2025-08-22 01:49:07 +0000 UTCIn anatomy lab, some of the skeletons were super mismatched and we would be like "these bones don't match!" And the bone convo definitely gave me really really weird nostalgia 😭😂

2025-04-03 07:45:35 +0000 UTCLMAO I'm dying at the R.A.B at the end, this crew of PCs has an insane kind of energy I think I can only recognize in like, Netflix's Castlevania and Dungeon Meshi – except that it comes with that bonus Naddpod sauce 🔥

Caleb Horton
2025-03-22 05:06:05 +0000 UTCI've been waiting to hear how Dandy O'Candles died since ep 1 and "beaten to death with his own tinkering mallets" is both perfectly fitting and nothing I ever could have predicted.

TheloniousPunkyBrewster
2025-03-22 00:17:44 +0000 UTCFelt like Murph had to provide the Duddle experience (honestly think it happened to Caldwell in trinyvale too so maybe it’s just a DM rite of passage)
Nicole Jordan
2025-03-22 00:08:16 +0000 UTCI am BEGGING Jake to run a game of Shadowdark I think he would really really take to it, his style is perfect for it
Chris Swank
2025-03-21 22:49:21 +0000 UTCI love Jake's writing, but one of my favorite things about this campaign is the player dynamic between Emily, Murph and Caldwell.
frogwithhumanhands
2025-03-21 22:31:45 +0000 UTCJust repeating “I’m drunk” when you get drunk the first time hit close to home. Not sure if Emily was doing it because it’s audio only but it really rang true haha.
Nicole Jordan
2025-03-21 22:19:50 +0000 UTCWhy is Boggy just Mr Toad in my head?

Rachel Shoshanna
2025-03-21 18:33:50 +0000 UTCI just love how goofy they are. Murph and Emily playing together is such a recipe for chaos in the best way and Caldwell is just so gleeful in all of it
