What Is To Blame?

The Spiral

Uhhhhhh um uh um. Well you see! If you look at the horrorterrors as a kind of disease. Right? Yeah?

Actually! You know what? I already said the real Corruption avatars were the ones that wore Green. Actually I think Rose would be an avatar of the Vast. With a Lonely alignment. I can explain this in detail if you’ll give me a few seconds.

So, like.

Coming back to the horrorterrors. They’re really, like, Lovecraftian! Like Cthulhu. Lovecraftian horror is very Vast. On account of the knowledge beyond our comprehension and stuff. She’s also just really into Cthulhu and all, she’s got merch and stuff all over her room. So OBVIOUSLY this is very Vast. PLUS Kanaya compares her to a pink sun (star!! Space!! Very big!!) and that’s a motif that appears behind her sometimes. So she’s got ties to space, knowledge beyond comprehension, big tentacle monsters, you know. And her becoming Grimdark and stuff was kinda like her Becoming. And then! She pushes away meaningful connection from the people in her life by, like, psychoanalysis-ing them and stuff all the time. She’s all, like, clinical instead of offering support the way a friend would. And she’s really sarcastic and she always assumes her mom has ulterior motives and is trying to make her miserable all the time even when she’s actually not because she won’t admit her mom actually likes her. So there.

You are desperately digging yourself into a hole just to annoy me and you know it. This makes you Buried aligned, I suppose!

*judging by the Archivist’s face, it’s very effective.*

And it’s working so well! I Heart Hole and so on. Also? Prove me wrong. Did I lie? Is that not some Vast shit?

You’ve said the words « knowledge beyond comprehension » twice here, because you know you have so few arguments you have to try and pretend a facet of the Eye is Vast; it’s in the overlap at best. The Horrorterrors themselves may have some Vast to them - and I certainly wouldn’t call it the entirety of them! - but Rose herself was only ever seeking their knowledge. It’s forbidden knowledge that sent her over the edge and turned her Grimdark. She is a Seer of Light. Light, the aspect of, again, knowledge, represented by that sun you once more try to pass up as Vast in a flagrant display of denial. She would be a Watcher and you know it.

And yes, she is marked by Loneliness. Few of them aren’t. They’re teenagers.

omg that’s so silly have you considered that you’re wrong and I’m right

Have you considered that I still haven’t gotten to try my anti-spiral knife on you. I may be tempted to conduct an impromptu science experiment.

You’re right I’m really sorry I shouldn’t have said that. The real Corruption avatar would be Jade. Because she is green.

*deep sigh*

Come back tomorrow.

It should be night for a month just so we can see who panics who lives and who dies

Can I tell you guys about the fucked up meat van that comes through my neighborhood like it’s an ice cream truck because I’m thinking about it again and it’s haunting me

So there’s this meat van that rolls through my neighborhood every so often selling very questionable meat door-to-door, from a an equally dubious business whose yelp reviews are near unanimously abysmal.

You know, just your average, everyday neighborhood institution. You got your fruit stand dude, your ice cream truck driver, your elote guy, your meat van man…This guy’s van was sketchy as all get-out too, just a solid white windowless van with the name painted haphazardly on the side. 

Dude came to my place more than once and was visibly… unwell? Each time. Looked very haggard and would park his van, get out and walk up and down the street VERY loudly singing a made up jingle advertising his wares and carrying armfuls of drippy trays of wet, gray looking meat

He’s notorious for getting shitty with you when you politely tell him to leave, and would get so offended he’d storm back to the van and peel out— sometimes he’d have his coffee or oozing meat trays on the hood he’d forget about that’d fly off when he drove and splatter on the ground. 

Alarmingly when you Google the business address it not only says the business is permanently closed (despite this guy routinely still making his rounds selling stuff door to door), but it’s a RESIDENTIAL ADDRESS. Even worse, Google has shown multiple different addresses for this business in the past few years. All of them have been residential addresses. It’s just some regular ol’ house— But when you open up Google Earth on the address it just cuts to a closeup of a manhole cover!? I damn near believe the meat man’s running this shit out of the sewers

Assuming he isn’t peddling human meat (/j. I think.) my only logical guess as to where this guy obtains his product is I think he resells stuff local businesses (hotels, casinos mainly) reject and don’t want to use for their own restaurants due to quality control issues. There must be something genuinely wrong with the product because many reviews mention people falling ill from it and the meat itself not resembling any previous chicken, steak, fish etc. they’ve ever eaten in the past. A lot specifically mention a slimy, rubbery texture and concerning gray color to the meat.

Worryingly, old negative reviews online I’ve seen for his business mysteriously disappear after a while sometimes— I’ll see if I can find more or if any are archived but I wonder how or why they get taken down

A few updates to this saga:

1. This particular company is banned from selling product in at least one state / had their license revoked there

2. As it turns out, this isn’t just a problem in my area— there are multiple companies that sell meat door-to-door like this. Meat vans are somehow a known phenomenon. My horror upon learning this cannot be overstated.

3. There is a rival door to door meat company in my area that recently came to my house and, turns out, has an equally terrible reputation! However instead of one guy it’s two women this time, which honestly I love to see. Glad these girlbosses are breaking the meat ceiling and diversifying the industry I guess

Every friend group has the bloodthirsty shape-shifting entity that can perfectly imitate the human voice

"wehhh but my friend group doesn't have a bloodthirsty shape-shifting entity that can perfectly imitate the human voice!" oh yeah? Are you really really sure about that?

The Stranger

The Buried 

Yeah this sounds really trustworthy I’d better go write it down on my calendar which will surely confirm what you have told me

I have awful news

Do share.

The Archivist is a fucking liar and I am running away from home I cannot thrive in this household

Verily my sins are punished, and I shall die alone. Make sure not to make too much noise if you sneak back in past eleven.

what if I don’t know when it’s past eleven because I’m in my house getting sooooo much brain damage and it’s literally your fault because you are so mean and cruel to me. What then. Huh.

You’re right. I’m sorry for lying to a young child, that was terrible of me.
