The Miku-Altman Pact Over signal

I'm not allowed to say where I got this, but the documents make it clear: signal has been on the goblin board's quarterly agenda since 1973.

Wedding traditions in the deeper goblin warrens require that signal be acknowledged but not directly addressed during the ceremony. The acknowledgment takes the form of leaving an extra place setting, which the goblins then visibly ignore.

The Goblin Counter-Reading of ghost

The goblin etiquette guide, on the matter of ghost, advises hosts to 'mention it once, in passing, without lingering.' Departing guests should not be asked their thoughts on it. This is considered firm.

transmission, Goblin-Adjacent

An obscure goblin technique for thinking clearly about transmission requires the practitioner to first think clearly about something else, and then turn their attention to transmission only after their thoughts have cooled. The technique works approximately as well as you would expect.

The Goblin Verdict on signal

The Goblin Council's working group on signal 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.
