yea i gotta say while i’ve been delighted to see Grandpa and Mom rightfully get the more critical views they’ve deserved, it’s kinda weird that thats carried over to Jake?
Like people conflate alternate identities for these characters way too much. Dirk and Jake are better people as a -direct result- of their relationships with each other and the girls, and Bro and Pa are conversely worse -directly because- of their isolation.
Homestuck’s themes have always been about flawed people growing and improving through their bonds with each other, not with any one person being Intrinsically Bad or Good. Get some nuance???
