“dnd exp leveling is dumb,” i say into the mic.
the crowd boos. i begin to walk off in shame, when a voice speaks and commands silence from the room.
"they’re right," it says. i look for the owner of the voice. there in the second row stands: brennan lee mulligan.

I would like to thank Elon Musk for breaking the stereotype that “high functioning” autistic people are geniuses, because he’s genuinely so fucking dumb I can hardly even fathom it.

imagine you're watching the bad kids, a group of adventurers the same year as you taking the last standard exam, a test no party has ever beaten, and theyre so close to acing it, theyve killed so many monsters already
and their cleric, the previous chosen of your helioic faith, who despite having a dead god has been healing and banishing and blessing and protecting their party from the horrors around them, pops up next to you
and you've been told by your party that theyre rule breakers, kids who can get away with anything, who dont care about school
but you ask kristen applebees, despite it all, if they're alright
and thats the last thing you say before you die

thinking about gorgug thistlespring, a barbarian half-orc raised by tinkerer gnomes, who tried to teach him that his anger was not a bad thing, that he was not a burden, that he should channel those negative emotions into something good and positive, like singing or making things, and so he did. he made friends, he learned the drums, he fought, he protected, he saved the world and met multiple who liked him for who he is.
thinking about gorgug thistlespring, a teenage boy with his first girlfriend, who was so devoted to protecting his friends that he made a mistake, he didn’t consider her feelings, so he fought so hard to make it right, he felt so guilty and so angry at himself so he built something just to be able to talk to her again. his parents taught him to channel his emotions and he realised he was just as good at creating as he was at raging. and even when the nightmare king’s forest threw his fears and insecurities in his face, he carried on, for his friends, because “its gorgug, keep going.”
thinking about gorgug thistlespring, an artificer-barbarian who figured out who he is, what he wanted, what he’s good at, who knows how to channel his anger into protecting and creating, to save the world and his friends, only to be told that he couldn’t do that, he couldn’t do what he wanted, his anger was for destruction, not for creating, not for putting his life on the line for his friends, that all the things his parents had taught him, all the things that he had learned while saving the world were wrong.
thinking about gorgug thistlespring.

I'm sorry I'm still not over Riz taking the High Fantasy Equivalent Of Speed except no one remembers he weighs 25 pounds soaking wet so instead of Calming The Hell Down like we all know in our heart of hearts Riz would do if he actually took properly dosed stimulants he just sprints through all 9 phases of hyperfocus and ascends to neurodivergent godhood and starts solving mysteries you've never heard of and then becomes paranoid that someone's gonna take his memories so he goes up to a pirate and asks them to tattoo his red string conspiracy board on his flesh

Something heartbreaking about Fabian’s worst fear in the nightmare forest is being forgotten and ignored by everyone he loves. To then come home after being away for 4 months to find his mom and step dad leaving for months without telling him. If he didn’t come home that night they most likely wouldn’t have told him at all maybe just left a note. His moms not even bothered to stay a full day after he comes home from being away for so long. I know elves live for thousands of years but Fabians got roughly 180 and he’s in some of the most vulnerable years of his life pay attention to him !!! stop forgetting him !!! stop reinforcing that his fear are valid and effectively true !! he’s worth caring about !!!
