What devilry is this? It’s a podcast, once in which we’re wading in rebirth, boasting the brain of a dullard, fighting an old foe who died but didn’t, indulging in gratuity, interrupting pervert preparation, hanging a bag of teeth, refusing to acknowledge death, unpossessing numen, thinking of our sire’s flesh, becoming a blood member of darkness, …

The stone chooses the flesh. You have chosen to listen to us as we’re wondering why Aerith needs money, laughing like Kefka, not agreeing with arbitration, spilling blood on fancy riggins, looking for a good drubbing, refusing to argue with ghosts, killing dead people again, crushing grapes, leaving a fearsome stain, playing dumb and dumber about m…

All such tales of gods and their miracles are false.

The air is thick with death’s foul stench.
