I feel like we, as a society, are sleeping on how funny Sklonda Gukgak is as a character. yes, yes, she's amazing and heartbreaking and I would die for her. we all know it. let's talk about how she is objectively fucking hilarious.

she's a single mom. she instituted a minimum four hour nightly sleep for her son, completely ignoring the fact that her son got his sleep and coffee habits from her. she took a hard left from police work into public defense, but kept her gun and goes to active crime scenes with her son and his friend. they mentioned one (1) time that she was dating a devil who is easily ten times the size of her entire body. this fact is never brought up again. she loves her son's friends, but does not like or trust any of them. despite this, she 100% went on vacation with them and all their parents. she laments her son's relentless and self-destructive work ethic right before conking out on the kitchen table at 3am. she helped her kid eat a dragon.

this woman is as feral as they come. she's hilarious. I adore her. 11/10, Brennan. no notes.

#she is simuntaneously one of the Most hinged and Least hinged of all the adults in this show #and thats just how good mothers are #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fhjy

favorite part of the episode is actually when Adaine says Fig has "like, 5 jobs" and when she lists them off and gets to "security detail for the president," you can feel the despair in Sandra Lynn's soul as this woman who doesn't seem to be tracking the incredibly influential high school government election seriously considers whether her teenage daughter might be working as a security guard for the actual president of the nation of solace

#lmaoooo #poor sandra lynn. she has no fucking clue lmao #tbh fig COULD be a sevurity detail for the actual president and i wouldnt bat an eye #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fhjy

One thing that's so great about Kipperlilly hating Riz cus his father was murdered is how well that meshes with her being an in-universe xp grinder.

Like she's out here killing rats over and over and completing quests she knows she can do because it's the completion she's after not the achievement. and then she ALSO gets super fucking mad when the DM incorporates another character's backstory seamlessly into the main campaign plot. The mere THOUGHT that interesting backstory elements and skillful narrative building make for a better campaign experience is so ENRAGING for her because she's a fucking grinder. she's playing d&d like a wargame and is SO FUCKING PISSED that other people are playing it like an improv narrative medium and having a better time.

#sorry kipperlilly but Aguefort doesnt play the game that way #find a different table babe. but you cant cus ur an NPC and thats part of the problem #she want to be a main character so bad it makes her look stupid #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fhjy #kipperlilly copperkettle #dimension 20 fantasy high

imagine being gorgug and hearing that he was doing three or four years of school in one for absolutely nothing. imagine your principal telling you that you are a fool for working hard. incredible. the crits have been payback for how much he’s been fucked with this season.

#trulyyy #give the boy a BREAK #he deserved those crits for real #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fhjy

[the-cooler-newton]

They optimized the hell out of that fight. Well done intrepid heroes!

#this is so fucking sick #the detail ???? my god #incredible incredible #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fhjy

[the-cooler-newton]

I guess egg on my face for wanting something.

#this is so sick!!! #the colours. the composition. beautiful #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fhjy

and is the helio that wouldn't have let that happen in the room with us right now?

#💀💀💀 #wheres your god now buddy #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fhjy

if i had a nickel for every time the Rat Grinders killed their party cleric I'd have too nickles, which isn't a lot but it's fucked up that it happened twice

#what are they DOING what is their PROBLEM #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fhjy

what kipperlily didn’t see, in her haste to leave the crime scene, was further proof that she’s always been wrong about kristen. because kristen cares. she was willing to possibly incriminate herself by searching buddy’s body for some way to bring him back. she was willing to reach out to her already struggling god to try to bring him back. and the bad kids, too. they were disappointed they couldn’t help him right away. they set up a way to watch his body and have evidence if it was disturbed.

they care.

even when it’s about a person they never for a second liked.

#that full chorus of “...we gotta try and bring him back” #heartbreaking. they care so much #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fhjy

The bad kids are insane this episode. It's crit city. It's tactical genius. They are blowing through the kinds of monsters that make most dnd parties shit themselves. They've come SO FAR from the scared kids who died to cream corn and I am LIVING for the sheer competency on display here. No one is doing it like the bad kids are doing it.

#gorgug died to cream corn in episode 2 and this episode he tanked every hit from a dune worm #like thats the level of Growth we are looking at #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fhjy

Obsessed with Siobhan this episode, giving her nat20 portent to the paladin with 4th level smites and booming blades, casting the clutch Scatter, fucking up Brennan's shit with dust mephits that blind you when they die, constantly dodging so she barely gets hit and can mantain concentration, coming up with the limerick together with Emily in like 20 seconds, ahhh she's just So Good at this game!

#adaine this fight made me realise that wizards can be a support class #because there were multiple moments when she just hauled everyone onto her back and carried #beautiful #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fhjy

“maybe helio wouldn’t have let that happen.”

#ough man buddy #im so sorry #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fhjy

I haven't seen it mentioned how huge of a flex it was for the Bad Kids to not only survive the Last Stand without anyone going down, but for Kristen to then immediately go "oh yeah, I can Plane Shift us out of here." Like not only did nobody die in the "your test is to die heroically" test, their healer never even cracked her 7th level spell slot. Wild.

#SUCH a boss move #“oh i have plane shift 😎” #hell yeah you do kristen you legend #dimension 20 #fantasy high #fhjy
