Opening sequence for Spookality 2025

Strasz 4:23 AM: Hey man, I know it’s late but I saw you on Slack. I’m guessing you saw it? Tupper 4:27 AM: Why’d you wake me up? It’s the third time… Strasz 4:28 AM: I know. I’ve received, like… a hundred messages? More, maybe? Discord broke, it’s just showing me random numbers and question marks. Tupper 4:30 AM: Me too. Everything’s up, though? I can just go back to sleep. I don’t know why you’re worried. Strasz 4:31 AM: Yeah, things are working, it’s just that, like, they’re all in there. Tupper 4:34 AM: All of them, yeah. It’s probably just a bug. Strasz 4:36 AM: Every other world is empty, just like last night. Literally zero people. Tupper 4:40 AM: I’m there too. Strasz 4:41 AM: Huh, didn’t you just get up? Tupper 4:41 AM: I’m there too. Strasz 4:42 AM: Where? Tupper 4:42 AM: I’m there too. Strasz 4:43 AM: Are you lagging or something? What’s going on? Tupper 4:50 AM: I’m there too. Tupper 4:55 AM: I’m there too. Strasz 4:56 AM: okay seriously what’s going on? Tupper 5:01 AM: I’m there too. Tupper 5:23 AM: I’m there too. Tupper 5:50 AM: I’m there too. Tupper 6:01 AM: I’m there too. Tupper 6:21 AM: I’m there too. Tupper 6:50 AM: I’m there too. Tupper 7:01 AM: I’m there too. Tupper 7:02 AM: I’m there too.
