("how
are human minds biggest")
12:53
AM
She’ll be here any minute now.
2:30
AM
Kay, so she’s.. running a little late. I’m probably
in for way worse pain, then.
5:14
AM
..fuck it, I’m going to sleep.
2:49
PM
I dreamt of Donnie.
She was walking in space. Like,
walking… in space. Not on anything. Just walking.
And then a
door appeared.
It opened for her, but I couldn’t see what was
on the other end. I could just see the intense light reflecting off
her beautiful face.
The light was intense enough to burn her
gorgeous face off.
Then I was there. And she turned to look at
me, without a face.
And then Donnie was the slender man.
Then
I woke up!
3:04
PM
Taking a walk to the seaside. Those are always fun.
3:56
PM
Nothing’s here. I can see, like… dolphins or some
other big fish out there in the far distance. But that’s
it.
..wait. Music is playing from somewhere.
Rolling
thunder, crashing waves
Present climax, start in caves
How
are human minds biggest
When nothing does not exist?
…that’s
pretty weird. I just.. I mean.
I’m going home.
4:33
PM
..on the way back, I got to thinking about the whole
Bones mystery. I was thinking about how really odd it was that he’d
come across an ocean just to buy us a super-oven from Brazil. But
then I realized he didn’t buy it for us. He just showed us
the receipt. He lampshaded it. The oven’s important
somehow.
Where’d Donnie put that receipt?
5:02
PM
Found it. Yeah, sold to the restaurant down the street
for an obscenely high number, the B(razilian)-4000k. That’s
four-thousand-thousand.
…wait, no! That’s not.
“Four-thousand-thousand.” That doesn’t make sense! xD What else
could “4000k” mean?
5:04
PM
…I’ve got it. Four-thousand degrees Kelvin.
So
why would Bones give us the receipt, why would he lampshade a really
hot oven?
..why would he even be here?
No, Jordan.
Don’t worry about that one yet. This is the motherfucking Rapture.
Or apocalypse. Whatever. Anything could happen, including Bones
appearing out of nowhere. Remember Ben being a tarantula in your car?
Good point, well made.
So, why would Bones point out an
oven that can burn things at up to 4000 degrees Kelvin?
Well,
Bones likes to say funny-but-helpful things. Bones was always a pro
at helping. He’d help out immensely in Guitar Hero, and he paid for
a lot of drinks when we hung out, ‘cause I was poor. Bones is just
a very helpful dude.
So maybe he’s trying to help here?
Maybe
he’s pointing out the oven exists because I need to burn
something.
…this is going to be almost impossible.
But
then again, they said the same about “Through the Fire and Flames.”
They said the same about “Satch Boogie.” They said the same about
“Visions.” They said the same about “Heroes of our Time!” But
was any of that? No.
In fact, I think I’m going to
solve this problem the exact same way I solved those problems.
10:40
PM
Okay. I’m about as ready as I can get without the
actually important parts of my plan in place.
Now I just need to
wait.
11:00
PM
..huh, there’s my black jacket. Now if only I
could find my trilby and scarf.
11:11
PM
I wish I’d be able to do my plan already oh my god.
11:38
PM
Okay, better idea. I’m going to the marketplace.
(Attached: “I’ve turned back to the drink. This’ll get me through the rest of my story. We released Summer Sucks at a weird point in all of our lives. I don’t know the specifics for everyone else, but my parents couldn’t look at each other anymore, like they both knew something inevitable was gonna happen that they didn’t want to see. Looking back, it was obvious, but at the time I just took it as further excuse to misbehave. But there was something about that album, I think it was while recording ‘Pig Bruiser,’ and Elsie came over and smacked my drumsticks out right from my hands. She yelled at me, asked me what my problem was, why I didn’t take the band seriously enough. At the time, I put on my self-righteous smug look and tuned her right out, but even at the time I felt somehow that she was bringing up something I didn’t want to confront. I acted all aloof to her face, but when the time came for my next take, I played as passionately as I could, and now that song’s one of our fan favourites. Right, so my father. It was a suicide, death by drowning. He left no note, only these notebooks. The last page reads 'The greedy eagle runs not in society but in psychology, and it is infectious. May Queen Sea give me more than life ever did.’ The doctors all said it was a chemical imbalance, that there’s nothing we really could have done to save him. My mother changed that day, and I’ve never seen her leave the house since. She listens to our music. She’s one of the only reasons I still play.”)
