Amidst this hilarious set of updates, this is actually a little sad. What an exasperated leadership Karkat's has been.

Really, his presence has been ultimately very impotent and pointless. Really, I think the only thing Karkat has ever seemed to be enjoying was being an effective leader and killing monsters. Ergo his existence is kind of pointless now.

I kind of thought his point as ____ of Blood had something to do with his obsession over relationships and poo poo and basically using it to get people to follow him as leader, but looking at how quickly that poo poo fell apart, that may likely not be the case.

Karkat, the saddest troll. The least useful it ends up, the most disliked that are still alive, the one that probably hosed up the most ignoring Gamzee's culpability. And now he has three whole years to reflect on that fact, assuming his inability to keep everyone in line doesn't result in even more murders, just like everyone being left alone for a week-or-so before did.

If Karkat could shoosh a rampaging highblood into not-rampage, he wouldn't have many problems keeping the peace. Then again, Karkat's best friends doing that moirail thing with Gamzee so that's a bit of a special case isn't it...

Yes, but he did that a bit late, didn't he. Is he going to have to be literally on pap-shoosh patrol or something? He stopped paping everyone for a week and everything went to poo poo behind his back at once.

Speaking of which, he was awake (real-awake, not dream-awake) for entirety of the trolls' quest, wasn't he? That guy should just get some sleep already. It would probably do wonders for his attitude.

This should be a good three years. I can't decide if I want to see what John wrote and what the general reaction is after the bucket comes hurtling through, or if I just want Karkat to say an appropriate setup and get brained by the bucket and then cut away.

How was he in the shot where John threw the bucket through Jade, wasn't he looking really shocked? Was that because a Jade-shaped hole in the universe had just appeared with John on the other end, or was there something going on at that exact moment that shocked him into that expression?

All they need is a mop and a bucket, so John's got them covered halfway.

In a shocking twist, there will be a sprite that is actually prototyped by another non-prototyped sprite to make a spritesprite.

Do they even have an alchemizer? I figure if one was available the whole "Dark Carnival" incident would have been quietly sidestepped.
