Hi, I hope it's alright to ask you this, but when is Lil Hal's body seen? (The one that looks like Dirk, with the red wire vein things on his face.) I don't remember at all, and I'm too embarrassed to ask anyone else...
What will happen if Calliope takes off the ring now? Will she turn back into a ghost? Or does the ring just ensure that she won't die again as long as she's wearing it?
She would turn back into a ghost, I believe. Wearing the ring makes her invulnerable and immortal.
rose talks about wanting to break up gamzee and terezi and kanaya confirms this to be grey feelings, so it's not just to prevent black infidelity. i can't pinpoint the page, though.
Yes, Rose believes that Terezi and Gamzee’s kismessitude would upset Karkat and cause a schism in their group and Kanaya suggests that Rose mediate between the two.
Do we know any info on the Troll's fight with the Black King?
The trolls’ fight with the Black King isn’t shown in-comic but Karkat mentions that Gamzee landed a pretty powerful attack and that Vriska landed the killing blow. There’s also a really cool fanmade Flash video of the battle that you may want to check out.
Where is it said that the cherubs live in the universe the humans create? I always thought they just lived on the Earth the Alpha kids come from. Kind of like the Exiles in the other sessions.
Aranea states on this page that the Lord of Time hatches in the universe created by the kids’ session so she’s going to try and stop the session from bearing fruit.
I was scrolling through your blog and I saw the ask about Billious Slick, the universe frog. Is there a reason why he is named so closely to Spades Slick?
Spades Slick changed his name to Slick in reference to Bilious Slick as a big “fuck you” to the Black Queen since he knows she hates the Genesis Frog.
what do we know about the plot of Hiveswap? Thank you.
Hiveswap is a game about a young human girl named Joey who gets sucked through a portal to the alien planet of Alternia. There, she joins a band of troll rebels and embarks on a journey to save the world and find a way home. A troll boy is switched in her place and ends up on Earth. You can find out more about the game here.
If a player's dream self is dead, how are they expected to get to their sacrificial slab?
Derse and Prospit exist in the same Medium as the player’s planets so they can just leave their planets and go to the moons just like the Alpha kids did.
What's the difference between a sacrificial slab and a quest bed?
A Sacrificial Slab exists in the center of the moons of Derse and Prospit. You only need one life to ascend on those. A Quest Bed is located on the player’s planet and you need both lives to ascend on those.
"The cherubs’ live in the universe the kids’ session will eventually create so we know they complete sburb in the future." I thought they lived on the earth that the beta kids left, but way in the distant future, like how the exiles live on the destroyed planets after the sburb players enter the medium. Because I dont see why the universe created by the kids would include an earth. No hate, just trying to understand this.
The exiles lived on pre-scratch Earth long after the kids had entered the Medium. Post-scratch Earth is the one covered in water. The kids will bring post-scratch Earth into the new universe since Vriska has captchalogued Earth and given it to John then suggested that they live on it in the future. Also the room where the cherubs live is on the meteor that the trolls and Dave and Rose traveled on which has landed on Earth.
Wait so if the dream planets exist on the same reality plane as the medium, does that mean that a person's waking self and dream self could meet in person?
One of them would be asleep unless they have developed the ability to be conscious in both bodies like Dirk. But yes, it is possible to meet your own dream self.
Would you mind giving me some assistance with the [S] update? I know it should be longer, but I can't get past the panorama of Enchidna, Karkat, and Kanaya. I've scrolled down and nothing happened. If you don't mind, could you please help?
Is there any evidence to suggest that a player needs to have only ONE life to use their Sacrificial Slab?
Yes, Jake’s dreamself was killed before the game started and he was able to ascend on his Sacrificial Slab. See also Dave and Rose’s main bodies dying and ascending on their slabs with their dream selves. Aradia was also able to ascend on her slab with one life.
if i am correct, it was actually stated early on that the beta session was a doomed timeline, alpha dave said it himself, plus i think i figured out why her imperious condescension has all those powers. the dersite queen's ring. once gamzee prototyped the sprites with the dead bodies of the trolls, she automatically got their powers and abilities. correct me if i'm wrong
The Beta session wasn’t doomed, it was just a null session. They were always meant to scratch their session and merge with the the Alpha kids’ session. The Condesce developed the other troll powers because she experimented on herself and unlocked the abilities. The Alpha kids’ Black Queen’s ring doesn’t give people troll powers, it turns them invisible.
What is the session called if you have a space and void player in it? Does it count as a space and void session or am I just mixing stuff up??
The aspects of the players have nothing to do with what type of session it is. A void session is when the players don’t prototype their kernel sprites before entering. A null session just means something went wrong and they’re quite common. There’s no such thing as a space session.
What was Aradia's main role after she went godtier?
She greeted Dave and Rose after they ascended and brought them to the meteor. She’s been mostly hanging out in the dream bubbles and she went on Vriska’s treasure hunt. She was last seen here.
So, to clarify, should your dream self or your own self already be dead by the time you reach your quest bed, you cannot ascend to God Tier. However, a sacrificial slab only requires the dream or regular self? What do you ascend to on a sacrificial slab? Thanks~ ☺️
You’re correct. You ascend to god tier on your Sacrificial Slab.
Can sprites die? Also, was Dave actually sad about his Bro's death or not?
Yes, sprites can die. See Fefetasprite and Tavrisprite dying and Davesprite dying in the post-retcon timeline. Dave was probably a little upset about Bro’s death.
She exploded on this page because Arquiusprite and Erisolsprite kept trying to talk to the Nepeta and Feferi part of her at the same time and it caused her to explode.
I'm really scared, dude, do you think that that lava in the final panel is in motion? I'm really scared that Karkat's going to get melted by the lava in his sleep or something!
I don’t think Karkat’s gonna get killed by lava in two timelines. Beside, Echidna is right around the corner and she needs him alive and won’t let him die.
Are there now two living Aradias hanging around the Dream Bubbles (Game Over and Retcon timelines both being in the furthest ring), or were the living residents of the Game Over timeline erased while the Ghosts survived?
Possibly, we aren’t sure what happened to their pre-retcon selves
In the pre-retcon timeline when we were just meeting god tier Aradia with blind Sollux on Vriska's ghost ship, Vriska said that Aradia's powers would become useful once they found the "treasure". Sorry if my memory is bad but what exactly was that treasure and what would Aradia have had to do with it?
The treasure is Caliborn’s juju, the white intangible house. Aradia has telekinesis so Vriska brought her along so she could move the juju.
if one was to go god tier and their dream self was prototyped, is there any special way they need to die to go god tier, or can their waking self just die on their normal quest bed?
Their waking self needs to die on their Quest Bed like Jade did when Jadesprite went godtier.
