every single time i look at older edition D&D rules (there are reasons this keeps coming up, mostly the original baldur's gate games), i end up deeply deeply tempted to write a fic of Ford and Dipper discussing what the fuck THAC0 is meant to do. I may put a scene into the timestuck fic (or possibly a mini-fic as an extra) of Dipper getting to complain about the horrors of early edition DD&MD design in order to vent my frustrations with fucking THAC0 and what the fuck nonsense math they thought they were doing back then.

#tagging this as #dipford #bc even though it's not like. explicitly shippy. i DO want them to make out about it.#ford tries to teach dipper the 2e thac0 rules and dipper calls the whole thing unnecessarily backwards and ford has to kiss him about it #bc he's RIGHT #code is nerdposting #<- introducing that tag as a counterpart to my hornyposting tag for when i am being a FUKCING NERD for no good reason <3
