At some point Jagganoth must've decided that he's going to break time or die/stop existing trying. If he ends the loop for just himself, that's a minor win. So he's not going to back down even if it becomes clear that Aspected Chaos actually does have the means to end him.

Bussamove posted:Jaggs you're currently talking to three entities fused together in a way that shouldn't be possible immediately after one of them transformed her entire being I think maybe it was the other heirs that weren't quite true. Yeah. Devilskinned warriors were known to exist but not really work because the vast majority of time the devil and the person couldn't work together and one always consumed the other. But there's never been an Angel giving themselves flesh through sheer self-acceptance and actualization... while punching a goddamned demiurge. And there's REALLY never been a devil, an angel, and a person working in unison as one big voltron of ladies. Jaggs is reading from the wrong script. Do we think that Auntie Maya got onto the floating island before it took off, or is she still down below?

I appreciate the Gunnery Chief's sentiment, but space is big and expanding, so they're probably wrong.

habeasdorkus posted:Jaggs is reading from the wrong script. I suppose really Jaggs assuming anything that doesn’t fit his narrative of how things are being wrong is the perfect example of the extreme hubris every single drat one of these idiot gods has shown at one time or another. Refusing to change is sort of their defining characteristic as a group. As for Maya, she’ll show up to give a speech about Incubus being a poor swordsman if he thinks he actually needs a sword before starting to Cut.

Thank you. Basically my first thought upon reading the latest page. Well, more "Zoss gave her the key how is she NOT the true heir by definition you moron" but same spirit. Incidentally, I still laugh at how they managed the Voltron. White Chain: "Hold on do we even know how to do that?" AlliCio: "No, who cares, get in the fusion"

Incubus needs to just get a sharp rock or hope Maya stowed away on the stage select screen and brought one for him. Although if she did bring a sword for him it's for the express purpose of shoving it down his throat.

I mean, tbf Jaggs has been working towards his plan for countless thousands of years, and who knows how many times he's groundhog dayed this chain of events and never seen this happen. It's probably going to take a bit of time (and possibly getting his butt kicked for the first time ever) for him to come around.

I wonder based on Jagg's wording here how exactly the reset goes down--specifically, the implications of "left to clean up," and what exactly the "it" that ends when the heir ascends to the throne is. He also described his role earlier as "the dust man of [Metatron's] failures" and "snuffer of his illusions." Is Jagg's prescribed role literally going around Langolier-style erasing the 'surplus' reality after the reset?

Nobody is focusing on the important issue here. With every passing page, with every word spoken, I become increasingly certain. Jagganoth Is a loving nerd. 'Your supposition is highly accurate' smdh. We just need to find the Locker of Kings to shove him in and we're gucci.

Maybe Allison isn't the heir but Aspected Chaos is? So Jaggs is right and wrong given that context at the time.
