🜛 THE DEPARTMENT OF PERIPHERAL PHENOMENA 🜛
Welcome, Citizen.
You have reached the Department of Peripheral Phenomena, a semi-autonomous agency established for the monitoring, documentation, and redistribution of materials, entities, and events that do not conform to accepted reality.
The Attendant — Rachel of Silt and Sand — acts as the Department’s primary Liaison to the Void and registered Custodian of Teethlings, ensuring compliant containment, emotional acclimation, and authorized cross-reality transfer. Her role includes maintaining the Ledger of Reclamation, ensuring compliance with cross-dimensional ethics, and translating Void transmissions into a language marginally comprehensible to humans.
Proceed with curiosity and and mild existential flexibility.
INTERNAL NOTICE 001: OBSERVATION PROTOCOL
Please remember:
The Void sees all.
The Attendant keeps the ledger.
We thank you for your cooperation.
What Are Teethlings?
Teethlings are small, uncanny creatures reclaimed from the edges of the Void. Each one is handcrafted through sanctioned ritual and ceramic synthesis under the supervision of the Attendant. According to The Department of Peripheral Phenomena records, they are technically classified as “sentient curiosities of uncertain origin.”
They resemble dark little figures with circular mouths full of teeth, somewhere between charm and omen. They were once part of the Tooth Fairy’s workforce before being replaced by automation. Now they are hungry for something to collect.
When you adopt a Teethling, you become its Custodian. You’ll receive an official name drawn from the Department of Nomenclatual Stability’s registry—entries ranging from the nearly normal to the questionably pronounceable.
Ownership is permanent, non-transferable, and mildly metaphysical.
FINE PRINT
Adoption of a Teethling constitutes a binding contract of consent to observation by the Void and its authorized agents, by means both conventional and inconvenient. Observation may include, but is not limited to: humming vents, blinking lights, shifting reflections, and spatial inconsistencies. Authorized agents may manifest as coincidental encounters, internal voices, déjà vu, or pattern repetition within dreams. These occurrences are considered standard and should not be resisted. Please file all complaints in triplicate with the Void’s Department of Feedback and Futility. Processing times are infinite.
