I am not sure how a flashback that is just confirming something we may have already suspected and that did not seem to teach her anything is going to change many opinions, but I may be misinterpreting something.

It's not about changing opinions.  It's about enjoying it while you can.  This is probably as much as there's going to be in the Vriska's Comeuppance Department.  Yes, clarifying something that already happened, which she already profited from, is as good as it's going to get.

Although this is probably going to be a pretty good story, seeing as Dave intimated how Terezi wouldn't shut up about her.

Tavros didn't really do it, did he? Remember Page: Quickly Retrieve Arms ? I think.... no... maybe.... he killed Vriska? That seems just a bit out of character aside from him bathing in self confidence.

Never-mind, that's probably a quest bed. Maybe.

No no no no no. This is Vriska right after Make Her Pay.

You know, when Vriska was a somewhat sympathetic character before she started recklessly killing people in her own quest for glory.

*sigh*

I am not sure how a flashback that is just confirming something we may have already suspected and that did not seem to teach her anything is going to change many opinions, but I may be misinterpreting something.

I think it's more to act a counterpoint against John's ascension to the god tiers. Where as for John it was heroic and he didn't have a choice, for Vriska it will be a conscious decision so she can get more powerful.

You see the spider legs next to her...?

Yes, this is definitely right after the second Make Her Pay. We don't have a view of her right eye, but the right arm is gray. Metallic, unlike her other hand. On a Quest Bed.

This has got me thinking.

What if Terezi is manipulating Vriska? If Vriska's luck is as certain as Vriska believes that means that Terezi can account for it, and since she's the Seer of Mind she knows exactly what Vriska is thinking, and more importantly, knows exactly what to do to get Vriska to do what she wants, without Vriska being aware that she's being manipulated.

I half-expect that this is exactly what's going on, and is about the sort of twist I'd expect from Hussie.

And so, it turns out that the crux of the whole story was that Aradia had to "make" Vriska, Terezi had to control her, so that she would properly manipulate John into doing his godlike stuff, so that Kanaya could talk Rose into saving the universe by trying to talk her out of it because she was so burned out from dealing with Vriska.

That's only six of sixteen players.  This story has a lot of moving parts.

So suddenly Terezi is creepier than Vriska.

totally called Vriska = Pawn.

Do remember that the Black Queen commented on how she was going to manipulate Terezi, though...

We have not gotten to the chess master yet.

Vriska was never creepy. Vriska is just plain evil bitch. Terezi isn't really so much creepy as ominous and mysterious (classical seer) anyway.
