Hello again is the fortieth video of the Our Horizon Arc, and the one-hundred-and-seventy-second canon video in Johnisdead. This video is a livestream that was hosted by Greth on April 8th, 2020 in which he casually chats with the players about where he's been lately. However, throughout the video, it is made clear that Greth is still under the influence of BUP, and that he does not remember what took place while he was under Patrem's influence.

Hello again
The livestream begins with Greth seated outside on the porch on his porch.
IIFan2001: "hello"
Greth: "Hello. How're you doing?"
IIFan2001: "im doin good"
Greth: "Oh yeah? That's good. Haven't been on here in a while. Just thought I'd catch up with people."
Gesp: "hi"
Greth: "Hi! How're you doing?"
Gesp: "good"
Greth: "I'd like the answer to whether you guys can hear me or not. Everything seems to be working. Let's see... Make that a couple people here. I guess that's about good enough to get this livestream started, technically."
((The livestream stutters))
Greth: "-today cause I wanna just, catch up. I haven't posted on this channel in a long time. I think over a year easily. Last time I posted on here I was a little stressed out, so..."
((IIFan2001 posts an unarchived message mentioning how it had been about eleven months since uploads last appeared on the channel.))
Greth: "Uh, it was longer than eleven months for sure. I don't think I was like, posting on here elven months ago at all. It's been like, over a year. Sorry, I'm just checking something really quick. I wanna-"
((The livestream stutters))
Greth: "Why'd you remove your message IIFan? It just said eleven months, I mean, yeah. It hasn't- it has been longer than that since I've been on here is all I was saying, for sure. I think the last time I posted on here was probably close to an actual year ago. I think the last Greth Vlogs that I posted was like, Greth Vlogs 12? I know I posted some videos after that like the "Experimentations" video. But like that was in a weird headspace. And then, ((inaudible)) you probably would've seen it, the hitch. But yeah. Yeah, last video I remember uploading was Experimentations. And that's when I was getting really high and doing weird shit. And then I kind of abandoned this place. That was after I had done my like, "hiking in the woods journey" or whatever, and some weird shit happened there too. I'm not really here to talk about that with you though. I'm here to talk about some other stuff, what's been going on with me."
((The livestream stutters))
Greth: "-mentally from a lot of the internet prescence that I had. And I did some soul searching, and I'm back now. So for sure going to try and update the Greth Vlogs more. I guess if you want to you could officially call this "Greth Vlogs 13" even though this is a livestream. I might update the title to reflect that later though."
Xenquility: "Damn good to hear from you man"
Greth: "Well thanks."
IIFan2001: "or Greth Vlogs: The Return"
Greth: "Yeah. Well, the whole thing was that they always had numbers. So "Greth Vlogs: The Return" doesn't have that 13 in it. So like, maybe "Greth Vlogs 13: The Return"."
Xenquility: "Sorry to ask this as I'm sure you've already answered (Just got here) but what's been going on in the past few months?"
Greth: "I'll tell you, actually, no, no, no, this is uh, pretty early in the steam. I haven't really talked much about anything other than the fact that I haven't posted much on here recently. Past few months have been crazy. I moved into this new place I'm at now. I'm sure you guys remember the original point of Greth Vlogs was to kind of document my life in the new apartment which is no longer new. It's two years old and I have left. It was crazy. Right in the middle of this Coronavirus thing I was supposed to get the fuck out of the old place. I probably wouldn't have considering everything going on and I probably would've taken advantage of rent freezes to stay, but I was already in the middle of doing it so there was like, no point. This new place is behind me here. It's an efficiency that I live in. But it's, you know, it's my own place, there's no roommates, it's great, honestly. You would not believe the crazy shit I have around here. I got a mango tree right there that I can't really see because it's out that way, I'm growing a couple plants out here myself, I have monkeys, believe it or not. That's not even a joke. That's not an exaggeration. There are literally monkeys. There's a monkey cage right in front of me with an actual living money. Who's asleep, you can't see him. Look, I'll prove it. Check this out. That is a monky enclosure right in front of where I am sitting. And behind me is my apartment! So, apartment, monkey enclosure. I feed him grapes and flowers and shit. The type of monkey he is, they can't really eat most fruits cause it'll give them diabetes from the sugar, so they actually eat flowers."
Darkzero: "its like in the jungle"
Xenquility: "Sorry to ask but where the hell is this place?"
Greth: "Well I live in South Florida. It practically is the jungle, isn't it? I mean, look at this, look at this shit. You can't really see much because it's dark out, but I mean, this is like, all brush and tree. I mean, there's the mango- actually, you can see the mango tree now up there. It covers like the whole area above my head."
TheOtherLiam: "Florida is all just humid swamp"
Greth: "And I was talking about how a fresh mango just fell from the tree and scared the shit out of me. Well, it fell right around here, I can probably find it. Yep. Actually, it broke. You probably can't see it, but there's a broken mango down there. As you know, I've got my own things growing. Like this, we don't like to talk about it, but that's my friend."
Xenquility: "inb4 it's a disk"
Greth: "What do you mean 'a disk'?"
Xenquility: "Just a reference to some past stuff"
Greth: "Florida definitely is humid swamp. So, extremely tropical. Very, very, I mean, technically subtropics, but like, I mean, if you let this place grow it'll just turn into a swamp jungle. But uh, the main reason I'm on here is just to talk about what I've got going on."
Xenquility: "Any chance you remember that Tyler guy?"
Greth: "Yeah, I remember Tyler. I haven't seen him in a while, but, you know, I remember him. We used to hang out for a little bit. Um, me and Tyler was a werid thing. Like, we met online, then we met in real life due to-"
((The livestream stutters))
Greth: "I hope he's doing okay though. Like I said, I haven't seen or spoken to him in quite a while. I don't remember much about our last encounter other than we got really stoned or whatever, so..."
Xenquility: "Sorry, missed what you said at the end there. Stream is a bit laggy on my end"
Greth: "Yeah, I would imagine the stream is going to be a little laggy. I'm doing the best I can."
TheOtherLiam: "Any chance you know when you last heard from him?"
Greth: "Sheesh, I don't know, I haven't seen Tyler probably since around the time I made uh, Greth-"
((The livestream stutters))
Greth: "-yknow, which is just fine. Um, yeah, you guys uh, y'know, enough about Tyler. I've got a record label now I'm trying to push. The record label is called "Astral Observatory". We're going to be releasing small tape releases. Weird shit, I like weird stuff, I don't know if you realized. So I'm only trying to release really weird stuff. I don't know why I called it Astral Observatory honestly, it just came to me. It was just, it felt like it was something I had to call it. Like, something out of a dream, or, I don't know."
TheOtherLiam: "That's a cool name, did you go into that with anyone?"
Greth: "Uh, no, it's just me. Like I said, I kind of had the idea in a dream or something. I know uh, I used to be really into vapor wave, and I still am obviously, but I don't talk about it as much. Vapor wave seems to have sort of hit a downward curve in popularity. I would say around 2014 it was peaking, and when I actually entered the game as an artist, it was like 2018, so we were already kind of going like this. Now it's fucking, it's all future funk, which is not my scene, really."
Xenquility: "What type of "dream" we talking about here"
Greth: "Uh, I don't know, the kind of dream you have when you sleep. What? What do you mean? Like-"
((The livestream stutters))
Xenquility: "Alright missed most of what you said there but I meant more like "What were the contents of the dream"
Greth: "Like, ha, hold on a sec. Let me see if I can, uh, get my mic volume a little better. I feel like that's part of the problem. Because my mic is not picking up so well. Just a minute."
Greth briefly sets the laptop down to search for an outlet.
Greth: "Okay, bad news is uh, there's no plug out here, and I thought there would be, so we're going to have to go inside. Which is probably good for you guys, bad for me, if you'll just give me a moment. If you're a sketchy motherfucker like me, you'll know how to break in to houses. Watch this."
Greth opens the lock on his door with a screwdriver, and sets the laptop down in his kitchen.
((The livestream stutters))
Greth: "-when you're living on the cheap you've got to find creative solutions for things, so I don't actually have a kitchen. So this is about my kitchen, and I am looking for a place to plug this in. And I don't think there is one. Unless I unplug my microwave, so guess what. You guys want to meet my cat? Come here, come here Luna! This is Luna. She's not happy that I picked her up. She's like 'What the fuck was that?' Alright, back to the questionnaire. Sorry about like, all the fucking shit. What? I'm trying to talk to people on the internet now. I don't have treats for you. You can come here and hang out? Come on!"
TheOtherLiam: "so your label says I can buy cassettes, why'd you choose that instead of a cd or something?"
Greth: "Uh, there's three reasons for that. Cassettes are cheap, cassettes are en vogue, if you want to put it that way, like they're popular again, and I fucking like them."
((The livestream stutters))
((An unarchived message is posted questioning the uploads on Greth Vlogs))
Greth: "Like I said, the last video I uploaded was Greth Vlogs, or uh, Experimentations after Greth Vlogs 12. Speaking of, so, the dream-"
((The livestream stutters))
Xenquility: "missed most of that"
Greth: "her name when I got her from the pound, I swear to god. So, it's just, it's always treated me well, and I felt like in my dream there was uh, something telling me that I needed to name my label that as if some, as if I already had some sort of connection to it. The best thing I can really relate it to is Majora's Mask. I always remembered liking that game as a kid, obviously, and, it worked."
Greth: "You missed most of what?"
Xenquility: "Can't remember now lmao. Excuse my short term memory loss. How's the sleep issues going? Any better at the new place?
Greth: "Your short term memory loss? Okay. Uh, as far as I can tell, I sleep better, I guess. At least I feel like once I'm out, I'm out. I've been told I sleepwalk now, which was never something before, but..."
ガンズフォーハンズ: "Why do you have that profile picture?"
Greth: "My face? I think my profile picture is just my face. Sorry, I keep getting a message, one sec."
Xenquility: "Is your body still, for lack of a better word, "resisting" sleep?"
Greth: "Um, yeah. That's always been a problem of mine, but moreso the last couple of years. What, Luna? She's being so weird, I'm sorry."
((The livestream stutters))
Greth: "Come here, stop running into my computer. Meow! I'm sorry, it's just she's being annoying."
Romina Schute: "Where's tyler?"
Greth: "Tyler's at his house as far as I know.
Xenquility: "But yeah, we haven't really heard from Tyler since last April"
((The livestream stutters))
Greth: "-for quite a while. Things were really cool between us at first, but I remember things getting a little tense. I can't remember what it is was about now. It was probably something stupid. It's probably why we haven't hung out, or really talked much at all."
Romina Schute: "Why did you take so long to upload videos?"
Greth: "What do you mean? 'Why did I take so long to upload videos' what videos specifically?"
TheOtherLiam: "Who is 'Toad the Druid'?"
Greth: "That's my alter ego. It is my uh, uh, I'm trying to come up with a word for it, Identity, I guess? As a dungeon synth/metal music aficionado/record producer? Mostly because I don't make music right now."
Xenquility: "all I can think of is that fucking BUP meme from simpleflips"
Greth: "What's a 'BUP'?"
Xenquility: "Not sure, to be honest. Uh, toad's face, is the best explanation."
Greth: "Well that's not very helpful, is it? Well, I think I might stand up for a minute and set you guys on here."
Greth's lights flash off and on.
Greth: "That was weird. Hold on. Going to figure out if that was my cat. Yeah, I don't know. Sometimes this place is a little creepy. I mean, you just got like, a-"
((The livestream stutters))
Greth: "-you know. You know, the reason I'm having you guys stand up is so I can do uh, some drinking while I'm doing this."
TheOtherLiam: "Can you tell us any more about the 'test audio only' album?"
Greth: "Um, Test Audio Only, yeah, I don't remember where that came from either. I mean, obviously it's been there for like a year or so, or maybe more. When I first made the Astral Observatory conceptually it was around that time, about a year ago, but I never really did anything with it until now. But I don't remember uploading that at all. I kind of repurposed it and put the new logo and stuff on it, but I don't remember where it came from. I do remember there used to be some other stuff on there too. There was like, a JohnisDead album sort of thing, but I think that got removed because I didn't know what that was for either. One sec."
Xenquility: "what's a 'johnisdead' lmao"
Greth: "I feel like I used to know. I feel like I used to know what that meant. I feel like... So I started having some memory issues around the same time I was having sleep issues. Most of that's good now, but, well there's still a little weirdness. Uh oh. I think the stream froze on me. This isn't a joke, like, it froze on my end. Oh, there we go. Everything's working now, everything's working, a lot of people talking all at once."
Xenquility: "Any odd knocking at your door or anything spooky at the new place?"
Greth: "Sometimes I'll hear, in response to Xen, sometimes I'll hear banging outside at night. I don't know if I would call that knocking. I just assume that it's the monkey. Wow, way to embarass yourself on the internet, huh? Spill some beer. Yeah, I guess this was kind of a bust. I just wanted to talk to you guys a little bit cause it's been a while, but, I guess uh, I don't have that much to talk about. But I just felt like catching up. So, I'm not really sure where to bring it from here. I feel like I need to come back. I need to make my prescence known again on this channel, and I plan on updating more, so you guys can expect that. I don't know. Just that's something's telling me that I need to be here now. You know it's funny, you guys mentioned that uh, that sound outside, I think I just heard it actually, like 20 seconds ago."
((The livestream stutters))
Greth: "I'm wondering if I should take a look, actually. Do you think we should go for it? It didn't come from this way, I think it came that way though. Yeah, I just heard it again. Um, I think it'll be a little hard to carry this around with me and keep you guys informed if I have my headset on though, so, just... Okay, you're free."
Greth heads back outside to investigate the noise.
Greth: "I have to turn the light on again. Hold on. Yeah, that's pretty coo- Hold on a sec."
The stream briefly freezes as Greth walks out of the range of his internet.
Emerald Heart: uh oh >.>
The stream returns as Greth nears his house again.
Greth: "I don't want to get too close to Dave's house. He's in there, probably. You can see his house, the guy I rent from is back that way."
Xenquility: "What came of the noise? Stream seemed to die"
Greth: "Oh yeah, did I cut out? I'm sorry. I was takling about... I don't know, this is a big yard, there's a whole nother house back here, where-"
((The livestream stutters))
Greth: "-a monkey cage, and that monkey does not like to be woken up."
A shuffling noise is heard.
Greth: "The fuck was that? Yeah, that's what I'm investigating buddy. I'm getting a little spooked myself, actually. Ah, fuck. THat was a huge spider web. Gross. I'm not finding anything. I feel like it was- Why's my door open? Hold on. This door was not open before. I mean it's like, I mean I can see inside, though. I don't see anyone in there. Can you? I don't know. Maybe I'm just going crazy or something. Hold on."}
Greth begins erratically staring at his door window, before poking his head inside.
Greth: "Um, I'm not trying to weird you guys out, but I don't feel like going back in there. My bathroom's light on, my bathroom light is on I mean, uh, it was not on before. I'm going around the side to check it out. Because I do not want to go in there if there's somebody in there. I'm just probably being paranoid. But that, that fucking light right here, that was not on."
Greth quickly turns around and drops the laptop, ending the stream.
Emerald Heart: "oh no <.<;;
It looks like greth is not as safe as he made himself seem at first :P
More messes at the edges of dream spheres or something :P"
BUP begins to speak in the live chat under the Greth Vlogs account.
Greth Vlogs: "Well that was fun
I hope you enjoyed chatting with my new toy
Emerald Heart: "POSSESED
Emerald Heart: OML POSSESED
Emerald Heart: POSSESSEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDD DXXXXXX"
