Potions, and codpieces. It arrests the eyes. Is there anything other than the potions and codpiece and observing gamzee himself? There's no back arrow so I feel like I might be missing something.

Well, I guess we now know what ol' Gamzee was doing with all those bodies.

Each potion has a different "yes" and "no" text, though some of the "yes" ones are pretty bare-bones. Poor, naive Jane. Edit: No blood colors unaccounted for; this seems to indicate that he made it through the entire journey without killing anybody else. That is good.

Hah! For a split second I thought the music was from Earthworm Jim's hell level. (Actually that might be better suited here, considering the content of those 'potions' ) Re: the 'Gamzee went God Tier off-screen during the troll session' theory, I remember reading somewhere ages ago that there was a panel of him chilling with imps in his land and there being something vaguely quest bed-shaped in the background. Just looked like tents to me, but maybe it was intentional. Can't find the panel in question for the life of me, though. vvv Ahh yeah, that's the page. Didn't even think about what the troll quest beds looked like though. On second thought, I kind of prefer the idea that he drowned (or I guess in this case 'overdosed') in his own quest recuperacoon and just stumbled rear end-backwards into ascension. Far more fitting of his character, really. Blood Nightmaster fucked around with this message at 09:19 on Apr 17, 2012 |

Realization hit me almost immediately. I just kinda stared at the screen for several seconds before attempting to buy anything. All of the text in this update is solid gold, I recommend everybody say yes and no every potion, then check out that codpiece.

This is the closest I could find right now... there's a four-posted tent there, which needn't mean anything given that there are twinkly-tipped tentposts all over the place, but might. If there's a glow shape, it's well off the top of the screen. Dubious at best, really.

True, and Vriska's Quest Cocoon didn't have posts of any kind. vvv The music is "Elevatorstuck" from Volume 6, in case anyone's wondering. Hamiltonian Bicycle fucked around with this message at 09:06 on Apr 17, 2012 |

The soundtrack is really reminiscent of buy mode music for the Sims. Also, at "potions".

Andrew Hussie is now selling magic potions. These mystical, oddly red colored potions will grant you the astounding power to create art an an inhuman pace, and also fail about in an exaggerated manner. Priced at 500 dollars a liter, with only one for sale every three days. Act now!

Hmm, I wonder if Hussie could make a case for a small-run batch of these 'potions', enough to satiate the fans. In that they would all taste like over-caffeinated rear end. Which, when you think about it, makes all the sense in the world to taste like Troll blood.

Gamzee seems to have quite a few bottles of this stuff. Are they just really small bottles? Maybe he's been making more, somehow?

I don't really have any rationale for this but I imagine troll blood to taste a bit like corn syrup with food coloring--or maybe like one of those horrifically over-sweetened dollar store 'bug juice' affairs that are essentially liquid sugar. So basically the same thing I guess! Knowing this fanbase, though, I would honestly not be surprised if somebody has a troll blood 'recipe' up on the Betty Crocker webpage within the next week or so.

Skittle Vodka is probably a passable substitute. I guess you could make blue from those tropical-flavor ones, and probably mix the rest out of primaries.

...can I just take a second and say that how Hussie has handled the insane, terrifying popularity of this thing is really something? No mortal man should be able to withstand that much crazy fanatic and antifanatic. AH seems to handle it with the graceful trolling of someone who honestly gives no fucks. Despite it all, it's still his story, and he's doing exactly what he wants with it.

Well this update was horrifying. I don't think any of us were expecting that. So what are the chances Gamzee remains tantalizingly close to being relevant, without ever actually making it there, for the rest of the comic?

And yet he would still be more relevant than Nepeta or Equius ever was.

What the...Gamzee gives Jane like, 50 of the indigo potions. That's 50 bottles of Equius blood. I know trolls have lots of blood but that's just ludicrous. Is he...has he been alchemising more somehow?
