Homesuck: Vriska Rising

[Arcanum]

And the mystery of the 12 other trolls is revealed (sorta). Also it's funny how obvious this really was, what with Eridan talking about the exact same thing to Jade.

What the hell does "it smells brighter" mean?

The lights were already on, Gamzee doesn't kill with light, and why would Eridan be back?

Isn't Kanaya a sunlight vampire or something?

[Locke cole]

...I was about to suggest Vriska (Thief of light), but now I am too speculating that Kanaya is in the room.

And sparkling.

[Dracorion]

No more Tholluxth?

This comic is ruined forever.

Edit: It also gets to other people. After the first post I got like three immediate rep. So, I mean, I'm not trying to be mean or whatever anymore, but maybe it would be a good idea to try to cut back on that.

It's really not the post I make about Vriska, unless by that you mean "any post in which I state in any way that I have a problem with Vriska." Which you pretty clearly do, much the way you pretty clearly have a problem with anyone who dislikes Vriska, as demonstrated by the fairly large proportion of your posts in this thread that are you arguing about whatever the fuck involving Vriska.

Like I sat down and said hmmm maybe all I am doing in this thread is hating vriska non-stop all the time, maybe it really is just that my usage of "sociopath" is so wholly unconscionable as to justify this sort of shit and I went back and looked and... nope, I actually spend a lot of this time saying enthusiastic and postitive things about the story, and even Vriska when she does anything that isn't awful. And then people react to some incredibly awful thing Vriska does and there you are to start some huge ridiculous argument about it.

So basically what i'm saying is this deal where you suddenly start singling me out as the only person who has an opinion about Vriska that you have problems with was pretty much a huge load of shit, and if you're gonna continue having a problem with my posts about Vriska then, well, that's gonna be a problem for you I guess.

And whichever three of the endless anonymous legions of my hate-fanclub repped you for it.

On topic: Vriska is still awful, John gets progressively more awful the more he talks to her, the whole "it's just their culture" thing gets more awful every time it comes up.

Yes, Kanaya is a sunlight vampire...and I think there's a strong possibility of sparkling...which is not an easy thing to say. But it's neat to see Sollux being truly chill for a change.

And just to weigh in on the ongoing Vriska debate, like an idiot I guess.

...the whole "it's just their culture" thing gets more awful every time it comes up.

Unless you're going to say there are moral absolutes that transcend not only race and religion barriers but also separate dimensions I'm not sure it'd be fair to hold Vriska's culture against her if that's what you mean Fifth. Which is understandable, and a perfectly fine way of reasoning, but people are torn about lately without having the idea of a whole other race getting involved. Personally I'm still more inclined to say it's, Troll murder culture that is, pitiable in it's deplorableness; but the reigning opinion these days is who am I to judge. Ultimately it's a fictional setting that's bringing up that question though.

You know, it's funny. For being from a race of unrepentant murderer/conquerers, a surprising number of the 12 have strangely human opinions about murder.

...At least as it applies to people they know personally.

I begin to think that might be rather the point, they are all a bit weird for their kind

It's not John's fault he's so understanding. He took a lot of courses in xenoanthropology.
