can't believe garak went from 'hope you have fun following my little breadcrumb trail of maybe-truths doctor it builds character ;)' at the beginning of the show to '*sigh* fuck it here's the whole loaf. the entire fucked up bakery of my soul. if you somehow still wanna have sex with me after this you know where I am, yours in infinite longing etc.' in a stitch in time. has anyone ever been so pathetically horrifically enduringly down bad as garak is for julian (laudatory)

#that's some real lodestar simp stuff you've got going on garak and I'm so happy for you/sorry . I guess that's the thing about love #garashir #elim garak #star trek #star trek ds9 #ds9 #I take the same approach to 'a stitch in time' that I do to deacon's final story in fallout 4 -- I'm agnostic on if ALL details are true #but overall it's certainly *emotionally* truer than even the truth could be sort of situation. genuinely emotionally intimate finally. #which I think is the more important part #and part of that is being weapons grade longing material fjdskjafsa. off the pining scale.

A lot of people talk about Actual Play podcasts giving unrealistic expectations for TTRPGs (Surprise! Trained Actors improv differently from your average player, and even for indie APs, playing for an audience is completely different from playing among friends)

But I absolutely think that watching other people play CAN inspire new ways to play, in a way you can’t really get elsewhere.

It wasn’t until I listened to Friends at the Table and listened to how Austin Walker narrates the games they play that I considered the potential of treating a TTRPG less like the kind of collaborative improv we normally treat it as, and more like storyboarding.

The major difference being: Austin regularly talks about ‘the camera’. It is practically its own character with how much attention it gets.

“So I’m imagining this like one of those shots where everything kinda freezes in place, and the character is still moving to show the out of body experience they are having right now, and when the scene cuts back, these are the parts that are different.”

“Oh yeah, you open the box, and it’s like that scene in Pulp Fiction. Where we just see this golden glow from what’s coming inside. Your characters know what’s in there now, but I have no idea, we haven’t gotten to that point yet. We will come back to it.”

“Okay you see this symbol, and your character wasn’t there for it so they don’t know what it was, but we the audience can immediately connect it back to this one cult we were dealing with.”

At one point just blatantly goes “Oh man, actually should we change it to this, for a better thematic parallel to what happened in that other session? That might be a really good resolution for your character.”

It’s such an INCREDIBLE example of what you can do by treating the fiction so casually, and like the work in progress it actually is. Genuinely one of the best GM practices I have ever seen, and something that very quickly became a tool I make heavy use of in my campaigns.

The story isn’t a finished product, and it turns out treating it like a draft instead of a finished product makes the game able to do SO MUCH more cool shit.

#it’s SUCH a good way to narrate! #AND it’s system agnostic! AND it makes GMing a far more approachable practice!!! #TTRPGs #Friends at the Table

when you realize that this scene was actually very much foreshadowing what would happen later…

I deal with proselytizing by saying “I’m already a Christian, thank you.” and then fixing them with my steely dead-eyed gaze. Yes, the faggot already has found God. Move along.

#it’s a half-truth. I’m agnostic but also Episcopalian so. who knows.

Announcing: Restful Actions

(It's here. You can go get it now!)

Restful Actions is a collection of 10 minigames for downtime periods in any TTRPG. They're designed to help players resolve character conflicts, complete goals, heal or explore, and take much shorter shopping trips. (You can, in fact, download the shopping trip minigame as a demo!)

For GMs, the goal is to give you a break, so you can start preparing the next Big Event. The minigames invite players to fill in some details of the world, creating shops, landmarks, even creatures.

You can pick up your copy here:

I've talked about this thing in more detail here:

Sometimes people demand you justify being an atheist with a 200 page well-sourced thesis on biblical scholarship but one of the reasons I am not a Christian anymore is so fucking simple. It made my life worse. It made me unhealthy mentally. I’ve grown one thousand times more as a person without it. If it were really the one true wisdom from an all knowing infinite god, it would make my life better. And that’s enough proof for me. And it’s a valid reason.

a meme specific to my interpretations

#gopher rambles #tf2 medic #shitpost #team fortress 2 #tf2 memes #emesis blue #my interpretation of blu team is just as clones with falsified memories that have altered their personalities #all of them are less volatile than their red counterparts but are a less effective team #this is especially noticable with Blu Medic (Friedrich) who is basically just emesis blue medic because I think it's funny #so basically this is Catholic Guilt Medic vs Agnostic God Hater Medic. Red Medic (Ludwig) believes that if god is real they're mutual hater

[waitingawhile]

super loose sketch but. I have so many writing ideas about dsmp characters and religion from c!wilbur’s perspective. (I hc him as an athiest or agnostic who’s closest peers are people of faith and he tries so hard to understand but cannot connect with religion, fears he can’t understand this piece of them, like an outsider to faith and that peace in their features when they talk about it. c!tommy with lady prime, c!quackity with something akin to Catholicism that he can’t remember the origins of, c!techno a pagan/pantheist acting with several deities, c!phil a pagan). inspired by this and this and @ghosts-and-blue-sweaters . Something something mirroring the behaviors of his closest friend that bring him comfort to see if anything will work at this point. Taking it seriously at first and then getting embarrassed with himself when he doesn’t hear a voice back. Getting frustrated and pretending to himself that he never tried and it was silly. going to limbo. idk.

#deffo not me projecting my admiration for the love and devotion or religion and finding prayer beautiful as agnostic onto my kin character #it’s more likely than you think #dsmp #c!wilbur #ages ago I drew cTubbo and michael praying salah during Ramadan #never posted it bc I was afraid to accidentally mess something up/draw something disrespectfully #it’s just so pretty and beautiful to me fr #the act of ritual and prayer 🤎 #my beloved #aidey's art #aidey's tunes

It's funny how certain religious people act like accepting LGBTQ rights will lead to paedophilia being normalized when they've already let that shit slide for centuries.

Then again, what else do you expect from people who value religion over the rights of children?

Don't let them trick you into thinking they care.

I think the thing about Barry Bluejeans that has captured my hyperfixation for years now is that he's like if a genre-agnostic comedy relief character was also a fantasy villain who was a scifi-horror protagonist who was an epic space opera love interest. there's just so many facets of him to observe when I rotate him in my brain.

#the comedy relief is genre-agnostic bc a seemingly totally normal dude named barry j. bluejeans is funny in any setting #while the remaining three don't feel like they're supposed to be in the same story at all #but they *work* and that's why i've been obsessed since like 2019 #taz #taz balance #taz balance spoilers #barry bluejeans

....starting to get the shape of how Ludinus sold radical anti-every-government-on-Exandria-action to Liliana. "Vasselheim is going to kill your daughter and it's YOUR fault" does seem like it would sway a terrified person, especially if they have a convenient run in with a Judicator early on in the seduction process.

#cr spoilers #she clearly doesn't have a lot of family outside of relvin #gelvaan is probably religious but she and her husband aren't #they have weirdly agnostic 17th century farmer energy #they live far outside of town they're both aloof #relvin was ready to LEAVE with her one day #and liliana did leave #she's kind of a paranoid loner at her core #and that leads into anti-establishment sentiments very easily
