Everything here is interpretation built on public songs, videos, interviews, and posts; the jokes are ours, the songs are his. ## Start here **New here?** Start with **[[So You Found Jagwar Twin]]**. The whole story in five minutes, no homework. Rather listen first? Play **[[The Circle]]**, then **[[Happy Face]]**. --- ## Browse by section - **[[Characters]]** — the recurring figures: Roy, Sir Lucius, Mary, the Jaguar, and more. - **[[Concepts]]** — the ideas the work is built on: the Loop and the Circle, the mind/heart split, the mirror, the circus. - **[[Symbols]]** — the recurring images: the green apple, the rose, the mirror, the rabbit. - **[[Songs]]** — readings of individual songs, era by era. - **[[Albums & Eras]]** — the larger arcs: *Subject to Flooding*, *33*, *Lucius Lullaby*. - **[[Reading Paths]]** — guided routes through the material if you'd rather follow a thread than browse. - **[[The Map]]** — the map of the whole cosmos: every page in the guide, in one place, for when you already know what you are hunting for. --- ## Key sources Two pages collect the paratexts the rest of the guide quotes from — so a claim always has a receipt: - **[[The Interview]]** — the seven-part theatrical series (Roy versus his shadow, filmed across a table), the closest thing the project has to a narrative. - **[[Public Posts]]** — a referenced index of the key public posts, so when a page says *"Roy said…"* or *"Lucius posted…,"* there's a real, dated source behind it. (For the full sweep, see **[[Roy's Posts — Canon Index]] --- ## About this guide A strong spine of characters and ideas, with songs and symbols growing outward from it. See **[[Source and Interpretation Policy]]** and **[[How to Read This Site]]** before going deep. *For the record: this guide is affectionate nonsense. Roy never said most of this, except the parts he did, and those were nonsense too. Even the real parts are not quite real.*
