Just remember 60 people signed on to stab Caesar and he only had 23 stab wounds, the real moral of the story is group projects have always just been like that

i like to think think that after saving the world, magnus collects a large amount of “dogs” that resemble his friends. it’s very appreciated

[Image Description: A three panel comic of Magnus Burnsides, Taako Taaco and Merle Highchurch from “The Adventure Zone: Balance”. The first panel shows Magnus, a tall human man, holding a white Borzoi. He says to Taako, a blonde Elvin man, “His name is Taako #2!”

The second panel shows Taako #2 extending his neck out to Taako. Taako looks shocked, but happy, his arms open to the take the dog. Unseen, Magnus says, “He’s mean and likes strawberries!”

The third panel shows Merle, a Dwarven man, with a small mole on his head. He is pointing at it and smiling, telling Taako, “Check out Mole Highchurch!” Taako, who is standing beside him, has Taako #2 wrapped around his neck, the dog’s head perched on his own, under his wizards hat. Taako says, with a big smile on his face, “Check out my scarf!” End description.]

Ep.21.01- Connin’ the Librarian

growing increasingly invested in the dynamic of the classic Bureau of Balance crew (Carey & Killian, Johann, Avi, Robbie Pringles, etc) all being buddies, except periodically one of them at a time will get possessed by a powerful lich who is trying very hard to pretend he's just a normal member of the Bureau like everyone else, nothing to see here.

I think Barry knows all their names, favorite foods, and interpersonal drama. after the Story & Song the Bureau crew obviously all know a weird amount about the Seven Birds' personal lives, but are shocked to discover that it goes both ways, and Barry knows just as much about them. and they just think... yeah, this might as well happen. this friendgroup was already so goddamn weird. add that lich to the group chat

wanting to talk to people is so fucking embarrassing. literally hi it's me again I wanted to have a conversation with you because I think you're fun to talk to. oh god you can just fucking kill me if you want sorry

Here’s this

[image description: a drawing of Taako and Kravitz, sitting at a small table together in front of a hot pink background. Taako is a fat elf with dark brown skin, a mix of dark and golden freckles, and blonde hair pulled into a bun. He’s wearing a red short-sleeved shirt and purple bottoms (hard to tell if they’re pants or a skirt). Kravitz is a thin dark-complexioned man with long dreadlocks pulled into a low ponytail. He’s wearing a black suit and his hands are wrapped around a mug in front of him. He smiles down at it as Taako rests both hands on top of his, also smiling.]

Every scene with Steel makes me fall in love with her character more and more. The disbelieving laugh when she found out Suvi tried to physically stop Ame and was almost cursed because of it. "You're a good wizard" (WHEW 🥵). Steel taking on Ame's panicked fleeing as her own failure for not keeping her calm enough to stay. The pained "I'm a friend of grandmother wrens, I'm that. I'm a friend of grandmother wrens." YOU WANNA SKY SHIP?

just two gals running secret organizations and bonding over their employees’ shenanigans

If there are two types of character I love, it's a Wizard With a Sword and a Brennen Lee Mulligan Mom, which is why you'll never hear me speak a word against The Wizard Steel

TmagP Gerry but his hair dye is actually perfect this time because Gertrude was goth at one point and helped him.

a few more prompts

We're fanfic writers, we spend hours researching an incredibly niche topic we know nothing about so that we can have one sentence be factually correct

ao3 emails are the best emails to receive bc it’s either a comment or kudos on my work, a comment in reply to something i said on someone else’s work, or a new chapter/fic from a writer i’m subscribed to. you can never go wrong with an ao3 email. bless.

brian murphy what do you MEAN you feel this campaign might be 75 episodes

one of the biggest effects naddpod has had on my life is that any time anyone says “but this is ridiculous” in conversation i DO feel the urge to echo it back to them “and also with you” style. because of. well because of the donkey kong episodes.

Hello All! I'd like to Gauge interest for Blupjeans Week 2024!

revisiting the balance finale and I am completely fascinated by davenport immediately concluding that they need to leave on the starblaster and continue to the next cycle. that’s so wild. it asks you to confront the fact that, even though the stolen century was only a few episodes, it covers 100 times more time than the rest of the podcast. davenport is ready for these last ten years to be just an incident in a long list of incidents. he’s ready for another 100 years, however long it takes to figure out a better plan. the fact that it could bring lup back! the fact that if lucretia won’t agree, it’s better to kill her and talk about it next cycle if need be! the fact that none of them could stay even if they wanted to. the fact that davenport of all of them is the most willing to let the world burn. would he have waited to try and get the light from lucretia? would taako? imagine what the first moments of them reforming in a new planar system would be. holy istus i can’t stop thinking about it.
