Somewhat late to the pronounciation party, but here it is. This also led me to realise I have no idea how to describe a guttural r. I guess I'll just indicate those.

Since the update is taking forever and a half to occur, let's hypothesize about what will happen in said update. (Yes, hypothesize, not theorize. If I see someone say "I have a theory about blah," one more time, I will punch them. I do not know how, but I WILL.)

Here is what I think will happen in a nutshell: Dave will continue to freak out, and Jade will try to 'comfort' him. She will manipulate his feelings for her, to 'convince' him to join )(IC. He will agree and join her. And there you have it. Dave will have joined the 'dark side' by 'will'. from the promise of sloppy makeouts, that is.,

That or he will say 'no way' and have him self teleported to Derse's Jail or be just left there on L.o.h.a.C.

I hypothesize that pretty much nothing significant will happen, and we'll just cut to the next part of the Menu of Freedom.

Yeah I'm basically thinking that.  It's a very natural ship, and as space/time players they have chemistry.  Heck!  As ironic insincere / sincere gullible couble they have chemistry.  Even though Rose/John was emphasized in that one flash, I think Dave-Jade is a better match.

Which adds a (possible) layer of meaning underneath all these GrimBark-Dave interactions.  Particularly since Rose only really seemed interested in John when she was grimdark.  I will be surprised if we don't see at least *some* reference to Jade/Dave in this.  It could go either way, but unless I'm mistaken we did recently find out that Dave isn't so into Terezi anymore (He doesn't get hateromance and isn't willing to put up with it, whether she be with Karkat or Gamzee.  Parentheses because I really don't remember Dave's reaction).  If I'm right and they are growing apart, Jade/Dave is looking better than ever.

Which, uh, to bring it back to the next update, means there will be *some* romantic tension.  In my humble opinion.

I know, but the point was to read them off as if they were from a distinct and consistent troll language, rather than as from their original derivations.

Oh, you guys are doing the pronounciation thing? In IPA?


Here my version(if I were to pronounce them out loud), based on Hubris' first one(thanks by the way):

All I can say is welcome, to the mini-hiatus. Today is the fourth day since the last update.

I'm pretty sure this is the only time they actually met in person, so that probably had something to do with that.
