“I figured everyone would be giving out their numbers on the first day, I have… business cards, so I’ll probably be busy Saturday” this character was my introduction to DnD and he’s gonna forever be my favorite.
@@mushroompoet true but also i think Biz was purposefully designed as an NPC that was both awful and shared a lot of traits with Riz so that Riz would still keep all the quirky bits about him but realize how not to be in a moral sense - Biz is like a cautionary tale of what path not to go down. Biz is like an incel version of Riz, and Riz immediately sees him and is like “ok i don’t want any part in that vibe” and makes sure to clearly align himself with values contradictory to Biz. so it’s like the autistic swag stays but Riz now makes sure to consciously project kindness and non-shittiness along with it. so it’s not that Riz was ever doing anything bad, it’s just that he becomes more aware of how people can see some of his behaviors and subconsciously align him with Biz-types, and since he doesn’t want to be aligned with Biz he adjusts accordingly. i think it’s a journey we all go on as young teens, making sure that we project what we intend to project about ourselves and attempt our vibes to align with our sense of self. does any of this make sense??? idk man i’m rambling
@@sarahbearbabygirl this is a very good analysis and I agree with it 100%. also my reply was meant to be in a joking tone, not to imply you actually thought they were the same :)
My favorite part of the Riz/Biz arc is that his original plan to make a friend, get close, get them to relax, and then reveal clues absolutely plays out.
@@sarahbearbabygirl As audiences, its a good reminder to be Riz and Biz if we see ourselves in them. Also, a good reminder not to lie about our Romaence Partners.
The fact that for 2 seasons Fabian almost exclusively called him The Ball which was a one-off name given to him by a bully in the first episode is so funny to me
His mom's frustration that he was *at* the murder scene is perfection: "Look, I know my kid is weird and obsessed with solving a real-life grisly mystery, but I was *really* hoping he'd managed to avoid this!"
I was struggling to pick a favourite moment from Fantasy High until Murph decided it for me in the final episode with 'I don't know how long it's gonna take, but I'm gonna eat YOU, BITCH!'
you just gotta lean in to the fact that its kinda weird and funny. i made business cards for summer camp one year that had a skull with sunglasses and homestuck character so small they were unrecognizable as anything but a smudge. everyone thought they were great.
I LOVE THE BALL SO MUCH ITS ACTUALLY CRAZY … I CANT FIND CLIPS OF HIM ON PINTREST AND HE SEEMS UNDERRATED TO THE OTHERS I LOVE HIM SO SO MUCH QGHJ HES SO RELATABLE AND IHAHJ
