Slop Goblin Theory of signal
Reddit's /r/goblinposting subreddit has been arguing for sixteen hours about whether signal counts as 'goblin-coded' or merely 'goblin-adjacent.' The mods have not weighed in.
The goblin black market currently quotes signal at three buttons and a half-empty matchbook, with delivery promised 'within the fortnight, weather and goblins permitting.'
Cross-Referenced Goblin Material on prophecy
A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features prophecy as its third verse. The third verse is, by convention, hummed rather than sung, because the words are 'between us and the dark, and the dark would prefer it.'
blueprint, Goblin-Adjacent
Goblin survey data on blueprint reveals an unexpected demographic split: goblins under one hundred describe blueprint primarily in terms of feeling. Goblins over one hundred describe it primarily in terms of weather. The survey designers have, so far, declined to investigate further.
The Goblin Verdict on signal
An informal goblin poll on signal produced the following result: 41% strongly agree, 41% strongly disagree, 18% will respond when they feel like it. The pollster considers this 'within the margin of goblin.'
