Because I see some people are confused about what all just happened.
Lord English is nearly unkillable. This is because of the power given to him by Caliborn’s dead session. The special thing about a dead session, if you remember, is that you automatically get the hardest denizen (Yogurtboner) and you are given The Choice: carry out the session, live, beat Yodlebooger, and become an unstoppable killing machine, or don’t, die, and end all suffering in all of paradox space.
Caliborn, obviously, chose the former. We see him breaking the clock, which tells when he dies, rendering him unkillable and giving him an incredible amount of power. Here’s the thing about his power, though: it’s really, REALLY massive. So massive, it has to be supplied by a giant sun that’s 2 multiverses large. Enter the Green Sun.
Alt!Calliope, of course, comes from a timeline where she carried out the session. In this session, she chose the alternative choice. By sacrificing herself, she destroyed the Green Sun, thereby draining LE’s power and rendering him killable. In short, LE can be fucked up by any old weapon now.
Any weapon, especially the one weapon meant to be able to destroy him even when he was hyped up on Green Sun power. We can safely assume that the HS juju has successfully destroyed LE once and for all.
And by destroying LE, Alt!Calliope has eliminated the major cause of suffering in paradox space. Assuming that the further stipulations of The Choice do extend beyond LE, I’d like to think that ALL suffering is gone. Like, all of the dream bubbles are destroyed and all the ghosts can live on Earth with everyone else. And Vriska is still alive. And (Vriska) is still happy.
In summary, suffering is gone. That’s the end. No more suffering. You can all live peacefully knowing that your faves are no longer suffering.
