It doesn't matter since everyone's presumably going to come back to life anyway. Like... Now Gamzee's tied up he can't prototype the corpses, and once Jane is broken free from mind control, she can just God Tier Magic them all back to life again. Which might be why Gamzee was throwing the corpses into the sprites in the first place, so that couldn't happen.

My first thought was Spades Slick as the leader because the silhouette resembled him. Stupid, but it's something.

Equius is still the best theory. Jane makes horse jokes, being unidentifiable fits with his Void role, and he's funny.

Equius would need some serious rewriting to be the leader because as is his "style" is you must do what i say because you are inferior. oh youre telling me to gently caress off how lewd *sprays sweat everywhere*

I got the feeling that Equius was always "intended" to be a leader, (but ultimately meant to fail at doing so.) He was the first of his team into the medium, like Karkat, and an Heir, like John, and then there was the "maybe Karkat was TOO good of a leader and if we had actually fought more we'd have had more god-tiers." His ultimate failure was not overcoming his hemospectrum fixation. Which was ALSO why he let Aradia and then Karkat boss him around, so if he HAD overcome that he would've been able to leader it up.

Bobulus posted:B) Hussie does a 'psych' and the person who came along is another troll (Meenah, Equius, ????) Mention of sugar cubes clearly indicates Nepeta. For real though, it'll be John. I like how Jane's speech is worded to include reference to almost every character not already in that scene, but there's no way it won't be John (don't forget, he died like three years ago in this timeline)

Oh right, I forgot John would count for this.MarquiseMindfang posted:It doesn't matter since everyone's presumably going to come back to life anyway. I wouldn't count on it. The players seem pretty inured to death at this point, possibly a side-effect of their homeworlds being destroyed and interacting with dream-world afterlife filled with hundreds of equally-valid copies of everyone slowly getting erased by a skull monster. They don't really make a huge effort to save each other unless they're particularly close or significant - case in point, John kind of shrugging off Nepeta's corpse and sticking to Terezi's plan which only calls for saving Vriska (and even then more for Terezi's sake than hers). I fully expect they'll have the capacity to revive the dead trolls at some point, like a free-willed Jane, and it simply won't occur to anyone to do it. It's for the same reason that the John, Roxy and Davesprite that have died in the updated timeline won't get brought back even though they probably could be, it cuts down on narrative clutter even if it doesn't jive with their characters all that well.

Aggrandizing references to the person's character, mentions of him being returned with a "flourish of revisionism" that doesn't really make sense, references to this whole affair as a "horse race" along with other horse references. The leader can only be Andrew Hussie himself.

I noticed in the update art that Terezi is "shadowed" like the Condense, so we can't see her eyes. I wonder if the new Alpha-timeline Terezi doesn't let Araena heal her eyes.

On the one hand, the most leader-y leader in Homestuck is John. On the other hand, Vriska is a good candidate for someone that wasn't expected to be there, and she has to have been brought back to life for some reason, narratively speaking.

The only one I can think of who would be unexpected and also a good leader is Aradia, since she was the secret leader of Blue Team. Also she is the last known possessor of the wallet.

The leader is Gamzee. He used Equius's blood to block himself out of Calliope's book, hence there being no mention of him in those documents, and John's retcon shenanigans have now gamed things in such a way that he will switch sides. The Most Important Character In Homestuck.

Silly guess: Lots of horse related terminology; of course it'll be Hussie. More serious speculation: It's John. He's the natural leader of the original kids, and he's certainly unexpected 'cos in dead Jane's timeline he's been dead for three years.
