Ok some people asked for it so here is the Fes Kohane analysis. (Sort of a Kohane in general analysis)

Under a read more for being long and also for anyone who doesn't want to see the card yet.

Let's start with the untrained.

There are a few Hammies here. We have our current Kohane front and centre, she looks confident, she's moving ahead. From the background, this Fragment Sekai seems to have a lot of glass buildings. At least I'm assuming that is a wall behind her.

To the right we can see Kohane from the very start of the game. Long hair and glasses, Miya Girls uniform instead of her later jackets and hats. She looks at the current Kohane with what I think is amazement, which is expected. The old Kohane would have probably died on the spot if she learnt what she would be like in a year. This also very clearly shows Kohane's overall journey from a shy girl without a passion to follow to the Kohane we know now, who has a shared passion and is working towards it.

To the right of that Kohane we see one walking in the opposite direction to the present Kohane. This Kohane is wearing the outfit from her untrained for the Power Of Unity event, which ended Vivid Bad Squad's first arc in the events. (It's also her outfit from Period Of Nocturne but that's not the important part here.)

This Kohane walking the opposite direction being further right than long hair Kohane could represent how, at the end of their first arc, Vivid Bad Squad were still focused on surpassing Rad Weekend. It's an event that happened before Kohane found Vivid Street, so she has to go further back to reach it.

The last Kohane is to the current one's left. She is with the rest of Vivid Bad Squad and is wearing her outfit from the Kick It Up A Notch untrained, since An is also wearing her outfit from her untrained card for the same event we can assume this Kohane is from the day of the Crawl Green event.

I can't tell if this is before or after her song, but I would assume it was after. The rest of Vivid Bad Squad being there is interesting, as the only other time the rest of a unit have appeared in a Fragment Sekai (that I know of) is Rui's. I think this Kohane represents her current ability: her performance at Crawl Green was stunning and the best example of her current skill level, however Kohane's inner thoughts during Vivid Bad Squad's group song show that she prefers to be with all of them. The fact this feeling is strong enough to appear in the Fragment Sekai proves this. (She cares for her friends so much I can't I fucking can't.)

The colouring of the glass is also interesting. Long hair Kohane shares the same color the rest of the glass does, but the three triangles where Crawl Green Kohane is are a greenish, pink and blue color each. These colours represent members of Vivid Bad Squad, the pink is Kohane, blue is Toya and green is An. Power Of Unity Kohane has a yellowish orange background to represent Akito. The fact he is separated from the other three like this is interesting to me. It could be because of what this Kohane represents (Akito's second focus) or it could be where each member is focusing on at the current moment. While An, Kohane and Toya look to the future and are somewhat satisfied with where they are currently, Akito is stuck in the past focusing on Rad Weekend and how he needs to improve. In which case Akito's back facing the glass is another point that could link to it.

Anyway that's all I have for the untrained. Let's look at her trained card.

I really like this hairstyle! It's definitely her best alternative one. Anyway, I was incredibly happy when I saw they incorporated her love for photography into the trained. Obviously she is holding the camera to her face, but the video reels as well. I don't know if the pictures in said reels are meant to represent anything, but one in particular did stand out and it makes me think that they possibly do.

This one here makes me think of the Sky Runners set, which could play into what I think these reels represent: Kohane's memories of the last in game year.

Alongside the fact that she is my favourite character, I was really looking forward to Kohane's fes card because, unlike the rest of the cast, Kohane doesn't have a backstory. Everyone else's fes cards tend to use their past to show a strong feeling, but a big part of Kohane's character is that she didn't really feel strongly for anything before the main story. The only thing she really had was photography, but she didn't properly show interest to pursue it until Vivid Bad Squad. A camera is used to capture moments, so it would make sense that, with her ties to it, Kohane would represent those memories through a reel. It also shows how much she cares for the world she has entered since the main story, Vivid Street, the Street Sekai and Vivid Bad Squad all mean so much to her.

I really like Kohane's fes card. She is a character who means a lot to me and I really like all of the touches to her growth overtime, both in character and in her relationship to Rad Weekend and the people surrounding it. Thank you to whoever has read all of this, I will probably add something on once I get to reading the fes card's story. I might do an analysis on Akito's fes card as well (will probably be shorter than Kohane's lmao) because this fes is something I've been anticipating for a while. Anyways, stan the Kohammie.

Heathers (1988) is a masterclass in costuming and color usage

Red is both Heather Chandler's (HC) color and one of the school colors, if someone is wearing it they're either popular or powerful at that moment, often both.

Green is Heather Duke's (HD) color, background characters wearing it are often mousy or nerds with zero power, it's the color of the trodden on.

Yellow is Heather McNamara's (HM) color, the color of kindness but also a desire to fit in. She's not perfect, but she's better than the others.

Blue is Veronica's color symbolizing friendship and loyalty.

Black is JD's symbolizing dark intent and guilt.

Neutrals belong to all but often show a meaninglessness or loss of identity.

When Veronica and JD meet she's wearing more black than blue, only her tights show her identity and she finds him threatening jocks fun. At the minimart before the party she'd again wearing a fair amount of black but also a grey sweater with a blue undertone, she's identity-less because the party is Heather's idea. And the party is lit in red to symbolize the popularity potential to be found at it.

Again in neutral grey blues with black when she and JD kill Heather. The darkness creeps up on her in the form of her tights.

When news is spreading through the school about HC's death HM is wearing a blue top over the yellow bottoms, she's the one loyal to HC in the moment while Veronica is in black because she feels guilty. HD is in a green corset, which I'll come back to.

The navy of Veronica's tights is more clear as she sits with JD at his house but the main thing here is they are visibly a matched set, which is again the case at the funeral as Veronica wears a boxy jacket that sits similarly to JD's duster.

On the double date HM is in greys, she's not excited about how it's going, she's very much an afterthought here to her date and it's shown. Veronica wears a bright blue shirt because she agreed to come out of friendship and loyalty to Heather.

At school the next day Veronica wears a full blue outfit, she's free of HC's influence and is herself except for the black hat symbolizing JD's influence in her head.

As Veronica and JD plot the deaths of Kurt and Ram JD is free of his jacket for the first time, he's fairly vulnerable with her here and has adopted her blues over the greys of his pants and undershirt. Veronica is still in her blue school outfit but the shadows show the darkness of JD's influence. This is again shown in the clearing as she wears her blues in her skirt but has a black shirt showing JD's influence in her heart.

After the death of Kurt and Ram Veronica wears purple, she's gained power over the school and of people in general as she shapes things with death bringing her blue more red. JD wears a red shirt with his blacks, he's aware of the power he's gained both over the school and over Veronica.

HD's shirt under her greens is pinkish when JD gives her HC's old bow, showing her power emerging since HC isn't there to push her down anymore.

With Betty Veronica is in blue again under the same neutrals Betty wears as a nobody. She's reconnecting with her past friendships and pushing aside her popularity.

HD and HM show up, HM in all yellow, but HD is in red clothing for the first time. And in this she's wearing a corset very similar to the one immediately post HC's death. She's taken her own power from that day and changed it to the kind HC wielded over the school.

As HD and JD begin to work together she adopts black to her image, the red is nestled inside of it similar to his look post the deaths of Kurt and Ram.

As JD preps the bombs to take to school we see him at his most vulnerable, he believes Veronica dead and has stripped just to a black T-shirt. The blue background envelopes him as he works.

Veronica's outfit when she goes to confront and stop JD at school includes the same grey cardigan she wore to kill Kurt and Ram but this time her shirt is blue. She knows who she is and what she wants again and JD's influence is reduced.

After the showdown with JD Veronica is left with blood on her face that leads the eye to HC's now further stolen hair bow. Veronica has taken that piece of power from HD and is using it to extend her friendship to Martha whom they'd bullied in the beginning showing she's ditched the Heathers for good.

defending them in their absence <3

soft gestures between friends turning lovers || prompts for @kellyscowboy too!! <33

Once he catches up with the rest of the newsies at the lodgings, he walks in on a heated debate. He stays behind, trying to figure out just what's got everyone's panties in a twist, when he finally hears Race clearer.

"And his brother's only what? Ten?"

"It's not their fault they both gotta work," Crutchie says, to the sounds of some of the other boys arguing back. "Look, all I'm saying is they're here for a reason. It ain't like we don't gotta work for nothing either."

"You saw what they did to that kid at The World, didn't you? What's to say he won't bring Les with him every time something new happens. And who's going to end up looking after the kid then?" Race asks, sounding genuinely frustrated.

"Hey!" he calls out, making his presence known in the room. Everyone quietens down, and he feels every single pair of eyes on him. "You talking about Davey and Les?"

"Davey, actually," Race tells him, although he doesn't sound as confident as before. "Look, the kids got brains. But do we really think he's gonna be any help if we do this strike?"

"He's the reason why we're going ahead with it," Jack points out. "Whether we like it or not, he's very much a part of this strike. You think any of us would have had the idea to strike? To start a union? One that might actually get us somewhere."

"You seriously think this will work, don' you?" Finch asks, and Jack thinks he can pick up the fear in the younger boy's voice.

"I know we will. I trust Davey, I trust that he knows what he's doing, and I have trust in us, and what we can do when we work together." This, Jack is confident of. He knows the odds are against them, but for all that he and his brothers have been through, he wouldn't doubt them for a second. He sits down in the middle of Crutchie and Jo Jo, and leans his head back against the wall behind him.

"So what is it about Davey that makes you so sure?" Crutchie asks, and Jack turns his head to watch his friend. "I mean, you began selling with him as soon as you met him. Clearly you saw something in him then too."

This makes Jack squirm in his seat, feeling uncomfortable under the watchful eyes of his friends. He remembers staring at those doe-eyed hazel eyes, which hardened once Jack had stared back. He was intrigued, he'd never seen a newbie stand up to Wiesel. Impressed, even, until Davey started talking back to him. Jack Kelly was not one to back down from a fight.

"I wasn't lying, selling with Les has been a breeze," he says, settling on an answer. "Plus the kid's got bite, it seems like there's a lot more to him than what we're seeing."

"You should know, you're the one bringing him to Medda's," Crutchie says, and Jack brushes the remark off, however he thinks of the Davey who watched his scenery with a sincere smile, telling him how good he thought it was, and how warm the words had made Jack feel.

He thinks of the Davey who let the excitement sweep him up and get as equally riled up and excited about the strike, who bravely walked into The World and still wouldn't back down. The Davey who bounced ideas off of Jack like his thoughts actually mattered in a moment that mattered so much.

He looks to see Crutchie smiling down at him, whose eyes drift towards the younger kids excitedly talking about their jobs tomorrow, and what they were going to say. Jack wishes he could capture this moment, show Davey just what's done to the kids who were relying on his every word for some sort of hope that things could finally go in their favour for once.

"If you're sure you trust him," Race says, reluctantly. Jack looks up at him, an uneasy look on his face as he plays with the deck of cards in his hands, shuffling the cards with his eyes drawn to Jack.

"I do," Jack says, firmly. "And for what it's worth, I think we all should too."

Hi! I am so very in love with your Appalachian!Eddie 'verse. Everything you've shared about it is absolutely perfect. <3

You've said you're usually open to getting asks about headcanons, so I hope this is okay. I started wondering about what birthdays were like for Eddie, since today's mine. I'm stuck pondering how they were for him growing up, and how they may have changed when he moved in with Wayne. I also started wondering how'd they'd be when he and Steve get together--especially considering Steve doesn't seem to have a typical home life, so he may not even have the experiences we'd expect him to around that kind of thing.

If you have thoughts on any of this, I'd love to hear them, but please don't feel pressured to respond. No worries if you're not feeling it! :)

hi!! i'm so sorry i couldn't answer on your actual birthday, but i'm less busy now and have so many thoughts about this!!

Eddie's birthdays growing up are small. His parents aren't super well off, and they don't talk to the rest of their families, so small birthdays it is. I can see them going out for ice cream or getting fast food for dinner, small stuff like that. They usually got him one or two things, too, stuff like comics issues, books, art supplies (you can't tell me Eddie wasn't a creative kid), and new tapes.

The most important thing, though, is that both of his parents were there. Neither one of them missed a single birthday before Eddie went to live with Wayne, and they were both sober enough to be functional. Holidays were hit and miss, but Eddie's birthday was a priority. They made an effort to be there, and he loves them for it.

When Eddie goes to live with Wayne, he's around thirteen years old. Wayne is better off than Eddie's parents are, so he takes Eddie to Benny's for his birthday and gets him new clothes and his acoustic guitar. It's... a lot for Eddie, who grew up watching his mama count change on the kitchen counter of whatever house (or motel room) they were living in at the time, even when his pa tried to distract him from doing so. He knows he and Wayne aren't well off, not really, but it's still an adjustment.

Steve is big on birthdays. I've written his parents a variety of ways, but for this particular scenario I'm going to settle on the idea that they loved celebrating his birthday when he was younger but didn't like it as much as he got older. I feel like his parents wanted a kid, not a person, and once Steve stopped being a kid, it stopped being fun for them and time for him to finish growing up and become a man. So, Steve is big on birthdays because he remembers loving them as a kid, hating them as a teenager, and then learning to love them again with the Party. Once Eddie becomes a solid part of their group, Steve wants him to have that, too.

They fight about it at first. Steve is a bit pushy. He can be a lot, and Eddie is still uncomfortable with the idea of doing a lot for his birthday. They fight about it, briefly, until they come to the conclusion that they can make Eddie's birthday little and Steve's birthday big, just as it suits them.

Eddie usually wants to go out for ice cream for his birthday, and that's it. Steve's is for the adventures they take, like driving up to Lake Michigan for a weekend or going into Chicago to see a concert.

They wouldn't have it any other way.

Finally, after 3 months of writing and 1 month of typing/editing, I'm finally ready to begin posting my new Dennis centered Macden fic. This is me (utterly deflated):

It came out to 30 Chapters. 307 pages long. 125+K words.

It was originally supposed to be a drabble based off a song and a bored, stoned night while away from home, when I realized how much I missed writing them (Literally less than one week after I finished posting my last one.)

I just wanted to play with insecurities, fears, trauma, loss (I promise it's not really as dark as it sounds). If anything, I wrote this one with a disassociated mind wanting to express something softer. While Scars was about breaking, I wanted Frightened Whispers to be about healing.

I'm still reeling. Writer's Hangover is no joke.

If you're interested, 1st Chapter should be up tomorrow.

do you think that the reason you're so good at anatomy is bc of your coursework in medicine :0

Contrary to popular belief, not really. I actually learned a lot of art-related anatomy before starting medical school. If anything, knowing how to draw the human figure and having a basic understanding of what and where things are helped me learn some anatomy in school but it's really not that related because what you need to know for medical anatomy is less form and more function, if that makes any sense. But, being able to visualize stuff did help with remembering stuff for school.

Understanding human anatomy IS helpful for art, but not necessarily to the medical extent. If you're just studying anatomy to draw it, then I would actually focus more on the overall form and silhouette of the human figure. Know how structures move and overlap in relation to each other. Know what the limitations of limbs are, e.g. how far can the arm rotate, what happens when you reach up above your head vs reaching out in front of you. How other structures move and tilt in relation to these movements. Remember that everything in the body is connected by tissue and muscle. Nothing moves in strict isolation. That's what gives drawing the human form flow. This understanding can only come from real-life observation and practice.

Of course, this is all based on the assumption that you already have a grasp of art basics in 3D form and structure. It's very difficult to draw an arm with the right perspective if you can't visualize how a plain old cylinder would look in the same configuration. People like to jump right into the fun stuff and I totally get it, but you really really need to get your brain to think in 3D space if you want to make anything look realistic.

Frankly, my actual drawing anatomy isn't even that good. If you look at things in detail, there are tons and tons of errors because I can't figure out how things actually go sometimes. But what I AM good at is making things gestural and IMPLYING the correct silhouette so that I can trick people into thinking it's right without it actually being completely right lmao. I am able to do this bc I have a decent (key word: DECENT) grasp of 3D space and basic human form and its limitations.

I don't know the temperature of this take since I haven't read anything about the episode but,

The last episode (or more ? I don't exactly remember) of season 2 foreshadowded Roy and Keeley breaking up and since the writers decided to go through with it, I'm glad it happened in the first episode.

This season is only 12 episodes and it's the last. It's more time to see them coming back together ! Which is (for me) the most important part.

Last thought that I'm less sure about:

I also think that not showing what happened between them maybe reinforce the fact that there was not really a reason for them to break up in the first place but they did it because they thought it was the best decision

here's another one of my Fallen London ocs

The Forlorn Epistemophile

He's the character for my seeking alt which I created recently although he is an older oc.

(Keep reading if you wanna know more about his past and also The Wistful Storyteller's past i guess, their pasts are sort of intertwined together in some way, and their relationship is very complicated)

He and the Wistful Storyteller knew eachoter on the Surface, they were actually gonna get married but powered by his hunger for knowlege and pretty bad mental health, along with the death of his father he decided that he couldn't do this, and basically kinda faked his own death(well the storyteller did figure out ultimately that he's not death tho) while ensuring that the Storyteller would be safe and and protected by a mutual friend of theirs. So he spent the last couple of years searching for knowlege nd now he's come down to the Neath. Currently he is 25 years old(with the storyteller being 23).

The Epistemophile is aware of the Storyteller being here, but is avoiding them because he knows he kinda fucked up(also is not happy about him being here as he considers this place too dangerous for them), meanwhile the Storyteller was devastated by all of this, and would gadly talk to him again and should really be more upset then she actually is. Hell if he agreed to it she'd be fine with them continuing their relationship or just starting over.

Also they have a kid together( he doesn't know that tho, like knows a lot of secrets and informations most people don't know, but never found out his fiancé was pregnant when he left, ironic.) She's an adorable almost 4 year old with curly hair with the colour of her mother's and hazel eyes, and tan skin. Don't worry, she's safe on the Surface though being taken care of by responsible people.

They are both messes of human beings but eventually they do reconnect someday and the storyteller is not happy about him seeking the name at all bcs he needs to be there, if not for himself or for his ex fiancé then at least for his daughter. One of the first things they do when they meet again is offering him the option of them both trying to find a way to return to the Surface permanently and try having a relationship again, which he refuses.

Andddddd that's alll i got about them.

I hope you don’t mind me blabbing in your asks box but you’re interpretation of Kakyoin tells me you’re a smart person and I need to get this off my chest to someone who’s smart (feel free to ignore😭)

Whenever the topic of Kakyoin being anything but cis het arises Jotaro is always brought along with it to validate him, and yeah I get that it’s a popular ship or whatever but I feel like Kakyoin deserves to be treated as his own character with his own deepness if that makes sense.

To me I feel like it was pretty obvious how queer coded Kakyoin is yet it seems like people only talk about him being gay when they need an excuse for Jotaro to be gay as well. And aside from all that I just generally wish people would dive into Jotaro’s and Kakyoin’s relationship beyond it being just romantic, like perhaps in au where Kakyoin survives instead of the fandom treating him like a trophy wife to Jotaro they’d explore the aftermath of what happened in their past and how it would affect their friendship/ relationship after...

It’s just upsetting to see how Kakyoin’s character is so widely misinterpreted by everyone (people who think he’s gay and the others who r against that), both sides always boil him down to a plain character with no nuance or dimension to him whatsoever.

Again sorry for bothering you with my rant!💜

DO NOT EVER APOLOGIZE FOR TALKING KAKYOIN WITH ME ANON OMG i love love love love love this crazy ass kid so much i love to hear it i love to see it i love love LOVE to talk about it please never ever apologize please feel free to come into my ask box at any time literally any day and say anything just absolutely anything about kakyoin i love him so much i love him desperately i love to discuss him i love him don't ever apologize cause you have in fact made my night sending me this so thank you thank thank you

AS for the actual content of your message: I COULDN'T AGREE MORE DUDE it's actually INFURIATING how people refuse to treat this kid as his own character like it actually drives me made and insane and is part of the reason I've started writing my own part 4 kakyoin fic

but no i asolutely agree. i get his relationship with jotaro may ADD to why he's queercoded but it is ABSOLUTELY NOT the main pillar of it. kakyoin literally grew up isolated because he knew he was different from his peers on a fundamental level and he decided he wouldn't trust them because of it. that is LITERALLY the most lgbt coded backstory you could give anyone. stands as a whole are very very very lgbt coded tbh. but anyway kakyoin also refers to himself in Japanese with varying pronouns, some of which are usually reserved for feminine persons rather than masculine, which screams his transness or otherwise gnc. he LITERALLY SAYS. like ok. in the infamous holly line he LITERALLY SAYS "THE PERSON I'D LIKE TO MARRY." NOT THE WOMAN. THE PERSON. THIS WAS SUCH A SMALL DISTINCTION BUT IT WAS AN IMPORTANT ONE FOR LGBT PPL ESPECIALLY IN THE 80S FOR TALKING ABOUT THEIR ATTRACTION/FUTURE PARTNERS WITHOUT EXPLICITLY OUTING THEMSELVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FUCK!!!!!!!!!

literally ALL OF THIS ^^^ AND PEOPLE STILL ONLY BRING UP LGBT KAKYOIN JUST TO TALK ABOUT GAY JOTARO IT'S LIKE SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP THEY ARE LGBT WITHOUT HAVING TO BE IN A RELATIONSHIP THERE IS MORE TO BEING LGBT AND THIS CULTURE THAN BEING IN A RELATIONSHIP!!!!!!!!! ARUGH

but yeah god i agree so much it drives me insane. kakyoin is his own character with his own reasons for being clearly queercoded but ppl don't talk about it unless it's in a shipping context and it DRIVES ME INSANE!!! but anyway i agree so much anon thank you for sending this in i love kakyoin so much

When Senshi was young in the dungeon the majority of the adults he were with ostracized him. All except Gillin, who died to make sure Senshi had something to eat: unseasoned boiled meat that may or may not have been one of their comrades.

It really puts into perspective why he was so nurturing towards Chilchuck. When Chil reveals he’s 28 to the party, Senshi responds by telling him that he thought he was older. Senshi was in his 30s when he and his comrades got trapped in the dungeon, so it’s safe to assume that he thought Chil was at a similar age.

He met a young boy who was, from his perspective, forced to do dangerous work in the dungeon just like he was, and so, Senshi made an effort to look after Chilchuck in the same way Gillin looked after him.

Mind you, when Senshi was young in the dungeon he had to starve for weeks, eat the horse he loved, and finish it off spending the next i don’t know how many years wondering if he committed cannibalism.

Senshi understands first hand the value of nutrition and proper eating, so when he’s with the party he makes an effort to make sure they’re all eating a full and balanced diet. Not only that, but Senshi INVOLVES them in the process of getting food to eat, always preparing it in front of them and narrating every ingredient in the process so that there’s no doubt about what they’re eating.

Hug

It's nearly impossible to have a quiet and peaceful day with the crew, like the strawhats. Nami is mostly used to the noise on Going Merry but one day she gets fed up with Zoro and Sanji arguing. Not only are they extremely loud, but they've also already broken way too many things during their fights.

She decides that If they want to act like brats, then she's going to treat them as such. So she makes them apologize and hug each other in silence for an hour. None of them are happy about this punishment, but Nami threatened to raise Zoro's debt, and Sanji couldn't say no to her. It could be worse.

It's awkward enough for them to not incite any fight for a long time and Nami is quite proud of herself. She knows it won't last forever but at least now she knows how to handle them. It inevitably happens again. And again. And again.

Much to her surprise, those fights became more and more frequent. And what's even weirder is that she could see the way both Zoro and Sanji occasionally glanced at her to make sure she was nearby. It's almost as if they wanted someone to make them hug each other. As if they needed an excuse.... these idiots.

Soon, they don't even need Nami's help. When they aren't busy training, cooking or fighting, they cuddle together. Sometimes Luffy or Chopper would join them, but most of the crew knew it was their time.

After two years spent separately, they became extremely clingy. It's no surprise when they start sleeping in the same bed. What is surprising is that despite them behaving like a lovey-dovey couple, those oblivious idiots are STILL unaware of each other's feelings.

#It's almost 3 am and I'm a little tired #I really hope that what I wrote here is somewhat coherent #It's another idea that's been stuck in my head #I wanted to make a comic about this but I never have the time #so for now all I can give you are these notes and a quick sketch #and as always if there's already a fic like that please let me know I would love to check it out #sanji x zoro #sanji #roronoa zoro #zosan #one piece

this sequence of pages in act 5 is so striking to me.

in acts 1-4, jade is a mysterious, all-knowing figure who knows about sburb and how it needs to go, and shes very systematic about logging and remembering important things through the little bands on her fingers. even though shes just some goofy little girl, shes smart!! she knows whats going on and knows what she has to do, and shes been studying the clouds to make sure that she and her friends are ready. because honestly, what else is she going to do with her time? she's alone on the island, and this is her destiny. she's going to make sure it happens.

here, we're finally seeing a bit of her friendly and put together self image start to fall apart as she just gives up on keeping track of things. she's grieving the loss of prospit, shes just had her first ever nightmare, AND she had to deal with an obnoxious teenage boy (karkat), and she's reached her breaking point. and she just. gives up. forget the reminders, forget the systems, they aren't serving her right now, so off they go.

plus, we get this tidbit a few pages later:

jade always knew she was going to die. she had seen herself, stuffed and perfectly preserved as a thirteen-year-old. she must have known that it was coming soon, but that didn't stop her from going through the plan to play the game with her friends. personally i think she thought it was worth it if she could at least see her friends, hopefully keep them safe, and have some fun times with them right before she had to die.

i wonder if theres a part of her unsettled by the fact that she's finally faced something she didn't already know was going to happen. she no longer has the comforting clouds of skaia to tell her what's going to happen - she's as clueless as everyone else. probably MORE clueless than some characters, like the trolls, who have a window into her future that she can't see.

jade's realized that she doesn't know all of the beats of this story anymore. she might just grow up now, and that means she has to go forth into the unknown.
