What you're saying is that Homestuck should have been aborted before it even began.

Homestuck is vaguely inspired by Earthbound and Earthbound ends with a time-travel abortion. It's gonna happen.

Terezie is the best. Also a shipper.

Also if she can come up with a plan to save herself, and Roxy saves HERSELF, and John obviously will be fine, we can retcon this entire buttfuck of a time line without losing anything important.

I am really excited to finally see some denizens but I am almost expecting the encounter to occur offscreen.

Also, i'm now wondering what will happen with Jade and Calliope once John retcons existence, if he goes back before Jade dies there conversation would never have happened. Which would be kind of lame.

I'm assuming dream bubble ghostland and/or Calliope's weird voidey hiding spot probably aren't affected in the same manner by John's retcon ability that the regular-rear end Medium is.

Terezi is a lot better after being beaten within an inch of her life. More characters should get that treatment, IMO.

They tried but most just got beaten to death instead. It's a very delicate balance that is difficult to maintain.

with the explicit comparison to the scratch I actually suspect this is saying all the current dead are going to stay in the dreambubbles, just like meenah and co are hanging out in the dreambubbles despite the troll ancestors (that is to say, meenah and co) bumbling about and alternia.

Actually, I think you might be right. Roxy might be able to Void herself out of the timeline, but Terezi's better off dying and hoping some weird dream bubble ghost poo poo will happen to help her out of this mess. Or at the very least she might just want to be with Karkat in the afterlife for however long it lasts rather than get erased when John changes the timeline.

I wonder if John has the guts to kill Terezi, if she asks and it's the best thing for her in the situation? He's a Hope Springs Eternal type of guy but it's still a pretty steep request.

Also Terezi taking on Karkat's mantle of shoutmaster in his absence is delightful.

If that's actually an accidental preview of some time-travel shenanigans, that'd make for an interesting moment for John to pop in and start changing poo poo, since it's right as Condy shows up and the shitstorm gets underway. A [S]Game Over Take 2 could be in the works.

wheres the jester, I could do with some pointless nonsense right about now

This update was great and all, but I don't approve of people encouraging John not to think. He may suck at it, but that's exactly why he needs to do more of that.

Also, I wonder why did Terezi ask him to stop as he was about to take off?

Its more likely that they'd get meenah instead. She's literally the Theif of Life, and she's already said to john that she will be compelled to steal someone else's chance at resurrection due to the nature of her class, despite the fact that she actively doesn't want to come back to life and is happy as a ghost.

lmao imagine if all the living characters were dying and the one shot at resurrection was wasted on someone who didnt want to come back to life.

They are currently in the process of performing shenanigans to revive everyone, so this seems unnecessary.
