Psh. Kanaya is fast and strong enough to Ro-sham-bo Gamzee, cold clock Vriska, and rip magically super charged Eridan in half all before anyone can react with her sparklepire powers.

Yeah, he still does. It's been relatively quiet on Derse's moon.

Personal thoughts on Vriska: She's still done horrible stuff, and I don't think I'll ever quite forgive her for crippling Tavros (or killing him, but her crippling him is what initially instilled a fiery hatred for her in me, before I even knew her name). However, relatively recent developments about how thoroughly she tried to be Mindfang have made me switch from abject hatred to feelings of... well, not quite sympathy, more like pity. Her trying to follow that journal, and being disappointed by real life time and again, have thoroughly screwed up her childhood and the lives of everyone around her. I won't go in depth. Suffice it to say that I can imagine she'd probably have been less horrible if she hadn't been using that damn journal like a Gamefaqs walkthrough for Real Life.

And I can't help but smile a bit at her wanting to be responsible for everything involving Jack, but not wanting to be responsible for John finding out about his dad. Even though, by her logic, she's kindasorta partially paradoxically responsible for his dad's death in the first place.

Of course, if she had told him, he might not have suffered a mildly annoying death.

Also, she turned out to be the least despicable murderer on the asteroid after Eridan and Gamzee reared their homicidal heads.

Hey Snake, I know you know first impressions aren't always right. You complain Hussie is constantly insisting that you give Vriska another chance, but have you thought about giving her another chance?

*guilt-tripping puppy eyes*

So anyway I'm with the theory that crowbaring the clock cancels the special conditions that make it possible for our godly thief to die. Which could mean that she can't die at all or that she could die from anything. The latter seems much more likely to me, but I'm mostly going by an instinctual grasp of physics that I imagine extends to the metaphysics of the comic. Which I imagine I understand.

And of course everyone can be resurrected seemingly in a myriad of ways. Kind of reminds me of someone saying the trouble with the game is seeing through the myriad of various instructions, guides, walkthroughs and cheats available and figure out how to actually play the game instead of spending all time figuring out how to play the game. Or words to that effect. If those who are dead are to come back to life, who is going to do it? Why, how and when? Will they pay a price? Will we?

How the heck do the mechanics of Dave's dreamself work when he's time-traveling and multiple iterations of his real self are present at once? Is his dreamself awake whenever any version of himself is 'asleep?' Wouldn't that mean his dreamself would nearly always be awake? Or is Dave pulling several time-traveling trips without sleeping at all?

Dave doesn't sleep.

He waits.

Y'know, Dave and Jade messing around with those frogs is pretty adorable.

I love how Scratch isn't all that fazed by "murdering the help" or "casual arson"
