Caliborn is the best character. The music just keeps going. SwimmingSpider fucked around with this message at 09:52 on Nov 18, 2012 |

Well, that's one way to make a character more sympathetic to me...

I have a feeling this is where Gamzee starts living up to the whole "most important character in Homestuck" thing.

Yeah, one way of the other, there's no way Gams is out of the picture permanently. Can't say I wasn't pleasantly surprised, though.

I wonder how Gamzee even got there. Time travel is involved, sure, but he'd still have to physically move to the location. Which means that the meteor's stopping point may in fact be the planet that later comes to be inhabited by the Cherubs. But then he'd have had to go into their session with them.. How is he getting back out? Unless this is where Gamzee dies and it's the end of the road for him, even though earlier in the timeline we'll still see him around and doing things. vv

Holy poo poo that was perfect. Straight from, "what the hell is Gamzee doing here!? Again!?" to blank stares... back... and forth. And then, "barapparapparappa..." forever. I could not stop laughing.

For gently caress's sake, he has the God Tier wings this time. He's gonna live. Just die already, you weird honking fucker.

Calling it. 1. Cut away before Gamzee can regenerate because he totally went god tier and then 2. Thousands of pages later we find out that no, he didn't go god tier, he died in a really stupid loving way.

On re-watch, it looks like those wings might have been strapped on.

Out of all the lovely twists and plot bombs in 3 years+ of crazy story, this is the first time I dropped my jaw and just stared at an update. Gatdamn. This is the only known Gamzee death, right? Please let this be a fakeout. Please resurrect, mysterious conniving clown

It would be amazing if it was, and I'd be pretty happy... I suppose it could count as a justified death. We'll just have to see, as always.

The most important issue here is if Gamzee IS dead who's face will appear softly in the background to take him to Clown Valhalla?

A big flaming stink posted:http://imgur.com/MlQRo How do you know that's a strap for holding them on? I mean, it would make sense because he had to assemble his outfit, but his wings don't appear to be actually falling off, which they should be if their straps are disconnected.

Caliborn is the hero in Homestuck? WHAT A TWIST. Also, holy poo poo, even though I know the guy won't die, it sure is satisfying to see Gamzee get what's coming to him. FINALLY.

Or maybe another way to go Godtier is to assemble the outfit or something.

Well, the last time we saw him, Gamzee had some time boxes, so either this is the end of his personal timeline as an alive person, or he's god tier. No way this counts as Just, and I don't think Gamzee has a Heroic bone in his body. As for how he got there, it's simple. He had a time machine. How the hell were they gonna slow the meteor down once it arrived in the new session? Answer: they weren't. As it arrives, they bail, and it keeps going until it crashes on cherubland or wherever. Gamzee disembarks with them, travels back in time to tamper with Jane's kernelsprite plus miscellaneous other mischief, then returns to the moment that he got off the meteor, gets back on the meteor, and rides it to... glory. It's the only way that almost makes sense. Bongo Bill fucked around with this message at 12:37 on Nov 18, 2012 |

So, do we know what's the deal with Gamzee's dream-self? Has it been seen before or died yet? Because also: Dying is a hell of a way to sober up quick.

I guess a clown that gets murdered is still technically a murder clown, in that sense. We'll see if it sticks. (Though perhaps it'll be a while before we do, if the next page to go up doesn't involve John Wayne Gacy's ghostly visage seeing him off.) It seems his outfit was indeed fake, but, well, that needn't mean everything.

We didn't actually see that happen, though, which is what enabled the god tier question to even be a question.

My personal running entertaining theory is that Gamzee comes back, and it infuriates the hell out of Caliborn, leading him to destroy paradox space in an effort to kill him. Which is why he's the most important.
