i will say kipperlilly’s rage at riz specifically for having an unfair advantage in his dad’s tragic murder when riz has been practically killing himself all year bc they are a single parent low income household and won’t be able to afford uni without a scholarship precisely because his dad’s tragic murder isn’t accounted for is just,,,, oh boy

adaine truly carried this fight like?? helping gorgug with a save, getting fabian out of his first grapple, moving most of the kids & the proctor out of danger using the scatter spell, giving fig a crit with her smite, planting the mephits as little dust bombs to blind monsters, using bigby’s hand to do over 100 damage to the purple worm. i hope she absolutely rocks oisin’s shit next time she sees him

no because this line paired with the straight face killed me but also reads like a teenager trying to hide their excitement over the prospect of sharing her space with 15 cats

At first Fabian refuses to interact with his and Fig’s new sibling but one day his mom is dealing with something in the other room and the baby is crying and so Fabian has to pick up the baby. So he picks up the baby, bouncing them gently, and says, “One day, eighteen years from now, I will fight you to the death.” Then the baby reaches up and curls their little hand around his finger and Fabian’s voice breaks, utterly in love with this tiny person, and says, “I will defeat you,” unconvincingly.

i love the preview for next weeks fhjy episode it was so funny but i especially love fig's response to why she's fireproof. brings up nothing of her demonic heritage, only her girlfriend, of which she was most certainly fireproof before meeting. she makes it sound like she somehow BECAME fireproof for her hot phoenix babe girlfriend. like oh so ayda is on fire? better become immune so we can kiss. kristen is about to get out lesbian'd, beat at her own game by a bisexual (the game is loving women)

imagine being a teenager and moving to a new city and a new school and you're invited to join an adventuring party before you even get there and maybe that adventuring party goes about things a little differently than you expect and maybe you haven't really had any luck being helio's chosen back to the church but your grandfather is teaching there now and you have friends and your life is going pretty well.

and then you're assisting during the last stand and kristen applebees is paying more attention to you than the monsters and before you can wonder why, you're dead.

kristen applebees is alive and you're dead and kristen applebees is the chosen one and you aren't and she brought back the sun and and your family couldn't and she won't come back to the flock and isn't that just so unfair?

wouldn't that just make you so angry?

the teacher evaluations are absolutely priceless. Teacher evaluations appreciation post.

"Attractive bard teacher I can't remember her name."

Fig intimidating Riz into giving Eugenia all fives and him saying "Good at rogue stuff but the double fisting cigarettes was a bit much."

Fig making Porter and Zara share a form but giving Lucilla her own and Porter getting SO incensed about it.

"After all these years, still not sure if Porter is secretly evil, but smiting is so sick."

"Yeah yeah, stabby stabby" for Corsica Jones

"Strongly disagree that teacher prepared for class, but this is the way of dance. Dance is present. Dance is now. [...] Also, again, I'm so sorry. Please let me buy you a new shirt."

"Liar, frumpy, wrong."

So, I know people are really desperate for Sandra Lynn to have hooked up with Pamela Dawn instead of Bobby Dawn, and I completely understand that!* Bobby Dawn is slimy and awful and we don't know much about Pamela, so maybe she's better? But it is 100% Bobby Dawn for two very clear reasons:

Sklonda literally said it was him

Bobby Dawn has always been a predator

The first thing we learn about Sandra Lynn's affair during Spring Break Sophomore Year was that she had just left Aguefort (she dropped out her senior year and got a diploma later on) and she was very young. She was asked to join an established adventuring party of people who were older than her and that had lost one of its members. She fell in love with another member of the party that was already in a relationship, they had an affair, and then when the affair was discovered, Sandra Lynn was blamed, kicked out of the party, and her name was smeared as far and wide as possible by the person who had taken advantage of her so that person could absolve themselves, likely in the eyes of their partner and the party.

So what we can immediately deduce from this is that Sandra Lynn was an outsider to her new adventuring party, likely looked down on as "just a kid", maybe disdained for being a dropout, and most definitely resented for taking the place of the (presumably) dead party member. She was in actively dangerous and stressful situations while questing with the party and she probably had little support from the group during that time.

Sandra Lynn was very very vulnerable.

When he met Sandra Lynn, Bobby Dawn would have been about 20 years younger than he is now, likely in his late 30s/early 40s.** Probably still handsome, still a "dashing" active adventurer. He was married to Pamela already (not just in an established relationship), since he had a child by then that was close to grown and I don't think the Church of Sol would be very happy about a child out of wedlock. He would have been a cleric of Sol and probably still preaching "the good word of Sol" but it likely wouldn't have been constant. You can't give sermons while fighting monsters. I'm sure he even saved Sandra Lynn's life a few times!

The thing about Bobby Dawn being a televangelist now, but not then, is that when he was young, he was probably just as good at persuasion, at finding vulnerable people and exploiting their weaknesses to get what he wanted, and yet he hadn't made a name for himself as a televangelist, so people wouldn't know to be wary of him trying to convert or manipulate them.

The scene between Bobby and Kristen, when Kristen is pretending that Cassandra died shows exactly what kind of terrible person Bobby really is. He is happy to find Kristen devastated, that she is having "a real dark night of the soul" and needs guidance. He refuses to help Kristen stay at Aguefort (something that's within his power), despite knowing how beneficial that would be to her well-being, because that goes against his own goals. He is smug and condescending and cruel. He is preying on Kristen's devastation and vulnerability (not knowing it's an act), to draw her back into the fold of the Church of Helio/Sol.

The person who did that to Kristen, is the exact same person who took advantage of Sandra Lynn when she was still basically a kid, just out of high school. He took advantage of her feelings for him, her inexperience and isolation. And then, when they were discovered, he threw her away and made her the villain so he could get away with it.

He ruined Sandra Lynn's life. Yes, she's happy now with her daughter, her partner, and the beautiful home they've made at Mordred Manor with Adaine, Kristen, Lydia, Ragh, Tracker, Zayn, Aelwyn, Boggy, and 15 cats. But Sandra Lynn ended up with self-esteem and relationship issues that she is still dealing with to this day. Those issues ruined her marriage, could have ruined her relationship with Jawbone, and likely played a hand in the difficulties between her and Fig in Freshman Year, as Sandra Lynn saw her daughter take her first steps into the world of adventuring.

Because Sandra Lynn first wanted to be an adventurer and Bobby Dawn took that away from her, just like he tried to do to Kristen.

Bobby Dawn has shaped his career as a high priest of Sol and as a televangelist by portraying himself as the epitome of righteousness. He is rotten to the core, a predator in a job where he is meant to help people, and I CANNOT WAIT to see the Bad Kids take him down.

*I don't really understand it. Pamela Dawn is likely just as bad as Bobby. She's the chief paladin of the church of Sol, her husband is a televangelist and a High Priest of Sol, and she would have been around the same age as Bobby and having an affair with a vulnerable young girl who she then kicked out of the group and slandered. It being Pamela would still be awful!

**Even with the assumption that both Bobby Dawn and his child had their kids at a young age, the math still has to take into account that Sandra Lynn's daughter is the same age as Bobby Dawn's GRANDSON.

I noticed at the beginning of this season that they brought back the music they used during The Seven when they were in the Mountains of Chaos, and I *just this goddamn episode* realized that it was a meaningful choice. They’re so good at this.

Crack theory time

Tysm to u/No-One-7128 on the D20 subreddit for this beautiful idea. You deserve full credit.

CHUNGLEDOWN BIM HAS BEEN HIDING IN THE BARRELS FOR A WHOLE YEAR, JUST TO GET FABIAN. We know Brennan is a master of payoff, so this is plausible, at least somewhat

I guess you could say he's been here the whole time

[jellythegelatinoussword]

he’s just vibing in the time quangle

Daily reminder to you all that Sandra Lynn was a 17-18 year old highschool graduate manipulated by an older adventurer in a position of power over her. Something that left her with lasting trauma that heavily impacts her interpersonal relationships to this day. Bobby and/or Pamela are not an example of her "baffling taste" or of her "messiness" they are the direct cause of her trauma. Thank you.

*restraining the other contents of the episode in a closet behind me* haha anyway. Sandra Lynn and Sklonda are best friends you guys, they go out for drinks. She's told her about her tragic backstory. They talk about their kids. They're besties
