HSBC would be wise to throw readers more bones by returning to characters people actually like instead of lame characters that contributed to Act 6 and beyond being so lame and contrived. If the entire "point" of post-canon is that it doesn't matter and it's all stupid to care about, random nonsense plot points to bring back actually enjoyable characters is a net good. Which is why I enjoyed the Vriska purgatory arc and am excited for this Nepetaverse intermission; I like Vriska and Tavros interacting, I like Doc Scratch and Mindfang and Aradiabot, I like Nepeta and I like the Felt, and I would like to see the dancestors being thrown a bone as well if only just by becoming comic relief background characters that don't get complete arcs. It's not like wasted time on Cronus or Latula or Porrim would be getting in the way of anything important.
