hey girl, your boyfriend uh- yeah, we showed him the weird door in his house that appeared out of nowhere and- yeah, he went through. yeah there's a hallway that's like five and a half minutes long. mhm, he's already down the spiral staircase and everything.¹
no, yeah, he's pretty much abandoned you because of his obsession with the supernatural labyrinth beneath his house. sure, you can fuck his brother if it'll make you feel better (it won't)².
the good news is that he's not really being chased by a minotaur. gotta look on the bright side, right? yup, just a manifestation of his trauma. textbook, honestly.
anyway it's just that the narrative is crumpling a little bit. just like the house is unstable, so is the story's fourth wall. he's trapped in the house and you're trapped in the story. sorry, girl.

¹ I seriously can't even fucking believe it's yet another one of these fucking memes. Like the author just thought it was so fucking clever. Yeah, we all have access to text editors and shit. Anyone could have made this.
² Doe, Jane. "Cuckoldry and Infidelity: The Pointlessness of Shallow Cheating." Extramarital Affairs Quarterly, 123, 45, March 7, 2000, 99-103.
³ This is an especially fascinating entry. The original author did take the time in the hand-written manuscript to carefully write each letter upside down rather than simply rotating the page. They even went to the trouble of writing the second sentence, despite eventually choosing to cross it out like nearly every other reference to the classic Greek myth.

Vox Machina really is the epitome of “we defeated you with the power of friendship… and this gun we found(this guy we know made)”.

find it hilarious that there was so much fun debate about whether adam/gangsey were responsible for manslaughter with whelk and in dreamer trilogy it’s like. multiple main characters in one way or the other are responsible for mass murders. hennessy declan liliana farooq-lane (and i guess even parsifal and bryde at the end) racking up body count in DOZENS and DOZENS

Ah! Well. Nevertheless,
You know, this wasn't supposed to be a series. But here we are: Miego hell in its full, fiery glory.
One-shot from Mia's POV, filling in some suggestive gaps in canon. Timeline jumps around a bit, but follows my happy Miego fic. (This one is not happy! Check the tags.)
I have a few more of these in the works, including some Godot-being-dreadful fic and some bittersweet reunion fic, so feel free to follow the series if you're into that sort of thing.
