I'm gonna go with Bec Noir filling the top corner and giving us a trifecta of Jacks.

Also, what happened to the Jack from Caliborns session? Is that guy still around? I'm losing track of Jacks.

He should still be around somewhere, but Prospit and Derse don't have a frog to fight over in that session and I don't think Caliborn sleeps, so he hasn't had a reason to show up.

The Jack from Caliborn's session is the bottom left Jack; imprisonsed, chipped tooth, got goods from Gamzee while in a Prospit prison which included a Lil Cal, and Caliborn possessed him using Cal as a medium.

e: maybe not.

Nope that's post-scratch Jack from the kids' session.

No, that's the Jack from the Alpha session. He got imprisioned after the White Queen hit him with the White King's staff while he was trying to assassinate Jane's dreamself a second time.

Caliborn-session Jack assassinated Calliope's dreamself and we haven't seen him since.

Oh my god yes. Stab-bro reunion? Needs to happen. Bonus points if Walk Stab Walk plays.

Seriously though, it looks like the Alpha session is going to become a ridiculous all-out clusterfuck of every single character ever. This is gonna own.

The fact that we are now guaranteed to have three Jacks is wonderful. :allears:

The only question remaining is what happened to the UU-session Jack...

Out of curiosity, does anyone have a link to that one Homestuck clone where every character was Jack Noir?

So, one Jack has billiard ball eyes, another has the Cuestaff and a collection of Felt minions, and a third is a terrible demon bent on destruction. We've already gotten quite a bit of confusion out of the latter, back in Act 5; I'll be disappointed if we don't get at least some momentary misapprehensions from the other Jacks.

(Bonus if they confuse each-other for Lord English, somehow.)

It also has the advantage of having a living and ideally-dressed DD and CD, if there isn't some way to get the rest of the original Midnight Crew together again. (RIP Hegemonic Brute, your head and neck's parting is always far too soon.)

Look on the bright side, this may mean that when Gamzee dies it'll be to something even funnier than that.
