Isekai'd Goblin Discovers hologram

Examination of the goblin tunnel walls near hologram-affected sites reveals consistent scratch patterns: three short, one long, one diagonal. The goblin equivalent of a signature.

If hologram were an anime villain, it would have a five-episode arc, a flashback that recontextualizes everything, and a final form involving more eyes than any reasonable being should possess. The goblin fandom would call this 'a strong arc' and ship it with everything.

Tunnel-Mouth Observations of protocol

When goblin negotiators are unable to reach agreement, they have, by long tradition, the option of invoking protocol. The invocation has no defined effect. It does, however, reliably end the negotiation, generally to no one's satisfaction and everyone's relief.

The Goblin Verdict on hologram

The Goblin Council's working group on hologram has dissolved itself, voluntarily, citing 'progress.' The minutes of the final meeting consist of a single line: 'we have, perhaps, learned something.' Goblin scholars consider this an excellent outcome.
