English.

Because he is talking to Scratch. Last Words are “oh yeah? AND JUST WHAT THE MOTHER FUCKING IS IT that we motherfuckin are?”

Scratch: “S u c k e r s”

So Cal really was the evil villain we made along the way.

With the heat-death of the universe from The Tumor Bomb finally blowing up, English makes his entrance, and Dave & Rose become Gods. But it now looks like the “green sun larger than two universes” was actually the combined destruction of both of their universes merged into one. Who knew.

I mean, that Explains how Rose and Dave reached Aradia at the Green Sun. They were just waiting for the right time.

Gang found the signal (Gamzee was manipulated by the puppet can’t tell me otherwise) time to blast off!

I think that the reason Sollux was able to psychic power his way to the green sun was because of this Sollux

One of Sollux’s dead bodies was already there, and acted like a beacon for the other Sollux to latch himself onto to drag them to the green sun.

Of Course, this means that history I guess repeats itself. Sollux died pushing himself as the helmsman like his ancestor. And when he died, the time bubble shit didn’t work as well for him since they were at The Scratch Event.  So Sollux’s body was thrown back in space by Aradia to help with leading the trolls there. That was why he was binary in black and white, from this moment.

They were both blind so Karkat had to point them in the right direction, that’s funny.

Now let’s move on to PM

Can you imagine being her right now? She was forced to go into this quest by Jack when he was the beady like secretary. She completed her for Jack for the rabbit package at the cost of basically fucking the white kingdom (in her mind). And now she faces him again after years in exile in yet another form.

Watching him kill her friends.

Safety man deserves better.

And she drags Mayor out as Jack destroys yet another world she lives in.

But then she finds the ring, and

Time to Fuck Jack Up!!!

But look at that, she took his body. She took his body with her. The power in that right was so great because of Jade that it automatically teleported her to the place she needed to be. Because I doubt that she would have taking the body back inside the machine after pulling Mayor out.

So that is the end of Cascade, leaving behind basically a burning universe for the hope of another chance.

[S]  Begin Intermission 2

So this was the rise/creation of  Lord English. If you haven’t seen my video, boy do I have thoughts on him.

Scratch was a literal fucking host. God that made me so mad. No wonder you had to die, like some messed up parasite.

I still can’t tell if that is supposed to be a roulette wheel or a pool stick or what, but it gaudy enough to match your trash style.

Because thank god you needed you aesthetics of stealing Hussie’s robe he stole from you. Other wise Team Human might not have busted through. 

But look at this guy? I am supposed to be afraid of him?? He looks like a snapper turtle who got cooked in his shell.

He looks like someone tried to make a shrunken skull of a Namekian while on the Namekian.

He looks like if a human and a spider alien tried to make a relationship work, but then when they saw the child, they just left him in the woods and agree to never call each other again.

I mean, the comic was going on about how terrifying he is. And maybe his power is terrifying…… but his head hatched into that of a puppet head that got a seaweed facial that somehow melded into his skin so he is perma-green.

He is like if a puppet got Hulk powers, but has so many health issues you can’t even begin to think of a treatment to help him.

It’s just, it is hard to take him so seriously when I can make so many jokes about him. 

[S] Act 6

There isn’t much to say about this video. They are in an alternate dimension. This is if the roles of the kids and the adults got switched around.

Jane Crocker has to be like the granddaughter of John. And it even looks like she has some items from the other dimension too

I see that shitty ink stain, you can never disappear can you? Not even in another dimension.

It looks like the kids in adult form also took on adult roles. Alternate-Rose is another genetic scientist that is studying the 4th wall.

Alternate Dave actually because a popular comic artist. Good for him, I hope this Dave has a better life.

I have to wonder if the god-tadpole they made is still in the volcano.

And the who galaxy is in her eyes. So idk if that means that the new universe is within her, or if she is just seeing space right now.

But I am more intrigued in this set up. She has a Troll Exile. Or at least type in Alternia. And the symbol is the doctor Hippocratic oath stuff. And it is a troll because

Troll Hands.

So yeah…that was all of my in-depth look at the videos I saw yesterday.
