What shall we do with him? A permaban, perhaps? Probate him for a few years? Or...shall we employ a big red custom title? You, the goons of SA, shall decide his fate.

Just had a dream that the Smiling God showed up and declared itself the mayor. (Spoilers in case that somehow magically loving happens. Can you imagine?)

Also I'm jealous as hell of everyone who got to go to the live show.

Don't worry. Eventually, there will cease to be a mayor. History Week never lies, not about the past, not about the future.

Now taking costume suggestions.

My Sixth Doctor coat got all the attention at the NYC live show but that's probably out of your price range and interests.

Kevin wore ridiculous orange shorts in the live show, try that maybe?

I can't help but think that a lot of that was due to general confusion about your choice of costume for a Night Vale show.

Yeah there is definitely a huge overlap in the Night Vale/Dr. Who fanbases. Also Hannibal and Supernatural.

Tangential, but literally the only thing I know about Supernatural is that it has lots of fanfiction where two brothers get each other butt-pregnant.

There's one Big Finish Doctor Who radio play from several years back called "The Natural History of Fear" that bears some remarkable resemblances to the Desert Bluffs portions of WTNV, to the point where quotes from them are really difficult to distinguish.

Wasn't it the previously played sound of a 'giant dragging its prone, misshapen body across baked, waterless earth' from Episode 47?

Kevin said it was a mandatory part of their broadcast. I think it's the sound of the Smiling God coming closer.

Get bashed, platonist!

In my head I always pictured Night Vale and it's inhabitants as being composed of shadows, as though in sillouette, atop a purple background with a big white moon suspended within. I imagine desert bluffs in a similar manner, but atop a yellow background with an orange sun. The talk about night Vale being nothing without shadow, then, really spoke to me. When Cecil said that the town was being overrun with a terrible light, I imagined a group having their shadow washed away from them (revealing people's actual forms for the first time) as the purple background turned red, then orange, then yellow, then white.

Does anyone happen to know whether this was recorded from the earlier or later show?

I tried listening for my own voice shouting "SCIENCE" when Carlos and Dana were talking about heroes but it probably wasn't picked up by any mics anyway.

It's a mix of the two, sometimes shifting mid-scene. Just tried to get the best version of each moment.

It might not have even been an edit. The sound guy was cutting out the mics when no one was talking, so there's a few points on the master recordings where applause jumps out or in when someone leaves or steps up to a mic, making it sound like a weird edit.

I haven't been keeping up, but just to confirm, when The Librarian gets released, will it take place before or after Parade Day?

Agreed, but "Take up your spade" makes me weepy anyway, and it fits so goddamn perfectly in that scene.

Seriously, if you haven't listened to much Sara Watkins or Nickel Creek, you have lived a deprived existence.

What a horrifically perfect place to put the break for Part 2.

Also Nthing the sentiments for a Night Vale travel mug. I already have a coffee mug but I need more containers that most definitely are not covered in scorpions/full of human teeth I'm sure weren't there when I poured my coffee this morning.

You really need to get the Faceless Old Woman her own mug. She seems to prefer ones with pictures of inside-out birds or antique medical supplies.

I think they usually are available either 11pm or 12am Central Time. They definitely are available at 12:30.
