I don't normally post photos or talk about the protest actions I participate in, but I was at the Chicago Stand Up For Science rally on behalf of my job recently and this sign took me out at the knees.

<Daydream Incorporated> is an organization that has jurisdiction over 'darknesses'.
Darknesses, or rather, Ghost Stories.
The employees of Daydream are dispatched into ghost stories to fulfill missions.
Naturally... the probationary period for new hires is also carried out inside ghost stories.
*cla-clack* *cla-clack* *cla-clack*
-[The train is now departing from Sadness Station.]
-[For a pleasant journey to your final destination,
Please listen closely to the guiding announcements.]
Through death survival matches, just like this one.
-AAACK!!
-WHAT DO WE DO NOW?
-DID PEOPLE REALLY JUST DIE?!
To be honest, I have an advantage over the other new hires.
-(I've read this entire ghost story wiki, after all...)
Eh? Then don't you have this in the bag?
...You might be thinking that.
"ISEKAI EXORCIST HUNTER

You transmigrate into a fictional universe you like, equipped with total superiority from your knowledge of the world,
and monopolize the upcoming opportunities/connections and items to become a typical op protagonist("munchkin")--
--That sure would be nice.
-(There's just one problem...)
An extremely crucial one at that. 
*squeeze*
.......I,
...I CAN'T LOOK AT SCARY THINGS, F***...!

[ME?]
That's right, I'm a coward.
(THUMB'S UP! Kim Soleum-nim gave it a like!)
Text horror is fine. It can be a pretty interesting read.
(Kim Soleum-nim has fainted. ☠️x100)
(ghost: PEEKABOO~)
But I'm a coward who can't handle it as soon as there's images involved.
Even when reading the wiki, if there's a scary background image or BGM, I turn it off and only read the text!!
And Wetube(youtube) ghost stories too, I click "not interested" on all of them because of the scary thumbnails!!
Even when I submitted* my own ghost stories, I couldn't include a single scary image!! (*the verb he used specifically means "submit unsolicitedly")
ghost: (pixely) You have to add an image to raise the resolution.
soleum: Sorry, but I'm a coward so no matter what ghost story it is, I can't look at images.
ghost: I'm the ghost story that you wrote!!
soleum: I'm afraid there are no exceptions.
Even among my friends...
<is it fr true that kim soleum's crush wanted to watch a horror movie together but he turned her down cuz he can't watch them?
<fuck soleum-ah ur name is "soreum"(goosebumps) and yet u cant even watch horror movies LMFAOOOOOooo
(kse:) >lol
>wanna die?
<I apologize.
<I apologize.

Let's go over what was written about the Field Exploration Team in the wiki.

A significant force(/faction) that appears in <DER>.
One of the 5 teams under the control of Daydream Inc.'s development department.
An unlucky team commonly referred to as the death squad. |

-Wow! It's Daydream Inc!

-One of the 3 most famous factions in our <DER>!
I'm well aware.
It's the cliche of a large corporation that does business with ghost stories.
"Field Exploration Team
Kim Soleum"
And within them, the Field Exploration Team--
Is a team that gets sent into ghost stories under the pretense of investigating strange phenomenon, and inevitably gets ground to a pulp.
Of course, thanks to that setting, there were a lot of Named Characters affiliated with the Field Exploration Team.
-I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of amazing things you'll accomplish(*lit: what activities you'll do) in the world of <DER>, employee Kim Soleum-nim!
-Do you like it? You're going to cherish it close to your heart, right?
-Yes.
-(I'm gonna stow it away where no one can see.)
-Liar.

"You fall asleep and wake up inside a subway. It seems just like your usual way home, but somewhere(?), you start to hear strange station names being called-"
A Ghost Story featured in <Darkness Exploration Records>. Daydream Inc. identification code Qterw-D-16.
It's an insane ghost story, the only one among the Dusk(D)-Class darknesses written in the early days that boasts an overwhelming difficulty level.
-and an endless source of suffering for the Field Exploration Team-
There are up to 56 total explorations recorded.
(It activated...!)
The text from <Darkness Exploration Records> that I vaguely remember reading,
has now popped up on my phone screen, the full contents recreated perfectly.
The ghost story world of <Darkness Exploration Records> that I have entered
is the meeting place of hundreds of thousands of ghost stories ignited from the passionate creativity of all kinds of people.
It's hard to recall all those ghost stories off the top of my head,
and top of that, I'd have to infer a way to survive all by myself. Because of this,
Deducing the correct answer right away in these variable situations would be difficult.
However, If I have this--
*squeeze*
What I need to find right now,
are the previous successful escape cases!
-- --
*tap-*
I got it.
-[This stop is Resentment. Resentment Station.]
-(After reading through all the escape cases, I've more or less got an idea of where I(/we) need to get off. )
-[Approaching Resentment Station.]
-(The problem is...)
*raise*
-Ha, no cell service, no data, seriously...
*cla-clack cla-clack*
-Resentment Station...? Like when people are angry, that kind of resentment...? *quiver/shudder*
How do I convince these people
to get off at the right station?
*peek/glance*
I have to make sure as many people as possible get off with me...
Is it because I feel some noble sense of duty to save as many lives as I can, you ask?
✨Kim Soleum-nim will protect you~
Long live Field Exploration~✨
Of Course Not.
I mean, as a human being, it's true that I do feel that way, but...
Didn't I tell you?
I can't get off alone...
A station filled with eyeballs,
A station shrouded in total darkness,
A station that's been flipped upside down.
There's over 90% chance that I'll faint midway and fail to escape...!
*faint*
So... *soft step*
I have to do whatever it takes to persuade everyone,
so we can all get out together...!
