Dirk always had control of his dreamself, so does that mean the kiss that AR urged between Jake and headless Dirk wasn't necessary whatsoever? So in other words it was just part of AR's, and possibly also Dirk's, manipulative schemes to mess with jake?

No, it was necessary. Dirk’s dreamself was knocked out at the time and the kiss woke him up.

What happened to the Condesce in Pre-Scratch Earth?

No, Aradia’s dreamself was killed by Bec Noir while on her slab which is why she ascended.  Since she died before the game started her dreamself his not take on her wounds.

Who or what determines the Alpha Timeline? If Paradox Space determines it, then why are there failed sessions unless those are apart of Paradox Space's "plan"?

The Alpha timeline is the once that leads to the birth of a new universe.  Doomed timelines are supposed to happen, occasionally doomed timelines require some sort of time travel to go back and change the timeline, in theses instances if the doomed timeline didn’t happen then the Alpha timeline wouldn’t be able to happen either.

How is Vriska able to use aradia's time traveling boxes? I thought Gamzee could use them because he had the jokerkind abstratus. (I forget what Vriska has)

Time travelling devices are not weapons and therefore do not require a specibus to use them.  And Vriska has dicekind.

oh, is needlekind weapon needed for scratch?

Yes, the scratch construct has to be scratched (hehe) with the Quills of Echidna in order for it to activate.

What does/do you think happens to all the kids of failed SBURB sessions?

Yes

About Jake and Dirk dating, do we ever see one asking the other out? Or is the whole relationship set during the 5 months the alpha kids are playing that we don't get to see?

It’s all set in the 5 months, we don’t see anything but the end of it.
