Ooowww, Zolf is pretty claustrophobic ... It makes so much more sense now that he didn't like the mining thing ... ouh, poor baby TT,TT

2021-03-29 19:26:33 +0000 UTCI've spent the last week working on a piece of fanart where Sumutnyerl is a bear going through the void, and the other pieces I've seen have her in human form, so hearing Alex specify still a bear was incredibly vindicating

2021-03-25 15:29:58 +0000 UTCBen also doing the deep voice was sooo amazing!!! I knew he could do it so when he did I was so happy!!

2021-03-24 02:58:42 +0000 UTCAnd there I was thinking they'd be reunited after this episode. I was so naive and I'll never underestimate Alex again. #irespecthiscraft On another note: why is the week between episodes always so loooooonnnnnnggggg. :(

2021-03-23 21:32:32 +0000 UTCWhat a BANGER of an episode once again. I ended up laughing a surprising amount for such an episode, but I did tear up again (Hamid and Azizaaaaa!!!!!). This was so, so good, characters-wise, so satisfying to get the culmination of things that have been building up or that we saw characters go through throughout the show, or to finally discover how they feel about things we'd only gathered bits and pieces of. However I have to admit I am once again staring through time and space at Alex and Ben because they've both totally forgotten about Wilde's kid leash again huh

2021-03-23 18:57:33 +0000 UTCGiven the prevalence of cosmic tentacles these last few eps, I daresay we respect his (Love)craft.

2021-03-23 18:39:34 +0000 UTCThe real victim here is clearly the tentacle monster, having to yeet away its tasty treats so it can blow on its scorched suckers. Poor thing.

2021-03-23 17:10:29 +0000 UTCvery proud of everyone for not falling for Trauma Tentacle Boss's guilt tripping but alex you HAVE to stop ending episodes like this, it's bad for my health
Lena
2021-03-23 17:04:34 +0000 UTCSurprisingly this was more uplifting than utterly terrifying. Thanks for that! I care all the PCs so very much. You guys got this.
