Welcome To The Dark Forest

Emo Ville

Pebblescar: Hello young tourists of our humble abode, welcome back to Welcome To The Dark Forest! Today, I have a new co-host, just for this episode, seeing as Stripefur's taking a well earned break in the Existential Crisis Hole! Please welcome... Missingfur!

Missingfur: Yes, indeed, I'm visiting this place for when I finally fire Velvetpaw

Pebblescar: Why would you need a tour of the Dark Forest?

Missingfur: Because she'll most likely go nuts without a purpose in life and murder a bunch of kits!

Pebblescar: ...right... Anyway! Today, we're off to visit a secret society of cats unknown to the other more active residents of The Dark Forest. A place shrouded in dark with eyeliner on all cats, music screaming down the ears of all those who enter, depressing, cringy poetry hung upon the walls and posters of band members lit by a candle shrine upon the greatest wall of them all... The Emo Wall

Missingfur: So, a bunch of teenagers refusing to join society rebelling against the universe?

Pebblescar: Oh definitely, makes for a riveting documentary. I call it: A Journey Into Emo Ville

Missingfur: And this is why you're the presenter and not the director, like me on my show I May Or May Not Have An Evil Plan airs every Saturday starting next week tune in on CloudtailTV to-

Pebblescar: You corporate piece of scum 

Missingfur: *cough* yes, ON TO THE LAND OF THE EMO

Missingfur and Pebblescar venture into the dark lands of Emo Ville. Immediately, the faint sound of My Chemical Romance can be heard in the distance, the sound of imminent moaning mingling with the appealing voice of Gerard Way. Candles are lit to light the way for passers by, only found upon posters of Josh Dun and Brendon Urie, while the residents scribble away at their next poetic masterpiece. Missingfur wipes away a tear, truly wonderful.

Pebblescar: We're going to be interviewing two residents of Emo Ville! Here's our first guest!

Dismalpaw: my name is dismalpaw, i identify as a gaping black abyss and i don't use capital letters because society uses capital letters and i am not a part of society. my favourite colour is black, my favourite music is sad and i don't like anything else

Missingfur: *laughing nervously* So Dismalpaw, what's uh, what's your favourite band?

Dismalpaw: my favourite band is green day because they rebel against society, but i wish they were called black day, green is a colour and society uses colours and i am not a part of society

Pebblescar: How do you feel about society?

Dismalpaw: disgusting pieces of scum with their colourful lives and lack of first world problems

Missingfur: Right, huh, we're gonna go to our next guest now, say hello to the No. 1 poetry writer in Emo Ville, Deathpaw!

Deathpaw: Darkness is pain... Blood in the rain... Everyone's so vain... I wish they'd stay in their own lane...

Pebblescar: So, Deathpaw, when did you discover your passion for poetry?

Deathpaw: I was looking outside... In the darkness I did confide... Suddenly I spied... A poetry book begging me to join in the ride...

Missingfur: Can you read us any of your best work?

Deathpaw: *clears throat* I am Darkness, I am in Pain, I am Suffering, I am Slain, I am Alone, I am Afraid, I am Dying, in my grave I laid, pondering existence, and what it all means, my mind is wandering, bursting at the seams, oh wonderful death, take me away, turn off the light and lead me astray, I am Darkness, I am in Pain, I am Suffering, I was Slain

Dismalpaw: *slow clapping* dark, i like it

Pebblescar: Okay... Missingfur! We're leaving!

Missingfur: Yes indeed let's go

They never set foot in Emo Ville again
