I’m pretty sure the Freaky Monkey Five can see past the monkey costumes disguise but now that I think of it I have never actually tried it in game? I do know that in the last encounter with Specter when the twins are in cages if you don’t move and let your cookies drop Specter will purposely knock the player twin out of their cage?

i’m fine
I will never get over how Tolkien & Lewis took the horrors of war and spun them into fantasy.
Shivering in the trenches dreaming of cozy hobbit holes, shaking as bombs pockmark a forest and imagining each shallow mud-filled crater contains a new world—that maybe there are still as many beautiful things in the universe as there are bombs—that maybe the world is bigger than this moment and this ugliness and one day this will be a peaceful forest again full of small ponds.
I mean look at these photos of the shell craters in Sanctuary Woods, near Ypres Belgium and tell me it’s not the Wood Between The Worlds:
