Fridgestuck: Vriska Serket (Facts/Theories)

[@theKobaltPossum]

I like the idea that when Vriska turns all her vowels into 8s, she gets a southern accent.

[@nathanbrown8680]

On shoes: Vriska is a thief, an active class. Rose is a seer, a passive class. Aranea is a sylph, also passive. BKE thought that every aspect has two shoe colors given to active and passive classes respectively, mostly based on light god tier shoe colors.

[@butlerkitty]

oh this is a good theory

[@aleksabanjevic8316]

Not sure if this is true, I think eriden and cronus have the same shoe color, even tho prince and Bard are one of the few canonical passive active opposites

[@tabbender1232]

If Vriska hadn't "created" Bec Noir the trolls would have ruled over the kids universe, society would have been very different there and most likely things like The Condesce infiltrating humanity wouldn't have happened. There would definitely be some kind of unclosed time loop, which would have resulted in a doomed timeline. Of course that's ignoring the fact that Bec Noir showed up before Vriska decided to do anything.

Just a little reminder (in case you missed any update videos in the last month or two) that new Fridgestuck episodes will premiere every even month of 2020, usually on the 13th. Odd numbered months will have videos about Homestuck and other fandoms, they just won't be Fridgestucks. :D

[@cgoose500]

Remember how Aranea switched the story to a doomed timeline and then everyone died and John retconed stuff based on the doomed timeline? What do you think the alpha timeline was actually like?

[@jacketofdiamonds]

I think Aranea did actually successfully Sylph-of-Light that into the alpha timeline as part of her plan, forcing paradox space/fate/God/whatever to give John the power to rewrite the alpha timeline.

[@cgoose500]

@@jacketofdiamonds I meant the original alpha timeline before Aranea replaced it What would that have been like

[@jacketofdiamonds]

​@@cgoose500 Actually, maybe it was always the alpha timeline. John being forced to retcon everything by Game Over also brought back Vriska, who put Jade to sleep and led the charge to take down Jane. If Jane and Jade had been on the Condesce's side in the Collide battle, Jade wouldn't have been corralling the dogs, but more importantly, Jane probably wouldn't have been willing to heal the various deaths. So maybe Aranea was always meant to change the timeline in the weird way that everything in Homestuck retroactively causes itself to happen.

[@puddel9079]

@@jacketofdiamonds Aranea never intended to fix things by accidentally going on a suicide mission. She *had* planned on dooming as many timelines as possible; in essence, take a sledgehammer to as many transformer boxes until something breaks. She really didn't know what she was doing or what it may have entailed. P.S.: As for the "alpha" timeline, LE's version, I prefer to refer to that as the "False Alpha Timeline." Inevitably it would recreate the same scenario ad infinitum.

[@lordbuss]

The original alpha-timeline can be what BKEW described in all his theories, Trickster Vriska stealing the light of the green sun, LE possessing Jake , all things working by classical narrative arcs, all foreshadowing and checkovs guns fulfilled (and the retcon could be a meta explanation for why the foreshadowing was not fulfilled). Although LE also probably wins, because everything was orchestrated by him (partially through Doc Scratch), and he is already in a perfect situation to win, the only thing that changed was the retcon. There is also "altstuck", which i think is based on this premise.

Around 10:30 That’s a gre8t character writing, like Scorpio + 8th sign = a person who’s vindictive, jealous, chaotic plus prone to LOVE and OBSESSION(especially to number. 8)

[@fran-mg]

Vriska could also reference the card game known as Briscola (in other places known as Brisca). It could relate to luck, something commonly associated with the Light aspect.

[@w1tchysounds207]

The blue John fact killed me. Im typing from my grave as we speak

[@AlexMcMund]

Sometimes I wonder if Hussie really that much of a genius he was able to so SO many intertwining references and allusions into all his characters or if he just got stupidly lucky. It's really hard to tell with him...

[@lordbuss]

Most of them are luck, but he is genius in his ability to cultivate this kind of luck, and make intentional things based on accidental connections.

[@queenaraphel7154]

Wait so this show has gone on for this long and there hasn't been a Vriska episode until now... We've been ignoring a character that has ALL OF THE RELEVANCE!!!!

[@michaelliggett1622]

If I remember due to off hands comments she made in previous videos. She has her own problems with vriska

[@JohnVance]

I’d forgotten just how unbelievably amazing After Us is.

[@aritimena]

I think Vriska has said before that red is her favorite color (something she shares with Terezi) and that she wears red shoes cause she thinks it's lucky

[@marleythekid8320]

TZ's favorite is red too.

[@nathanematherne]

I think the shoe color tells us whether the player's class is passive or active. Seer and Sylph are passive classes, while Thief is an active class. In other words, those with "cool" colors (i.e. blue, cyan, green, etc.) are passive classes, while those with "hot" colors (i.e. red, orange, yellow, etc.) are active classes.

[@chromeCommodore]

"Vriska" is also similar to the croatian word "vrisak" meaning "screech"

[@TartiMaarti]

I was unreasonably excited for this ep, I’ve never clicked so fast

[@Pixaurora]

when you said "blue john" i yelled "WHAT" at my screen, i was expecting it to be called octet or something

[@-kenik9629]

Yep, the Light aspect is about information, meaning, and luck, specifically the reduction of unwanted probabilities. Light is also about the information you recieve, as each particle of light from a distant star travels countless miles only to meet its end either in your eye, or against any random rock. Void is about distraction, unimportance, and proficency( that is where skill renders luck meaningless). Void is also intuition I guess? Knowledge had without any kind of direct information. I love the opposing aspect thing for exactly how much it helps to understand the squerrelier aspects.

[@drakath5727]

So Vriska rolls Blue Johns.

[@florianricquart4114]

I don't see why you say that light is in Hope's domain. You show Jake's Hope Sphere, but considering Aranea, the Sylph (one who creates) of Light, caused it to happen by forccefully healing Jake, it's quite possible that the light of the sphere comes from the Light player

Vriska was always destined to make Bec Noir, if she hasn’t we would be viewing a doomed timeline where everyone dies, she really didn’t have a choice especially with Trollian letting her basically see into the future.

Actually, John was about to add a harlequin missing the opposite arm from the one he had prototypes into Jade’s Kernelsprite. If Vriska hadn’t interrupted, it’d be impossible to use the rings because their arms would both vanish when they put it on, which would make a doomed timeline with a literally impossible boss.

Vriska really wanted a piece of that Blue John

[@lunarlite6294]

Did you know that breaking a leg is a figure of speech to tell someone good luck. So Vriska just wanted to grant Tavros good luck.

[@CrowCoded]

It should be noted that Vriska's line are the only fucking trolls to have boobs and I find that fucking funny and iconic.

[@lordbuss]

12:40 And also of a powergamer in RPG. 13:30 Not really. The universe already had cancer, and Vriska's actions didn't really cause the rise of Bec Noir, because Bec would prototype himself in any case. So putting John to sleep means the kernel can be prototyped by dream-Jade, so she could save everyone in Cascade. 14:16 But also importance and knowledge, both as the character knowing things, and the character wants to be known. As a Thief of Light, Vriska takes the importance from everyone, literally steals the spotlight, and wants everyone to know this. Light is also relevance and agency, and she steals relevance and agency from others, literally mindcontrolling them and deciding what should they do.

[@noravargas7653]

Now THIS, is something to get exited over

[@tiildeath]

notably 8 is also a lucky number in chinese culture!!! which ties in with light as an aspect with strong ties to luck, and of course with vriska having 'aaaaaaaall the luck.'

[@dietben9309]

Maybe the reason why she’s lucky is because the Warhammer 40k Orks believe that Blue is a lucky color

[@puddel9079]

Vriska never suffers consequences for her actions? Excuse me?

[@tirox8834]

Yeah, it's not like she lost her arm and some of her eyes, had almost everyone hate her, got beaten to a pulp and bled to death to then get revived again only to get stabbed to death by her best friend and die for good to then date a version of John who then got killed by LE, merge with the person she bullied, get another partner only to then be dumped for not being evil enough and then to top it all of got bullied by another version of herself and got forgotten by everyone and lost all relevance in the story. And the new vriska got hit in the head by the sky and got sucked into a black hole before she could witness the conclusion to all her hard work and then got plopped out in what must be her worst nightmare, the least cannon/relevant part of paradox space. Oh, and then she got fucked by a clown. That all happened. But yaknow. No consequences or anything.

[@puddel9079]

@@tirox8834 I mean, her friends (starting out) weren't just hateful (underhanded and openly) toward her, they were scared of her. Except Eridan, he was too focused on himself to appear scared or hateful around Vriska. Guess that's why she tolerated him...
