So I binge watched ben 10 in a nostolgic rampage. I have to admit, I liked it. Most of it. Alien force is as amazing as I remember it it being. Besides from a few bad eggs it was great. The first series was a lot less enjoyable than it was when I was ten but hey, it does what it needs to.

What I want to talk about is ultimate alien. It has so much going for it and so many plots I would have loved to see played out right but don't. The first season was great. Aggregor is easily the most dangerous and nefarious bad guy yet and genuinely got under my skin before he slowly became an annoyingly cliche and repetitive character. The short side plot of dealing with Kevin's power-induced madness was equally as fun to me. The rest of the series was just bland. Old George and an eldritch horror couldn't help it at all!

I know I'm gonna get burnt at the stake for saying this but I absolutely positively cannot care less for Amphibia or Owl House.

@Dark Cloud

Completely Valid, dude. They're both not for everyone. My interest with Owl house wained thin as the show went on. To me it has a lot of great artist and voice talent and a cool style but beyond that I'm really just watching it to see hooty. Even then, hooty is pretty annoying half the time.

Amphibia is honestly one of my new favorites at this point. Love the characters, love the story, and I can completely agree that the pacing is bizarre to say the least but the plot points seem to crop up at good times to me. Especially in season three where there is a bit more of a coherent plot.

@SleepingSilence

I find your take surprising, not wrong or offensive, just surprising! I felt like the second season was my favorite. In my eyes MT is defined by wanting to escape what she isn't/doesn't want to be, rather than those things she was forced to be (as Tulip's reflection). It's a character I think a lot of young people can empathize with in that regard. People are after her for being unique/going against the grain and she feels the need to hide her true self while also craving nothing more than to be free. I love seeing how different people see shows and characters differently. Thought I'd throw my own to cents in the mix.

Anyway, I need a new show to watch. I started spectacular spiderman but if anyone has suggestions let me know!

D&D 5e Rime of the Frostmaiden.

I'm in a conversation with Kythor so mostly waiting on him. I am in no rush at all.

Dullin

Dullin couldn't help but be ashamed of her own brashness. Having someone point out the flaws in her logic was enough to kill her urgency. Still, an unwavering look of dread remained on her face.
"They're going to kill that woman without a proper sacrifice!" She explained abruptly.

@Moon Man With the check you rolled, Arma likely doesn't realize the difference between the spell book and the other books.

Fall of Faerieland

Just letting you know, there was nothing for your group on the bookshelf anyway. Just something a wizard might use.

@The Large Dumbo hey man, I'm in no rush. I like your replies and can wait. I just feel bad about leaving you in the dust at times

D&D 5e Rime of the Frostmaiden.

Gonna wait a bit and try to let Kythor get a post in.

Fall of Faerieland

@Moon Man Absolutely!

Fall of Faerieland

@XxFellsingxX Doesn't find you much more than a few subtle clues.

Fall of Faerieland

Wafting through there air where a few strange smells, none smelling exactly like the the mix of smoke and magic emanating from the trapdoor.

The cups on the table, still steaming smelled delightful and strange. One was hot chocolate, another a cup of espresso coffee. The last was some sort of jasmine tea, though it had a unique smell to it.

More odd was the smell that Wyler couldn't place the origin from. As if wafting up from the very floorboards themselves was a musky, stagnant smell: like a stuffy attic. All of these smells culminated in the center of the room.
