Anyone have a read on Tumblr's reaction?

A bit quiet since it's so late. People are crush, support groups are being formed.

there's this

meanwhile
Aradia Megido:i wonder how everyone else is doing right now

Huh. Caliborn looked pretty sad at the end. I think that he's not actually Lord English. Maybe Calliope is?

Either that, or she's responsible for Caliborn becoming Lord English. It would make sense, since there's pretty much no way that Caliborn would have the patience to actually create (and carry out) all these weird plans.

He's sad because it's the first time he ever got his ass handed to him and this is probably what changes him for the worst to become LE.

Jade is dogtier already, she can't come back. I think.

Yeah, beds are a one-time deal...as far as we know at least.  Who knows, the residual dust in the cartridge and the fact that there are two dead gods there might do some weird stuff to it.

Time is about becoming inevitability, though.  Could do something to his patience as he gets further along.

There's no way John isn't going to retcon this somehow. Aranea was fucking up the timeline, That Fucking Clown died, and it looks like The Forge may have just been destroyed. That last one is by far the most telling, if the universe they create will be home to Caliborn.

Might be what causes John to gain control of the powers.  Not mastery, but he could get close to doing what he wants.  I'm curious as to how Roxy's ability would factor into that, if it does, since she did...something...with her powers.

They thought that after her dreamself died, so there might still be hope for here.

No, her dreamself was revived, and that was the only way it worked.

Uh, if I remember correctly, it was pretty clear that he wanted to destroy everything, even in his LO_A_ days. He wasn't completely bonkers like LE, though.

Personally, I think that this might change him for the better, not for the worse.

...Am I the only one who hopes we get A6A6A4 next, not more A6A6I3? I want to see how how LE implements his OCs into his world of stolen handicrafts. I might get my wish, since the end of the flash showed him reaching for the mouse.

Heh, when Gamzee is split in half he's half :o) and half Do:

(Also I'm so happy Carne Vale got used)

[Liber celi]

Why didn't this update show up in my RSS feed

Awesome flash, anyway. And so many dead children! It's like Hunger Games, only better!

Well, Aranea established she wanted to change the timeline, and I guess that's what a doomed timeline looks like. We still have at least one Time player and John's Retcon ability to Fix Fucking Everything, but I'm not sure if that's going to happen: I can't see this bloody cul-de-sac of a game over have much effect on the main timeline, the way John's doomed gate skip early on created Davesprite for example. So I think it's more likely they will work around this mess instead of undoing it, but I've been wrong before.

Also what if Gamzer works like the broom in Goethe's Zauberlehrling

[~Neri]

Gamtosis?

[Sergarr]

I guess if it's literally title "GAME OVER" then the Caliborn is going to use his universal device to load up a previous save game.

Presumably using the same buttons we've had since the beginning of the comic.

EDIT: With some help I remembered why all this is happening.

Aranea and her stupid "hurr I'll heal the doomed timeline to alpha status durr" plan.

EDIT2:

The absence of Dirk is also very suspicious...

Can't keep down the clown.

Yeah, I love the comedy/tragedy mask thing going on there.

But seriously, why does everyone seem to think the clown died in this flash? Even in an alternate timeline? ("There is no timeline I'm aware of..." etc. etc.)

Nothing prevents him from sustaining fatal wounds: Dude's been perforated to hell before, as you might recall. He lay down in a heap and bled all over the place, letting Caliborn mistake him for dead. It just didn't stick. I don't see how being quartered is going to be any more permanent than all those bullet holes were.

[Liber celi]

Probably because Caliborn didn't multi-tap him into the brain.

That being said:
(Now imagine all those brooms had shity makeup and cod pieces)

The Caliborn has personally offed the Author so he maybe possibly is not aware of the currently unfolding events.

We're also dealing with a retcon time-traveller here, which leads to time-line changes that the Author was not aware at the time he made that statement.

Gotta love how Jake-Jane's and Jade-Dave's deaths are there to fuck with the shippers.

Also the symbolism with Dave's death, stabbed in the front by the just PM, and stabbed in the back by the now literally-back-stabbing Noir.

How long is this flash? I think is used the entirety of Carne Vale, so 4:23 minutes?

Whether or not John's bullshit retcon power fixes everything,

this was fun to watch

[Guardian G.I.]

Apparently, this is supposed to be the page of the next update. It currently says "coming soon".

Oh, no, Gamzee could still be alive. In two pieces at the bottom of a lava lake. Its also possible Hussie was trolling Caliborn when he said Gamzee was invulnerable because he was a clown. Highblooded trolls are hard to kill. Vriska survived amounts of blood loss that no human or lowblooded troll could have. Eridan had to get bisected to get killed and Feferi got her internal vital organs vaporized by wandmurder.

Next update might be this flash, but with John jumping around preventing deaths. In any case, it can only get better from here.
