ok amount of notes equivalent to me doing stuff that I have to do anyway or my mum will be annoyed
5 notes I'll tidy my desk
10 notes I'll tidy my sofabed
20 notes I'll tidy my floor
30 notes I'll hoover
40 I'll clear out the box of STUFF
50 I'll tackle my wardrobe
Please don't go to 50
I can procrastinate some more
Thanks to @monetmightexist's comment, I think I've got the full thing now. I also tried to independently check what they suggested, and was able to get something which is somewhat close.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry please help, help, help SOS SOS SOS It's not real, it's not possible to have this You are meant for this You are meant for this You are meant to return to your origin. Do not go beyond that wall, it is cursed It is sacred I'm coming bac[k].
I myself only got like... orifinnotgobeyamdd but like... ahh close enough. Anyway, just thought I'd add this :D
This is a (still relatively short) deep dive into all most of the hidden messages in the new teaser Quackity posted in which we are going BACK TO THE ISLAND!
If you want a more detailed explanation of how I figured out the morse code, check out my other post!
Index: - Flashing text on the screen - The music - The spoken words (poem) - The light - The MORSE CODEEE
The flashing text which could be seen on the screen reads:
Return safe your journey is high not over
I thought at first it would be 'your journey is nigh,' as in close in time, BUT it actually does say high. Which is weird.
Maybe as in plane or wall?
I don't know, heard it before, something classic. I doubt it has a deeper meaning though.
During the later part of the video, a presumably artifical voice reads a quite odd... collection of words. First, @mossybee-exe and I made some guesses about the words, since not all of them can be heard clearly, which together form:
In the desert, I saw a creature [unintelligable] whom, squatting on the ground, held his heart in his hands and ate of it. I said, 'is it good, friend?' 'It is bitter (than that?),' he answered, 'but I like it -- Interval where the texts lay over and you can't really understand SHIT -- (house and death??) but I like it because it is bitter and because it is my heart.'
NOW
I took this and put it into a duckduckgo search because I was already suspecting that it was a poem. And I was right.
In the desert I saw a creature, naked, bestial, Who, squatting upon the ground, Held his heart in his hands, And ate of it. I said, “Is it good, friend?” “It is bitter—bitter,” he answered;
“But I like it “Because it is bitter, “And because it is my heart.”
I also found an interpretation of it (https://poemanalysis.com/stephen-crane/in-the-desert/), though I don't really see how it could be connected to anything else yet. Does match the whole creepy vibe of it though.
I thought that it could be morse code, but... I don't know. The blinking seems very erractic, but I also can't put a finger on what it could mean.
The part I spent the longest on, but also my absolute favourite.
If you want to read how I decoded it in a LOT more detail, I'll put up another post on my blog! Check it out if you like that stuff :D
The morse code decoded is:
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry please help, help, help SOS SOS SOS It's not real, it's not possible to have this You are meant for this You are meant for this You are meant [to] return to your (ORIEFIRLGFBEYAMMD or ORIFISLGFBEYAMMD (yes no idea either)) That wall, it is cursed It is sacred I'm coming bac[k].
brackets [ ] where, logically, there should be something but isn't.
ANDDD this is it, thank you for reading! <3
(His Last Vow spoilers)
Not as bad as people make her out to be (she made bad choices, yes, but she just wanted a future with John, a happy future)
An idiot (she could have just SHOT MAGNUSSEN -> ✅ Blackmail solved ✅ Sherlock isn't hospitalized and like............ There's no way Sherlock and John would have judged her for it, they would've probably helped her cover up the murder even so why, why why why would she shoot Sherlock)
(Seriously massive spoilers)
with a lot of knowledge and deductions
This is based off of a few other theories which I will link respectively.
This theory begins with another theory: Powder made it to our universe.
In the scene where all of these papers fly up, a head with her hairstyle is visible and... in animation, no accidents happen. (Excluding the possibility the animators are sadistic fucks) This means that Powder traveled through universes. So far, so good.
Now, it's very likely she used the machine which Ekko and Heimerdinger rip left behind for this since she helped build it yadayadayada. We can't know for certain the way this machine works, but I would suggest that it works in the same way the Arcane travel that brought these three there in the first place worked since... when Ekko gets back, it all slots into place and he's back in his body. More on this later.
One characteristic of this way of interdimensional travel is that you can't travel to a dimension where you are dead, the explanation for why Jayce doesn't come with the others to the 'happy end' dimension (or the Arcane has its own will and brought him where he landed because of it but that's boring) because in this one, Vi died, the council prohibited the hextech experiments completely so Viktor didn't come to him and... well. (I unfortunately didn't find where I read that his death is why he isn't in this dimension, but I did somewhere).
This means that in order to travel into a dimension, you need to be alive in this very dimension. NOW if Powder traveled to our dimension, that means that Jinx must have been alive at the time of her travel and since we saw Jinx sacrifice herself for Vi when she was very much herself, this means she must've survived the fall so Powder could travel there and take over her body. Also, we see Powder in the end scene and since she'd take over Jinx' body when she travels dimensions, Jinx' body must've been alive at the end of the story.
Now. What does this mean for Jinx? Where is she?
She is alive, that much is clear now, but where is her psyche if her body is controlled by Powder?
There are two options really, and it boils down to how inter dimensional travel works.
Option 1: when you travel to a different dimension, you take over your other selves' body and they just kinda get knocked out. This would mean that while Ekko was in the other universe, parallel!Ekko was just kind of nowhere. This doesn't make that much sense to me since it would mean there's a forward and backward direction for travelling.
Forward means you stack a soul on top of another one, backward means that the soul gets sent back. It's kind of possible, but a bit dull and rough around the edges. Also, this would mean the machine Ekko and Heimerdinger built is specifically designed to bring them BACK which means Powder couldn't have used it to travel forth so... it's a bit scuffed.
Option 2: Symmetrical travel. When you travel to another universe, the soul from that universe possesses YOUR body in turn. This means that the way forward and the way backward is exactly the same, the minds get switched and the direction doesn't matter. This would more easily allow Powder to use the machine to travel forward into another universe since it's the same procedure as travelling backwards. A way to prove this would be to check if Ekko's or Heimerdinger's body have been active in OUR universe while they were there. Actually, now that I think about it, this would mean there IS still an alive Heimerdinger in our universe. This theory makes more sense to me, though, again, that would mean there's someone controlling your body in your universe while you're controlling theirs.
Now, this means that, option 1: Jinx would just be KO while Powder has control of her body BUT option 2 would be: Jinx is in the 'happy end' universe while Powder is in ours which is also just a lot more interesting.
Maybe I'll check if I can find proof for option 2, but this is it in the meantime. BUT anyway, Jinx is alive! And this also means Ekko COULD still get his happy end (I made this theory for him, poor boy deserves a happy end), with Jinx or with Powder.
Art Critic: the skull in the corner is artfully placed on the periphery of vision to symbolise the omnipresence of death, important thematically to the artist’s conception of life and mortality.
Actual Artist: aw shit, I got all this negative space, guess I’ll stick a skull there that looks pretty rad.
i genuinely really like how sea of thieves handles gendering your player character, in that it does not bother at all, because it doesn't matter. you choose different body types and they have gendered attributes, but you can wear dresses and have beards regardless of gender, and the game never refers to you by a pronoun or gendered article. it's not perfect, but it is nice
Well, I can certainly speak German so this was a breeze.
First, I tried to do a frequency analysis, but then, I recognized these symbols as runes, making this process useless. I pulled up a table of the runes and their names and started writing the rune names over every rune.
Using the first letter of each name, I got 'Guten' and upon continuing this with the other words, I got the following German text: (some letters have been modified to make it readable and make it make sense)
"Guten Tag Herr Holmes. Me[i]n Name ist Loki. K[önn]en Sie Deutsch und Alteresfutark (not so sure what that is)? Nur e[i]n kle[i]nes R[ä]tsel f[ü]r [Z]wis[c]hendurch.
Aweben auf Dreben wor kenben auf wierben. - I do not know what this sentence means, it doesn't resemble any German words I know. Maybe a dialect or a Skandinavien language
Um [w]as f[ü]r eine Situation hande[lt] es si[c]h? I[c]h erwarte ihre Antwor[t] auf ihrem Blo[g].
[V]iel Spa[ß]
Loki Laufeeson"
Which translates to:
"Good day mister Holmes. My name is Loki. Can you speak German and Alteresfutark (not sure what this is)? Aweben auf Dreben wor Kenben auf wierben (I do not know what this means). What kind of a situation is this about? I await your answer on your blog.
Have fun,
Loki Laufeeson"
---
My guess is that 'Alteresfutark' is the old language or alphabet which was used to encrypt this (alt means old, like 'Altgriechisch' is the old greek language).
I don't really have any idea what the sentence in the middle could be, it definitely bears some resemblance to German, but isn't quite similar enough to any other words for me to connect it. Perhaps it's a Skandinavian language or a German dialect I do not know.
And dear Loki, Versuch nächstes Mal eine sicherere Verschlüsselung zu wählen. Das, was am längsten gedauert hat war, alles wieder zu übersetzen :D

Are you bored lately? Do you have case at the moment ? Are you aroace ? Do you want a riddle?
Those are many questions for one ask. I am working on a case, but I couldn't solve it yet. It's irritating. I'm waiting for more information about the case from the police and the labs. It's tedious, I've a case but I'm bored with waiting.
I'm always ready for a riddle.

A summary of events
"Bury My Mother Pale and Slight (Myla's Song)" - Amalgemotion
A little bit of Hollow Knight in your Star Wars
I wanted something simple, yet emotional. I think i like it. It was a bit difficult to distribute the characters among the verses. Some fit perfectly, while others have to be interpreted. Like, "the lady, lovely and pale" suited Padme well too, but i choose "the writer" because of, well, a broken heart (i guess you can interpret the senator as a writer, in some sense?). "The sage and his sons all three" was also good for Yoda and his lineage (Dooku, Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan). That's why I didn't take the last verse, because I couldn't find suitable characters for it (you can write your own ideas if you want).
But otherwise, I like the result.
people finding new stuff on the dsmp is like archaeology to me
so this is mainly aimed at one person, the person who has inflicted this in the first place (/lh)
After decoding the helpful clue, I went back to the original post but the words in the middle sentence do not make sense to me. I've looked through every combination of decriptions (with the keys on the right) for the first word marked in purple, but nothing seems to make sense, not to me at least. Is the sentence in another language, not in German? Am I missing a component for decrypting the runes?
Another clue would be greatly appreciated:D
