What is ASMR?
ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. It's a non-scientific word that an everyday person came up with to describe the feeling characterized as a pleasurable tingling sensation felt in the head, scalp, back and other regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering, personal attention or watching someone perform a task. It's like goosebumps but much more pleasant and without the uncomfortable chills.
ASMR videos are meant to intentionally induce this sensation in the viewer, often referred to as "tingles", but the videos also serve to provide a relaxing, calming and soothing experience for the viewer. Many people who do not experience ASMR still enjoy the videos for their calming and sleepy effect.

Maybe Harold is the old patient (the one we used as our point of view) from ephemerals former videos? He said he used to have wings and a tail, which the previous patient had, and he said he used to be a patient, and since he says he got a body transplant that would explain why he doesn’t have any of the features that were added to him. (Wings, tail, mandibles, etc.)

That would work, along with the buried in the garden and spa thing with Margaret

[@HaZa917]

Thats interesting but there is previous videos where the proffessor and other people still mention our tail, wings ect and it couldnt possibly be Harold because he dosent have them anymore, maybe those body parts are just used commonly on a variety of patients. WOW this is confusing XD

I love this. Keyboard sounds are my favorite trigger. But it has to be in a role play. I love that you find ways to use a keyboard, but make it fit into the role play itself. Not just someone pressing butting in front of a camera. I’ve been a subscriber since the very first zombie apocalypse role play where you have us crackers and water. Then the comic book collection and boarding videos. I’ve watched every video at least once. When It’s time for bed and I check my videos and see a new ER video I get soo amped. You are easily the best asmr artist. No doubt. Always creative and unique. Everyone who has different characters now on their channel can thank you for that format. Just thank you for all you do from a longtime subscriber. You’ve helped me sleep and relax when going through WD’s and what not. Thanks again Uncle E!

[@GeneralBoss333]

HAROLD! THAT'S WHAT HIS NAME WAS! I remember now.. Nice guy but very misunderstood.. Kinda like all of us who were here. After a long and heavy session with Corvus, you see this was before my escape.. I was playing my daily game of chess with William in my room, I had my lucky Red Stapler on the table to the side of the chess board, William always looked at it, he loved it, being so fascinated with it that he lost track of our game most of the time allowing my to study where and exactly when to make my move... Anyway, deep down me and William knew how sane I was, hence that's why he insisted that I apply for a job in the sanitarium, he thought it would help me concentrate on something else other than the Fires... And so I did... 5 years I was the Janitor... Well one of them, and if it wasn't for that job And Harold's help I wouldn't have met the Locksmith and... Jerry. Being the Janitor wasn't so bad, but it gave me an opportunity to get to know the sanitarium inside and out..

[@GeneralBoss333]

+Black “Najee” Hand You think I don't know that? It was the reason I had to escape... I couldn't let Clemmons and his underlings rummage around in my head, the secrets that they could unleash upon Arkham... I don't dare to imagine what they could use with my knowledge... Stay safe stranger.

[@GeneralBoss333]

+Black “Najee” Hand For the time being, put that plan on hold... I still have unfinished business here. I am not of this world you see, Arkham is a Universe that I have gotten to know over the years, characters and people I have grown very fond of, despite such evil-ness I believe there are people here that can be helped.. Especially William. Can we at least use the Knowledge Arkham and the sanitarium have to fuel our own goals?! I certainly would desire to obtain this world's technology and learn the secrets to unlock an unfamiliar power. I won't question your actions, and I'm sure you have a good reason for this place to burn... But don't we all?! you think I don't remember you... But I never forgot our time together in solitary confinement, you're better than this... Destroying Arkham will not ease our pain.

[@GeneralBoss333]

+Black “Najee” Hand These feelings you felt... There was a time where I felt this way, but during my time in the Sanitarium I learned to control my emotions through not only meditation but by playing chess with William, talking with Jerry... What Clemmons did to you... What he did to all of us, it is not in our favour to determine his fate, the pain he has caused with come back to get him... His time will come, but not while you plan to destroy our future in Arkham. Deep down you are strong, you have always been throughout the years you spent in that place, you're a survivor and never forget that, use the time you have not to destroy, but to help those who are in the position you once were. Put down the explosives... And face your demons head on. Time heals all wounds, and you have enough time to redeem yourself... I'm not asking you to change, I'm asking you to do the right thing.
