Midnight Pals: Gaslight (Patreon)

Rae Knowles: Submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society, I call this the tale of the missing violin Knowles: it's got murder, insanity Knowles: and Knowles: gaslighting but queer

Knowles: so there's this woman who meets this guy Knowles: and he's SO hot and dashing and omg he's just the best Knowles: so she marries him Angela Carter: oh that's always a mistake

Knowles: so they get married and then Knowles: they move into this woman's ancestral estate Knowles: and things start getting weird Knowles: like really weird Knowles: luckily she's got her vape Knowles: btw have you guys tried vaping? Knowles: this shit rules

Knowles: and she's all "i think i'm losing my mind!" Knowles: "better vape more, just in case" Knowles: and everyone is all "maybe don't vape so much" Knowles: and she's like "fuck you, you're not my mom!" Knowles: “gonna paint the zigzag man on the side of my house and everything”

Rae Knowles: is she losing her mind? or is her too perfect husband gaslighting her? Carter: it's the husband Knowles: ah but see- Carter: it's the husband Knowles: you seem awfully sure of that, angela Carter: i've been around the block Carter: i know men Carter: it's the husband

Knowles: now she's so gaslit that she's not sure of anything Knowles: except for this foxy they/them amateur crime detective who's been poking around for clues Knowles: don't worry, they know what they're doing Knowles: they've listened to A LOT of podcasts

Knowles:  everyone's all "stop vaping so much, it's making you paranoid" and  she's all "hmm idk i think there's actually a murder happening, ima  gonna keep vaping" Fitz James O'Brien: right on, right on O'Brien: see, i like a relatable protagonist

Fitz James O'Brien: see you know what O'Brien: i bet the problem is O'Brien: she's probably smoking sativa O'Brien: you gotta try indica Poe: yes yes fitz we all know O'Brien: man, you gotta remember O'Brien: never take more than you can handle and always know your dealer
