No, but most of Hussie's foreshadowing is only retroactively so.

Also, I wonder if learning that Dirk is gay is going to change Dave's view of Bro?

In true Hussie fashion, I imagine Dave already knows his Bro is gay. It was never as big a Deal to Beta Dirk, as he wasn't living alone and had plenty of handsome men to interact with

Probably because mayonnaise is the least ironic condiment.

To be fair, I had no clue what mayo actually was at that age. It's around the same age people start telling you that honey is bee puke, cheese is mold, and millions of little insects apparently live in those mushrooms everyone eats. You learn to stop asking questions at some point.

My mother once asked me what goes in mayo, out of the blue.
"I dont know. Olive oil, salt, cream? I'm not sure really."
"Hmmmm." was all she said. Later, at dinner, I got to reap what I had sown. :negative:

I want to empty quote this forever. Karkat's cool except when he starts interacting with other people. He always has to hide his introspective side because that's not what he thinks a leader should be like and right now he's been doing it for so long it just comes naturally and oh gently caress I'm doing a character analysis about homestuck :negative:

It wouldn't really be worth the effort to try to explain eggs and vinegar to Karkat, anyway.

aNYWAY,
tHAT'S REALLY ALL THERE IS,
tO REPORT ON THE SUBJECT,
oF ME GETTING HURT,


This whole update is adolescent as all hell. Karkat being a loudmouth and completely wasting all the introspection he just got done doing (only to surely beat himself up about it later), Dave in a bad mood and unable to stay cool (whoever pointed out his speaking voice is different than his typing one is dead on, dude's much more defensive and cagey in person). This might end in a punch-up of middle-school proportions.

Should probably tag in Rose's point-scoring a moment ago, although they did get some business done first and life must be boring on an asteroid. Not really getting a good sense of Kanaya's part in this conversation, she feels kind of superflous at the moment (probably why she tried to leave).

Karkat really should have a one-on-one with Rose, she seems like the only person who would treat his inner thoughts seriously. But Rose is always around others that she gets along with like Kanaya and especially Dave, so it may never happen.

I get the feeling Rose was trying to do that when she offered the couch to Karkat.

Karkat is having none of that poo poo.

I don't really want either of them getting killed or anything because they are probably my two favorite characters, but this would be an awesome flash. Especially if the music for it was some kind of mashup of their themes.

Isn't the power of blood the ability to bring people back from the dead as vampires? Because he kissed kanaya and now she's a blood drinker, seems kinda open and shut to me
