WV is one of the fucking best characters because he was a general/leader who was IN THE MIDST of the fight rather than safely tucked away in a corner sending whole scores of people to meaningless deaths.

Might as well say he'd checkmate the BK if SOMEONE didn't decide to flip the board.

I desperately needed WV to do something as cool as the Battlefield revolution again, but it never happened :(
Still, I'm pretty sure he's one of the luckiest Homestuck characters (besides PM, who I think literally never died), which is good.

WV did more than the majority of the trolls with regards to canon... basically, Mayor is the best and that's all there really is to say on the matter

Hey friendly reminder that WV has built the city-sized Can Toen in A7.

I LOVE THE MAYOR
Though I would like to say I don't like the way the fandom treat him because they infantilize him just for the fact he doesn't speak, he looks cute and he does a funky dance
He's a republican revolutionary world leader who made thousands desert from war to join him looking for peace, survived dying twice (how??) and got to successfully lead an entire society of carapacians on Earth C

WV is good, but he is no baby
he's a WAR VETERAN
1000 times this.

After this interview was shared on these forums, I've got a small glimmer of hope in my heart for WV to become relevant again. I'm curious in what way he'll be able to impact the narrative again. I STRONGLY hope he doesn't continue to be just a simplified and infantilized idiot that nobody takes seriously.
