Honestly I love Vriska Homestuck because she seems exactly like the kind of character I would've been obsessed with as a teen, but thank fuck I didn't read Homestuck until way later

Like I was out there internalizing lessons from Bass.EXE and Gaara, it would've been cool to have a #FemaleRoleModel (none of these people have any business being role models. except maybe older Gaara? idk I didn't keep up with the show), but yeah. Yeah no I would be a fundamentally different person if I'd been exposed to Vriska as a teen, I think

I was an edgy teen who was obsessed with The Cool Villain Who Blows Shit Up. I would occasionally participate in the Woobification, but no I was mostly there to see Violence and Chaos. Vriska is like. ??? "The Narrative" rewards her for this, I think. Meanwhile Bass is mostly there to be a Really Fucking Cool Obstacle, and Gaara is like. A funky mirror of Naruto, he's like some kind of storytelling metaphor that I don't know the name of.
