@Coelacanthwish Some people get really pressed if you refer to her as June, and for what reason? Why so aggressive, young man?
Not to mention the ones who respond with "erm, you know it's not in the comic, right?" as if that is suddenly going to make me change my ways and renounce my faith.
Okay sorry I posted a picture of this character pre-transition while also writing the name of the media wrong ๐ญ. Roxy Lalonde from Homestuck: beyond canon, Is a trans man. That's how it should've been but I posted it while being too sleepy
Likely goes without saying, but if you feel that the retcon is an example of bad writing and negatively affected Vriska from a writing standpoint, I disagree with that and I do not support you. Perhaps I will go into detail at some point, but I feel like it's fairly self-evident.
Sorry, I forgot that writing anything about Vriska attracts the same responses of "Ugh, and it was such a good story too until that dastardly Andrew Hussie ruined it with her retcon!"
Much of Vriska's character is the influence she leaves on other people. We see this directly and indirectly, through Tavros and Terezi and eventually June. She shapes June in her image, and tries to form June into the kind of Sburb player she looks up to.
@KnowingBetterYT It's hard to really argue against since it will inevitably be the groups of actual Albertans or Puerto Ricans who actually respond to you, so you struggle to convince them that they're rooting for a fake cause. But like, they're being psy-oped in real time, man. It's sad to see.
@KnowingBetterYT The Puerto Rican "independence movement" is giving me shades of Alberta's whole fling with independence. As in, it's definitely a very small amount of external actors mingling with fringe groups of actual Puerto Ricans to try to convince others that it's a nation-wide thing.

Personally, I don't believe you can understand one without understanding the other. Proper analysis of Vriska will always be incomplete without analyzing the effect she had on June, and the effect June had on her.
@gramaryeAnelli Rose is allergic to showing her emotions around other people. She keeps it bottled up forever, under the presumption that this is better for those around her.
