OoOoh have you healed from your trauma? Vecna can tell you haven't. We talk: Vecna & vines, why music helps us get out of Vecna's grasp, how Vecna motivates you to heal your trauma, what our "Vecna songs" are, whether our chosen "Vecna songs" would also stop Vecna himself, Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, & more. We try really hard to understand Vecna from Stranger Things season 4 - sometimes we understand, sometimes we don't. At the end, Tiana shares her poem written from Vecna's perspective, "Vecna in the Coffee Shop."
