the fears giving a new avatar their eldritch horror orientation
for all those who pointed out the underrated legends:
[ID: Several screenshots from a scene in The Good Place with edited captions. In the scene, Michael and Eleanor sit in an office and talk. With the edited captions, the conversation goes:
Michael: Everyone who has encountered an entity has suffered horrifically. Except for Joshua Gillespie, of course.
Eleanor: Who’s Joshua Gillespie?
Michael: He used critical thinking and a supernatural ability to mind his own business to avoid being trapped in the Buried.
Michael points to a framed photo on the wall of a white man wearing a dazed look, and says, “That’s him right there.” The screen zooms in to the photo so the nameplate beneath reads “Joshua Gillespie.” Michael adds, “He’s pretty famous around here.”In the reblog, the same screenshots are repeated in different order with new dialogue.
Eleanor: Who are the other people?
Michael, pointing: That’s Karolina Gorka. She wasn’t scared, she just laid down and accepted death.
The portrait now has long hair drawn on it and an updated nameplate.
Michael: It’s not fun if they’re not scared.
Michael, pointing again: And that’s Sebastian Skinner.
The portrait now has a mustache and a new nameplate.
Michael: His powers of oblivion were too great./end ID]
