Remember that pretty much the only people she ever had contact with before Meenahquest 2011 were her teammates. I'd probably be homicidal if I had to spend years around those dickheads. She probably assumes everyone who plays is a massive psychotic tool.

Also want a Homestuck rap album called Dave Strider and the Knights of the Turntable(Who are all also Dave) Feat. Meenah the Betta Boxer.

I think that scene where Cronus hit her with "anything I do to Mituna is nothing compared to what you did to him after the Scratch" and she seemed genuinely uncomfortable with the thought, that did a lot for her character. In fact after seeing all these walkarounds that scene where she wants to stab Roxy feels oddly out of place.

Roxy was very probably the first alien she had ever seen, and attacking unfamiliar armed aliens is sound adventuring strategy. Plus, out in the Furthest Ring anybody you encounter is usually a ghost or a dream and therefore impervious to lasting harm.

When Meenah first met John, she asked him if she was in Hell and if he and Roxy were demons. At that point she didn't even know what dream bubbles were or that they were a way to meet other living players. She stopped trying to murder people after Aranea showed up and explained what was going on.

I haven't seen any discussion of the most significant plot point from the update - in the third meenah quest, when dave was rapping he wasn't just writing any old rap. He was writing a rap to perform to lord english during combat

Dave is planning on attempting to have a rap-off with the main villain of the comic.

Yeah, it's worth noting that while most of the other teen-ancestor trolls in the dream bubbles have been there on a scale of decades to eons, Meenah just 'arrived' recently. That's probably why we play as her in the walkabouts- she's catching up with what's going on and learning what's the deal with a lot of things just as we are.

Rapping while fighting is the best thing. All we need now is for Dave to turn into a giant octopus and he'll be the Best Character.

Hardons feature as a prominent theme in Dave's latest effort. We know for a fact that Caliborn is discomfited by the mention of male human boners.

The final showdown between Dave and Lord English will be the most devastating rap-off in the history of paradox space.

I assume that Calliope's name is pronounced like the actual Greek muse, but I'm hoping that it's actually pronounced the other way so that Dave can rhyme it with dope.
