Summary: Catch-all log for The Good Place event!
The Story:

Welcome to the Good Place! Your character, tragically, has died in their world. They might not remember how (or maybe they do!) but it’s okay either way because conveniently they have earned enough points to go to the Good Place when they die! They’ve earned a house that they have been told is perfectly suited to them (it is probably not, but who are they to question the universe?!) in an absolutely delightful and quaint little Neighborhood with a frozen yogurt shop on every block. It’s almost irritatingly perfect!

Most importantly though, someone will be living with your character. Someone very, very special - their soulmate, hand-picked from the billions on Earth! Sure, it may not be who (or even what) they expected, but this is what they’ve earned from the good life they’ve lived in your world. They deserve this! They really, truly do.

Everyone is welcome to add details to what exactly is in the Neighborhood - everyone has different standards for what constitutes an "objectively good but still mediocre" neighborhood experience, after all!

Need more information, or maybe a soulmate? Head on over to the plot post! Prose or [Action Brackets] are both welcome!

R sincerely has difficulty in imagining this guy actually being happy. He doesn't really give off the 'happy' kind of vibe. He reminds R of somebody... but damn, he can't really remember who it is. A friend, he thinks.

"Hell," the young man murmurs in echo, as if trying the word out. It's funny that they can actually get that one out, not that R was ever really much for cursing to begin with.

"It's a nice idea of hell."

Gren was absolutely not one for general happiness. Even Bigby thought something was drastically wrong with him while he stumbled around the Trip Trap on his painkiller high. What was forking rude, in Gren's estimation. Did the Wolf kill him? That tracks.

"Sure, because they want us forking comfy before they make things worse for us. It's all to lull us into a false sense of forkin' security."

It's a strange one for R, because now he's struggling to remember how he died and he's coming up all blanks. He moves closer to this man - a man who seems more familiar the more they speak - and sits down.

"But why do that? That doesn't sound like any kind of hell I've ever heard of."

"It's supposed to be torture, right? It's supposed to fork with us, that's the whole point," he glances around. "What better way to do that than to make us think we're in The Good Place when we're actually not? Makes sense to me."

It's some insane bullshirt, to be sure, but he wouldn't put it past them. This is the same bullshirt that the Crooked Man pulled. Making people think they were safe and cared for when it was just him and the Tweedles-

The Tweedles.

He cants his head, stares at R some more the kid is so familiar why does he knows this kid? Why do the Tweedles matter all of a sudden? He doesn't even like the Tweedles. Then he stares around him. A rather large penny drops. Oh. Oh fork.

"God forkin' dammnit. This is forkin' Wonderland."
