If either of those possibilities happen I will cry out in agony.

EDIT: Although if Vamp!Kanaya decides to take a bite of Vriska in a seductive manner and make her life miserable, I guess I could settle for that, that wouldn't bother me much.

...If everyone loved Vriska as much as he did, his angry meta moment with his avatar "possessed by Vriska" while enjoying a Neverending Story moment probably never would have happened.

Midway through this conversation Eridan will shoot Vriska in the back with his science wand, instantly killing her, then a Nic Cage x Vriska montage will play as John mourns her death.

I wasn't pointing to the ground or lack thereof so much as I was pointing to her being perfectly conscious and in a state of fear. She wasn't knocked out or anything of the sort.

Somehow I feel that the sudden shift of focus back onto Vriska, who is now suddenly less of a psychotic bitch, is the start of a buildup to Vriska vs Gamzee.

Vriska will try to gank Gamzee's luck, but then this will happen.

Also I love this chat log. Not because it shows Vriska regretting murdering Tavros, or because of John's understandable (and even predictable) reaction to her confession. No I love this log because it gives a perfectly clear look at how troll society really is, and just how different most of the trolls really are from the norm of their society.

I always loved Vriska and today's update didn't change that..
That is all.

You don't have to worry about that, John will obviously end up with Aradia.
I say this even though they have never had a single conversation in the entire story because, oh my gosh you guys, they have the same laptop! OTP.

Also they're both god tiers.
Is it perfect or is it perfect, y/y

It's really odd. I really don't know what to think of Vriksa after this update. It'd certainly be simple to keep hating her with a passion, as I have for so much of the comic, but that's kind of an irresponsible route to go down, as she's being shown to be something other than just a one-note murderous 8itch.

Probably the oddest part of her little feelings jam with John here is that killing Tavros isn't what's got her freaked out the most. She's freaked because she's freaked about killing Tavros, and that isn't supposed to happen.

...this was a lot easier when Vriska had no remotely redeeming qualities.

Sudden realization!

Feeling Jam Sessions lead to death! Feferi and Kanaya died after they talked about Sollux's feelings. Sollux was spared because he didn't really want to talk about his feelings, and was only knocked out (and possible blinded). Also Kanaya was revived because she was only partially involved in the Feeling Jam Session. Then Equius (and most likely Nepeta too) were killed after their Feeling Jam Session. Next is Vriska!! And John is immune because he is a human and not a troll. It all makes sense now!

/crazy theory

Alright put up your bets
In the next update when we finally see Vriska's eyes, will she be:

* Crying so hard that it stains the floor blue
* Have a just as keikaku glint in her eyes
