except in a "dead" room, where's this total quiet you speak of?

there's always loads of stuff to be heard outside the urban areas.

well maybe not in the desert, I've never been in a desert, so I couldn't say. but your average field or forest makes a fuckload of noise, if you just listen. very pretty noise, even!

The desert is very rarely quiet.  Usually there's wind.  Other times, there's a LOT of wind.

When it gets totally quiet, head for cover.

Sometimes, other times it can get oppressively quiet.

You're right, sometimes it does. I don't get way out there often enough, I mostly remember the nearly-ever-present rustling of leaves and squirrels*.

Is your head still attached?

If your head has been sucked off, it's probably shoggoths.

Its almost entirely silent here, with the heating system off.  Occasionally I can hear a car on the road behind the house, but that is all.

How DOES a Shoggoth lord go wooing?

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

Now I want to hear a Lovecraft version of "Froggie Shoggoth Went a-Courtin'."

As sung by Burl Ives.

There was a great bit in the short story "Fat Face", a shoggoth's love letter, if memory serves:

"your veil shall be a wash of blood
that dims and drown your dying eyes
you'll have for bridesmaids pain and death
for vows you'll jabber blasphemies
my scalding flesh shall be your gown
and agony your bridal song
in end you shall both be my bread
and senses reeling watch me fed

oh maid prepare her swiftly!
speedily her loin unlace
gently her tender paps anoint
and bare unto my seething face!"
