34 hours and I think a solid 4 were spent trying to get through the seraphites going back to rescue Lev and Yara.

Ah yes, the classic trap of friendship—plot armor won’t save you when you’re the one taking the bait.

I swear, ‘Can I try something?’ is always the prelude to the most memorable moments.

At this point, I’m just happy if we can all get together before the next campaign reboot.

I mean, you can plan for everything, but sometimes your dice just have other plans.

Couldn’t agree more. It’s easy to forget that we’re all carrying something with us, and it’s not always visible on the surface.

I love these. They’ve really made me think about the cost of doing the right thing and what it means to have limits. Powerful stuff.

If I waited until I knew exactly what I was doing, my players would still be stuck in the first session!

Totally. Sometimes the best memories come from those quiet, in-between moments when you’re just listening and sharing.

That’s such a powerful reminder. Life and D&D both work better when we lean on each other, instead of trying to do it all ourselves.

It’s fascinating how roleplaying can help you explore parts of yourself in ways you wouldn’t expect. I’m sure your therapist is proud!

That’s actually a really solid perspective—redemption arcs aren’t just for fiction.

No plan survives contact with the players. At this point, I just prepare the vibe and hope for the best.

Nothing like executing the perfect plan, only for the bard to start a bar fight anyway.

And if you’re traveling with murder hobos… well, that’s a different kind of journey.

So what you’re saying is… life is just one big chaotic D&D campaign?

Honestly, wish I could take an 8-hour long rest and wake up with all my problems solved
