    Summary

    Spoilers for WTNV up to 'Cassette'. There are rumours in Night Vale that Cecil Palmer cannot die. Old Woman Josie knows this to be false. Cecil Palmer died when he was 15 years old. He has died many times since then. He just doesn't let that stop him.

    Summary

    (EDITS and new chapters coming, Feb. 2020--the muse is back!)

    Cecil is the Voice of Night Vale. This is common knowledge, of course, and each night, the calming baritone of his voice sweeps over the city, bringing news and insights to each and every citizen of the small desert town.

    Why is it, then, that Cecil was missing for four years during his time as an Intern? The prophecy came true, and a Radio Host needed to be created. The others didn't last, but Cecil was strong enough to survive Station Management, after all.

    Years later, he lives a quiet and happy life, with a one Carlos the Scientist, perfect and gentle, caring and loving. But the past dies hard, and it may be time for Cecil to prove his loyalty to Night Vale one more time.

    Post Cassette.

    Much of Cecil's back story, including abuse/rape/torture is present here, so do tread carefully.

    Summary

    Her sister says she should have been worried a long time ago. Kathy argues that she had never thought it was a bad thing to encourage her son's creativity, to which the sister replies "He thinks librarians are going to eat him. He has always thought that librarians were going to eat him. You didn't think that was a bit unhealthy?" But in Kathy's defense, the librarians had never complained about her son, and he hadn't tried to climb the bookshelves since he was three.

    Summary

    More than a century after the events of His Dark Materials, a Rusakov particle physicist (and lifelong Lyra Belacqua fanboy) brings a team of experimental theologians to Night Vale.

    It was supposed to be a simple research trip. Instead, Carlos finds himself making a home, falling in love, and — with allies like the alethiometrist who adores his hair, a well-read middle-schooler who's handy with a knife, and a young woman accidentally displaced out of space and time — facing down a gathering crisis which threatens to topple the entire Republic of Heaven.

    Summary

    'A life of pain is the pain of life, and you can never escape it, only hope it hides, unknown, in a drawer like a poisonous spider and never comes out again—even though it probably will, in unexpected and horrific fashion, scaring you from being able to comfortably conduct even the most mundane, quotidian tasks.' That’s what Cecil’s grandmother had always said to him, usually followed by a barrage of muttered insults in Apache.

    Summary

    It bothered him, all the little details about his life that didn’t add up. He would put it out of his mind and pretend that he was a real person whose death wasn’t written in an unknown language between the pages of a book buried deep in the sand wastes. Like his life wasn’t a tangled loop of death and living and nonexistence that was impossible to make sense of.
