Well yeah, that was pretty much the obvious thing that was going to happen once Rose paired off with Kanaya and Jake paired off with Dirk with Jane as the runner-up. There were no other options available that didn't involve raining on some other tumblr shipper's parade that was already in progress.

We have reached the "we have to pair everyone off in the most clean, convenient way possible with no buildup or subtlety whatsoever" stage of storytelling. The only pressing matter that the plot will deem necessary to work out is how to effectively manage the Dirk/Jake/Jane issue in a way that makes sure everyone lives happily ever after in their respective pairings.

Meanwhile, we still don't give a shit about Lord English. Or any of the Jack Noirs flying through space at the moment, for that matter.

Not gonna lie, I never gave a shit about Lord English.

No one did, there was never any reason to. By the time he showed up, the plot was too focused on getting all the OTPs in a row.

That said, kudos to John for meeting a hot girl and proceeding to literally tell her about Homestuck.

I really don't think, or maybe I'm just hoping, this John and Roxy thing is actually going to happen at all.

(because every relationship Roxy's looked into materialized into an actual pairing)

Much more, I'm interested in John's god tier lesson. I get the feeling that his powers manifesting when he needs them most is just how it works for Heirs. They inherit their powers, as if the aspect is a guardian. Contrast with Pages, who face eternal level grinding.

And I'm looking forward to the Jackpot.
