wait, then he'll be dead half the time and manic the rest?
Or even worse: dead half the time and depressive the rest.

I take it that Sollux can't become a troll soul like Aradia. Well, I suppose this lets us know the further boundaries of the game interface, as to whether or not the cursor can manipulate the corpse of the player, if not the player while he's living.

That makes me wonder though, would the great glub have even effected Aradia?

According to Andrew, the higher the psychic ability, the more a Vast Glub would affect them. The lower castes have a higher chance of being psychically gifted.

So Aridia, being powerful enough to decapitate a massive stone frog with just one swoop of one hand...

Aridia would litterally have her mind blown. It would be blown right out her ears.

Yeah, but she's dead. She doesn't actually have a brain. Would the psychic shockwave destroy her ghost or something?

Not that it matters, since she's more or less the one who orchestrated this whole thing in the first place.

Only thing though, the only time we've seen him use his psychic powers when not under the influence of mind honey was at the beginning when he accidentially sliced up what would be the equivalent of a network mainframe. His making the bees take a nap probably wasn't using his powers as he wasn't glowing or anything.

So, we haven't been able to see his potential when not under the influence of mind honey. We all know what he's like when he is though.

Deep down, I wish that Hivebent was it's own story, so that Andrew didn't feel obligated to skim over most of the story to get to the important bits just to get things done.

What the hell is Gamzee doing anyway? He's flipping out in the background with the word "Honk" above his head.

I bet Sollux is going to be "revived" from an alternate timeline where the troll's chain for entering their medium fell apart, and Sollux was the only survivor due to finishing a device to take him to another timeline where this didn't happen just as the Vast Glub goes out.

I'm still betting it's alchemy. Also, he might have a bunch of ~ATH programs set to execute at his death. That seems to be more or less the only thing they're good for. That and viruses.

Yeah, but like Bad Future Dave, Bad Even Worse Future Sollux would justify a flash animation, like the one that's coming up.

Karkat's tears are red. Blood is the catch-all body fluid for Trolls. That's it. I was fucking right. Yay me.

This being Homestuck, I'm not sure whether that's post-scratch Rose or Vriska with a wig.

Oh hey, I just thought, If Sollux is prototyped with his Sprite, which is already a two-headed creature, then the finished sprite might be one Sollux head with both blue eyes, and another with both red eyes. Each one can represent one side of his bipolar personality!

That'd be pretty cool.
