Till Alecto free the dead From their eternal bands; Till the snakes drop from her head, And whip from out her hands. Come away, Do not stay, But obey, While we play, For hell's broke up, and ghosts have holiday.
was anyone going to tell me about this text from john dryden and nathaniel lee's oedipus: a tragedy or was i just supposed to stumble upon it in the wild myself? anyway. locked tomb vibes, much?

Have you ever had a dream so bad that it ripped a sacred tree in half?
At least I think that’s what’s happening here. 
It um... doesn’t bode WELL for the Sakura-named-people resting in the Sakura-named-tree that has now been sliced in half due to Syaoran on Syaoran combat, that’s for sure.
At the very least her protective bubble has popped now that Lava Lamp is out of action, so that’s a bit of a small win/ huge loss situation.
Though on the plus side please enjoy the split screen reactions of Fai and Kurogane kind of also working as a single unit now that they’re united and open with each other. Here they both look in surprise, turning in opposite directions to face inwards at the same thing, each one with only one eye visible and the other shaded in darkness. With both of them together they present a complete pair of eyes, but a drastically different type of unity when contrasted against the Syaorans. But they COULD have been the same; Fai and Kurogane COULD have ripped each other apart the way their entire lives intended them to. But instead they chose each other, and now they’re a united pair. It’s a very nice parallel of imagery.

EXTENSIVE LIST OF DECENT TMA EPISODES
across the street. spooky story about what if you saw your neighbor getting changeling'd. the witness being a semi-stalker so she can't tell Anyone and only knows the victim well enough to know he's gone is a nice twist
do not open. not at all spooky story about a guy who gets given a weird coffin marked "dont open" that keeps trying to hypnotize him to open it and making weird sounds but he just fucking. freezes the key in a block of ice/wears noiseproof headphones and manages not to open it until it gets taken away by mystery delivery drivers. he just gets out of it completely scot free with some cash
a father's love. spooky story about what if your dad was a serial killer. accurate to have the serial killer dad be a cop. i'm so glad this was a standalone story and did not get some stupid lore expansion that tried to rehabilitate the Serial Killer Cop Dad
vampire killer. not at all spooky story about a homeless guy whos a fucking sick awesome vampire hunter and theyre like gross mosquito hypnosis vampires. the sequel children of the night is almost scary but then he kills the vampire for the first time and she explodes like a mosquito. the lore expansion where he saves the serial killer's daughter from her job at the demon church and they become roadtrip besties killing monsters overseas rules actually
anatomy class. perhaps the funniest horror story i have ever read. what if you were trying to teach an entry level anatomy class to a bunch of kids in the same white shirt and blue jeans with different cultural placeholder names but they were actually like. meat creatures who were taking the class to learn how to be shaped like people. theres a scene where the teacher is explaining how hearts beat and all of them hold up the animal heart theyre dissecting and they start beating in different rhythms and theyre like "which one is right?" and at the end of the semester they give him an apple filled with human teeth shaped like a smile and a nice note thanking him for teaching them good :). absolutely killer 4-koma comedy horror manga idea
binary. not at all scary. starts with the protagonist telling you shes a Real hacker and the horror stories about the dark web are STUPID. proceeds to be the dumbest fucking story youve ever read about an evil video of a guy eating a computer to put his brain in it and becoming a tortured chatbot.
book of the dead. spooky story about what if there was a book which as soon as you read it wrote an extremely brutal death for you to happen very soon, and every time you try to avoid your fate your death changes to be closer and more painful. i should probably not have listened to this as a kid with untreated OCD.
body builder. not at all scary story about a guy who goes to a gym but they let you get silly with it. they let you get four legs and no head and stitch a smiley face into your chest.
that's it!

AH
OH 
D I S T R E S S
On the one hand I want to pause and be like, hey look, the lighting effects here make it look like Syaoran’s eyes are depicted PURE white and black here. Perfect symbolism. Such a nice touch. 
Meanwhile the other 90% of my brain is just SCREAMING ALARM BELLS SIRENS 
IT’S THE STAB
HERE COMES THE STAB
THE STAB IS BEING DELIVERED
IT’S LIKE A 50/50 CHANCE ON WHAT HAPPENS NEXT 
AS LONG AS I DON’T TURN THE PAGE IT COULD BE ANYTHING
