Snake, rain, rabbit, 0-1900, 79, m, m, 115, the gate opens. The Prime Mover said it was an invitation. To what? Something The Grand Trivia Lizard wants an invite to, and that's a fact. Num num num.

Chapter 28 - Those Are Some Of My Favorite Parts Jan 14, 2026

Show notes

Having left the Inter State behind, the crew heads towards the Long Paws to reunite with Corson. C.A.S.H. has something she wants to show Mac on the Forest Sphere, something she hopes will undo some of the damage done by Bad Mother. Along the way she'll share a story about a strange creature, one whose existence on the Astral Plane up to this point has only fueled tales and rumors, one who may serve as the answer to what they're looking for.

When last we left the crew, they had just endured a session of flushing out their regrets. Tendy, regretting not giving Mac the time he deserves, is looking for an opportunity for them to spend more one on one time together. In this episode, they get that time, in a place they're not sure is even in time...any time. A place called the Inter State. Let's take a walk.
