HEY SAYER FANDOM (all 12 of us)

Which episode has the funeral for sgt. Squiddlesquirt

Im trying to. Check something

Y'know, there are so many people on this planet who never got to experience that episode of Drunks and Dragons (now Greetings Adventurers) where Mike Bachmann did the entire session from what seemed to be the middle of the woods as the sky slowly grew dark behind him, refusing to comment on it, let alone explain what was going on. I may have dreamt this

The back-into-it roundup, 11/2/23

There’s a wall that builds itself. It stands between me and my creative work. If I pass through it every day, I can knock it down a little with each trip—moving past it is never effortless, but the wall doesn’t have a chance to grow that much. If I don’t pass through for a while, the wall climbs and solidifies. Pushing past it gets harder the longer I wait. I shared that image, that metaphor,…

The 8 Geeklymon I created for the Geeklycon Art Challenge!

This is a kind of weird question, I know, especially because networks are fluid (I don't entirely know what they do besides advertising). Like, Adventures in New America and It Makes A Sound used to be part of Night Vale Presents, but now NVP seems to be nearly entirely made up of shows by the WtNV crew. Mischa Stanton helped found The Whisperforge, but now their podcasts aren't part of it. Meanwhile Hi Nay has recently joined Rusty Quill and its feed still works, but when Midst joined Critical Role they took down their feed and website and started new ones of both.

Reflecting on The Mirror Visitor series’ quotes of praise like

Book 1, on the back: “The Mirror Visitor now stands on the same shelf as Harry Potter.” -Elle

Me, knowing it’s post-Harry Potter: Oh no

Book 1’s jacket, left side: “A fantastical story of intrigue and suspense, A Winter’s Promise will find fans among readers of Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials series, Victoria Aveyard’s Red Omen, and N. K. Jemisin’s The Broken Earth series.”

Me, knowing just enough about His Dark Materials without having read it: Oh Goddammit

Book 2, praises and quotes page 2 just before the title page: “I loved A Winter’s Promise, which felt simultaneous fresh and also like a classic along the lines of Narnia.” -Geekly Inc.

Me: THOSE ARE NOT THE SAME THING AND IN FACT ARE ON OPPOSITE ENDS OF THE SPECTRUM (this better not be because Ophelia keeps coming out of Thorn’s closet wardrobe)

Me discovering Christelle Dabos describing Aunt Rosaline like she’s a redeemed yet still horse-faced Aunt Petunia, Thorn like a much taller Draco, and Ophelia like a nerdier, muffin-sized, aroace Harry: Don’t fuck this up, Dabos, DON’T FUCK THIS UP-

Ghost Station Review: In Space, No One Can Hear You Get Therapy

Ghost Station Review: In Space, No One Can Hear You Get Therapy

We love to see a good old fashioned space spook-em-up. It’s the foundation of many, many franchises across all types of media, and Ghost Station by S.A. Barnes draws from these predecessors while still managing to tread new ground in a skin-crawlingly fun way. As Geekly Inc.’s resident mystery lover (really I just love to …

Please listen to SAYER

It's basically this

[asalesbian]

it’s a kettle of nighthawks!

[ID: 4 digital drawings of versions of NightHawk from the podcast Cthulhu & Friends, each in a different colour. All NightHawks have dark skin and curly dark hair, have a bird drawn somewhere on their shirts, and are smiling and looking up. 1) In orange. NightHawk has short hair and is wearing glasses and a marching band uniform, with a sash and a plumed hat. 2) In purple. NightHawk has chin-length hair with a coloured streak, and is wearing heavy eyeliner and a T-shirt with the text “NightHawk & the Crows”. 3) In blue. NightHawk's hair is up in two buns, and she’s wearing glasses and suspenders, and a shirt with a bird logo. 4) In green. NightHawk has close-cropped hair, and is wearing scrubs and has a stetoscope slung around his neck. / End ID]

If you've never listened to Brute Force, the actual play fantasy tabletop game I run with some of my favorite people, here's a spoiler-free (and context-free) minute from the most recent episode featuring my best friend @mrunladylike doing what she does best: Hasseling an NPC.

The exact moment sayer decided to dibs Hale was in ep 42 when it asked if Hale was gonna question what Sayer was up to and Hale responded (silently) that he wasn't gonna

[ Sayer, after listing a bunch of possible qs:

"did you feel like asking any of these questions?

Is that what fun we'll have today?

. . . No?

Good."

and from that moment on Hale was screwed ]

Fanart for Drunks and Dragons yet AGAIN, this time for the character Yazdir, a polymorphed Silver Dragon that looks very anime when transformed.

Listen to the podcast. It’s good.

The all Leshy adventuring party for a Pathfinder game I played during the Geekly Inc charity live stream. Completely by accident, the characters we created each corresponded with a season of the year!

I finally caught up on Drunks and Dragons and I had to do a callback to episode 1 and the goof that sold me on the podcast.  If you haven’t listened, you should!
