Why do I see him doing that while melting like a wax candle?

I just read through all of this from the beginning, due solely to this thread and that troll surge a bit back.

Totally worth it. Though it involved lots of skimming. And unfortunately by the time I got to the trolls, I had gone through 3000 pages of the humans so I just wanted to know what happened to John and Dave and the skimming increased. Plus I really wanted to get to the end.

I figure anything important will be brought up again later.

My plan for a long while has been to wait until Act 5 ends before rereading the whole damn thing again, and also before seeing what a mess the TV Tropes page has become. But of course this is the longest goddamn Act of all time, so who the hell knows when that'll happen.

A not-uncommon sentiment. You can always go back and reread whenever you decide you give a shit about 'em.

At first I was like "Oh man finally Jade will talk to Karkat!"
Then I saw the Aquarius symbol and I was like " :I "
But then I read the conversation and I was keeling over with laughter.

FFFFFWW = all F's is the hexadecimal code for "white". "WW" is the first two letters in how Eridan says "whale".

No, I don't think she'll talk to Karkat for a bit. Remember, he couldn't get ahold of her in the future (now present), so he had to get in touch with her much further in the future to figure out how, and she told him to tell her to blah blah blah, and they've already had that conversation, which ultimately proved pointless anyway.

I'm pretty sure the part that he couldn't get ahold of her in was the time period where Jade screws around in the Frog Temple to when Dream Jade died, and Jade is actively ignoring him.
Since he wanted to tell her about contacting him when her dreamself dies and its robot explodes.
Like here.

And then she contacts him after she wakes up from Rainbow Road. So I'm more or less convinced that the time frame in which she's adamant about non-cooperation is closed by then.

So really, it's more that all that needs to happen now is to have Jade tell Karkat to contact far past her. Karkat was pretty vague about the circumstances of him having to contact past Jade, and from the perspective of the Karkat that Jade is forced to cooperate with, it hasn't happened yet (he didn't know what she was talking about when she said that she's contacting him about the exploded robot), so really all that needs to happen is for Jade to tell him and to have that time loop closed.
