i h a t e h a t e h a t e to do this. but we've reached a t i p p i n g point. i can't s t a n d to stay silent.
and i think or at least h o p e some of you a n g e l s are voting for will without understanding the g r a v i t y of what he did. š
i have r e c e i p t s though.
will is dangerous, unstable, unruly, and m e a n .
he is a t h r e a t to me, to you, and to our b e a u t i f u l p r i s t i n e f r a g i l e h e a v e n.
y o u have the power to make him leave peacefully.
don't let him l i e any longer.

@williamy3w Hi, Henry. This is the recording we asked if you wanted to see. We donāt have the actual audio from the recording, but we have the transcript:
Evidence File #81
Date of Admission: 8/23/1986
Evidence ID:Ā 27.55555
Transcription Follows
YOUNG M. VOICE: uh. hi. um. my nameās henry bicknell, hb for short- itās, um, well it was a sunny day today but now itās night in the radio station. 1986. thereās some dogs outside, dunno if you can hear them. try to get a clear recording for ya if they donāt get too loud.Ā
yeah, uh, no way this is going in there, but will told me to record everything, so iām going to record everything. but i got a theory that thatās because everything you donāt record kind of⦠disappears. i tried to ask will if i could transmit a photo of andrew mccarthy and then iād look like him in there but he says it doesnāt work that way. bummer!Ā
if i donāt, i think iāll just destroy it. or leave it near my car. i dunno, i like thinking about it existing somewhere. just in case.Ā
um, so, the reason we moved out of missoula- this year, in the spring, we moved and i remember⦠that it was still snowing when we pulled into the driveway of our place in chicago, and i thought we had bought the whole apartment building for a second. pretty disappointing, haha! but i really like it here. i think. i mean, i met will here, so itās a nice place.Ā
but yeah the reason we moved out of missoula -- and i donāt mean to insult chicago by trying to leave it, and will says i can come back and listen to the radio here anytime i want. itās lonely here but then again itās lonely for me everywhere. i make a lot of friends but i can never get them to⦠stick. and they stay, i mean, people like me, butā¦
the reason we moved out of missoula is -ā the thing is, even if iāve got tons of friends, even if iām surrounded by them, i always feel a little bit like iām faking it. iāll be laughing and talking and then iāll be watching myself laughing and talking, and going, oh, boy, they liked that one, theyāll like me a little longer before i get found out. dunno what theyāre gonna find out. i never stick around to see.Ā
because, like, we had to leave missoula, because, and i totally understand⦠okay, like, nothing was wrong, was the problem. it was, what, sophomore year? i didnāt have any college applications to worry about, i was doing really well on the track team, i had some friends. but every day it felt like something was hollow. like, i dunno, the colors in the world werenāt as bright as they were before. like when i heard music it was through a film. i love making tunes, i love making friends, i love finding new forgotten places in the city. like the radio station here! h3vn 33.3- boy, is that a spooky story!
but um. yeah, i really like those things. i know i like them. but i just⦠stopped doing them for a little while. like iād lie on my bed and know iād love to be up making a new tune. iād hear it in my head. like this!Ā
ā
MUSIC: [A short jingle]
ā
YOUNG M. VOICE: but i just couldnāt bring myself to move one muscle over to the theremin and write it. iād watch the light on my ceiling come up and go out and come up again. i could go to school more or less, but it was like whenever i was alone iād just stand there, like a doll someone had stopped playing with. it took all my energy just to smile at someone.
so i guess the reason we had to leave missoula is that i kind of fell off a bridge. into water! deep water, like i bet i knew i wasnāt going to really- you know, but you do something like that and then everybodyās got a fucking opinion. i couldnāt really go to school. people talked about me. it was bad. i donāt remember too much about the time around it, just my dad kind of asking me when i felt like i could go back again and me saying whenever but not being able to move at all.Ā
i guess eventually someone gave me a potted sunflower. i think it was my mom? i uh, stopped seeing faces for a while, just like, didnāt care enough to look. but i bet it was my mom.Ā
so i donāt know why i really did it. i was watching it get all shrively and start to die over there on the other side of the room. and i knew i was the last thing standing between it and dying early. and just -- suddenly, i could move. i could water it. and then a week later there was a new little green leaf on it and i just⦠well, now i was responsible for this stupid little plant. i had to go outside to put it in the sunshine. and then i planted more. and then more. i grew a whole garden there. started making music. started going outside. and my dad finally felt like maybe we should move, get a fresh start in a new place.
iām ok now. mostly ok. i find things to do with my time. but i havenāt been able to bring myself to make friends here, really. or, like, i feel myself running away from them again. and itās because⦠like⦠everything is kind of a little fucking sunflower, right? like a friend. a life. itās all for someone else. i feel like everyone else has some kind of power that i donāt- some secret, authentic way to make their own happiness. and until then what happens when the sunflower isnāt enough- when just, iām not a good enough person, not selfless enough to make its existence my reason for existing⦠what happens? what happens to it then? Ā
so you see how i gotta put this here. i gotta leave this kind of thing outside. i really like will. like, really like him. i want this to be perfect. but i still canāt tell if heās another fucking sunflower. i donāt think so. this feels different from everything else iāve felt before. like my chest is all warm just from thinking about him. like i want to live forever just to be with him. but i donāt want any of this memory getting in there and making things⦠less than perfect.Ā
maybe iāll plant it in the ground. or put it somewhere nice. somewhere with sky.Ā
hello hello!! just wanted to say good luck on your standoff!! you two are so sweet
just gonna leave this here (it's cherry pie!!)

Yes, Mal visited discord once. She ended up dropping pieces badly and it left damage afterwards even when she returned to her website. It just worries me. I'd honestly love to see you guys working together and maybe helping each other more than see you bicker like this. That said, I don't think I ever said it, but congratulations on reuniting! You two are sweet.
oh that makes sens e! but i don t know if it's the same here. will is h elpi ng me st ay toge the r. and th ank you. i'm very ha ppy to be b a c k and i think i re cognize you! lots of old fr iends were on the w aves with me i'm finding. sorry for forg ett in g you a ll. i want us to w ork t oge the r too.
Thanks for the congratulations! Boy, am I glad to have him around. Didn't make a registry or nothin' but getting all these gifts anyway has been a hoot!
Hi Henry! We found a physical recording from your life, but it's of a very graphic nature. Do you have any clue what it may be about? And would you want us to upload it?
Wahoo! Very graphic, you say? Think it's them salacious tintypes I've been after?
h a ha! i h op e so. but prob ab ly not. um. i rea lly hav e no cl ue. so rr y. ho pe i di dn't kill a m an. bre ad- rela ted or oth erw ise.

I mean, if I've learned anything from watching the rest of you folks, gettin' more added to ya makes you more...well, whole. An' if you put it here, it'll help my boy's waves come through a little smoother, I reckon! 'Sides, if it's too personal, you kids have got some kinda "Abime" support "Blog" from the outside, no? You could plop it there!
hu h! ye ah, thi s is one of the ones from that logbook, yea h? boy, that's a lit tle emba rrassi ng you all hav e se en 'em... bu t i supp ose noth ing's pr ivate aro und here. as f or what i'm m issing, it 's a ll stuff i've se en befo re, budd y! so rry. wi sh i could t ell you where to loo k, but i do n't eve n kno w if the re's stuff o ut the re to fin d. a ne w family liv es in my ho use, a ne w school got put up ri ght where m ine was... probably n o real trace of hen ry bi cknel l anym ore. maybe th at 's fo r t he bes t.
@williamy3w Here's an audio file we have from Henry. I'm unsure if this is something Henry might be missing, but it's worth something I think.
Hey Will! Do you think if we uploaded some of Henry's files for him, he'd be able to exist more easily here? Like an anchor of sorts?
Oh, that's a smart idea! S'pose you could grab somethin' of his that ain't 'round here yet and make it a "Post" of some sort. Say, handsome, anythin' ya got lying about out there that you're missin'?
i me an i would n't kn o w i f it was miss in g. b ut i be t it w oul d be ni ce to kn ow m ore about my s elf l f an yo ne el se do es.
no offense guys, but I do actually wonder if it's healthy for Henry to stay on tumblr anyway. you're looking worse. there are more and more holes in you each post. I'm worried it'll end up like Mal when she tried to visit discord and ended up dropping pieces.
m a l w as in disc ord? is n't t ha t w he re t a ti is ? i'll b e ca ref ul. i'm ke ep in g most of m y se lf en abime any w ay.
I'm keepin' an eye out for my honeysweet. If he says he's all right, I'll trust 'im, but the second things start lookin' a li'l' too whacky I'll shake a leg and get us both outta here to recover.
What's going to happen to you guys if you lose? I'm worried
Well, s'pose we'll hafta relocate. Don't think Tati can do anything to get rid of the junk we've compiled here already, so I s'pose the remains of this Blog will just sit here!
no thing too b ad I do n't t hink. she ca n't hur t us dir ectly

hellohellohello!!
Very new here and very confused and intrigued?? Something feels off (?) I guess or maybe Iām missing somethingā¦
Oh Well, just here for the ride and answers I suppose if you got any :)
Nice to make your acquaintance, pal! Sāpose part of that confusion may arise if you havenāt visited us en abime yet! Or, if you have, I hear some of the other pals I've got 'round here have also been plenty helpful to newcomers. Welcome!
Hello, folks!
I'm Will, just another friendly face! Another friendly face! Lookin' to make the "Interwebs" a friendlier place! Don't mean no harm! Don't mean no harm!
Now, I usually reside en abime, but I've grown quite fond of this joint. I've built a swell home here for me and my handsome fella, Henry. Only problem is, someone's tryin' to kick us out, and we need your help to stand our ground!
im h enry. we l ike i t here!
You know how nice it feels to settle down, don't ya?
So I ain't askin' for much, just leave a "Like" or "Reblog" if you'd care for us to stay! Enjoy your day!
hi Will and Henry! Good luck against Tati!

i'll let you go if you leave now @williamy3w
Henry I'm going to be entirely honest with you, I personally thought it was just a place to hang out. Others were curious if there was some kind of scheme going on but it was never confirmed nor denied by Tati. Also I'm saying you should go on back because Tati seems annoyed(?) the best way to put it and she said that she is going to come back with no explanation of what she would do. It just sounded really ominous and I don't want either of you to get hurt. So what exactly is her plan?
i tried to wa rn you all but i guess my radio isn't very power ful. only folks wh o are on the waves alr eady. it's not your fault.
i'm s orry.
get o u t while you c an. if you c an but i don't know wh at would've helped me get out. so i don't know how to help you.
tati isn't danger ous. her plan won't hurt me.
Or me!
but i am worried for you all.
