Homesuck: Vriska Rising - Page 129

My theories to the discussion.

1: Every dead person (including guardians) has a ghost self. Grandpa somehow possessed Jade's future kernelsprite and entered his stuffed body and then traveled back in time. (Unlikely and stupid, but we never know with homestuck.)

2: In the same way that Sollux has telekinesis, Aradia has a power. But this power either directly or indirectly manifests her as a ghost after death. And something about being dead/self-spriting disqualifies her from having a dream self. (This one makes my brain hurt less, so I like this one better.)

Only players have dreamselves. Grandpa got in the same way the White Queen got out, time portals shit.

I guess that since Aradia has been dead since way before the Trolls began playing the game, she got no counterpart on Derse/Prospit.

Does this mean we get to learn CD's real, pre-exile name?

katiuska · 08-23-2010, 10:30 PM

Courtyard Droll.

I know that, but I mean Jack Noir is also known as "Sovereign Slayer" and "Spades Slick." (Edit: And Scurrilous Straggler apparently)

And CD is "Courtyard Droll" and "Clubs Deuce" and I'm wondering what the missing name is. Perhaps "pre-exile" was the wrong word choice.

Huh, I hadn't thought of that. Time portals is the most sensible theory. But I thought those only opened up on Skaia-side during the Reckoning?

Then again, they might start to open up 'around' the Reckoning, and since the Reckoning happened so early, then it would explain why Grandpa was there since the beginning of the session as well.

Also CD is the most huggable exile

Well, Jack has five names if you count "Scurrilous Straggler" and "Jackspers Noirlecrow," but I think he might be a special case. We haven't seen any agents named besides Jack outside their government role/exile name/MC identity, and CD, HB, and DD haven't been that important.

I'm pretty sure we are all aware.

Hrm. Well, so much for Clubs Deuce, I suppose.

Post-exile, not-deaded-by-the-crowbar'd-safe Clubs Deuce.
