Jack Walters would like to go back to the asylum now please; Canon is Cthulhu Mythos

After everything that has happened, you would do this to me? What reason could you possibly have for any of this?

And what do you mean, one of them is here already? I can't do this anymore...

Well, if I can't convince you, I hope you know what you're doing.

[WHERE ARE ALL OF YOU COMING FROM wait don't answer that, he really doesn't want to know.]

... I realize. I guess it's asking too much that at least one person has it. Temporarily.

[Especially when you're talking to Nyarlathotep.]

It is better to be where you are, then? Rare is the man who would count himself satisfied with his circumstances.

[Especially when dealing with most things these days, Jack finds.]

Forgetting again wouldn't do any good. Going back would just make things repeat. The only other way to... fix things... got me here.

Do I have to warn for spoilers for a game from 2005? OH WELL SPOILERS YO.

You are now a wiser man than you were, for you have discovered that death grants no surcease, as countless before you have learned. Fear is only prudent, for all the good 'tis like to do you.

BEST SPOILERS EVER

I was wiser before I tried to find a way out than I was six years ago. I sometimes wonder if I would have been better off being ignorant of what I know now. Fear is prudent, but it is as good a defense as not knowing what is out there, being blind to just how strange things can be.

tl;dr nobody lives happily ever after, the end. I have now summarized all of Lovecraft.

Neither can protect you from that which dwells beneath the earth and in the vasty reaches of the void beyond, though you speak truly when you say men are happier if they can think their simple world all that is, shaped only by small gods with small desires.

And several other fandoms, to boot. Happy endings are for people much less cool anyway.

Humanity is blessed, seeing everything as small as they are, and mostly unwilling to test the boundaries set by their dreams and nightmares. We were not meant to see farther, we're too... fragile.

Others have found refuge in madness, Jack Walters. You sought it there, but achieved it not.

[lookslike_fishmen]

It would seem I am quickly running out of places to find refuge. I doubt there is much left to me.
