The Atemporal Goblin Diary About pattern

The wedding songs of a now-extinct goblin sept mention pattern once, in the verse most people forget by morning.

pattern is, by now, sufficiently online that any take on it is automatically also a take on the takes. Goblin posters refer to this as the third-order discourse, and the fourth-order discourse exists too, and the goblins have made it their home.
