>>99837045>>99837025He destroyed a universe by killing Sn0wman and he died as he lived: Being a badass mobster and not giving a shit about stuff.
B-BUT HE HELPED THE TROLLS, HE'S A GOOD BOY, I LOVE HIM!!
A) Even if Slick was helpful towards Karkat here, he would have done so in a context where he had no other options, and interacting with Karkat was likely his only hope for escaping the safe.
B) He isn’t helpful to Karkat anyway.
Seriously. Of the trolls’ exiles, the only one who is implied to be even moderately helpful is Sn0wman. Hearts Boxcars yells at Tavros while he’s going through a traumatic ordeal. Clubs Deuce manages to piss Sollux off until he gets his computer blown up, despite trying to help. Diamonds Droog is implied to be the voice behind Aradia making Vriska Pay, but Aradia makes it clear she doesn’t need his help.
Whaddabout Slick?
He yells at Karkat about how much he hates him a little more. While Karkat is going through a traumatic experience. It’s hilarious, don’t get me wrong—just not particularly indicative that Slick cares for these kids at all.
After that, we don’t see Slick again until he shows up in Doc Scratch’s manor. He makes out with Sn0wman, maybe kills Vriska???, gets beat up by the Doc, gets handed a gun and walks off to kill Sn0wman in Cascade.
As I’ve seen some point to the fact that Bec Noir destroyed a universe as a reason he compares unfavorably to Slick, I feel obligated to stress that Slick commits the same crime. Killing Sn0wman ends the Trolls’ universe, just as killing Bilious Slick ends the Kids’.
