YA

I’ve been seeing taz fanart and stuff all over my dash for MONTHS I’m shocked it took me this long to get into it.

something about the collision of storytelling and the medium is extraordinary it's a Lot. & griffin talking abt the vulnerability inherent in making this a Podcast is wonderful!!

It’s so so great. He’s def talked about how he prioritizes a coherent story over a more traditional d&d “fuck it do whatever” kind of vibe, but I really kind of love that? My friend who DMs our game is an incredible storyteller and has a whole arc for each of our characters and a bigger story that’s really great but he is very generous when it comes to giving us our autonomy, to the point where sometimes he preps a big involved encounter and we just like...walk right by it? It’s really really cool to listen to a campaign that’s more structured and strict about sticking to the main narrative. That said, I love that the essence of d&d is still very much there. Taako conning Garfield out of the flaming raging poisoning sword of doom was like Grade A classic d&d shit. Someone always has to break the game.

i want to play d&d with you

LISTEN. This podcast is putting my faith back in remote d&d-ing? So I would actually seriously be into an internet-based game. I love d&d so much. 

Also fyi in case anyone wants to know what sort of d&d player I am, the character I’ve been playing for like 5 years is a TOTAL MAGNUS. Like exactly Magnus. I rush in. It’s super dumb.

i have literally wandered around my apartment muttering these exact words to myself in random fits of pique

I just finished reading The Raven King and feel slightly dissatisfied but also unprepared for my time with these characters to be over. I would love some TRC fic recs!

I haven’t read a ton of Raven Cycle fic, so this is NOTexhaustive, but here are a few great ones! All of these are Adam/Ronan.

giddygeek, Drive It Like You Stole It, 14K. “He wants you,” Gansey said bluntly. Adam sucked in abreath, feeling the words in his whole body. “I’m not saying Cabeswater can doanything about that. But I think it’s important to wonder if it might.”

momebie(katilara), All I Hear is Your Song, 15k. Ronan’s lungs feel tight. He’s not actually worried aboutwhat any of these idiots will think of him for being who he is. It’s just thatit’s none of their fucking business. It’s that Adam’s whole survival planhinges on going unnoticed in most places. Ronan knows that accepting thekindness of the ticket is a big step for him. Accepting Ronan himself is evenbigger. It seems selfish to push for more. Also, dances are still stupid.

mrsronweasley,Simmer Down and Pucker Up, 11K. He blinked and,behind the boat shoes and tan ankles, Adam’s face grew into sharp focus. He waslooking straight at Ronan. His eyes were round, shocked into completestillness. His cheeks were pink. One hand curled around grass, and Ronan watched,with a slow dawning of awareness, the way Adam’s knuckles grew white as he tightenedhis hold on the ground. Cabeswater, Ronan realized. Cabeswater had takenhis dream and shared it with the only other person who could ever be closeenough to Cabeswater to see it.

nimmieamee, Son of the Nuclear A-Bomb, 37K. Ronan said,“My father can’t die. They can’t make a coffin big enough for myfather.” “Your father could make a coffin big enough for yourfather,” said the man. “Your father could make a coffin big enoughfor the whole wide world.”

nimmieamee, Wonderterror Weekend, 49K. Adam Parrishgets Saturday off and spends the day falling in love with Ronan Lynch. He alsospends it fighting monsters, visiting Europe, and traumatizing people. Butfalling in love with Ronan Lynch is the part he chooses.

My psa every time I do a rec list: if you like any of these fics, please leave kudos and a comment for the author when you’re done!
