  • 054 – Snake, It’s a Snake

    by

    The party descends down into the maintenance tunnels to follow Grickx’s investigation into the death of his friend. They actually remember to prepare this time, in flagrant disregard for on-site procurement SOP. They even remember to tell people where they’re going! They don’t get any codec frequencies, though. Wealthy experiences a fear in her heart.…

  • 053 – Apparently We Do Negotiate with Distillers

    by

    Aracyne meets with Nara, and tries to plea her case. Nara isn’t so easily moved, however, and will need some convincing. Meanwhile, the rest of the party has a perfectly pleasant time making new friends, training on their new gear, failing to understand business, and learning about the world around them. Wealthy takes a quick…

  • 052 – Sedition

    by

    The party has gathered together, and we join them as they discuss overthrowing the government. They, of course, have no reservations and are ready to engage in the most radical acts and do anything necessary to achieve their goals. Definitely. We also narrowly avoid at least one conversation about accounting. That’s something, right? Totally anticapitalist…

  • 051 – Montage 6: All Good Things Must End (After They Take Forever)

    by

    Our grand experiment in post-modern montage approaches its end. The party achieves some long-awaited goals and gains some new abilities. A sandwich atlatl is proposed. Most importantly, the Prophecy comes to pass. Grickx considers becoming a god. Wealthy bakes bread. Aracyne outlines the conditions under which she’d volunteer to be a practice target. Vons faces…

  • 050 – Montage 5: There Wasn’t Supposed To Be Plot

    by

    It’s our 50th episode! Thanks for sticking with us, and we hope you keep on enjoying our show for a long time to come. 😀 We approach the end of our Bold Experiment in Montage That Transcends the Medium (BEMTTM). The party tries doing new things, like moving shop, engaging in this thing known as…

  • 049 – Montage 4: Laying Foundations, Burning Bridges

    by

    Our prestige miniseries continues with the party pressing on in their training and putting down roots for further growth. There’s study sessions, horrible grandparents, a friend waking up from a borderline coma, and the blowing up of spots! It’s like Gilmore Girls by way of General Hospital! Aracyne finally makes it as an unpaid intern.…

  • 048 – Montage 3: Getting Lucky

    by

    We wrap up week two of four of our montage! A speedy 3 episodes in! Aracyne syncs back up with the time stream, and everyone meets at a bar to catch up. And be mad at each other. Or just awkward. Friendships are complicated, okay? Aracyne violates the return policy. Grickx invests in R&D. Vons’s…

  • 047 – Montage 2: Let’s Stop Searching for People, Huh?

    by

    (We recommend reading the title in Aracyne’s voice for maximum effect.) In the second episode of the montage (shush, you), the remaining party of Grickx, Wealthy, and Vons searches for Aracyne, who’s gone missing on them. Everyone brings their own approach to the task at hand. Some of them even work! Wealthy uses her hat-based…

  • 046 – Aracyne Does A Hit

    by

    We cut away from the party’s montage to cover what Aracyne’s been up to. Turns out it’s not just partying! Instead there’s disguises, stakeouts, copious amounts of poison, and an assassination mission. Which goes completely smoothly and definitely doesn’t break Aracyne’s worldview. Totally. Aracyne spills a drink and gets a new cloak. The GM is…

  • 045 – Montage 1: Expanding Horizons

    by

    We start our highly efficient 4-week montage where the party members train up, make connections, and improve their skills as part of leveling. And cover one whole week. It’s a slow-motion montage. Very high-concept, very avant garde. 100% intentional. >.>;;; Wealthy goes to office hours and meets a fellow researcher. Vons does the grossest thing…
