[cokeofcola]

oh, you’re an authority figure? name every member of the tal’dorei council.

[akkeriworkshop]

It was very on brand of Laura to leave the Game Awards because Sam touched her dice

[CatBATdrklycu]

Travis in Campaign 1: *makes fun of Laura for not trusting certain dice because the universe is uncaring and random. *
Travis now: "Don't you fuckin' touch that blue one."

[MacMiraa]

When Nott said "42 silver that's nothing!" And Caleb responded with "I used to con people for silvers" just hit my heart

[sltmmfy]

"Considering the last 24 hours, if he looks at you sideways we wont leave enough of him to be found." Alright Percy, calm down.

[Zapporah]

"We will be in London in May 2020"
Me, a part of the quarantine catch-up crew: "oops, spoiler alert, no you probably won't."

[lucasm.]

I love that Laura left an awards show that she was nominated in to play D&D with her friends. Her priorities are definitely in order.

[bloodyroar]

Trent: *Glares at Yasha"
Yasha: "I already ripped the wings off of one butterfly this week"

[whocareswhoiam]

I love how Laura is actually relieved she didn't win the award because she chose to ditch the ceremony to go play some dnd 😂

[AlphaOrion]

The contrast between Matt hating mario party vs his face when he learns he’ll be playing smash bro’s is apparent. He’s so happy to destroy his friends in smash and it’s beautiful to behold

[berberaardema]

This episode has both Laura and Jester doing what they do best. Leaving award shows to play D&D and confusing the hell out of important NPC's. Chaotic priorities in order.

[moose]

I love Taliesin's improvised parables because they either end up extremely profound, in line with Caduceus' high wisdom, or they end up completely illegible and convoluted, in line with his low intelligence

[nines]

as a real-life 16 year old, I can indeed confirm that stealing tiny soap for scary monk women is something we do. 10/10 for accuracy

[griffenrobinette]

Caleb: Why would the king want to expose himself like that?
Jester: *Laughs, probably at the thought of the king exposing himself*

[skullsquad]

Its slightly disturbingly terrifying when the most nonhostile characters say stuff like this.
Caduecus: "I feel comfortable saying, if he looks at you sideways, we won't leave enough left for him to be found..."

[nancysorbets]

Trent to Yasha: "I knew there was something special about you..."
Yasha SOOOO almost saying "The last guy who thought that is dead now."
=)

[bdletoast]

*Trent:* (breaths)
*Mighty Nein:* iNsIgHt ChEcK

[Majykman]

Nott: "It used to be called the Squall-Eater, but we changed it."
Martinet: *looks immediately at Jester*
Me: "NOW you're catching on, Bunky..."

[dreniee]

Jester calling Trent Mister Ickythong straight at his face has made my day, bless her.
