Now you’ve gone and done it, Oswald. You’ve made Tarball MAD!
Wait, the Sigil of Annihilation wasn’t enough? What is that tar baby made of?!
My guess? Either brain cancer, or the metaphysical manifestation of a parental figure verbally browbeating his(?) grown child into “Putting away childish things”, without the caveat that “The fear of being seen as childish” is ALSO a childish thing. Or to put it simply, either a terminal disease, or a “Real World” force grinding away his sense of whimsy and will to live.
Probably something along those lines. We are in the dreamworld after all. But whatever it is, it has taken root pretty well indeed…
