Why did Dirk kill himself?

abraxocleaner-deactivated201506

Dirk sendificated his head in the past to Jake so he could kiss the head and wake up Dirk’s dream self. This allowed Dirk to get Roxy and Jane and bring them to Jake’s house so they could all enter the game together.

"sprite layering mechanics are gonna be a pain in the butt to figure out." Well I'm a pain in the butt so maybe I could help. When inanimate objects are prototyped first, they are represented with a symbol. When animate or deceased creatures are prototyped first, they appear as themselves with a ghostly lack of legs, this also applies if they are prototyped second. With the X2 sprite combo it became complex enough for legs to appear. 1: symbol 2: ghost 3(maybe 4?): full body. Simply speculation.

This take on it does make some sense. Hopefully sprite mechanics will be revealed in more detail soon.

When did Sollux & Feferi get together? Did Feferi always have feeling for him and he decided to be her matesprite?

Anonymous

Feferi mentions that they’re in a quadrant in this flash and Erisolsprite refers to one half of himself as being her former matesprit when speaking to Fefetasprite on this page. It’s likely that they only became matesprits after sgrub had begun but the details of their relationship and how it started aren’t shown in-comic.

What made the lime bloods go extinct? Was it Condy or did they eventually die out??

Calliope mentions here that the lime bloods were all “hunted to extinction” so they may have been killed off by Gl'bgolyb by order of the Condesce.

In this retconned timeline only Tavros was prototyped in Jane’s kernel sprite so Tavrissprite didn’t happen. Roxy buried GameOver!Rose on Lowas and Jaspersprite dug her up and prototyped her in Roxy’s kernel sprite.

Wait when was John prototyped with a bunny

He hasn’t, it’s just a theory going around since the other Beta kids have been prototyped with their associated animal.
