Khoshekh the loveable Night Vale Community Radio cat, he’s very cute, has his adult kitty spine spikes and floats about four feet off the ground in the studio bathroom, right beside the sink!
No photography please! We don’t know the full consequences of what will happen to you, this is your final warning!
my favorite thing about cecil gershwin palmer is that he rapidly switches between spouting the most profound poetry you’ve ever heard and being a petty dumbass who has never had a Thought™ before. He has one brain cell and it is devoted to existential angst.
"Why is Cecil a sexyman he doesn't even have a visual appearance" wym he doesn't have a visual appearance?? That's like saying Goncharov isn't a real movie smh. He is the sexiest
I told the creators of Welcome to Night Vale about the sexyman poll.
im taking a narrative podcast production course, and we had joseph fink and jeffery cranor come speak to the class over zoom
as the final question of our Very Serious QA panel, i told them about the tumblr sexyman poll, with hundreds of thousands of votes, and that cecil still won a decade later. i asked if the power of creating The Sexiest Fictional Man was something that could go to their heads. they couldnt stop laughing.
joseph gave a long spiel about how grateful he is for the impact Night Vale had — he told a story about seeing a fictional flights board in an airport and that it felt so strange to see Night Vale up there. he was super humble and said that Night Vale ‘belongs to the fans’ and takes no ownership of Sexy Creationism.
then jeffery comes in like ‘yeah, what he said, but personally i think it does go to my head’ and giggled and said “It feels pretty awesome.”
idk…thinkin about how Cecil is doomed to forever observe a town in peril, unable to step in, to help. Thinking about how despite the fact that he’s forced to bear witness to all that suffering, he still can’t know anything about his past, his family, his childhood. About how the name “Cecil” means “blind”, and that is both a curse and an unfulfilled promise.
