#aabria literally said this in the tags of a post on tumblr

[excitedrainbow]

so so excited for Burrow’s End and so so frustrated with the biggest parasocial fans telling anyone who was discussing what other TTRPG systems could be used that they should never question the expert GMs, please just leave us to our (loving!) conversations!

there are always going to be dickheads who talk shit and rudely tag in the people/performers they’re referring to, but most of the time any fan critique or discussion I see of D20 comes out of being big fans of both the show and TTRPGs, is super respectful, and no one is tagging in anyone involved with the show. yeah some of us get tired of how often DnD is used in the recent games, because it isn’t always the best system for the story and there LOADS of other TTRPGs that would be cool to use!

for this season, most of the discussion went DnD???? Again???? > wait it looks like there’s a bunch of combat and monsters > probably not suited for Wanderhome/other suggested TTRPGs > what other animal TTRPGs could work > Aabria is an incredible GM and she’s worked with other systems before so her choice of DnD for this story is interesting, let’s see how this works out for the story > oooh this is what Aabria has said about using DnD, ok cool, can’t wait to be emotionally hurt im so tired of seeing a loud minority of people increasingly butting in on respectful conversations to say “they like DnD! they play however they want to! they’re the performers why do you question their choices?” Or “omg how dare you have the audacity to question them” or other bullshit like that. if all you want to do is never have conversations about TTRPGs or cast/GM choices etc. and never want to hear any respectful critique or discussion then I think your fandom experience is going to be poorer, but that’s your choice. you don’t have to start shit with other people just because you can’t stand that they’re lovingly but thoroughly discussing/critiquing this form of media and not putting the cast on pedestals. parasocial attachments to vaguely famous people aren’t new things but god they are getting worse and making the experience of fandom more awful

finding out the origin of Andhera's elemental shard makes them rubbing it with his "Time to be a big boy" hit like a gut punch oh my god how many times was that exact thing said when he had the audacity to Experience Emotions

The implication that at least Aabria, possibly others, went into this game with the impression that they might help start the Calamity themselves, is extremely funny and on brand

My #1 post of 2022

thinking about the white vault again and i'm just

not ever over the guardians' efforts to. understand the families? sympathize for them?

giving them back the literal hearts and teeth because the family wanted to hold their dead loved one in their hearts. wanted to see their smiles again.

and it's so fucked up and also the absolute best explanation we could have gotten for those boxes. the guardians might not be nice, far from it when it comes to the ones selected to be the sacrifices, but they're...kind of trying? they have their job and they acknowledge that it's hard on the ones left behind and they try to comfort them in the absolute worst way possible

and like someone on the discord server said. you look at the Svalbard site especially, with its staircase coated in teeth, leading down into the tunnels and caves and eventually the vault itself

perhaps you could even say the road to hell was literally paved with good intentions

Image description: The red buttons choice meme. It’s a two-panel comic. In the top panel are two red buttons, with a finger hovering over them. The first button is labeled as “going to therapy”. The second button is labeled as “Redeeming the lord of hells”. In the second panel, we see a person wiping sweap off their brow, obviously having a difficult time choosing. The person is labelled as “Zerxus”.

Based on something Aabria said in the post-finale chat the cast did on twitter (link).

how in the fuck do yall expect to get more queer content when every time a queer show or movie comes out you harass everyone involved like i dont give a shit how self-righteous you think you’re being by forcing this “queer content should be made by queer people” bullshit all you’re doing is fucking the whole community over. you’re literally harassing our own people and giving them reasons NOT to keep creating queer stuff

the more you harass creators and actors of queer content into coming out of the closet when they don’t want to, the less queer people are going to want to make queer things

you’re all fucking idiots on top of being giant assholes

yall remember that video where the actors who play Steve, Nancy and Jonathan are on an elevator, and Steve and Jonathan start making out?

That, but with Steve in the middle, and Nancy and Robin on each side deciding to make out with each other

My #1 post of 2022

nearly every sci-fi/fantasy piece of fiction involving immortals i’ve ever read: Immortality gets boring and/or downright miserable after a while. death is what gives life meaning :/

Hob Gadling: Immortality is the best fucking thing that’s ever happened to me. Am I miserable right now? Yeah sure. Am I gonna stay miserable? Fuck no. Immortality is fantastic baby
