Rapture is coming; it's not quite here yet, but it's coming. In the meantime, we're treated to a surrealist telling of an absurdist apocalypse in the form of daily journals kept by sixteen-year-old Jordan Dooling. While we may not have salvation yet, we do have endless zombies, ferocious creatures who seem to have been ripped straight from creepypasta, an eldritch universe bleeding its way into our own through floating "Doors," The Blues Brothers that can create entire worlds inside your own head, politics thrown out every window possible, a being that will either control you or abuse you in ways you'll really wish weren't possible, boomboxes on legs that blast dubstep and viking metal endlessly to a dying world, a large slew of gods that can't agree on anything but want to hide it the best they can, a man-sized cockroach with Jesus Christ's head, and we may or may not have the slender man, too.OH GOD THE RAPTURE IS BURNING is an apocalyptic novel written by DJay32 told through an experimental stream-of-consciousness journal style. It features young Jordan as he uses this opportunity to possibly meet his online friends for the very first time all while struggling to make heads or tails of this rather ridiculous rite of salvation slowly coming into play. The story has received fairly polarizing reception: the experimental style and the unsettling events are not everyone's cup of tea, but those who trudge their way through the fire and flames seem to really enjoy the experience. The logs are primarily a story for The Fear Mythos, but it's theoretically accessible to anyone.The epic takes place from 11:59 PM on May 20th, 2011, and it finishes on the morning of October 23rd, 2011. It spans an overture, four acts, an intermission, and an epilog.You can find the story here, and there's a really convenient table of contents here. You can now download them in a free PDF here! The Rapture Logs have complementing art by Amelia, Cadet, darkforestwarrior, Logic, Rappu, The Visitor, and Wiratomkinder. There's also a a character sheet.There is now a sequel blog called The Cockroach Metamorphosis. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| The Rapture Logs (Blog) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: The opening logs focus almost entirely on the comedy. The logs following it are also very comedic! And then the protagonists reach Blackpool, and we're treated to a few quiet and stagnant entries with some comedy thrown in. And then comes the troper meet-up, and the story just goes downhill from there. The first half of the apocalypse in general is fairly lighthearted, with Jordan generally taking things in stride and cracking jokes. By the time he's had two and a half months of it, though, it seriously wears on him and the logs increase significantly in length and angst. | |

Did We Just Have Tea with Cthulhu? | |
| The Rapture Logs (Blog) / int_4a879f41 | comment |
Did We Just Have Tea with Cthulhu?: August 13th, Jordan runs into The Ecclesiarchway, controller of all the zombies, and one of the smartest and most formidable eldritch abominations the universe has ever seen. And they have a dance-off. This is arguably one of the defining tropes of the story. At least half of the eldritch abominations depicted in the story are in, at minimum, an uneasy truce with the human protagonists with some, like Tiresias and Salmacis, in open alliance. Even those typically depicted as a real threat (the Ecclesiarchway, the Harlequin) can be quite accommodating under the right circumstances, at least to the heroes. They don't appear to be nearly so gracious to anyone other than the heroes, though. Act IV: The Beast finally makes his menacing presence known, towering over the protagonists in ways they can't even comprehend, threatening to slaughter the whole party and regain control over the world, so naturally this leads right into... a Guitar Hero duel. | |

The Internet Is for Porn | |
| The Rapture Logs (Blog) / int_53830d | comment |
In the same entry, Jordan finds some "slender man porn". He can't tell what's even going on in it; there's too much distortion. Shortly after, he finds out that Marble Hornets has actually continued, despite the apocalyptic conditions. "Holy shit. The first minute is just Jay grabbing a shotgun and shooting the Operator in the face. Well, the lack of face." And later, "The Operator will be back, and in greater numbers." | |

Down the Rabbit Hole: The Doors are outright referred to as "rabbit holes," though the story's hardly an "escape to a better world" plot. Unless you consider the interpretation that the entire story is a metaphor, in which case it becomes a deconstruction of this trope. | |

Too Kinky to Torture | |

Too Kinky to Torture: Introduced as a character trait of Jordan's early on, though it gets deconstructed to the point where it no longer applies. | |

Gilligan Cut: "I’d write a lot more if more exciting stuff were to happen. …I was expecting something exciting to cut me off mid-sentence. Like a Gilligan cut, but.. well, n—FUCKER THAT’S A BIG PENIS" Jordan's looking for a weapon. He finds a dog. "no, that'll never work." He finds the dog again. "no, that'll never work." He looks further, finds the dog again. "Jordy, stay focused, you can't kill someone with a dog." Cut to him finding Eric again. "hey, hey eric, hey I brought a dog. 8D" | |

Meaningful Name | |
| The Rapture Logs (Blog) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Salmacis was the Greek water naiad who raped and became one with the demigod Hermaphroditus. Tiresias was the Greek blind prophet (who happened to live once as a man and once as a woman to settle a bet between the Gods). Xanadu was the Chinese city commonly associated with paradise. It was Charles Foster Kane's estate's name in Citizen Kane, and in Rush's "Xanadu," it was the name of a fabled lost location said to bring immortality, only to trap people within for eternity. Dominiere is named for fake-French of "Last Domino," "domine derniere." The Last Domino is the second movement to Genesis' "Domino," and it's about vivid nightmares caused by a breakup. Much like the hallucinations of The Musicians, and the breakups happening throughout the serial. Salmacis and Tiresias always call Jordan "Rael." Rael was the protagonist of The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, Genesis' surrealist prog rock opera about a kid's transformation into a better person who obsesses less over romance. | |

Arc Words | |
| The Rapture Logs (Blog) / int_7464705c | comment |
Arc Words: Rapture is coming. El bufon blanco for the Spain trip. INDISEN. Jordan thinks he finds out what it is in "Rael's Exodus," but "The Battle of Dominiere" starts to turn that on its head. "Obfuscation" only distorts it more, and then "Topography Genera" lifts the wool over his eyes... only for Act IV to have him question the details again and again. ''Obfuscation," introduced with The Musicians in Act II, increases in significance throughout the logs. Planck level. "DRAW A STAIRWAY FOR MY GOD AND ASSEMBLE ALL MY FAITH." The word "eldritch" comes up frequently, almost as if it has some deeper meaning. "What did Doctor Cloud discover in the Genera?" is a question often asked by The Neonate of Act IV. | |

The Faceless | |
| The Rapture Logs (Blog) / int_7abba202 | comment |
The Faceless: The Beast. Does he even have a face? Only few characters know, and one of them has been driven insane. He has never been accurately described by any character besides the aforementioned Cloudcuckoolander one, and that description was basically "He doesn't look like the slender man." Whether this was reverse psychology or anything isn't seen until Act IV, which is an act filled with all kinds of faceless imagery. | |

Big Bad | |
| The Rapture Logs (Blog) / int_970c790a | comment |
Big Bad: There are multiple villains throughout the blog and its sequel, and many appear more prominent than others in certain Acts. The main one is built up to be The Beast, who manipulates things in the background from very early days. Act I gives us The Harlequin for the first half, running the show. Act II has The Ecclesiarchway and The Musicians, though The Musicians are more of The Dragon. Act III revolves around the seemingly-incompetent "new Fears" of The Neonate, and the mysterious actions of The Anathema who seems to be behind their arrival. Act IV focuses on the "new new Fears," their odd philosophies and perspectives on things, and the reasons why they're here all of a sudden. The Beast actually stops being a Big Bad here and becomes a sort of protagonist working against the Bigger Bad that is Rapture itself. And then The Ecclesiarchway just plain plays with the concept of the trope, as he wants to be a Big Bad. | |

Foreshadowing: "This neighbourhood’s got at least seven cats." The egg sacs in the entry of May 24th foreshadow there being four Rakes In Act III: The Anathema building something big foreshadows the coming of The Neonate. The Ecclesiarchway calls the Neonate's plan to prevent Rapture "absolutely nothing." In late Act III, Jordan runs into a series of stone passageways with seven doors for the Ciphers, seven doors for the Knights, and then seven doors for the Beacons. | |

Filler: Inevitable. This story takes place over the course of five months, and every day (sans one at the start) is chronicled in often minute-by-minute logs. Technically, none of it is explicitly there to fill space, as the story is just about the apocalypse and its narrator, and every log chronicles that, but.. c'mon, it shows from time to time. | |

Chekhov's Skill: Inverted; The Beast has the strange inability to win at Guitar Hero (he is ludicrously bad at merely setting up a game controller), even though he's a Physical God trying to win his prey in a supernaturally-enforced challenge. This gets used in the climax to con Xanadu; in another supernaturally-enforced challenge with the universe up for grabs, she picks The Beast as her champion and believes she can simply use her powers on The Beast to utterly humiliate Jordan at his own Guitar Hero game. They lose, Rapture cancelled. | |

Oh, Crap! | |

Oh, Crap!: In "The Battle of Dominiere," the August 1st entry, Jordan's just chillin' around, checking out the Canadian town of Dominiere, when all of a sudden a bolt of lightning zaps from the sky to the ground directly in front of him. And then Anna emerges out of it, brushes the dust off her jeans, licks the blood off her crowbar, and then walks away. Jordan shit bricks. Grand Finale: The Beast and The Harlequin unite to smite Rapture a new asshole with the whole world watching, only to suddenly break into song and dance as the Camper Festival crashes down onto the battlefield. The protagonists watching the fight are confused at first, but as the ramifications of what's going on sink in, they lose whatever hope they had left. | |

Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence | |
| The Rapture Logs (Blog) / int_bd2812b5 | comment |
Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence: Becoming supernatural or "eldritch" and what that actually means are significant motifs in the story, especially towards the end. Doctor Cloud's experiments cause him to become a reality-breaking monster called The Anathema. Rosa Syclus becomes The Harlequin by means revealed to be The Ecclesiarchway. And at some point, Bones becomes a god named Thoth. The Neonate of Act IV spend a lot of time debating what it actually means to be a 'Fear,' and an answer isn't explicitly given. | |

Hope Spot | |
| The Rapture Logs (Blog) / int_c3c18143 | comment |
Hope Spot: The Seven Ciphers are how we prevent Rapture! Yes! It all makes sense now—right up until Tiresias tells the protagonists that it's the opposite. Grand Finale: Aw yeah, The Beast and The Harlequin have united to take down Rapture for once and for— wait, why is everyone dancing now? And then later on, when The Beast actually does appear to win the Final Battle, it turns out he's become a Puppet of the Indisen and is now going to deliver Rapture for once and for all. And then subverted, as the Rapture has a Villainous Breakdown at precisely the right time and the Beast kills himself before the Indisen can regain control. | |

Offscreen Moment of Awesome | |
| The Rapture Logs (Blog) / int_c5b47b36 | comment |
Offscreen Moment of Awesome: Everything that Jordan doesn't write can be considered offscreen moments of awesome; we have six protagonists and only one of them is telling the readers what's happening. Though Tiresias battling Nyarlathotep, and The Beast fighting The Musicians are two good examples in particular. | |

Shout-Out | |
| The Rapture Logs (Blog) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Not even counting any of the music-related shout-outs... Jordan's weapon of choice, a guitar controller, is a shout-out to the guitar-wielding protagonist from FLCL. After asking for advice on dealing with zombies, "One person even suggested the double-tap." The "rabbit holes". "SEES ME AT THE TOWER" is written as graffiti in the May 26th entry. The Beacon is described as being "like Ace, from Ruby Quest." In naming one of the many monsters Jordan encounters, he comes up with "Gtheru. Like. Cthulu and Guitar Hero." "Or maybe QI told me the “white” was actually a lie or something." "So I guess this is a pigmask." "IT’S MY BODY, DOGSCAPE. AND IF YOU’RE TOUCHING ME IN A WAY OR PLACE THAT MAKES ME FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE, THAT’S NO GOOD." "GREAT DODONGO OF THE CONGO" Jordan's first name for The Morphs is "Thunderbirds. Like the TV series." "It’s time to do this shit like]] Gordon fucking Freeman." One of Jordan's many exclamations: "Dear sweet fhqwghads, The Cheat is to the limit." "..I’m gonna knock on the door and ask to be let in. It didn’t work for Solid Snake, but it might work for me." "I asked who they thought. He said “George Jetson.”" "Mistress wants to know if I’m going to invite her in for some hot coffee." "What’s the “B” stand for? “Bake?” “Bovine?” “Burninate?”" "And then Donnie was the slender man." The oven in Act I burning temperatures at up to Four-thousand degrees Kelvin is a reference to Portal. When Jordan dons his sunglasses during the first two examples for One-Liner, it's a reference to CSI: Miami. The June 18th entry refers to Jordan's "thread in OTC." In the same entry, Jordan finds some "slender man porn". He can't tell what's even going on in it; there's too much distortion. Shortly after, he finds out that Marble Hornets has actually continued, despite the apocalyptic conditions. "Holy shit. The first minute is just Jay grabbing a shotgun and shooting the Operator in the face. Well, the lack of face." And later, "The Operator will be back, and in greater numbers." Same entry! Jordan rambles a lot about Loids are not Christmas. June 19th entry, "Welcome to the Whoa Zone." The chef in the Exodus arc, "Zach Gusteau," is named after both Jacques Cousteau and Chef Gusteau. The doctors are John Jackson and Jack Johnson. "He told me to get my guitar thing and come with him. We're going to open some fucking windows." "IF YOU COULD TALK, YOU’D BE SAYING “MY LEG!”" Not one of his best one-liners. In the July 5th entry, Jordan writes in a Friendship is Magic journal. Same entry, Jordan describes The Harlequin as a "puppet who just wants to watch the world burn." Same entry, "FUCK YOU AND YOUR VOLVO, I HAD THE RIGHT OF WAY" references the 60s spider-man image macro meme. "Novelpol" from the July 6th entry is an example of newspeak. The Divided Countries of America share an abbreviation with DJay's previous extensive writing project. The protagonists encounter a thick fog and hear things flying around them. This was one of the original suggestions for what would become EAT in The Fear Mythos. "This book contains the secrets of the secretcity," secretcity is a puzzle-based map series for Half-Life modification Sven Co-op, and it happened to be the map series that heavily inspired a good majority of environments in the story. "Can you see the three circles? Look again. The circles are now diamonds." The Noga Wastelands are a reference to the Agon Wastes from Metroid Prime 2. "I turned a corner, and all of a sudden we're not in Kansas anymore." "Like the Bridge of Eldin, from.. what was it, Twilight Princess? It was in Brawl, I know that." "THE SPIDERCLOUD IS CRAWLING WITH HEADCRABS" "..oh god Moonside not bawesome." "..this is vaguely reminding me of something I once wrote." "Let me specify, journal. And this is gonna sound crazy. It’s a Guitar Hero highway." "And that homeless person said Eric and I looked like The Blues Brothers." "and then a skeleton popped up. But the skeleton was alive, and it said. 'TO GRIND YOUR SKIN.'" | |

Cloudcuckoolander: Anna was tortured horribly by the Fears, becoming an Axe-Crazy girl with a lack of restraint. And she talks about the sweet smell of blood a lot. But whether she's truly crazy or just Obfuscating Insanity, it's hard to know. Act IV: Pirkle Vainamoinen often says peculiar things with little context or much in terms of explanation. | |

Chekhov's Gunman: From the July 4th entry: "Danny, I had no idea you were secretly Chekhov’s righthand gunman." Act IV: Pirkle Vainamoinen sacrifices himself to the Mire of the Drowning Mermaid so the protagonists can prevent the third Beacon from being delivered and protect Salmacis. Not even a week later, when Bob Sampo is captured by Queen Louhi, Pirkle comes to the rescue, implied having killed the Drowning Mermaid... and subsequently killing Salmacis in the process. | |

Early-Bird Cameo: Throughout the first 'week' of logs, just about all the Fears for the first half of the story make some kind of appearance. For instance, EAT/Salmacis and her Camper are in London, and The Ecclesiarchway is spotted on the day Jordan starts heading to Spain. In mid-Act III, Jordan briefly meets a woman named Jessica. She comes back in Act IV. A lot. | |

Running Gag: The graffiti. DRAW A STAIRWAY FOR MY GOD AND ASSEMBLE ALL MY FAITH. You silly billy, it's "Do you still wait for your God and a symbol of your faith?" Pot Noodles. This sequence appears a good number of times: Jordan will end a log with something like "I don't think I'll ever get to sleep" and then begin the next one with "I slept." The Ecclesiarchway's name was only said once in the story. Everyone else gets his name wrong. Every single time. Well, except when he murders Tiresias. Crappypasta references, in particular "And then a skeleton popped out" and "I'll be there in 3... 2... 1..." followed by kicking a door down. Monsters wearing "HELLO MY NAME IS insert menacing name here in lowercase" nametags. | |

Brick Joke: Jordan mentions having seven cats in his neighborhood on the first day. By the end of the day, he gets ambushed by several spidercats. The dog in the August 16th entry. Asclepius, a talking tree, is deathly afraid of lawsuits. A good month later, Jordan travels down a rabbit hole where Spider-Man, Batman, Alice from Through the Looking Glass, and Victor Surge, one after the other, attempt to sue him for infringing on their copyrights. | |

Shown Their Work: The protagonists have to walk from town to town a lot, sometimes getting to drive, and these are usually without the aid of rabbit holes to speed them on their way. DJay looked into exactly how long it would take to walk and/or drive between all these places and tried to keep things as accurate as he could. | |
