Grrl Anachronism posted:I feel like, knowing Hussie, Vriska is way too obvious a choice to actually be the leader. In descending order of likelihood, I will hazard three wild guesses: Equius, Feferi, Dad Crocker. Another void or life player could be really useful and I don't think we've seen a confirmation for either of their deaths since John started meddling- with the changes to the timeline, Nepeta's death no longer necessarily implies Equius's. On the other hand, Vriska is one of the few characters who would actually be likely to kill Jane.

Burkion posted:Oh God Vriska is going to still have her crush on John isn't she. Well, from her perspective, he showed up and socked her in the jaw, like, minutes after she asked him on a date. Maybe she'll just take that as a "no" and move on.

This might be an insane suggestion, but... What if Gamzee is the leader??? Getting his mind broken might have been the snap/kick in the pants he needed, rather than the shooshpap we wanted SapientCorvid fucked around with this message at 06:55 on Jan 12, 2015 |

Zoe posted:Also does anyone remember what was in the wallet, cause I forgot there even was a wallet till just now. It originally just contained a ton of dad stuff, like hats, shoes, shaving cream, pipe tobacco, his Crosbytop, a car. You know, just the usual things you keep in a wallet. John took and crashed the car, CD used the shaving cream to kill Jade, the Tumor was in there briefly before Liv Tyler took it to go create the sun. The rest of that stuff would've stayed in there and we know that Aradia took out the hat and Crosbytop. The Crosbytop presumably stayed on Alternia because Spades Slick had it during the intermission. nerdbot posted:Doesn't WV have the wallet? Am I making that up. He had it until Clubs Deuce stole it from him. Here the whole path was this: Dad > John > WV > CD > Bec Noir > Lil' Cal > Aradia > ???

CD was initially sent after the wallet because the ring was in it right? What is important here is probably the ring and not Dad Egbert's Barbasol pallet or the damaged car. e. Or was that the other ring that made the PM White Noir? Eh I forget, nevermind

The thing about the Ring is that John does have it right now, because it was one of the items Terezi told him to get. So if she wanted the ring, she should have just told John to give the ring.

Kgummy posted:Karkat will probably end up knowing where the wallet went. Sollux may have taken the wallet with him when he took Cal's remains to Kanaya's house, and there's a line early on in Hivebent that mentions he switched moduses with Karkat, so he could just have it. Then again, that would be really pedantic pedantic pedantic detail to follow up on, and I have a feeling Hussie's gonna keep us hanging this for a while.

Speaking of rings, I always assumed that since the Void Ring is the unprototyped Black Queen's ring, the Life Ring is the unprototyped White Queen's ring from the same session and we just never saw how it ended up in Andrew's possession. But the *shudder* MSPA Wiki seems to think that it's definitely a different ring altogether and that the B2 session's White Queen still has her ring. Is there anything I've forgotten that actually shows this, or is it just a mystery?

I'm inclined to say you don't need to keep the Ring on to stay living, as Aranea didn't die until Condy snapped her neck after removing the Ring. e. I wonder how much corpse-hording the lovely clown managed to do in this iteration of events.

Righteously punching Vriska in the face only makes her like you more, as seen with Kanaya. Also, whoever said Dad Crocker was the leader of the expedition to free Jake and Roxy is the coolest and I am now sad it is not going to happen.  Edit: Also, although I know John is probably going to zap away before it can happen I am very interested in Vriska trying to justify her murder of Tavros and creation of Bec to everyone.

Since the Void Ring seemingly had no ending (it just disappeared during Trickster mode) and the Life Ring seemingly had no beginning (Hussie just had it out of nowhere), I pretty much inferred that they were the same loving ring. Like it does different stuff for the living and the dead, or something.

I am probably just misremembering John slipping that ring into the wallet (not Captcha) then. Too bad because then it really could be a prototyped mayor who is leading Of course I also assume the leader is Vriska because of Jane's luck turning comment

John you're three years older than these iterations of Terezi and Vriska, why aren't you taller than them? You're sixteen, come on, have a growth spurt already. Also yeah the way Hussie's dangling the mystery of who the leader is makes it sound like it won't be Vriska, since it's too obvious now and that's a classic Hussie fakeout. I mean, I guess it still could be, but it's good to consider alternatives. Reformed Gamzee makes sense now since there doesn't seem to be a need for the timeline to make sense so long as John's around to kick it into shape, and the life ring means all the trolls are possible returnees. I guess there could be other surviving characters who weren't suppose to survive that simply didn't make themselves known to Jane. This might be an interesting opportunity for the trolls who faded to irrelevance with Horrorstuck to maybe come back. Oh, I suppose Aradia or Sollux could make a surprise reappearance too. I wonder if this is the only time John will zip around the timeline making changes? If he goes back to change other things he runs the risk of undoing the changes he just made. It's probably why Terezi didn't give him a full walkthrough to fixing everything and saving everyone (beyond the fact that she wrote the plan in a hurry while dying) since the more changes, the harder they become to predict, not to mention actually walk us through in the story. Edit: Actually I find it a bit difficult to imagine one of the other trolls in charge, since Karkat's present and he was the leader. Hm... Spades Slick? The Mayor?

I dunno, it feels like pulling a fast one on us with the shadow won't be likely. Remember that the person drawing those panels is Shelby and Hussie usually makes a point of trying not to give away a lot to his collaborators so that they can be unspoiled. Telling Shelby to draw a picture of a living Vriska in the middle of a crowd would kind of give away the surprise.
