Oh man, I wondered how that happened to him.
Intrigue is so refreshing.

Woah. I wonder if its possible to actually get the tiger before entering.

If that's not a god-tier slab I will be very surprised. If they aren't bringing him to the god-tier tomb inside the moon, I will be double surprised.

Clearly the proper strategy for homestuck is . . .

1. Murder all dreamselves before they awaken
2. Have them all placed in the crypts.
3. Nuke both moons.
4. ???
5. Profit!

I'm wondering if, for all intents and purposes, their "game" started two years ago, and they just weren't there.

Anyway, if they want to get him to his Quest Bed, they'd better hurry the damn hell up.

I'm curious how this might affect Jake's chance of ascendance. Dave and Rose died on their slabs while their Real-selves were already dead. Aradia's Real-self was already dead when her Dream-self was killed by Jack's green fire. But now Jake has a dead Dream-self potentially on a slab with his real-self still alive. Will he ascend when his real-self is killed or will he just be dead?

Also, wasn't it explained that sessions exist long before the players enter them? It's just that the battlefield is locked in a constant stalemate since there haven't been any prototyping. The game can never truly "start" until a prototyping happens.

That's what I'm saying. Maybe their game is somehow moving in spite of things.

But it's also possible that Jane hasn't actually woken up, and what she saw was more of a prophetic vision.

Well all of the prospitians are dressed plainly, so this is clearly before any of them enter. Also for a prospit dreamer to see the future they have to see something in the clouds of skaia, and for that to happen they have to be awake. Unless Jane has some new unprecedented way of having visions of the future, but I doubt that's the case.

Anyway I don't think that their game is "moving" per se. Like I'm 90% sure their battlefield is still in a stalemate. However it could be that Derse agents managed to infiltrate the moon and have already started influencing the game outside of the battlefield. If that's what you meant then yeah I agree that's a possibility.

It could also be a machination of the session itself. Like Sollux having two dreamselves, or Aradia's dreamself being interred in Derse's core.

Okay Jake looks stupid in non-sprite form.

It's the shorts. So stupid.

Looks even stupider with him living in the Land of Vines and Pumpkins.
