What if when someone goes Grimdark, they get like a power up or something from their Alpha/Beta counterparts aspect? Like for Rose it was Void bc that’s Roxys aspect and for Jade it was Hope bc that’s Jakes aspect. Eridan didn’t really get one bc he and Cronus share an aspect.

Jade didn’t get a Hope-y Power Up though, she’s very much a Space-y wrecking ball, and Eridan didn’t go physically Grimdark, only thematically- He was corrupted by nothing at all but his own ideals.
