I was under the impression that Trollian/Pesterchum/Gift of Gab just translated what people were saying and that trolls and cherubim didn't speak English. Maybe I made that up in my mind.

I always did wonder how Kanaya figured out something like that wand, and its duality to the pistol makes me more curious still.

Where have I heard the phrase "your wand is out of bullets"? Or is it just reminding me of "your key is out of bullets"?

Let me take a guess. uu's strife specibus is canekind. That would be heavy handed and match up with LE. edit: and the cane turns into a machine gun.

So, any thoughts as to why Calliope refers to her White Magnum as a "dualing weapon"? Just a typo, or something more? (I am bad at theorycrafting)

It relates to the weapon's dual nature as a wand and as a gun, and also presumably it is also Calmasis's weapon as well, given that they share an inventory, so they probably share a strife specibus in some way as well.

Completely silly thought: What if the transition between UU and uu makes him totally hulk-out, the way Doc Scratch became Lord English. That's why his art is so poo poo: Imagine the Hulk trying to use a pencil.tinaun posted:Has it been explained exactly what a juju is? I know uu said cal was one. We haven't been given an exact definition, but the two characteristics we've been told are: - Follows a weird path through spacetime, such that it's hard to determine the origin or fate of the object. - Carries some sort of inherent "self" (like a soul or a magic or whatever) that can't be duplicated, only transferred. So if the object is duplicated, only one of the two versions will be the "alive" one.

The way I'm envisioning the switch is that UU gets tired, lies down on the bed, hooks up the UU-labeled chain to her other leg, and goes to sleep. uu wakes up, takes off the uu-labeled chain, and walks to the right side of the room. Well then, how about that? Seems you were right.

From the looks of it, uu and UU sharing a body is probably confirmed. uu currently isn't wearing his, and he's asleep. Calliope mentioned that she sleeps with that one on. Also, it looks like the symbols on the shackles refer to which person can unlock them. I did wonder why UU wore the one with uu's symbol on it.

I always figured it referred first to Kanaya's vampirism and then Doc Scratch's transformation.

Considering how often Karkat kept finding bodies to turn his back on(Kanaya, Feferi, maybe Sollux sort of counted as a prone unconscious form.. Then Vriska, Sollux again, and WV, I figured it was Doc Scratch messing with him. He pretty much said "I need to stop turning my backs on the bodies!" when Gamzee made off with the pair of roof corpses. And then Scratch was probably also messing with the audience a little bit, in regards to the other bodies in the story, including his own. And perhaps there will be even more later on, expanding the all-encompassing gag. tldr; the corpse pile doesnt stop from getting taller.
