    Summary

    After listening to Cecil play the Cassettes on the air, Carlos goes to Cecil's prepared to talk about what happened, give him a shoulder to cry on, and use science to investigate whether reality matches Cecil's memories or those recordings. Cecil prefers to refuse to acknowledge that anything happened and drink to forget. Carlos does his best to take care of him anyway (though the only way a stubbornly drunk Cecil will allow himself to be taken care of is to convince him that he's actually the one taking care of Carlos.)

    ETA: Second chapter involves Carlos calling Cecil's sister to ask for advice/information.

    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

    "The colloquial name is bloodstone," says the man from StrexCorp's Acquisitions division. "Heard of them?"

    Carlos shakes his head. "No, but I'm not a minerologist. Are you certain this wasn't intended for the geology department?"

    ~

    Carlos is a loyal company employee, who has never been to any place called Night Vale and never met anyone named Cecil…which doesn’t explain the mysterious woman appearing in his lab, or these dreams he’s started having…
