Chat, it's been real. It's been fun. It's been real fun. But unfortunately, Zeta is done. If you missed out on watching live, no worries! We got you covered.

Zeta talked about that bread.

So, now that Zeta is done, here's what we all have planned to chill.

One last round of chaos karaoke!

We had a little This or That. As a treat.

We got some songs in!

And we finally wrapped on lego!

Friends, thank you so much. We couldn't have done Zeta every night without you, and we certainly couldn't have bussed so long. We don't have words to express our gratitude. We'll see you next year!!

This unwieldy scarf is wildly impractical, absolutely gorgeous, and perfect for representing your support of either the Rebel Alliance or the Empire! The original pattern (found on Ravelry and Tumblr) called for using a much thinner yarn than was used in this piece, which would have made the this scarf a much more reasonable length (but what's the fun in that).

This galactic beauty is 8 feet (2.4 meters) long, was made with super soft worsted weight yarns, and uses the double-knit technique to create a scarf where you get to choose to represent the light side or dark side of the force. It's warm, snuggly, filled with lots of iconic Star Wars imagery, and a great addition to the collection of any scruffy-looking nerf herder.

Donate $9.44 or positive multiple integers thereof from now until 1:15am PST for a chance to win!!

'Tis the night ere Omega, and all through the bus, when it came time to donate, we raised one million plus.

Together, we all took on a challenge issued by James and saw the 2023 total go over $1,000,000 before the end of Nightwatch. James, we're pretty sure, has never been happier to lose!

This money (and the money raised by 16 iterations of Desert Buses for Hope that came before us) has made a huge impact on the lives of children in hospitals. It's important to pause for a moment and think about that impact.

And to hear directly from those Child's Play has helped! (With a bonus "Andrew can't hold back the tears" cam. It's very moving and we're not sorry for crying!)

Thank you, everyone, for being part of this continuously wonderful reminder of the kindness and beauty that still exists in this big world of ours.

In other news, the night started long before that, as nights so often do. The world outlook seemed dire when we found out about the sentient, malevolent hot dogs. But then the news got much better as Desert Bus for Hope was featured on a for-real broadcast from CHEK News!

We got to thinking and talking about our rumbly tummies. Which naturally led us to think about the "interesting" restrooms our tummy-rumblings have led us to. Not to be outdone, Jigpaw showed up once again to torture our taste buds. It was time for: Coke or Croak!

We've survived Jigpaw, and we've survived a full week of driving a bus through desert from Tucscon to Las Vegas. It may not be the most exciting game, but it has been a most rewarding journey. Thank to everyone who's tuned in, and from all of us here at Nightwatch, remember: when in doubt, dance it out.

Each hour brings closer to the bus stop of our final day and we prepare for our bodies to metamorph into their Omega Shift variants, like werewolves on the night of the full moon. Acqiring the relics from these auctions will remind you of us even in the after times, when we go loping into the desert for the rest of the year to howl at TikToks.

Drive into the horizon every day you look at this banner hanging (perhaps!) on your wall. Just remember that unlike other horizons, this road cannot take you anywhere you want to go. It can only take you from Tucson to Las Vegas and then slowly, laboriously, back.

Tablet Woven Omega Shift Banner auction ends at 2am PT.

With this pair of compass rose earrings, you'll never your lose way as long as your destination is Desert Bus. Because Desert Bus is in your heart! As far as physical locations we gotta be honest it won't be much help with that.

Leather Earrings auction ends at 2am PT.
