So... uhhh...

The "dangerous space criminal" was probably Saturday.

Why else would he have landed directly on her with his perfect calibration?

Now he's going to go to Caketown Castle, get stomped by Cordelia, and Saturday will have to thanks Nautilus and Cucumber for saving her from space prison.

Coming up is going to be the best dialog ever because I love Big Double Night and Cuco.

Yeah that's how I'm reading it too.

I am betting Noisemaster is utterly, profoundly sick of this poo poo.

He needs to be our Geno :haw:

There are two ways this can go:

"I am also sick of this poo poo and am using my Space Sound Lazor Cannon to destroy the Nightmare Knight so I can be the Number One."

or

"I am also sick of this poo poo but you need my power/essence/icon in order to properly free the Nightmare Knight. Let's have a boss battle anyways!"

And I highly doubt we will get any of the Disaster Master's as party members. This is looking like a 4 man team.

Maybe Nautilus will get a cool new summon? I think that is her role.

He wants to take over the world, not take over a pile of rubble.

This seems a lot more viable, but maybe not far enough.

The Nightmare Knight seems to be against harming innocents. He shoo's off Tomato from harassing Parfait, and I could see him not wanting an entire capital and it's inhabitants vaporized. Just causing general destruction and unrest ala Splashmaster is fine. All he did was smash some buny hows. Is there an official death count added to that?

Noisemaster on the other hand is breaking the cycle by pulling the gloves off. He's so sick of this that he is willing to kill to break himself out of the endless grind. He wants to play for keeps, but the Nightmare Knight is unwilling to allow that to happen. He has a weird code or sense of honour, and it does not allow wanton murder.

I really am looking forward to the breaking of the team. I think I might be a horrible person.

There will be no breaking of the team. Cucumber will have to be more discrete in his Nightmare Knight dealings, but Almond is pretty easily distracted. Carrot is a buffoon, but is good and harmless and will do as he is told. Nautilus might also be strictly anti-Nightmare, but she can be swayed with some kind words.

Cucumber needs to be smart about this, which he is. It might take 5 more worlds, but our precious little Nightmare Squire will take his rightful place at his master and friends side and they will destroy the Dream Oracle and bring about true peace to the world of Dreamside before phasing off into the endless darkness to learn true power.

It took me 1 minute to re-find "Dreamside" and 5 more minutes to stop re-reading the whole comic from the beginning.

It probably has some kind of barrier around it that prevents villians from taking it.

This is also probably why Nautilus is "a threat" to Rosemaster's plan. As someone who has preserved knowledge from ancient times, she would know what the trophy does, and why it would be weird for a fashion mogul to want it.

Interesting ask from a while ago:

"Ask.fm posted:

If Noisemaster eats the Hocus Crocus does that just mean twice as dead?
i will try to answer this question genuinely. if noisemaster used the 2-year hocus crocus it would probably put him somewhere between rosemaster as she is now and the crystal kingdom's DM in terms of power. mutemaster would probably surpass the crystal kingdom DM. incidentally, if splashmaster used it, it wouldn't help him. he can't figure out how to use magic anyway.

So in terms of power,

7. Splashmaster
6. Noisemaster
5. Mutemaster
4. Rosemaster
3. Crystal Kingdom DM
2. Glitchmaster
1. Nightmare Knight

With it being roughly a three ranking increase for using the Hocus Crocus. So Rosemaster is either as powerful, or more powerful that Glitchmaster right now.

WELP. Ignore me. I'm an idiot and an rear end in a top hat.

I mostly posted that because I was wondering if Rosemasterx2 was actually an equal to Glitchmaster, or if Cucumer and Carrot would run on the Glitch master saying "You disappoint me... Thornmaster." while formatting her.

And Gigi posted another ask that was from before this page that confirms any kind of power ranking system is basically DBZ levels of meaningless.

It will probably be a combo take down from Our Four Heroes, Peridot, Caboodle, and the Guardener.

Also the Hocus Crocus might actually be embedded/growing from her hand?

ALSO I love how the change from thorns to roses basically is no change whatsoever. She's exactly the same.

Tulul posted:

I assume she's using "heroes" in the same way you would include Luigi with Mario. You know, gold star for effort.

Anyway I really doubt we'll ever get a "Almond is the hero" moment because the whole point of the comic is that Almond is wrong. 99 other people tried to solve this problem by hitting it with swords and they all completely failed. Cucumber's the real hero (who will presumably break the cycle) because he's able to empathize with others and talk things out instead of immediately jumping to stabbing.

Does this count?

Gigi has repeated stated that she wants Cucumber Quest to be all ages so I'm 100% positive we are not going to have Rosemaster's long delicate fingers dripping with blood.

I'm pretty sure Carrot will do SOMETHING, even if it isn't really... meaningful? Maybe just acting as a decoy for even 10 seconds will let Almond cut herself free.

I am predicting that the Guardener will show up to try and even the scales. Maybe his Guardlings will be able to defend against status effects, allowing the whole team to be awake and contribute?

I think that's what's bothering me about this scene. I don't want to sound petty, but... to me, Rosemaster kind of seems like the author's pet character at this point. She's beautiful, smart, strong, secretly benevolent, and she only commits evil acts because she's selfless and cares about NK. Hell, she's literally being bathed in angelic white light right now. It feels like I'm being beaten over the head with how absolutely wonderful she is.

I'm reading this post and just... boggling.

Of course this is the situation.

This is probably the situation for everyone.

Rosemaster owns, and everyone knows it.

EDIT: And she's dying in like... ten pages? maybe? so don't worry too much about her constantly stealing/hogging the spotlight.
