Brennan and Aabria taking my Harry Potter traumas and crumpling them into a ball just by having a basic comprehension of abuse before they even do anything else
Did you know it’s not the child’s fault if they’re a barely parented no income abuse victim. Did you know they don’t deserve to be abandoned, neglected, abused, and gaslit by other adults and children, and just because a terrified volatile child doesn’t know how to have friends doesn’t mean they can’t know. People especially young boys don’t fall into fascist pipelines because they themselves were just bOrN eViL, and like btw Joanne the options aren’t evil fascist and holy prefasc/fasc-lite neoliberalism. Acting like fascism is the only alternative to doing also fascism but with the good aesthetics and that none of these kids would leave to be like idk socialists or anarchists or communists, none of them thought of a new thing- that creepy neolib shit Joanne does where it’s like she can’t think of anything truly new so how could any of her characters be expected to think of a political movement not already 2/3 underway via some weird sick old person- show me on the document where thatcher and reagan had radically different beliefs to the genociders they’re parroting. SPOILERS The idea that anyone could be magic blew my whole shit open and it’s one of my favorite things Aabria’s ever done with worldbuilding. Also just with NAMP (Lou was also on this in this beautiful perfect way) like... “how dare you call me a slur that applies to both of us?!!” Joanne, honey,
Oh also- abused children know how to survive mind games with adults. That *_does not mean they are naturally more sneaky, cunning, manipulative, and controlling. They are children trying to survive_* in a world where they are inherently less respected and taken less seriously than the adults around them. Adults tend to believe other adults first. The survival of an abused child isn’t fucking sinister or controlled. They are surviving they are just babies. A child that learned adults can’t be trusted not to hurt them isn’t a manipulative narcissistic fascist because they don’t allow adults to get close to them and won’t trust the adults their peers trust. “Oh the abused child is a bad judge of character” GEE AND I WONDER WHY THEY WOULD BE NOT THE BEST AT READING COMPLEX NON HOSTILE EMOTIONS AS ANYTHING BUT ATTEMPTS TO HARM OR CONTROL THEM WHEN THAT IS ALL THEY HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED FOR ELEVEN YEARS JKR’s the kind of motherfucker that gets offended when a kid doesn’t like her automatically because she did the big gregarious uwu you can trumst me I’m just a big silly girlboss mom. No, b1tch, you’re not so special that people who have known majority pain for the first and only decade of their lives would turn into little orphan Annie around you. Also, kids can tell when adults just deadass will not help them, and especially if they’re in danger, they will not continue to trust those adults, even when they can be surface kind and seem to surface care. Oh my abusers are getting coffee with the headmaster, and their head of house has seen them be incredibly pattern-wise violent to multiple students not just me, and she’s never said anything to them. They made one of their friends the cop on the inside, but they’ve got him by the hairs of his disability and he would be in my position if he ever betrayed them by not letting them fuck people up. Oh my abusers say these creepy old money cowards belong in the house of bravery because they know how to lie to get glory and power, and I’m in the house of manipulating because I know how to not get killed by my dad. Okay. OKAY-
@Glatisant_galla k is nonbinary so their and evan’s relationship is literally inherently queer. also like the person above me queer people can absolutely be in straight relationships what
Honestly i forget just how different evan was in the first episode, it’s truly like he’s never had a good interaction with anyone ever before this episode and picks himself up SO fast
oh gosh misfits and magic is probably my favorite d20 campaign even though it's only 4 episodes long. They really knocked it outta the park with this one in terms of characters and chemistry and just everything.
This series was so special. Part of me wants to see Evan's story adapted to a full-on theatrical film, and part of me thinks that the story couldn't possibly be the same without the awkwardness of improv.
How quickly erika commits to the character choice that dream becomes 4chan tumbler my space obsessed with dark sad boy Even is so funny it kills me every time
I’ve been rewatching seasons of D20 lately, and I forgot just how good this was! It truly marked a new chapter for the show, and just as all of the cast and crew over there have said, Aabria was a game changer. I’m about to queue up the complete experience because of this video, so thank you!
Not sure if you’ve seen, but CastleCaster (on TH-cam) just released a vid analysis on how Aabria changed D20. he has also done a bunch of analysis vids on the other D20 ‘main’ cast members
Societally, she's wrong, but scientifically, she's right. It's fine if you don't agree with her, but you can't just insult someone because you don't agree with them. She has just as much right so free speech as you do. Either way, her books are amazing.
You can, and definitely should insult someone when they start spouting batshit insane opinions online. When you act like an idiot, people have a right to call you out on it. Free speech doesn’t mean you get to say anything you want without criticism. She can say whatever she wants, and I can insult her. Free speech is a two way street.
@@MegaNightmare4 No one said you can't criticize her. You also can't censor her and stop her from criticizing you when you say stupid shit like that it's fair to have men who identify as women play in women's sports leagues or that there's no danger of men pretending to be women to get into the women's restroom to do stuff to little girls and vice versa. She has listed specific examples of this happening on her social media accounts to support her claims. Do you have any evidence to the contrary? And no, vague examples of people saying they feel better after being treated the way they identify doesn't count since it can't be quantified, unlike the multiple scientific studies that show it has no effect on depression and suicidal tendencies.

“Brennan’s eating Brennan’s eating!”
@@Lucifersfursona i think about “brennan’s eating! brennan’s eating!” so much
So I'm curious... did Harry Potter give you trauma, or did you give yourself trauma on account of Harry Potter?
"I'm not a character!" - Evan Kelmp, a character
Right after that: "I'm sorry, I'm just now realizing how trippy it is for Evan Kelmp, the character, to be saying "I'm not a character""
Evan Kelmp was the MVP. Brennan breaks every game he isn't running.
*screaming in Cram Daniels*
Lou just instantly claimed Muggle as their word. One of the best bits in the series!
I love how even when Brennan is trying to lean into the Evan mindset, Lou can still make him break character with a well-delivered line.
loved the "one time a pig's head in the butcher shop told me that god and the devil killed each other." so much
It's so poignant, a single sentence of abject cosmic horror
god i miss these queer teen wizards
Me toooo
God, now I wish more than anything that I'd had a T-shirt that said "Queer Teen Wizard" when I was in high school.😮💨😂
@Glatisant_galla queer teens can be in het relationships
@Glatisant_galla k is nonbinary so their and evan’s relationship is literally inherently queer. also like the person above me queer people can absolutely be in straight relationships what
MISFITS AND MAGIC SEASON 2!!! 9/25/24
dream's mom was truly struggling to make that gentle parenting work
Honestly i forget just how different evan was in the first episode, it’s truly like he’s never had a good interaction with anyone ever before this episode and picks himself up SO fast
Friendship is magic
@@epicgamer-ny4fj and magic is heresy
He got a found family and immediately went into "oh, it's not just MY survival now" bloodhound-golden retriever nightmare-hound mode
My all time fave campaign from dropout. "I'm going to say it. I'm going to say the whole thing." lol
Something about K (then xX_BrokenDream_Xx) saying, “Pull it together, Janet” to her mother takes me tf out every time 😂
erika took me tf out when i first heard them say that was their user because my middle school wattpad user was in the same damn format 😭
i say “hot two” every time i roll a two now thanks brennan
oh gosh misfits and magic is probably my favorite d20 campaign even though it's only 4 episodes long. They really knocked it outta the park with this one in terms of characters and chemistry and just everything.
Isn't seriously only 4? I just started the 4th one and they're nowhere near resolving anything
Is it seriously only 4? I just started the 4th one and they're nowhere near resolving anything
I want another continuation so bad, I rewatch this series at least once or twice every year
Same
The winter special slaps
Season 2 out now
ive missed these sweet children so much
You gotta say it with your whole-ass chest; *we are mug-gles.*
*M U G G L E S*
evan kelmp is so funny bc they react to him like he's the craziest saddest thing ever but i know people like him.
fr 😭
Just... ALL of Erika's reactions. All of them.
If you are just watching this for the first time? I envy you. It is outstanding.
I am!! And kicking myself that it's taken me this long to get to it

How quickly erika commits to the character choice that dream becomes 4chan tumbler my space obsessed with dark sad boy Even is so funny it kills me every time
"4chan tumblr myspace girl" is like saying "the jock nerd prep girl" they're so different
