Midnight Pals: Revenge Arc
🕑 Added 2025-05-12 16:00:14 +0000 UTCCat Voleur: submitted for the approval of the midnight society, i call this the tale of the revenge arc
Voleur: it's about a woman who makes a webcomic about dark web tortures
Voleur: but when her biggest fan starts to take things too seriously
Voleur: things start to get
Voleur: TOO real
Voleur: it's an epistolary novel
Bram Stoker: yes
Voleur: about sketchy internet stuff
Eve Harms: yes
Voleur: you gotta watch yourself on the dark web
Voleur: or you might even become
Voleur: roadkill on the information superhighway
Stephen King: ah haha hahahah!
King: that's a good one!
Voleur: yeah i thought you would like that
King: ah ha ha! roadkill! information super highway!
King: hahaha that slays me!
Cat Voleur: she's making an extreme horror comic all about the dark web
Poe: oh, so keenspace?
Voleur: what? No! the DARK web
Poe: oh!
Poe: so drunk duck?
King: "roadkill on the information superhighway!" ha ha ha!
Stephen King: I know all about webcomics
King: they're like comics but on the internet
King: you put them on keenspace
Grady Hendrix: [flipping skateboard] "keenspace?"
Hendrix: get with it, old man!
Hendrix: it's comicgenesis now!
Poe: how do you know about webcomics, steve?
King: oh scott mccloud was talking about them
Scott McCloud: to understand a comic, you must picture an infinite plane in 8 dimensions, bisecting the dreamscape unilaterally forever
McCloud: a comic is like a dream your butt has
Voleur: anyway, this woman makes an extreme webcomic
Voleur: not your dad's webcomic! it's real EDGY
Frank Belknap Long: like Jack?
Voleur:
Voleur: sure, edgy like Jack
Voleur: but not furry
Voleur: so the fan kidnaps her and tortures her
Voleur: but her absence doesn't raise any eyebrows because she put her webcomic on hiatus
Voleur: and i don't think you all understand how long the average webcomic hiatus is
King:
King: how long is the average webcomic hiatus?
Voleur: i mean, technically it depends
Voleur: there's the "i'm busy with midterms" hiatus
Voleur: and the "not enough of you are signing my guestbook" hiatus
King: how long do they last?
Voleur: forever
Voleur: they both last forever
Voleur: the guy who tortures her is all "ah yes. so good of you to come to my lair. but you must ask yourself… am i the monster of your dreams? or am i the hero of your nightmares? is this your curse… or your destiny? you could have been the ace of knives. yet you chose to play the fool."
Voleur: "have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moon light? do you believe in the power of a curse? can you remember the tallest man you've ever seen? do you love to go awanderin' beneath a clear blue sky? have you noticed what big star real estate agents have become?"
