Hello! I’m Georgie Barker, She/Her :D I’m the host of the podcast What The Ghost! I’m mostly just going to be chilling here and whatnot, nothing too serious :)
why do you hate the spiral what doomed yaoi is there between your patrons
Doomed–what. What?
There are multiple things to talk about here. First: I don't hate the Spiral, I just don't get the big deal about fractals. Second: is it really yaoi if both beings involved are genderless cosmic entities with no clear boundaries between any of them?
But, well, you'd have to ask @the-corruption-official for more details, wouldn't you?
Oh God, um... sorry, I just... I've had about a thousand people tell me exactly how much they'd like to have sex with both of you.
I don't think I can really focus on the question to be honest.
i — what. okay, we’re ignoring that.
@jane-prentiss-offical, onto the next person i suppose? do you have any suggestions?
Not...not really...
I...um. I don't know. What to think about that.
…me neither.
@daisy-tonner-offical, will you help convince jane that fractals are better than her wasp larvae?
Better idea! Why don't I just– *pulls out a gun and a knife*
…okay so shes a no.
@jane-prentiss-offical? should we move onto the entities now, or is there anyone else we can ask?
Yeah, definitely a no.
Have we asked @melanie-king-offical yet?
oh, we haven’t! @melanie-king-offical, help!
......keep me out of this supernatural argument shit. not fractals or worms. they're both creepy.
... actually, no, I like Helen, so fractals it is I guess.
HELL YEAH!! @jane-prentiss-offical, finally we’ve met someone who has some sense!!
it's for Helen. Not you.
@jane-prentiss-offical
That doesn't count! She's biased because she's friends with Helen!
are you kidding me? shes the second person who has said she prefers fractals!
oh, whatever. we can get more people to help then, i suppose. just so i can prove that people do know fractals are better. who’ll we go to next?
Uh...oh! I know!
@what-the-georgie can you help us? [Totally not internally fangirling]
come on @what-the-georgie [totally not fanmonstering either]
I guess the Spiral? I prefer weird colours over mould and... all the other disgusting things.
Hi Melanie :) How are things?
@what-the-georgie
Hey Georgie. Things are... well. About as shit as usual in the Archives. How're you?
Oof, sorry. I'm doing alright. Got new stuff for the Admiral.
Neat. Um.. maybe we should get.. coffee or something sometime? Been a while since I've seen you outside of talking about WTG, would be nice. Tell the Admiral I say hi, won't you?
Sounds great! And yeah, I'll tell him hi for you.
Say.. Friday? 10? That nice place near your apartment?
Yeah, I’m good with that. Been a while since I went there.
Perfect. I'll see you there, then.
See you!

[Someone’s scheduled a statement for next week.]
[…Their name is Georgina Barker.]
@what-the-georgie
[Jon recognized that name. Georgie… God, how long has it been since he last talked to her? Guess he’ll have to wait until she walks into his office to catch up.]
[The day arrives. There's a knock on Jon's office door.]
[Jon mentally prepares himself.] Come in. It’s open.
[Georgie Barker, in the flesh, opens the door.]
Hi, er-- oh.
[She stares.]
Jon?
[He clears his throat.] Hello, Georgie.
I... hey, Jon.
[She looks down at her feet.]
I, uh. Came to make a statement.
Yes, I gathered as much… That’s what we do here. [Jon gestures for her to sit.] You can sit if you’d like. [He was trying to keep the awkwardness to a minimum and was failing.]
Yeah, uh... yeah. Sounds good.
[She goes in and shuts the door behind her, then takes a seat.]
So, Georgie I- before you um- give your statement, how have you been? I’m sorry I haven’t stayed in touch..
Ah, er— yeah, I’ve been okay. I started a podcast, after, uh…
[She coughs.]
What about you? You doing okay?
Good that’s um-… I’ve been alright. Got promoted, as you can see. [He stares down at his hands resting on his desk.]
Yep, I uh, can see that. Good for you.
[She just gives him a thumbs up.]
Didn’t really expect you to work somewhere like this place.
Yes well, me neither to be completely honest. It’s… It pays well. [He shrugs. Sort of well… That’s beside the point.]
Yeah. The… the building could use some work.
[She knocks on the wall. It feels thin.]
[Jon sighs.] Yes, it very well could.
Mhm. So— my, uh, statement.
Right. Statement of Georgie Barker, regarding…?
Meetings for work with someone named Sarah Baldwin.
[Someone’s scheduled a statement for next week.]
[…Their name is Georgina Barker.]

[She knocks on the wall. It feels thin.]
[There’s a knock at Amyra’s door.]
@what-the-georgie
[ Amyra answers only a moment later, smiling as they open the door ]
Georgie! Had a feeling you'd come around soon.
Yep! You always seem to know that, hah. You ready?
Mhm. It's been a while, hasn't it? Hope we can do this more often when I get use to having an actual stable job.
God, yeah, that'd be great.
[Georgie steps away from the front door to let Amyra leave.]
So-- how's the new job?
[ Amyra steps out and locks the door behind them ]
Oh, that. I'm guessing you haven't heard about my amazing new department head?
What, is it-- I dunno, Jon, or something?
[ Loud silence, followed by the most pained look in the universe ]
[Her jaw. Drops.]
No way. No way in hell Jon's your-- seriously?
Does it look like I'm joking, Georgie? Yeah, it was a whole thing. I can't wait to make him unbelievably awkward though, so. That's a bonus...?
Amazing. Prank him for me while he’s doing something important.
[She starts walking.]
Other than the job, how are things?
Absolutely.
Uh. Not that different, to be honest. Just depressing every day life, all that horrific capitalism stuff. Anything new with you?
I made a-- friend.
[Her face is a bit red.]
Ooh?
[ Amyra leans closer, interested ]
What's this friend like?
Her name's Melanie King, met her online. She's the host of Ghost Hunt UK... she's nice, fun to talk to...
[Getting more red!]
[ Yup, everyone in their life was horrifically obvious. Hopefully this Melanie character was actually someone compatible ]
Well, if you like her so much you'll have to introduce me sometime! Seems like the two of you get along quite well from your tone.
Oh my god— look, I don’t even know her that well, she’s just really pretty. And fun, and a lot of other nice things.
I'm happy for you! Seriously. You need more friends that aren't total losers. Which is why you have me, no?
Hey, I talk to people who aren’t Jon. You just haven’t met them. Besides, I haven’t really seen your friends either.
I have friends. Like my neighbours. And... uh. nevermind. The job will probably get me some more anyways. They're all chill enough to be around, ignoring the horrors.
Ooh, nice. You met anyone yet?
Mostly just people in the same department. There's Sasha, she seems pretty cool. Or she knows how to sound like she knows what she's doing. Martin too. He's... resourceful, I'd say. And seems nice. Oh! and apparently Jon has beef with him. There's Tim. He's mostly chill as well. Feels like he'd be a party person.
Good for you! Hope you make friends.
Think I’m surprised Jon doesn’t have more enemies. Then again, he’s been there awhile.
From what I've heard, the Archives are generally regarded as weird, so that might be why? But all of them were in the library before so- then again, I suppose a stuffy academic character is a popular type in that sort of workplace.
Maybe. The others you mentioned didn’t seem the type, though? Aside from Jon, I guess.
Yeahhh. Perhaps that's why they aren't too popular. That seems a bit unrealistic, though. I'll see for myself soon enough what the deal is.
Good luck finding out. I think we're almost there? Should be a few blocks up ahead.
Ha, thanks. Been a while since I've eaten out, I wonder if the menu has any extras.
... probably not. But one can hope.
They actually do! It’s just a fast food restaurant though, nothing special. We’re here!
[They’re standing in front of a Jollibee.]
[ Well that's... something. Amyra snorts out loud at the mascot. ]
What's that supposed to be, a, a ... red... chipmunk?
[ Their voice grows increasingly unsure after every syllable ]
[She starts giggling to herself.]
Forgot how unsettling he looks to people. He’s a bee.
He. It- the bee has a gender. You haven't brought me to the newest FNAF chain, have you?
[That’s when she starts laughing.]
Ugh, don’t remind me. Some of my friends are obsessed with it. It’s just fried chicken.
Alright, if you say soooo. Let's go find a table near a window. Doesn't look too busy, thank god.
You go do that, I’ll get in line to order. Go look at what you want.
Thanks a bunch.
[ Amyra does check out the place, before settling at a table near the side ]
[Georgie gets in line and writes down her order on her phone, before asking Amyra what they want.]
[Someone’s scheduled a statement for next week.]

Does it look like I'm joking, Georgie? Yeah, it was a whole thing. I can't wait to make him unbelievably awkward though, so. That's a bonus...?
Amazing. Prank him for me while he’s doing something important.
[She starts walking.]
Other than the job, how are things?
Absolutely.
Uh. Not that different, to be honest. Just depressing every day life, all that horrific capitalism stuff. Anything new with you?
I made a-- friend.
[Her face is a bit red.]
Ooh?
[ Amyra leans closer, interested ]
What's this friend like?
Her name's Melanie King, met her online. She's the host of Ghost Hunt UK... she's nice, fun to talk to...
[Getting more red!]
[ Yup, everyone in their life was horrifically obvious. Hopefully this Melanie character was actually someone compatible ]
Well, if you like her so much you'll have to introduce me sometime! Seems like the two of you get along quite well from your tone.
Oh my god— look, I don’t even know her that well, she’s just really pretty. And fun, and a lot of other nice things.
I'm happy for you! Seriously. You need more friends that aren't total losers. Which is why you have me, no?
Hey, I talk to people who aren’t Jon. You just haven’t met them. Besides, I haven’t really seen your friends either.
I have friends. Like my neighbours. And... uh. nevermind. The job will probably get me some more anyways. They're all chill enough to be around, ignoring the horrors.
Ooh, nice. You met anyone yet?
Mostly just people in the same department. There's Sasha, she seems pretty cool. Or she knows how to sound like she knows what she's doing. Martin too. He's... resourceful, I'd say. And seems nice. Oh! and apparently Jon has beef with him. There's Tim. He's mostly chill as well. Feels like he'd be a party person.
Good for you! Hope you make friends.
Think I’m surprised Jon doesn’t have more enemies. Then again, he’s been there awhile.
From what I've heard, the Archives are generally regarded as weird, so that might be why? But all of them were in the library before so- then again, I suppose a stuffy academic character is a popular type in that sort of workplace.
Maybe. The others you mentioned didn’t seem the type, though? Aside from Jon, I guess.
Yeahhh. Perhaps that's why they aren't too popular. That seems a bit unrealistic, though. I'll see for myself soon enough what the deal is.
Good luck finding out. I think we're almost there? Should be a few blocks up ahead.
Ha, thanks. Been a while since I've eaten out, I wonder if the menu has any extras.
... probably not. But one can hope.
They actually do! It’s just a fast food restaurant though, nothing special. We’re here!
[They’re standing in front of a Jollibee.]
[There’s a knock at Amyra’s door.]
@what-the-georgie
[ Amyra answers only a moment later, smiling as they open the door ]
Georgie! Had a feeling you'd come around soon.
Yep! You always seem to know that, hah. You ready?
Mhm. It's been a while, hasn't it? Hope we can do this more often when I get use to having an actual stable job.
God, yeah, that'd be great.
[Georgie steps away from the front door to let Amyra leave.]
So-- how's the new job?
[ Amyra steps out and locks the door behind them ]
Oh, that. I'm guessing you haven't heard about my amazing new department head?
What, is it-- I dunno, Jon, or something?
[ Loud silence, followed by the most pained look in the universe ]
[Her jaw. Drops.]
No way. No way in hell Jon's your-- seriously?
