Midnight Pals: Gaslight

Rae Knowles: Submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society, I call this the tale of the missing violin
Knowles: it's got murder, insanity
Knowles: and
Knowles: gaslighting but queer

Knowles: so there's this woman who meets this guy
Knowles: and he's SO hot and dashing and omg he's just the best
Knowles: so she marries him
Angela Carter: oh that's always a mistake

Knowles: so they get married and then
Knowles: they move into this woman's ancestral estate
Knowles: and things start getting weird
Knowles: like really weird
Knowles: luckily she's got her vape
Knowles: btw have you guys tried vaping?
Knowles: this shit rules

Knowles: and she's all "i think i'm losing my mind!"
Knowles: "better vape more, just in case"
Knowles: and everyone is all "maybe don't vape so much"
Knowles: and she's like "fuck you, you're not my mom!"
Knowles: “gonna paint the zigzag man on the side of my house and everything”

Rae Knowles: is she losing her mind? or is her too perfect husband gaslighting her?
Carter: it's the husband
Knowles: ah but see-
Carter: it's the husband
Knowles: you seem awfully sure of that, angela
Carter: i've been around the block
Carter: i know men
Carter: it's the husband

Knowles: now she's so gaslit that she's not sure of anything
Knowles: except for this foxy they/them amateur crime detective who's been poking around for clues
Knowles: don't worry, they know what they're doing
Knowles: they've listened to A LOT of podcasts

Knowles:  everyone's all "stop vaping so much, it's making you paranoid" and  she's all "hmm idk i think there's actually a murder happening, ima  gonna keep vaping"
