I do love the Unsleeping City but the grit in the oyster for me is the umbral arcana - because what exactly is the governing principle behind what it does and doesn't hide?

So in @merelyroleplayers: Vigil I did my own version called the omission effect, which

a) doesn't stop anyone seeing anything, just makes you incapable of transferring certain events, beings and phenomena from short- to long-term memory

b) was recently revealed as being governed by a repressed Regency-era lady, who sits in a dead end dimension reading transcripts of reality written by abducted and brainwashed clairvoyant stenographers and censoring anything she considers improper

Panel 1: Wizard woman with dark bobbed hair, loose long sleeved shirt, and round glasses reads an open book on a table in front of her.
Panel 2: She looks up and yellow light is reflected in her lenses.
Panel 3: The room is awash in darkness, mostly blue and navy tone. There are bookshelves holding books and contraptions, a curtain, the desk is short as the wizard sits on the floor in front of it. Scattered around her are various items for magic, scrolls, teapots, a globe… etc. The source of light comes from a bumblebee shaped spirit trapped within a magic circle.
The Wizard Sorrow: Do you speak Imperial?
Panel 4-5: long thin panels for spacing.
Boshi: Yes
Boshi: Yes, little wizard…
Panel 1-3: View closes in on Boshi as it glows brightly. The details become clearer that it is the shape of a brightly glowing bumblebee, leaving trails of light behind as it approaches the edge of the magic circle.
Boshi: Will you give me your name?
Panel 1: Sorrow and Boshi look at each other from opposite sides of the blue barrier.
Sorrow: I’m not that stupid.
Panel 2: Sorrow flips through the book in front of her.
Sorrow: What kind of spirit are you?
Panel 3: The yellow light from Boshi shines brighter on her face and she puts a hand over her eyes, irritated.
Panel 4: Close-up on Boshi’s legs, they are birdlike rather than insect legs.
Boshi: The sun that never sleeps, I am light against your skin,
Panel 5: Close-up of Boshi’s flapping wings.
Boshi: Twelve cups of coffee,
Panel 6: Close-up of Boshi’s fluffy striped body.
Boshi: A death march across the desert,
Panel 1: Close-up of Boshi’s insect face with large compound eyes  and drooping antennae.
Boshi: And all the world to overcome
Panel 2: Sorrow stares back, unimpressed.
Sorrow: Right.
Panel 3: Sorrow frowns at the open book in their hands.
Sorrow: You’re smart enough to know coffee.
Panel 4: Sorrow squints and frowns at something she’s found and flips through the book.
Boshi: Little wizard, humans make coffee
Boshi flies through the page over an orange background, leaving yellow light trails behind.
Boshi: Humans understand me
Animals can play
But they only go full tilt to survive
Humans run for fun
Panel 1: Boshi coming to a stop, hovering with a bright glow.
Boshi: I want someone to run with me
Panel 2: Sorrow frowning down at her book.
Sorrow: Well, I hate exercise. So.
Panel 3: Sorrow holds up the book towards Boshi so it can see inside.
Sorrow: What can you tell me about this guy?
Panel 4: Close-up of the page the book is on. There is a humanoid figure cloaked in darkness with a wide brimmed hat. His face is obscured in darkness but two eyes like pinprick stars can be seen.
Boshi: Stranger!
Pilgrim!
King!
PAGE 7
Page is a dark forest under a starry sky, with a winding road going down. There are footprints on the road.
Panel 1: Close-up on Boshi’s face, it’s eyes reflecting the silhouette of the stranger.
Boshi: He walks in the night and I run where it’s bright!
Human titles! Human titles!
Panel 2: Sorrow frowning skeptically.
Sorrow: Right, but none of those is his name.
Boshi: hee hee hee hee hee

PAGE 8
Panel 1: Sorrow scowling.
Sorrow: What’s so funny?
Panel 2: Close-up of a letter on Sorrow’s desk marked “SORROW”
Boshi: Your name that is not your name
Panel 3: Sorrow slamming her hand down to cover the name.
Panel 4: Sorrow standing up, leaning over her desk and scowling with her hand still over the letter.
Sorrow: You’re in a fucking planar binding, you can’t do shit to me.

PAGE 9
Panel 1: Boshi hovers above Sorrow, glowing so bright it’s light fills the panel.
Boshi: What is “Sorrow,” little wisard?
Panel 2: Close-up on Boshi’s face as human fingers start to stretch and emerge from it’s mouth.
Panel 3: The fingers emerge into a hand with a mouth on the palm that talks.
Boshi: With what do you cloak your name?
Panel 4-5: The hand twists and reaches out to touch the edge of the barrier. It has eyes and mouths along its skin and all the mouths speak.
Boshi: How much of it is you?
Panel 1: Sorrow scowling.
Sorrow: What’s so funny?
Panel 2: Close-up of a letter on Sorrow’s desk marked “SORROW”
Boshi: Your name that is not your name

Panel 4-5: The hand twists and reaches out to touch the edge of the barrier. It has eyes and mouths along its skin and all the mouths speak.
Boshi: How much of it is you?
Panel 1: Boshi’s insect body is now obscured by the mass of twisted humanoid arms, though it still glows from within the center mass. The limbs press up against the barrier.
Panel 2: Close-up of Sorrow’s feet in socks, standing up. There is a smashed teacup on the ground and upended books.
Sorrow: You know what coffee is but not sorrow?
Sorrow stands with her hands in front of her in the casting position, a spell glowing blue at her hands. She has an almost resigned and disdainful expression.
Sorrow: Maybe you aren’t one of the smart ones after all.

had an attack of imposter syndrome today on a call about casting I Need A Miracle so this was a very nice thing to hear right this second, thank you ❤️

There’s something that needs to be said to Audio Drama creators/VAs/sound people/anyone working on a show. It’s sappy, but I’m saying it. Because I want to. Because I appreciate you. This is for you, from me, Lemon. (subtitles ARE in the video)

the humble "like" is oft mocked despite what it does for us. "like, three people" is a vastly different statement from "three people". "and i was like 'what the fuck'" is vastly different from "and i said 'what the fuck'". i love you "like" and anyone who says you make people sound stupid will be killed on sight
