I believe the actual theory is that Karkat kissing Kanaya was a CONTRIBUTING factor to her becoming a rainbow drinker, not the sole reason.

so if he didn’t kiss her would she just be like….. kind of a rainbow drinker? 2/3 rainbow drinker?

there are a lot of issues with this theory and they all seem to come from the fandom’s tendency to waaaayyyy overanalyze shit

if the aspects associated with karkat’s failed revival attempt of kanaya and her subsequent undeadness were intended for that specific situation, then they were purely symbolic, but I honestly doubt even that

About the kankri kissing porrim thing. I think they were kinda asking "how the hell else did she get to he a rainbow drinker or is it not explained?".

she just………… became undead because she died. it was a natural process!

biologically speaking, the whole “kissed by blood player” thing doesn’t make sense for rainbow drinkers because there had been other rainbow drinkers on alternia that karkat hadn’t kissed probably, unless that dude has secrets he’s not telling us

For the Rainbow drinker porrim-kissing-kankri-question, Some people think kanaya is a rainbow drinker because a hero of blood player kissed her back to life, but its not canon

ohhhh, that would explain it

u kids and ur theories

im sorry if this is a stupid question but what is the connection between sollux and dave? i mean cuz sollux names him or something and i remember it being different from the other kids trolls combo thing. i dont remember how but i dunno.

ur talkin about this page

that’s just sollux being a dork, they don’t really have much of a connection in canon. sollux isn’t even dave’s (or anyone’s) patron troll, so

why did dirk cut his head off in the red box thingy? I'm confused (and could you link the page maybe?)

dirk sent his head to jake so that jake would kiss it and revive dirk’s dream self so that dirk could save roxy and jane from the miles and then rocketboard all the way back to jake’s place

also dramatic effect

the page is here

Everyone always talks about how impressive it is that Dirk raised himself, but didn't Terezi basically do the same thing? Her lusus only contacted her after she got blinded, before that she was on her own.

yeah true, but terezi also lived the beginning of her life in the brooding caves surrounded by other trolls, while dirk was a lone little bab from day 1

How many Dave's are in the repeated timeline somewhere near act 4?

not a number that we’ve ever been told, but it’s pretty damn big probably

like, at least 5. maybe six

How did the lusis's of the trolls get on Jake's island?

the condesce put them there! it was part of the colonization attempt

Okay, I wanna clear this up. If Porrim is a rainbow drinker, that means Kankri had to kiss her at some point during their session, right?
