trackers speech about kristen simply having only to have had follow the path already laid out for her but her straying off that path to find her own meaning only to get stuck because she is unable to do the work properly because it's hard to build from nothing when there were elements of the structure you came from that really boosted you was tailor made for gifted kids that burned out and got stuck huh

Of COURSE Kristen--who is so scattered but an absolute rock where it counts, who described her role in the family vis a vis her brothers as being "like a shield", who gave Lydia the Help action without thinking to ease her years long, chronic curse just a little bit--rolled a Nat 20 to fully remove the curse at the first opportunity. Of course she did. This was never gonna go any other way.

There are so many things to unpack from last nights episode of Fantasy High Junior Year.
The blaring fact that Fig was right about Porter being an evil guy.
Porter was grooming the Rat Grinders, particularly Kipperlily Kopperkettle, which I have thoughts about.
Oisin and Ivy are massive dickheads, and they are totally the messy ones in the group.
Fig and Porter are semi-parallel in their actions, utilizing psychological warfare and simultaneously playing each other, which I also have many thoughts about.
Fig inadvertently confirmed that Zara was talking about Fig's shit to Porter. Also, there is this constant laying trap for each other, tying into my previous note about their behavior.
The fact that Fabian never hired a maid, and in doing so, made it possible for Oisin to play them for fucking fools.
Bucky, the sweet, adorable boy, needs a reprieve from his family and his church to flesh out his relationship with divinity.
Porter and his relationship to others, particularly vulnerable girls like Kipperlily and Fig, and trying to use that against them.
Ruben being scared.
Buddy being tricked.
A child might have to die because an adult is selfish and ambitious.
Jace Stardiamond and Porter being in cahoots, maybe in a relationship, maybe by force? This gives Jasper and Lapis vibes.
Fucking Bobby dawn doing the same thing his fucking predecessors did to Ankarna, with Porter, by suggesting the devils honey.
Fucking Bobby Dawn in fucking general being so piece of shit, also Kristen giving him a lead that they are working on this shit is so funny.
Porter, and gods can I rip into him, using his juiced-up ass power against Fig, while Kipperlily watches.

here you go, here's just an outrageously high definition My Clerical Gnomance logo for all you freaks out there. also here's a dropbox link to it.
shoutout to Raven Blackhardt who made the font The Chemical Parade, available for free online at this link. (I'm like 99% sure that's what the folks at D20 used, too.)

Time moves forward and only forward, relentless. Didn’t you learn last time? You can’t make it stop.
And when it has gone past, a sequel to Over & Through. Coming December 26-31.

I'm like genuinely interested as someone who thinks a lot about the craft of critique and fandoms the ways in which the current Rat Grinders discourse shows why you can't really apply the same lens you use to critique a pre written story vs an improvised actual play show by a bunch of comedians who are first and foremost concerned with committing to the bit. Like Porter's a great example of this, he went from a nothingburher to secretly evil with a whole lore and backstory!
In the same vein the Rat Grinders probably could have turned out to be not as culpable in all of this had the Bad Kids really tried to bond with them, but instead they focused on other things with the way downtime was structured! And because they did that they could pass the Last Stand, and are safe from Porter's rage thing! Like legitimately I really liked the mechanics of downtime this season, it just also came at the cost of developing the Rat Grinders!
(Though to be entirely fair, the BKs did try to engage with Oisin, Ivy, and Ruben and then Oisin launched the house, Ivy was racist, and Ruben still attacked Wanda so)
I think it's really fascinating from a storytelling/game design perspective! The downside is the Discourse is so tiring
Yeah it's interesting. I covered some of this in other asks so I'm gonna hit on the stuff I haven't yet.
If you're telling a story that is based partially on user input, it's not entirely fair to be like, "This subplot was underdeveloped" if the reason for that was that the players didn't make choices to facilitate that development. When DM's push hard for the players to care about things they're not interested in, they get hit with railroading accusations.
And even outside of the player choices, there are also the rolls. A BIG part of D&D is the randomness of the dice. Even if the players care about something, it doesn't mean they'll get it. I'll mention again that Kristen tried to roll Insight on Buddy before the final fight and got a Nat 1. What is she supposed to do? Roll again until she gets a good read on him? That's not how that works. If the dice aren't cooperating, there's not much you can do. And you can make sure your big story beats don't rely on dice but at the end of the day they *will* shape your story in ways you can't control.
Another key thing about the medium, as you pointed out, is things can change on the fly. The confluence of high rolls and serious interest can change things that were behind the screen canon in an instant. In Burrow's End, Aabria planned for Bennet to have a family but as soon as Tula/Brennan expressed interest in romancing him, she Thanos snapped that family out of existence. I don't know how much Brennan wanted the Rat Grinders to be recruitable but even if he'd planned them all to just be foils and evil and nothing else, I can totally see him flipping one if they'd really wanted to and it would have made for a good story beat.
Anyway, yeah! Interesting stuff to think about. Even though D20 often feels like a TV show, it's important to remember that it's a different beast in many ways.

Gorgug omg. I literally screamed, "Cloaca!" In complete and utter disbelief.
Followed by the Thistlesprings pulling a fucking binder out of the wall. The wall. I love them so much, that family is everything to me.
