head on the pillow i could feel you sneaking in. how evergreen our group of friends don’t think we’ll say that word again. my mind turns your life into folklore i can’t dare to dream about you anymore. you can run but only so far. i sit and watch you i notice everything you do or don’t do. but i ain’t letting up until the day he dies. after giving you the best i had tell me what to give after that. are you still the same soul i met under the bleachers. break my soul in two looking for you but you’re right here. i wish to know the fatal flaw that makes you long to be magnificently cursed. now you hang from my lips like the gardens of babylon. no more keeping score now i just keep you warm. should have kept every grocery store receipt cause every scrap of you would be taken from me. it cut deep to know you right to the bone. i had a feeling so peculiar this pain wouldn’t be forevermore. i’m right where you left me. he’s got my past frozen behind glass, but i’ve got me.

I cast a hex, sending a Catherine Wheel of sparks towards the roof.
Garnet is one of my favourite characters ever. I love how genuinely funny and outgoing yet level-headed she is. And how strong and dangerous she is when she needs to be. I can't wait to see how she starts acting as a fresh deputy.

Tried to listen to woe.begone but the premise is giving too much sword art online for me to take it seriously.
Please would you sell me on it?
Happily! I never got around to watching/reading Sword Art Online so I took a quick look at the plot and I think I know what you mean.
WOE.BEGONE the game is just the first step into the world of WOE.BEGONE the podcast. While it will always play a role of introducing Mikey to the world of time travel, it will not always be in the forefront of the podcast.
Dylan, the creator, is extremely good in shaking up the status quo from season to season. Season 2 is different than Season 1 and by the time you reach Season 5 and beyond, it's like you're in a whole other story (but it makes sense how the characters ended up where they did).
Although WOE.BEGONE the game does return to the story from time to time, Season 4, 7 and 10 have major callbacks to Season 1.
What sold me on the first season was Mikey, to be honest. I'm not big on life or death games, but having a protagonist who is such a fucked up little guy who schemes and lies and kills (while whining and simultaneously bragging about it) really charmed me.
I don't think WOE.BEGONE would've worked the same way if Mikey were a good person who had morals and standards or tried to be a hero in the story.
If you want to know what you have to look forward to in the podcast, here's a list of some of my favorite things about WOE.BEGONE
it becomes more and more about cowboys. It goes from random cowboy mention to "was this show ever NOT about cowboys??"
it's a show about power. Which Mikey goes on and on about in Season 1 yeah but it really becomes more prominent as the show progresses. Characters who seem reasonable and sensible are driven to make extreme choices for their own benefits and it inevitabley affects Mike in different ways
there's this villain (not the antagonist of season 1) who ends up becoming the Main Villain of the series. He's a complex character who can both be silly and terrifying, happily make puns mid-torture and risking the timeline to save someone in the next. He's extremely gay. And British. I hate him, he's caused me so much grief <3
There will be other Mikes. It's a time travel podcast, of course you will meet other Mike Walters who are not Mikey.
While at times these lead to silly and chaotic shenanigans, the relationship the main Mikes have to each other is my favorite thing in any podcast ever. Found family, but it's you, your older self, your older cowboy self, yourself at the same age but he's also a cowboy, yourself at the same age but he's chill, your older cowboy self but he's got a Giant Horse and your mysterious younger self who gets bullied by everyone else.
Plus with time travel duplicates of Mike, the topic of what it means to be yourself comes up a lot. Are you still you when you are in a different body from your own? It's fascinating and I don't think time travel stories talk about it enough.
The world of WOE.BEGONE is so much bigger than the characters in Season 1. It expands outwards until you have this crazy story about time travelers, assassins, fucked up twinks, government weapons, unethical science, bears, cowboys, and in the middle of it all is Mike Walters, a guy who found an ARG on Reddit and decided to play it on a whim.
