    one thing i forgot about that was recent:
    JOHN: ok, there is one last thing i have to do.
    TEREZI: WH4T
    JOHN: it says i have to give you my wallet.
    TEREZI: WH4T??
    JOHN: but...
    JOHN: i don't actually have my wallet?
    TEREZI: YOU DONT?
    JOHN: no.
    JOHN: i lost it years ago.
    JOHN: i think i gave it to...
    JOHN: damn. who was it.
    JOHN: liv tyler, the bunny?
    JOHN: or was it that short chess dude.
    JOHN: shit!
    TEREZI: WHY WOULD 1 T3LL YOU TO G1V3 M3 YOUR W4LL3T 1F YOU DON'T H4V3 1T
    JOHN: i guess you didn't realize i lost it??
    JOHN: hell, even i can't remember what items we still have half the time.
    JOHN: terezi, just between you, me, unconscious vriska, and that dumb clown there, this adventure has been one huge mess.

    john didn't actually fulfill Terezi's plan

    and now i need to go back and see what was in the wallet pre-cascade. I know it got stolen because it had the tumor in it but i assume that's not what she was talking about

    was it the metric ton of shaving cream?

    My first guess looking back is that it was one of liv Tyler's weapons

    The quills of echidna are used for the scratch

    Ahabs crosshairs seems mainly like just a really strong gun

    That leaves the warhammer of zillyhoo or the deringer

    With the way the life and void rings are playing so heavily into the story, the deringer might be important

    On the other hand the warhammer of zillyhoo has a connection to trickster bullshit and who knows how exactly that's going to be relevant

    It could just be needing the wallet to store something.

    Aren't the wallets a fairly no-bullshit inventory system?

    The CD that got killed by Jack has it:

    Checking to see what was in it. Pretty sure just shaving cream.

    Jack took the wallet and stuck it inside Lil Cal, it ended up on Alternia and that's why some of Dad's things are littered about, like the Crosbytop

    In the recent stuff John speculates they just needed it to store something big, since it doesn't have any size restrictions on what can be captcha'd

    but jade's space powers seems to make that concern pretty moot? Unless they specifically needed to captcha something big during the voyage to B2

    oh hey wait a second

    Ahab's Crosshairs is a juju

    John receives it from Liv Tyler

    It travels to Alternia with Lil Cal

    Eridan gets ahold of it

    He sends it to Jade

    Jade throws it away

    it ends up in B2

    Jake gives it to Liv Tyler

    powerful item, no discernible origin

    jujuuuuuuuuuu

    wait no eridan sent her the code for the crosshairs, if it was a juju it shouldn't have been duplicable, or else the original should've vanished which i'm not seeing happen

    John, guided by Terezi, used his retcon powers to jump back to the moment that Terezi killed Vriska. He punched her out, which was the sort of retrospectively obvious solution to the problem that Terezi couldn't think of at the time. KOing her prevented her from attracting Jack's attention while also letting her live

    and now a whole bunch of stuff is different because Vriska lived, among other things. Terezi isn't all torn up about romance because she told herself not to worry about it, and she stopped herself from killing vriska so she wasn't so torn up with guilt

    Vriska's obviously helping out but I have a feeling that she's overestimating her importance here and underestimating Terezi's

    hmm I kind of think the thing vriska's going to have to leave to do shortly is die doing something about the two becs
    or die doing something to prevent the condesce from mind controlling jade, so she can keep the becs under control

    I just can't help but feel like Hussie wrote himself into a corner, which prompted the need to make Game Over so there was a reason to basically redo huge swathes of Act 6.

    I dont think so... there's always been this theme in homestuck of the heroes being entirely screwed and needing a hail mary pass. Game Over was just another escalation and variation on the theme.

    Highest hope: All of Vriska's "I'm the leader" garbage gets swept away as John and Roxy effortlessly assume command of the whole operation, and galvanize Karkat back out of his funk to complete the Team Leader Triumvirate. Vriska flips out about this, runs off to do something reckless and egotistical without considering the consequences, and we discover that this whole arc has just been a convoluted way to give us the unparalleled gift of watching her die a second third time.
    (If you like Vriska, I'm OK with that, different people can like different things. But I'm pretty sick of her personally.)

    Look, man, statistically speaking someone has to have Tavros and you drew the short straw. It could be worse though. Mine's Eridan.

    At least Eridan was kinda funny in his own messed up way! Tavros is just depressing.
