I don't like considering the clock to be particularly special other than an outside indicator because not only has it been crowbarred into insignificance timeline-wise, but the very universe it resides in was destroyed. So, then, what of our remaining god tiers? Will they now simply die because they no longer have this clock protecting them? Or the inverse, they can't die now no matter what? Why in the world does the First Guardian of an entirely separate universe have a device that apparently decides the fate of all god tiers? I definitely believe this the case:

"If not, then the destruction of the clock becomes more a violent gesture of punctuation to accompany this "divine ruling", like nails being driven into a coffin. Or, like a tolling bell. It's jarring, sudden, and carries finality."

E: Also how in the hell would Slick know it was deciding Vriska's fate? And that he was going to kill her with it??? That's a pretty big reach, even for Hussie.

Who is to say that the clock we saw for John was that same clock in DS's house? Who is to say the clock in the troll's universe no longer exists? We ourselves saw that a part of DS's mansion continues to exist even though the troll universe ended.

And Slick wouldn't know. He just hates clocks. There was a clock there and he broke it. It was a mere coincidence.

So bro has both a robot version of himself and an AI version of himself. The autostrider has emotions but no body, and the robot probably has a body but no emotions. Seems pretty obvious that the two are gonna be fused together to make a completely self aware robotic bro duplicate.

Robot gets first tied prototyped, autoresponder gets second tiered prototyped. Jake has to deal with him as his guide the rest of the quest.

Also, I'm also hoping for a autobrocorpsesprite, cos that would just take this comic to a whole new level of awesome!

This would be a hilarious callback to the time after Jade: Enter where people were hoping for Bro's corpse to get secondary prototyped with Bec, which spawned some amusing and sometimes surprisingly cool fanart.

That said, I only want big Bro prototyped if the other prototyping is something as equally silly, like Lil' Cal or a Lusus.

Other than that, I'm hoping for the Robo Bro and Auto Responder double prototyping. It'd be a good way to consolidate two interesting concepts into one character.

Either that, or prototyping both Sawtooth and Squarewave and somehow having a two-headed rapping robot sprite.

Too much! Think it was something like $13 for the cheapest option. So if you are thinking about it, be prepared to spend some serious dosh (depending on what the exchange rate is like of course)

1:10-3:05: Harper has no recollection of this time. Aliens?
So some of the books have shipped out and the author notes are as amazing as I expected.

That's pretty crazy. I wonder if that's what took up his time during that three month hiatus. You know, in between bouts of animating a 14 minute long Flash animation. Looking forward to mine as soon as he's done sketching in it (that's right, I'm part of the reason why he's had to slow down, deal with it :colbert:)
