Kanaya's outfit is so cool. She's really making that bioluminescence work for her, isn't she?
TEREZI: 1 4M SO SORRY YOU GUYS TEREZI: W3 4R3 4CTU4LLY 4 LOT COOL3R TH4N TH1S! DAVE: are you actually TEREZI: … TEREZI: NO
Coolness and awkwardness aren't mutually exclusive, Terezi. I can attest to that one personally.
KARKAT: WHAT IS HAPPENING NOW KARKAT: SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON. KARKAT: WHO'S THE LEADER NOW? KARKAT: ARADIA ARE YOU THE LEADER NOW KARKAT: OR IS IT ROSE "I HAVE AN IDEA, LET'S TAKE THE INVINCIBLE DEMON HEAD ON!" LALONDE. KARKAT: I NEED TO KNOW WHO THE LEADER IS
It's a complicated time for our Karkat. He's been defining himself as a leader since the beginning of Hivebent, but that role died with his session, and his status in this new hybrid team is unclear.
He should be able to relax a little - after all, the crisis he united the trolls to face has finally been averted, and the surviving Alternians are relatively safe. His job is done - but that job gave him purpose.
Who's the leader now, guys? And if I'm not the leader, then who the hell am I?
Also, can we take a moment to appreciate how goofy Rose's floatsprite is? It's like the Beta Asriel effect, but in reverse.
