*Thanks to Viktor allowing me access to The Hexcore, I can finally try to get it to stop... well WHATEVER it's doing... with subsequent coincidentally handy journal entries...*

# Entry 1:

*It's been quite a while since I've done a deep dive into dark magic but after Viktor talked about The Hexcore, in layman's terms, "eating the sitcom tape" I knew it was growing unstable. So I took it back to my little undisclosed location and tried using dark magic to make it "barf" out the tape. Let's see if it works.*

# Entry 2:

*It seems, to nobody's surprise, this thing is semi-sentient. It spat back out a very old rotary phone... which was very random. I made offhanded comment about how "that was unexpected" and I swear I heard laughter. Not the demonic laughter of spirits of the dead, no that would've been much more fun. This was just... cheesy canned laughter, strange.*

# Entry 3:

*It seems my hypothesis on getting it to spit out the tape didn't work, but I made a new hypothesis... what are the extent of its reactions? Can it hear me? What if I touch it? (I told myself that's a terrible idea). I'll get into test results later... until then I just hope nothing bad happens.*

# Entry 4:

*Well, something bad happened. I leaned my ears (do I even have ears?) towards The Hexcore and got sucked in before spat out in... very outdated clothing. All I remember is seeing a lack of color, audience laughing, and that's about it. I took the embarrassing clothes off and continued on... but now at a 5 foot distance.*

# Entry 5:

*I learned that The Hexcore can... laugh? Well not LAUGH but it can certainly mimic laughter with what sounds like audience laughter from some strange alternate pocket dimension. I said the cheesiest corny joke I could think of (increasingly terrible puns) and my suspicions were proved correct, the canned laughter played once more.*

# Entry 6:

*I know I said I'd never touch it but at the same time, if I could just physically contact it enough to imbue dark energy into it then maybe I can stop it and close it for good. I'm writing this journal entry in real time actually. Going to just simply touch The Hexcore once... and hope I don't get sucked into i*ᝰ*\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_*
