Twitter reminded me that Roxy was able to see dead pre-scratch Dave, etc, when she was traveling through the dreambubbles. In theory there's no reason this couldn't be a pre-scratch Mindfang from a doomed timeline? We don't really know anything about pre-scratch Sufferer, so she could be wearing that symbol for a variety of reasons. Maybe I am the only one that did not get all this immediately. But if we're going to be meeting dead pre-scratch trolls that is basically twelve new characters, so, hopefully I am wrong. Edit: Actually presumably she'd be wearing that symbol for pre-scratch Karkat instead of the Sufferer. So, with pre-scratch Ancestors-as-kids and trolls-as-Ancestors that's more like 24 new characters. Everett False fucked around with this message at 14:58 on Feb 19, 2012 |

That said, I don't expect any bubbles got erased. I guess dead Dave is most likely just still hanging out having lovely rapoffs with Tavros instead of doing anything we particularly need to see.

I thought Mindfang was implied to have sympathies for the Sufferer in her diary. This doesn't seem that surprising to me.

Midnight Raider posted:That was my theory, but everyone was quick to dismiss the fact that her hairstyle bears an interesting resemblance to the shape of John's.. Hussie has done much stranger things than a bit of simple future ectobiology. Obviously a slightly different hairstyle is evidence that John and Vriska somehow have aready-dead troll babies and  Oh wait it means nothing.

Hanky Church posted:Wow, apparently I've been way off this entire time. I thought Echidna's deal/Scratches just flipped ancestor/kids, so I've been working under the assumption that they've all just switched ancestor/kids positions three times as Original (John/Karkat crews as ancestors vs. Jane/Sufferer as kids) Troll Scratch (The setup for Acts 1-5) and then Human Scratch (Back to original set up, with John/Karkat groups as ancestors and Jane/Sufferer as kids). The thing is this actually makes a bit of sense. Not a lot of sense since I don't think the Scratch is a toggle that switches between two universal instances, but if, like some people worry might be the case, the universe the kids make is actually A1, then it's possible. The way UU talks about the kids and the game implies pretty heavily she's in the universe that they'll create. But the thing is, they know about the kids' adventures and they know about the game, it seems to be an ingrained part of their cosmology. The trolls of A1 were terrible at the game and had to scratch it, but having this wealth of information doesn't really seem like a set-up for failure. I think UU is in a completely different universe from the others so far, even if it does seem a bit odd to see the end of the universe the kids haven't even created yet. As for Li'l Mindfang? Regy Rusty posted:I'm not even worrying about this. It's not something we're supposed to be able to figure out now, so I'm just gonna sit back and wait till we have more information. Yeah. I'm gonna subscribe to this theory. The same thing I did with UU until we found out a bit more!

So I know everyone's leaning toward some combination of Mindfang/Pre-Scratch Mindfang/Aged-Up Dead Vriska but here's a thought: What if this is the Beta Vriska that went up against Jack Noir? We never found out what happened to her, and three years of doomed-ness could plausibly bring about an interest in fashio okay no this is stupid.Starmaker posted:I think UU is in a completely different universe from the others so far, even if it does seem a bit odd to see the end of the universe the kids haven't even created yet. Up until now I figured she was in the universe the post-scratch kids help to create (hence why she reveres them as gods and stuff), but with the advent of this Maybe Possibly Mindfang thing I really don't know anymore. I will say though, if she is pre-scratch Mindfang then I am definitely looking forward to seeing the bizarro versions of the other ancestors. It's something fun to think about amongst all the jack-poo poo knowing, anyway. Just imagine how laid-back their Karkat is

It is awfully convenient how many new trolls are showing up, considering how few are left. I don't mean that in a bad way! There just might be some crazy troll "reunion" of sorts in the works. I hope before the comic is over Karkat meets the Condesce face-to-face, that would be...symbolic on so many levels.

When Vriska was telling John about how she found Mindfang's journal, she said each caste has a huge alphabet of symbols. She said when another troll has the same sign as you, it indicates you have a special connection with them. creationist believer fucked around with this message at 17:14 on Feb 19, 2012 |

The volcano has actually been in that same state of sort-of bubbling over since Jake first left the forest (http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=006148), so who knows if it's significant.

Vriska has definitely always had some degree of fangs, even in her sprite. These do appear to be a bit more prominent I suppose though.

Really hard to tell who this is, but considering how many potential relations and love stories float around the characters of Vriska and Jake, the idea of the two of them having some sort of connection is pretty funny. Also yeah, Jake's blue lady fetish basically obliged him to run into Vriska at some point. The trolls are uniformly grey regardless of blood colour, though, so maybe her being a blue troll doesn't really mean much?

That and... why would you age as a ghost? Seems more like being a ghost in this universe means you're stuck in a snapshot version of yourself when you died, but since you can still interact with other [dead] people, well, who knows.

I just assumed that if it was Vriska, she'd still have her eyepatch and roboarm, even if she could get older. I guess that's probably a silly assumption on my part, but it just doesn't seem like Vriska to me.

My crazy theory is that this is UU`s brother.While UU has long horns and likes to write fanfics her brother has short or no horns and cosplays. One troll for Derse and the other for Prospit. UU watches skaia clouds while her brother communes with horrorterrors and does "Blackout" stuff. Both would know allot of details about the figures of legend and would know how to meddle with them for whatever reasons. It rhymes like poetry.
