Well Jack has been naked from the chest down since just before he put on the ring, and there doesn't seem to be much there, so I doubt it.
There is no word of sufficient nuance and complexity to describe your relationship with it. I hereby commission SleepingOrange to devise one.

It also has it's own memes, because memes are the pinnacle of humor.
You're rude and ignorant, Ben.

But then, while she was taking her dragon for a stroll/small town eating she realized "I H4V3 4 FUCK1NG DR4GON".

Tavros is pretty cool, in a loser-ish sort of way.

Snowman is a pretty cool character as well, I guess.
For some reason I find myself listening to Umbral Ultimatum more than most of the other songs, with Let's All Rock the Heist being a close second.
Does this help?
Yes absolutely.
Thank you.
This will become relevant in the future. Far enough into the future where you will probably forgot I even asked this.

So, I'll make a bit of an analogy.
Let's say the kids are files in a folder, the folder being the universe.
When you Scratch the universe, It can be seen as, like, reverting the folder to a previous version. So anything that was on there before and any changes are lost.
There are 2 days to avoid this.
1) Kill yourself (ie: Throw in the recycle bin). By doing this, you still exist in the afterlife, and when the folder is re-written, the files still exist in the recycle bin.
2) Escape. Transfer the files to another folder (ie: universe) simply, and when the folder is re-written, the transferred files will be safe.

Though one has to wonder why a species that's created in an ectobiology lab needs genitalia at all ("But Starscream, we have trolls with unnecessary boobs!" Yeah yeah)

Re: The MSPA Simple Questions and Simple Ansrews (*Answers) thread
I heard that Horuss and Kurloz use slightly different colours to Equius and Gamzee in Openbound, because I find screen capping and analysis the colour through a program like paint or something to give back results when trying that with text, does anyone know a way to check the code to see what their colour was actually programmed as?

Re: The MSPA Simple Questions and Simple Ansrews (*Answers) thread
Oh, this reminds me of something I was wondering about, are the text colours of Equius and Horuss different from their usual one in the Ministrife as well? It seems to me like their colours were pretty close to that of John's there.
Damn, this secret project I'm doing is taking long. I'm planning to post it by my 10.000th post, which according to my calculations should be somewhere end of July, beginning of August 2013 (I have 5150 posts at this point, but I have already been going for 3 months or so)
Theories
Liv Tyler's whole journey will be shown in a flash called [S] Terry: Fast forward to Liv while a fast version of "How Do I" plays. Semi-confirmed.
While Caliborn is talking to this person at the other side of the terminal, this person at one point says: “Hey. Caliborn. Don’t turn your back on the body.”
Caliborn turns around and notices Gamzee’s body is gone.
honk
And so it begins again. Semi-confirmed.
GCat just teleported Roxy to the Condesce.Confirmed
Calliope and uu are living on B2 Earth, or maybe a doomed timeline version of it where the Red Miles didn't reach it (yet).
uu will write the LE code to make himself immortal.
A Frog Temple for Calliope and uu is somewhere in the Trolls' meteor somehow.
Gamzee went into hiding so he could protect the corpses of the Trolls of being destroyed so he could prototype them in B2.
GCat is Calliope's jUjU, in case the Cherubs are living on B2 Earth, late into the future. It would make a bit of sense, since First Guardians have Lime coloured features (teleportation powers, tongue, etc.) which Calliope has as blood colour. Also, Calliope is a Hero of Space and Heroes of Space usually have connections to their First Guardian.
B2 Earth is not going to get destroyed by the Red Miles since the Condesce, GCat, Lil Cal and Lil Seb are still there.
Dad will find Jane's body on Derse and a callback is made to Grandpa Harley finding Dream Jane's body. Not knowing how to escape, Dad panics. But then, B2 Jade comes flying along on a ship and offers him a ride and he gets shipped somewhere. Perhaps shipped with someone else. Perhaps he gets shipped with B2 Rose.

In Ministrife, I'm getting #0022cf from Equius and Aradiabot and #0021cb from Horuss. Equius uses #000056 for all regular logs, and I'm getting #0021cb from the indigo potions and from the voided text in Rose's journal.
EDIT: Actually, Horuss's second (of two) lines seems to be #0022cf... weird.

I put it up right now because I won't be able to do that until in more than 12 hours from now, and the new update might already be up by then which could cause a huge flow of questions about it, that would take this topic to beyond page 100.
