Man, if this plot line stretched from Freshman to Junior year, what’s he gonna pull out for Senior Year?! Who’s left??!! Will Gilear finally be revealed as a bad guy? Jawbone? Will Brennan turn everyone on each other and finally get his PvP fight since being denied it in Bloodkeep?!
The 'for prestige, people care about you' bit always gets me, because yes it's objectively awful that the other kid snaps his own wand, but Evan did save his life.
Sometime in the near future, Jacob buzzes in: "Corneria, fourth planet of the Lylat system. The evil Andross turned this once thriving system into a wasteland of near extinction. General Pepper of the Cornerian army was successful in exiling this maniacal scientist to the barren, deserted planet Venom. Five years later, General Pepper noticed strange activity coming from Venom. James McCloud, Pigma Dengar, and Peppy Hare of the Star Fox team were sent to investigate. Upon their arrival, Pigma betrayed the team and James and Peppy were captured by Andross. Peppy barely escaped Venom and returned home to tell James’ son Fox about his father’s fate. A few years have passed. Andross has again invaded the Lylat system. General Pepper has turned to a new Star Fox team headed by Fox McCloud to save Corneria and to free the Lylat system once again." This happens no fewer than three times in one MSN minigame. 😆
2:56 I wish the part where Sophie was reading off the ingredients didn't get talked over because it would've been so goddamn funny to hear Annabelle Cheddar, an individual from Calorum, react to getting sprayed with something that has pure water in it, since it's established that water damages everyone from Calorum (though it hurts candy folk the most)
I'm so sad because I think it could have worked. Annabelle Cheddar was born into privilege, but she legitimately surrendered all of it in the name of freedom so she could be the captain of her own destiny. That's the exact kind of pioneering attitude Margaret respects! She just didn't let her finish explaining how she gave up her nepo origins to live by just a sword and her wits for 15 years.
what the other comment said, but also if we are to take it seriously i think it's still accurate that annabelle cheddar is a nepo baby as the ability to surrender the crown was a privileged one & she still maintains status after the fact. and as i remember it, she was stripped of the crown because she refused to marry and produce an heir, which while badass isn't the same as someone disavowing their privilege in a feudal hierarchy, which is what margaret would respect more i reckon
an incredible bit! what really takes it over the top for me: sofie bikes!! being convinced the whole time that this is an immersive play, going HAM on hand sanitizer, and calling gorgug the incorrect names like telemaine and claiming he's 25.
I love Siobhan’s ability to roast because it nicely balances with everyone looking at looking at them silently and confused when something distinctively British comes out of their mouth
Thank you for mentioning that RU-vid Memberships doesn't give ad block. I couldn't find an answer online & assumed that would be the sensible thing to happen
"all pulp, no juice" is actually insane especially when you consider that gilear is a relatively-recently divorced, middle-aged, balding, unlucky, likely physically very unfit high elf
I think if they do another season of Starstruck, Barry should be the only character from this that retains any knowledge of what he went through. A burden only for him to bear.
This universe and cast is so good and I'm thrilled they're doing a second season 😍 Today, 10:06 hits hard. "I can retain this anger; I'll just put it away for now; but eventually they're gonna catch these hands" (probably lightly paraphrasing there) is deeply relatable on so many levels. Just making an appointment...
Somehow, there is nothing more rude and hurtful than both Murph and Emily going "Who?" and Ally asking completely uninterested "That's her name?" when Brennan referred to Orange Top Hat by her actual name. Especially so after Brennan had just made a big show about her name finally being revealed and also emphasized he was talking about Orange Top Hat. The cast was so obsessed with her in the Neverafter season and now they couldn't care less.
The biggest misstep was Brennan not bringing the mini for then to ogle and leer at again XD. Definitely would’ve had them hook line and sinker if they brought the heavy artillery lol
I love how the in Neverafter, Brennan got totally blindsided bu the players obsessing over Orange Top Hat, and now in Time Quangle, he got totally blindsided by the players not giving a fuck about Orange Top Hat.
