Description Time for more Rebelstuck designs!

Aradia and Vriska are also doubling as Rebellion spies and members of the Alternian Military. Vriska is part of an elite squadron of extremely powerful highblooded soldiers who are a crucial part of vanquishing planets for Her Imperious Condescension. Vriska is well-known for defeating an entire town on her own, an act that won her praises but cost her an arm. Aradia, meanwhile, is a science officer that researches planets before the trolls even think about conquering them. Her line of work mostly requires her to get on-planet and figure out the natives and the natural resources. No one attacks any planet before Aradia's team confirms it's worth conquering.

When they were young Vriska still tried jumping Tavros off a cliff, but without the intervention of Doc Scratch, Aradia and Terezi stopped her in time. After everyone but her neighbor cut ties with her and Terezi said some harsh words about Mindfang's journal, Vriska had to review her actions so far and figure out what the hell went wrong. It took a while, including taking a plunge off the deep end and resurfacing, but Vriska managed to grow the hell up, mellow down a little and stop trying to emulate her ancestor. Eventually she won Tavros' trust back, and they settled into an enviable moirallegiance. Vriska initially joined the Rebellion for Tavros' sake, but she's grown to actually care about the cause, if only because of her friends. Bitch DOES care when given the chance.

Everyone who goes planetside gets Pistolkind or Riflekind, and they're all rayguns that utilize the same energy as Eridan's Ahab's Crosshairs. When Vriska goes on missions she uses a specialized mechanical arm equipped with a retractable plasma blaster.

Very nice designs dude. Very sleek designs and outfits.

I'm a little confused though. In hivebent, Vriska had no intention of actually killing Tavros until Doc Scratch convinced her, and he also blocked Aradia and Terezi from interfering so they couldn't keep an eye on Tavros and Vriska. The event wouldn't have happened at all if Doc Scratch was against it.

@_@ Sorry, I'm just a little confused.

The think about Doc Scratch is that he has no presence in Rebelstuck at all. In any case, I don't think Doc Scratch had to do much convincing to get her to walk Tavros off the cliff. Vriska being Vriska, I think she would've tried either way, and would've just found a different excuse. She is also a very short-sighted individual, so had Doc Scratch not distracted Aradia and Terezi, she probably wouldn't have considered them a factor, leaving them perfectly able to surprise her and interfere.

So in Rebelstuck, Vriska figured making Tavros jump off a cliff would make him sprout wings like the Summoner and tried it during a Flarp session, albeit somewhat later than in canon since she needed to convince herself, and Aradia and Terezi figured out what was going on and stopped her.

Hmm, I guess I can understand that, relating to the Summoner and all. The cliff she chose would obviously be a lot shorter and less lethal, since she made clear in the homestuck that before Doc Scratch, she considered her friends off limits for killing. Still, the fall would have still have been dangerous, and Terezi and Aradia would definitely given her a piece of their mind. One thing though. Although she's short sighted when it comes to responsibilities, she's not shortsighted when it comes to plans. She would have considered both of them, even an idiot would and Vriska is not stupid, but she most likely would have wanted Terezi the chance to stop her. She does that for decisions involving their friends, as shown recently.

Sorry if it sounds like I'm nitpicking, its just that I really really like your story, and I just want to get the facts straight.

What kind of deep end break does she have anyway? After realizing she was losing all her friends because of her murdering for spider food fate and lifestyle, she had a breakdown, killed her lucus, and went into hiding until she was of age(to not be culled without a lucus) and prioritized all her friends?

Vriska can be extremely short-sighted about plans too. Like the whole plan to erase the bad things by fighting Jack Noir on her own, completely forgetting her fairy dust trail will probably kill everyone else and make it a moot point? She considered she might die, but not the other part, relying on her luck. Vriska is almost a sweep younger when she tries to walk Tavros off a cliff, too, so her ability to make plans and think ahead isn't as developed in the first place.

Vriska is not stupid, but she's impulsive and selfish and it hinders her.

...However did you guess what happens to Vriska during her breakdown? 0_0 She does end up killing her lusus and going into hiding for a while. She doesn't stay there too long, though, Nepeta and Pounce de Leon find her when she's 7 and Equius and Aurthour take her in. She owes them her life, which is another step she takes towards becoming less of a bitch.

Agreed about her lack of thinking when she was 5 sweeps, although its less selfishness nowadays, and more along the lines of desperation combined self-centered responsibility, being the only known troll god on the asteroid. When all your friends on being killed off by murderers on two fronts, their aren't many bad options. Vriska had no options left. I mean, what was to be done? Jack was going to find them eventually. Karkat's and Jade's plan was being fubar'ed at the time by Gamzee (what with him killing everyone). Vriska knew about the fairy dust trail from Terezi, but if Vriska succeeded it wouldn't have mattered. She could win, go back, and help Terezi and the others defeat Gamzee.

Who would guess that Jack would delay a challenge? Scratch made a point that Jack actively changed his killing philosophy to be more methodical and cruel in comparison to our simple and serviceable style of Spades Slick.

She had to choose between 1)a possible immediate win or a possible immediate loss and 2) an assured loss when Jack eventually finds the asteroid. Considering the desperation in the situation, her knowledge of the enemy, she made a well thought out decision. Just not as thought out as Terezi's. The charm of Vriska's character is how imperfect she is, both her serious flaws and her attempts to better herself.

Shit, sorry for rambling about this, but I find discussions like this very interesting.

Really?! I did guess it?! Woah. I just thought the most logical breakdown for her would involve, I never thought I would get it right. That is nice that Equius would take care for her, but it makes sense, Equius must like Vriska for being a good neighbor to him growing up despite his freakish strength.
