is it wrong that I really really want Vriska and Juney to stay besties, and like maybe even have a real relationship this time? their t4t relationship vibes are so fuckin cute, I really really reeeaaally hope they dont loose touch like they did in the original and homestuck^2 regardless I've really been loving the new take on vriska and the rest of the cast < 3 Jojo and the rest of the amazing people working on this do such a good job < 3 I know massive breaks will be inevitable when making something of this scale, but I hope I get to see the ending someday < 3 This little audio story brings me so much joy in my day to day < 3
Just finished catching up, as a person whos lived in houston all my life i really appreciate that Dave has a texan accent even tho most houstonians dont get thay southern draw, its fuckn beautiful and i feel so glad to be from the same place as him
You've written such an accurate representation of the transfem experience(obviously, since you are part of the community yourself, lmao). This was already really clear with the flashback showing Vriska messing up and paralyzing Tavros and i left a comment gushing about the fact on that video, but this continuation just keeps up the pace. Terezi trying to stop Vriska from forming new relationships under the guise of keeping June safe was pretty blatantly an attempt to further Vriska's social isolation(and could also have been done out of romantic jealousy who knows how this story will shake out). Terezi knows perfectly well that June is safe in the future, so all she could hope to gain from the interaction was turning June against Vriska and taking away the only friend Vriska has probably had since the cycle of revenge happened. Also, when talking accurate representation, Dave calling June dude/bro/man is such a familiar experience. Dave obviously wasn't doing it maliciously, and his response was pretty good(though still somewhat dismissive), but it is so common that when you as a *transfem* person talk about the *transfem* experience and unique experiences you go through as a *trans woman* that you get a million replies from random people who act like they are trying to have a normal, civil debate while filling their responses with dude/bro/man. And of course when you call them out on it they act like you're the crazy one and say that those words are gender neutral. Anyway, all of this really long comment is to say that you did a great job writing this! You've made me emotionally resonate with June and Vriska even more than i did when i read the original comic!
I think Vriska legitimately put John in real danger. Not, unlike what terezi did earlier creating a doom timeline, wouldn't it make sense that Terezi was trying to prevent any future iterations of Doom timelines now that the trolls are on a good path. Especially given it might have been an accident, but Vriska doesn't have the best track record.
do sprites have dreamselves? can sprites even dream? like would they just teleport to prospit/derse or go to the dreambubbles? or would they just... ACTUALLY dream?
damn, that "you are no longer jack noir" hits hard. that nepeta voice thing was a pretty big issue, but youre aware of that already. 14:40 ...did vriska mean that june meant to say "thank you" and not "you're welcome"? i think the beef between june and her friends is interesting. im not sure what to say beyond that but its an interesting thread. good characterization.
