so rose was the only one to go genuinely grimdark? so any speculation we have about it is strictly based off of rose? like, we don't even know if it was JUST something that happened to rose or could happen to anyone?

Yep

Wasn't Gamzee thrown into the ocean to wait until it was the time for him to raise the Cali siblings?

That’s what Vriska said the plan was, but we don’t know 5sure

Didn't ectobiology also create the mutant cats running around (Prof.) Roxy Lalonde's lab? As I recall, those were all created from Paradox Slime made from Jaspers' template.

What happened to Gamzee in the new universe?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don't think going Grim dark causes you to lose your ability to speak english. Rose was probably a special case, eridan went grimdark and he could still speak english. Also. Jade never reached godtier. She reached dogtier.

Eridan didn’t go Grimdark, that’s a common misconception 

So like what was the whole "patron troll" thing?

For the kids it’s the troll they interacted with the most prior to Act 6. John-Vriska, Dave-Terezi, Jade-Karkat, Rose-Kanaya

What and how and where and why is even inversion?

You can read the full theory here.  But in short, when a player is overly resistant to their role or if they are corrupted by an outside source then their role will inverse meaning that their aspect and class unofficially shift to their opposites. Light to Void, Space to Time, Witch to Seer*.

*This can change depending on how you classify the classes into Active/Passive partnerships

What theory? About Eridan's gills, I mean =O

konansgirlfriend

There’s an old theory that Eridan’s gills are deformed and don’t work as well as they should and that he wears his scarf to cover them. It would explain why he spends so much time above the water, even having his hive on the surface.

Jade going grimbark had nothing to do with the horror terrors, which is something that going grimdark requires right? Jade was just being mind controlled by condy.

Right

...which trolls (other than karkat and kankri) are mutants?

Sollux, Mituna, Rufioh, Possibly the Serkets (we aren’t sure about the vision eightfold), and maybe Eridan if you subscribe to the theory that his gills are deformed
