Battered Senseless by the Grim Continuum of the Artistic Life, the Analyst trips and falls, his lenses break against the concrete beneath his feet – November 2021
As you’ve come to expect – La Musica: Ulrich Schnauss was one of my biggest musical influences going through college. I love this fellow’s music. Despite his signature style as immediately recognizable, he also owns a shocking breadth of tonal flavor. This is one of my favorites of his, from one of his best albums. […]
Dancing in the Austere Light of the Moon, One Analyst Ponders the Struggles of Art Amidst a Wildscape of Ravenous Beauty and Rustic Splendor – it’s October.
*Inhales* Ahhhh! That Autumnal air strikes deep in the marrow, doesn’t it? It’s a great season to do just about anything you want, but we as creatures of habit are so akin to focusing on the selfish misery of our habitual life. Do not simply stop and smell the roses, run away, jump in a […]
The Hardcore Holidayoff AKA: All All’s Eve
The Hardcore Holidayoff (AKA All All’s Eve) Kell Inkston I For Magic Minion, it’s a witch hat kind of evening. She could feel it days ago, shifting their way over in Woods Tower. The oak and maple, the spruce and the fir each sang their song separately, some began to turn, and others just began […]
Cauterized to the bone and word of it all, a forlorn analyst forces through regular bouts of mania and an unwitting public to create the barest elements of his greatest work – The 2021 September Update
To key us in, it’s time for some characteristically-smooth Soichi Terada: Mr. Terada hasn’t released much since the pandemic, but it’s nice to have some of his older stuff to return to as the internet so aptly enables us to. It’s sort of humorous that he’s best known for doing the sound track for the […]

The Observation
An highly-contested historical event for both the upper and lower realms, arguably the first of its kind. “The Observation” is said to have taken place on Extraverse Calendar Moment [REDACTED], in which, presumably, Rondi’s Indigo Knight, Xingah, revealed his face to The Speaker of Subara: Corps Commander Lono Katorashi and many high officials of the […]

Dirty, Rotten Thievery! -Part 7: Finale-
“Now, isn’t this wonderful?” Chaos asks with an old-fashioned pat on the lap. Order finds herself in Country Tower of all places: the cute retro farm-style decorum lending an unbelievable departure from Chaos’ usual taste in decorating with the skulls of fallen overlords. She takes a seat at the quaint breakfast table as several minions […]
