Without showing the doomed timeline, and what would have come of it, we would be left having to assume that Terezi was the type to stab a friend in the back. Instead we are shown that Terezi is explicitly not the type to do that, but is willing to sacrifice her emotions for the safety of herself and her friends. Edit: The coin toss is the same, but as Terezi explained (with Dave's toss) the coin toss isn't what changes the universe. It's how people react to it, and by flipping the coin she was able to read the results of Vriska's actions... and what would happen if she stayed her hand like she wanted to.

Yes. The pattern about me always being right about the direction of the plot.
I mean, what else would I be talking about?

This is kind of serious.
If you can't handle non-dark colors on a black or near-black background, I wonder if it's rather your monitor or your eyes that are the problem.

HA HA HA
AHA HA HA AHA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA (So glad everyone is still alive; considering what we know happens in the future, Jack blowing up the troll base made no sense whatsoever)

And no, not just because Vriska was stabbed. (Because I don't think she'll be staying dead, anyway.) I'm more glad that now all the previous buildup to a Terezi / Vriska confrontation that I felt was going nowhere (because Vriska flew off before the fight began) wasn't for naught.

I'm kinda annoyed that he implied that Vriska would have won the fight.
One, because why the fuck is anyone just beating Jack. And then doesn't that make the timeline less doomed. Still far more concerned with the banner. What the hell? Dead SS? Wasn't Scratch supposed to beat him severely?

It wasn't heroic or just. Vriska will live. No, ladies and gentlemen, we all know who the real loss was today. Matchsticks. His death was most definitely heroic. All he wanted to do was put out a fire. Risking his own life. And now... now he's gone. He wasn't the hero this story needs, but he was the hero this story deserved. RIP, Matchsticks. You will be missed. |

I'm refering to this panel. Scratch bends the horse hitcher a couple pages back to stop SS from hitting him in the dome with it.
And any death of Vriska is just, but yeah she's probably fine.

It was just. It was essentially killing Vriska for being to blame for everyone dying in the doomed timeline.
