I am loving the expressions throughout this whole update. The last panel is amazing, and I love it.

Either Terezi is secretly faster than crap, or Gamzee is only fast as crap when it's funny/terrifying.

[Sergarr]

Or when he's in MURDER MODE.

You can see how the MURDER MODE looks here, at the left side of the screen.

Notice how it instantly ends after he notices John appearing. The clown appears to have a critical weakness to "what the fuck".

[Osmosis Jones]

Dat costume change. Impressive that she managed to demolish Gamzee, tie him, AND THEN change into correct legislacerator garb in such a short time frame.

Edoot: Also, she avoided this.

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

Edoot: Also, she avoided this.

Called by Sergarr:

Like that Homestuck Disk 2. Maybe something of that nature?

Likely effect called by myself:

Maybe preventing Scratch from getting his hands on the disk?

[Sergarr]

That's what, second prediction of mine which became true?

Time to predict even more stuff!

Uhhhhhhhh

Oh, how about this one: Next update will be a flash in which John will warp directly into the path of Terezi's sword-cane and heroically die, saving Vriska...

(that would be extremely stupid if that happened)

I'm gonna go for him interfering when Terezi decided to regain her eyesight.

[Sergarr]

John said there's only one more instruction written on the scarf, and I'd say Vriska's more important for Terezi than her eyesight.

[King Kravoka]

John said there's only one more instruction written on the scarf, and I'd say Vriska's more important for Terezi than her eyesight.

The last instruction might actually be to prevent her from making the choice to fix her eyesight.

[Bauglir]

Yeah, not sure. Vriska's still probably going to die as it stands, because what made Terezi do it was the knowledge that letting her go gets everyone killed.

Now, I expect that Terezi's eyesight is getting unfixed, but what I don't know is if it's going to be because she has John go and stop her directly, or if it's a butterfly effect from having him stop her from killing Vriska, thereby averting the major catalyst for the guilt spiral that included the eye-fixing.

[Sergarr]

John said there's only one more instruction written on the scarf, and I'd say Vriska's more important for Terezi than her eyesight.

The last instruction might actually be to prevent her from making the choice to fix her eyesight.

But that would be thematically stupid, since all previous instructions were about changing something in the chain-link of events which led to Terezi killing Vriska. And she said herself that she regret having to kill her.

Leaping after doing all that to randomly fixing eyesight would be thematically inappropriate.

Maybe John will have to directly show up and prevent Vriska from going there himself.

[Graknorke]

Yeah, not sure. Vriska's still probably going to die as it stands, because what made Terezi do it was the knowledge that letting her go gets everyone killed.

Though a huge contributor was Gamzee's manipulation, which caused the whole thing to be hugely confrontational from the start. The false murder accusations, being provoked by the note...
Terezi even mentions herself that she wishes there was a different way to have done it, and we get a sort of interesting reply from the exposition fairy:

AG: At that moment, perhaps.
AG: You know very well the channels of possi8ility at that exact juncture resulted from her decision paths as well as yours.

Terezi is obviously trying to change the situation it occurred in, and perhaps in doing so opening up a new course of action.
