God Fucking Dammit Vriska! YOU GOT THE GREEN SLIME GHOST KILLED [img]http://www.topatoco.com/graphics/00000002/mspa-ghost-shirt-sm.gif[/img] R.I.P 2009-2010 Goodnight Sweet Prince
Before we judge Vriska's actions as 'noble' I think we have to determine if her primary motivation was to make the inevitable death painless for John or something more selfish.
There's always the possibility that she was somehow able to mind-control Jack.
[QUOTE=Raxas;26736655]Before we judge Vriska's actions as 'noble' I think we have to determine if her primary motivation was to make the inevitable death painless for John or something more selfish.[/QUOTE] It was probably more for her own amusement. Sadistic bitch.
I have made a shocking revelation. Bec Noir always stabs people in the same place as where the blade is in him.
Snip
[QUOTE=IceCKryss;26718921]I pity Karkat and Aradia though, for not having the chance to advance to the "god-tiers".[/QUOTE] To be fair, Karkat is pretty much undisputed brave and fearless leader among the trolls, and if Rainbow Six and taught me anything, it's that leaders don't need shit for actual combat skill. [QUOTE=Anonymuzz;26728965]He's not going to stay dead.[/QUOTE] Would be cool if he did, though. [QUOTE=Doomish;26730221]All things considered, you have to admit that it's still disconcerting to see the main character get stabbed through the chest AND DIE. That kind of thing doesn't happen every day.[/QUOTE] Did you guys never play Chrono Trigger? Protagonists just up and die all the time. Fuck, now I feel old.
[QUOTE=Xenocidebot;26737031]Would be cool if he did, though.[/QUOTE] It'd be edgy and unexpected, but not good. It'd be ridiculous for the (close enough to) main character to just die in his sleep.

Also [quote="me"]If Vriska hadn't done what she did, John'd be dead since he wouldn't've been asleep when Bec Noir would have killed him, thus "trapping" him in his body, the same was Tholluthx was until Fef kiss'd him, except this time Rose would have likely been killed by Bec Noir as well.[/quote]
[QUOTE=Xenocidebot;26737031]To be fair, Karkat is pretty much undisputed brave and fearless leader among the trolls, and if Rainbow Six and taught me anything, it's that leaders don't need shit for actual combat skill.[/QUOTE] Well, he's not completely fearless, as he was afraid that the other trolls would find out about his blood color, making him the absolute lowest possible on their caste system and he feared that they wouldn't accept him as a leader if they knew that. It's why he made Terezi promise not to tell anyone else when she revealed that she knew Karkat's blood color until he was certain that he had their entire trust and respect as a leader, and then he would tell them himself.

He completely defies it. [editline]16th December 2010[/editline] He would be more of outcast than low caste. Also, no other trolls aside Equius and Eridian seem to give a jack shit about others blood castes.

Also, no other trolls aside Equius and Eridian seem to give a jack shit about others blood castes.[/QUOTE] He defies the caste system and hides his blood due to the abnormality of it. Because troll castes are a reverse of the visible spectrum, if he were to try to integrate into troll society he'd be denied many things due to his blood color. It is a mutation to be candy-red, the brightest red possible, but other trolls would consider that as a sign for Karkat to be the lowest possible on their system. They wouldn't consider it a mutation, just a symbol of Karkat's place in their system. It's why he hides his blood color. He doesn't care about it, but he cares what other people think about it, which is why he merely tried to hide the wound from Jack Noir when Jack first stabbed him. He later argues that Jack is an ally despite repeated stabbings, because Jack doesn't care about blood color and proved that they have no difference in the color. Eridan's an asshole, but none of the trolls really care what he thinks, and Equius gets off on it, shown when he wanted Gamzee to order him around despite Gamzee not caring about the system at all and he only did it to humor Equius.

ummmmmmMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Hey guys, how would I go about making a picture have that "unstable" effect like Bec and Doc Scratch have?
[QUOTE=IceCKryss;26737290]Well, he's not completely fearless[/QUOTE] It was a Rocky and Bullwinkle joke. I am sorry I spurred a discussion with it. [QUOTE=Turnips5;26737100]It'd be edgy and unexpected, but not good.

I mean, fuck, the Hun died from either gagging on his own nosebleed on a giant ass snot pocket from drinking like a moron.

I wonder if Andrew purposely takes his time on updates after such [I]shocking events[/I] as this to build up tension. Because it's fucking working.
Well, the mspa.com was down for a couple minutes. I expected some more pages, but nope, nothing new... :sigh: Oh, whatever. Funny time!

[QUOTE=madmanmad;26733635]Vriska actually saved john, putting him to sleep so he could become his dreamself. He was going to get killed either way, but this way he isn't really dead. First nice thing she's ever done maybe?[/QUOTE] Also, I'd rather be stabbed in the gut and killed in my sleep than being stabbed in the gut and killed while fully awake.
[QUOTE=Shibbey;26739647][media]http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y162/SpaceDragon/scratchframes.png[/media][/QUOTE] How wonderful. PS crashed right as I was finishing. All that work was gone. :sigh:
I'm so confused
And then Andrew takes a week long hiatus.
So Gold member forum failed me. Looking for an animated avatar of Jack Bec
Man. Spent a week reading all the way from the start. This is a rad story.
