Oh man, if Taako had actually shoved that shovel in, it probably would have set off the cluster bomb. This goof actually saved them some time.

[@Rilagooma]

you can just tell Griffin was aching for them to blow themselves up

[@youdoyouidome7452]

"How hard would you say you bury that shovel?" Is SUCH a loaded question. Hilariously. Like, same level as "I touch the object" "Cool. remind me, who is your god?"

[@shawnaeatscats]

Part of that was definitely griffin egging Justin, and justin being the older brother and subconciously knowing it was a trap. But part of it was "ahh, ooh, ah, manual labor, owwww, my beautiful hands!

[@ladybuggger]

And taako's nonexistent work ethic saves them this one time

[@theartistswings9810]

ladybuggger yeah cause dang if taako had gone to town and buried that shovel they all be blown back to Tuesday morning.

[@Strawtebby]

TheArtistsWings T technically just THAT morning

Love that Merle casts healing on Taako while Magnus digs with his bare hands all because Taako doesn't want to. They're all so sweet and familial with each other and it's fun to remember that

[@raisedbybears1991]

Eleventh Hour is such a solid arc. Even the meandering bits are funny and interesting.

[@ButterflyScarlet]

Taako u lazy twink, ily I loved this so much, my favourite part is Taako's 'magic eyes' because omfg that was hilarious i nearly choked!

[@liluthealmighty]

I've never heard Taako be called something so accurate as "lazy twink" but now I'm never calling him anything else.

[@seannawatters]

Am I the only other one who didn't forget the magic eyes scene ? _taako stares into the depth of the bush, into the ground and space, with his _*_m a g i c e y e s._* shook u p

[@sanjanashanker7960]

The slight but audible distance from the mic is the clincher on that one i lose it every single time

[@joeyfromschool]

Sanjana Shanker shows that Clint was actually leaning backwards, I’m assuming reaching upwards dramatically as if in pain

[@spilledink849]

Why am i actually just taako in every dnd campaign

[@lilyfae7197]

Because that kind of character is fun af.

[@ellaforrest5096]

[@lemmetalkaboutthis]

I love it when people make the characters role the dice bc the implications of that happening in their world is hilarious! Grade A+++ video!

[@bbqbiscuit]

I just relistened to this episode and when Justin says “I’ve got magic eyes” this was IMMEDIATELY what I thought of and I swear searched so hard for it.

[@Strix182]

Your artstyle is ADORABLE. And the magic eyes bit was hilarious, of course. SUBBED.

[@alliebeemac]

This was hilarious and awesome!! Can’t wait to see more of your work!

[@kylekyle4169]

this is, genuinely, my absolute favorite TAZ animatic ever. the way you captured all of them with a balance of cartoony stylizing and staying true to their designs, and Taako looks so fkin good gdgdhd this is just so so nice. this animatic is like therapy for me

[@Elanel]

Lol at Merle's bandaids.

[@theartistswings9810]

At the end of re listening to this episode in particular I had the immediate urge to scream "ITS A MOTHER *BWACK*ING TARRASQUE" Thank Dingo Doodles.

[@KimonoSuki]

Taako is such a drama queen i love him. ALSO I LOVE THESE DESIGNSS and the visual goofs were amazing

[@astrophysiciann]

God this is so precious, wonderful job!! Your style is so smooth and your expressions are on point! I totally forgot about this scene :D

[@ainsley4853]

This is so brave of you to make. You had to draw so many hands.

[@x-ca1iber]

oh my goodness i’m in love with your taako design

[@claudiag.9307]

Why are everyone's designs so good?? It's so hard to pick a favourite :33 (The sweetest pain of all)

[@gormauslander]

I find it so incredible how the universe bends the laws of probability to ensure that Merle Highchurch will always and forever be the low roll gremlin.

[@owlpip8992]

The magic eyes part was amazing

[@ThePinkPartyHat]

Hi but the boys are so cute??? Taako's magic eyes made me guffaw my ass off this is going in my secret favorites playlist immediately

I love this bit. Just a bunch of friends goofing around white a giant work tries to eat the town

[@KaylaKasel]

I know you meant "worm", but seeing "work" destroy the town is funny to me because Taako specifically doesn't want to work at all. More like giant "lazy" destroys the town. Haha. (This is a stupid joke, but I made it anyway.)
