Yeehaw Energy: Drawfee Animatic

This animatic is based on an a Drawfee VOD uploaded on the Unofficial Drawfee Stream Archive on KZbin, where Jacob, Nathan, and Karina invited Brennan Lee Mulligan to give them D&D characters from Twitch chat to draw. One of Jacob's drawings was especially troubling to Brennan.
• Drawing Fan D&D Charac...
Recently I've been embracing yeehaw energy in my life. I thought I would make an animatic of the moment that added the phrase to my personal vocabulary.

[@justagiraffe9434]

what i'm seeing is when brennan lee mulligan and drawfee combine, brennan is likely to have an aneurysm because his need for explanations and implications collides violently with the drawfee crew's "i'm not explaining myself or my actions. iykyk." energy

[@Notproper22]

I feel like "Yeehaw energy" explains things pretty well.

[@frnknfrk]

Brennan thinks Emily will be the death of him, but it really is going to be Karina.

[@U.Inferno]

Julia and Caldwell as DM for them "I gotchu" Brennan "DMing" them "Please let me go."

[@frnknfrk]

I love that in this world Brennan apparently brings a DM screen wherever he goes just because.

[@AllucardBR-JPFS]

we are all nps in Brennan dungeon world

[@Notproper22]

I figured I would recontextualize the clip as a D&D game they're having, which doesn't mean he doesn't carry a screen around I suppose.

I know 'snilk' is well known even outside the Drawfee fandom by now, but the rest of this episode was also so funny... Brennan's slowly increasing distress as he tried to make sense of each new element was hilarious. Thanks for bringing the audio to life!

[@FlyingInfant]

I watch the clip of this and it never fails to make me smile

[@laurenvelentzas5044]

I’ve heard audio from this episode a lot but they never quite got To the “I know I’m running off a pot of coffee and a handful of almonds…” portion which is, in my opinion, vital information in this story.

[@Notproper22]

That and the "THAT IS NOT YEEHAW ENERGY!" which is also essential.

[@Lucifersfursona]

Brennan’s three food groups: coffee, almonds, indignation

[@clarawoodman9331]

If Emily axford was sent from hell to kill brenan, then drawfee is hell incarnate, not a single logical thing to grab here

[@Van-dq4sw]

Okay, the angled shot of the cowboy drawing two battle axes and the shot lining up the haft of one like the barrel of a gun is PEAK EXCELLENCE.

[@mortua_conjuga]

this snake woman haunts brennan's dreams

snoman

[@loadeddice4696]

his sneams

[@simonw560]

mine too.... but for different reasons

[@ijlayugan4149]

Brennan still hasn't got them back as he promised- and I still think about it to this day.

[@leopoldbloom4296]

I'd love a new collab, though; what a clash of worlds

[@MrxstGrssmnstMttckstPhlNelThot]

@@leopoldbloom4296 you may be in luck. Nathan is supposed to be on an upcoming Game Changers episode, and Caldwell too. No Brennan listed but a) he could show up, and b) this could be a sign of more Drawfee-Dropout collabs in the future to come.

[@leopoldbloom4296]

@@MrxstGrssmnstMttckstPhlNelThot Is this safe? Have physicists checked the world will in fact _not_ implode if this happens??

[@U.Inferno]

​@@MrxstGrssmnstMttckstPhlNelThotyou say upcoming as if you didn't post this comment the very day it came out

[@rudithedudi1757]

the reveal of the giant fucking axes coming out of the cowboys pockets at 0:54 made me laugh so hard, beautifully adapted animatic

[@Fortunateson69]

I adore this animation. I don’t know brennans dm style, but I know him from other stuff…so I like to imagine he either gets this indignant all the time with his other d&d groups or drawfee and the snee-haw yuanti woman truly broke him.

[@pennybutnotthecoin]

Holy underrated Drawfee animatic, Batman!

[@gorimbaud]

you know brennan doesn't have or know about yeehaw energy when he starts trying to understand it through the genre conventions of westerns

[@poptartzgaming5545]

You captured Brennan's descent into madness so well I'm cackling

[@EchoL0C0]

I loved their hats.

[@legomojo]

A classic. It fills my heart with earth to see this again. And it’s not even the SNILK part. 😂

[@Bakemonwithahat]

obsessed with the cowboy pulling out 2 axes as if they were guns

[@hp8685]

i love the expressions you convey. each of the drawfee crew seem so true to their vibes, and brennan's expression at 0:40 is a huge mood

[@lrgogo1517]

I like the casual instant cowboy hats

[@Notproper22]

That's the Yeehaw energy.

[@WhisperNanny]

The poses in perspective is god-tier holy cow

[@U.Inferno]

Brennan's not the DM in this situation. He's the player and the remaining three are sending him through their campaign. That said I do viscerally need him to DM a game for Drawfee proper on D20

[@adamjaschen4915]

The mention of a handful of almonds at the end is such good foreshadowing for the eventual almond rant.

[@G30R6E93]

What I've always liked to be on Drawfee a good retort to every dumb thing, just like a boke&tsukkomi routine. I have hope all the Dropout collabs at least once on Drawfee, truly the dream

[@KaizerHiwatari]

The almonds return

[@thewingedporpoise]

yeah buta have you considered: snilk?

[@Notproper22]

Yeah that's a good point. Snilk?

[@G30R6E93]

snilk? YIP PEE!

Faaaave
