I'd like to clarify the question about vriska and the sprites... All of the beta kids' sprites were prototyped twice right? Like johns sprite was prototyped with nana's ashes and the Harley Quinn doll. Dave's sprite was prototyped with the crow and a doomed Dave. Rose's sprite was jasper(?) and that weird cephalopod plushy. And jade's was becquerel and dream jade. So vriska would be right about jake and tavrossprite then, right? (Sorry if I did this in the wrong area. First time doing this :/ )
When John high fived his sprite it didn’t have Nanna’s ashes in it yet so it was only single tier prototyped.
We’ve also seen Kanaya’s sprite touch her and it was only single prototyped as well.
Since grandpa stuffed jade's dreamself's body through some time travel portal stuff, doesn't that mean he could have stuffed his own body through the same means?
The teleporter doesn’t work that way. He was teleproted into the future because the Medium did not exist at his time when he used the teleporter. And when he went home it teleported him right back to the time period he left. Grandpa Harley had no way to teleport into Earth’s future or even ahead of his own timeline.
You’ve probably already gotten this but: “except for Rose”? Kindly look at Jaspersprite and Roxy’s text again.
Originally Jasper and Roxy’s text colors were different, it wasn’t until after the Retcon that they became the same. This text color change may be to distinguish between the two Jaspersprites that now exist.
Has anything been confirmed about the pre-retcon sprites? Like, pre-retcon Erisol, pre-retcon Davesprite etc. Are they all on LOWAS or was it just Jaspersprite that came over?
Could you possibly link it the theory for the bright red meaning damaged please?? And what about Kanaya? Her skirt is bright red and I was wondering, like how Nepeta wears equius' colour, is it like her and Karkat without the moirailleigence? Or?
Sure. And I doubt Kanaya’s skirt is in reference to Karkat’s blood color since she didn’t know it was red until after they started playing the game.
Is Tavrosprite the same version of Tavros that went treasure hunting with Vriska? I know most of the pre retcon characters were erased but Treasure Hunting!Tavros was in the dream bubbles at the time, which seems to be unaffected by the retcon
The pre-retcon characters weren’t erased, they still exist. But no this isn’t that Tavros.
I got a new laptop and need to save my game at the end so I'm ready for the upd8, but I'm not sure how many pages there are? Could you post a link to the most recent page?
You couldn’t just go to the last page yourself? I don’t understand but whatever, here you go.
What would happen if someone fell asleep after their moon (Prospit/Derse) blew up/Got destroyed? Like with the trolls. Can they still sleep or would it be bad for them to sleep?
It was bad for them, until Feferi had the Horrorterros make special dreambubbles for her and her friends to go to when they dream or die.
I've started catching up on upd8s, but do I really have to go in the loop and re-read all the old shit I've already read when John is following Terezi's instructions about where to zap to?
wait... my friend said a thing and it fucked me up, does Tavros really have fire powers or was that just a running gag?
We’ve only seen him make fire once. So either it’s only something he can do in his dreams or he doesn’t have a use for it outside of Alternian slam poetry.
when davesprite died from being on the planet that exploded with this new timeline's old john, will davesprite live in dream bubbles now or will he just cease to exist?
The Dave that prototyped himself is now in the dreambubbles, but the sprite is no more.
Fraymotifs are powerful special attacks that can be purchased by the heroes from their consorts. Each player has three personal fraymotifs and one combo for each of the other players. For example, John has 6, three for him and one for Rose, Dave, and Jade.
What are horror terrors and what can they do, if anything?
The Horrorterrors are mysterious eldritch creatures that reside in the Furthest Ring. They’re giant tentacle monsters that whisper to the Derse dreamers and their motives are unknown.
I may be mistaken but when Nanna was talking to fedora freak did she mention something about the lady raising her not being human? Does that mean she has Janes memories or?
Nanna and Grandpa were raised by the Condesce who is a troll. Jane was raised by Dad Crocker.
wait so why are bec and the white dog lady chasing eachother? are they like kismesis or? whats the white dogs name anyways?
The white dog lady is Peregrine Mendicant prototyped with the same powers as Bec Noir. She’s chasing Bec Noir because he murdered her friends during [S] Cascade. While Bec Noir has flushed feelings for her, she has blackrom feelings for him.
WAIT. "Nanna and Grandpa were raised by the Condesce who is a troll." Does that mean that the beta kids' (John, Dave, Rose, Jade) guardians knew about Sburb?? I hadn't realized that the time loop reached back that far!
Considering Grandpa owned the company that produced it pre-scratch, yes it’s entirely possible that they knew about Sburb
Squiddles aren't trickster Horrorterrors. "Squiddles I guess are a sort of candy coated representation of the outer gods. (...) They were not necessarily conjured into existence by the gods, via dark conspiracy either. It's more likely that humans created them as an echo of their subconscious awareness that these gods exist, and present them through this cute, approachable facade."— Andrew Hussie
Doesn’t going trickster turn the user into candy coated representations of themselves though?
Okay, so if Jack Noir already killed the Beta Kid's Black King, then is their new goal to kill the Alpha Kid's black king to be able to win? Or is it hopeless for both sets of kids?
Alpha kids’ black king was already killed. Given that it’s a void session he never expanded past his chess piece form and was blown of by CD.
