Homesuck: Vriska Rising

[Loyal]

You motherfucker, Hussie. Why would you deny that to us.

But this is interesting. It almost certainly means that she meant for Dave to one day show Gamzee the video, and trigger his insanity.

And so, it looks like Gamzee's just as responsible as Vriska and Karkat are. He caused John to subconsciously maim the harlequin doll, and then prototype it (or, if you want to be a bit more plausible, he caused Dad to become concerned enough to buy said doll in the first place). He caused Dave to fear Cal, which I think led to Scratch's creation? Oh, and he caused Rose to write out the MEOW code, which led to Becquerels creation.

So... that's 3 trolls now who have each caused a number of intermediate steps towards Bec Noir's creation.

I like that after she's dead we're finding out how everything actually *isn't* all Vriska's fault and hers alone.

I think, rather, that it wasn't anyones 'fault', unless we are giving Inescapable Inevitability an anthropomorphic personification and then pointing the finger.

Well, in the story, we already had a scene of Aradia basically cursing out Paradox Space itself. So I'm gonna point my finger squarely in that direction.

Nice way to end that update there.

So basically, Gamzee's Rage power is to give other people nightmares?

So he's a Boogie (Woogie) Man?

[Revising Ocelot]

I think that's just the Bard part. The Rage part is synonymous for being totally overpowered.

[Bard The 5th LW]

He doesn't just give Nightmares. He makes nightmares.

He said he focused this stuff through his rage, though.

So, is this how Doc Scratch's code came to be? Via the rage-power of a prematurely-insane Gamzee from another timeline?
