That's all well and good and I like it, but Hussie more or less promised the sky,

Terezi got the sky!

I'm starting to get the impression that Skaia is not the innocent center of untapped creative potential we've been assuming it to be. The Alternian sun blinded Terezi, but what about Dream Terezi? It's hard to tell if she's also blinded, but if so, it would be Skaia's doing.
Somthing else bothers me. For a while I've been going on the assumption that one's dream self is determined by the person in question's introspective view. Thus why we have two Dream Solluxes and no Dream Aradia, and posslibly (but now in doubt) why Dream Terezi is blind. However, in the flash Dream Vriska still has a biological arm, throwing my entire idea out the window.

Oh, and Vriska is almost certainly alive. We have seen from Sollux that a dream self can go on without its real self, but we know all the trolls "survive" in one way or another to communicate with the kids.

Oh, for the love of Lord English.

No, Eridan's been the pansy of the group for far too long. A wildly misguided, outright homicidal quest for vengeance against imagined wrongs against him would be FAR MORE THAN ENOUGH to catapult him straight from least favorite to MOST favorite troll.

It's still the same if he's going after Feferi though, heh.

I think that might be my favorite close up of anything in MSPA. John shaking his fist at the imps on his pogo ride and pretty much any shot of SS glaring at anything through those slits he sees through come close though.

In Terezi's and Karkat's most recent conversation Terezi theorized that her dreamself is blind because that's what she projects herself as. She doesn't really want to able to see.

Tavros wants to walk and Vriska isn't too happy about losing her eye and arm, so that's what they project their dreamselves to be.

Then let his petty revenge fantasy include'em BOTH then! I want some fighting! I want blood! With everyone involved! I won't be satisfied until the battlefield looks like a motherfucking rainbow just puked it's guts out!

Terezi said, if coyly, that her dream-self was blind because she didn't want to see.  Aradia's is dead, Sollux's was identical to his normal self (and apparently either his lacked the dream-like personality of dream-selves, or having returned to the waking world, acts like a normal person).  We already knew Vriska's dream-self still had it's 7eye, so I suspect, given the way she acts, that Vriska never let go of her old vision-eightfold self image, hence the fetishistic breaking of eightballs and such.  (And yeah, Tavros' still has legs because he still wants legs.)  Also note that we don't actually know what she looks like concurrent to the kids' game, only that she's still alive and doing stuff.

[Retro]

The difference between dream selves and normal selves seems a lot like identical people except dream versions can fly. I mean, there isn't really a 'dream world' per se. Prospit and Derse aren't restricted to the dreamfolk, they're just places. And seeing as the planets and Skaia are all nearby, and there's atmosphere around the entire Medium, having a dreamself is really like never having to take a break to sleep and you can fly half the time, only half of the time you magically appear somewhere else.

Dream Vriska's hero mode looks like Jade.

Yea, there was a brief image near the very end (right before the slap) where her position was EXACTLY the same as we saw Jade in once. Probably Hussie reusing sprites there.

Or planting subliminal messages that will cause all his fans to eventually suffer a psycological break and buy all his products.

[Bandages]

Vriska takes so much crap from every character, though.

Ugh, she is so likable because of how pathetic she is, and still she is just whomped every fucking scene in this flash.

Or it could just be a callback.

Watching this again, I think is going to shut down his comic for a week to let other people draw half his flash for him, he could either A) post some of the art, or B) screen it more.  The high-color stuff is all great, but some of the extra, other-people-made character sprites are just plain ugly.
