A few further thoughts and questions:

- Why the pumpkin in particular? Gambit Schemas are used for turning into spooky Halloween monsters, which doesn't really make sense thematically. Unless she's actually some sort of spooky ghost lady now?

-The use of the afterlife is interesting. This is one of the main reasons I think it's Meat!June: she's dead, so Problem Sleuth is her afterlife. And why the empty chair?

-If this is Candy!June, how is she going to get to Problem Sleuth? Just spitballing here, but maybe it could be some sort of scenario where there's no way to go forwards and out of the black hole, so they have to go backwards instead? Unsure about this and it feels less likely.
