The Report Card -- Fantasy High Sophomore Year Ep 1
Sophomores and Spring Break
Note: Hey guys! I decided to try something a little bit different and slightly more structured than my usual recaps for FH: Sophomore Year. I’m hoping this will be a little easier for me and a more useful tool for keeping up to date since there will be a lot more eps to keep track of and they’ll be easier to miss. Lemme know what you think and if you want raw, unfiltered opinions on anything specific, feel free to send me an ask. I’m always down to go off about literally whatever.

Last thought before I had off to bed: what was it like for Riz in the interim? Held hostage by the physical manifestation of his lies and need to pretend that he was dating someone, trapped in a mirror. Did he give in, and give “Baron” more to go off of? Did he stay quiet, holding onto whatever he could?
What was it like to see Fig, the first familiar face after hours spent with his dangerous lies, and for her to be ready to kill him?
Fantasy high lures you in with fun high school dnd adventures and then hits with you complicated and messy relationships
Emily was really vulnerable in the NADDPOD short rest this past week about how she always feels a little uncomfortable playing romance at the D&D table.
Well, Emily, if you ever read this - YOU ABSOLUTELY SMASHED IT. So proud of you and living for the A+ roleplay.
Thank you so much for such a wonderful & genuine performance as always, but particularly tonight 🧡 ❤️
YESSS!! A CROWN OF CANDY!
Candyland Westeros!
I am READY!! (I am not ready...)
I love her. I love her whole deal. I desperately wanna know more of her backstory.
I bow down before my rightful lawful Queen Emily Axford.
I really love how Sam is allowed to be angry in the game, like she’s a trans woman who use she was an actor/model/something in showbiz before she realized she was a girl, and then got kicked out by her mom when she found out. She lives with her best friend and has for probably a number of year, only for said best friend to betray her, and put her in a crystal so she would be a sacrifice to a dragon so Penelope could be freakin prom queen. And she still lives in the house with the family of her dead ex-bestfriend, only to find out that Penelope’s dad is cheating on her mom, who is her mom in all but blood, and is kicking the mom out of the house. Not to mention her shitty birth mother is trying to get back in the picture now that being trans/having a trans kid is seen as trendy and trying to pretend like nothing is wrong and their brand can still be salvaged.
Yet she is still incredibly sweet and kind, yeah she worries about her situation, but they’re natural worries and she doesn’t put her own situation above anyone elses who is in a bad way. She is terrified about being left alone in the house where Penelope’s (so far not literal) ghost still haunts, but she still goes out of her way to make sure Rebecca is alright. She compliments her, says her ass is better than the woman’s who her husband is cheating on her with, offers to help burn all of Mister Everpetal’s stuff and send it to him, she calls Rebecca her mom.
In turn when she goes on an angry tangent about wanting to beat her mother’s skull in, she says she might have anger problems, but Rebecca just waves it off. She tells her that she’d be more worried about Sam if she didn’t have anger issues. When she’s talking to Zelda about the situation in the house, she talks about how she wish she could rage like Zelda, Zelda says she’s seen her close, but in a solidarity way.
It’s just really refreshing to see as a trans woman, that there’s this powerful, beautiful, trans woman in this show, and she’s allowed to be pissed, she’s allowed be filled with a righteous fury because there’s a lot of shitty things going on in her life and her mom and friends never try to stifle it. they tell her that she deserves to be angry and no one gets to tell her not to and that they’ll be there for her when she is to make sure she also knows she’s loved.
Brennan, how does it feel running for a group with all women?
[ID: video from the dimension 20′s adventuring party for the first episode of the seven. (transcript edited for clarity)
brennan: i saw this as an improv teacher, specifically in like, in classes that that were less diverse and didn’t reflect real diversity, people would be nervous to share culture and share identity. and in this one it’s like, we all got fans, we fucking love lisa frank, what do you want? like, come at me.
rekha: to highlight that, even when erika just said that danielle is asian, i was like… (offscreen reaction)
sephie: i have big regrets not saying that sam was black in the episode.
rekha: oh my god, episode two baby!
brennan: this is canon now!
aabria: there’s plenty of time! episode two is gonna be all about protective hairstyles.
becca: i forgot to describe my physicality at all, except for “small.”
rekha: crispy-ass shirts, let’s go! but even just hearing that (gestures to erika), made me feel like, oh my god, i can reveal that katja, despite that not being any type of asian name, is asian.
erika: yeah!
sephie: i mean, russia’s kinda in asia.
rekha: and listen, anybody can be anything and you know what, whatever, like, it’s beautiful. it was just, i was just like wow, like, she’s half-orc, but she’s indian! is there india in this game? i don’t know, but there’s asia so…
aabira: it feels so good, right? brennan, you said “box braids” and i lost my fucking mind inside my head, i was like (pretends to cry).
sephie: the dreadlocked bun…
aabria: yeah! the mom with the bun!
sephie: i was like… mwah. (to brennan) good on you for knowing those protective hairstyles by the way.
aabria: yeah, thank you!
brennan: oh, shucks. well that’s the thing, it’s very-
erika: the flannel and then the boots for danielle’s mom-
rekha: and when you said “matcha” too, i was like (starts fanning herself)
(crosstalk)
brennan: but that’s the fun thing is like, following all of those leads down and fleshing those things out. it feels so fun and rewarding to be able to do that. but again, to answer the question, it is like celebrating the specific energy of like, these are high school girls, best friends, on the thread, in the car, going to school… this is the unique energy. the energy is feminine. we’re celebrating that. but also, what’s fun is, as a dm, i haven’t been serving neutral energy. i’ve often been serving masculine energy. and so it’s this weird thing of looking at it and being like, all those times you were doing very bro-y storytelling with your dude friends when you were a little teenager learning to play d&d, that wasn’t default either. that wasn’t neutral. there’s no such thing as neutral, right? and you’re always serving an energy. and the reason i say it’s simultaneously so fun and intoxicating—there is an intoxicating part of it, it feels so cool—but also feels seamless because if you are dungeon mastering correctly, what you are doing is following the energy of your players at the table and you feel invited into their world and their story and you’re like, great, all i’m doing is being the chorus line to the person in the spotlight hitting the solo, right? and it’s so wonderful. it’s a marvelous feeling.

Brennan correctly intuiting that the way to get Fig to go to class is to have the teachers be hot women is incredibly big brained of him

As a person who watched Dimension 20’s Fantasy high and TAZ graduation. Hearing Argo call fitz “boyo” brought back flashbacks that I never thought I’d have about a certain mind flyer.
brennan: murph roll this with disadvantage twice
murph, who physically cannot roll above a 7 even with advantage: … great
