Hmmm... Off-subject slightly, but I've been thinking about Li'l Cal.

My thinking is that he's not just a juju. Note that anytime a Cherub or the representation of a cherub got Tricksterized, they turned into Cal lookalikes. In essence, Cal is the image of a tricksterized Cherub.

Now, Hussie has stated that the Trickster power-up is effectively a trap. It's an attempt to shortcut personal growth by becoming stupidly powerful and plowing through/ignoring one's issues.

And as Sburb is itself all about personal growth - it could even be stated that personal growth is required in order to complete the game - Trickster mode is effectively a honey trap: It tempts you with all that power, but you cannot satisfactorily progress in the game while using it. So my guess is that Caliborn, hatching out of Li'l Cal, has effectively perma-trickstered himself. He's under the mother of all cheat codes.

And my second guess is that Caliborn never completed his session. His session is a dead session, the most difficult of all sessions, and Caliborn has been failing it at every turn. By killing Calliope he ruined his own cherubic maturation process, he's been trying to skip all the content, and he's made it clear he'd jump at the chance to Tricksterize himself. I'm fairly certain he's made it impossible to win his own session. In fact, I'd guess that the Troll and Kid sessions are all subsessions of Cal's - they are part of his own session working to bring him down now that he's fallen into its trap.

That's how I'm starting to read things. Lord English cannot win. Not because of narrative reasons or predestination, but simply because he's been continuously hosing himself over from day one.

I don't expect a crazy/jealous outburst here. Karkat's stressed and worried, and the fact that they're mere hours from beginning their biggest challenge yet, no one is responding, and my patron troll (who was one of his most reliable and competent remaining teammates), is being a pantsless Faygo-swilling layabout. Dave, Rose, and Kanaya are probably off doing some nonsense or other, and we can trust Gamzee exactly not at all (who wants to bet he's the one who pulls a WHAT A TWIST moment and betrays the meteor kids?)

Stupid teens, get off your arses and get ready to save the world already!

Yeah, it'll just be a regular outburst. A "DO YOU FUCKERS REALIZE WE'VE REACHED SKAIA WE GOTTA GET READY" outburst.

It's good to see Karkles again.  I kinda think he understands exactly what he's looking at and doesn't mind.  Maybe he plans to make a time-sharing proposition like the one he offered Dave, but for now he has bigger issues to freak out over (the ride never stops)

Pantskat, and Pantless Terezi otp.

In either case, they have to get off of the meteor, the only one shown to be on it is Gamzee, or they'll be Reckoned.

She'd probably live, especially with two-fold high psionics-telekinesis.

Not exactly the sort of shenanigans I was expecting, but more importantly...

Wait...

Jake's pantlessness was the last thing noticed before shit hit the fan.

Terezi's pantsless, and there's no further updates.

I'm predicting the excrement will hit the rotational device on the meteor, we cut to the battleship, and the same thing happens.

If you remember Rose's conversation with Kanaya earlier, Karkat, Terezi, and Gamzee are in deep shit. I wouldn't be surprised that Karkat was the one who pissed off Gamzee. Gamzee's taking LE's side just to oppose Karkat since the latter joined Meenah's army(?).

Didn't he say that all the trolls would die? Unless I don't remember him stating that Gamzee would be the exception...
