Spoiler: incredibly rude swearing and temper tantrum like just.... don't read this necessarily I AM GONNA PUNCH SOMETHING MY COUNTRY'S MUSIC COPYRIGHT LAWS ARE SO HORRIBLE THE STICK UP THE GEMA'S ASS OUGHTA BURN due to dumb legal reasons I can't watch it because there is music in there T_T
idk if google drive works, I know the GEMA has been fighting with youtube/google over music and copyright since wooping 2009 but I can try if google drives works?
I already pre-ordered the audiobook AND the novel because I AM HYPE and I loved the hp reference I snickered so hard :D AHHH THANKS THE VIDEO WORKS how cute <3 (Esp Dylan, his performance is SO PASSIONATE SO ADORABLE!)
All of them are the cutest dorks. Basically it was the best moment in my life when I got to meet the part of the cast that was on the Europe tour, Cecil Baldwin was incredibly kind and cool about me hyperventilating a bit (read: I WAS SO LIGHT HEADED I THOUGHT I'D FAINT AHHH) I got a weird deer shirt that everyone signed I love it to bits <3
I was honestly not expecting any shows in my country either? Apparently the German WTNV fandom is big and passionate enough to stop in three of our major cities that's like. Impressive. I was 100% prepared to take up a debt with a bank to take a trip to the UK on the off chance that a Europe tour LIKE EVER HAPPENED AT ALL and then they just ANNOUNCED THEY WERE NOT ONLY DOING A EUROPE TOUR BUT THEY WERE GONNA STOP IN MY TOWN AND I basically died a little inside because this is too much luck for a single person to have. also if this happens again you are basically welcome to crash at my place should the tour stop in Berlin again and I am still living there, because the liveshows are gr9 just -heart eyes- I also heard the news on this in a public setting and that is probably the only reason I didn't tear up lol
soooo...how about that new episode, eh? Spoiler ...holy. fucking. shit. is Night Vale canonically an alternate reality in its own universe? a pocket dimension? did the whole world shift, or just Night Vale? where the hell is Desert Bluffs, actually?! there must be others, or how did the submarine get to Night Vale? what happened to Lee Marvin? is the otherworld the real world? is it Night Vale had it not shifted? is it a pocket-pocket dimension? Simone knows. Who else knows? Leonard did not sound surprised. how was Night Vale saved? the angels? Lee Marvin? My sister has theorized that Kevin might be Cecil's alternate-universe brother...? What the fuck happened with the mirrors when Cecil was younger? does being the Voice of Night Vale make you immortal? if so... Leonard? ...Cecil? so many questions.
I have actually completely given up on theories about night vale at this time. I have let go of my theory-formulating flotation device and am content to be dragged along in the current. This is because I have no idea what the hell is going on anymore. #it's a peaceful life #except for the sharks
I... what... WHAT Spoiler: help so the... the desert otherworld has been described as a postapocalyptic wasteland, hasn't it? So we can be pretty sure that the Night Vale that ended in 1983 is the desert otherworld? That... what... Leonard died but apparently not and doesn't even comment on the description of his own death? Cecil has been an intern for a while before 1934 considering no intern has ever been broadcasting on their own in wtnv and he did by then. why did reality split off in 1983 and why did the city council build a dog park in present day that seems to be a giant hole in reality leading straight to a version of Night Vale that was devastated in an apocalypse?
Spoiler who the hell are the hooded figures who patrol within the dog park? again, where the hell is Desert Bluffs? who are the masked army? what the fucking fucker fuck is the Smiling God? it was described as the bright light seeping in from the otherworld, yes? where did it go? Kevin said that Desert Bluffs fell to the Smiling God before Night Vale. ?????? what is the lighthouse? who built the strange settlement with Strexian symbols in it? ...I think I have to go back and listen to everything again...
Spoiler: what. just.... what. 1) WHAT THE EVERLOVING FUCKITY FUCK 2) What the fuck did they do to Cecil's memories he doesn't remember half of that stuff they have him recorded saying wtf Regarding the dog park = alt universe night vale: oh my gods, oh my gods what if the smiling god is the nuclear destruction that is trying to catch up with night vale what if OH MY GODS my own pet theory was/is that night vale is some kind of stuck between dimensions, and the earthquakes no one can feel is reality trying to unstuck night vale 3? 4? 5?) cecil as intern in 1934, aka he must be around a century old by now.... wow, someone held up good @IvyLB well, germany is pretty central in europe ::D one of the reasons everyone was so afraid of a united german state back before it actually happened. also, four cities - München, Hamburg, Köln, Berlin. @Valerie heh ::D if it's berlin that's closest to you, drop me a note next time, i'm from there.
Oh my goddd... I finally listened up to "Voicemails" and the LAST ONE! AAAHHHHHHH! D: When Kevin says he's been "working on something" and he's really excited to show you and you should get back to him "ASAP" that's when you FUCKING RUN DUDE. *horrified screaming*
Spoiler: Spoilers for the most recent episode, and callback to ep 14 Leann Hart, and her lazy river of champagne at her birthday, in an episode released on 1/1. Reference to a New Year's lazy river of champagne in episode 67 .... well.
Spoiler: pedantic dickhead is pedantic about ep 67 that was a swimming pool not a river but yeah apparently champagne is weird too in night vale
suddenly, the entire thread begins to... flicker the entire wtnv thread is flickering in and out of existence! what have you done, @jacktrash . What have you done.
i have... discovered a super amazing night vale fic? http://archiveofourown.org/works/1794037?view_full_work=true wtnv/golden compass verse crossover. carlos's daemon is an armadillo. cecil wears the most remarkable clothes. dana is so patient and reasonable and lonely and brave i just want to huggle her and give her cupcakes forever. tamika is terrifying. third in a series, ultra-longfic, pack a lunch. ... also i just made everyone in the thread crave creamsicle-in-a-glass. you're welcome. :D (edit: no yeah reference secured but that was orange JUICE this is orange MILK like old woman josie used to make and probably still makes because who would try to stop her i mean really)
Not sure where everyone is, so Spoiler: ep 68 - Faceless Old Woman Carlos: Kevin built a radio station!! Me: *repeats the name kevin about ten times each with increasing levels of incredulity*
Caught up with 70a&b yesterday at work Spoiler: aarggh and was desperately trying not to cry happy tears while at work also OMG VIOLET just omg everything but mostly carlos ...though I think it's interesting that kevin went "home is where I am from" and renamed desert bluffs, where carlos was like "home is where people who love you live" I love it when steve carlsberg shows up, just because of how much cecil is "Ugh STEVE"
