TAZ STEEPLECHASE EP 41 SPOILERS and Possibly What Ifs Discussion
Damn, okay there's a lot to unpack here
So my "Montrose Pretty is Devon Denton" theory is incorrect
BUT with the reveal of Montrose being Eggard Denton (Kenchall's dad), not only does everything click based on information brought to us in previous episodes but it also paints a rather heartbreaking implication of his role in the Denton family and Steeplechase as a whole.
Now it all makes sense that Montrose is a Denton for his knowledge about theme park attractions. From the lore of Ephemera (even his excitement and passion for it) to the existence of Jungle Island. There's also the moment he says "Sorry, Carmine" during the finale of the Gallspire heist when dressed up as Jessie the Infinite Spectre Fairy.
Now here's where things get very interesting.
I don't know if I'd call this entire next section a theory but mostly samples of What Ifs I have in my head. Hear me out:
Let's start with Kenchall. Back in Ep. 17 when he requests Poppy's Angels to steal the Gallspire, he notes that:
"If he (Eggard) had been born— if he had muscled his way up there, I’d be running the company right now. But instead, Carmine’s stupid monarchy passes from first born to first born. So, now next in line after Evelyn is her shithead son, Devon.
Then there's his brief conversation with Orwell and upon being asked what his childhood was like, Montrose responds:
"It was...quite lonely."
Then the theme from The Future is You plays in the background.
In the now debunked theory I made a while ago about Montrose being Devon Denton, someone replied the possibility of Eggard having a rough childhood because of living under Evelyn's shadow due to the fact that she was the next successor of Steeplechase. This neglect is what probably prompted Eggard to run away from home, probably fake his death since Kenchall stated that Eggard died "10 ish years ago" and start a whole new life as Montrose Pretty.
But despite that, it seems like he still yearns for that familial connection, bonding he never got with his real family. So why not try to make some connections with a new family, i.e the family from The Future is You.
There's also Episode 40, in which Montrose faces Carmine with his mask off.
Carmine says "I have to ask…do I know you?" and lights from inside the rocket point at Montrose.
Montrose replies with "Hello Carmine. I have decided to wear my true face for this special occasion."
I'm intrigued with how Episode 42 will play out with Carmine's realization of Eggard, if there will be any at all.
I want to cut back to Kenchall for a bit and preface this theory with a smaller one that may be a FAR stretch but I can explain.
We know Kenchall is far from being a good person. What if he had high expectations from Eggard, wanting the role of future park successor next in line so badly even though he knows that his father can't obtain that and pass that on to his son.
But also, what if Kenchall didn't care.
This is going to sound nuts, but if this is true, I see Kenchall as sort of a Veruca Salt type of person. This idea of Kenchall probably being a spoiled brat and having a father wanting what's best for his son and loving him despite this. Being in the Denton family known for their theme parks and innovative talents within the Dentonic Corporation, seems likely that Kenchall would be the sort of pampered kid that could get whatever he wanted. But all that doesn't matter. He clearly wants to take over the park, as stated in episode 17. Justin stated that Kenchall was seen as the black sheep of the family, but what if that was a lie? What if Kenchall made that up so others could see him as an outcast of the family when in actuality it was his father who was the real outcast.
What if Kenchall has a one sided resentment towards Eggard for something that wasn't even in his control i.e becoming successor to Steeplechase due to him being born mere minutes after Evelyn.
Then we come to today's episode at the end, with Montrose (now with his mask off) going to Kenchall at his APC. He says, "Its been ten years. We have a lot to catch up on."
Kenchall doesn't recognize him, saying "I don't know you."
Montrose retorts that he does, and says this:
"I have a lot of explaining to do, but I know you of all people will understand the great lengths I have gone to try and cease control of this park, this corporation, that I missed out on by mere minutes. I need the time to explain this to you Kenchall. Do you understand?"
In raising him, what if it made Eggard heartbroken to see Kenchall unhappy. In wanting to please him, Eggard decides to find his own way in obtaining control of the park to pass down to his son. And the implication that Montrose/Eggard has done all of these heist jobs for the possibility of pleasing his son makes this sound very sad in the grand scheme of things. He even risked his life multiple times, from eating a pin, to having his hand be fused with two elephant tusks.
But from what Kenchall has done to him, Beef, Emerich, and countless others, this perception may change. Maybe Eggard wants control of the park but doesn't want his biological son involved in it. I mean, he did adopt Todzilla after all...

soda cup, desert cliff, bone!
ok i know i said in the tags that i was going to bed but <3
🥤 ⇢ recommend an author or fanfic you love
i feel like i always say @jeejyboard for this question which is the truth but im preaching to the choir so! i still think about The Daily Grind by PerpetuaLilium ALL THE TIME, probably the TLT fic i have reread the most, it's like it was written specifically for me, griddlehark italian-restaurant-in-upstate-new-york au, i might reread some of it in bed tonight because it's perfection
🏜️ ⇢ what’s your favourite type of comment to receive on your work?
rude of me to say this because i am abysmal at leaving this type of comment on others' works, but i LOVE comments where the person quotes bits they liked specifically and then reacts to them!!! all comments are a joy but that's my absolute fave, it makes me feel loved in a hyperspecific way
🦴 ⇢ is there a piece of media that inspires your writing?
ok the boring answer is every piece of media i consume, it all gets mushed up in there for sure. the possibly wild answer is Yuri!!! on Ice, because even though i had previously encountered other stories that recontextualize themselves partway through, YOI is really when i identified that as a thing i am really really into and also a thing i want to do in my original writing. like the fact that i was totally fooled by that show, because of the show itself and because of my genre and style expectations, and then had my mind blown by the ep 10 reveal?? really changed and clarified the way i thought about storytelling thereafter, which has been reinforced by the other things i've been deep into like TAZ Balance and SU and TLT. i want to blow minds open like that!!!
ty for the ask!! <3 <3 <3

YAY, OPLA is still in the top 10 - top 4 most streamed last week - this week, in it's sixth week of airing! See ↓↓ from here: Twitter Link
In my personal opinion, that's looking good. It's also interesting to compare OPLA's streaming stats week by week compared to several other shows in the top 10 (but in saying that... I haven't had time to do a full comparison, just bits here and there, so I can't say anything for sure...still, it's very interesting to look at!! And considering, I usually don't have the time or effort to follow any other show in such detail... but One Piece has such a special place in my heart!)
I finally am back round with screenshots from Episode 6 - and my thoughts on the episode. I also really loved this episode, the cast has so many good moments, and I love how we see the crew bond and develop through one of the biggest trials of the Straw Hat pirates friendship.
Highlights of Ep 6:
Do you know how much I love these sets? Why sometimes I love live action? Because we get to see even more sides to the manga panels, to the anime scenes that probably weren’t important or thought about at the time. For example, I love that we get to see more of the inside of the Going Merry (we do see this in the manga, but there's something more intricate and detailed about the live action's adaptation)
The interactions between Koby and Garp. The more times I re-watch OPLA, the more I like these interactions. I like them because we get to see Koby develop and how Garp becomes his and Helmeppo's mentor (something we only see in cover stories in OP, before their big appearance at the end of a specific arc, where the Koby and Helmoppo have clearly grown up.)
The interaction between Garp and Mihawk. This is OP only, and we see a different kind of Warlord/Marine interaction past the East Blue Saga in the One Piece Manga. I liked that this was introduced in OPLA season 1, it does so many wonderful things like, give us more Mihawk time (those who know, know how rare he is in the manga, but beloved despite those rare appearances), show us more of how the Warlord system works/or does work, and of course hammers in other plot points for OPLA. (Also, Steven John Ward is such a magnificent Mihawk.)
The interaction between Sanji, Usopp, and Luffy. When Luffy speaks of Wado Ichimonji, and pronounces the name completely wrong in a very Luffy way, sometimes I ask myself, do I love this line in OPLA because I know it’s a very Luffy trait from the manga, or do I love it because Inaki delivers this line so well?
This episode gives us more wonderful expressions from the cast. Taz is such a fantastic Sanji and Jacob is pretty good as Usopp. They're both great in this episode. I've heard some people complain that Usopp and Sanji were done a bit dirty in season 1, but truthfully, I have high hopes that the showrunners will give them more space for development in season 2 now that they've been introduced. If you squash everything into season 1, that only leaves less space for character development on screen later on. So I'm looking forward to seeing OPLA develop some of our favourite OP characters in their way, but faithful to Oda's vision.
I love how they did Sanji's backstory. They did not skimp on the truth behind Zeff's leg, which the anime does, and the manga is a little more brutal on.
You know, sometimes I had my doubts, before OPLA was released, on whether Craig Fairbrass would make a good Zeff. There were so many white actors and I like hmmm. But, damn it all, he’s perfect. He brings Zeff alive with so much zest and flavour. Both in present and the past flashbacks. It was wonderful. (Also, it does make me laugh every time I see his braided mustache jumping when he speaks, love it.)
Christian Convery is also fantastic as young Sanji. He acts wonderfully. He's like a little angelic cherub, and thus for the extended starvation period, he was a little too fleshy, however, this is a child (and we can't ask him to starve just for acting at his age, and for something like this in a tv series, I'd much rather the vfx went to the bigger elements, like Buggy's devil fruit powers, Luffy's devil fruit powers, the Sea King, etc.), and his acting still managed to convince me that he had been starving for days.
And as usual, I can't fit all the screenshots here ... see Part 2: Here, and Part 3: Here.

taz november celebration fic 5: prompt soft
it was pretty obvious to me what i had to do with this one, so enjoy your beef, everybody! ~650 words, tw car crash mention, steeplechase ep 10/11 spoilers @taznovembercelebration
The heist of the Clean and the explosive car chase through Gutter City left every member of Poppy's Pals traumatized. Emerich was haunted by what he had done to a hardlight construct, Montrose got a taste for danger and became reckless, and Beef started second guessing what they were doing after truly ending up in harm's way, developing a soft side. Once Sticky Fingers Paul Pantry paid the crew, Montrose pulled Emerich into the back to try and pull him out of his depressed state, leaving Beef on his own. He sank to the floor in front of one of the brightly colored and flashing arcade machines, crossing his muscular arms on top of his knees and laying his head down on them. The sound of footsteps approached, but without even looking up, he said, "Fuck off, Poppy," sounding more tired than mad, and they retreated again. God, what happened here? He was Beef Punchley, sure, past his prime, but still Beef Punchley nonetheless. Why was he scared all of a sudden? How did this get to be too much so fast? Somehow, it now seemed like Montrose was the strong one, thriving off of danger and being in high-adrenaline situations. Beef's physical strength was no longer going to cut it. He ran his fingers across the sleeve of tattoos on each of his arms. Their familiar designs and colors somehow seemed strange now. The heist had been a success, they got the prism of the Clean back to Sticky Fingers Paul Pantry and out of being blackmailed, but he personally still felt like a failure. In his career, he had never second guessed himself. He had always wanted to be a professional arm wrestler, and of course working for Dentonic in Ustaben wasn't his first choice after the scandal, but it never felt wrong. Until now, that was, but the problem was the heists. If he could stop being a criminal and just go back to the regular old routine at Poppy's Place, that would be fine by him, but he had a sinking feeling in his stomach that it was too late for that. He inhaled deeply, clenched all his muscles, exhaled, and relaxed them. That was enough spiraling, he trusted Emerich and Montrose and they'd find a way forward somehow. Beef got up, stretched, and headed for the Buttercream; he had something in mind he'd love to win somehow and share with the other two. Later that evening, he knocked on the door of the back room. "Go away, Poppy!" Montrose called. Beef laughed and replied, "Don't worry, it's me." The door opened and he saw Montrose standing there, still not changed out of his coat that got burned in the car chase, and Emerich dozing on one of the chairs. He revealed the bottle of bourbon (that he had won, and at a game he never played before, too!) from behind his back. "I figured we could all use a drink after everything that went down earlier." Hearing another voice, Emerich awoke with a start, but relaxed seeing it was just Beef. After talking with Montrose and getting a chance to rest, he looked a little bit less like a ghost. Montrose was still focused on the bottle, his mask displaying a mildly surprised expression. "Beef, where did you find this? It looks like part of the commemorative park anniversary batch from five years ago." "I didn't think we were in the habit of asking each other questions, Montrose. Unless you want to start answering them?" he replied teasingly. "Touché." They all laughed and sat down to share a well earned drink together. There wasn't exactly a lot of time in the lives of professional thieves to process trauma, but a couple shots with their friends? That they could do, no matter how haunted, reckless, or soft.

January Wrap-up 🩵 | 2024
well, i did end up reading some of the books i posted on my tbr list, and i consider that a success!!
Books:
Daughter of the Moon Goddess: 4.5/5 🌟
this coulda been a perfect five star read, but the flippty-flip-floppity between the boys till the last page was too much for me, so i deducted a half star!! still, this was a great read!
Check & Mate: 3.5/5 🌟
read my review in the post below!!
Komi Can’t Communicate (Vol. 19): 3.5/5 🌟
again, i live, love, laugh komi, rumiko, and tadano!
Fixed on You: 4/5 🌟
this was my first reread of the year, and the first time i reread this book since 2014. i was pleasantly impressed by the fact that it stood the test of time and my vastly different reading taste!
Squire: 3.5/5 🌟
i loved everything about this book: the art style, the story, the characters!! i especially loved the fact that the authors decided to explore a story inspired by ottoman ruled levant as that’s a period we don’t have many stories from!
With the Fire on High: 4/5 🌟
what can i say? i’ll read anything acevedo writes, narrates!!! 😍
Between the Lines: Facial Tattoos and the Chaouia: 4/5 🌟
this didn’t offer me any new information as i am a chaouia and my nan has similar tattoos to the women featured in the article. however, it is a very informative and short read if you’re uneducated on facial tattooing practices by the indigenous people of north africa!

I aadore taz graduation! It takes a little bit to pick up. I'd say it gets settled into itself starting ep 10 in the centaur camp.
The characters are just excellent. Fitzroy just barely edges out the others as my favorite, but the Firbolg and Argo are wonderful.
Story structure-wise, it is a less tight, structured story than the other arcs. But once the ride starts, it is very, very fun. The only story with a similar structure I can think of is the very fun buddy comedy Midnight Ride. At every twist and turn, who is an enemy and who is an ally, what is being protected and what's being destroyed, will swap, and boy is it a great time.
It is worth noting that taz graduation is 30-something episodes in comparison to, say, balance's 69 episodes. The end of graduation is the equivalent of the crystal kingdom, in regards to time. Graduation is not balance, but I think people forget the scale difference between balance and the other campaigns.
The only thing I properly disliked in the campaign was the finale, which I felt didn't sync up well with some of what had been established, but was still enjoyable to listen to.
Some graduation things I enjoy in no particular order:
The characters. Everyone shows up fully fleshed out personality-wise, but their relationship and goals grow so much.
They are, all three combined, one (1) hero.
Chaos stands at nine feet tall, white eyes, opalescent skin, all curves, and moves like water. Coolest character description in all of TAZ for me.
One of their classmates is a necromancer with a dancing squirrel skeleton, and her dad is a lich king and all around cool dude (possibly Barry and Lup's son)
Fitzroy turns into a potted plant. He had SAP.
Argo really holds a perfect line between being a rogue out for revenge and being a sweetie who's full of love. All he eats is citrus.
The firfolg has a new clan. It's small. There are only three of them. FOUND FAMILY.
Fitzroy. He likes sweet crepes. He's a failure. He wants to be on the cover of boy cloaks magazine. He's in it for the diploma. He's gonna save the world.
They sue a beast at one point and win.
Justin McElroy enters the canon universe.
Literally just typing this out, I am grinning and two seconds away from relistening.
There is a game-shaking haircut.
Truly, listening to this campaign made me happy. I just enjoyed myself the whole time and started a relisten when I was having a rough time.
They are the Thundermen LLC. They even have a THEME SONG. (here comes the storm here comes the Storm!)
"YOU'RE BROTHER'S THE DOG-- I WAS GOOFING!"
"Murder! There's a reason people do it!"
(regarding accounting) "THERE IS A CLANGING."
Please listen to tax graduation. I love it dearly.
does anyone enjoy TAZ Graduation? It seems to have been universally disliked, but surely nothing is universally disliked? Travis does at the outset seem a bit monologue-y as a DM and again I’ve heard that doesn’t go away, but I’m a completionist and the premise is delightful.
this is not a bit! if you’ve enjoyed the season please tell me about it!
there’s fanart in the tag and some genuine enthusiasm, so perhaps I will give it a shot

clint mcelroy creating a dnd character: oh yeah, this bad boy can fit so much simple zest for life in him
#eliot posts#taz#the adventure zone#merle highchurch#zoox anthellae#ive not listened to graduation yet (and idk if i ever will) so idk if this applies to argo or not#i remember so little of amnesty and am only 10 eps into steeplechase so i can't speak for the non dnd campaigns either#it's funny how a lot of people's ttrpg characters often have common themes in them#me and my friend john from our irl dnd group were talking about that and it's like#alicia plays the most Friend Shaped girls imaginable. caleb's Cause Problems On Purpose. julia's are sassy and tend to do their own thing#john's are edgy in theory but extremely friend shaped and caring in practice. and i tend to play The Mom Friend.#not ALWAYS but pretty often. and basically always they're just really looking for human connection (whether they know/accept it or not)#even my goddamned PISS WIZARD is quickly careening towards mom friend territory??? somehow???#very few people tolerate him so he's protective of those who do. even if it's mostly just a coworkers situation in the party#and most of the party is So Fucking Stupid#it's a very hilarious party composition overall. just 5 guys all thinking ''wow. what a bunch of freaks. good thing i'm normal :)''#and the only one who is REMOTELY accurate in that assessment is the cleric whose catchphrase has quickly become#''hey. don't look at me. i just work with them.''

I'm bored on a Friday night so why not answer all these!! (It's a later date) (also I know actual plays aren't technically audio dramas, but for the sake of me being the person to answer this, they are) (think of it as just "podcasts"
1. What's the first audio drama you ever listened to? The Adventure Zone: Balance
2. What's a song you associate really strongly with a specific show? "Long Live" by Taylor Swift for Rusty Quill Gaming (thanks Bryn)
3. State some things you'd like to hear in the next show you listen to and let your follower recommend things to you. I'm not gonna do this cause most of my followers have suggested shows and I have a list a mile long.
4. What's your favorite completed show? Probably TAZ:B or TAZ:A (Amnesty)
5. Name a trope you like that's specific to audio drama. Not sure if it counts as a trope, but good sound effects.
6. What's your favourite audio drama ship? Tough one. Taako and Kravitz, Aubrey and Danny, and Zolf and Wilde.
7. What's your favorite piece of music from any show? Anything written by Griffin for TAZ and also "The Lament of the Phoenix" from The Amelia Project.
8. If you could have a crossover between any two shows, which would it be? I think The Amelia Project and TAZ Amnesty would be fun! Imagine the chaos.
9. What's your favorite character dynamic to write/listen to? Banter hands down. I love listening to and writing witty remarks.
10. Recommend a show! GIRL IN SPACE ONG PLEASE GO LISTEN TO IT. @girlinspacepodcast
11. What are you currently listening to? I'm currently listening to The Amelia Project and Dimension 20 Fantasy High S1.
12. If you could adapt any public domain work into an audio drama, what would it be? Hmmmm as much as I wasn't a huge fan of the book, I think Frankenstein would make for a fun podcast.
13. [ASKER CHOICE PODCAST] TV show fancast (funny or serious). I'm terrible at fancasts. The only thing I can picture is Alan Burgen playing his own character from Amelia.
14. Which audio drama would you most want to live in? Oh now that's tough, probably one lf the TAZ worlds.
15. Uno reverse! What's a question YOU want to ask everyone else about audio drama? What/who got you into them? For me it was my best friend who started TAZ on a whim and cackled as I caught up to them.
16. What's a role you heard an actor in, but almost didn't recognize them? Alan Burgen. I heard him first in @thekilda and heard him second in Amelia. Took an entire season for me to realize. (even though both shows list credits at the end of each ep)
17. Top fics [ASKED CHOOSES TOPIC] in audio drama. I'm gonna do top five finales.
1. TAZ Balance
2. TAZ Amnesty
3. S4 The Amelia Project
4. S4 The Magnus Archives
5. S3 Rusty Quill Gaming
18. Design an outfit for [ASKER CHOOSES CHARACTER]. I'm doing Alvina from Amelia. I think she would be dressed sensibly but comfortably. Jeans, t-shirt, sturdy shoes, that sort of thing.
19. Which podcast do you think would make a great TTRPG book? Amelia! Having to work out how to come up with elaborate schemes to fake deaths? So fun!
20. Which podcast character do you think would have their own podcast in an AU? Alvina again. She seems the industrious type. They're a lot of work!
21. Favorite audio drama sphere meme? Hands down the "no beta we kayak like Tim" AO3 tag.
22. Which episode of an audio drama do you think you've listened to the most? Hard to say since I don't really do individual eps on their own. I do full relistens. Probably the middle of RQG.
23. Why do you like audio drama as a medium? Because it's completely accessable to me (I know not to everyone and I'll bang pots and pans for propper transcripts right along side you)
24. What show are you most looking forward to that isn't out yet? I don't have one currently. I've dropped off the audio drama sphere a bit. I will say I'm looking forward to the rest of Amelia!!
If you made it this far, thanks for humoring me!
