"grizzly only makes anime characters" okay?? and Charlie only makes guys who are looking for an excuse to kill themselves?? I only play emo bitches!! its almost like you make characters using concepts you enjoy when you know you'll be playing them for a while. that's how TTRPG works
I think it's so funny when people who have only watched the public campaigns switch to the paid ones and are like. wdym slimecicle also plays normal people
I have been drawing Callie a lot lately lol
i wish motivation to do things i enjoy wouldnt pop up in the middle of the night rather than during the few precious moments of free time i have
im in disbelief at the fact that a lot of folks are simply over palestine. like protests are dwindling down. people are not very interested in news related to gaza. some are simply over it.
israel hasn't let aid in gaza in 70 days. gaza has been starving for 70 days. the condition of people there is horrendous.
i find it distressing to think about children in gaza. how does one continue to have a childhood in a genocide? they don't have school. they don't have safety. they don't have food.
despite all this, the kids will be alright. they'll be alright once the genocide stops and they get back to 'normal'. till then, can we please try to support them however we can?
this fundraiser (verified) helps feed a family which includes two young children. please consider helping their mother take care of them.

decided to move episodes into consecutive reblogs for easier reading!
ep 2 spoilers ahead!
ps: if you read ep 1 from the reblogs it shows everything i had in the post at the time (ep 1 thru partway into ep 3) and its being weird and im too confused to fix it or figure out if i even can lmao so sorry!
0:05:49 troy: "if you need me to say something, i'll say something, if you don't need me to say something, you tell me that and i won't say something i will say that i'm not saying anything." (also note him saying he "needs to stick with [blink]," which on my very first watch i thought was another just weird troy moment but ep 3 & rewatches? troy was all but explicit about how he was told to follow blink lmao) (also also the growth since this moment, where he told blink to ignore the problem w/ finding the inventor so that it's not his problem anymore, vs the current troy who HIMSELF agreed to help aeon)
0:06:01 troy: "as soon as that's over you gotta help me get out of this wacky, wacky hole, cuz these are not my people" blink: "honestly, the sooner the better." troy: "i dont know if we're reading the same book, but we are on the same PAGE at least right now."
0:06:29 troy: "alright so then there's one person who knows where he is?" blink: "yeah and i don't know where she is," troy: "actually wait there's TWO people that knows where he is cuz he knows where he is too, so i'm just trying to think outside of the box.., so if we find him-" blink: "no-"
0:07:49 troy: "this rock'll hold me over for 24 hours but after that, we're gonna need to get up there." blink: "what??" troy: "it's fun to play with" (once again, so real)
0:09:11 (lmao) confusion on yort vs troy identification
0:10:07 troy: (walking in silence for the past 5 minutes) "i'm rich"
0:12:41 blink: "say, um, unrelated, yknow, in the business of coureying- courier- coureying- cor- carrying. yes."
0:14:18 the whole scene w/ troy trying to wake up chopper lmfao
0:16:24 chopper: "you must control your little.. thing" blink: "i cant- i cant. i mean-" yort: "uh dude, i cant fuckin help it man, it goes where it goes."
0:24:50 the girls are fighingg
0:25:14 charlie (as yort): "dude my AC is 16, but i would never expect it from you, dude. so my mouth is wide open"
0:26:11 blink: (drunk asf) "theres someone over there!" runt: "oh this is fu- NO THERES NOT!!" blink: "nevermind.."
0:28:10 yort: "HE'S COOKIN IT! GET DOOOWWNN" (dives under table)
0:29:11 troy once again showing that he's not awful, showing concern and urging chopper to get help and hyping him up
0:29:34 yort: "let me get you some water dude, i'm gettin him some water" chopper: "that is not water" yort: "alright, more for me"
0:29:57 troy being an absolute dumbass and blink being too drunk to understand what's going on
0:30:45 runt: "awright cheesebawls" (SHE APPEARS!!) "you need me." then instantly got told off by troy, she gives him a wet willy
0:32:28 runt: (about troy's sled) "i gotta get inside this-" yort: "no, you're not getting inside that, i will literally fuckin eat you kid."
0:32:47 barkeep: "yeah we're gonna, uh, maybe no kids in the bar? i heard something about a kid?" runt: "i'm not a fucking kid okay? i just look small" yort: "she just looks young because you're fucking drunk FUCK OFF-"
0:33:42 yort: "alright, library's this way. listen, ambiguously aged rat, what is your name??" runt: "eeh not- not so fuckin fast, if i tell you my name right now you're just gonna forget it, okay? hold on, lemme see if theres some kinda way- maybe i got somethin here-" yort: "that's act- no that's actually- i appreciate you saying that cuz i don't give a fuck" and troy threatening to eat her again
0:34:46 runt: "names runt. what's yours?" yort?: "uhhhh, fuck, i dont remember" blink: "yort, he's yort, he's yort" runt: "what's your fathers name?" yort?: "im yort. an my fathers name is uh yort. the junior- fuck- i fucked it up." /.../ runt: "and your name is yort?" yort: "im where the yort's at" runt: "what the fuck is a yort??" yort: "dude that's what i've been fuckin askin this whole time!"
0:36:24 random person: (to blink) "yeah it's me, we did that- we did that job, where we delivered the packages over to the.. water treatment... are you? you look- you're blinking a lot- i mean, i guess your name is blin- just squinting too and looking at me strangely- what are you- what are you- go- stop touching my face- stop touching- i don't- why are you doing- stop, that tickles! the feathers tickle! stop stop stop! stop okay!" /.../ blink: "OHH i know you yeah okay"
0:37:58 cocktopolis and also yort: "dude, all i'm saying- what's up- what's up, i'm fuckin, i'm 25, my name's yort, im from cocktopolis. now lets go burn down a library."
0:39:34 runt: "he's gonna want to meet me, trust. and ill sign an NDA!" blink: "sure, yeah, legal documents" runt: "plus, how m- how mu- how much do you even read? you don't look like the readin type. you DEFINITELY don't look like the reading type" yort: "yah, no, i mean not really but i do have some NDAs here"
0:47:17 the almost all three of them rolling nat 20s but troy rolling a nat 1 instead
this is a collection of all my favorite moments, scenes, interactions, and so on (as well as interesting observations that ive noticed through my multiple rewatches) from wonderlust. this is mostly for myself lmao
NOTE: so far, i only got thru ep 1 because. im tired and its almost 4 am lmao. i do wanna get thru all the eps for this tho so :3
style conventions(so i rember qwq): things are listed chronologically, by episode, with timestamps (h:mm:ss). i also (vaguely) color coded dialogue, just the PCs w/ their colors (troy in red, runt in purple, blink in green). if there is dialogue between the lines im highlighting, there will be "/.../" followed by the next line im including. finally, additional notes/thoughts/etc from me will be in small text, italicized parenthases (like this)
this will be updated as i rewatch episodes or watch new episodes :]
WARNING: beyond this point, there WILL be spoilers. proceed at your own risk!
ps: if there is anything that isnt here that you think is worthy, feel free to add on! also, there are very likely typos and/or formatting errors so. oopsie :3 (did try my best to make sure there werent)
pps: many of these will likely involve troy because im so brainrot for this guy but i do really love them all and their dynamics :3
0:06:14 troy: "well then- the the fuckin uh, i gue- i guess they'll- i guess they'll fuckin- i guess when they- i guess-"
0:07:42 baby's first troy math
0:11:50 the incident
0:17:30 troy: "my names troy and i'm never gonna die!" (this note was taken when ep 23 was the latest--so far its true, but i suppose we'll see if it continues to do so)
0:37:30 this whole interaction with runt and her cousins is just adorable and i lobv it
0:45:43 ♪♫ you gotta be careful, little runt ♫♪
0:46:40 runt: "you're goddamn right uncle threestrings, why don't they give you a record deal?" uncle threestrings: "....... hohh.." (also charlie's face during this reacting to the song lmfao)
0:47:22 uncle threestrings: "if you don't come back-" runt: "ah-" uncle threestrings: "-if you don't-" runt: "i will come back." uncle threestrings: "i just need to know somethin... how many cups do ya think they got up there?"
0:58:06 pinch: "doppler we need to break this thing or somethin-" runt: "no, don't- don't break it :[" /.../ runt: "i wanna keep it!"
1:14:24 runt: "they got this big fuckin circle in the sky too, what the fuck is that?" uncle threestrings: ".. circle? who made that?" runt: "i don't know!" uncle threestrings: "how'd they put it there?"
1:28:08 cut: "she want another one?" blink: "gran- yeah, granny granite wants a slice of cake, she took my package. you know how it is, this happens every time!" cut: "i'm gonna run out, i'm gonna run out, she's just gonna eat it all-" blink: "how! how are you gonna run out?! what do you mean-" cut: "she's just gonna eat it all!" blink: "but she's so old and slow!" (i love blink's outbursts lmfao)
1:33:05 immediate simping for aeon as her design is revealed ("id let her beat me up" lmfao)
1:37:07 (realizing i didn't put together before how he somehow got his steamsled back, obv upon rewatch i know it's because of his capture but just interesting to think about how that slipped by me the first time and catching it in subsequent watches)
1:37:51 baby's first "YOU DUDE" blink: (starts running) troy: "don't play hard to get with me dude, i'll fucking catch you, i'll fucking catch you no matter how fuckin long you run i will keep running, i'm an endurance animal of a human being" (sprinting) "you can flee now- i can track you, dude"
1:39:45 (cont. from scene above, somewhat) troy: "dude, there's no need to be such a fucking freak-" blink: "what the fuck-" troy: "-i'm just trying to talk to you-" blink: "-what the fuck are you-" troy: "-i just wanted to say... i just wanted to tell you that i'm fuckin cool, and you have gotta run with me, dude, if you wanna make it down here."
1:40:31 troy believes he's at furcon, blink calls him fantasy slurs (also he "loves birds" wauw)
1:42:17 here troy says that blink's his only ticket out, and when blink asks why him troy says he's not supposed to tell him :0
1:43:06 troy: "oh, yeah, i do have a combrussion"
1:47:00 bizly: (rolls a two against troy & blink's stealth) "dude, a two, a TWO, you're fine! you're fine." charlie (in troys voice): "yah, dude i fuckin know,"
1:49:06 the making of yort (& knilb)
1:50:12 blink: "let's-let's tackle this one thing at a time, okay?" troy yort: "alright, dude, i'm fuckin, i'm yort"
1:51:45 troy yort: "have you ever heard the saying, one guy's trash is another dude's.. fuckin,,.. coo- like- fuckin shit."
1:52:22 blink: "i don't wanna- i'm gonna be frank, the more you talk, the more i don't want to help you." troy yort: "dude, who the FUCK is frank, dude? why do you wanna be him? we already got you a cool name??"
1:54:09 troy yort: "cogs? we literally, like, live, breathe, and eat cogs up there, man. i mean, we also use it as money, but you know what i mean. we DONT eat, breathe, or live it, we just use it as money."
1:54:40 cloudspire hoohah rise up
1:54:46 blink: "what are you saying??" troy yort: "dude, you are just ridiculous, man, i-i don't even know where to start. i mean like, so basically, i'm like the shit."
1:55:12 just a straight roll like man and woman missionary fuckin dude fucking a woman straight roll troy yort: "honestly sometimes i think about guys"
1:57:20 (i just love how, even tho troy JUST met blink, he's already so willing to back him up. he doesn't quite understand when he DOES need to stand down but i think it does show he's never been a fully awful person.)
1:57:57 blink: "well we got some, uh, some tetanus shots in here. a few of them have been poked by granny- granny granite, so be careful about that, she's very pokey." arch: "wouldn't want anyone to catch whatever she's got, hahaha!" troy yort: "i'm not sayin anything" baby's first i'm not sayin anything (this whole interaction is so fuckin funny to me)
2:00:42 troy yort: "i don't understand why this is happening?!" blink: "i already told you!!" troy yort: "i didn't say anything!" blink: "you kept saying you weren't saying anything!!!" troy yort: "i thought that's what you wanted!! you need to be CLEAR!!"
2:02:36 bizly: "a blunt arrow comes whizzing by your head." charlie (as troy yort): "fuckin what i just smoke it" once again charlie is possessed by troy
2:06:28 the bit with the old woman and her dead husband's pan and her second husband
2:09:18 graphite's rock and the painting (troy yort keeping the rock after too is so real, i love rocks :3)
2:11:36 troy: "hey graphite, dude, can i level with you?" graphite: ".... suuuuure?" troy: "alright, sick, cuz i think i get some hp from that. maybe some other little goodies." graphite: "you just say things, don't you?" troy: "troy"
oh my god also !! i meant to ramble about how he seems to not care about his own wellbeing. this is more hc-ish but still. the way he always says he can take it, or how he doesn't seem concerned with taking care of his wounds
but he is always concerned about the rest of the team's wellbeing, he asks if they're okay (esp runt when her cough acts up) and just generally seems to prioritize that more.
just the things that does to me like omg. i love him
ACTUAL BRAINWORMS AHEAD ABOUT TROY
i like actually have SO many thoughts about troy yall dont understand. i have so much to say that i dont remember ANY OF IT TO PUT HERE.
its also been to the point that like. its all i think about. its so bad rn too bc i ran outta both my antidepressants and adhd meds (fuck pharmacies theyre all a pain in the ass omg) and so my brain is this mushy slurry of just. troy troy troy wonderlust runt troy troy blink troy. i literally could not focus at work today i had to write in my journal so that i didn't implode.
anyways after this point there are spoilers so dont read on. i woulda tagged it but this post is gonna be so rambly and full of my brainworms that i dont know if i wanna tag this at all lmao. so anyways yeah brainrot brainworms warning if you read ahead,
so yeah i have some like ideas on what troys whole deal is (besides being our [recovering :3] asshole nepo baby).
like first of all, 100% trans coded (like all of charlies characters, like wtf how is this cis guy better at being trans than i am??). please let it be canon i am begging
second, im torn between the theories of him being a little clockwork guy or being a hybrid (like runt and blink n the reclaim guys). its hard to tell what's cannon and what is troy mode comedy shit, but it seems like we may not have ever canonically? gotten a description/confirmation of what is actually under troys suit, and obviously not what may be under his skin. if he is a hybrid that could have some really fucked up connotations asw
third, whats his deal with his family? it's basically been confirmed that his mom's dead (or otherwise just OUT of the picture). his dad is around, for a bit i was SO convinced his dad was gonna be the inventor. either way, whats the deal between them? just nepo neglect? or something worse? i have a feeling either way i WILL be ugly crying. again. to jrwi. about a charlie character. and also siblings?? he said he had a brother. but then when the yort appeared he said he always wanted a brother? so maybe bad relationship there too?
also??? like his character growth?? the amount he has started to be able to convey his respect and care for the team. i love the little part about runt having an actual feeling of looking up to him when they sled down the mountain. they are so sibling coded. troy and blink's little arc was so good too (also like. malewife troy. all im saying about that). and his whole thing in ep 22, the way he was able to twist the perceptions people have of him, and even the fucked up shit he has done, to manipulate (gaslight gatekeep girlboss) his way through that situation. and the team letting him take the reigns!!!!! anyways this makes me wanna compile a list of my fave quotes/interactions/moments/etc from the campaign. i just might.
i genuinely dont know why im SO attached to this goddamn character. theoretically? i should hate him. he is like, literally antithetical to everything i am and stand for. literally a foil to who i am as a person. but like???? idk. as ive said before he's the first character ive ever understood and felt the "i can fix them" thing about lmao. and he has shown character growth,
and to me he seems. misguided? maybe even hurt? by those around him. it seems like those who should have nurtured him failed him. and like. i really empathize that. i kinda feel that a little too much (but from a different lens bc i am the furthest thing from a nepo baby lmfao). and not to psychoanalyze him (more), it seems to me that maybe deep down he thinks very lowly of himself. bro is literally prince charming but was surprised when aeon called him pretty boy?? like i mean obv, he's not the brightest guy around, but i also think he should give himself more credit where its due, and he might not appreciate his achievements enough and seems to beat himself down when he doesnt reach his own standards. he also seems very touch starved (or just. any [authentic] slightly positive interaction starved in general)
or maybe im just projecting too hard onto him oops lmao. thats the vibe i get tho
if you read all this i think youre probably just as ill as i am about this guy and like. respect. or maybe youre just bored or thought there would be something smart in here, in which case i deeply apologize for my word vomit
anyways i think im gonna go rewatch wonderlust from the start for like the fifth time. or riptide for the like 12th (god give us our funy lil pirates back!!!) because. i lobv them
