A sad character fun fact

Stanfordia is an extremely conservative and conformist free city. They believe that the only pure love is between a yandere and a darling. Ketchup and Mustard had to run away from home in high school after their families found out they were secretly dating, then they wound up in Hilly Rock.

sasha, leitner, and/or michael? :O

sasha: which episode you were most afraid of on your first time listening?

Oh man. To be veeeery honest, episode 2 freaked me out so much? Like, the isolation and the horror of the coffin just. Yikes. Lost john's cave also stands out a ton. I agree with you that s1 was a lot creepier because it was less Knowable and every incident was more spooky and weird rather than sth to fit into a pattern. Schwarzwald, Binary and the one about the mummy also deserve honorary mentions tbh.

leitner: did you do anything this decade you wished you'd listened to tma before doing? likewise, did you do anything that you wish you'd listened to tma after?

God, I really don't know about the former. Nothing comes to mind. As for the latter... possibly getting my diving license. I will now think of the Drowning Titan every time I enter the ocean, I suspect.

michael: did the "influence" of any entities feature prominently throughout your decade? which ones?

The Spiral, the Lonely, the Eye. The Spiral and Lonely... well, I got diagnosed with depression recently? It's been with me for awhile. Depression really is the Lonely and the Spiral combined, a hallway of lying voices telling you to go deeper into the center, further and further from the people you love and the vision of a successful you. The Eye because of my family situation (super queerphobic, I'm closeted and hiding A Lot from them). It's not great, super paranoia-inducing, but I'm alive. The Spiral again because I feel like I've been buried under a lot of lies about how the world is meant to be, how I'm meant to be, and what a functioning society should be that I'm slowly peeling away. An interesting thought. Maybe I'm more Spiral-aligned than I've realised... lotta room for mockery there.

Thanks for the ask!
