If his lusus could see him now I imagine it would be quite upset.

Meanwhile with Aradia, who has an even more fucked up special case than Sollux, had a specific method for attaining god-tier, and it was only by fulfilling what was required for the alpha time line to progress that she could attain god-tier, which is in line with her role as the Maid of Time.

As far as we are aware, Aradia and Sollux are the only special cases, and the other players must follow the standard scenario for reaching god-tier, which is basically impossible because all of their dream-selves are dead now.

I honestly wonder how much time shenanigans has to do with Aradia and Sollux's dream-selves situation. It really just seems to me to just be related to their own special natures. Like, obviously Aradia was dead, but she wasn't "dead-dead" at the beginning of the game, and she also didn't sleep, presumably being a ghost and all, so her set-up just seems like something that could reasonably result from her status.

Sollux? man I just have no idea. If I had to hazard a guess, though I'd think it has to something to do with his ability to see the future.

People who awake on Prospit/Derse before starting sgrub/sburb can see the future in the clouds, like Jade. But Sollux could already see the future, due to vision two-fold, probably due to his already having two dream-selves, essentially doubling up on Prospitian/Dersite clairvoyance and allowing him to have the visions/hear the voices while awake. Basically either he has vision twofold because he has two dream-selves, or he has two dream-selves because he has vision two-fold.

You know, the hemospectrum covers all the colours of pool balls pretty good...

I mean, obviously it would, being a full spectrum, but you get the idea.

They did. Terezi in particular has holo-projecting Pyrope glasses. I don't know why the trolls don't keep this sort of thing active at all times, god knows shit goes down often enough with them.

They were, for reasons Karkat can't fathom, compelled to store the entirety of their respective inventories within the chests scattered around the meteor.

We saw Eridan using one an update ago and apparently Gamzee is wearing one right now, how else would he make Karkat shit his pants without being on the other side of the room if he hadn't one?

Althought if he were on the other side of the room it might've been ever more terrifying...

Maybe the Trolls pulled a Videogame Sequel and discarded most of their cool equipment for no logical reason.

edit: oh right, the chests.
