#please listen to my show

[sassytail]

It occurs to me that I’ve never really explained. What our podcast is, on here.

So here goes nothing!

Follow the Leader (#ftlcast) is an anthology style actual-play podcast where we tell short character- driven stories through the use of a wide variety of gmless tabletop roleplaying games.

Typically, we record a single-session game (sometimes we do two sessions if it seems the story we’re telling is going to take longer than just the one recording session) and then we split that one recording session into as many ~1 hr long episodes as we can!

Each of our all-queer cast members has a pool of ocs, and we try to bring them back often in various games as aus.

New episodes come out every Monday during our true seasons and every other Monday during FTL Presents interstitial seasons. (we're in one of these at the time of posting on 3/7/23) Each short story comes out as a numbered arc, and you can start our podcast at any story you like by listening to any #.1 episode!

I personally recommend arc 42 (episodes 1, 2, and 3) where we play Lady Winter in the Protocol series by Post World Games and Jim Pinto, in which i play Mihva Namethari, a dryad mage-princess being woo'd very sweetly, if a bit awkwardly by a himbo Bugbear. (pictured below)

and arc 56 ( 1 ), where we play I Came Here to Win by Peach Garden Games. My primary character in this episode is Garion, a vampire tailor for the supernatural, desperately pretending for television that he is a Normal Adult Human Thank You. My secondary character is Daydream, a bitchy track star who is also just me blatently doing my best taako impression. Both of these fine boys are competing in a television show to become the lucky one to get a scholarship to a prestigious wizarding university.

Or you could jump right in with our current season, Ftl Presents: Pathfinder

A more traditional style of ttrpg actualplay, where we do a short campaign made up of the pathfinder official adventure modules! Its already shaping up to be quite the journey, and it's only getting more so by the week!

so yeah! give us a listen! and if you talk abt the show, we'd really appreciate it if you'd tag it #ftlcast so we can see what folks think!

IAN GALLAGHER + his journey with bipolar disorder

╰┈➤ “At times, being bipolar can be an all-consuming challenge, requiring a lot of stamina and even more courage, so if you’re living with this illness and functioning at all, it’s something to be proud of, not ashamed of." - Carrie Fisher

Everywhere Mobius goes, if there is a radio, a speaker— any music device, an old-timey love song will play.

Sometimes these songs cut off the current song or the radio host, leaving the host and listener confused.

Sometimes the radio is off and will randomly turn on and freak people out. But not Mobius.

Mobius loves all the songs that usually play. But there’s one song in particular that Loki plays that makes him smile the most.

“We’ll meet again, don’t know where, don’t know when, but I know we’ll meet again some sunny day…”

My dear papa taught me how to howl, how to bear my teeth and growl. Anyways, haven't caught up with s2 just yet but still thinking about Mark being forced to hit harder for just pure survival. Born to be kind, forced to bear your teeth.

Now that the dust has settled... I want to thank you all for listening to Personal Screening. From the bottom of my heart... thank you. It still feels like a dream. But for real, what I really want to say is-

THE CONTENTS OF THIS POST HAVE BEEN DELETED BY THE USER

Oh yes my favorite duo, 'AAWEHEHEGWGWV 🥺🥺' and 'I'm barely tolerating your ass'

sleep deprived dust can't recognize what's dream and what's real when he goes in and out of consciousness so i think dust is allowed to be incredibly reckless when he's awake but thinks he's in a dream. he will kill whoever passes by him (or attempt to. for him it's an instict to shoot bones anyways.) he will drink 4 bottles of alcohol just because he thinks its just a lucid dream. have incredibly loud conversations with phantom paps because he's asleep so nobody will hear him talk. or just have loud ass breakdowns because again he thinks he's asleep!!! nobody's gonna know what he gets up to in his dreams. and until someone (probably phantom paps) tells him that he's not asleep and this is reality he won't realize until he's done something really reckless

horror is seconds away from exploding dust's skull open with his magic while dust is trying to strangle him and FINALLY phantom paps tells him he's awake and dust snaps out of it. killer is walking around the house with bones sticking out of him like pins on a sewing pattern (casually too. another day in the life for him) and he just asks dust what that was about. dust just gets off of horror and shrugs his shoulders with an idk. and then walks away. this is the 6th time its happened this month

Being an autistic person who loves Abed and relates to him but also thinks there's a lot about the show's treatment of him that really hasn't aged well feels lonely because I feel like I'd get hated on for it.
