KARKAT: WHY? BECAUSE SHE LIKES TO DRINK THAT GOOFY HUMAN SOPORIFIC THAT MAKES HER A LOT FUNNIER AND MORE CHARMING THAN USUAL?
KARKAT: HOW IS THAT A PROBLEM?
Re: the scratch and how the guardians and kids shake out my official position is now "fuck it, either there are plot holes or there is more exposition coming but either way not everything makes perfect sense with the information we currently hold"
DAVE: so i said no hard feelings i still like you and all, do whatever makes you happy ill just be over here in the hyper gravity chamber training to beat lord english
KARKAT: WE HAVE A HYPER GRAVITY CHAMBER???
DAVE: no
KARKAT: THE MAYOR'S FRIENDSHIP IS A UNIVERSAL CONSTANT, AND I AM INSULTED BEYOND COMPREHENSION AS WELL AS MY CAPACITY TO VOMIT THAT YOU WOULD INSINUATE OTHERWISE.
But the funniest thing in this update for me was Dave describing the meteor as "tokyo drifting" to a stop.
For me it was
DAVE: no dude thats not what gift of gab does KARKAT: OK WHAT DOES IT DO THEN WISE GUY!
DAVE: its utility isnt really comprehensible to lowly mortals sorry
john is the best kid but dave and roxy are both generally funnier
john beats them because he tends to still be really funny even if not as funny as them, and it is just incredibly endearing how his dopey optimism and friendliness tends to disarm people just slice right through a lot of bullshit that other characters build out of their cynicism or insecurity
reciprocating a crush and dating a cool person (and unfortunately indulging in drinking like a typical teen) vs. dating an asshole and drifting away from all your former friends?
Okay, Terezi's eyes have been covered for a while now, and it can't be for giggles.
I think "DEAD." is off the table since Terezi would be restricted to dream bubbles. My guess is MORE MIND CONTROL similar to Kurloz and Meulin, but I would have assumed a Heroine of Mind would be resistant to that. Since Gamzee has Lil Cal, perhaps she took a look into his eyes at some point.
The hood comes off, and her eyes are rotating billiard balls.
2010: 22 pages. "They are a riddle draped in a mystery wrapped in post-apocalyptic shroudwear." AR chugs down some Tab, but finds it too warm and the gravy too cold. He heads back to the ruins to grab Jade's COOKALIZER and REFRIGIFYIFICATOR from the ruins, as well as the (now quite old) TANGLE BUDDIES as a gift for "the feisty tall one". In the meantime, WV invites PM inside his capsule so he can show John to her. AR's rocket blast at last unlocked the third room, which of course contains yet another strange device. The console has a single button on it, above which is the standard power meter. To the left of the meter is a dial of some sort which points to a spirograph logo on either side of a frog. They head to the computer room, and there's John on the surface of LOWAS as we saw earlier. WV tries to get PM to say hi, but instead she seems to be more interested in his chalk drawings. WV decides to give the chalk. She seems to be a fan. (Serenity: "YAY!!!") WV is distracted by the scent of AR cooking something or another, so he runs off. PM takes the chance to regard WV's terminal, remembering her own before "the unfortunate accident". PM wonders if she should touch it, considering, but still "there is something familiar about the boy on this monitor too". She types in "I am told your name is John. Is that correct?" This confirms that she was the player in [ S] ACT 4 ==>. She walks John through is initial experience on LOWAS, as we sawpreviously.
2011: 4 pages. Kanaya slices Eridan right in half. He is DEAD. Kanaya takes a moment so that Equius's shades can perfectly come to rest on her.
2012: 4 pages. Jake levels up, climbing to the PETER PANACHE rung in his echeladder and increasing his porkhollow's wealth to 111,111 boonbucks. Jake gets his iPhone out (which, of course, has a partially nude blue alien lady as a wallpaper) and messages Dirk. "Bro. Your contraption and its busy fists just royally kicked my ass. And that sure as god made little green apples isnt all there is to say on the matter!" Jake continues on in this manner, wondering if he's going to get his uranium or what. The auto-responder finally responds saying that Dirk can't hear him at the moment.

eh, i like roxy as much as the next guy but john has said(or at least done) funnier things than she has. tricking karkat into using his trolling joke about baby playground jamboree, making karkat message him back every few minutes during the cloning, actually... just about every interaction with karkat.

Maybe it's more symbolic of her relationship to her role. Rose's Seer outfit obscures her eyes while...Terezi never went godtier? I'm not sure where I'm going with this.
I could have sworn that Terezi was still under the hovering doom that plagues the blind sages? Perhaps since she never honestly went wholly blind on account of her sense of smell some other form of "blindness" is yet to be inflicted upon her?
Also this update is thoroughly approved of
And for the record I would like to state that every kid/troll should have some kind of alternate "evil" form in the vein of Grimdark/bark and Obedient Jane
May I suggest putting Jake under Caliborn's thrall, Dirk to become consumed by a resurgent version of the AR program and Roxy to deliberately trigger Trickster again

Capital idea, Karkat!

alcoholic rose or juggalo terezi

she and Roxy need to have a talk about this

Terezi is way sadder
