Wait, assuming Jade's "grandson" IS actually post-scratch Grandpa, how did he get Ahab's Crosshairs? There's no reason it should be in the universe after the scratch. If it's still on Jade's world (she said she'd throw it away somewhere), it's with them, and if it fell through a portal back to Earth, then it should have been scratched out of existence. There must be some pretty extensive time shenanigans going on with all the items Liv Tyler has.

Well Jade and John escaped into the post-scratch session (according to the Skaian prophecy), and we have no way of knowing when in J's timeline he was corresponding with Jade. Right now all the signs are pointing towards J contacting Jade because John and Jade showed up in his session and making him aware of the need to complete the time loop.

Ahab's crosshar were discarded by Jade on LOFAF. They'll presumably go back to get them later.

Also, Echidna is still around, so they can likelyu get a second pair of quills from her, or just retrieve the other from Beat Mesa and shrink them down. Gamzee has an unaltered Warhammer of Zillyhoo, and Dave has the halved Royal Deringer. SO the stage is pretty much set for the J to get all of those weapons.

Your name is JACK HARLEY.

You have a wide variety of INTERESTS, most revolving around your hobby as a YOUTH ADVENTURER. You are fascinated by the contents of UNEARTHED TOMBS, the thrilling tales of ANCIENT MUMMIES, the sporting challenge of BIG GAME HUNTING, the mysterious depths of UNEXPLORED CAVES, and the stunning craftmanship displayed by SUITS OF ARMOR. Your room is filled with TROPHIES of your ADVENTUROUS EXPLOITS, the DEADLY FIREARMS you used to procure them, posters from your favorite CINEMATIC SLAPSTICK COMEDIES that you know are totally great despite how bad everyone else says they are, and photographs of BEAUTIES that have spent the precise amount of time bleached by the sun in hair salon windows.

You live with your NANNA and her FAITHFUL CANINE COMPANION, both of whom are expertly able to ensure your continued safety even on the most excitingly dangerous adventures, thanks in no small part to your Nanna's stunning intuition, a talent which almost seems to border on PROGNOSTICATION. She's not too bad a shot with a deadly firearm, either.

I've got the outlines for Mom and Bro figured out, but not yet written. Mostly because I listed them after Nanna, who is proving difficult to come up with since so much of her characterization is based on the influences of Betty Crocker and Colonel Sassacre and a version of her raised by neither leaves little to with which to work.

Lord help me I think this qualifies as fanfiction. Someone please kill me.

We already did that, but the case was already so severe that this is what was left of him after the corpse stopped rotting.

I, too, am ashamed. MEANWHILE:

Like how right now I'm thinking the Condesce raised Mom in the Skaianet lab.

You know, little things like that.

EDIT: I mean, shit, even without the involvement of alien monarchs, "Mom was raised in a lab" explains a fucking lot.

I am officially convinced this hinges entirely on the involvement of alien monarchs.

Wait holy shit that overcoat is draped over the fourth wall Jade is about to go smashing right the fuck through. Can't believe I forgot about that.

I am guessing there will be a gag panel of Jade attempting to wear the overcoat. And then if Hussie stops fucking around (unlikely) Lord English will show up to retrieve his coat.

POS Industries · 10-31-2011, 02:33 AM

That was something Hussie mentioned on his Tumblr, actually. Jade and John will be in Hussie's room for roughly a nanosecond at their current speed and, if you'll notice, their point of entry on the fourth wall is straight through one of the coattails.

That's pretty much the likely extent of their shenanigans in that room.

He also said that the coat might not be there now that LE has arrived and probably wants his coat.
