I just feel in my bones that this session will not play as normal, because if it did, that's a good thing for both Dirk and Rose, but mostly Dirk. I think something bad will happen that will make playing it seem like a terrible idea. I also just have this theory that while the whole theme of Homestuck is that there are horrible cycles of abuse, the newer characters we have are being set up to break those cycles for themselves by playing the game.

I have this theory that the four Earth C kids, and the kids on Deltritus, are going to be playing the game in a way that doesn't satisfy the adults who made them play it in the first place, so that way it's still played but on their terms and stuff.
