Homesuck: Vriska Rising - Page 717

Ryong · 06-04-2011, 06:45 PM

Do we even know if this is the Alpha timeline and that Doc Scratch follows a timeline at all, though?

Edit: Hell, we still don't even know if Jack vs Vriska is the Alpha timeline, I mean, shit, Karkat and Sollux were together, as were Terezi and Gamzee and Kanaya was walking around somewhere, why'd Jack get Karkat and Terezi? "Hey, look, this is the final matesprit pair of your shitty species." ?

Anyway, my money's on Vriska winning and this being a pyrrhic victory: She wins, gets a dreambubble where Aradia tells her that, shit, no, this ain't the alpha timeline and now not only is she alone in this timeline, none of her efforts have mattered at all, which would be incredible...And then it cuts to the Alpha timeline with Alpha!Vriska staying with Terezi.

Edit2: Seriously Snake, I know of your unending Vriska hate, but did you skip the ancestor plot point completely?

It's just a single attack, it looks like. It's not like she's turned into MARQUISE SPINNERET MINDFANG MK II WHO CAN DEFEAT EVERYTHING EVER.

Out of curiosity, could we possibly tone down on the VRISKA IS A TERRIBLE CHARACTER AND HUSSIE IS TERRIBLE FOR MAKING HER UP AND YOU SHOULD FEEL BAD FOR LIKING HER; ANY UPDATE IN WHICH SHE DOESN'T DIE IS TERRIBLE in general. Just a bit. I mean, by no means does anyone have to like any character they think is stupid or a Mary Sue or whatever but it does make the thread seem kind of hostile for those who DO like her. (Baww how dare you not like what I like) blah blah I have terrible taste so on and so forth. Or at least wait to see what happens before being like whatever is happening is terrible and stupid.

I mean, you don't have to but it'd be nice.

In other news, I have a feeling everything is going to stop anticlimactically as Scratch pulls the fire alarm, somehow.

It's not a flash, but it's extreme fancy awesomeness will not go unnoted.

Vriska-hate is the MLP of this Homestuck thread

Nahhh, this is fine. Bear in mind, Rose got several flashes dedicated to the buildup to her fight with Jack, with John playing a supporting role. Vriska is getting less here in terms of ZOMG DBZ POWERUP SEQUENCES AHOY relative to her actual place of importance compared to the kids, at least.

It all kinda middles out when you consider that, insofar as the story itself is concerned, she's not actually more important than Karkat or Terezi, either, but for the time being I'm just content in the knowledge that Hussie is at least fair in his execution of being a lazyass who's apparently lost all sense of being able to convey an exciting action sequence.

The bookmark remains!

This is pretty much my reaction to the ~~updates~~ everythings.

I tend avoid this thread due to the massive boo-hooing going on in here sometimes. It seems to be so full of fanboy rage. Mostly premature fanboy rage by people who confuse Homestuck with an episodic comic for some weird reason.

As for seemingly nothing happening and anticlimaxes*, I can understand why some would have a problem with that, but don't mind myself. So it's not like I want to start another shitstorm, far from that.

And Hussie is awesome for shitting on the readers who try to tell him what to do, so they can ship their favorite characters or whatever. It's not like he just shoots honest criticism down, like so many here would make me believe.

And Vriska turned out to be my favorite troll not long after her introduction. Right after Gamzee of course.

I thought Avatar sucked and liked both cuts of Donnie Darko, in fact I really enjoyed the Director's Cut. I also enjoyed Shoot Em Up, prefer MSG2 over MGS3 (which the most horribly overrated POS only topped by Avatar) and a whole lot of other stuff I can't think of right now. Go on.

Wait, why am I saying this after saying I don't want to start a shitstorm? We'll never know.

You're not keeping up well at all.

You still ran with the suggestion, though. However, do I have to change my sig back? You should know already that I'M A COMPLETE MORON IN EVERY CONCEIVABLE WAY.

Since you can't do it through the internet, I'll punch myself in the head for you. Until I either bleed/fall unconscious.

If Scratches speculations go where I think they go she'll win but probably barely make it. Assuming he's using the troll's fight with the Black King as a reference of sorts (At least I think it was the Black King). Of course that's only one of the possible outcomes in my pretty little head, but the first one that sprang to mind after "omg Vriska gets pwnz0ri2ed", so I'm rolling with those two for now. Of course, whatever happens now, but turn out to be not true afterwards, or maybe it happens, but with a twist we're yet to learn. Or it's exactly as Scratch says.
