You channel your powerful eyesight through your customized lenses and whisper to the faithful little oracle: Should you be worried about Terezi's threat?
ON A RELATED NOTE, I HOPE YOU’RE NOT TOO ATTACHED TO THAT EYE.
Ahahaha!
Being outmaneuvered must really sting when you play yourself up as a chessmaster. How are you going to correct this error, Scratch?
A bold choice.
Sometimes you’ve got to take a break from all this machiavellian nonsense, and just blow some shit up. By the slight crackling of First Guardian lightning, I’d say it’s too late to run, Serket.
I guess he can remotely detonate the things - or maybe, since this feels like a natural extension of his First Guardian powers, he can remotely detonate anything. Fun!
...oh, shit, her arm! I didn’t even notice it initially! I guess it’s lucky that Equius is only a stone’s throw away - and I’m sure his bedside manner will be just great.

i hope it comes back that olivia uses “we’ve known each other for 23 years” as an excuse for defending elliot to rafael
based on my quick maths they were only actually together for 12 years before he left and 1 year after he came back
and she’s known rafael for 10 years. so how much of a difference is there really

GC: WHY DONT YOU CONSULT W1TH YOUR L1TTL3 4DV4NT4G3
GC: 1T S33MS TO H4V3 4LL TH3 4NSW3RS
Just like Karkat said, this is a game of a million guides. There are an endless number of ways that Vriska could be gathering information, but this sounds like a physical object or creature, which narrows it down a little.
Perhaps she’s using a viewport, like the one Jack was using to scry on the kids. If she has access to one she can aim, then it might be able to see the future - and it probably isn’t subject to the same restrictions as Doc Scratch.
I should have guessed!
If I had, though, I’d have expected the 8-ball to be more her style.
You consult with your MAGIC CUE BALL, an extremely rare treasure you recently plundered from an ancient crypt, and one of many rumoured to be hidden across the globe. Each at one time belonged to the strange and powerful man fabled to live on the green moon, but have since managed to escape his vision.
This plot thread’s been a long time coming. I always thought Jade’s cueballs were given a little more focus than they would have been, if they were just a throwaway gag. Plus, pool balls have been an important symbol in Homestuck since the Intermission days.
This symbolism actually raises an interesting question. Are these cueballs connected to Scratch in his capacity as a First Guardian, or as a member of the Felt? The fact that they’re literally pool balls would strongly suggest the latter, but then, how did Jade get her hands on one?
Could Doc Scratch be operating on Earth, as well as Alternia? Earth has a different First Guardian, of course, but that doesn’t mean Scratch can’t influence events there - it just means that doing so isn’t his day job.
Earth doesn’t exist yet, but Scratch has the capacity to live for billions of years. It’s entirely plausible that he’s actually on Earth in 2009 - and given how closely our kids are entwined with the trolls, he has every reason to want to manipulate them.
It is said to make predictions with alarming precision and specificity. Unfortunately it lacks a portal on its surface that allows you to view the prediction.
So who could say for sure whether its predictions were accurate? It would require someone with x-ray vision.
Time to cash in that Vision Eightfold.
On top of all her other advantages, Vriska has one of the most powerful artefacts in the comic. I wonder what she’s been asking it?
