okay shhh I'm a teensy bit late in making this post but

holy shit, M.A.I.A. transmission 12???????

ohhhhhhh man. I am so psyched for TGOA tomorrow. I am also feeling extremely validated because I KNEW there'd be something spooky-ooky in M.A.I.A.'s room after the last transmission!!! 🤩😱💀🖤

if you've seen me post before you know that I tend to get wordy, so as usual I'll be rambling under the cut, lol.

Don't be scared of the dark, that is where the dreaming starts.

That's what we've been told, over and over, but the last few transmissions haven't been as reassuring. Especially when we have THIS fun little encounter to wrap it all up before the new episode airs...

Narrator: All of this adds up to a ghost story u̷n̴l̷i̵k̵e̴ ̷ a̶̺̰͓̟̙̦͑͂̕n̴̨̻̭̝̰̭͗ẏ̷̫̩͔̮̬̦̫̏̅͗ͅ ̸͓͚̖̰̞͊́́̈́̇͝ͅ ơ̷̛̖̬̿̈́͊̉̒̿̏̌̒͗̇̌̄͆͌͊̈̆̈́̓͌̀̈́́̐́̽̃͌́̈̒̅̈́̽̂̈́̈́̍̇̋̇͌̎̎͐̚͘̕̕͘̚̕͝͝͝ţ̷̨̢̛͉̣̝̝̣̤͇̮̗̫̗̣̟̳̣̠̩̺̙̰̻̟̰̞̣̠̘͈́̃͐̏́̀͆͛̎̔̊̆́̆́̊̅͒͊͋̎̆̀͂̂́̃̒̔̓̓̄̿̂̀̿̃͊͛̔̕̕͘̕͜͝͝ͅͅh̸̝͚͇̝̟̖̋͆̊͒͂̔̌̓͊̎́̔̐̈́͌̓̄̄̐͒̔̏͊͛̎̄̒͆̓͋́̆͗̇̒̕̕̕̚͝͠͝͝͝͝ȩ̵̧̼̮̖͔͉̣̻̼̞̖͈̝̼̘̣̃̋́̂̔̍̈͗̈́͊̓̀͑̅̌͛͗̊̊͗̕͘ͅṟ̶̨̨̢̨̢̢̛͉̼̣̬̞̼̥͉̦̼̩͓̦̦͍̟͉̣̮̬̼͍̦̣̜͕͔͇̲̜͈͍̫͙͕͇̻̠͓͕̲̀͊́̓̈́̈́͗̇̾͗͗͆̓͗̇͆̅̈́̈́́́͆̓̀̂̄͌͋̍̍͆̇͋̓̊̓̅͌̀́̅̂̔͛̍̈̍͗̑͆́̿̃̀̄͐̐̈͛̕̚̕͘̕͜͜͜͝͝͠͝ͅͅͅ—̴̢̡̛̛͙̖̖̥̲̬̲̲̠̭̠̝̯̤̳̯̝̼̠̰͕̲̣͓̩̝̱̮͉̮̝̩̣̰̬͎̬̘̰̯̫̥̼͓̱͉͇̺̩͎͇̗̦͕̪͖̙̠̗̻̝̣̆͊̎́̒͗̄̽̔̇́̽̓́͊̏́͐̈̈́̍̇͛̉̽͊̀̆̓̀̀̀̓͗̎̾̉̓͆̀̈̓̎͌̓͌̂̀̓̉̐͊̈̌͘͘͘̕̕͘̕͜͜͝͝͠͝͝ͅ

Narrator: ...That was too close. You see, we've been in the light of day thus far, listeners—it was only a matter of time before night fell.

Whatever happens, we'll fight it together.

quick aside: Jackie's art is freaking incredible. After seeing the reruns for TGMH & TBS and these little teasers in the transmissions, I cannot wait to see what pretty & spooky scenes she's got waiting for us in TGOA!!! 🤩

Now, a few thoughts I've had after watching this transmission several times how:

OH MY GOD, I HOPE M.A.I.A. IS OKAY. can the shadows corrupt or damage her??? are we going to see that happening during the broadcast??? are the storytellers no longer safe from the story???

ough, just the way the shadows move, the texture they have, the visible weight of them. they look so tangible, like they have an impact on the world around them, like if they touch you, you'll feel it. It makes me think of falling sand, almost, or a real gritty, heavy smoke that'll mess you the hell up if it gets too close. No wonder M.A.I.A. starts freaking out when it shows up, I would freak out too!

It's definitely time to be scared of the dark—something's happened each time our trusty narrator tries to remind us not to be. Someone wants us to be scared, and I think that someone is probably the mysterious Kal, especially after his portrait reveal. He does nooooot look like he's gonna be up to any good, lmao. very excited to meet him. if he's got control/influence over the shadows, I think it's fair to be worried. (Sorry, Matt! 😬)

then again, the Narrator sounds more weary and resigned than afraid—maybe we can take that as a good sign. He knows more than we do, so if he's not looking forward to this darkness but also isn't hopeless in the face of it, then maybe our heroes don't have to worry too much...? (Of course, I also love whenever it's like *creepy shit happens* *character just sighs and looks annoyed* "ugh, not this shit again" lmao so even if I'm a little scared, I'm having a good time!!! aihsbsnwjwanssjhsbshz)

I think that's all my coherent thoughts for the moment, so bye for now. oh, and

LESS THAN 24 HOURS UNTIL TGOA PART 1!!!
