Something I stumbled across regarding an earlier Homestuck page:

[8/6/12 11:06:04 PM] blastyoboots: uu: I MAINLY JuST SKIM PAST IT ALL WITH DISGuST. EXCEPT FOR THE PARTS.
uu: WHERE PEOPLE DIE.
uu: I COuLD READ THOSE.
uu: OVER AND OVER.
uu: AND ALSO MAYBE THE PARTS.
uu: WHERE PEOPLE “KISS”?
uu: IN THE WAY THAT WHEN YOu CHANCE uPON SOMETHING.
uu: uNSPEAKABLY AND VISCERALLY ABHORRENT.
uu: IT GETS HARD.
TT: Does it now.
uu: TO PRY YOuR EYES AWAY!
uu: YOu DIDN’T LET ME FINISH.
uu: TO PRY YOuR EYES AWAY.
TT: Oh.
[8/6/12 11:06:12 PM] blastyoboots: someone quoted this sequence
[8/6/12 11:06:20 PM] blastyoboots: and something came to my attention:
[8/6/12 11:06:24 PM] Spongubobble (Kips): the cali’s are tumblr
[8/6/12 11:06:28 PM] blastyoboots: uu: TO PRY YOuR EYES AWAY!
uu: YOu DIDN’T LET ME FINISH.
uu: TO PRY YOuR EYES AWAY.
[8/6/12 11:06:40 PM] blastyoboots: “to pry your eyes away”
[8/6/12 11:06:52 PM] randomlinktime: oh
[8/6/12 11:06:57 PM] blastyoboots: more losing his eyes, necessitating replacements, foreshadowing
[8/6/12 11:07:08 PM] blastyoboots: or more likely Calliope doing it to herself to slow him down

There’s already lots of hints here and there that Caliborn will get his eyes blinded or destroyed. This was just an important one I missed the first time around.

Also:

[8/6/12 11:10:09 PM] randomlinktime: i’m suddenly tempted to work in an oedipus joke to a theory of how that will happen
[8/6/12 11:10:16 PM] blastyoboots: oh wow
[8/6/12 11:10:26 PM] Lisle: Yes, it is a rather oedipal gesture.
