#gamrezi

Like, really, she's just uncomfortably tolerating this until Vriska helps her? To me it feels like a parody of how people might perceive gamrezi when they don't think too hard about it, making Terezi into a simple, perfect victim of him, rather than someone who intentionally sought out something she knew was bad for her the same way she kept drinking the soda even though she said she didn't like it anymore. So I don't think a relationship with Gamzee is something Terezi would even consider in a timeline where she didn't kill Vriska, because if she didn't kill Vriska, she doesn't have enough to feel guilty over, unless what she feels guilty over is the fact that she was prepared to kill Vriska and knew she did go through with it in a different timeline. (Or she might also consider the relationship to try and keep Gamzee away from Karkat, but that is more seriously my own personal conjecture and probably deserves a different post. And in any case, post-retcon Terezi very notably thinks much less about Karkat than she used to.)

Anyway, it is pretty common parlance nowadays to say that the epilogues are Homestuck fanfic, or at least a parody of it. But did you know that Homestuck was actually a fanfic of itself far before that, and Terezi wrote it?

Sometimes I think about them and go a little bit insane
