long been intrigued by the fact that Terezi and Latula’s lusus/es seemingly have the same suite of powers as Sollux, those being laser vision and psychic precognition (Terezi’s lusus dreams about a “MYTH1C4L L1TTL3 P1NK MONK3Y” called a “baby”: she has no way of knowing this, but the egg can tell the future)… actually it only occurred to me the other day that the reason this species “remains blind until maturity” is almost definitely because as adults their eyes are deadly weapons, which we find out another thousand and a half pages later. so just like Sollux is, these dragons are very much Scott-Summers-Cyclopses!

now that I really think about it: as of Hussie’s print commentary, if there was ever a clear idea as to who exactly Terezi’s “blind prophets” were going to be, it’s gone now, and the remaining dregs spell out “it was probably just some psychics” - and while it’s absolutely true that there is a straightforward correlation drawn in Homestuck between blindness and prophecy… Terezi’s blind prophets, specifically, had to have been dragons, right? her whole life was shaped by the tutelage of this blind, fortune-telling creature; who else would have taught her the “numerals of the blind prophets”?
