com because Rachel Carr wrote vegan cookbooks and all my stuff is under r egar.
Don't forget. So when last we left our intrepid adventures, everything's fine
that my internet. We'll not talk about that. And you have, finally,
finally, for the love of all things, Holly opened the door and
gotten to the beer gardens, sacred Temple, the Church of the Almighty Brew.
You have found yourselves in a parcade floored place that looks surprisingly like a
tavern. What do you do? We are currently on ella Well, obviously
I am eight years old, and I'm trying to look around. I'm I'm
getting there. Hold on, hold on, I'm getting there, and I'm
gonna say where are we? The answer is, you're in a hall with
a parquet floor. There are doors to your right, to your left,
and there are two gentlemen that look like twins, obviously not identical, brandishing
swords and blocking the and as the precocious little child that I am currently,
I'm going to stomp right up to them and say, kaas, who are
you? I'm Kevin? Where are we the Temple of the Great Maddie Brew?
Uh? And then she'll be very confused, confus used and turn around
and say what are we supposed to do here? I forget is that you
don't look at me? Y'all? Look against all right, Claudia, bare
leave power. Oh dang, now she has to look at me because it's
my turn. Yeah, I mean to have amnesia too. Okay, hold
on a second, let me think about this. I blame it on being
eight and being made to take shots. So you know you are all rather
intoxicated. See it's it's fine, It's totally fine. So there's a doorway
right here. There's two twins there. There is a door next right next
to you here storeroom and okay, and a door up into the left.
Up into the left is the scientific and technical term looking at a maptop down
but yes, straight ahead and to your left. So there are two doors
on the left, one door on the right. There is a door at
the end of the hall. It's guarded by someone who doesn't speak and someone
named Kevin. Kevin is the one with the silver hair. Just so you
know, Claudio would like to try this door right here, ste if it's
unlocked, or or she can go in the door to the side. Yeah,
this one that she's kind of standing next it is locked. Oh man,
can she Let's see, she's kind of behind people. I'm wondering if
she can like pick the lock. You know what to do? Roguey rogue,
roguy pan um you do know what can do? Right slight of the
slide of pan or this is not where everyone pretends that the DM has forgotten
the rules on picking locks. Really smiling. It is a sleight of hand.
Check. Okay, clad earls. The big door appears to be unlocked.
Oh look at that, it's open. Um, can she peek in?
She liked to peek in. It is a storeroom full of kegs and
sacks of grain, and there's a drain in the upper corner. Drain.
Yes, interest thing. Um is there anything that looks valuable? Depends on
how much you like beer. They've had a lot of beer. I mean,
unless she's going to try to breathe it. I think, Um,
she's probably done with beer for a little bit. Um the town. Oh,
just so you know, the kegs do appear to be the same,
like it is a storeroom of the kegs of the same beer that is outside.
Okay, Um, she's going to make a mental note of that drain.
Actually she's also a lager ladder. But it leads up to like an
alcove where more bags and barrels are stored. So what you can't see is
it like a loft full of even more beer. So if that thing came
crashing down, it would be a minor brunami and the drain would be most
appreciated, she'll come back out. Then she's kind of me. Nothing shiny
in there. I think that's going to be her. And when nobody answers
Ella about what we're supposed to be doing, she just turns back around to
those guards, has a minor tantrum and says, I must speak to your
Menegilla. Well is your Menegia. We were just told to guard the door,
little miss um, and not let anybody pass until the ritual's done.
If you go outside, there's a lot of festivities, drink kind of what
we do. Okay, we're just paid, like, we only get paid
if people don't come through, So if you could just kindly go outside,
um, you know, be nice, please go away. How much do
you get paid? Well, they should, we're getting union rates whatever a
union is. My brother Levin handles the finances, but he don't talk much.
But the blonde guy just nods. So would you kindly leave? We
don't want any trouble because we're not paid that well, we want to bribe
them. I really wasn't trying to interrupt anybody else's turn. I was just
trying to feel that moment of space so that when Emily came back out.
They didn't notice her. You. That was very kind of you, oh
Malibu. Well, is often the existential what are you doing? Um?
Well, I'm hanging here in the hallway with uh with um uh Claudia and
and oh and and next to Gigi who's not here. But just think an
existential crisis moment. Okay, okay, well I will. I'll reach over
and pat her on the back to help her through an ex existential crisis and
ask Claudia what what she saw in that room? I saw mostly just beer
and grain, nothing shiny. I was a little bit disappointed. And a
beer huh miya more beer and a drain. Let's go, yes, drain,
let's go, drain all the beer out? Isn't is it? Beer?
What what makes this bad god go? We could drain the beer and
cheat him of all his his energy. We can do that. I'd be
up for doing that. Okay. I mean they've taken over my beautiful,
my beautiful place of worship. I think that they deserve a little of vandalism
and punishment. We understood you are having a brief existential crisis and arguing with
Kruton niece. These things happen. Could you give a quick rundown of what
happened, what we had, another discussion about the nature of life and how
I will take it away. Um, he's it's so very stubborn about it,
but I don't him. He has about eighteen hours before it goes away,
so to go have fun and enjoy his brief life. Second class,
there's apparently a conspiracy of Malibu and Claudia to sneak into a nearby room where
there is nothing shiny, but there is beer and a drain. There are
also Kevin and his brother Levin at the end of the hall who have asked
you very politely if you would please leave, because it's their job to keep
anyone from entering the rest of the temple. And they said they only get
paid if nobody goes through the door that they're guarding, and they only get
union rates, so we could potentially bribe them bribe. They do not respond
well. Are you saying this aloud? They do not respond well to temper
tantrums. No, oh, you're just merely I'm just communicating to Judy what
has happened. You don't want to have to deduct you no accent point,
I'm aware, Okay. Oh, so that's two are standing in front of
like a door. Yes, there is a door at the end of hall.
There are three doors. There is one two right, There are two
to your left. Claudia has unlocked the first one, and there is a
big door, double doors behind the double bros. I guess is a door
right beside me locked? Well you could attempt it? Sure? Did you
try the knob? Yea it locked? Well bullshit? Hey you can't go
in there, it's locked. Would you guys kindly please wait? Where are
your friends? I don't have funds? And when he asked that, Ella
will immediate throughly throw a temper tantrum, screaming about profit and Madeline shoe.
I'm followed the floor, kicking and screaming and making the most epic sounds any
human being has ever made, and demanding. In between all of those things,
I need to speak to your manager. Bring me your manager. You
have upset my daughter? What did you do? Why did you say to
you have upset my daughter? No? Why did you do? She is
a small child? How dare you We were prepared the head book. Uh,
that is my darling in jail. How dare you upset? Okay?
Okay, hold doctor bears never have to us. Just just give us a
minute, okay, Please please stop crying and making liquid com from your eyes.
Ella will sit up, give a righteous sniffle that just sounds disgusting and
horrible, and say all right, but only until they come back. All
right, no Shanigan, just good talk to Barry goes through the back doors.
Chilick, he is off, all right, Malibu, it's your turn
again. It's my turn again. Okay, um, the where's the drain?
But the French invasion is going on. It is so loud it may
have thrown Jigi into a void back to argue with Cruton. Okay, so
the is the drain in the middle. I've come into the room with with
Claudia. Y, So where's the drain? The drain? Here's the drain.
Does the floor upper of okay? Does the floor slope? The floor
is slightly angle, yea, towards the drain. They had Union construction crews.
Okay, um, and do the do the barrels have bungs on them
or they just barrels? They do have they are bungey barrels. So you
can put us, bigot in. Are you really going to do some with
the bung hole this early in the game, heading more French by the second.
Why not? I mean yeah, because this is beer, and I'm
sorry. Beer doesn't have a right to exist in Malibu's world. So I
know that this is the same beer that is out in the courtyard. Oh
this see this beer needs to get washed out to see and luckily there's a
drain. So um, are there are there spigots anywhere on the walls or
like up on a shelf or something. If you're going to search, give
an investigation? Okay, yes, you just come back. Malibu is playing
with the bungholes. Yes, I am. She's going to something in it.
Giggling madly. Can I help Malibu investigating? Please do, because I'm
too excited to find anything. You found a shiny You actually managed to find
somebody who dropped a hair clip? Oh what does it look like? Claudia
rold fifteenth to help her. It's a little butterfly in my head, totally
distracted you. Yeah it did. Are in the bubble? You, yes,
you're still in the bubble. How are you going to pick it up?
Oh shit, I'm still in the damn bubble. I only remember because
the only note I have from last session is freeze the bubble. Do you
see very well? That's that's why you've had trouble investigating. It's from being
inside the bub I own point things, ye. Claudio would be honored to
wear it for you, or she could try to pierce the bubble for you
if you direct her. Um, you're welcome to try with anything pointy that
you carry around. Um. Okay, I have crossbow bolts. I'm gonna
take one of my crossbow bolts out and try to poke through the bubbles from
my side, make a simple unarmed attack. So I guess that would be
strength. Okay, no, no, no, no, no, Uma
remembering and break it. Yeah, search the buncle, stab them in brains.
I will keep a straight face if it kills me. You won't,
So yes, Malibu, I know, I'm trying. I'm I'm trying to
my strength. Check. I tried, but it didn't go. See they're
okay, now it went got to safe. You need to roll the chow.
I'm sorry. I'm on two different computers because it was a pathetically low
roll of seven that it was pretty bad. I know, right, so
little ability. She's in a bubble. Give her a break. We're trying
to give her a break. That's exactly what we're trying to do. Literally,
literally, we're trying to give her a break. Evenively strong, who
because I really want to get the bubble. You have managed to stretch that
bubble, you know, like did you ever see Killer Clowns from Outer Space?
That old movie where they had like the call andy. It like it
stretches and stretches and stretches and stretches and then it goes boom and has a
really satisfying bounce around. But your your strength was so great you managed not
to stab yourself with the bolt on the return bounce. Yay mean woo hoo.
But it didn't want to and it was point were you were? You
kind of made a pointy gooey fit. Oh this is really really for those
watching the video, I apologize for my end emotions, but like it like
really good and it actually made a point. But it kind of had a
big membrane, like we all know, it basically had a bolt condom.
Yeah, sharp might have been used for a bludgeoning or chopstick for a very
large piece of sushi. Oh good, and now I'm stuck in sushi.
Thank you, Claudio will pick up the butterfly a hair clip and just clip
it to one of her little bare ears on her hat. It's incredibly adorable.
You can you can get that when you're out mouthing. It's perfect,
It looks adorable. It was made for you. Ah, I love it.
I love it on your bare ears and on your bare ears. So
a bear with butterfly ears, I mean a butterfly with bear ears. Now
you put it out. You said on your bare hat ears, not on
your red panda ear correct? Oh um, oh yeah, you've got extra
ear. We have to we have to quantify which set of ears that the
clip is. I think I think just the regular bear ear hat bear hat
ear duly noted. Are you doing anything else, Malibu other than curse your
existence and this stupid bubble that will not leave you? Oh? I'm doing
a lot of that, but yeah, that's gonna take me a while.
So else pretty much? Ella? What are you up to? I am
waiting, also not patiently for the manager. Okay, he has he has
left the room. There they're you know, it's only been ten seconds technically
of game time, so I don't care. Still scouting anything else you would
like to do. Your companions have disappeared. No, okay, you are
working for the manager. A full round of pouting. Yes, you will
now have a plus one to any annoyance checks of the future. Sweet,
can you pound pound hard enough to break a magic bubble bubble if you have
a spicy pout? See Claudia is still intent on breaking one of these barrels
with Well, you found a spigot. You did roll a fifteen investigation,
so you have an attack, all right, yes, do it? Do
it for me? Bubble bubble tapper bubble that point. Okay, okay,
let's try that. We'll try we'llt's try the spiggott on the bubble first,
make a strength check. Right, they don't have an attack with spiggott option.
Um, it makes a very fun bubble bo. Yeah so that was
at thirteen, so not enough it bubbles. Roll me a D one hundred
and prey to whatever deities Claudia is fortunate enough to leave in No boy at
thirty six, they aren't listening today. God is dead and no one cared.
I want to say in front of the claric always, hey, hey
you could have It could have ended up being the thing that oh suddenly you
find yourself inside the bubble with Malibu, and then there's two of us that
need rescuing. But that's what happens if you roll to one. Oh no,
oh god. No. The DM has a wild magic table and she's
not afraid to use it. Danger biggots. So there are taps. I
mean yeah, she wants to try to tap a barrel so it can let
the beard get chugged down the drain. Yes, now keep in by,
okay, so please tell me exactly what you were doing. Um, okay.
So she picks the barrel that is closest to the drain. Okay,
so that would be just to clarify this, not the ones standing up,
the one standing up or the one that's on its side here by Malibu,
right by Malibu and bub what's this rate? Those are piles of grain maybe
bread flour, You don't know unless you cut it over. It has a
definite wee heath smell. Let's let's she'll try this one right, okay,
So the one on its side next to Malibu. Yes, and you just
tap the keg. Are you going to let it drip? You know you're
gonna go who Minie Brunami rad the wig. What do you do of she
will tap it, but also jump out because she doesn't want to get her
boots wet. Okay, so you are pouring the magical brew down an unknown
drain. It was her idea. Yeah you know, I'm just saying,
hey, that's what you're doing. Okay, yeah, all right, I
am an agent of chaos, of cute cute chaos. Anything else you'd like
to do this around agent? That is all while the French are having their
wine break, there is beer flowing around your bubble and does not Yes,
it is. It is. It's kind of having to pour around, like
do you move at all? Actually? Yeah, um, I was thinking
there's another barrel, right, yep, there's there's are there three or four?
There are three down on the ground. There are one, two,
three, four or five six on the loft. Okay, um, one
of the ones that because we're on a top down view, but yeah,
okay, one of the ones that's on the ground. Um, I'm going
to jump up on top of it and start bouncing on it, trying to
crack the stays so that it'll crack open and the beer will flow down the
drain even faster. Dear, Lord, what is the role for that?
I don't know athletics, just roll athletics, and okay, tell me on
how you do this. So I am let's see if I actually make it.
You you would gracefully hop up on that barrel and you're reenacting some sort
of I don't know, grand old opry wet dream. Yes, I'm I'm
I'm jumping up and down. Um, you know, flat footed so that
my feet are staying at the bottom of my bubble, and I'm I'm jumping
and trying to hit as hard as I can to try to. I didn't
think i'd ever have to ask this so gently. How much do you weigh,
Malibu? Um? Not really very much and these are reinforced stay yeah,
yeah, yeah, I'll just roll that D one hundred for me.
You maybe hear a crack, Malibu, but you just don't weigh enough on
your own. I'll keep working on where I think of the crack might have
happened. I'm just I'm not tired. I'm gonna keep going. Okay,
Okay, you run on that alcoholic hamster wheel? Yes? Okay? Is
that anything else? This turn? Nah? I'm good, gig. You
took your wild break Cluton is furious that you did not share. Actually it
was like this, Why didn't you share with me? Lassie? I'm really
sick of this. I'ms not just your servant. I'm supposed to be your
own dead friend here. No, no, no cluti dumpling for me?
No, no whiskey nothing, Chiff, I'm sorry. Do you see whiskey?
Yeah, it's it's a shitty beer. We are in hell and we
are suffering to get out. That is what friendship is met of, Coton.
Do you want me to smash something? I could girl for a good
smashing. Yeah, it's got smash open some doors please, and then when
we find a whiskey, I will get you a whiskey. But it's not
here. And that's why I'm I'm upset. Hey, And what are you
doing on your turn? Okay? Arguing with yeah? Are forever? Uh
fuck? No, definitely not. I'm gonna go stand by my dog that
I have adopted. Y'all. Don't look alive to me. Yes, the
guard just said that to you. What is your point? I am a
Sally. Do you look like your brother? No, he looks like he
was hit by a door. You look like you are hit by a window.
Devoint see, wouldn't let me see the mines? That sounds kind of
racist to me. That's incredibly lude her father. All I want to do
is speak. We are going to speak it with God. It's disquit.
Take it to the top. I'm about to crank. Always hurry it up
where the others go. I feel it coming on. And then as he
says that, I'm just going to howl and scream and throw myself on the
forum pitch of it again and not notice that anything else is going on except
for that role performance for annoyance. You will get advantaged because you spent a
whole round prepping your tears. Oh shit, but your heart's just not in
it accent. Nobody believes in French accent. You've gone into that uncomfortable child
petulance that's making him look away pointedly like, oh good. But he did
point over your shoulder at one point. Go is that a zombie? No?
I see no zombie. I only mrs yes smash smash, duh smash
banging his fists against the door. And there's guys, that is definitely a
zombie. And and and you can't go in there, so um yeah,
we're either gonna have to kill the zombie or gonna just have to ask you
to leave. Could you could die? You could die instead. I can't
have many zombies, not that I am confirming that that is a zombie.
Hey, on your chain, No, bassy, I heard that. I'm
not gonna bang on the door no more until you take that back. I
didn't take you as the only Huton dead man in my hat. Oh you
mean not? Yes, dude, See anybody does nobody else around you?
I quisped you special, You're you're backton? Oh bullshitting please? Sorry a
straight face too. Let's see that nice? You were not full of he
is he is my only zombie? That is true? Mm hmmm, let's
see it. That was an e I have in my blood. I'm boun
to you. I'm gonna stop jumping for a second and go well done salute.
Everyone goes back to banging on the door, but he does if a
if a zombie skeleton thing could raise a brown hey, what's your number?
Is you do that? He would do the hand on your shoulder if his
hand was fully intact. Fair to keep banging on the door. But now
they was like like, okay, this is just We're gonna have to talk
to Barry. This is just too much. Excuse me, and he goes
off. Yay, finally, So now there's nobody at the door. There's
nobody at the door at the end. No oh, let's get back and
turn on a Malibu. You're still in there bouncing, Yes, well more
like I'm I mean, I'm bouncing, but yes, it's more like a
like stumping inside the bubble here. Really in bubble enhanced sparkly vision, you
know, you actually see the magical sparkles in the liquid that is pouring into
the unknown drain. Oh fly, little magic sparkles, be free. It's
magical. Same brute barrels that was out in the garden that was explicitly dated.
We need that. That's right, we did know that. Um,
we're so smart. Whose turn? Whose turn is it? It's yours,
Malibu mine. Um, I'm I'm jumping off the barrel and going to splash
over into the beer into liquid. You're going to take your magical barrier and
soak it in the magical liquid thoroughly. I'm hoping that maybe it will kind
of cancel itself, or maybe the sparkles will take their own back interesting.
Maybe the sparkles will take their own back. Love that. I see that
logic. I see it. It's very it's perfect logic. See gee believes
in me, I do, and I eighteen that bullshit perception for no apparent
reason. I know what to You can live, Claudia can make a perception.
Roll though, Okay, apparently I'm going to live in mild ignorance.
Claudia rolls in eighteen, you know, and sparkly liquid. It's kind of
dissolving the bottom of Malibu's bubble. Have flashback, Claudia. Claudia will tell
Malibu immediately. In fact, you can smell cotton candy Malibu. Now I'm
aware, I'm coming from I'm looking at my feet role for PTSD, no
wisdom, say Malibu, Okay, it's the number of the gay. It
is that you do. At least, even though you have some very strong
memories of your flesh being cotton candy and the liquid steam slowly dissolving you from
the outside end um, you think that it might just be sort of the
smell of strawberries mixing with booze. Yes, that's what I think. You're
smelling something from the outside. In fact, you're smelling a lot of booze.
Suddenly that's okay, that's okay, um, that's good. Is there
an open edge now to the bottom of my bubble? It's more like,
you know, like a colander kind of pitting. Okay, then I'm sticking
my fingers in wherever the pits are open and starting to tear it so you
will touch the beer, no, per face, what are you doing?
A good ballabu okay um? I am okay, all right, here's what
I'm thinking. I jumped a couple of times to get a good splash all
over the outside, and then when it pits up high out of the spilled
beer, I will tear at it. Do you want it over your head?
Is what you're saying on the sides. On the sides like right here,
yeah, right, well well Claudia, Claudia is watching all this,
and she will plunge her hands into the beer and start tearing at the bubble
too, because she's not afraid. Claudia is braver than me. Not it's
smart. I shouldn't save Claudia. Yeah, constitution save twenty one. You
don't feel a thing. There is no beer, there is nothing. It's
fine. However, can you roll me a D twenty, please, Claudia.
Okay, you're taking one for the team, is what you're saying.
You were, you were ripping it over the booze does not ye value,
sweet cleric Teammte fourteen, For the next fourteen turns, all of your actions
must be done in song. Oh my god, anytime you smell beer,
you must sing. The whole place now smells of beer. Only when she
smells beer? Did you say? All right? Every action, the whole
place smells like beer. So as long as you're in this temple for the
next fourteen rounds, climb in the bole. The bubble is the bubble smelting
Malibu. Yes, tell me a D twenty. Yeah, yeah, you
can now smell beer. But the next nineteen turns, all of your actions
must be in song. Oh all right, I'm getting out. See that's
a natural fit both of you. You're you're totally musical, because as long
as you're in this building, everything stinks of beer. Is there is the
whole big enough now that I can climb out of the bubble? Okay,
Claudia did that for you? You have taken, you have split the difference
and taked. She'll say, welcome back. You saved me. You saved
me. I love you. You saved me. Let's get out of this
room. I'll but seriously, I'll climb out and get and grab Claudia by
the hand. Your actions, oh sorry, Oh okay, you'll climb out,
You'll get everything I say must be in song. Yea, even if
it's not Malibu talking. Okay, because I am a trollmistress and you went
on the side two tour and you just unleashed magical beer into a whole new
zone that I have to do with. Fine, then DM punishment, I
climb out, I take Claudie out by the hand, and we run out
of the room to see where everyone else is. Oh boy, do you
need more? Are you? Would you like to hit end of turn?
God? Yes? Oh my again, my twenty's not behaving, so I
can't see the end of turn button. Ella, it's your turn. You
think you've heard sinking from behind, but yeah has left um So since he's
gone, I'll stand up and see if the door in front of me is
unlocked. It is unlocked. You mean the double doors or the one next
to you, No, the one directly in front of me. Yea?
Where the guards were standing. Oh where the guards were standing? This one
in front of you, Yes, this is unlocked, okay, so I
will go in because it looks token shock it. It is a kitchen slash
brewery. There are many many um like steins, some full, some knot
on the table. There's another one of the barrels here, open barrel.
Here. There's some kettles going where they seem to be making more brew and
can't see it very well. There is a door by the stove, okay,
on that wall. There is a also a door at the very top,
like straight ahead of you, that is locked and barred like a prison
door. So I want to come over here and investigate what's going on in
this general area. It is a I mean, if you weren't surrounded by
a bunch of fucking freaks, it would be a fairly normal like brewer's kitchen.
A lot of high power burners designed to boil a lot of mash.
There's grain, there's you know, all sorts of normal brewers tools. There's
really stinky hops that kind of sparkle um. And that's all you can see
without an investigation. Yeah, I'm gonna go ahead and investigate if I can
okay, role, it's my tiny friend. Oh advantage twenty two. Because
you are short, you can see a little tiny note that is stuck like
a you know how people put sticky notes on their monitors. Mh like.
It looks like somebody has hidden a note with a piece of like sticky gum
underneath this table. And can I read it? I don't know? Can
you read it? What language? I don't know? Is that something that
I need to wait for my next turn to do? Or h? Yeah,
you found the note? I will set. Let me look at your
sheet and I'll tell you if you could just look at and see it,
or if it's you're gonna have to find somebody who read it. Okay,
you need to find somebody who'll read it. The markings do not appear to
be anything that any decent person of breeding would know. It's a very scratchy,
evil looking script. A come here, I was waiting for that.
Claudia Barrenly, Ben Harmer, it is your turn, you know, Claudia
has come out to the hall. The fuck the fuck? What the fuck
is this? There is a zombie banging on Cruton just lea, okay it
is it's a known zombie it is the same charred zombie that was holding the
target and complaining about it profusely. I know this zombie. Oh Claudia,
why are you singing like a looney likewise, bucko? I can't of like
it like green sleeves? Would you? My favorite? I was like to
open this door. It's all green sleeves. I know. Claudia would like
to try to pick this walk roll it, please, Claudia roll a twelve.
Claudia does not possess the skill for this lock. Oh boy. Indeed,
when Claudia tries to unlock it, there is a sparkle of power and
a little thing shoots up your arm and goes ouch nikes four oh oh,
that's so mean. Three points of damage for triggering the trap. You got
it. The only advantage is for the briefest of seconds the ozone drowns out
the beer it's gonna keep. But yes, your attempt to pick the lock
seems to have hit some sort of magical shenanigan that your normal lock picks are
not able to overcome, nor is a zombie banging on it. But on
the bright side, the guys at the end of the rope have disappear okay,
watching last my wife on our wedding night. What do you want?
Um him? Why don't you have you have? You have them down there?
Um? I think that's the swee of you harmonize beautifully when you sing
together. Um. I am going to follow the child for I have adopted
chail. Oh yeah, yes, don't handle it. I'm probably not,
but that's why I'm leaving this room. So you have fun. Bye bye,
Steve barmaide with wash. I just had to make Cruton sing as punishment
for the internet fight I've had with him. Chinate home Scottish brag time home
to you. It launs you all my Ireland at time. I will try
and look at the evil looking note infernal Yeah I speak infernal, Abystle and
minotor Yeah yeah you you can read it. It's it's a little squwled note
that said, uh, the way ahead is written in the is written in
ink that the squares can't see. Okay, So it says the way ahead
is written in ink that's the squares cannot see. So I think it's a
person who was this was inhaling a lot of hups. It's a time um
and perhaps hallucinating. So I don't think we need to pay any attention to
it. Um. It does not seem very important our magicals. Do you
see the sparkles? Do I see sparkless spark gangs here? Do I have
to be more obvious? You guys? Have you seen our perception roles?
That is god? I mean you would think that I have a negative edition
on my perception, but honestly I have a plus three. Yeah, I
know, right right, that's great. That's great. Okay, So there's
a doors there, and are they obvious enough that they sparkle? Now?
Yes? Maybe? Okay, I will check to see what is up with
this jail looking door. I'm just very imposing, like bankabault kind of door.
And then there's another door that is right here. It's hard. I
do apologize, It's okay, am kid. I'm guessing reading the note with
my action, so I'm gonna explain I dead. So that's fine. I
am going to admire the sparkles. I'm gonna admire the sparkles because I have
done everything else that I can do this story. So I'm going to enjoy
the sparkles and think about the squares. Okay, now, let me push
the button. Push the Bat and I like pushing bat and the shiny time
for you to sing your turn to me? I I am waiting in the
hallway for the next door to open. Not being a thief, I really
can't help much. Dog. Oh, it's open. The door where Gigi
is is open? Where is open? Ah? All right, have vanished
off to get the manager Barry. Oh that I was aware. I will
walk down the hall to find Gigi and see what she's up to. Women.
Hey, I'm not hard to find. Behold un infernal and her tiny
warrior child with an open hand. What do you do? I said,
what are you reading? Is it exciting? Mean? It's about magic and
hiding things from squares? Um is the way ahead is written in ink that
these squails cannot see? Yes, that I thought you don't like to read
things squares. Whereas there are squares on the wall. I see squares on
the wall, but I think they're windows. I think these squails that it
refers to our us. We are not squail. We are all very voluptuous,
except for you, my small one. Yes, I know, but
I am that it is referring to the people who are not as disgustingly,
stinkingly drunk as the brutals. So what kind of ink could we not see?
Maybe pe perhaps be a of course, no, well we could.
We saw the beer in the in the other room. It's all over the
floor. I could see it there. There is also there are many are
you saying that maybe if we spills the beer it will flow and lead us
to where we need to go? It sounds stupid enough for these people?
Or or what if we take the letter and dip it in a puddle just
to see what happens? Okay, d yeah, oh me, yay,
keeping keep saying, is gone my bubble, it's gone, my bubble,
It's gone. Oh sorry, That's what I was doing for a moment.
So so you'd like me to take the letter and dip it in the puddle?
Yes, yeah, it is what you said you were going to do.
I well, it was more of a suggestion. It is now a
suggestions that you can do. See. There is the Gentlemans that I know
who says that when you have a good idea, it then belongs to you.
Therefore this idea now belongs to you. Congratulations, thank you, thank
you. Okay, you're taking the note to the puddle of Yes, the
very shallow puddle of all the magical birth that you have poured and released in
two parts unknown. Yes, yeah, there was a whole, but you
did not. There were a whole bunch of styns of beer in the room
you were just in. That aren't good enough? Okay, Well I don't,
I don't know. I um, I take up a stein and pour
a little on the floor. Does it sparkle? Where did your token down
the whole? No? I didn't. I never did that. Forget what
you saw? You saw bad, not the token you're looking for running down
the hall and taking into a puddle. Oh my girl, Okay, all
right, fine, I am I run down down with the note. That's
your turn, that's my turn, and I'm out. Ella Hey, hey,
Malibou, just ran What do you do? Ella's gonna look at and
say what I have learned It is better to not ask because I don't want
to know the answer, because what if it is contagious horrible for other people?
Certain, Okay, I would like to take a little closer look at
these sparkly hops. I'm trying to find the right eye map and stop moving
the token on riverside. I've done that so many times. Yeah, why
can't I move it? I'm glad I'm not the only one who's been Oh
my goodness. So is there anything beyond the sparkles that's unusual about these?
What role me? Either arcana or nature? Who I stuck at both of
them? Let's try. Yeah, you're gonna have to ruin. They're they're
definitely imbued with magic, like strong magic to the point where they're sparkling.
They may be the one of the ingredients of said magical beer. No,
you don't see, I mean likely it is. It is highly likely that
you have found at least one of the magical ingredients of the magical beer I
have moved in. So I'm guessing that's the end of my turn, right,
I mean, unless you have any other petulance to spread. No,
I will quietly keep my pounting to myself for now. That that's storing it
for later. Yes, muscles get tired if you do not rest them.
Claudia Barren leap, I think this might be a good place to break.
I was about to say, would you kindly sing us off to break before
anything else really shitty happens. Let's take a break, and on that note,
tune in next week to see if the players will ever leave the room
or how much more chemical warfare of the magical variety they will play upon the
local environment. Tune in to see what happens when sewer rats get dosed with
magical beer on the next Calamity Janes. Who who? But that's not all,
is it? It still never is? What? I wonder if we
have any questions tonight? What say you, misty? You know I have
so many questions, you know, what is? Why? Why am I
here? Why isn't there singing? How many more rounds? Do I have?
A look? Um, No, yet we do have. We do
have questions from our fabulous, lovely little puddin pop fans and and of course
horribly cruel say, technically you're still stuck singing. No no, no,
no, no, no, I will, I will, I will fuss
at you that to you. Yes, yes, yeah, no no.
But um, I was just going to mention that we let some of our
fans cut the line in the question answering portion of our evening. And those
fans are the fans on the discord. The discord. You say, how
do I get to be a member of the discord? Well, you go
to Authors and Dragons and join the Patreon and then you two can cut the
line no bear slaughtering. You know. It's like Fast Passes at Disney,
but better because it still exists. I have watched the Fast Past documentary like
at least three times. I am obsessed with it, so I need to
watch it. It sounds cool, but I haven't watched it yet. You
need to ever distract the dms. You can just put Drew and I in
a room with the documentary and we're gone. We're like, oh boy,
we would keep writing myself a note right now. Yeah, I have a
note about that one. But um, so we had a couple of questions
from the discord and the first one come from Celdrianna and she asks, what
are you reading right now? I have, um, the Quincy Harker first
Year Year one on my night table right now. So that's where I am.
Okay, I have the Screenwriter's Bible because I said a New Year's resolution
that i'd try to write my first screenplay this year. Good luck exciting?
Yeah if I do. Okay, y'all ready for this? Pretty On my
audio books, I am listening to Moby Dick, which is probably going to
kill me. Um, the actual Melville, like the actual unabridged Melville.
Oh yeah, yeah, it's it's painful. That's why it's audio book.
And I'm listening to it at work because I can passively take it in and
not have to plow through the words on the page. You've probably chosen the
best that Yeah. Yeah, I kind of regret it, but I only
have about eight hours left of the audiobook, so I'm gonna finish it.
Get on, um my kindle. I'm reading Queen of Nunn by Natania Baron.
On the Dead Tree platform. I am reading Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King
and Owen King. Oh yes, and I think that's it right now.
Yeah, that's oh no. Also also The Halloween Tree by Ray Bradberry.
So I've got right now, I've got it kind of light right now.
Um, that's only four Usually i've got five or six. I thought I
had more than that. Oh my gosh, welcome to uh. So I
am reading a He's a Guy novel, I suppose. So it's Chinese and
that's a whatever. It's a it's a light novel called Scum Villain Self Saving
System about a guy who transmigrates into a novel he would hate reading, uh
as the villain uh, and then has to deal with all the repercussions of
the terrible, stupid story that he was reading. Um and that's pretty funny.
So it's so and it's super gay, so something like that. Yeah,
but yeah, so it's it's super good. That's super funny. Um,
super gay. So if that's her, that's your thing, that that
is, that is my thing. It's super fun I just started More dou
by Alex Phoebe last night. I think his name is said Phoebe, that's
how it spelled. Um. And it's about a young a young man who
uh, he lives in this weird sort of maybe it's a London I'm not
sure it sounds London adjacent, but they don't uh. I don't think they've
said that it's London. It just sounds like London. But um, he
the the there's a wizard that lives in a in a big building and he's
he kind of controls all everything and he it's going to turn out that he
is consuming the leftover body of God to get his his power and um,
because that's the only way he can do magic, right, you know,
you know God, cheeseburgers and us. But the men, let's not talk
about cheeseburgers. Boy. Well kid. The kid though, has his own
power and he's going to come. That's going to come into play pretty soon.
I'm only about thirty pages in, but so far it's really good.
So okay, So there you go. Soldrianna um Hainous Lizard would like to
know what is the weirdest thing you've ever eaten? Emily make Emily. This
is a question for Emily. Yeah, this is I have a YouTube channel
devoted to some of these delicious items. I think the weirdest one for me
was the giant scorpion. It was very, very crunchy, didn't have a
lot of flavor, thank goodness. I don't know. I mean I wouldn't
just want it to be an insectoid cheeto. I mean you'd kind of want
some flavor. Cheo would be better. You could toss it in cheeto dust
and hot scorpion. Yeah, Cheeto hot scorpions, new new hot thing.
There you go. Yeah, in retrospect, I should have put some like
cage and seasoning on it or something. Yeah, it seems like they should
be spicy. Yeah, because you definitely don't want like strawberry scorpion just wouldn't
work an amendment. What is the weirdest thing you've eaten that wasn't horrible?
Oh, Emily specifically, Yeah, Emily's eating way weird or stuff than all
of us. I'm trying to even think of anything weird I've eaten wasn't horrible.
Good question. Um, there was so much bad bad, Yeah,
that's way transcend beyond the terrible to find something that was weird and delicious.
Well, the dasses or that that ass that you gave me were basically just
delicious cookie. Yeah, we did eat the asses together, didn't we Emily?
Do you see it that way? It's an author in dragons Con tradition.
Every author's in dragons Con. I have managed to source their a Japanese
cookie. It's really just a long de shot biscuit, except they can be
in macha or chocolate or white chocolate. But it's this beautiful, thin little
cookie with a filling on it. But it's called the asses, and we
have made it a tradition every a and d Con to eat tasses together.
Oh okay, that's cute, And will there be tosses in Portland Ire.
Just a good segue. If you would like, we'll eat the asses in
Portland with you, assuming we can find them. Because supply chain issues,
it took me two months to get the last asses. But we have a
brand new store that just opened twenty minutes from here called Um super g Mart.
And it's a world it's a global supermarket and it's got it's stop it
discount. I don't know, because I'm pretty sure. No, it's got,
it's got food from everywhere. My husband and I went up last weekend
and spent like three hours just wandering around going oh this, oh this,
and it was dangerous. And they had they had three different kinds of grape
leaves. I could choose the region of my grape leaves, and so I
was so excited. So I will go look for the asses. No grape
leaves, look for the asses in the Japanese snack section. I will,
I will yep, they're actually really fort um. But yeah, well,
what a weird things have you? I know you've had jellyfish, misty.
Yeah, actually I was gonna say jellyfish because it was it was yellow and
disgusting and chewy, and it was like it was like a a gummy bear
that had sat outside of the bag for about six weeks, so it was
it was that hard, yeah, and it tasted like pepper. It tasted
like pepper, and it was the nice Japanese lady gave it to me.
I was pregnant and she said, oh, this is good for pregnant ladies,
and so I tried it because I'm brave, but never again. That
was disgusting. Yeah, the one wasn't that tough and didn't taste of anything,
but like the soy sauce marinade that it was in. It wasn't the
worst thing. I mean it was chicken feet or loot fisk or but I
would have to say the weirdest thing was the durry and cream donut because it
wasn't terrible. It was actually delicious. It was like duran is good,
yeah, because it just smells as yeah, yeah, exactly on the tail,
but it's kind of like a good, funky French cheese. When you
eat it. It tasted like a really delicious cheesecake that I could actually eat
because it was like a vegan dry and cream donut. Nice. So that's
the weirdest thing I would think in recent time I mean the clear mint pie
was also pretty damn weird. I mean, I don't really texture weird.
I don't really eat weird stuff. I end up eating like bougie stuff,
so it's kind of weird. Like I've had foa gra and I loved it.
Um, I've had like elk and rabbit and you know, stuff like
that. But I don't really think that's weird. I just think it's bougie.
It's weird to people who have never carved up thumber and baby and had
them. Yeah. Or duck comfy. Duck comfy and waffles with a maple
orange reduction is still the meal that I fantasize about because I can't get it.
Oh my god. You know I know how to make duckcomfy. And
he said, it's duck comfy with waffles comfy on savory waffles with a maple
orange glaze. Now I know, Yeah, when we're together, if you
ever come up to Massachusetts, what I have to make because I do know
how to make dut com fee, and I make a good duck comfy before
you at me, all you super hyperfoodies, I do now, because I'm
not made of money. Make the stouvie duck comfy. So I don't need
a gallon of duck fat and slow cooking. I do still cook it in
its own fat, and then I store it in its own fat. So
don't at me. Okay, buy more books and then I'll make proper duck
comfy. There you go, Judy, Um, I have had a cake
made with cricket flower. Oh, I think that's probably the weirdest. That's
weird, Misty shaking her head. I mean, like you really couldn't tell.
Maybe just how to slightly more nutty. Oh, we're trying this one,
aren't we Emily, It's gonna be cricket flower. Yeah, I'm in.
I can do that. Yeah. I was not bad at all.
And I mean it's like super ground up, so you can't really even tell
what it. Sure, that's my childhood, is my parents going. It's
really tiny. You can't find it, Yes I can, the president of
the cave. You're misty with the cricket, Yes I can. I'm seeing
the cricket batter. Moll you make it. I will find it, like
there'll be one antenna and the whole it will be. It will be.
Just just think of it as finding just think of it as finding the baby
in the kinkcake. You'll be fine. Yeah, the cake, finding the
cricket and the cricket cake. It's good luck, just like finding the baby
in the kink cake. Yeah. I think it was a hazel nut cake.
So the nuttiness of the cricket enhanced the nuttiness of the hazel nut.
Yeah, it was. It was good. That's probably the weirdest thing.
I don't really eat weird very often. I don't think I eat weird.
I'm sure I would say something, but to me, my brain is just
like, no, these are all normal foods. So that's all I got.
Cricket. For vegetarians, there's a whole big debate about it. It's
the same with how some vegetarians eat fish some and some eat egg and some
don't. There's there's a lot of strong opinions and the vegetarian and vegan community
about isn't allowed militant vegans they are. I eat egg but not fish and
eat insect. So that's fall and dairy. Oh god, you could take
cheese from my cold dead hands, as DM pot cheese in cold dead hands
of cruton. Yes, good crutons with some like cheese on for good Caesar
saltain, goat cheese and strawberry jam. Oh yeah, yes, yeah,
berries on toast with black pepper that is strawberry. You don't even have to
do that. Just just strawberry jam right out of the jar on goat cheese
on a cracker when strawberries. Yeah, we had a brie and fig jam
at New Year's and it was so good. Wish I could have brie,
but it will kill me. So it has a penicillin mold on the rhine
and if you can find it, Humboldt fog is like a goat cheese with
a blue cheese layer in it and then a rind kill me. Well,
don't eat it then. But anybody else who likes blue cheese or goat cheese
looking amazing. I am sure it is lovely. I just I have already
revealed to my future stalker killer how they can get me. And it's blue.
It's blue cheese. Okay, have we killed this conversation? Do we
have other questions? Well, we've definitely made me hungry, But we do
have some questions from the Facebook because we do still even though we let our
discord people hop the line. We do love our Facebook fans, and so
from the Facebook, Stephanie Taylor would like to know what movies, shows,
or video games, um, any or all um are you looking forward to
in twenty twenty three. I have the shortest possible answer to this. Okay,
I suck about following up with movies. I don't really play a whole
lot of video games except the stupid free ones on my phone, and I
am so far behind on TV shows it's embarrassing. So none purity. Hey
how about you, Judy? Um? So I am pretty much like Teresa.
I don't really I'm bad about keeping up with stuff. UM. I
am excited about what I think the new Silent Hill video game is coming out
this year. I hope it will. Yeah, yeah, so I am
super excited about that. Um But really that's that is the only thing in
my little tired brain that registers everything else. Like I will discover it when
I stumble upon it online or someone mentions it, and then I'll go,
oh, yeah that thing. Oh and the Trygun anime just came out,
which I'm excited to check out the remake of that. Um. But otherwise
I think that that's all that my current brain is aware of. How about
you, Emily. I have a long to to watch list, watch watch,
need to watch and wors so we can talk about it. Well,
first I have to watch the New Knives Out movie, which is good.
I actually can't say the theater to see that, and it's on that so
I went to a theater it was. I was so glad I did.
I did see that one last night because we had run out of TV shows
to watch, so we got it. We watched it last night. It
is really good. It's worth the time. Cousin in it. Apparently,
as I have, I am related distantly to Edward Norton. That's why we
have the same nose because we are both descended from the governor of Virginia and
Polcahonda's and we both had I will give him credit. We had the exact
same reaction of how many people did our ancestors on oh oh, like just
the existential horror over a faith. Like you know, some people look at
their family tree and go, oh, that's cool. There's go oh oh,
Well, that's that's the thing. In America, especially on the East
Coast. If your family's been here more than a minute, you're more than
likely got slave owners in your background, and yeah, if you're white,
if you're wife, it still doesn't make you feel good. No, it
doesn't doesn't. Yes, but I am all taintly guilty, we all tainted.
Thank you, so to assuage your guilt. I also want to watch
the next Black Panther. Maybe good. I've seen that one too. It's
not quite that it's the first one though. I can talk about that one
for hours. Yes, it's coming on Disney Plus soon, Isn't it.
All I can say, just be prepared for nay more appreciate name. Oh
boy, Okay, it's I have seen the gifting. This is a beautiful,
beautiful, beautiful thing. That is all I can say. I'm in
awesome. Otherwise, I've just been watching some anime, so I need to
catch up on chainsaw Man and also on Spy Ex Family Sons. It is
cute. Okay, speaking speaking of cute, I and I know I'm way
behind, but um, I am looking forward to season three of The Mandalorian
because I just started watching The Mandalorian. I didn't think you didn't ever,
And why didn't anybody tell me? Oh my god, oh my god,
baby, every debt everybody told you they did. I wasn't listening about praise
baby Yoda every damn week. I know I have, and I'm grown ass
woman. I desire a grow Goo doll now because he is the cutest little
baby lima bean I have ever seen, and I love him. The Target
ones, Okay, I will go to Target. But but so I'm really
excited about another season of Mandalorian because I'm I'm just geeking out about it right
now. And um, and I'm really excited about season two of Surreal Estate.
And I don't know if any of y'all saw that, but it was
a sci fi show about It stars the guy who played Doc Holiday in um
one Onna Earp, and he's a he's a real estate guy, but he
can see dead people and so he he and his his company specialize in selling
haunted homes to the people who would buy those. And there's a lot more
to it. But um that had gotten canceled. Well then all of a
sudden, mysteriously it got uncanceled, And so season two is actually coming out
this year, and I'm really excited. It is on who. The first
season's on Hulu if you want to go check it out because it's it's really
fun. But um um, so I'm looking forward to that, and then
of course the Dungeons and Dragons movie that we're all excited about and movies of
that one. Absolutely, we should do it at the movie. We should
do it at the movie of the original. The left speech like, oh
god, I have been known as the girl who was I am demo dar.
We need to do that. Okay, this is lipstick. That's what
we will do. We will have a Jane's at the movies and we will
do this. We will do the original D and d yes because I have
spoken God. But those are my else looking forward to. Oh I'm sure
there are, because unlike the people who actually have lives at the I've watch
and pay attention to a lot of TV. Don't worry, I've got a
list starting here, so let's see. I am looking forward to The Mandalorian
season three. I am very much looking forward to Severance season two. Please
give me more Severance. That's my TV. I'm sure there'll be more,
but it's like they're so weird on because oh my god, Strange New World
season two and the last season of Picard. I know Piccard has burned me.
It has hurt me. It will hurt me again. But they've got
Laura coming back, and he was one of my favorite villains from all of
a Star Trek the Next Generation and they're having basically it's just the Star Trek
the Next Generation season eight. I was denied growing up. I'm a massive
trek hen. I'm looking forward to that um. But for movies, it's
Dune. I want to see Dune Part two. I'm going to see Dune
Part two. I will put on my mask and I will sit in an
Imax theater and I will enjoy it. And no, not um. And
obviously there's the Marvel movies that I would like to see, The Marvels and
Quantum Mania. Oh Loki season two, How did I forget? That's yes,
yes, yes. And for video games, Final Fantasy sixteen it looks
so bad. If you haven't seen this trailer, it is the most epic
metal trailer of the year, you know, and it actually makes sense,
unlike the trailer where Stranding. But yeah, Final Fantasy sixteen. It's being
done by the same guy who does Final Fantasy fourteen, the online one,
The Reborn, which is really really good. Yoship, I love you man,
So they'll be that, and there also will be a DLC to elden
Ring World. We will pretend we know what we're doing and not secret watching
all the tutorials on YouTube through the twelve attempts, and then doing it.
But it is actually a surprisingly pretty game. So that's what I'm looking forward
too. Yeah, okay, and then one last question, Daniel Nestor asked
what other podcasts actual play or otherwise do y'all listen to? And um,
mine right now is the Murdoch Murders podcast because it's it's terribly interesting and it
takes place in an area of South Carolina that I actually grew up in,
and so I actually am acquainted with some of the people that are going down
for this, and so it's fun to go, oh, yeah, that
jerk he's in the Yeah, I know, he was an asshole. So
so that's mine. Okay. I was checking out I was checking out Critical
Role just to see what they were up to you, and they're they're not
as funny as we are. Their production qualities pretty off the charts. But
but yeah, and also I was looking at I mean, I was listening
to you. I think it's called All about Agatha. It's going through the
Agatha Christie mysteries. That sounds kind of my jam. I have been watching,
um, a couple of Bailey Sarian podcasts, The Dark History Podcast and
The Murderers Are Murder, Makeup Monday something or other podcast. Um, it's
more of like a YouTube show than it is anything else, but it's fun.
It's She's funny. Um. And then there are several that I watch
more as YouTube shows that are breakdowns of Christian fundamentalism because I find that as
like real life horror and probably will use it and stop going legit. Um.
So I have been watching Slash, listening to The Last Refuge, which
is a D and D podcast, actual play and live stream. Um,
they come, they come back, this win today the eleventh. They're back
the eleventh, um for for twenty twenty three. Um. So I'm excited
about that. They're a super fun group, um, and I enjoy their
show. So that's The Last Refuge. Um. Yeah, They're they're fun.
That's that's pretty much it. I don't I used to listen to a
lot of podcasts then then I stopped. So yeah, I haven't been doing
much. I really did a deep dive into Defunct Land and Yester World,
which are more YouTube channels, but they do have podcasts from time to time.
But I have learned so much about the history of the Disney parks that
I never knew I needed to know and ended up crying over a four tone
Disney like advertisement bumper theme too. Oh no, oh my god. If
you haven't seen he does the Fast Past, the one I was talking about
that if you need to ever distract Drew and Rachel, you can just lock
us in a room with a fast Past documentary. You put on De funk
Land. We are gone, both of them. It's a DM fascinator like
scary Rachel, not particularly My life is terrifying enough. Why oh okay,
Well, because there's a there's a book that I read called Fantastic Land,
and the premise of it is a theme park that is very much like Disney
in Florida gets hit head on with a hurricane when it was not anticipating a
full blow, and the skeleton crew that is left behind basically fractures into factions
and then chaos, and it's it's very epistolary, it's very interviewing, but
it's it's it's good fun. I heard about that so awesome. It's good.
It's really good. I listened to the audiobook of it. It's good.
Cool. Oh. I also listen to the Clone Star podcast because star
trek and I am a total trek ee cool. That's all the questions that
we had for this week. So yeah, I guess we'll just have to
come back another week. Oh boy. But in the meantime, just so
you don't miss us, make sure to go to Authors and Dragons dot com
and click on the link for the convention because you can come and see us
live and in person in Portland in August and all the details will be there.
Go buy your tickets, go see us there because it's a long ass
flight for most of us, so we want to see your faces there too.
We want to eat the asses with you. We will eat as we
will eat the asses with you. By also some Dragons brought to under Creative
