slick and snowman seem to be as healthy as it gets in current canon

however vriska and eridan seemed healthy enough!! and mindfang/dualscar seemed fine too.

on the other hand, gamrezi and vristav are abuse. equius and aradia seem to be dubious as well, seeing as aradia’s lack of consent over everything equius did with her body.

terezi and vriska also use sister :’)

the probably canon explanation would be ‘fuck logic’

but this is actually one of the times where i can offer headcanons!! we see in act 5 that terezi picks up human slang from dave, and then karkat and vriska start picking it up from terezi. we also know terezi knows a lot about humans from her lusus. logically, it wouldn’t be impossible that her lusus taught her of relationships akin to brother and sister and she was the one who started using such words first, and gamzee and karkat and everyone else using bro picked up on that and ta-da!! trolls using bro and sis without fully understanding what it means

but like i said, canon doesn’t work like that and it’s never explained.

sburb is referred to as being sentient because it ensures certain conditions are met and accounts for everything that may/may not happen to ensure that entry into the game is as smooth as possible. i wouldn’t say it’s 100% sentient, but it seems to be far more than just a computer programme. 

its uhh, ‘shucks, buster’ two separate words!

shucks is just a kind of exclamation? it depends on context but is usually has connotations of being embarrassed or obvious or upset or… actually it has a lot of different uses.. but its just a thing you shout or say to express emotion or participation in a conversation

where as buster is just a playful way of referring to someone

i believe the whole context you’re looking for is

GG: If years ago someone told me, which incidentally someone DID, that today I would have an exclusive opportunity to play what is absolutely the most cutting edge immersive simulation game ever released, developed by a company which has already done so much for the advancement of humanity, I would have said, “Shucks, buster, sign me up!"

equius’ thing……. equius’ creepy thing………………… creepy creepy thing…………..

yeah that’s true with the captors but the situation with them is different

why there’s no reason for tinkerbull or pounce de leon to change ‘personalities’, it was sort of necessary for the captors as its reflecting the abilities and capabilities of mituna and sollux. it could also be another callback to the differences in 'culling’–so on beforus a lusus may act to protect and nurture a troll if they fall under the category of needing culling, where as on alternia the troll needs to learn how to survive so the lusus won’t protect them or they’d be setting them up for 'culling’ when the time came for it.

however, for all intents and purposes we can see a pattern emerging that the lusus the beta trolls had are the same as the ones the alpha trolls will have. just alternate versions.

yep, that’s correct from what we can see! :)

my girlfriend’s brother could write you an extensive essay on the merits of shipping wv/jade and i have to say that parts of his arguments for the ship have convinced me at points

nope! no voices are canon

if you honestly think terezi or tavros could be the villain when they are clearly being abused, then you should probably examine your morals because i’m not even going to sugar coat how fucked up that is
