i love how the fears overlap!!! like, this is vast, but also buried and dark, but even still, there's just a hint of lonely and then there's the fuckoff massive eyeball
I hadn't thought of that... Up until today, I was simply disliking the change of logo (the last one was prettier). But now that I get it? I kind of like it. Thanks :D
Listening to Jon and Basira both sucking at small talk was fairly amusing. At least Basira seems like she's making a return to her old, more decent self
"NEED A RIDE?" Is the funniest fucking shit in the series Literally imagine going swimming through some giant ass lake or ocean and you just see the fucking anti-christ rowing towards you coming to help
I haven't listened to the rest of the series yet, so maybe Annabelle is helping Martin set up a surprise birthday party for Jon? That explains why she took the camera so he can't see the party decorations.
As a hardcore apeirophobe (and consequentially thalassophobe) I always check out mentally when it comes to The Vast... Not with this one. Nope. This one reminded me exactly what my ONE TRUE FEAR is. Fucking hell, Jonathan.
@@Catglittercrafts I get it, I'm freaked out by the same thing The idea that anything can come from any direction, and you'd have no warning. No wall to back up against to make sure there's nothing behind
@@TangledInYarn So, it's kind of like one of those fears that most people only notice when their in danger and feel the need to hide / put something against their back?
That statement had big "I'm severely depressed and desperately struggling to get better but it feels like there's nothing waiting for me on the other side of recovery and maybe I'd be better if I just stayed depressed and ended it all" energy and it's a mood
Lordy, love me some cosmic horror combo with the Vast and the Dark. The fears represented were basic, but deep (no pun intended) and I love the eldritch simplicity. What I like more than that though? We finally got the Basira we were waiting for, the one that is not judging and blaming Jon but is a badass ready to solve some problems by any means necessary. God I missed old Basira, and we are getting her back now.
*slaps this episode into the 'favorites' pile* despite all my tense apprehension for what awaits me in the last episodes, i loved this one. ive seriously enjoyed my time with this series and I'm sad to see it come to a close.
Honestly seeing Jon and Basira interacting again and actually like, getting along is pretty cool. Their dynamic is pretty fun when they are actually friends lmao
Finally, one that doesn’t creep me out. I actually really like this idk. I mean preferably I wouldn’t want to be stuck infinitely painfully drowning but hell, if I can’t die from drowning or pressure might as well go down. I love the deep sea. It just sounds so cool. + massive leviathans? That’s cool as hell. As long as they don’t eat you ig- Edit: I suppose it would be a person named Aether Skye to have their favorite be the Vast- albeit I don’t really like heights… or the sky all that much. Idek why it’s my username I just chose it a long time ago and it stuck sooo… but ay oceans are cool
I suppose we are the opposite because this one is the first one that really creeped me out. Some of the other ones were bad but they didn’t match up my fears so I wasn’t thinking about it too much. But this one seems like all of mine wrapped in a perfect package haha I think your username is nice btw and I think your liking for the ocean is an interesting thing (in a good way) :)
So I read one of the comments about the logo being the webs influence on the eye combined with the "Mr.Spider wants more" I am now properly scared and I hate it all
wait i might be completely misremembering but... why did Jon say that he hadn't told Melanie about Helen? I thought he did? i thought he had a conversation where she told him about her betrayal and how she tried to eat someone and they weren't friends anymore, and Jon told her about smiting her. am i completely misremembering or is Jon forgetting about some of the tunnel stuff?
Okay the last line was spooky and all but also I can't take it seriously because I just hate Mr spider so much as a being. like, Mr spider doesn't like it???? Mr spider doesn't eat flowers??? Okay and??? My mama raised me with a "eat what I give you or don't eat" mentality so if i can eat freaking broccoli every heaven-forsaken night she makes it with dinner mR SPIDER CAN EAT A CAKE FREAKING HELL MAN
"Mister spider wants more" gave me the worst case of idea what's going to happen next that I ever had through the whole show
Oml the foreshadowing is realllll AHHHHHHHHH 😂😂😭
and it just HAD to be the tape where he's talking about his own childhood trauma from a lightner book, like it's mocking him at the same type
I love how we can *hear* that Basira's barely breaking a sweat rowing while Jon was basically splashing around uselessly and making snail's progress
Skinny little Archivist man XD
The caster and the martial going on a little adventure
"And I killed Helen" HE SAID IT SO CASUALLY.
i love how the fears overlap!!! like, this is vast, but also buried and dark, but even still, there's just a hint of lonely
and then there's the fuckoff massive eyeball
And the Hunt
It's really interesting to have antithetical powers like The Buried and The Vast in one experience.
That's why they're like colors! Green and red are technically opposites, but they go well together.
"fuckoutg"* like fucking but *not*
It took me until this episode to see the new logo for what it is. The web influencing the eye. Did I forget to mention I love this podcast?
Is this foreshadowing something?
I just thought it was a broken tape! Thanks for cluing me in!
I hadn't thought of that... Up until today, I was simply disliking the change of logo (the last one was prettier). But now that I get it? I kind of like it. Thanks :D
when i heard the faint “mr spider wants more” at the end my heart STOPPED
Listening to Jon and Basira both sucking at small talk was fairly amusing. At least Basira seems like she's making a return to her old, more decent self
I don’t want this to end :( hearing Basira was a breathe of fresh air though ♡
Heh breath of fresh air. Fear of drowning. There's a joke in there somewhere
I can’t tell from this incomprehensible distance that leads the joke to be so small that it is unseeable
@@nekonyx Yah, somewhere in those vast, expansive, infinite deep dark waters. If you don't have a fear of drowning, you could find it! :D
/lh
THERE WAS A SPIDER ON MY CEILING DURING THIS EPISODE AND WHEN I LOOKED BACK UP AT IT AFTER THE "MR SPIDER WANTS MORE" LINE IT WAS G O N E
*Archivist voice:* "Statement of Princess of the Stars regarding a 'coincidental' encounter with a spider..."
...
"NEED A RIDE?"
Is the funniest fucking shit in the series
Literally imagine going swimming through some giant ass lake or ocean and you just see the fucking anti-christ rowing towards you coming to help
rain world fan spotted
@@FitKatanother rainworld fan spotted
:D rainworld!
" I wouldn't want to cramp your style"
I thought we established he has no style
That was a pretty wholesome chat between Jon and Basira.
It's nice to see them getting along again!
Rare since uh... halfway through season 2?
the episode: dark watery nightmare
me: just keep swimming! just keep swimming! just keep swimming swimming swimming 🎶 :D
What do we do? We swim swim :p

I've been there too. There really is something better out there.
Dude. My heart. I mean accurate. But don't do this to me. Not rn
audio horror doesn't generally do much fear-wise to but apparently my fear of deep water is just that good. thanks, rusty quill, i hate it.
Boy oh boy oh boy, we creep closer and closer to the finale! Good luck, you all will REALLY NEED IT for the big ‘ol chocolate torte.
In all of the 195 episodes of this horror podcast so far, nothing has given me more adrenaline than this bloody warning
@@io_online have fun!!!!! don’t forget the lighter.

Honestly. It took until this relisten for me to truly understand what people meant with s4 being just depression the season.
literally anything in this podcast: happens
me: this can't be good...
@Johnlemon NOOOOO THE ARCHIVIST IS A LEMON!!!!
*slaps this episode into the 'favorites' pile*
despite all my tense apprehension for what awaits me in the last episodes, i loved this one.
ive seriously enjoyed my time with this series and I'm sad to see it come to a close.
19:20 the hunt meaning, a porpose - which is a source of fear on its own.
those damn dolphins...
@@NoConsequenc3 🤣 hahah
It’s always the dolphins
BASIRA IS BACK! :D
I don't like that the Mr. Spider tape was there waiting for Jon.
Really love this series
Honestly seeing Jon and Basira interacting again and actually like, getting along is pretty cool. Their dynamic is pretty fun when they are actually friends lmao
You can attack Basira on many things but you have to admit this woman is e-ffi-cient
You know... the tapes didnt cut to martin at all... I wonder why 0-0
for the * drama *
Is it? :3
@@alphalilly8207 I think know "why" now, but I still think it's for the * drama * because it makes us anxious and wanting to know how the Boi is doing
Wait the [SPOILERS]
tape at the end was Jon’s own statement about the Mr Spider Leitner book right?
Yes, it was🕷️🕸️
Wow the late Season 5 episodes really are something
Welp this is the domain I'd be put in and I hate it.
Finally, one that doesn’t creep me out. I actually really like this idk.

I think your username is nice btw and I think your liking for the ocean is an interesting thing (in a good way)
:)
It's kinda lovely that the Vast depths of the open ocean are represented here so well.
And next week is going to be SUPER interesting. Which is good, since we'll be in the last month of the series at that point.
This was interesting. I dream about water and the ocean a lot. This didnt really spook me. But was pretty cool anyway XD
So I read one of the comments about the logo being the webs influence on the eye combined with the "Mr.Spider wants more" I am now properly scared and I hate it all
Hi Alex!
Heyy Alex!
This entire episode I just imagined they were in a car floating around the ocean, also yipeee old basira is back
Lol Thalassaphobia manifests as irl subnautica
Mr Spider wants more.
Wait.

the "mister spider wants more" is really cool foreshadowing!!!!! aaaaa i love this podcast :]

Martin was the one in the convo, pretty sure. It's where the "anti-christ plus one" line came from
@@104snowstorm ohh okay that makes sense
I’ve been drowning forever.
That is a mood.
imminent ending of good tragic story should be it's own Fear
i can't take it anymore........
GRRMophobia? xD Seriously though, I feel that fear!
Okay the last line was spooky and all but also I can't take it seriously because I just hate Mr spider so much as a being. like, Mr spider doesn't like it???? Mr spider doesn't eat flowers???

If Mister Spider doesn't like what you bring, Mr. Spider simply eats the giver instead.
@@OctopusOwl Well, now I'm slightly worried about Basira. And I hate her.
So… planet 4546B?
[BESIRA]- "you look like crap"
[ARCHIVIST] -"thanks"
Okayyy first domain statement that made want to throw up and cry.... wow
He already told Melanie!
Apparently that was Martin in the conversation.
Dang, another hitting close to home statement hh
Ngl the first moment of the statement reminded me of Deepnest in Hollow Knight xD
im glad basiras doing better
Who else took a deep breath at 2:56?
AND WHY ARE THEY GOING TO HILLTOP ROAD?!!!
I noticed the talking but I couldn't really make it out, then I hear "Mister Spider wants more" in Jon's voice and I'm like "OH SHIT"
Why do i have thalasophobia😖
“Well, not quite nothing. Not for me.” 😭
20:56 am i tripping or did martin not tell Melanie about Helen?? And she was fine with it more than fine actually
I do not like that last sentence, Sam I Am
BASIRA
The vast again?
