I found it strange that there was no mention of the "light world" that appears to be "hosting" the link between Earth and Sylvain. I wonder if a possible solution would be to get Sylvain (the entity) onto Earth and then sever the link, trapping The Quell on its native planet.

Yeah they seem to still be laboring under the idea that the abominations are coming from the Quell, when it really, really seems like they're not.

Is anyone else getting serious Stephen Root vibes from Clint’s Thacker voice?

I know we're in the last arc and things have to move along, but I could have spent another twenty minutes listening to waffles at Duck's place (they're not vegan).

pretty sure Ned had the most knowledge of the white light beings, given his experience in he shapeshifter’s den, and he never had a chance to explain to the others what he saw there. duck and minerva saw inside the rift obviously but don’t really have enough info to contextualize that yet.

I liked Duck's little aside that they knew someone who would be perfect for causing a distraction. They (and Justin in particular) are so good at those authentic slices of life (see also the non-vegan waffles which yes if they just did an episode of that, I bet it'd be hilarious)

awwww yeahhhh mothman's back

my one hope for the arc is this: if the hornets/pine guard/sylphs get caught in the act en route to/from H2Whoa, it's by the Winthrops.

Oh wow, OK, that makes sense. Great job separating player knowledge from character knowledge, in that case.
