Yes, and a bonus track on the first Alternia album named "The 13th hour" with the description "UU's theme" in the track description PDF that came with it.

Is that all it says? Just "UU's Theme?" Why has nobody been speculating about this before?!

Because the same PDF said it was based entirely on speculation and had no basis in canon other than the existence of the other 12 trolls.

EDIT: Looking back on it, the UU's Theme one just had a bunch of question marks. He made Equius's theme without basis.

That's all it says; the other tracks have some information on what Radiation was thinking when he made them, but the description for that one is just "???"

Radiation and other members of the music team are given only vague information when Hussie wants something made. I remember him saying that all he got for Umbral Ultimatum's description was "Jade: Enter" and was left to his own imagination for it.

There have been plenty of clues left behind for possibilities that have and have not actually seen the light of day, and sometimes those come unintentionally from sources outside Hussie. The art and music team members may think far ahead, and want to draw up speculation and discussion about a turn they want to see the story take, and Hussie may eventually decide to go that route - or that route may have been a very likely possibility all along. Or it may just stop with music and fanwork. We have yet to see evil green sun Vriska that Lexxy drew for Alterniabound - doesn't necessarily mean we ever will. But if she ever comes back in all black and with a green sun symbol, people will point to it as evidence of something they were predicting all along. Whether they are right or not is up to whether Hussie decides to clarify on his motivations for certain turns.

Hunh, y'know, I never really thought to interpret it that way myself. Interesting thought.

Incidentially that art is amazing and "Killed by 8R8K Spider!!!!!!!!" is an amazing track and possibly my favorite Vriska-themed music.

Except that Radiation doesn't know more about the plot than anyone else and certainly wouldn't have known about current developments 16 months ago.

Say, outside of the one time he dropped a bucket on Rose, has John ever engaged in any tricks? I think Jane is going to be really disappointed when 13-year-old Poppop proves to be no match for her old school japes.

He pranked the hell out of Kanaya with his subtle japery. He also pranks Karkat a bunch with time shenanigans in their earlier chatlogs. He also tricks Vriska into telling him her name!

He wore a Groucho Marx moustache and glasses (beagle aegis?) to confuse his dad. But other than that, not really.

eta: Ohhh, yeah. Had forgotten about the pranks on Karkat. Some of that stuff was pretty funny actually, like telling him in one log that friendship was definitely not an emotion, then calling it an emotion in their next conversation, knowing Karkat was moving in the opposite temporal direction.

He never got the best of Nannasprite in the Prankster's Gambit either. But that probably means we'll see Poppopsprite pranking Jane sooner or later.

I love this update schedule. I'm guessing Dane Strider, because Dane is the type of toolish name Dave'd give his sonbro.

I also hope this means that Bro will have completely unironic love for lame things

So IF there is a pattern to names, then Mom Lalonde's name starts with an R, but there aren't many 4-letter girl names that start with an R.

Bro Strider is the guy who keeps buying those loving pony porn ads.

Ruby would both be the right length, start with the right letter, and be related to Rose's name (they both can mean 'red')

Maybe Mom has a longer name, but goes by a 4-letter nickname. 'Rachel' could shorten to 'Rach', for example.

No, that's just a combination that could be used to make the book, not necessarily how it was made. Remember that alchemiters don't technically exist yet.

That said, Maplehoof was sent back with Dave on the meteor. Maybe in this universe she survived the crash landing!

So if in the regular universe, Bro landed with Cal and then became obsessed with puppets, which rubbed off on Dave, in the Scratched universe Dave landed with Maplehoof and became obsessed with horses, which rubbed off on Bro?

Idunn

That's it?
Remember, in the original session Dave was sent back in time with Maplehoof, but she died when the meteor landed.

Perhaps in this timeline, Maplehoof survived, and Dave grew up with an intense love of ponies that he then inflicted on Bro? Bonus points if he remembers his pre-scratch life and did it to spite Bro's stupid puppet fetish.

Dave was the baby who was drawn to Maplehoof in the lab.

Maybe post-scratch Bro only gets into the pony thing in imitation of his big bro Dave.

Also, Mom should totally be named Roxy Lalonde.
