John is surprisingly verbose in this update.

Why doomed John Egbert is incredibly tragic.

So while re-reading homestuck I noticed something about doomed john.

His corpse was apparently burned.

But his denizen uses wind powers. 

So I was thinking, when does air burn you? And it hit me. 

Steam. Doomed John was boiled to death. 

And remember, his denizen gave him the choice between being allowed to leave fine and living out his days in a doomed timeline, or sacrificing himself so that dave becomes davesprite which allows the alpha universe to exist. John Egbert cares enough about his friends that he gave his consent to being BOILED ALIVE to let them win the game.

THOSE HUMMING BIRDS

THEY ONLY APPEAR WHEN SOME ONE IS GOING GOD TIER

AND GUESS WHO JUST DIED DOING SOMETHING HEROIC

Actually, no.

Long rant below.

Those hummingbirds are just an example of LOFAF’s fauna, and only appeared for Jade’s ascension, as she was in her land when she was placed on her quest bed.

They’re pointed out in the picture because, as Hussie does, he repurposed a previous page, like this one;

There’s always something pointed out to being everywhere, there’s also another one pointing tiny dice.

The hummingbirds are there because they are just there, in her land.

They didn’t appear for John, who is another character we saw ascend, instead there were fireflies, which is part of the fauna of his land.

There’s no relevance to the hummingbirds, and even if there were, Karkat’s not a space player, and why would they appear when Karkat wasn’t on a Quest Slab, anyway?

Also- what heroic deed?

Karkat didn’t jump in front of Kanaya, Jane was going for him in the first place as an example of her Life powers for Kanaya. If she wanted to kill Kanaya, she’d simply use her life powers, as Jade literally just explained.

There’d be no point in stabbing her.

I think you guys are really grasping at straws when it’s not even warranted; Jade literally got done explaining how Jane can bring people back to life.

LOOK! LOOK AT THIS!

JOHN LEFT THE COMIC!

THAT IS WHY JADE CAN’T FIND HIM!

BECAUSE THAT MOTHER FUCKER LEFT THE COMIC!

why doesn’t this have more notes that windy thing right there was one of the most awesome examples of the panels being messed with omg i can’t even be coherent right now

That’s why I love this comic so much

it’s challenging all the restrictions of the media and it’s so cool

so i hope that this zapping thing is a power john can control now because it (and him turning into thin air) might be the only things that can stand up against jade’s godmode spacey powers
