NEW JAFFA FACTORY EPISODE SPOILERS (16 (or 15 - timezones) /12/2024)
im back - im apparently unable to prevent myself from live-blogging exciting episodes - we need a lore library for yogs stuff so soooo bad. i will nominate myself lore scribe as long as someone else organises things.
possible lore/references/other gubbins:
the planned build of a giant pipe leaking toxic liquid into the environment is so yoglabs coded to me, but i don't know if thats intentional
retrofitting 'xeph loves decorating' into all of my headcanons now. imagine you're honeydew, you've collected this scrunkly guy who 2 weeks ago wouldn't make eye contact but is now fighting with a vendor about the cost of throw pillows. you live in a cave.
"get your swords - " "i have an iron shovel - oh shit i have a rattle snake" "A SNAKE?" "go put the snake up there!" xephos throwing a snake at someone in a fit of panic. yeah i'll work that into my mental image of him. OH NO THE SNAKE. it's been 20 seconds and i miss him already.
the netscape music mod is a bit scuffed, i do love it.
"this could have been an email" xeph and barry with 0 attention span. this is supporting my audhd xeph headcanon thank you.
ohhh thisss is where the warship from the jaffa stream came from!
"it feels kind of harsh calling our friends aliens" here is how alien xeph can still win - it's just a rude thing to call someone. this explains all the 'spaceman' stuff! he's a guy from space, but you can't call him an alien - that's messed up!
100% lore:
the ship shows up and xeph is just "ALIENS!!! :D" i love him.
an audio log, a mushroom and a lodestone compass? hmmm. is this. is this blackrock? its purple? i might be reaching
OH MY GOD IT'S RYTHIAN I WASN't REACHING
xephos and barry wont shut the fuck up over the audio which is hilarious, but also implies they don't know why lalna would give a shit about the message - missing memories from xeph maybe? or maybe lalna never said. exactly what he did. hm.
"he sounds,,, sad" oh xeph,,, yeah he does,,,
"there is no shame in recognising when the enemy is at an advantage" oh my god im gonna explode RYTHIAN
"good luck, and - thank you." oh my oh my - does he know lalna is the one he's asking??? rythna is so back lets goooooo. now he's making the warship it purple, for rythian, im - this is very cute.
oh oh oh
"He's not dead - this isn't a memorium is it?" "How do we know?" "Or - is he? I don't know what year this is - maybe we're all clones. Who knows when it was sent." "Maybe this quest is thousands of years old."
