Tavros Nitram and Vriska Serket from Homestuck are moirails!

Hmm! If anything, Ragatha seems more like “a Kanaya” to me than “a Tavros,” especially with what we learn about her in the last episode. Kanaya and Ragatha are both people who struggle to balance their relationship with “The Problem Girl” at the expense of themselves, who feel responsible for supporting the her even if it hurts them and denies them their own feelings.

Gangle and Tavros are both seen as The Victims of the Problem Girl, both by everyone around them (who interestingly are quick to blame the Problem Girl and think of her as an Evil Villain for it but don’t do anything to Actually Help her Victim beyond surface level platitudes [Zooble is an outlier in this comparison]) and internally, and both Gangle’s and Tavros’s character arcs involve them not feeling defined as people by that Bully/Victim dynamic anymore. And both of them come out of it on way better terms with Jax/Vriska than their respective fans think they should be lol

Also, both Vriska and Jax start bullying them in the first place partially in order to maintain a flawed inhuman worldview they have, and in both cases that worldview starts to crack after the dynamic is broken (by Tavros’s death in homestuck’s case, by The Events Of Episodes 6 and 8 in tadc’s case)
