finn and i saw eight turtles and ate tacos at el rey today

i am getting so much out of rereading old books and rewatching old shows, i might lean into that for a while. not exclusively, but primarily

the warden in escape from alcatraz is not a number, he's a free man

i make my bed every morning with little thought given to it, but on the days i wash my sheets, the task of putting them back on the bed feels insurmountable

we found ourselves passing by andy glass today, even though for obvious reasons that place does not exist

finn was shaken by the encounter

i bought a pint of bourbon at the package store. i'm on my porch drinking some with soda and a little ice. boba is messing with a stinkbug even though i keep telling her they are the bad kind of spicy

THE L O W D O W N

The Cloudcuckoolander gets their name because they always have their head in the clouds to the point that they more or less live there. They’re so outlandish in their ideas and thinking that it can be a little concerning at times. They’re wonderfully eccentric and can bring a certain light to all the dark that takes place in the world, especially in one that is filled with lots of horror and dread. The Cloudcuckoolander is sure to be a fun addition to any party, event, murder, etc. 

THE C O N N E C T I O N S

They’re good, good friends with the Conspiracy Theorist. They are well acquainted with Occult Detective and Nightmare Fetishist as well. It’s also entirely possible that they know Doom Magnet and Haunted Heroine.

The Inspector tends to sound like a reasonable person,

until one really listens to him/her and realises how off his/her rocker the Inspector really is.

[inspectorspacetimerevisited]

One of the reasons the Inspector always escapes from dire situations is

he/she’s just mad enough to do anything, often so mad that his enemies can’t expect what happens.

Tropes #2 & 3- Cloudcuckoolander and Cloudcuckoolander’s Minder

Cloudcuckoolander

Cloudcuckoolander’s Minder

This is a two-part trope. First, Cloudcuckoolander.

This applies to Faiz. He’s odd, sometimes needs his weird phrases translated, and can flip out over the strangest things. This brings us to to the second half, Cloudcuckoolander’s Minder.

This applies to Ace, Faiz’s best friend. Ace is the one to do any necessary translation and calm Faiz’s freak-outs, as well as more mundane things, like reminding him to eat.
