Might as well post this stupid little ditty I made using Tim Curry’s zesty “SPACE!” quote as rhythm. m8communityjam.bandcamp.com/track/ssupayce Losing him was a punch in the gut. The man was delightful in everything, without fail. I’m only happy he understood how much he was loved.

Skepticism is healthy; just remember to accept good evidence when it’s right in front of you.
Moira and Meddie sit at a séance table, holding hands. The room is lit by a single candle in the middle of the table. She opens one eye and says, “Sorry, it’s just not working. I don’t think ghosts exist.” Then she looks across the table and says, “No offense, Heath.” Heath, a skeletal ghost boy wearing Victorian clothes, shrugs and says, “None taken - sometimes I’m not sure myself.” The fourth person at the table is a puzzled looking cat, who just says, “Mow.”

Still with the bullshit about trans people in sports? No one has a problem with trans people in sports unless they are transphobes. Not enough trans people are in sports for anyone to be talking about this. The ones who are have been scientifically proven to have no advantages. Shut up about it

Guess what it did this weekend!
Moira delightedly watches from an upper floor window as it snows outside. She exclaims, "It's snowing!" before running downstairs repeating with excitement, "It's snowing it's snowing it's snowing..." She skids out the front door, shouting, "It's sno-!" before a pile of snow falls off the porch roof, burying her.

Some people worry about the same thing for different - and still valid! - reasons.
As bats fly around just above them, Moira holds her long hair protectively and says, "I just worry they'll get my hair." Meddie, whose snake hair is all stretched upward trying to catch the bats, says, "I have the opposite problem."

The leaves have just started changing. Don't get carried away.
Moira walks along a wooded trail, smiling as a single autumn leaf floats past her. Suddenly a huge murmuration of leaves flies past her. It starts swirling around her, blocking her from view, and when it finally continues on, she's gone. Did they carry her off? Did she join them? Did she just step out for snickerdoodles and tea? Who knows?

Do nice things because it's the funnest work.
Moira starts digging dirt from an old, overgrown grave under the full moon. She digs, hauls dirt, and unrolls burlap, finally pausing to wipe sweat off her smudged forehead. She finally reveals the newly cleaned grave. It's surrounded by flowers and bushes as its occupant appears next to her. Glowing in the moon's light, the ghost woman is absolutely delighted at her grave's lovely makeover.

Portable barbershop.
Four shrunken heads gleefully sing a classic barbershop tune. Moira steps in, saying, "Okay, Milton, you're a little flat." One of the heads quips "Flat? I'm parched!" and another says, "Well no Gatorade for you - you'll balloon up like you did last time!"

"Haunted" is always up for interpretation. Hmmm...where have we seen that leaf-raking conversation before?
A news anchor sits in front of a graphic that features a photo of Moira's house above the caption, "Haunted house?" The anchor is in the middle of a throw to their field reporter. She says, "...the Borthwick House, which local legend says could be haunted. Gene Kemmeter is on site." The camera cuts to a blurry image of Moira in the distance raking leaves and arguing with a shadowy figure as Gene says, "Great timing Rachel, we're just getting what might be the first real video proof of..." The video clears up and the shadow is gone, leaving Moira in the distance gesturing angrily at nothing. Gene continues, "...a little girl raking leaves. Um. But she looks pretty angry." Back in the studio, the graphic is crossed out with a big Nope! written on it and Rachel sarcastically says, "Stunning report as always, Gene." Gene, still on a live microphone, mutters, "I hate you, Rachel."

Remember to check in on old friends. Side note, I did a dungeon-synth (ish) track called "The Ossuary" that you can listen to here: m8communityjam.bandcamp.com/album/m8-com...
Heath asks Moira where she's going, and she cheerfully tells him, "The ossuary!" He says, "Doesn't that place unnerve you?" She says, "No, why? I'm just gonna see what's up!" In the last panel, she enters a massive Ossuary, where the bones and remains of ancient monks decorate the walls and columns. Moira says, "Hey guys, what's up?" and ghostly voices answer, "It's Moira!" "Hello, Moira!" "What news?" "Just hanging around." and "Delightful to see you again, child!"

Even nightmares have nightmares.
Nightdoll floats in the air in her monster form, with glowing, plate-like yellow eyes, tentacled fangs and arms, crow's feet and a snake neck. A clown puppet pops up next to her and she recoils, the half of her body closest to the puppet turning back into her porcelain doll form. As the clown puppet's shadow looms, Nightdoll peeks out from behind a bookcase, in full doll form, terrified. Moira, with the clown puppet on her hand, says, "See? Nightdoll is scared of clowns." Next to her, Meddie confidently whispers, "She knows they don't exist, right?" The snakes in Meddie's hair look bored.

Rumour has it Death makes amazing snickerdoodles.
The figure of Death looms behind Moira as she rakes leaves, announcing, "Moira Moreau..." and startling her. Moira looks up at him, worried, and asks, "Is it... my time?" Death throws up his hands in a surrender motion and says, "What? No! No, I just swung by to catch up." Moira gestures wildly, saying, "Do you have any idea how unnerving that is?" and Death holds up a plate of cookies, saying "I brought snickerdoodles."

Sometimes bad jokes are the best jokes. Just not Gup's.
Gup, a snot-like green creature, hangs upside down from the ceiling next to Moira, who is busy writing a letter by candlelight. He says, "Hey Moira! Why did the witch's incantations always fail?" Moira does not have time for his jokes so she says, "Gup, I'm trying to write a let-" He interrupts her with the punchline, "Because she couldn't spell!" Moira looks put upon. In the last panel, Moira and her letter are gone, along with the candle. Gup, in the dark with a knot tied in his ropey body, says to himself, "Worth it."

Some days are objectively, ludicrously bad. Most days are pretty alright though.
Moira carries a towering stack of books through the hall and accidentally slips on a banana peel for some reason. The books fly straight up and each one hits her on the head as it falls (with the sound effect "BOOK!"). Then it starts pouring rain. Moira, fed up, shouts, "Oh come on, I'm inside!"

When you find the flavour for you, enjoy it at every opportunity.
Moira, cooking over a bubbling cauldron, adds a single drop of green liquid from a bottle with a skull on the label. She tastes her concoction as a green skull rises from the pot, then belches a jet of fire while the cauldron continues to bubble. Excitedly, she empties the entire skull bottle into the cauldron.

You never know until you try.
A zombie speaks in a pictogram of a brain. A hand reaches into the frame and shoves a spoonful of something in the zombie's mouth. The zombie pauses as a new revelation washes over it. In the last panel, Moira walks away from the zombie, proudly dusting off her hands, while the zombie delightedly looks down at the ice cream sundae she gave it. The pictogram it speaks is now an image of the sundae.

Glowering is a valid hobby.
Evil looking eyes glare in the darkness, looking over when they hear a creaking sound. With a sudden click, the lights come on, revealing the owner of the eyes is a very surprised and light-blinded grey cat sitting on a bookshelf. Moira, ready to put her book back, sees the cat frustratedly clutching its eyes and says, "Sorry, I didn't realize you were glowering in here."

Understanding other ways of life unlocks new potential for your own.
In front of the full moon, Moira asks the warewolf, "So you don't feel violent or anything?" He responds, "Nah, that's just a myth." Moira, perched on his shoulders, pokes his head and says, "But I've heard you howl at the moon!" He says, "Well yeah! It's great fun! You should try it sometime." Moira looks thoughtful. In the last panel the two of them sit on a cliff overlooking the countryside and a massive full moon as Moira lets loose a bellowing howl. After the howl, she says, "This rocks!" The warewolf, proud of her, says, "See?"

You don't have to hide who you are around true friends.
Moira is cleaning the hall carpet with a carpet sweeper, oblivious of a shadow looming in the foreground. She screams as she runs into a tall, thin man wearing a horribly cheap vinyl Evel Knievel Halloween costume from the 80s. From his point of view, we look down on Moira while she angrily says, "Mouth! Take that hideous thing off!" The tall man takes the mask off, revealing that his face is just a huge, open mouth. He says, "Sorry, Moira." Moira gestures indignantly at the floor, referencing the sound the carpet sweeper makes when she says, "Can't you see I'm huh-duh-duh-ing?"

Always save the brownies.
As Moira makes brownies, blood starts dripping from the ceiling. She looks up, startled at the increasing blood, before getting washed out of the kitchen on a wave of blood, holding the bowl of brownie batter above her head. She finally comes to rest in a blood-soaked hallway next to the bowl, shouting, "Who's cleaning up all this blood?!" Heath the ghost boy leans out of the wall with an optimistic take, saying, "You saved the brownies..."

A two-panel comic. In the first panel, Moira walks past a few creepy paintings on her way to open a door. In the second, her head pops angrily out of a massive pile of skulls that have spilled out of the door, burying her. She yells, "This is not how we clean!" The portraits are gaping and laughing.

Sometimes figuring out what's wrong is just a matter of listening through the noise.
A massive full moon is visible behind the treeline as a howl echoes through the forest. A warewolf rears up, still wearing the tatters of a flannel shirt. In the study, Moira helps the worried looking warewolf by removing an 8-post LEGO brick from the ball of his foot as he clutches his leg in pain. She says, "That's why you gotta pick up your LEGOs."

Everyone loves a good book. Or at least complaining about a bad one.
Moira takes a book titled "Horrifying Horror Stories" off the shelf. As she sits reading, shadowy root-like tendrils slither up the wall behind her. The room gets darker and the candle flame turns black as hideous eyes appear on the shadow looming behind Moira. She does not seem to have noticed, and keeps reading. Once the shadow has taken over the wall, it asks, "How's the book?" Moira says, "Kinda bland."

Games are more fun when everyone can play.
Moira bumps a volleyball, calling Meddie's name so she knows it's coming. Meddie, a young Medusa girl, bumps it to Heath, calling his name. Heath, a ghost boy who appears as a jawless skeleton wearing Victorian clothing, starts to call Moira, but the volleyball sails through him, bringing the game to a halt. Moira suggests they play a different game. Meddie shushes one of her snakes from laughing at Heath's misfortune.
