Okay let me ask you a small question, “Can a culture change over night?”

The answer is no.

Without the game this wouldn’t be an issue for Feferi. But here is the thing, she still has to put up with Equius and Vriska, people who exploit and believe in the Hemospectrum. Vriska and Equius could kill her in a heartbeat. Feferi doesn’t seem like the kind of person to listen to reason, and they don’t seem like the kind to roll with the desecration of their beliefs. Even Gamzee is a firm believer of it too when he’s sobor!

What better way to get someone like that to believe in the shit like that than showing it to them front and center.

Yes I know that right there is speculation but have you read the Official Homestuck Zodiac?! Holy shit it explains a lot!

Honestly though dude, I agree there are way too many downsides to their relationship that are upsides.
