ok i went until the 6th episode and my main takeaway is that carlos is the real first male victim of misogyny. hes out there in his scientific duties and everyone is just around giggling saying yes carlos hihihi youre so pretty i bet you could use your jaw to cut this sample youre dealing with hihihi and its so unprofessional. please let him do his work?

#welcome to night vale #cecil can keep up because he just shoves the compliments in the middle of the reports thats ok i guess

[weirdly-specific-but-ok]

welcome to night vale but i've never listened to it

I walk into the Maggots Lounge and am immediately informed that this post is an absolute necessity so here we are. I'm not sure what's happening.

I tried searching for the WTNV tag on tumblr. All I got was gratuitous nudity links. I gave up and went to my ol' buddy Pinterest.

Cecil is a guy and he likes it when Carlos takes charge.

Do Not Enter The Dog Park.

There are folks in hoods roaming the dog park with static. Probably bad signals on their radios idk.

They eat pizza.

Kevin may be important.

Do not look at the hooded figures.

Books are banned? What is this, Florida?

Sorry. Anyway, it's a podcast. I forgot to mention that.

No, really, do not look at the hooded figures. Do Not Perceive.

"It is the granddyke of fiction podcasts," as Jehan, a maggot, said.

Humans and dogs are not allowed in the dog park.

You can play in the Sheriff's Secret Police though. Idk.

It's queer. It is very very queer.

Cecil might be Jewish idk I have a bad cold someone is Jewish, anyway, and they are also very queer.

And in love with Carlos.

Wednesday has been cancelled due to scheduling errors.

It is purple. Idk all the things. They're purple. I may be delirious. The podcast may be delirious. Everyone is delirious.

Even if you are delirious, do not look at the fucking hooded figures.

There's weather.

Whatever the weather is, do not look AT THE GODDAMN HOODED FIGURES.

People find Cecil's voice sexy.

DO NOT LOOK AT THE HOODED FIGURES DO NOT LOOK AT THE HOODED FIGURES DO NOT ENTER THE DOG PARK DO NOT LO

Tagging. Um. I forgot all your tags. I'll just send this post in the maggots lounge. DONT LOOK AT TH--

hc how i think the scions + some others are religiously

• minfilia - very much religious and loyal about it. it is just a personal thing for her and something that has been a comfort over the years, she would never be preachy but it's not something she hides either.

• y'shtola - y'shtola is very spiritual and believes in a lot of things, but it wouldn't be accurate to call her religious as she would never really care to worship any of them.

• lyse - canonically athiest. she thinks theyre probably real but considers them more a figurehead for people, yet doesnt think they deserve it, as people should live for themselves and their neighbors

• thancred - pays his respects and is passively religious (ie he'll get out of a situation by the skin of his teeth and thank thaliak but that's it).

• urianger - prays from time to time. he believes, but is more spiritual than religious; pays deep consideration to the gods' roles in everything, with a larger emphasis on nature/mysticism

• alphinaud - logical about it; believes more in science, but that science must have came from a god. although not overtly religious, he makes efforts to pay his respects to any and all deities, even if they are not ones he believes are most likely to be real

• alisaie - very similar to alphinaud in that she has a logical/practical approach to religion. though, she wants to believe that every god is real, and prays from time to time when a bit of lingering childishness has her doubtful and she needs a hand

• aymeric - church boy who go to church and read his enchiridion. aware of the dangers misuse of religion can cause (obviously) and aims to eliminate that, but still devout in his worship to halone

• estinien - performs religion more than he actually practices it, as it's just so engrained in ishgardian culture that he's caught some habits secondhand. he believes they exist(/ed), it's just not his thing really.

• haurchefant - tell me haurchefant doesnt seem like the guy you went to youth group with your whole life and your parents want to set you up w him because he seems like a good holy young man but when you hook up he's actually insanely horny

anyway thats all i got 4 now

What I think is particularly heart breaking about this episode, is that Esteban is immortalizing a memory that Cecil doesn’t get to experience. Esteban knows about his grandfather, because he has heard the story several times before according to Abby, in fact they all just heard it. Cecil is experiencing, second hand, remnants of a memory that slides off of him. It refuses to stick.

There is something so poetic to me about Cecil being a reporter, a journalist, an observer, and doing everything to piece together a story from literal scraps of his own life, only to find its already been written for him. The story has already been told. Cecil doesn’t listen to stories, he tells them. I can think of nothing more infuriating than a story being told and not having a satisfying ending, or an ending that makes sense. Nothing within the story justified the ending. And yet we have seen it before throughout the show.

I am reminded of the episode It Doesn’t Hold Up, where Cecil watches the last few minutes of his comfort film Cat Ballou, changed and different. He has seen the same movie over and over and over again, and now the ending is different. In the drawing Esteban drew in 245, there is a shovel stuck into the dirt, and there is a boy climbing into a tree. In the ending of Cat Ballou, there is a man digging into the base of the tree. Just like in the episode It Sticks With You, when Abby, Cecil and their mother journey into the woods, and Cecil climbs into a tree over and over and over again until he can no longer remember the outing with his husband and son. Just like in Cassettes, when a young Cecil’s story is cut short, in an ending that Cecil refuses to listen to, immortalized on tape.

Just like in Liminal Spaces, when Cecil enters a space that is neither here nor there and is haunted by someone who tells him that he wants Cecil to remember. The very face that Cecil saw in Cat Ballou in It Doesn’t Hold Up. In fact, he tells Cecil he has no choice, before once again, he is pulled from the story.

Cecil’s whole life is one long interrupted narrative. It’s as if he is an old cassette that isn’t rewound all the way before pulled out of the slot and put back on a shelf. The next person to listen to the tape, unknowing, doesn’t realize where they’re starting off is not the beginning. There are things missing. Cecil has gotten so good at forgetting (and justifiably so) — has forgotten how to stop. He’s recording over the same tape over and over again until the tape inside is no longer coherent. I’m thinking, of the sound of a cassette being rewound, and how it could sound very much like how Cecil is often describing owl sounds.

So, how disquieting, to have your own family stare back at you, privy to information about yourself that you do not get to have. Cecil is there, quite literally, to construct a story for his town, but who is there to construct a story for him? A man you used to hate? A sister you aren’t sure you even like? A husband who you have forgotten before? Children who see and hear more than you realize? The listener?

No. Instead he will sit until dawn comes, and be made a fool out of trying to create a story, maybe even a better one, out of scraps of memories.

#my baby girl is in denial okay and thats ok #i think its normal and healthy and good #im having so many thoughts my nbrain is moving a mile a minute #and like this was NOT coherent bc theres so much i want to talk anout but #damn how fucking sad this episode was im onsessed #i lvoe when cecils going through it #it doesnt hold up #Casette #It Sticks with You #Bedtime Story #cat ballou #liminal spaces #go to the mirror #wtnv #welcome to night vale #cecil palmer #wtnv spoilers
