You're all ignoring the most important part of this update. We're going to get to learn Bro's name.

JAKE ENGLISH. Ok, so we know Jane is the whatever of Life, and Jake is the whatever of Hope. (Bet you those'll be the next two godtier designs released!) What do you think Mom and Bro will be? Going to guess it's more we haven't seen yet. Maybe Void and Blood? Doom instead of Blood? SO CURIOUS.

Well there's been some hints that every session will have Time and Space. Doc Scratch mentioning the device to start the Scratch always being on the Hero of Time's planet, and then the consistencies between Jade and Kanaya. And speaking of that, it looks like Jake's the one with the ruin's this time so that would SEEM to indicate he'd be the Hero of Space

Though the LIFE and HOPE statements seem to be indicating something else, and it was never really flat out stated canonically that there must be Time and Space and that Jade and Kanay's similarities were nothing more then coincidence. Who knows. I don't trust anything anymore until we've seen a definite answer for it.

EDIT: WAIT! He's not the Hero of anything! He's actually Lord English! =O

'Cus you know, Jake ENGLISH, green skull symbol, would give his RIGHT LEG.

(Probably just Hussie purposefully fucking with the all the 'X IS LE!' theorists, haha)

Barry Broenheimer

EDIT: Well it'll need to be four letters to fit into the theme naming. Jack Strider?

A Scratched session is what preps the new world for Lord Egyptianface's arrival, right? So in this new session, there's an alternate Doc Scratch setting up for an alternate English to be born. Presupposing eventual success, he's Already Here in this new reality, too. That means he's been lurking in the background since the dawn of time - permitting him to influence alt-Earth's culture. Maybe he's become a legendary figure in their mythology.

EDIT: The idea of a second Lord English runnin' around would also fit into Gamzee's idea of mirthful messiahs. If you don't subscribe to the notion that English Prime is both of them (born of Doc Scratch as he is), then we need a second honking, universe-ending lunatic in clownface to turn up.

Lehki:

Also, what's up with the Troll text on the exile's monitor at the end of the flash? Or, wait... she's not in the game yet, so that wouldn't be her exile, would it? The hand's skin tone looks like a troll, so... a viewing station on the troll's asteroid that they'll use to view the new players once they navigate their way to that universe's Incipisphere? ... /speculate

Hussie hinted on his tumblr that it may be a thirteenth troll. Apparently the Caduceus is the thirteenth zodiac symbol.

More like he commented that a lot of people speculated about a 13th troll since the trolls were introduced.

I'm pretty sure that's Grandpa. Bro is one of the ????. Compare the paradox babies http://www.mspaintad...m/?s=6&p=003805 (How do I make the link into a word?)

I'm not quite sure what you're misinterpreting in what I said, besides that you seem to have misinterpreted it rather thoroughly.

That Jake English is Bro? We haven't seen the new version of Bro yet, Jake is Grandpa.

I didn't say that at *all*.

Spoonkind! I so called that... except somewhere else and then I didn't want to edit my post again.

And heeeeey, I spy a Matri-orb in that combo. If the Trolls can get their hands on the code for Jane's hat, and those two items that go with the Matri-orb to make it, maybe they could use it to figure out the code for a new Matri-orb. Like Sollux did with John's jetpack. Aradia could probably get his ghost to help with that. 0_0

Also yeah, Lilia, I have no idea how you could read Phoebus' post as that.

Neither do I, now that I've looked at it again. And I made sure to read it several times before responding >_>

UU? THIS DOES NOT FIT INTO MY LOVELY GCAT THING AUUUUGH

Anyway looks like the "thirteenth troll" does exist, how... interesting, I guess? TOO MANY TROLLS. I guess I was sort of all trolled out, and hoping that there wouldn't actually be a thirteenth troll. Especially since now everyone is going to be designing her. And arguing over what color blood she has, and what her horns must look like. Et cetera.

And Mom is almost assuredly Void, if those "dark patches" are any hint.

PENIS HORNS, WHITE BLOOD

THE PERFECT COMBINATION. Though something akin to penis horns might be likely if her horns try to mimic the Uranus symbol. Oh dear. The less we say on that the better, but I'll keep a wary eye out for any dick-horned speculative fan arts.

oh god but can you imagine how many "uranus" jokes will be made if she's a brownblood oh god no

I know I've already crashed notepad with my contributions to the fray. (the frayed lining of a sphincter that is oh ho snap)

The UU still had something to do with DNA, I forget exactly what though...

Anyway I guess there really won't be a Time and Space for the ancestors session, I am interested to see how that works out in regards to what we know about the game mechanics.

Also, I think Hussie is telling us that we will have to be patient as well, for the return of the pre-scratch kids.

Maybe the ancestors will be connected to the kids in a bifurcated fashion, like the Trolls session. UU did make reference to the fact they'd be meeting the kids. Even if the sessions aren't interwoven in some fashion, Jade and Dave could act as players-by-proxy to fulfill the Space and Time roles.
