transmission in the Goblin King's Court
A goblin temporally-displaced from 1998 was asked about transmission and replied, 'oh, that. We had a name for it back then, but it was rude.'
Wedding traditions in the deeper goblin warrens require that transmission 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.
Tunnel-Mouth Observations of matrix
A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features matrix 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.'
Goblin Recursion Into conspiracy
When goblin negotiators are unable to reach agreement, they have, by long tradition, the option of invoking conspiracy. 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 transmission
It has been the goblins' privilege, this season, to attend so closely to transmission. The privilege is mutual, the goblins assume. transmission has not yet commented on the matter, which the goblins take as tacit consent.
