sis have you seen the new fantasy high ro and if so pls share your blessed thoughts with us
*dishing with demon spoilers*
Siobhan casting ray of sickness on the DM and, later, Adaine having to quickly clarify that she didn’t cast ray of sickness on Kristen when she was existential crisis barfing. 
No one can say “lunch lad” without breaking composure immediately. 
Riz trying to confer with the rat. AND THEN IT WORKED LATER. WHAT.
“Mr. The Insatiable”
“You were the angel of eating the right amount of food?”
I love Gorthalax. He’s so well spoken and awkward but also really frank and earnest. That whole conversation was gold.
Everyone trying to hardline veto Kristen becoming a warlock. Also I checked and warlocks don’t have healing spells which, for this mishap prone group, is, uh, not good. 
“Is he my dad?” is becoming my favorite running joke.
Oh thank Sol, Gorgug went to heaven. Sucky orc heaven, but I knew he was a good boy.
If there are multiple heavens and hells, which one do you go to if you don’t actively worship a specific god?
“Your dad is a demon.” “Uh, your dad is a pirate and we’re not rude about that.” “Um, actually, he’s a privateer” “MMM.”
I love that it took them like a solid 5 minutes to make the connection from, “The portal needs a direct connection to Sol” to “Maybe they were trying to make Kristen the portal” because that conversation was all over the place. 
Gorgug acting like for even a second he knew what perditional condradoxy meant. 
Why is this show so rat focussed? 
Adaine, who has only ever eaten fancy food up until a month ago: Only being able to grant ice cream wishes is a bad thing????
Ally going all shocked disbelief when Fig wanted to disguise herself as a pre-med student as if they weren’t just suggesting Kristen join  TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. 
That being said, WHAT? FIG WHAT?
“Roll opposed athletics to medically fight the sand demon”
GUN DOCTOR RIZ
And then it just turns into an episode of GREY’S FREAKING ANATOMY (which is a show that must be amazing in a setting like this btw. Like, how do you jump the shark in a world where ice cream genies are a thing?)
This is Fig’s second fake job now that I think about it. She also rolled really well to be a fake bouncer. Wait, Jawbone works at their school now so he has to know she was lying, right?
Anyway, that was peak bard. 
Man, Brennan is such a good DM. I don’t think I ever would have let that nonsense sequence happen in my game but it was so freaking good. 
Adaine using mage hand to rig heads or tails with Fabian and Gorgug. She’s my favorite.  
Fabian, the same day they had a huge battle with MIDDLE SCHOOL KIDS: We dont fight children. Don’t you though?
“No I never get what I want.”/”I often get what I want and I’m very satisfied” Tag yourself. 
Adaine being proud of figuring out the bus system. I feel like I wrote that. Also, I just moved to NY and same girl.
Jawbone being a great counselor is 100% funnier than him being an incompetent one like I would have assumed.
Good on Adaine for doing an arcana check on her gift because that whole sequence threw up trap alarm bells in my head. (Did they even tell Gorthalax about the tin flower? And I feel like he should hate rubies at this point, not be giving his daughter a Ruby guitar pick).
Oh, btw, I loved all the stuff with Fig and her dad. Emily roleplayed that so sincerely (when she wasn’t messing around). I especially liked the part before he left when she was lie, “Why didn’t you have someone come get me?”
THE INITIALS T.B. ON THE FRONT. The realization dawning on Murph’s face was incredible. 
“Huge bird tits” EMILY. MIDDLE NAME. AXFORD. STOP DESCRIBING SEXY ANIMALS.
This group is so bad at tag team lying. From a meta game standpoint, they players are super good at RPing but they choose to RP people who are just so bad at improv. Especially Emily. What an agent of chaos. 
Adaine just cutting through the nonsense and casting friend on Skarnk.
 Was Brennan a psych major or something? I feel like we keep getting taken on these journeys through the human (you know what I mean) mind. (That whole sequence with Shellford was so depressing).
It must be so weird to live in a world where at 14 year old can potentially know a spell that lets the read your thoughts.
OK so Kristen. My question is, did Brennan and the group know how far Ally was gonna go with her? Because the entire group always seems hysterically caught off guard by every crazy thing that comes out of Ally’s mouth, but like as themselves, not just as their characters. 
Man I hope Ally’s childhood wasn’t as dramatic as Kristen’s.
Kristen: Do you guys mind spitting up? Famous last words, girl.
“Praise Helio, we’ve got to go.”
Emily goading Ally into making another truly terrible speech.
Gorgug insisting on always standing in front of everyone.
DAYBREAK. I knew that guy was a dick but I didn’t think he was actively end the world evil. So that’s gonna be wild.
