Yes! It's back!
>Emerald: Honk.
...You wish you were about to honk. Being a subjuggulator would make life so much easier right now.
You watch as your mother somewhat surprisingly picks up speed.
>Vriska: Reunite with your loving daughter.
In a moment that surprises even you, your mother runs towards you while crying. Actually crying. You swear to...uh...God, those are Vriska tears. Either that or bleeding from her face. That wouldn't be an improvement.
-> Vriska: Give daughter a STRONG hug that would make Equius proud.
Vriska suddenly wraps you in her arms, holding you with a rather extreme tightness. There seems to be a genuine motherly affection going on here. It would be startling and unexpected to an outsider watching the situation.
You gulp and look at the ground behind your mother. You try not to show much emotion. You're mother continues to hold you tightly. Your father smiles his big, goofy smile.
It hurts. Just a little.
You close your eyes tightly.
>Emerald: Attack Vriska with the Godslayer
You...You don't. N-no...This can't be right. You don't think you can do it. It's just too much. If Vriska hadn't reacted this way, maybe. If John wasn't smiling, maybe. If they had just been angry with you...
You shut your eyes for a moment. You sigh happily, leaning into your mother's embrace.
...
Vriska suddenly gasps in pain and shock as a rapier blade is ejected from your INVENTORY directly into her midsection. She looks at you in shock and horror.
You look back apologetically.
EH: I'm sorry.
EH: This is the only w4y.
You hold the handle and push her off the sword with surprising ease. She stumbles back for a moment, her eyes widened. She tries to take out her dice, but she can't seem to hold onto it, and she drops it without attacking. She starts to slump, and falls to the ground.
You choke back any tears you might have and turn your gaze to your father. There is a look of complete and utter heartbreak and terror. And then...
He gets a determined look, his sadness turning into anger. He deploys his WARHAMMER OF ZILLYHOO.
Your GODSLAYER blade is covered in blue blood. It begins to glow with an inner LIGHT, signifying that it has taken your mother's powers.
-> Emerald: Dramatically snap fingers, heralding the beginning of whatever is about to go down.
You go into a fencing stance, bending your knees and elbow, and snap the fingers on your free hand - your traditional habit for preparing yourself for battle.
You imagine asking politely and trying to explain why your father should let you stab him and take a copious amount of blood wouldn't work. You'll have to do it the hard way.

>Emerald: Ask your father if you can pretty pretty please with sugar on top show him your stabs.
>John: Do the Windy Thing, Do the Windy Thing like you've never Done the Windy Thing EVER before. Engulfing a Planet in a Hurricane? You did that BEFORE you were a god. Drilling through a planet? Harder, but that was BEFORE you practiced. DO THE WINDY THING BOY! YOU CANNOT DIE TO TASTY DAUGHTER!
Edit: and only in retrospect do I realize how creepy using WV's Green = Tasty line there was... Oh well, I stand by it.

Yes! It's back!
This is presently the best instance of misspeaking (sort of) in the thread.
Also, if anyone's worried that they missed finding out what Emerald's chat handle was...You did not. It hasn't been mentioned beyond the initials.
EDIT:
oh nooooh noooooo! Vriska! D=
(couldn't resist, sorry. ^^")

-> John: Pound the WARHAMMER OF ZILLYHOO into the ground and let out a fierce roar before battle. You don't care about her weapon or the fact she's your daughter right now: She needs to go DOWN.
-> Emerald: Assuming that the GODSLAYER has taken Vriska's power as the GODDESS OF LIGHT, show off something indicating that to throw your father...to throw JOHN off track.
-> Emerald: Try to keep him off balance by needling him with heartbreaking taunts and verbal assaults. Even if it's hard...you could use the advantage.
For reference btw (and this is headcanon). I see John's control of the Breeze as being something that, as he gets better, allows him to use the full force (Planetary Drill / Planetwide Hurricane) over smaller areas without the collateral damage. (Ever been in a wind so strong you could barely stand / breathe? Yea, take that wind, apply it to 1 person and turn the windspeed up by a factor of 100.)
Emerald: Realize that using Vriska's luck probably won't get you out of this one. You don't need to be all that unlucky to get disciplined by your angry Wind God father. It's kind of a grey area.
(assuming the Godslayer works that way...)
Emerald: Reflect on what the hell's going on for the sake of the voices in your head.
Edit: Ohh, are you accepting guesses as to what the chat handle is? (Note: NOT suggestions, I'm assuming you already have one in mind. GUESSES)

Sure. If the guess is better than canon it may suddenly become canon.Edit: Ohh, are you accepting guesses as to what the chat handle is? (Note: NOT suggestions, I'm assuming you already have one in mind. GUESSES)
Another random note: Emerald's "bladekind" that she's presently using? Actually more of a "rapierkind" or "saberkind" than "katanakind".
Man thanks to this update I'm far too excited to sleep but too drowsy to be productive.
You are far too good at this man.
Thanks! Believe it or not, this was actually one of the first scenes of the story I had planned. The whole GODSLAYER plot was something I had thought of early on, along with approaching some...different timeline-related ideas than Homestuck has (I promise the timeline stuff will not be nearly as important or confusing however. We're not dealing with Sburb or Lord English after all.).
(I am rapidly approaching the same "drowsy" problem unfortunately. 8D)
I am... Somewhat worried, but not crying. I am sure when this whole story ends I WILL cry, though. I will cry because it would all be over :'( And maybe because of what has happened so far, but, eh...
>John: Do the windy thing, then attack with the WARHAMMER OF ZILLYHOO! Mid-attack feel guilty for wanting to kill your daughter.
>Emerald: Use John's moment of hesitation and weakness to strike and possibly kill him... Try not to cry while/after doing it.
I'm guessing that EH is rather straightforward. EmeraldHope >.>
As for a command, well I still like the ones I submitted for now.

Er... wow. I'd better go update the wiki.
