It's funny as hell, but also...👀

It's been said before, but goddammit I love the material components for spells in D&D. They're so stupid.

Detect Thoughts requires a copper to cast. Gust of Wind needs beans. Sunbeam requires a magnifying glass. Passwall uses sesame seeds.

Darkvision needs fucking. Carrots.

As a rule of thumb I tend to use the translated or localized name of a title based on how well it rolls off the tongue or how good it sounds, so I hope everyone understands when I vehemently refuse to call it “Delicious in Dungeon”.

“I don’t understand why you’re so adamant on asking me this, Hal. I just mentioned to Barry that I talked with the head Easter Bunny once and now everyone keeps asking me if I think the Easter Bunny is real! Why do people keep asking me? I’ve met them. I don’t understand why I have to ‘believe’ in the Easter Bunny for them to be real! They exist!”

Hal put his hands up and stepped back, clearly not expecting the frustrated and somewhat hostile response of Billy who slumped back into his seat, which was slightly less satisfying in his bulkier body, and began running his hands through his hair.

The repetition of being interrogated over a simple comment was not only bewildering but had gotten increasingly more annoying to answer as somehow the members of The Justice League, the literal most powerful group of people on earth, didn’t seem to understand a piece of basic knowledge.

Billy was not only very tired of being asked the same thing but even more-so he wanted the laughing at his ordinary response to stop.

He paused and looked Hal dead in the eyes then began to speak in the most dead tone Hal had ever heard from the usually cheerful man.

“Hal, I know the Easter Bunnies are real because I had to spend two, very long weeks personally overseeing the creation of their union that made sure they no longer routinely experience unsafe working conditions and helped establish 8 hour working days so they no longer get overworked or are required to do 80 hour weeks prepping for Easter and get punished for doing less or don’t get paid”,

Billy’s previously slow, blank tone grew more rushed and frustrated as he went on,

“I mean, I didn’t even do much other than sit there and look intimidating by throwing around lightning sometimes and make sure the Easter chicks didn’t do any funny business or tamper with the legal process!

It was in all the papers in Fawcett! I had my picture taken with them and everything. But Hal. I can guarantee you that the Easter Bunny exists. Please. Please stop fucking asking me.” Finally done, Billy slumped onto the table with a loud clunk.

Hal stood there shocked for a moment. “Marvel, did you just imply there’s multiple easter bunnies and they established a form of government?!”

Billy, with seemingly tremendous emotional effort, lifted his head from the table by a few inches and looked Hal in the eyes with a pleading tone, “If I just say no, will you please stop asking me?”

“Absolutely not, now I have even more questions”

Billy let his head fall back onto the table with an even louder clunk and groaned.

i like looking at jester rune next to traveling healer rune from a few years ago

both of them are assassins, but one is more successful than the other (it's the clown)

Not to go on and on about how much I adore the DnD movie BUT it was also so fantastic to see such ridiculous plans in action? Like I've seen so many campaigns feature shenanigans of the highest order, like real loony tunes meets rube goldberg machine level nonsense, and so seeing Holga pry up a loose flagstone to use as a weapon in a last-ditch effort not to die and the entire scene where they use tree sap, a portal staff, and a painting to break into the treasure carriage was SO beautiful like that's the EXACT sort of plan that comes up when you give four people with assorted skills and random magical items a few minutes to figure something out and it's FANTASTIC.

the problem is I’m such a staunch believer in the slow buildup, the earnest enjoyment of meandering through terrible story decisions and weird nothing subplots to build up into a conclusion that explodes out from all that as fantastic storytelling and intrigue based on all that buildup, such that it makes it necessary to get through all that or you’re missing something essential, that I’m also a terrible person to talk to about what makes a story good. I can tell you plenty of what actually makes something tight and well-written and all that technical speak but how could anyone take my advice when I so so so love excruciatingly long unnecessarily complex fumbling and weird nonsense that spirals into, inexplicably, weird nonsense that makes you cry your lungs sore

We all know that after dads, Murph's second most impactful NPC category is lesbians. So here's a poll for them.

P.S. Don't @ me about my choices here, narrowing the list down almost destroyed me

BG3 SPOILERS!!!

i saw a couple of ppl talking about how random it is for the nautiloid to have randomly infected the party of: a githyanki warrior, the duke's son, a magic prodigy/former chosen of mystra, a sharran cultist with a magic weapon, a vampire, etc.

but it WASNT random. the emperor infected your party deliberately we learn by the end of the game that when the brain loosened its leash on him he specifically went out of his way to find a group of people suitable to be allies. he'd be more inclined to infect a group like that as his adventurers than random commoners

am i making sense. ive been mulling about the emperor ever since i finished my first playthrough

😳👀

I committed sororicide and all I got was this stupid t-shirt.

oh are we doing fun au night? ok au where the land of jojo's bizarre universe is just like dnd for all the stats and mathy bits. Like they don't have the same races or class or magic or whatever, they all just have a page with all their stats and notable information and everyone has to roll dice for almost everything (except for this where you're so good at doing it there's virtually no way to mess it up, like ringing a doorbell or something) but anyway I just think it'd be funny that Jonathan rolls like a 19 on the killing blow for Dio but because it wasn't a perfect 20 he barely survives. Just a thought

SJRDBNVJDBFVDFBVD THIS REMINDS ME OF AN AU I MADE FOR A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SHOW WAY BACK WHEN

basically the way the AU went was that at birth, every single person in the world has a special set of dice. It's impossible to steal, destroy or lose them, and any attempt to do so will backfire horribly on the person who tries. The stats and modifiers you mentioned are invisible to everyone except the person they belong to, and dice rolls happen whether the person wants it to or not, but most people prefer rolling the dice themselves for some semblance of control

so some possible thoughts:

what if Jonathan did roll a Nat 20 but because of Dio's new Vampiric Modifiers he managed to just barely survive

in turn, during the Stardust fight, Jotaro then manages to just barely defeat Dio as a bit of fun irony

Joseph's That Guy who seems to be perpetually cursed with shitty rolls EXCEPT for when it actually matters and he randomly starts getting back to back Nat 20s

Pucci is arguably even more of a fanatic this time because the Dice are essentially a "physical" manifestation of Fate

God forbid a man has a hobby (<- Friederick, about to perform an autopsy on a guy)

As I have nothing better to do with my free time, a little digging and fiddling, for anyone who would find this useful:

Ai ármiel/arael - My heart

Neni/Nesni - Heart /possessive, belonging to me.
