This is, of course, the one and only time in the entire comic where these details are, in fact, completely insignificant.

Cyrai posted:I'm quite possibly wrong, but I've always had the feeling that that's been redacted, more or less. At least in the link, Vriska just barely mentions there being more than one, and aside from maybe the other update, everybody seems to treat God Tier as a single, ultimate upgrade. It's possible that nobody mentions the multiple levels because hardly anbyody gets to God Tier, but I think Hussie might have abandoned that barely mentioned idea Additionally this tells us that Homestuck has a lovely experience system.

Given how much stick Vriska got from other trolls for being a murderous backstabber, it'd be really weird if everyone was cool with Gamzee now. I mean, Christ, at least she never went around redecorating the joint in a Silent Hill body parts motif.

Jazu posted:There's an interesting sort of parallel. When she was bleeding to death, when it was really important, Tavros couldn't kill Vriska. And when everyone's lives depended on it, Vriska couldn't NOT kill Jack. You get to see it, and Vriska pulls this poo poo-eating grin right after every other troll gets killed off, just because she has a fancy suit and a sword. And the narration almost takes her side, weirdly. Scratch brings up whether or not she'd win. Like it matters. Also Terezi didn't do her whole "wooo i'm a seer i know alllll wooooOOOOoo" case much good when she started the conversation with a bunch of real dumb wrong dumb accusations. e. Thirdly its hard to view Vriska as having a hubristic fall when as far as she's concerned her only mistake was thinking that Terezi didn't have the stones to kill someone herself. If you want real, harmatia-style selfownage, Vriska in the beta timeline got heaps of that. paranoid randroid fucked around with this message at 10:44 on Dec 7, 2011 |

Except that revelation is an important aspect of the classical conceptualization of harmatia. Saying that you can have a hubristic arc without the character realizing the significance of events is like saying you can have classical Greek culture without rampant misogyny and atavism. And Terezi's far from the objective arbiter that people seem to be wanting to read her as. paranoid randroid fucked around with this message at 11:27 on Dec 7, 2011 |

Maybe we're using different understandings of harmatia, which is likely because Artistotle changes the definition of words frequently and largely without warning as fancy strikes him, but I... don't think you can say harmatia is just for the audience's benefit. It's a central, defining flaw for a character. Its just not very satisfying, to me at least, to cash in this fatal flaw and then immediately negate everything while handwaving it off. Which is incidentally why I think that beta-timeline Vriska has a role to play in the story.

Downfall is not a one-to-one match with punishment. There's only real 100% correlation if you subscribe to some weird Greco-roman belief system where fortune is a Real Person That Exists and lives on a mountain in the balkans. But now I'm just doing semantic bickering to cover for the fact that its 3:30 and I can hardly think straight. Lemme just leave off by saying a think a lot of your reasoning depends on Vriska being definitely "evil" and Terezi being unambiguously objective and "good", both being things we've been shown as untrue.

Oh okay. It just occurred to me that the real problem here is that I'm bad at parsing tonight, because I think I might be really resolutely trying to convince you of something you're already saying. "being evil" and "doing evil" mean different things, ahurr. Although, because I can't stop loving posting, I'd argue while we're talking about tragic flaws here, that the coinflip debacle was as much an outgrowth of Terezi's flaws as Vriska's. e. haha I'm putting seriously thought into cartoon thirteen year olds. truly the owned one was me all along. paranoid randroid fucked around with this message at 13:19 on Dec 7, 2011 |
