What happened to those old sidekick teams that we made a few episodes ago? Well, today we're gonna answer that and more. Me specifically. I'll be entering that as today's game master Joshua Noel.

This is a first episode in a series we're gonna try to do. Geeks on a roll. We're gonna be playing a game.

We have some characters from our cross the omniverse that we all love and walk through a story that I made up. So this could be a scary, scary episode. We're gonna go into my brain.

And of course, I am here with the one and only original magic head pastor Will Rose. Will, how's it going?

Feeling rounded?

Yeah, yeah. You're looking at. Looking at.

Yeah.

Another friend of ours who looks pretty well rounded is the one and only Christian Ashley. How's it going?

All right.

Yeah.

And we are all brought together, of course, from the mysterious powers that you don't even need the dice for. It's like a Nat 20 when you have the pot almighty. TJ Tuber is one Blackwell on RN.

Jesus himself.

Yeah, yeah. Which I do have some dice. I was gonna do it like a web app, guys, but I'm just gonna roll it.

So if you guys hear the sound of dice rolling or something like this is still kind of experimental. Not entirely sure what it's gonna sound or look like. So you guys are gonna just hang in there with us as our first episode.

So we're leaving lots of room for error. It's gonna be kind of like a DND pod, but not. Yeah. So introducing ourselves now we're gonna go into what we've been geeking out on.

I'm gonna try and be pretty quick with this one. Actually. Been reading a lot of comics lately.

Been reading the Christopher Priest run of Black Panther for another episode and didn't stop where I was supposed to. Just been. Kept reading. So geeking out on some Black Panther lately, Will, what have you been geeking out on lately?

Hey, I am geeking out on a new cat.

We have a cat named Java that we are fostering that she's a little twitchy, a little skittish, but a purr machine and hops on my lap and chest and purrs and nuzzles my chin. And that's a good way to stay in our household. I don't think I'm going to let you go into another house. I think you're mine now. From now on, Java.

And then I will say on across the Bifrost, Ryan, we have a pretty cool guest coming up.

That we may interview this week that I'm really excited about a creator, a pretty big Marvel creator out in the world that could be the author of the current run of Thor. We'll see. Pretty excited about that. Those are things.

If you're wanting three more purring cats, you know, we just got four. And talk my, my wife into getting rid of these. I'm okay with it.

You want seven more cats?

Sorry. D.J. what have you been like?

Lost?

The TV show?

The TV show? Yeah. I realized I never finished it. And it's time. Also, man, TV shows used to be long like prime time tv.

It was a better time. You could tell the story regularly. Remember that? I haven't finished it and I think, man, I wish I wouldn't have started that.

Christian, what do you be? I just don't like Lost. I don't like like most of things A.J. abrams did, which is actually part of this episode. J.J. abrams will be coming up soon.

God help us all.

You know, there's a reason he has his title. There's a reason.

I saw We Bury the Dead not too long ago. And that is a horribly mismarketed film. It's not really a horror film. It's more of a drama film. And by drama I mean over dramatic. I'm not a fan.

Shall we say it's because he's so dramatic. Anyway, we're gonna. Yep, right on. We have a lot to get through. Fun game to play.

But we do want to remind you guys if you can to please rate and review our show wherever you're listening. Usually only takes a few seconds. It does a lot as far as like getting the word out about our show and helping us to continue to do this.

So we appreciate it. We also appreciate all of our financial sponsors. Today I want to shout out Gunner Burgum and Frank Trogler.

I'm struggling with these names but we appreciate you.

If you guys want to hear me struggle with your name, you get your own shout out by becoming an official member of Systematic Ecology on our website in the show's description. Same website. If you don't want to become a member or if you want to just become a free member. You got other free content over there.

We got merch, T shirts, mugs, all kinds of stuff. Of course you can also leave just a one time tip if you don't want anything and just sort of like, yeah, I just want to give them some money.

You could do that. Fine. Also, as the series continue, we are gonna have a playlist.

There will be a link below Today we're just gonna link some of the other episodes that are a background to today's episode. Background story. Episodes where we created some sidekick teams and talked through a thing, but we didn't play through anything. So today we're gonna.

We're gonna play. Today we're gonna play.

So this story is gonna deal with the ramifications of our other missions that, you know, Will and TJ gave me and Christian a mission. We had a psychic team and played through it or talked through it. Christian and I came up with the story. You guys sort of talked through it.

You guys talked most of the way through it. I gave too many things that I don't think Will knew what they were.

Yes, you did.

I did.

So we're gonna get more into stuff that Will doesn't know today.

Simple as good.

So we get too far into it.

Simple and clean.

Yeah.

Extra points already. There we go. Before we get into anything else, you know, I know TJ does a lot of D and D. I'm gonna throw this question to him.

Why do we enjoy making teams or having teams in media? And then why do we enjoy playing, like, just plain stories?

Two wholly different questions. I think that humans are inherently social creatures. Just based on all of history and being able to just try out new stuff and teams. It's good time.

It's fun to be a part of a team. I feel like most people agree with that. Not a super controversial statement. Most people who don't agree with that play tennis, so.

Or ping pong. Tj, Christian, Will, anything to add about why we love teams? All we like to play through stories. Anything. Yeah.

I love role playing.

I love playing D and D. I'm in campaign right now, and it's just so much fun to have different ideas of because different players play a different way. I'm the role player. I like getting in conversation with people and exploring what the DM is trying to bring into the world through these NPCs.

And also talking with party members and encouraging them to get a little more into it. It's also nice to have people who just like combat. You have some people who just like social interactions. You have some people just like shopping.

It brings a lot of people together to do different things together, but they find something they can like out of it.

Yeah. Yeah. It's good stuff.

Yeah, I'll build on that too. That I think TJ talking about we're social creatures, but I also think that we're also in terms of how we're wired.

Wired for story and Making meaning out of stories. So if you could do teamwork, social interactions along with collaborative storytelling, I think you get all the best worlds coming, coming together.

And I. Teamwork is hard. Is. Is challenging working with other people.

That's the irony and the challenge of being human is that we're social creatures and we long to belong and be a part of teams. But it's also a lot of hard work and sometimes it doesn't always work out.

And that's why you need coaches and work through difficulty and, and you learn lessons along the way of how to be who you're called to be and how to be human.

And I think these role playing games, board games, D and D, are a good, good exercise and practice and how to live your life and interact with others out in the world. Even though it's fantasy collaborative storytelling, I think it, it's a parable of how, how to, how to live out in the world.

Yeah, I'm going to add that too, because part of why I want to do a story that was ramifications that led to a whole new series going to be doing is pretty similar.

Like, I think a lot of times what's cool in stories when we have actual ramifications because it allows us to think about like, oh, wait a minute, why did I do that in the game? Do I do things like that in real life? And I think in the same way the story always does this.

But I think playing through it almost makes it more personal. Maybe. Perhaps.

Absolutely.

At least in video games, I feel that way. I haven't done a lot of role playing, so I'm not sure how it translates, but I feel like it does.

So I gave you guys parameters for today's team across the Omniverse.

You are allowed to pick one scientist character, a magician character, and then two or two characters who are best friends and one angel watcher, whatever, from the Book of Enoch, our favorite book that should be canonized in the Bible, but isn't it? That's a joke. I think I'm the only one who believes that. Except for maybe tj. I'm not sure. Not sure where TJ falls with that one.

I don't think he cares one way or the other.

Cool book. I don't know.

Should be like, he doesn't care either way. Yeah. But anyway, you guys want to. Want to tell us who you picked, why you picked them, etc?

Sure.

Let's start with science. Who did y' all pick for your scientist?

Yeah, a little backstory. I mean, Joshua threw this at us and Then in a group text, we were trying to bat back and forth some things.

We voted and, you know, badged some things around somebody. Like, I like that one. I don't know much about that one. What we'll do.

I threw out Dr. Doom just because, hey, we just had a big one world under doom event with comics. We got a Doomsday coming up. Dr. Doom's one of my favorite villains of all time in the Marvel universe.

And then he is also nuanced in a sense that, you know, is he always a villain? Does he think he's always. He thinks he's always doing good or knows better than everybody else. And yet he's still the godparent of Valerie Richards.

So, like, he. He knows how to be a good godparent. I think at least in the last one World under Doom, he knows how to be a good godparent.

And so, yeah, he's just interesting character. And I can't wait to see how they do him in the mcu. And he's the first one came to mind.

Yeah.

He could also make a magic sorcerer superpower, but at his base and root, a science.

Yeah. Yeah.

And yeah, I have a soft spot in my heart for Dr. Doom, Christian and I actually did a review of one of my favorite comics a while back on all reading counts. I think it was me and Christian might have been someone else, but it was Dr. Doom. Dr. Doom. And I wasn't even in it. That's funny. Dr. Doom and Dr.

Strange.

That's hilarious.

But that's awesome.

You're pulling to me, Joshua. You're inserting yourself into things.

Wants to introduce the magic character you chose.

Well, you can't go wrong with the wizard. Perennial wizard.

Yeah.

And this was exactly the one Will was thinking about.

Yes. So because of what the story is, this is the one that makes the most sense. Yeah.

Yeah.

Well, that applies in a lot of cases. And there's just. We really didn't argue a lot.

Yeah, no, this is the OG he's kind of the OG wizard out there and did some deep dive in reading. Interesting backstory, interesting history from the 12th century and shape shifting. Not just, you know, Disney character.

He's definitely been around a long, long time.

But yeah. Is a Kingdom Hearts character thing about him. Go ahead.

Well, the great thing about Merlin is that since the Arthurian mythos are solo overplace, written by multiple different authors, we can make him whatever we want to be.

Since he is a Kingdom Hearts character, though, I just want to say. I want to say that in the story. I made something happen before you chose Merlin. And it just so happens that having Merlin makes it just so perfect.

If you happen to stumble upon something. I just wanted to say ahead of time, I did write out what was gonna happen before y' all chose Merlin. Yeah. All right. Two best friends.

Christian, you haven't introduced one yet. Tell us why. Why Calvin and Hopps.

I'm the worst person for this.

Will tell us why. Calvin and Hops, recent reader. You go ahead. This.

I think TJ should. Because TJ is the one who picked this. I. I picked another freezer duo that we loved. No, no. I really wanted Troy community.

I also wanted Troy and all that. But I wasn't disappointed with this.

Yeah. TJ did this. I was like, absolutely. And so I reread some of this last night to get ready for this, and absolutely love it. So, yeah, Big fan, tj. What.

What.

What made this come to mind?

It's Calvin and Hobbes.

Well, you should have known that was gonna.

That is accurate. Yeah, he's right.

That's why I asked.

It's also because he's a Calvinist. That's a joke. He's not. All right.

I'm a hobby.

I'm barely a character. I asked you guys for some kind of supernatural character from the Book of Enoch. This one we are gonna make. Christian, do.

Tell us who you chose and why. Yeah.

So none of mine got picked, but this was an excellent choice by Will for Raphael. That being, you know, the archangel Raphael from the Apocrypha. You got him in the book of Tobit. You've got him in the book of First Enoch.

And known as one of the angels of healing, which always got to have a dedicated healer on your team.

Yeah. Yeah. And also is a character in Supernatural, so, you know, ends up being relevant to the story that's going to be told here in a minute anyway.

Awesome. Well, do y' all want to say anything about anything else about these characters, why you chose them or what. What they mean to you?

Are we ready to jump into some play?

Let's try something to play. I. I'll say. I. I like the challenge of picking a team. I mean, I did this with Ryan over across the Bifrost. We.

We did a draft of our favorite X Men and shape your own X Men team and the characters you choose for whatever theme you want to do. It's always just fun pulling together a team. If you want to get me to jump on a new comic book that I'm not. I'm not.

That jumped off of it because you lost the.

The plot in some ways along the way, if you put together a good team on the COVID and say, hey, all new, all different, brand new team, I'm buying that number one and I'm going to read it because I just love to see how they pull a team.

Nice. Nice. All right, then it is time to play. And this is the part we've never done on this podcast before. So you guys are going to hang in there with us.

I do want to say, because time restraint, we're not going to do like a lot of D and D where we're going to roll each fight scene and like take turns doing a fight. We're gonna kind of keep it more obscure.

Just kind of, you know, third party view, God view of the story, if you will, instead of a more of a first person like you typically see background for the story before. So also, I do want to ask you all to try to be real with your characters, what they would or would not know. Don't play as yourself.

Play as your characters. That's what I am asking, please. Because I think it's more fun that way. All right, background.

J.J. abrams played the Kingdom Hearts franchise and somehow got a hold of the Kingdom Hearts 4 plot. And now somehow Xehanort has returned. Somehow Xehanort has returned. And as Xehanort has returned, he's become aware of a few things.

There have been some rips in the Omniverse, including one in the realm of darkness that he's very familiar with. And he has begun exploring why these rifts occurred, what is going on?

And in his exploration, he discovered more princesses so he can have a new seven Princesses of Heart. He also has discovered that there is such thing as a soul, and it's actually more powerful than a heart.

And his goal now is to collect souls, get the Princesses of Heart together so that he can have the Chi Blade and fill Kingdom Hearts, whatever that may be. No one knows. With souls to become super powerful. Because that would be fun. Yeah.

And for the record, with the drinking game of me drinking every time I suspended that, it just counts as one. I do have a Diet Coke, not anything else. So I. I'm just.

I may have to take a pee break here in a few minutes, but other than that, I think just one big Kingdom Hearts.

I want to ask you guys, for clarity before we get into it, when you come across characters that you guys would recognize, would you prefer me to just have what their name is now and let you guys figure out who they are? Would you prefer me just tell you who they are? Just no doubt who they are.

With that then, simplicity, your characters that you've chose suddenly appear before Crowley and Rick Sanchez. Crowley? From the Supernatural franchise began speaking, of course. Bloody hell. Another angel? You always bring me an angel. He's like.

I'm sure you guys are wondering why you're here. My realm has been invaded by some, I don't know, old man who thinks he can displace God. It's just a whole thing. He has an away. Inator. Just.

It's just bloody awful. He has taken over Hell, My kingdom. I need a fix. So there's been rifts in the Omniverse. I did some traveling.

I discovered one of the rifts led here to this Technarchy. My good friend Rick here invented most of this place. He's the founder. I talked him into helping me. We made a deal.

He didn't believe there were angels. I introduced him to an angel. And now he won't stop bringing me bloody angels. Anyway, I proved it. He owed me one.

He created a device that would bring the perfect team to me for exactly what we need. Lay it out. This man Xehanort is trying to collect power from souls and open a portal to the kingdom. Hearts.

He needs seven Princesses of Heart to do this. And that's where you come in. I need your help intercepting the Princesses of Heart so he doesn't get them. So I can get him out of my bloody world.

As he's talking, a woman in a white and gray coat who, since TJ Requested. You guys do recognize her as Zannah, the former apprentice to Darth Bane. Her name now, of course, is Hexanas.

She whispers something into Crowley's ear, and he proceeds with a. Well, we will need to take care of that. Rick, show them what they need. I have to go. Rick Sanchez. Belches. It was.

I can't wait to be done with this stupid. You know. He starts cursing and saying whatever, right? He begins going down a long, dark hallway. You're. Everything's chrome.

Because, you know, the future. Everything's chrome. According to Squidward. Makes it accurate. Do you guys follow Rick? That's first question.

I don't want to tell you guys what your characters are doing. Okay?

Yeah, I think so.

I mean.

I have something to say.

Yeah. I feel like Dr. Doom. I feel like Dr. Doom is always the one who thinks he's the smartest person in the room.

So I think he's sizing up Rick to see, like, who is he about what is he doing? And he's either asking questions or looking at him with like a conceited look in his eye.

I don't know if Doom or Merlin could overhear what was whispered in the ear. I don't know if we need to roll on that because they're pretty perceptive and our wizards and use magic, you know, super tech stuff. No one heard it.

Okay, I guess I'm World Net one there.

The hops didn't see the speech bubble.

There's the thought bubble.

They didn't see a thought bubble.

They could have seen it. That's a good point. But yeah, I think. I think they all follow with.

With Dr. Doom leading the way, sizing up Ricks and Chaz as maybe competitor in in Intelligence.

Rick barely humors this. He just wants you guys to be gone because he just doesn't care about any of this. None of it means anything. Who cares about souls. Whatever.

Wow, what a perfect encapsulation of.

I think Rick really just does not care. Anyway, he brings you to the ships and says, I just need you guys to take one and leave me alone. In fact, you could also take Jerry if you want.

Nope, nope, I do not want Jerry.

He brings you. You have six ships to choose from. Your characters might not recognize these ships, but for you guys. So you guys will know these ships.

One is the Serenity from Firefly.

Also, he did explain to you that he has attached the same technology from the portal gun and all these so they can do the travel to all the different universes that you need to do. So you have Serenity from Firefly. You have the blue police box, the TARDIS space cruiser, Rick's ship. He just made another one. The USS Beagle.

Lower decks. The alternative dimension version of the. The ship you see in the last season, the Razor Crest, Mandalorian's first ship.

And of course you see a gummy ship. That's explained to you. You can make it look however you want. It's a gummy ship, which is Kingdom Hearts reference for Will.

Christian. Since you weren't able to pick any of our characters in your outfit, I'll let you pick. I think you should pick the ship.

Whatever ship is on your heart right now, buddy, go for it.

Well, I'm torn between the Star Trek Beagle and the gummy ship. My ideas being is that Star Trek tec if I remember the last time, because fandoms always fight each other.

I think Star Trek tech is a little bit more advanced in Star Wars.

Also, if you choose the Beagle and my beagle howls. It would be comedic timing, but I.

Think what would be advantageous to us is choosing the gummy ship because they're so modifiable. So if we encounter something along the way we can't get past, there's always a chance.

We could always rebuild the ship way better and easier, especially if Chip and Dale are around. You know, if we can do that.

You get Chip and Dale just because you mentioned them, and I want that to happen.

I'm going gummy ship.

Good choice. Good choice.

Cool. Cool. You guys were told who the seven princesses were. I just forgot to tell you that. I told you. That's how it works.

The new seven Princesses of Heart that they're after is, of course, Princess Fiona from Shrek.

We have Vivi from Alabasa in one piece, Princess Leia from Star Wars, Galadriel from Lord of the Rings, Elizabeth Swan from Pirates of the Caribbean, Princess Bubblegum, and then one Princess Tiana who should have been in Kingdom Hearts 3, and they dropped the ball. So we're picking it up here, and.

The picture we see on the screen is a young Clador El from Rings of Power, not necessarily from Lord of the Rings.

Yeah, same concept. I just meant Middle Earth. I didn't want to have to go through. Explain all that. Yeah, yeah.

No, no. She's. Yeah, she's. She. I'll follow her. I'll follow her.

Yeah, I would, too.

Anyway, so speaking of following her, is that where you're all going to try to go? Where are you going? What are you doing?

Can we ask Merlin? Should we ask Merlin where? Where Merlin?

That's the thing, though. It's like, do we go after the one who's at most risk here of being kidnapped and go by threat level? Like, is this.

It also depends on where in time they're trying to attack these princesses because they're attacking Princess Leia, right? Then she's not going to be as able to defend herself as, like, Princess Leia, who's trained as a Jedi.

Well, I'm not sure if their characters. Just to be exact, I'm not sure your characters know who any of these people are. We have. Other than Merlin, we have Raphael. Merlin would know Tiana.

Yeah. Raphael doesn't just have all knowledge.

It works with God. Direct source.

Nah, it's true. But do we know any of Xehanort's plan at all?

You just know he's trying to intercept the princesses so that he can open a portal to Kingdom Hearts and use it with souls to get power. Yeah.

So we don't know the order he plans to grab them in. Who's the most at risk. None of that. Crowley didn't know.

It's all going to happen approximately at the same time. He has lots of teams going for him. He's not personally going to the princesses.

Let's go get Glad Royale. And then we have Space man Spiff driving the gummy ship.

All right.

Do Calvin and Hobbs break the fourth wall a lot?

I don't know.

They're just.

They're just.

They're.

They're all in. All in Calvin's imaginations. His head. He's imagining all kinds of things.

Okay. I'll see if we can maybe use that meta knowledge for our use. But guess not. I'm trying to think of who would be the least able to defend herself.

Oh, Tiana again. Would you know that on her own?

Once again. Raphael.

How are we introduced to these women? Do I. Did we just get a list of names?

Yeah.

Okay.

But Merlin will recognize who Tiana is. I don't think he would recognize any of the others. Maybe Princess Leia.

Depending on what happens If Kingdom Hearts 4, we'll just say she knows Princess Leia. He's now a Disney princess, so we have a bias.

Elizabeth Swan. He'd know.

Oh, that's true. So he knows at least three. Out of those three.

I think he would know. Tiana was more than likely out of those three. To be more at risk. Elizabeth can sword fight.

Leia.

No.

Can shoot a blaster if need be. At this. If we're assuming this is delay at this point in time in history.

So I say Tiana, let's do it.

All right.

Spaceman Spiff.

You show up in the bayou, you do a couple songs. It's a fun time. Eventually, you do see Princess Tiana under attack. I got to figure out who she's under attack from. Ah, she's under attack from Paxil.

Who is?

Paul Von Oberstein.

He just knew it was a Paul. Yeah, but he's showing up. He has his white cloak. He's clearly part of the organization 13. Along with him, you see a couple nobodies.

You know the way the white and gray with the symbol. But these nobodies look like a shamus. Flippers and dwarves. Yeah. So I. I assume you're going to fight and not let them just to take the princess.

I assume Doom overkills everything.

I was gonna say.

And if he doesn't? Raphael overkills everything.

I don't Think any of them would.

I don't think you would particularly have a problem as long as Calvin and Hobbs aren't, you know, immediately running up and putting themselves in danger. I think they're smart enough not to do that. Probably.

I think they're throwing snowballs and water balloons.

Sure, that's what I'd say. So, yeah, you and.

There's not water in those.

You guys win the fight, but in the midst of the fight, you lost. Tiana. She is gone. Yeah. You weren't paying attention. You were fighting. Okay, there was a fight happening, but. Yes, you looked away for a second.

You think something. Something slipped by Raphael.

What about Hobbes? Was Hobbs paying attention?

They. They missed it. Raphael might have sensed a force, and he can tell it was a force of darkness, that she didn't just disappear.

I think he probably would know that.

So would it be a role to know where that she was taken? If. How we can reach there?

He wouldn't know where, but he would guess. If it was darkness, it was probably being brought back to Xehanort in Crowley's world. I mean, I think he would know that just intuitively.

All right. I. We. We lost a fight. I don't know where to go.

You won the fight.

We won the fight. But she's gone. So.

Wait, that means Paul with an X in his name.

Yes.

Is here. So we can interrogate Paul.

If you didn't kill him to do them, or did you just. You're saying we. Just to learn information. I don't care.

Kill anyone if he.

What about.

Knew we could get more.

I assume you killed the. Nobody probably killed them. So you still got. Yeah. Okay, cool. What are we interrogating him about? Their plan is to capture the Princesses of Heart.

They got this one. Yeah. And then use it to open the kingdom hearts, where they're having souls so that Xehanort can get more powerful and obtain the Chi blade.

All right, he's gonna tell us how he was able to get here.

And where did they come from? Open portals of darkness. He just opened the portal, walked into the realm of darkness, and then immediately walked here.

This black hood now belongs to Doom.

He has the cloak.

Would it help if Hobbs pounces on Paul's chest and then Calvin grabs him by the shirt and says, tell us all you know. How do we get to the princess? Tell us now, or I'll throw this water balloon full of acid at your face.

I mean, he would just say the same thing, I think, because he's already given you all the Information. Good.

Okay. Gotcha.

All right. Yeah. Okay, so Doom has the cloak. Now what?

Raphael offers him one last chance at repentance.

Okay, just do him. Take the one. Doom or Paul?

No, no, no.

Not do Paul.

I don't think Paul has any idea what he means by repentance. Like, what are you talking about? Probably. Yeah. Also, there is no harder soul in him right now, so he probably doesn't care. Nope.

He had his chance.

It's true.

Time for that soul to be restored to his body.

So do we try another princess? Do we go out? In fact, we, you know, we lost one. Do we go find another one?

From what we knew, it was all happening at the same time. So if we lost ones, we actually lost seven.

It's a good thing we have at least two time travelers between us.

Oh, Merlin.

So with Merlin, we can use magic to go back to pay attention to how the princess left away and kind of go back about 30 minutes and see if we could see how the.

Prince is going away to see Western. If you want them to see it, you can see it. Person with the black hood showed up, grabbed her, opened a portal, they left. There's 13 total Xehanort.

There's the one you defeated, so there's at least 11 others.

Okay, so we will go back in time slightly and try a different world. We will go try and save Elizabeth Swan.

I like it.

Okay.

All right. Show up there, you have some pirate fun. You end up on the Pearl. You drink rum with Captain Jack. Except for Raphael. He's unsure if it's a sin or not.

So he's like, I can't do that for the story. And Calvin next, the child Calvin also doesn't drink.

Anyone.

Okay.

He gets applesees.

All right. This time, you're greeted by the hooded character xl, which is Leela from Futurama.

She is joined by some nobodies who appear to be like pure entities of lightning. Like force lightning. Maybe some loft cat nobodies and a few pirates. Okay.

All right. So Raphael. Oh, go ahead.

Calvin and Hobbes are gonna. Are gonna take care of Elizabeth.

I like that. I'm gonna. While everyone else fights, I'm gonna do a roll here.

Or just doom.

Do a roll here.

I think just doom can probably.

I rolled a two, which is very low on a 20 sided dice. So here's what I'm interpreting. The two as Kavanaugh successfully watch over Elizabeth Swan. They are with her.

When in the midst of a fight, another person in a black hood shows up to grab her. They of Course aren't gonna just let him grab her. So he tries to grab her. They fight.

Calvin Hobbes and Elizabeth Swan get lost in the realm of darkness. The princess is not brought back to the world of Supernatural. But now Sue, Calvin and Hobbs are in the realm of darkness. Doom and Raphael are.

And Merlin are still in the pirate world, having beat up the bad guys, obviously, but team has been separated. Yeah, right.

Well, we lost two, gain one. Elizabeth, welcome to the team.

Yeah, yeah. Not sure how she.

That's good.

She would react to being welcomed. She wouldn't curtsy. I know that she's probably very angry wherever she's. You.

No explain that's happening to people like her. If you know she doesn't want it to happen to others or to herself.

She should join us, just Calvin and Hobbes and protect the other. Able to have like a intelligent enough conversation to explain all this to her and catch her up, basically. I don't know Calvin and Hobbes that well.

Well, this is this after they've gone.

They're with her. They're with. They're the only ones.

We didn't say Elizabeth.

You said that they got taken up with her. Xehanort's real.

No. The realm of darkness. Yeah.

They captured whatever they were able to keep her from being pulled all the way into Supernatural's world, but they did get stuck with her in the realm of darkness in the process. Yeah, but you guys beat up the bad guys.

I think. I think Catron Hobbes, they're both explaining to her what happened, but all she sees is like a tiger stuffy.

And she's now wondering what's all in his head as imagination or what's real or not. So she's very, very confused why he keeps talking to this inanimate, conscious, stuffy tiger.

Luckily, since you do have Merlin, who I'm assuming knows enough about Kingdom Hearts, since he's in Kingdom Hearts, he can't explain to the rest of the team. If they are in the realm of darkness, which Raphael can sense that they are, they're immediately losing their heart, soul, everything.

We have maybe seconds, minutes before they're gone. So Merlin have strong enough hearts to resist? Probably for a while. That's what I was rolling for next.

The other one's probably Calvin. All right. Calvin, while he's in the realm of darkness, begins to See what looks like a giant key glowing. It's also pirate themed.

It has the wheel of like a pirate ship on the end for some reason. Directly in front of them in the complete darkness Realm of darkness. Neither Elizabeth Swan or Hobbes seems to see the key because reasons.

He's definitely getting ready. Yeah. Okay. So now Kyle then has a keyblade. He's still in the realm of darkness. But that's going to protect them a little bit longer.

Merlin probably doesn't know that he has a keyblade since he's not in the same location. Though.

I think Marlon takes Merlin takes a lead and goes. Goes after them and. And tries to. To save them. Raphael follows and agrees he's compliant.

Dr. Doom is still wanting to fight if there's anything left behind. And maybe his ego is kind of getting in the way. Whether he shouldn't take the lead from Merlin because he's smarter than him.

But are they goes anywhere?

Are they going to try to follow them with like the cloak and using darkness itself to open the door into the realm of darkness? Or are they just going to use the ship? What do you.

What do you mean?

Both. Explain how that. How that works.

What do you mean? Duke Doom knows all darkness. Who knows darkness better than Doom?

So he can open up with his ego a large enough portal for them to go through with the gummy ship into the realm of darkness.

That's what I was curious. I was curious if doom was going by himself and then the others were getting in the gummy ship and going. Or. Or how it was working. That's why.

Okay.

Oh no. There's other pawns to be used right now.

Fair enough. You can't waste that's gonna be successful. They end up in the realm of darkness. They see their friends.

You guys get to be united as soon as you are united. Let me make sure I got this here. No one else happens to have a dice on them. I should have invited you guys to have a dice.

I feel like I do right here. Perfect.

What do you need?

I need a perception roll with Doom's perception.

Do I have doom stats?

You could choose who you want. I feel like Doom, Raphael and the other one they all probably have. You're gonna have a base of 10. You just gotta roll 15 or higher. That's all I need.

I'll go with Merlin since he knows more about what's going on here.

Nope.

That should stay on the table. That's a 17.

Okay. He superseas. In fact, I think he sees two of the thing. Maybe three. Two or three. What am I thinking? Hmm. I'm thinking three, it turns out. All right.

He sees three summon gems. I'm gonna roll to see which three he. He finds. But Merlin is going to explain to you guys. I don't have the power to enable these summons to work.

But I do know someone who does. The Fairy Godmother. Because that's just. That's canon, unfortunately. That's why it was so funny. You guys picked Merlin.

I was waiting for this specific thing to happen. All right, let's see. 1. Well, would you know who the summons are ahead of time, or would you not know until you activate the summons?

Let's wait till you activate them.

Merlin would probably be the only one outside of Raphael.

You can wait till you activate them if you. I think that'd be good. I'm gonna keep that number, though, because that's. That's a great summons to have.

All right, so you're in the Room of Darkness. Everyone's immediately deteriorating. And while you're here, deteriorating, you know that you have these summons. You can activate Moxen.

Another man in a black hood appears. Who is Captain Nemo. Who was left too long in the realm of darkness. So he lost his soul and body.

And now he is a nobody and part of the organization 13. He is also here with a few heartless, which typically don't work with nobodies. But you're in the realm of darkness.

So there's giant heartless everywhere. The heartless that are in the realm. Here are two. One Monstro that looks like a big whale. Another monster that looks like a giant dogfish.

Several Godzillas, heartless. And a Kraken, Heartless all with Mox in here. They are beginning to surround you. But you do have the gummy ship and the cloak.

You probably can just get away if you want. But it's up to you.

I think we'll try to get away.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I don't.

I don't think it is a little much. But I think Doom's smart enough to know that not everyone else can.

Four heartless Godzillas. Plus knowing you're deteriorating by the second seems kind of not wise.

Well, Doom has the cloak. And I think Doom can probably kill 4 God, depending on which Godzilla.

So I don't know.

Why.

Up there. Yeah. Legendary heartless guts.

Now, if it was Godzilla Earth, we.

Might have one too then. Okay. But he already decided it's probably best to try to just get away.

I don't think there's a reasonable argument that you Wouldn't be able to just get away. You have several ways to just leave the realm. So we got. Well, where are you going? Is what I want to know. You're running away. But where to?

Mind you, Merlin just told you about Fairy Godmother being able to activate these summons.

We do need to find Fairy Godmother. We could also drop Elizabeth Swan off with Crowley.

No. She wants to keep fighting, but it's up to you guys. But she wants to keep fighting. She's a fighter.

Well, does he know where Fairy Godmother is?

Super easy, barely inconvenience. Could just go there.

Yeah.

She's in Twilight Town.

Okay. Yeah, we can totally do that. All right.

Sweet. You get away.

Have her identify these.

Get away. You get to the Fairy Godmother. You're in Twilight Town, in a safe place. There seems to be no. Nobody's heartless, nothing around.

It seems like the only safe haven you found this whole journey. The first summon that she awakens for you, that you guys can use because you have Merlin who knows magic, and Doom, who knows magic.

So you can do probably multiple summons at once. First one you got was Mothra. You can now summon Mothra. Next one we got my favorite Disney princess. Next one you have is a fox from Middle West.

Is now a summons you have. Your third summon is Scooby Doo. Yeah. So you guys can summon Scooby Doo, Mothra and fox from Middle west just for your. For my own amusement.

The other ones you could have got were Oi, Crypto and Lockheed, which all would have been great. Yeah. So now you have these summons that you're able to activate. They're not, you know, fully here. It's just their soul. Their spirit. Not soul.

Kingdom Hearts is weird. Guys, you have these summons. You know what's going on. You have Elizabeth Swan and your original team. You're in a safe place for the moment.

What do you want to do next?

The last one Merlin knew about was Leia. If we're still going based off of what he knows and the rest of us don't. That sounds like the Nesbics one.

Other than Doom probably recognizes Galadriel because, you know, he reads.

That's fair.

True. Yeah.

And Doom was a boy when Shrek was made, so maybe he knows who Fiona is.

Do y'? All. Anybody have a coin? Anybody have a coin we can flip? I have a bottle. Sweet.

I. I kind of want to go see. What? What? What the. What? The story. How the story goes with Leia. In this particular scenario, that would be my choice. But I'm good with either way.

Say I have a D4. I can make one and two and three and four separate things.

Do it.

Let's just flip a coin for the rest of them, saying you're gonna go after all of them.

So.

Leia. Heads. Yeah. You save her. Tails, you don't.

Tails.

All right. You don't. I am gonna mark off the bad guys for this. Can you. For Vivi. Same thing.

Tails.

This is awful. Fiona.

Tails.

How is this a weighted coin? All right.

Two face.

It's a 50.

50 every.

Galadriel.

Heads.

Princess Bubble.

Heads.

Nice. So I'll just have them join you as well.

It's 50 50.

And I'm gonna say seven of these guys. Y' all fight. Paul, at the first one, who did you fight? The. The second time? Do you remember?

That was.

I know you.

Goodness gracious.

You didn't defeat Nemo.

We just went through this.

Nemo. Oh, it was Leela.

Left him behind.

Okay.

Leela.

Yes.

Yeah.

At these other places, you defeated Boxins, which was Bones. I didn't know how to do it. The Dick Grayson. Sorry. You defeated Dick Grayson. Boxa, which was Ahab. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

One more that I want to knock out Bakes, which was Abe from Hellboy. So you defeated all of them while you were dealing with the princesses. The princes have been dealt with. Now you saved three, lost four.

Where are we at?

I guess the Candy Kingdom.

I absolutely agree. We're in the Candy Kingdom.

Princess Bubblegum is freaking out and talking about how souls aren't real and is beginning to do science experiments because she can. I don't know. Maybe she wants to make zombies. Yeah. Boom.

Is unimpressed. That one so smart would deny the existence of a soul.

Well, she's unimpressed with his little metal suit.

Well, she can be unimpressed in hell.

Anyway, so where are we going? Are we leaving the princesses where they are or taking them with us? I think the only other one that would have the.

Of the ones you have, I think the only one who would want to go. Bubblegum, I think, would want to go. Yeah, all three of them.

I think Bubblegum, Galadriel, and Elizabeth Swan would all want to be a part of the adventure. But you can leave them where they are if you want, because you will have to bring them back, assumedly, and that's that.

They stay with us by themselves.

Yeah. It's a good way to keep an eye on them. Anyway. So where are we going next?

To Crowley? I guess so.

Does Crowley know exactly where Xehanort is striking from.

He knows that he has taken over Hell, and Crowley's trying to get his kingdom back. So are you going to go to Hell and Crowley's world and look for Crowley there?

Are you going to look for Crowley back at the Technarchy where you started off?

But that's where we started off. Sorry, I missed that part.

Yeah.

Yeah, we did. I assume that Crowley would have been in the Technarchy since Hell has been ousted from him, and he rendezvoused with us there.

So you're going back to the Tetnarchy.

Let's do it.

All right. I'm gonna do another roll for this one. All right, cool.

As you arrive, Raphael immediately notices several demons coming up trying to capture the princesses from you. Crowley, of course, then comes out with Mexon, who is Nemo, who you've met before in the realm of darkness. And I try to remember her name.

Sorry, Hexons. Which was Zana, the former Sith apprentice. They are now confronting you. They have a league of demons who were trying to capture the princess.

Raphael noticed, so they weren't able to just capture the princesses. But you are surrounded by demons and then these three members of the organization and Crowley. Well, two members in Crowley. Sorry.

Is this with the demons? Is this where, like, Raphael knows demons? He's like, this is my realm now. We can. We can do this.

And rolls up his sleeves and takes a staff and shines a bright light of truth to reveal all things.

Are you asking me or telling me?

I'm telling you.

That's what we're doing. You know, I think that eliminates all the demons except for Crowley, who kind of does, like, a fake brush off his shoulders. Like, really?

You think that magic is going to work on the King of Hell? His mom did some witchy stuff, so no magic. Yeah, maybe I just don't want it to be that easy. Yeah, right.

Well, I think next. And you guys help me if this is. I think. Do we have cow. Do we have Calvin with us? Kevin and Hobbs.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yes.

Right. Now you have.

They put holy water. They put holy water in a water balloon and throw it at Crowley and see if that does any damage.

Yes. He's gonna sidestep the water balloon. Just not gonna get hit again. Water balloon. Yeah.

Okay.

Again.

Oh.

So I think eventually someone's gonna start trying to fight. Instead of throwing water bowl.

Well, I want her to say in Captain Britain and the MI13 or something like that. Doom reveals to Dracula that he implanted the nails of the true cross inside of his armor. So I think that's a huge boon here.

I think.

Yeah, I think Doom takes Crowley, but the other two are still trying to. Either are still trying to capture the princess. So people who aren't Crowley. Who is preoccupied with. Sorry.

Who aren't Doom, Was preoccupied with Crowley, then have to deal with Mexon and Haxons. Yeah, Haxons.

All right, so we've got assist sorcerers fighting off the greatest wizard who ever lived. Merlin.

Yeah, I think Merlin can take her. Got it. Yeah. Covered in hubs are probably falling back. Raphael can take Nemo.

Yeah, it's just a guy.

Really? He's just a guy? Well, I mean, he's nobody.

Yeah. So he's a little more enhanced now, but they're. Yeah, watching over, making sure no one's.

No funny business is happening to try and take the princesses away.

Pretty sure you got the fight. My question is, who gets killed? Does Doom kill Crowley, or is Doom smart enough that he's just gonna capture crowd?

Well, no, the smarter thing is to make him submit to his will.

Yeah, Doom's gonna try and make Crowley.

Work for him.

Do what he couldn't do to Mephisto.

I think Crowley will just explain basically, that he had made a deal with Xehanort that once Xehanort has his Chi blade in the Kingdom of Hearts, that there's no reason for him to be in Hell. So that Xehanort was going to allow Crowley to once more rule over Hell. So he's. That's why he's helping Xehanort. So he.

He would explain that once he's captured, I think because he's gonna try and squirm, get his way out and make a deal with Doom and you guys so that he can maybe come out of this alive, possibly try and, you know, pull something where he still ends up with having Hell back because that's all he really wants.

I would say Flip will let you regain your kingdom and no more funny business. Well, these chains get even tighter.

I think he'll accept that. But he's kind of side eyeing Raphael like, he's, like, not sure he could trust that guy, you know, can't trust the angel.

A demon does not trust an angel, especially not in supernatural world. And Raphael, in his world, Raphael was kind of, quote, the dick of angels.

Yeah, but we're in the technarchy.

Yeah, but Crowley is still friends world.

It's also not that Raphael.

Yeah, but he's still not sure he trusts him. You know, he's I feel like it's still a reasonable, like, suspicion given his history with angels. He's not like two that were okay.

I think. I think Raphael will tell him. You play your part, demon, I'll play mine.

I like that. I like that. I think Crowley's going along still. Yeah.

So now we have Elizabeth, Swan, Princess bubblegum, Galadriel, Crowley, Dr. Doom, Merlin, Calvin, and Hobbs. Raphael, where are we going? Are we gonna go confront Xehanort in hell?

I mean, what are their choices there?

If we kill the princesses plan just never work.

He'll just find another seven new hearts. It's an endless cycle, especially now that J.J. abrams.

It's gotten even worse.

Yes.

Let me do. I'm gonna do one more. One more perception. Well, intimidation roll, actually, because Doom was the one interrogating probably, right?

Yes.

A3. But Raphael. I'm gonna roll for Raphael too, because I want this to be a successful four. That just was not successful.

Did not tell you the thing I wanted to tell you guys, but it's fine. We'll skip over this slide. So you're in hell.

You're going to be confronted, of course, by Xehanort, who's thankful you brought the other three princesses he needs.

Well, first off, we should probably ask Merlin if he knows where the keyblade. The Chi blade. God help me. Where it actually is.

Oh, the keyblade. The Chi blade doesn't exist yet. It doesn't exist until the seven powers of light take on the 13 powers of darkness.

That's when in that confrontation, the Chi blade will reveal itself.

We should probably figure out who the seven powers of light are so we can get them the heck out so they don't get in thousands of.

Well, right now, you guys might be the seven. You guys have about seven people.

There's no way. There's no way in literal hell that Doom is a light.

Unfortunately, we are in hell, and I think Doom is the light.

Also, Riku was the light. I don't think it's that far a stretch for Kingdom Hearts world.

Riku is still a good person.

Doom thinks he's a good person. There's a difference.

He's a good ruler. Just the seven things of light. He's trying to use the Princesses of Heart to open it so that he can find them.

He doesn't know who the seven Alight are either. At this point, you got to get through three more games. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So then I actually hear we're too short. Even if we were Light, the heroes.

Of Light Now, I think you're over. Right, because you started with four, then you got three princesses, and Crowley, that's eight.

He's not alike.

Yeah, that's why I said you got one over. Except for Doom also probably would not count, so there's that. Yeah, so you're probably good either way.

Under strictest standards.

The only one. Also the only one of you with a keyblade is Calvin, so he's the only one who might be one of them. Okay. Yeah.

Yes.

Yeah. And don't forget, you do have the three summons. So are we just. Are we showing up in hell now? All right, yeah, I guess.

Where the story's going. What number? Next in line. Next in line?

Well, you can't ride Mothra, because summons don't last long enough for that, I feel like. But you show up in the gummy ship anyway, you're in Hell. You make it to Hell.

In the supernatural universe, you're confronted by Xehanort, also with Kuxud, who is Count Dooku.

As a one of the members of the organization 13, you already defeated Huxons, you have Yak Sof, so you have Khugsud, Count Dooku, Yaksaf, which is Fay from Cowboy Bebop, you have Oxoff Duisburg. Dr. Doofensburg says that nobody. Moxin, you already defeated, so you have Shaxil, which is Flash Thompson, and of course, Xehanort.

So Xehanorth, Flash Thompson as.

Who had Flash Thompson?

You had him.

I didn't have Flash Thompson. I had Rick Jones.

Oh, well, then that was Rick Jones. My bad. I got confused. Sometimes I don't pay enough attention.

All right, xehanort, Rick Jones, Dr. Doofensmertz, Faye, and Dooku are the organization members. Of course. They are also joined by nobodies made of force lightning. Some Shamu. Nobody. Some flipper nobodies.

Some dwarf nobodies, Loft cat nobodies, wizard nobodies, and pirates. Nobody's. They're all here. Big fight. Showdown. It's here.

The only ones that didn't make it are the heartless, who are just stuck in the realm of darkness because nobody wants them out. Actually, not even the nobodies. Yeah, so that's. That's who we're fighting. Do we want to go through anything? We want to just see you win.

They win.

It's up to you who wins.

Do we win that fight? I don't know. Organization 13. Dooku is absolutely insane. Actually, Dupont's first. Probably not that powerful. Who else do we have?

Lupitrous would defeat Himself.

Yeah. Rick Jones as an organization member or something.

Yeah.

Yeah. Dooku and Xehanort, I think, are the really the big strong ones.

And then you have a ton of nobodies, but I'm assuming you're gonna use all three of your summons, so you have literal Mothra with you. I'm pretty sure you come out on top of that.

I mean, I'm also pretty sure. Yeah, I. I think Doom can probably take Dooku.

Yeah.

Oh, and then some.

So we beat the old bald man. We did it. Bring the princesses home. We win the game. And the bonus points. Did you figure out Crowley's true motives before getting to his universe?

Yes. Because you went to the Technarchy first, so I'm gonna count that. So you get that point. You get two points for finding a Keyblade. You used a summons.

The only one you didn't do is find Chuck and Amara, who were in the Keyblade graveyard. And that's just because you had some bad rolls, man.

If you would have intimidated Crowley just a little bit more, you would have found literal God and the Darkness.

We didn't need their loser help anyways. They would have weakened.

Turns out you didn't need it. But it would have been an extra five points. But instead, you just. You have five of the bonus points on board. So let's.

Let me tally up and see what your thing is. So right now, the current high score set from Christian Ashley when we did the sidekick games is 37.

We're gonna see what score you guys give Mission status. You only missed one thing. That was a bonus thing. You got most of the princesses. You lost a few of the princesses.

You didn't save literally every princess. I'll give that a 9 out of 10 for the mission status. Just because you still. In the end of that. It's literature.

We saved three of the princesses.

Fine. Eight. Eight out of ten.

I mean, ultimately, we got everyone at the end. Yeah, I'm with TJ.

8. 8. Because you still did defeat Xehanort pretty handily. Yeah. All right. We give you eight. You got five bonus. Let me go ahead and write that down.

Teamwork. I think the team, mostly. You did have a few, you know, Doom thinking he's better than people and kind of starting to butt heads.

But I think everything just moved too fast for him to become a problem. But he still tried to become a problem. So I put that 6 or 7. 6. 7. Sustainability. This group isn't sticking together.

Dude wants nothing to do with the rest of them.

Absolutely not. No way. Yeah.

So I'm gonna give a pretty.

Raphael's got business.

We're gonn pretty low sustainability. I'm a three.

One.

Give us three. Give us.

I think the princesses might keep hanging out with Calvin and Hobbes. Yeah. Calvin Hobbs just hanging out with the princesses.

But he does not like girls. He doesn't like Susie. He thinks they're boogie beans. Booger beans. So give us a 2.

But they're older than Susie. Right?

Okay.

She's just as old as she is.

I'm giving it directly. I'm gonna give it a one.

Okay, good.

All right. Fun. I don't think this was a purchase. Oh, yeah. I skipped strength. Thank you. Strength is. Yeah. 10. You had 10. Doom and Merlin. Yeah. Fun, though.

10 in the Archangel Raphael.

Fun. It wasn't quite there.

Raphael didn't even flex.

The only fun ones were Calvin and Hop. And I think they had a lot of fun for everybody. But, like, as a whole collective, I don't think Doom was enjoying himself by any means. Or Merlin.

I disagree.

All right, let me hear it.

Merlin's always having a good time. And Doom probably would have enjoyed getting to exert his will over a bunch of new people he'd never seen before.

Yes. And make Crowley submit to him.

Yeah, he did enjoy that. But I don't know if that counts as fun. That's enjoying something. And fun. Is that something fun?

That's Doom's fun. Everyone telling Doom that he's right is, like, the ultimate form of fun.

I'm going six. One six.

Okay.

I don't see them just hanging out, having a good. Like, they weren't in Twilight time.

Like, hey, let's guys just hang out and have some fun before we do anything, you know, like, that wasn't happening.

I do, though.

I do think Doom and Merlin at least could hang out and have fun.

Those two probably maybe unsure they've met each other too.

Wasn't in the Iron Man 249, 250 when he went back in time. I'm pretty sure Merlin was in that one.

Well, yeah, with the bonus points, you guys tied Christian Ashley for the high score of 37. Amazingly so. The high score is the same. It is still 37.

But since this was the first actual episode of Geeks on a Roll, I think we'll just count this as the high score. If Christian's okay with beating his own high score with the same score, I'm fine.

I'm fine with sharing. I'm a man now.

I think if you gave us one extra point for fun, I think if you gave us one more extra point for fun and listened to us go from six to seven, then I. I think we're. We're at 38.

Keeping 37 even. That was my initial ratings. I'm staying there.

Is there anything else you want to take away from the story, the game, everything that happened today in our little experiment before we wrap up?

I think Kingdom Hearts is plenty complicated enough to be taking it and changing it into slightly different stuff.

Yeah, well, I think anytime.

I think at this point we all said something lore inaccurate.

Anytime you deal what? Kingdom Hearts breaks its own lore. Every game. Every single game. Yeah. Anytime.

I think you deal with like, body, soul, spirit, I think it gets hard to distinguish and maybe that's because it's all entangled.

Time to drink. Time to drink.

All right. Well, yeah, I did think it was fun that most of these aren't going to be like to have some big spiritual takeaway something. It's just to have fun.

So I thought it was a good time. We'll keep working on it and working out some of the details. Time wise. I think it was okay.

So I don't think it needs to be less complicated, personally, but I'm cool with it. All that said, though, it is time for our wrap up.

We were supposed to have an extra question at the end of the episode, but I think this one was long enough so we're going to leave it be. Other than. Actually, I do have one. I'm gonna ask you guys afterwards, which princess was most likely to get along with doom? Just because I'm curious.

So that'll be our bonus here at the end. First, that we are going to do some recommendations.

My recommendation is do more role playing, read more about doom, because how you guys talk about them makes me want to read more about Dr. Doom personally. Yeah. Christian, any recommendations?

Yeah, I've switched my newest thing to fall asleep too, and that's Phineas and Ferb. It makes me feel really good as I fall asleep.

That would also have been a great Best Friends, but they're brothers.

We did think about it.

Yeah, we did think about it.

Yeah.

Will, Will, if you had to pick.

A recommendation, go, go read, Read Calvin and Hobbes. Just sit down with the Calvin and Hobbes book and read through and get going. Laughing. The art is really fantastic too, so. I love the art.

But yeah, go read some Calvin Hobbes and giggle.

Love it. Love it. TJ recommendations.

Any. Any cyberpunk enjoyers out there? Cyberpunk as a genre or a style, not the actual franchise. Cyberpunk.

Go check out Killtopia and I forgot the name was on the bottom of the book. I was gonna show the top of the book.

Yeah, super Grace. Nice, nice, nice nice.
