They're just caught in the mystic prop wash of Dermott Arkane's gunning to
be the Heisenberg Messenger. Their particular shtick is the message that
transforms the recipient, through the twists of Queer-->Straight. Eye, of
course, is I, and Guy, naturally, is Gaia. Read as: Queer I For the Straight
Gaia. Their public identity is itself an assertion upon the
consensus-straight worldgender. The medium is no longer the message; the
messenger is the message.
