Sir Fitzroy Maplecout & Argonaut Keene:

they’ve survived traveling through Literal Hell together, they’ve spoken to god(s), they are magical besties with entwined futures, they are college roommates, their combined ego alone is enough to beat the competition

Optimus Prime & Ratchet:

They are millions of years old and have been close friends for several of those million. They have been through eons of war and losing their homeworld together. They have been refugees on a planet entirely opposite their own and have differences of opinion, but remain friends who know each other better than anyone. They have supported and healed each other through all their hardships and injuries. They have saved each others’ lives countless times. Their term of endearment is literally “Old Friend” and it is spoken often. They have saved two planets (said homeworld and Earth) with the help of their team. Their team is basically a family they co-parent, because they are both responsible and caring adults. Optimus is the leader and Ratchet is the healer, and together they have endured more trauma and loss imaginable, but still they stay strong for one another and to protect and save lives to the best of their abilities.

Thoughts after finishing taz graduation: I really liked it!

Going into it one of my friends who had listened to some of it had said he didn't really like it. He had said Travis had a good idea but it didn't really come to fruition, and I kinda see that but I think it was really strong in a lot of ways.

One of the biggest strengths imo is the characters. Amnesty had some amazing characters, Aubrey little was played so well and was such a rich character, duck newton was just fantastic in how he was written, and pets not get started on the man the myth the legend ned chicane. I feel like the graduation characters are really good in a different direction though.

Amnesty was such a realistic setting and so it's characters had to be realistic I'm change, but in graduation it's a fantasy highschool so they can do whatever the hell they want. The firbolg is so amazing, and you can tell Justin put a lot of work into doing his research and managing that difficult character while still being hilarious. Clints character was somewhat simple but was all the stronger for that. He had his revenge motivation and he ended up getting there (which I really respect of Travis), but his character changed throughout the course of the story to work better with people and became what felt like such good friends with the crew.

And then we can't forget Fitzroy. Fitzroy is I think one of my favorite characters in anything they have done so far. Griffin handled him amazingly and I have no notes, he is so enjoyable to listen to and hearing how his character changed was just beautiful. Also some actually fucking good ace rep is nice.

One sort of weak thing about it is the message. It has a strong idea and I like the message, but I feel like it wasn't pulled off as well as it could be. Throughout the story aside from a few moments we are mostly just told about hog and it isn't till the end that we understand more about it and why we shouldn't like it. For most of the story we know that hog is basically theater and also OSHA, checking to make sure that things are running well and no one is getting exploited while putting on shows for the people. If Travis had given us some more solid hey look how these people got fucked up because this system brands whoever it wants as good or bad and basically is capitalism, I would have been so much more on board.

Ending thoughts and tldr: I really loved the characters, they were all played so well. The message was good but could have used more work during the earlier parts.

Next I'm onto the Magnus protocol real quick for a pitstop because a friend threatened me, then I'm onto ethersea which I can't be more excited for. I'll keep anyone who follows updated :D

Sometimes I think I’m over my obsession with TAZ graduation but then I remember the whole plot line of there only being room for Chaos or Order within the world because they share a physical form and I loose it all over again

#order pushing people to chaos and chaos pushing people to order so they’re never together at the same time #I literally have a tattoo about this #taz graduation spoilers #taz graduation #the adventure zone #the adventure zone graduation #taz #the mcelroys

[duck-newton]

god FUCK I will never shut up about the thundermen’s dynamic

in the same episode we get Argo threatening to expose the Unbroken Chain if they even so much as think about laying a finger on Fitzroy, meanwhile Fitzroy and the Firbolg are deciding that they can’t trust Argo as far as they can throw him and electing to not clue him in to the mysterious and dangerous happenings they’ve encountered

the dramatic irony is just. chefs kiss

[justlisteningtotaz]

Omg I’m at the ep where they’re confronting Higglemas &… all his mind codes so far are food things. And he was TALKING to Fitz about his tea ingredients a few eps ago….. it’ll probably be nothing, but if that was setting up something with him controlling fitz too???????? AA! That would be very cool & also I would feel very smart

"Man I wish the McElroy's had continued Commitment or Dust, I would've loved listening to those! I would've listened to them over and over again!" << says guy who has only ever done relistens of Balance, never finished Amnesty, and never even started listening any of the other campaigns.

#taz #the adventure zone #taz balance #taz amnesty #taz commitment #taz dust #taz graduation #taz ethersea #taz steeplechase #i do plan to start listening to steeplechase after my current relisten of balance is over #i would restart amnesty but i tried to recently then say a spoiler for the finale when i was 2/3 through the campaign and i just couldn't #so i won't be listening to amnesty for probably at least 4 years or more #however long it takes me to forget most of the details of the campign + the spoiler i saw #but once i finish steeplechase #WHICH I WILL BC I'M RLY LOOKING FORWARD TO JUSTIN'S GMING I SWEAR I'LL FINISH THIS CAMPIGN I PROMMY #i'll probably move onto tiny heist on dimension 20 #and then either taz grad or ethersea #though i'm sure i'll sqeeze in a relisten to both commitment and dust before that #after grad/ethersea (whichever i choose idk yet) #will be time for a short taz break followed by my 4th or 5th relisten to balance #fuckin love that campaign #saving up for a tattoo of it #haven't decided if i'll do the bureau of balance symbol or fisher yet

something that makes dead end really, really special imo is how amazing it is to see so many different times the characters casually say they’re queer

#personal crap #dead end paranormal park #dead end spoilers #i love how the last one managed to make a joke out of sharing pronouns that sounds like the kinds of jokes enbies make too! #it's so easy to make it sound forced like in taz graduation or kinda transphobic #but this nailed it #lgbtq #transgender #bisexual #gay #nonbinary

Okay but my favorite part of the scene where Argo Fitz and the Firbolg turn into Clint Griffin and Justin, is when all of the dragons, the 800 remaining hellhounds, Gray, Althea, Hironymous etc turn into variously sized Travises. I hope that gets into the film adaptation

#I'm live tweeting so live #i wouldn't be surprised if they actually make a joke about this #also please don't judge me for live tweeting two parts of the episode that are 10 minutes apart over the span of like 12 hrs 😌 #my attention span #it is sleepin g #😌😌😌 #taz #taz graduation spoilers #taz graduation #live tweeting taz!
