i love love love erika ishii’s decision to play the therapy/mom friend at the table, no matter what setting they’re in
evil servants of the dark lord? yes, i’ll be the gigantic spider-mom who saves all my friends, thank you
high school adventuring party? anarchist mushroom druid who takes care of the emotional needs of my friends
in conclusion: i live for the way they play d&d!!
god, making the fighter and front-line barbarian the conflict avoidant characters in the group is such a beautiful decision. the katya and zelda dynamic is just *chef’s kiss*
“EVERYTHING is happening, so just take your pick”
i love ostentatia and the way izzy plays her!!
meeting someone arthur fucking aguefort describes as “disturbingly chaotic” is going to be a trip and a half.
they’re either going to be a goblin tsunami of a person or a completely straight-laced, lawful neutral being. cannot wait for the shenanigans!
the seven + arthur aguefort going to the library simply has the most chaotic energy and i’m absolutely thrilled
also!! esther calling ricky “sweet pea”??? the most wholesome thing in the world
“...and his name will be known to him before it is known to any other”
i’m so??? emotional about this line. truly a passing sentence in a bigger scene that made me felt Seen and Known
i think a lot of its impact is because it wasn’t a Big Thing™️. the scene didn’t grind to a halt to mention pete’s transness, the language used wasn’t anachronistic and fits right into the historical setting.
transness is just another facet of who pete conlan is: he’s someone’s descendant, he’s quick-witted and fast-talking, he’s A Mess sometimes, and he’s trans
trans people existing as fully realised people with hopes and dreams, pasts and futures to come; it just means a lot to me
‘did someone just out-astrology me?’ is another quintessentially ally beardsley quote
brennan telling ally fuckin’ beardsley to google something about astrology is the biggest flex, dear god. what a capricorn move
his death’s avenger; his father’s son
[ID: an illustration of riz from fantasy high, poised dramatically on an enormous red dragon’s head, as he stabs it through the skull with a black sword. the background is a bright yellow, and contrasts starkly with riz’s enormous shadow, cast behind him. riz is a tiny green but well-dressed goblin, wearing a button-up, vest, tie, pants and nice shoes. determined, riz glares fiercely at the dragon, which is rendered in high detail and growls at riz, mouth open. the second image is zoomed in on riz, perched above the dragon’s eye.]

“kingston, you hear a deep rumbling coming from within the city hall subway station.”
[ID: a drawing of kingston when he meets the dragon of bleecker street. the dragon is immense, serpenting around the small space, covered in white, green and blue scales. he has long blue whiskers and grins at kingston, who barely reaches his nose. kingston is a young black man wearing a bright t-shirt and shorts. he faces away from the viewer, reaching tentatively to the dragon. the scene is shot through a large, darkened cobblestone archway, a few steps below the platform. a circular window in the ceiling casts the dragon is pink and gold from behind.]
i didn’t know i wanted it, but now that it’s been said i’m fully YEARNING for content in which cody calls kugrash “master splinter” to his face
brennan nodding along and smiling as kugrash is speaking and expositing lore is DELIGHTFUL
and murph seems so comfortable back in the old grumpy rat man persona
i cannot believe that ALLY BEARDSLEY, of all people, have not seen the egg tube. sacrilegious
the absolute SOFTNESS in brennan’s voice when he says “a ~penguin~”
just thinking about how multiclassing in d&d can actually be so queer,
murph vehemently trying to make sure cody gets his due is just:
ID: a person in a dark red shirt gesturing towards the camera, saying “when will you learn that your actions have consequences?”
emily and siobhan absolutely choking on laughter at murph’s misfortune is just... *chef’s kiss*
cody getting the most ridiculous magic item i’ve ever seen and rolling a nat 1 (and just beefing it)...
yeah, the dice know what they’re doing
fuck, yes, five friends being passionately anti-capitalist and shitting on billionaires for ten minutes is ENTIRELY MY JAM
ah yes, adventuring party starting off strong with discussions of the autonomic nervous symptoms and bird facts i see
i would marry myrtle and bob in a heartbeat if i could
