There's no need to rush to be an adult.


I think that this Disaster Master is a bit more than he appears, especially with the tensions between Cuco and Almond.

That's going to end up being key in this chapter, and in more than a background way.

Yeah ultimately the humor in this was overshadowed by Cuco's disappointment at Almond going straight back to her blustery bullshit ways. Poor guy.

I think the issue is that the forsaken is dangerous because it's both extremely powerful and incredibly stupid.

Well, he's nonthreatening now, but these are the Thousand Fears, i.e., 1000 floors.

Even if the first few are total non-issues, every room is a new data point, and if the bunnies tell him what they're afraid of (like Nautilus just told him!), that's even more. He's learning.

Our chief weapon is disgust.

Disgust and fear, fear and disgust.

Our two weapons are fear and disgust. And ruthless hamhandedness.

Our three weapons are fear, disgust, and ruthless hamhandedness. And an almost fanatical devotion to our headcanon.

Our four... no... Amongst our weapons- Amongst our weaponry... are such elements as fear, disgust- I'll come in again.
