Summary:
Dr. Kel has been given a job: use a satellite dish array to locate, record, and study signals of various types from outer space. Being alone for over a month in the Switzerland mountains, with little to no communication to the outside world, what’s the worst that could happen?
—-
Esraniki the Ariral is bored and needs to go on a vacation with her best friend Argemia. What’s the worst that could happen?
So I got that Voices of the Void brainrot going on and had a thought about the nightmare sequences. They seem to indicate Dr. Kel fearing things like drowning, enclosed spaces, mannequins, starvation, and so on. But... isn't there a prevalent source of fear in the game that's conspicuously absent from the list of nightmares?
Aliens. Space. The Void and the Voices we hear from it. Dr. Kel never has any nightmares directly relating to these things. Which, to me, implies a lot of things about Kel's 'canon' personality. Like I get the impression that Canon Kel would totally be down to hang out with the Arirals, possibly being largely unaffected by the "fake alien abduction/invasion" pranks.
In other words, Dr. Kel feels like one of those chat members saying the game feels 'cozy' while the streamer is in the verge of a heart attack.
But y'know. That's just my interpretation/speculation.
