Chiming in to say I don't have any particular preferences, though whatever the reason, Gold's gonna go after her with a vengeance, but if you're not ready to have Vriska killed... Gold isn't exactly a fighter by any chance and would probably lose anyway unless he got a really lucky shot, so I'm good with any of the following options post-Belle:
(1. Vriska kills him after a really violent fight.
(2. He kills Vriska after a really violent fight.
(3. They both beat the hell out of each other and end up fleeing the fight for some reason, which leaves both of them alive to fight another day.
Basically I am good with any of these options, but I know death counts get something and I haven't done NEARLY enough plotting to get Gold in the running for a shiny from home, so I figure WHY DENY SOMEONE ELSE THE SHINY.
