HOLY SHIT, HOMESTUCK

FIRST WEBCOMIC TO MAKE ME CRY, I SWEAR

I NEED TO STOP SHOUTING 'GOD DAMN IT, HUSSIE' EVERY TIME I READ A NEW UPDATE

Heh, it's cool. This is just, like, the third time it updated while I was asleep and other people where freaking out and spoiled it a bit (other times were Tavros's death and Fef's death).

Oh, snap. I forgot about that update. Hmm. Still doesn't particularly answer why he's snapped. EDGE OF MY SEAT RIGHT HERE

Tavros is my favorite purely because it was a Tavros rper that introduced me to HS, and their Tav was adorable and awesome. Terezi is pretty close to being my favorite, though. And Vriska is amazing in her Magnificent Bastardry.

welllll my theory about Gamzee is that he's always been messed up, but he's been doped on those sopor slime pies all along. Now that they no longer exist, he has nothing interfering with high blooded troll's tendency to BE CRAZY

(seriously, aside from Feferi every other high caste troll is fricking nuts)

I've seen a few people tossing around the idea that his lower case and CAPS voices are different personalities that were forced into one by the slime but have now separated. As far as I can see, though, his typing quirk has just gone from alternating by letter to alternating by sentence.

Honestly I feel a lot for Tavros, maybe because I am more like him than any other troll. He even does the "uh" thing that litters my text messages, e-mails, and sometimes LJ comments if I'm being casual or silly. And I guess he represents my sign, but that is incidental. There are so many other excellent characters, though! I like Rose a lot, and I fluctuate wildly between wanting Vriska dead and loving everything about her. And Equius is such a weirdo creeper, I love him so much for it.

Aha, I sooo do not pay enough attention to pick up stuff like that (though, I'm starting to). I did suspect something would happen with Gamzee, though, considering his trollian username.

Man, all the trolls are love! They are all such great characters with so much going on. Now that you mention it, you do have a few similarities with Tavros! Just... don't go throwing yourself over a cliff because of mind control!

It kind of helped that I read most of the troll stuff recently over the course of two or three days, so all the details are still pretty fresh in my mind.

I didn't suspect a thing from his username! I should have after what happened to Tavros (adios toreador indeed), but I thought that Gamzee's early unreliability was what terminallyCapricious was referring to. Now I am poring over the other usernames searching for clues about their eventual fates. I have become a paranoid wreck in the meantime.

And I have to investigate their signs, too! Did you see what Hussie said on his formspring about Kanaya and her sign being Virgo? THERE IS APPARENTLY MEANING EVERYWHERE. Except for where there isn't.

I have no plans to fall any great distances at the current time! }:) okay geeze his emoticons just make me kind of sad.
