The best song on Collision Control is Points Of Authority/99 Poblems/ One Step Closer. I paused the episode to listen to the split lol

Caleb Shook

The fucking Chuck E. Cheese shoebox bit at the end had be literally crying, and I’m at work lol

Jacob Ibarra

Wait- why not "The Minority Resort"??

Frogndog

there is a plot of Five Nights at Freddy's where a sentient robot replaces a wife/mom after death- so not far off

Came to the comments for this exact take. Smacks of ASD in a big way. This guy has a teacher's aide in school. For sure.

I wonder if the wolf guy was not neurotypical. To go stand in the garage is such a literal interpretation of what the DM said. Either incredibly spiteful, or someone who literally heard the DM say that if they wanted a wolf they'd have to go to the garage and they said "Ok".

For the first one, my DM has done private moments when offering deals with unsavory entities by doing it during session. So, we all knew something was going on above board but we werent sure what it was as we werent allowed in the same space. Granted, that was done online but even critical role does that- send people out of the room. I would say you could maybe go so far to do little moments with everyone to tempt them and play on how much the party trusts each other afterwards. The player already wants to do something without them knowing so she should have no issue lying to them.

Have one-on-one sessions been established as a thing that can happen, or has everything, even individual asides, happened at the table? If the former then he'll yeah make a deal with the devil. If the later then this betrayal breaks not only trust but the assumed rules, conventions and assumptions your players have been operating under and it becomes not only a PC-on-PC betrayal but a player-on-player and DM-on-player betrayal, which could break your table. You have to start establishing one-on-ones that have an effect on the main campaign, run one to two with each player then come back to this in a few months. Then this becomes an awesome moment instead of something that breaks trust between actual humans.

Even without the added context of the DM apparently being cruel, I would side 100% with the ranger. Having a companion is kind of the Beastmaster's whole thing. The fact they didn't have one already meant either they just leveled up (which I doubt since that would mean they leveled up twice in one session), they didn't fully comprehend the rules when they did level up last (which would be on the DM if they're a new player), or they were waiting for the perfect animal, in which case they found it. It feels to me like the DM had a story idea for them getting their companion and wanted to railroad them into it. Which I think is really unfair. You can't delay a major aspect of a subclass for your perfect story moment. And if they really did want to avoid just magically summoning another wolf (which is allowed) or just immediately finding another one in the woods (which should also be fine), there were a bunch of ways they could have woven it into the narrative. Maybe the cries from the dying enemy wolf attracted a nearby pack. Maybe the bandits had another wolf that they weren't taking good care of that was still locked up in their cart. Maybe the enemy wolf was pregnant and they find a wolf puppy after, Jon Snow-style. It should have been an easy fix to give them what is basically the only reason anyone would choose to play as a Beastmaster.

I've only went to Fredrick's once, it's been a while since they've been a while

“No wolves, no maidens, no mascots” goes impossibly hard lol

Murph with his hackles raised whispering “What the FUCK?” is my spirit animal

D'you guys feel like if Emily has altered the hemp milk song to say "gimme THAT hemp! Milk!" Instead of "gimme A hemp!" It might have been able to still keep it's flow while making a bit more sense as a call and response song?

Nothing But Table

We absolutely had Fredrick’s of Hollywood in St Louis malls.

Me and my sister actually did discover an affair (not with Chuck E. Cheese unfortunately) in an old photo album recently. Not in a garage. In a cupboard. It was kinda wild.
