I feel the need to chime in right now:

Gamzee cut off Tavros’ head. I do not believe he was aiming for revival here. That is not a thing people typically do to dead people that they think still have a chance at living.

I suppose that kind of depends on whether it was before or after, but seeing that he decapitated his corpse at all, I don’t think he honestly cares enough about him to want to bring him back to life. Let alone him smearing his blood all over the walls.

I don’t mind if you ship it, but I do wish people would treat sopored-up Gamzee and sober Gamzee as completely separate characters.

Edit:

ALSO:

If alternate-timeline sober Gamzee didn’t give a shit about keeping Tavros alive, why would this one?
