They all should've been at the cluuuuub....

This is my gamquius fanart please dont steal

in case you're wondering what the greatest AMV of all time is, it's this one from 2008.

Doki Doki Smoke club (nightmare blunt rotation either way)

What the BLUB did you just say to me? Mods, cull him! Cull him right now!

i don't think this necessarily counts as redemption. but i think it's interesting how conversations about how equius "could've been redeemed" leave out the sacrifice he (and hal) made as a sprite. arquius didn't just sacrifice his life for the lives of jane roxy dirk and jake, he sacrificed his person. in the sense that he gives up being himself in order to be trapped with caliborn (and gamzee was there too i guess), turning him into the literal ultimate villain of homestuck. he's not dead, he's someone else now. i'm not wording this well i hope this makes sense. it's like arquius sacrificed any potential for redemption in the process of becoming this fusion in order to save the others. and also i feel a lot of hal's character is him fighting to be recognized as his own person and not be demonized or vilified bc at the end of the day he is not a villain. and as arquius he gives that up to save his friends
