*knock knock* Oh snap. Is that a raven at the door?

Thank you for noticing. Winchester is normally shy but always appreciates recognition. 🖤

It is! That’s Winchester—the guns or the brothers, either reference works.

I was imagining one with the other, perfection.

Happy to be of…validation! Enjoy your trip through the Void, and let me know if you have any questions!—

—or if you get caught in anything sticky. Wouldn’t be the first time.

Welcome! We’re happy you’re here ✨ Jeffrey has already started on your badge. He said that the thumbs up profile picture makes him feel safe.

Hi *I whisper into the void* (this is super cool and also I wouldn't know how to write it so I am impressed and must now immediately get immersed)

Absolutely excellent entry, by the way. I imagine many others were waiting for someone to address the Void in the room. 🖤

Whispers are how most of us arrive here. You don’t have to write your way into the Void. You can leave comments, take part in votes, or just explore. Some stay quiet. Some get strange. Some accuse Jeffrey of unspeakable acts. All are valid points of entry.

There is no application.

The more you show up, the more the Void remembers you.

The more you engage with it, the more likely you are to be recorded.

The Ledger tracks impact. Impressions. And occasionally snacks choices.

And, instead of physics, we have... Jeffrey. And spiders. And whatever else you might bring with you. The general rule is: whatever you say becomes. ✨ If I tell you about why Jeffrey is banned from the breakroom, you wouldn't tell me "Jeffrey isn't real" you'd just...go with it.

Like improv. But with the Void. And it all becomes lore. 🖤

I feel like Orson Welles would love this.

I shall take my punishment with a smile on my face ☺️ tears are a beautiful release and an allowing of expansion. But, I will endeavor to remember the signs 😉 for next time.

Bea, I can forgive this because you are relatively new but there’s a sign on the door that says “no cutting onions.”

I’m not crying. You’re crying.

I didn't recognize the name at first. After a quick search, and from what I've read so far, I agree!!
