Homesuck: Vriska Rising

[POS Industries]

There are still a number of X-factors unaccounted for in this timeline. For instance, the fate of Colonel Sassacre. Given that no dual pistol-wielding babies fell from the sky in April 1910, reports of his death are not only greatly exaggerated, but undoubtedly nonexistent for the era.

Uh, do we know that for sure?

Grandma Jade probably arrived via meteor and it might've been in 1910 and she could possibly have been wielding pistols.

That being said, goddammit Jake stop giving off so many LE vibes right this instant young man. And stop talking so stupid weird before I smack you one.

EDIT: Also, what's that piece of paper on Jake's desk? It doesn't look like it's written in English. Oh wait duh it's the note he sent John nevermind.

Nope, we already established that Grandma Jade landed with what eventually became the Indiana Jones bunny Jake gave to Jane for her 13th birthday. It would appear that everyone arrived on Earth in this timeline with the same items they had in the original, so in all likelihood Poppop John had the Sassacre text with him, whereas Jake landed with the pistols and oh my god I just realized he killed Grandma Jade.

Fuck.

Odd. His way of writing wasn't nearly as crazy in his letter to John.

Well, yeah, he dropped the line "Oh kicking Christ in a dirty diaper", and talked about Scrums and Whatnot, and used "Gadzooks" unironically, but here, he's dropping stuff like "botherations" and "spanking ripsnorter" and "Devilfucking dickins" all the time.

[Bard The 5th LW]

Well that was written in Act 4, so I guess this is just Hussie's vision of the character changing a bit.

[POS Industries]

Everyone's introduction had sort of an overexaggerated version of themselves to more fully give the reader a facefull of what to expect with that character, though. Like, remember when Dave rapped all the time? This is like that but with loosely Teddy Rooseveltian gibberish.

Or:

When writing a letter one would have more time to carefully consider their words than the fast-and-loose world of instant-messaging. He might choose to be more reserved when speaking with someone he's never met before, particularly a grand-uncle. As the end of the letter drew near he became more rushed and reverted to his vulgarities.

Also, this page seems to be (or will become shortly) significant.

[Locke cole]

It's been significant a few times already. It foreshadowed Jade fully becoming the Witch of Space, and that John would use a magic needle the size of a skyscraper to Scratch the session.

[Loyal]

I meant relevant in the more future, soon-to-be-present sense. That is to say, significant again.

That is to say, either Grandma Jade's legacy (I'm assuming she was still Witch of Space) was helping make the Robobunny and sending it to the not-scratched session, or not-scratched Jade, after arriving, became Grandma Jade (with Dave's help most likely).
