#this is a dnd backstory

[moonbeamdagger]

heart. break.

She is a good mechanic, and she knows it. She prides herself on her ability to fix whatever may be broken, to mend what may be rent. Her strong arms can lift entire robots, and her deft fingers can find the smallest crack. With a murmured spell, or a twist of her wrench, or, when all else fails, simple duct tape, she will fix anything broken that may fall in her path.

Today, what has fallen in her path is a job. A wealthy temple from the Ivory Tower district, has sent a malfunctioning SecuriBot to be fixed. She does not know why she, a barely twenty-year-old mechanic, only the third- or fourth-best in the city, has been tasked with this, only that her knowledge of programming, and wires, and everything technological will come in handy

A spectral figure hovers over her right shoulder, offering comments that, though they are helpful, she will dismiss as unnecessary.

CUT THAT WIRE

He points to a green wire.

“Absolutely I will not,” she says. “You do not know what that does.” She swivels to face the monitor on her left displaying the bot’s memory files. She clicks on the latest one, hoping to find out something as to what may have damaged the bot. The video begins to play, but quickly dissolves into static and white noise. She frowns and hits a few keys, trying to restore the image.

WHAT DID YOU DO?

“Nothing! Stupid ebanyj SecBot is not durable for to remember damage. I will have to see if memories are encoded.”

AND IF THEY ARE NOT?

“Then we run systems check until something turns up.”

WE? “Well, if you’re going to be here, you might as well be useful and not just annoying, yes?”

I AM BEING USEFUL. I AM THE SOURCE OF YOUR POWER.

“Oh, fignya, you’re the source of my power. My magic runs in my veins and I am plenty good mechanic without, thank you.”

YES BUT YOUR MAGIC IS IN YOUR VEINS BECAUSE OF ME.

“Then remove it, I don’t give a shit.”

I COULD.

“You won’t though.”

I COULD THOUGH.

“Mhm. Is what I thought.”

She brings up the base code for the bot, but before she finds what she was looking for, a folder appears, labeled é̵̛̯͍̥̜̑̇r̴̺̄̔̔r̷̨͖̙̬͎͍͊̅́o̸̮͆ȑ̷̢̡̛̻̬. Intrigued, she clicks. A prompt flashes on the screen, asking for a password. Bewildered, she turns to the god over her shoulder. And everything goes bright, then black. Her ears ring, then she hears nothing. And as her heart is pierced by flying shrapnel, pain explodes throughout her body

listen I expected literally Nothing from the D&D movie okay, like I can't make it clear enough that I expected the most soulless money grab with a good cgi budget imaginable, I went in having already gone through every stage of grief and landed on acceptance and LISTEN

I fucking CRIED during this dumb RPG movie. it wasn't just "not terrible" it was objectively good with a clever plot and compelling characters and sincere emotional beats. this movie loves D&D so fucking much and it NAILS the "a bunch of goobers try to be cool and accidentally discover The Power Of Friendship And Also Great Violence" classic D&D party vibe. their barbarian's last name is fucking Kilgore and my entire family cried in the theater.

I hope they make twelve of these motherfuckers.

Something fun to do when watching D&D Honor Among Thieves is randomly remember that in a very disconnected, fictional way, everything the characters are saying is improvised, and then realize how well it’s written with that in mind because everything from the random to-the-side dialogue to the big monologues DOES sound like something that would happen at your table and just. appreciate. how well this movie’s made.

I carried this thing for MONTHS with the EXPRESS PURPOSE of putting Raphael in it (knowing full well Larian wouldn't let me do that, mechanically) and I had one major miscalculation.
