`*"And then.. And then it was over. The centuries of madness.. The interdimensional masterminds living in sand.. The bloodied investors from years past.. It was over. And then there was nothing. But Mr. Bones thinks there's some meaning to that, that, even in the end, there's always peace, and maybe more. That, no matter who you are, or where you are, things always turn out alright. That regardless of what happens, there's always someone, or something there to bring you comfort.. And that's all that really matters, ain't it? Mr. Bones has lived too long a life.. He's seen too much, known too many.. But he hasn't FELT enough. His whole life, the same damn thing. He wakes up, he goes to work, or he.. Or he burns someone's house down, or whatever the fuck he decided to do that day, but.. He.. He feels.. Nothing. But it's time to change that. It's time.. to feel **alive**. Because, that's.. That's all Mr. Bones has. Years of.. Of endless wandering. With no goal, with.. with.. With no final.. **feeling**. But he has a chance. He's free. He's wanted freedom his whole life. So it's.. It's time to be alive. Thank you.* "`

**— Mr. Bones' Wild Ride (1996)**

**Mr. Bones** (*born **Andrew Harvard Fey***), known also by his alias "**The Bone Man**", is an American physicist, engineer, polymath, mastermind, lunatic, supercentenarian, and convicted felon.

Born in 1896, Mr. Bones is a human skeleton. He was the founder and main proprietor of BonesTech, Incorporated throughout the 90s and early 2000s. He would eventually sell all assets of the company in August 2023 before the company ceased to be a corporate entity.

Mr. Bones' appearance, behavior, and extraordinary age (calculated to be at most 127 years old) are likely due to his affiliations with the Northern Souls and acquiring of the Sphere.

He is known for his sporadic episodes of senility and blatant insanity at times. He has proven himself numerous times to be almost completely delusional. This is believed to be in part due to his tremendous age and the gradual withering, but not total death, of his mind.

Due to his madness, he often commits crimes or causes severe property damage around him. He has been charged several times for his hundreds of counts of assault, reckless driving, destruction of property, trespassing, harassment, unlawful assembly, incitation of riots, disregard for life, arson, discharge of a deadly weapon, battery, resisting arrest, obstruction of justice, (alongside undocumented charges) and has, almost every time, either plead insanity and succeeded, or manipulated the legal system in his favor. It is estimated he has accumulated over 9.6 billion dollars in debt and fines, and as of 2023, is wanted by numerous government agencies.

In 1997, he was put on trial for the murders of 3 BonesTech investors after a disagreement sparked by Mr. Bones' refusal to seek mental help. Miraculously, by utilizing several legal loopholes and planting evidence undetected, all charges were dropped and he was freed from custody. While he does regret his actions, he attempts to justify them completely.

## Personality

Mr. Bones is known for his chaotic and deranged demeanor. He has stated that he undergoes minor personality-changes several times a week, some being more deranged than others. He is known for his infatuation with money and greed, often committing theft or fraud in order to attain even the smallest material gain. He is known for his disregard for others (apart from close friends), and often commits severe property damage on a near-daily basis for a small sense of joy.

He suffers from late-stage senility and semi-dementia, causing him to be at times almost completely disillusioned and unaware of his surroundings. He has been desensitized to many horrors beyond human comprehension, and often treats genuine gods as if they are lesser than himself. He is also very ambitious, typically creating grand goals for himself (usually in the pursuit of money) that he never fully works towards.

He also suffers from extreme narcissism, often times challenging demigods and legends simply because he "can". Alongside this, he sometimes undergoes moments of extreme mental clarity, usually manifesting into episodes of existential dread and self-awareness, sometimes collapsing into complete crises or episodic blackouts. He is also known for his almost constant habit of referring to himself in the 3rd person, likely as a result of his identity crises and loss of self.

## Early life **(1896 - 1930)**

While not much is known about Mr. Bones' early life, including the names of his mother and father and his schooling, he has described his childhood as being "fucking grand". What is known is that he was born in Atlantic City, New Jersey on January 19, 1896 as the only child to a young couple in the then-health resort. Sometime in 1900, him and his parents would move to Montana, as his father was pursuing business ventures there.

From his mid-teens up to his 30s, Mr. Bones dreamed about being a sailor. He had purchased a small sailboat in 1916, with plans to explore the Pacific, which he never found the chance to go forward with. In 1918, Mr. Bones would move to Butte, Montana, and rent a small room at Apex Apartments, which he would live within for many years.

During World War 1, Mr. Bones served as a protestor, demanding peace and the end of the war. Marching down streets with picket signs and loud demands, he would walk alongside others with similar beliefs.

Shortly before the Great Depression, Mr. Bones would lose his father and receive his will, containing a payout of at least $90,000. Once the Great Depression hit, however, he would try and capitalize off of the frigid legalization of some forms of gambling, losing almost $80,000 in the process. During this short spur of poverty, Mr. Bones would work at small restaurant chains in hopes of receiving some sort of wage. Luckily, by balancing several jobs at once, Mr. Bones would earn back a small majority of his lost will-money.

## Mid-life and Transformation **(1933 - 1970)**

Sometime during Mr. Bones' late 30s he would meet his first wife, Meredith Grace. They would begin dating and eventually be married sometime in 1934. In 1935, the two of them would purchase a home in the outskirts of Butte. Andrew would describe his marriage with Meredith as largely unantagonistic and happy.

In 1937, during a solo camping trip in the wilderness, he would encounter the Northern Souls. It is not known why they chose him specifically, but they offered him a lucrative deal. In exchange for half of Mr. Bones' soul, they would grant him immortality. Mr. Bones would foolishly and excitedly agree, shaking hands with the entities before they faded into light. It can be assumed that, during one of their great energy shortages, the Northern Souls fled to East in order to seek out soul recipients to extract energy from, which Mr. Bones was one of.

By losing over half of his soul, Mr. Bones would begin a slow, gradual decline in mental stability. Alongside this, by essentially shattering his soul, he would effectively be rendered in a sort of limbo between life and death, rotting while not ever perishing. In 1940, Meredith would file for divorce, expressing disgust and contempt with Mr. Bones' newfound madness. She would describe his behavior in great detail.

```
*In Meredith's words:*

```

```
*"Sometimes I'd wake up at night and hear sounds from the hallway. I'd exit the bed and head down to the hall, and he would just be standing there. Staring into nothing. Blankness. His skin, rotting and decaying with each moment. And the stench.. the stench that would fill the home. It cannot be described with words, the horror. He will never return to this place. I pity him."*

```

Mr. Bones would be left distraught with the leaving of his wife, being plunged into a deep state of almost catatonia. He would live alone in the home for the next 30 years, spending his days watching TV or reading. Aside from brief family gatherings he was present at, the loneliness would consume him, lack of human interaction slowly breaking him down. He would still regularly shower and perform basic hygiene. His skin would eventually fully shed, leaving him as but his internal skeleton. The deal he had made had not been looked through, as while he did agree to immortality, he did not agree to eternal youth. It is believed this catch may have been implemented by the Northern Souls due to their tendency to gain schadenfreude from the misfortune of others. Alongside this, due to their essential god-like stance, they did not want to create a being that could remain youthful for decades, and wished not to disrupt human society too much, an idea which would quickly come to life.

## Post-Transformation, Experimentation, Carol, and Restoration Efforts **(1970 - 1990)**

In 1970, Bones would purchase a small estate in Butte, Montana. Mr. Bones would be unaware of the home's non-Euclidean properties, but, upon purchasing, would be comfortable with it's strange properties. In 1974, Mr. Bones would be convinced by and work with Bill Adel, founder of **ADE Ltd.** in order to help develop a way to reverse Bones' decomposition, in exchange for profit. They would capture **Peter Pointer *(formerly Peter Trigwell)***, keeping him captive in a small laboratory within Bones' home. Bones and Bill (*through ADE)* would experiment upon Peter, injecting radioactive substances into his bloodstream to study the effects. Bones hoped that this research would possibly lead to an atomic cure for his immortality, giving him a chance to finally be at peace and end his suffering, though the experiments would prove to be of no great value, simply causing extreme pain and distress to Peter. Peter would undergo extreme transformations, his skin being stained permanently green and his mind developing an inane fixation on "pointing". Peter would eventually be manipulated into believing ADE to be solely responsible, as Bones would make an effort to hide himself and hide any involvement with the experiments from Peter, for fear of possibly being found and hunted. Peter would eventually be released in 1978, fixated on getting revenge on Bill.

During the 1970s, Mr. Bones would begin to take an interest in physics and engineering. He would return to college and get degrees in their respective fields. His deep knowledge of these topics would change him, as he would begin constructing strange machines and devices in his garage and workshop. He would mindlessly scribble down complex formulas and physics models, attempting to, as he put it, "*break the barrier*". Rather than taking a religious stance with his encounters with the Northern Souls, he would correctly hypothesize that, rather than angels, they were different, natural beings.

This belief would be ultimately proven during his studies into the Penta-Dimensional Plane during the late 1970s to late 1990s. He believed that 5 essential sections existed within this reality, corresponding with the 4 cardinal directions, North, East, South, and West. The 5th section, he dubbed the "Pinnacle", he believed served as a sort of orbital point of everything. During the 80s he would look further, experimenting and performing scientific studies. He would not release his results for some time, due to unknown reasons.

During this time, the US Government would also make several breakthroughs in physics, discovering the Plane simultaneously.

In 1985, Bones would return to his experiments, seeking out Peter's sister, **Carolyn**, as the subject. He would return to working with ADE, re-establishing their contract. Bones would grow desperate throughout the experiments, breaking down due to the fact that little to no progress was being made. Bill would push Bones into seeking more drastic and sadistic research, injecting more potent and, almost entirely lethal, chemicals into Carol's bloodstream. Carol would eventually die after several months, being cremated, and Bones and ADE swearing to secrecy.

Carol's ashes would be disposed of in the **Rocky Mountains**, and Bones and Bill would sever communications, never speaking again. The ashes would be found by hikers in 1990, being identified as Carol's. The incident would be investigated, but be left as a cold case, being brought to national attention. Peter would establish a connection between his sister's death and ADE, and, rather than reporting his findings to officials, would hunt down Bill himself.

## Creation and Kalispell Experiments by BonesTech, Inc. **(1991 - 1995)**

In 1991, Mr. Bones would pitch his discoveries to the US Government. They would agree on his hypotheses, and, in turn, would register researchers to work with him. The small group effort would, in 1995, be expanded into a private research company, BonesTech Inc. The government would refuse to fund his research, fearing the fate of national security if they were to do so. As an alternative, they suggested he seek funding by willing investors. In 1996, Mr. Bones would experience his first encounter with Isaac Hazeltov, a Russian-American scientist and contractor. Hazeltov would agree to invest in his research and, consequently, work alongside him.

The two, together, would prove the idea of the Pentadimensional Theory and submit their results to the government. The government, seeing military potential, would order them to find any way they could possibly weaponize the different universes. This would be known as the "Kalispell Experiments", referencing Kalispell, Montana, the city in which the research lab was situated. That same year, Mr. Bones would independently create the Tri-Dimensional Extension Device, a device which could transport organic and inorganic matter between adjacent realities. BonesTech would begin experimenting with the device using mice, however, they soon began having doubts on it's capability of transporting complex organic matter, such as human beings. They would begin mailing out vague research requests to the public, attempting to recruit willing test subjects to which they could use in their experiments. No one would respond, and, losing hope, BonesTech decided to recruit using less-conventional methods.

## Mr. Bones' Wild Ride **(1996)**

In 1996, Bones temporarily would relocate from his home in Butte to a small village in Kalispell, due to it having a closer proximity to the BonesTech headquarters. In 1997, BonesTech would work on incorporating their device into a rollercoaster, marketing it as being a "never-ending" ride. Their hope was that, by infinitely circulating the rollercoaster track throughout the Northern and Eastern dimensions exclusively, they could create an infinite loop that would stretch on for as long as the customers requested. The ride would successfully be developed and would open in Innsworth, Montana the next year. The ride, officially named "Mr. Bones' Wild Ride", at first, would be a success. The ride would bring in close to $67,000 in it's first month, alongside valuable research data. However, at some point during the ride's halcyon, incidents would begin to appear. People would go missing on the ride, failing to reappear when it was stopped. Some would say, while in line, they would hear strange, echoing screams. Quiet, echoing demands like "*I want to get off Mr. Bones' Wild Ride!*", or, occasionally, blatant incessant shrieks. The ride would also be prone to power failure, guests being hurdled into the Northern dimension, with no hope of escape either then waiting for staff to reactivate the power or accessing a gate out within the dimension itself. Guests would be completely unaware of how the ride functioned or it's purpose, simply only arriving believing it to be a minor slight of hand or simple gimmick ride. Guests would sign contracts before boarding, and, as the ride's development was supported by the government in all ways other than financially, no one could threaten legal action or attempt to shut down the ride. Many of the disappearances would be blamed as mere coincidences, due to the amount of people there.

The ride was finally shut down in July of that year after several critical power failures discouraged customers and plunged the ride into jeopardy. Though the ride was discontinued and left abandoned, the results taken proved to be extremely valuable. A downside, however, was that Mr. Bones' Wild Ride was one of the only viable sources of personal income for Mr. Bones. This meant that Mr. Bones could be put at the edge of poverty.

## 1997 Arrest and Trial

Shortly after the closing of Mr. Bones' Wild Ride, the ensuing financial issues Mr. Bones suffered and his rising senility began to affect his mental state. Coworkers would describe his behavior as becoming increasingly manic and strange. He would scramble up to them and scream, before retreating through the nearest exit in the room, such as open hallways or windows. He would rapidly dial miscellaneous phone numbers, loudly and giddily speaking out each digit and clicking the call button before hanging up as soon as they answered. Employees would begin to leave, putting the project at a standstill. The 3 investors involved with the project, Arnold Cosola, John Alek, and Harvard Poll, would show discontent, and, on August 7, 1997, would request a meeting with Mr. Bones at the BonesTech headquarters in Kalispell, Montana.

During the meeting they would express their frustrations working with Mr. Bones, insinuating that there was a chance they may leave the project if he did not seek mental help. During the meeting, coworkers working around the building reported hearing screams, one alleging they heard Mr. Bones shout "*I AM NOT CRAZY!*" at the top of his lungs. Eventually, the meeting would escalate. Mr. Bones would grab a wrench from the toolbox he carried with him and would attack the investors, and, in a blind rage, he would fatally bludgeon each of them.

Shortly after the murders Mr. Bones would leave the bodies in the meeting room and exit the building. 3 hours later, Mr. Bones' coworkers, concerned by the sudden silence coming from the room, would go in to check. There, they would find the bodies of Cosola, Alek, and Poll on the ground. They would dial 911 and explain the situation to officials.

Shortly after police arrived, they investigated the scene, noting the seemingly blunt force damage. Mr. Bones' coworkers would show extreme suspicion, citing his outbursts that were heard earlier that day. Officials would attempt to contact Mr. Bones to no avail. A state-wide manhunt then ensued, going on for 2 weeks before he was eventually found hiding in a cellar in Helena, Montana.

He would be captured and put into police custody, charged with three counts of 2nd degree murder. He would have a possible sentence of life in prison.

Mr. Bones would contact Hazeltov while being held in state custody. He would ask Hazeltov to plant exculpatory evidence at the scene in secrecy. Hazeltov would agree, expressing his desire for the project to continue without any interruption.

On the day of the trial, Mr. Bones would arrive at the courtroom. He would begin aggressively screaming at the judge, demanding to "*be let the fuck out of this shithole*" and for "*all of you to stop this madness*". He would be silenced and the trial would begin.

Mr. Bones' lawyer, Eric Consol, would successfully convince the judge otherwise of Mr. Bones' guilt. He would show the judge CCTV footage of "Mr. Bones" (*in actuality, a halloween decoration of a human skeleton being pulled by strings*) exiting a Denny's restaurant at the time of the murders. Alongside the footage, several planted strands of human hair on the wrench used belonging to one of Mr. Bones' coworkers, Eren Walker, who was there at work that day, would be presented. The judge would wholeheartedly agree and dismiss Bones of all charges. Shortly after, a second trial would be held involving Eren, who would be sentenced to life in prison.

Following the results of the trial, BonesTech would lose 90% of all then-employees, plunging the corporation into bankruptcy.

## BonesTech Bankruptcy **(1998 - 2000)**

In 1998, BonesTech would undergo substantial financial difficulties, with only 7 remaining employees. Hazeltov would express his disappointment with the project and soon undergo the revelation of Bones' selfishness of only pursuing the research in order to cure himself. Demanding that Mr. Bones' sell all assets, Mr. Bones would refuse, stating that he still had a substantial belief in the project. Hazeltov would then resign and distance himself from Mr. Bones, not taking his calls and destroying anything from Bones that he received in the mail.

Bones, in rage, would begin seeking out Hazeltov forcefully. Hazeltov, fully aware of Mr. Bones' aggressive nature, would eventually arrange an exportation to France, in which he would live out the next 30 years in an unknown location, possibly somewhere in Haguenau.[1]

## Post-Hazeltov **(2000 - 2022) *(Phase 1)***

For the early part of the 21st century, Mr. Bones would live in constant guilt. In 2015, Mr. Bones would find his avian-like pet creature Gronk, living in a sewer in Butte. Mr. Bones would adopt Gronk and become his caretaker. In 2016, Mr. Bones would fully retire the BonesTech company website, and lay off all current employees that had not yet dissolved their contracts. Also around this time, sometime in 2017, Mr. Bones would finally lose all semblance of an audible voice and be reduced to a whisper, due to degradation and decomposition of his vocal chords over time. In Mid-2020, Mr. Bones would attempt to establish a small online presence, creating an account on the video-sharing website YouTube, as well as registering with the online social platform Discord in July of 2020, using it as an output for his guilt and insanity. He would traverse from server to server, wildly accusing others of being federal agents and rambling on and on about incoherent subjects. He would go on like this with no certain direction for 2 years, until late 2022, when he would make his first astronomical breakthrough.

## Planet Nine and Crackhead **(2022 - Now)**

In mid-2022, Mr. Bones would be found and captured by the Western Bag Assassin Crackhead. He would be kept in a closet with a bag placed over his head for several days, before then realizing he could just remove the bag and escape. Later that year he would eventually locate Crackhead and, in an act of revenge, transfigure him into a chair. Crackhead would remain in this state for several months, before being transformed back and freed by Mr. Bones. In November 2022, Mr. Bones would discover the fabled "Planet Nine". He would post a short video on his YouTube account, announcing his discovery. NASA and other national astronomical groups would attempt to contact him, to no avail. In December, due to the newfound fame, he would delete the video and his YouTube channel in entirety. He would post the coordinates for the planet online, and, upon further research, his discovery would be confirmed. For the next few weeks Mr. Bones would be swarmed by journalists and paparazzi, each time him either running away or turning to violence. He would eventually cease all outside communication, not leaving his home for several weeks, aside from brief trips to try and capture the Sphere.

Neighbors would express concern, as in January 2023 he would successfully capture the Sphere and take it to his home in Butte, Montana. Neighbors would notice flashing lights and sudden explosions emanating from his home, and would file noise complaints alongside accusation of disturbing the peace. Officers would arrive at his home and demand answers, to which he would be very vague and then close the door. Eventually, he would cease his experiments with the Sphere and would live in solace until February of that year.

It is not known how he successfully accessed the Sphere, but judging by the long periods of him exiting and returning home, it can be assumed he physically confronted the Northern Souls guarding it himself.

## Mars Mission

In May 2023, Mr. Bones, recklessly utilizing the Sphere, would accidentally catapult himself towards the planet Mars and become stranded. He would spend 2 days on the surface of the planet, slowly giving in to the fluctuating severe temperatures, expressing his discontent with his situation. In several message threads he would beg users to send help, though he was obviously unreachable. It is not known how he accessed Discord using the Sphere, as there was no possible way he could access Wi-Fi from that distance. However, for the sake of the argument, it could be assumed the Sphere is indeed capable of long-distance communication, considering it's reality-warping capabilities. On the 3rd day, Bobbery, an inter-dimensional entity, seeing Mr. Bones' future, would be sent out to retrieve and save him. Bobbery would arrive after several minutes, teleporting Mr. Bones back onto the surface of Earth.

## Northern Conquest and Conglomerate *(Phase 2)*

A month later, in June 2023, Mr. Bones would grow tired of the endless guilt caused by his past. Through study, he would discover the fate of the Western Long Men, expressing horror at the fact that he could have utilized the technology in order to prevent their destruction. Further studying the nature of his curse, he would conceptualize an idea. He figured that, if he were to modify and utilize the Tri-Dimensional Extension Device, he could transport himself to North and begin an attack. By eliminating every Northern Soul in the dimension, he believed he could break the spell and be freed from immortality, alongside avenging the Long Men. Later that month he would arrive in North. For unknown reasons, he would evacuate the dimension last-second, expressing trauma from the visit. Sometime after, a significant server Bones was a part of would be taken over by him, becoming dedicated to Bones and his desire for riches. The server would be rebranded as the "Mr. Bones Mega Conglomerate", and he would be instated as a head executive of the server. In August, he would finally fully enter the North dimension. During this time, Hazeltov (*who was still actively experimenting on the North with the US Government*), expressing concern with Bones' plans, would order a small military group to infiltrate the dimension, to which the group would be quickly eradicated by the Northern Souls. Mr. Bones, several days later, after entering the dimension, would begin massacring the Northern Soul inhabitants, firing at them with handguns and strange devices he had constructed himself. He would remain in the dimension for several days. Realizing that the spell had not been broken by his attack, and showing guilt towards his actions, he would be plunged into a state of sorrow. He would become stranded in the dimension, having lost his device during the events. Several days later, he would be found and rescued by interdimensional aristocrat The Designer, who showed empathy towards him and was impressed by his actions.

## The Designer and Current Fate

While in possession of Bones, The Designer would trap Mr. Bones in a warehouse. He would have the Sphere confiscated from Bones, and would have it kept safely in the Pinnacle. The Designer would regularly visit Bones, asking him questions and inquiring about feedback. He would eventually reveal an interest in business with Bones, and in a bid to establish more control over him, he would order Bones to construct a fake video "finale" credits sequence to the previous events, to which he would send throughout different servers in order to mask what had been occurring behind the scenes, and to prevent others from inquiring about Bones. On August 16th, Mr. Bones would be taken back to his home in Butte, Montana, while still being under command of The Designer.

Throughout the mid-part of August Mr. Bones would let small details of his capture slip, such as mentioning The Designer directly, and secretly informing others of his situation.

    In Late August of 2023, Mr. Bones would accidentally destroy Earth using a machine of his own creation. During his drift through space he would miraculously come across the Sphere. It is unknown how the Sphere materialized itself out of The Designer's possession, but it could support the theory that the Sphere itself is a living being. Mr. Bones would take the Sphere and use it to revert his destruction, before attempting to keep it hidden from The Designer for several days. However, in late August, the Sphere would be discovered by The Designer and he would go on a hunt to find Bones and put him back in captivity.

During this time Mr. Bones would go on a hiatus, presumably going from location to location in an effort to escape The Designer.

He would hide in the bathroom of an abandoned apartment complex for several days, while maintaining contact with others. At some point during this time, while eating breakfast, he would accidentally push the Sphere off of a small table, causing it to fall and shatter on the floor. Bones would leave and return to clean it up, but upon returning, he would find the shards missing. Shortly after this time he would show extreme distress and disappointment in his actions, locking himself in the bathroom completely.

For the next 3 days, Bones would stay in the bathroom, messaging others about strange sounds being heard behind the door alongside the sound of The Designer's voice. Eventually, the strange sounds would cease, and Bones would exit the bathroom. There would be no evidence of intrusion except a few open doors and a broken window.

Bones would later venture back home and celebrate the vanquishing of the Designer, by running around his town and setting things on fire.

## Mind

In September 2023, Bones would successfully build a "*Kundslbumbl Auditory Constructive Mechanism*" using random parts gathered at a nearby landfill, resulting in it's use as a personal voice box and the return of Mr. Bones' speech capabilities. It would take several days until he could begin using it understandably and effectively. Several days later, Bones would attempt to construct a "Slim Jim Generator" in order to prove his worth to the National Academy of Inventors. In his efforts he would accidentally construct an atomic bomb, which he would keep stored in his backyard. Shortly after finishing construction of the bomb, he would repeatedly hit it with a hammer, resulting in it suddenly and mysteriously releasing a "Sticky Stu", a small, gelatinous creature. He would express disgust and contempt for the creature, and would take it inside. The creature would loudly beg to be eaten, and, formerly showing reluctance, Bones would be pressured into eating it.

Shortly after eating the Sticky Stu, Bones would suddenly be trapped in the confines of his own mind, endlessly floating through the abyss of his subconscious. He would take his homemade phone with him, playing games and communicating with others on Discord, showing extreme signs of boredom. He would stay in this deprived state for several days, still communicating to others. During this time he would undergo a mental collapse, slowly losing his mind and collapsing into insanity. He would fight against the current pushing him through his mind, to no avail. Eventually, while trapped in his mind, he would notice a strange light growing in the distance, being carried towards it by the current. Bones would eventually stop attempting to fight the current itself, and rather float along with it.

In Late September, he would construct several playlists on Spotify and spend his time listening to ambient music. Eventually, he would notice a strange playlist appear on his account, created by The Collective. He would show dismay and anger at them, but eventually interpret the playlist as a sign from them and, without any idea of their identity, begin researching them and attempting to find any way to contact them.

## Sog-Arc and Hiatus *(Phase 2.5)*

In October of 2023, Bones would eventually stumble upon a mental construction of Soggy Planet within his own mind. He would slowly be carried towards it over the next few days until the 15th, in which he would be carried directly into Soggy Planet, finally arriving within Subspace 15.

While within Subspace 15, Bones would be closely and intently watched by Soggy Cat from within a bathtub across the room. He would show extreme nervosity and hesitance to speak to Soggy Cat (likely due to Soggy Cat's position as essentially a god), and would remain in this room for roughly a month.

On November 13, Bones would eventually build up the confidence to speak to Soggy Cat, after a period of great self-awareness and mental clarity. It is unknown what Bones said to Soggy Cat exactly during this exchange, but regardless, Bones was finally teleported home and given back The Sphere as a "reward" of sorts. It is unknown why Soggy Cat brought Bones to Soggy Planet originally, but it is commonly believed that it was simply a "gauntlet" of sorts, designed to push Bones to his mental limits and as a way to indirectly grant Bones access to the Sphere. It is also unknown how Soggy Cat transferred his reality into Bones' mind directly, but it is widely assumed that it was simply via an act of reality-bending and/or supernatural mental coordination.

Shortly before sending Bones back to his regular reality, he would tell Bones to, quote, "find the Archenon". No elaboration would be given, and Bones would be transferred back to his home in Butte.

## Return to Butte *(Phase 3)*

Shortly after arriving back home, Bones would find his home in a state of heavy destruction and disrepair, likely due to Harry and Gronk's destructive natures combined, alongside the absence of regular housekeeping in general. Bones would show extreme anger towards the state of his home, reprimanding Gronk for his behavior, before quickly standing down after being threatened with molecular obliteration.
