Damn. I love when Travis gets serious when rping Good visuals

[@hayleycooper6607]

Beastial Moon yeah. I wish Magnus was a real dude bc I would just love to go adventuring but also like... He needs a hug because of all the shit he's gone through but also I want a Magnus bear hug. Travis portrays this character so well, all three of them do. They have so much depth and it's so touching.

[@valhund2629]

The adventure zone is a comedy podcast, they said. It’ll be fun, they said

[@WowItsErin]

"he starts to cry" "good."

[@frydfish4934]

Lucas: roll to hold back tears

[@acestarssparkling4246]

Cryo Phobica And that's a one

[@sicksalt7765]

Crit fail

[@IsisNiko]

when I first listened to this scene on the podcast, lucas' distress didn't really phase me, because at this point he'd put so many people in needless danger and I wanted to see him get his ass handed to him. but seeing your interpretation of the scene actually made me feel for the guy a little bit. excellent job, honestly

[@Jus_Joj]

for me, this whole time, I actually really did feel for lucas. Even after what he did with their suits, the paralysis thing, I still felt that he had been justified in what he had done. I had assumed from the moment griffin mentioned there being a person in the crystals that it was lucas's mother, and with lucas trying to break her out, I really did feel the sort of impact of it all.

[@blueblueberry4973]

I totally get your perspective on Lucas, but he was the first character I really felt for in taz. To me at least it seemed like this arc was at least a little influenced by how the boys felt about losing their mom, and even if it's not how they played it, that's the lens I looked at it through. Desperate to get her back, letting darkness alter the memory of a mother figure, shutting out the emotion and having a "she's gone, deal with it attitude". I don't know if that's what the boys meant with this arc and I don't mean to pry into their personal lives or assume anything, but it just made everything a bit more real to me, especially since I listened to this arc shortly after losing my grandmother. But yeah Lucas can be a butt

[@lr-]

Jesus. Realizing how real this is for them makes it way worse.

[@LilyTheSmol]

I was in total shock in this scene, because the usually happy, stupid, forgiving Magnus just gets PISSED, and with good reason too, I mean he was just betrayed by someone he personally defended! It's still completely unexpected, and almost scary to hear! You interpreted all of this very well! Good job! -RU =)

[@OliviaOnline]

Crystal Kingdom is the best Magnus arc

[@Ladygrev]

Listening to the boys talk in the last TTAZZ about how much of an influence Leslie McElroy (and her death) had on them as players and characters in the Balance arc really makes this scene so much more poignant...

[@OliviaOnline]

Fucking Trav with the double gut punch on my emotions right at the end there, huh?

[@faroshscale]

Knowing that Magnus lost Julia makes "she's gone, lucas" a little more profound

[@k.whatever9046]

even more so when u remember that the boys lost their mother too

[@salamencerobot]

when you get the nicest guy on the moon to hate you, you fucked up

[@GippyHappy]

Imagine magnus saying "you're a coward and I hate you" to you. ow my heart.

[@skullptures142]

When Magnus was pissed, the first time I listened through I was like huh that's a strong reaction but listening through everything again it's like, oh...

[@baubleBeee]

I felt really bad for Lucas during this scene, it's one of my favorites in the entire arc. This moment is just so sad to me, and everything about the exchange between Lucas and Magnus was really amazing. :0 I'm glad someone made an animatic for this! ^^

[@Sweetumskitty1789]

Magnus's passion for science is kind of cute when you remember he was chosen to go on Starblaster.

[@jengajones41]

“You’re a coward and I hate you.” has so much impact holy shit

[@ziviarich220]

this arc and ESPECIALLY this scene and E S P E CI AL L Y this animatic made me love magnus so much more

[@cerealshenanigans]

This is awesome!! I love your designs for the characters and your art style in general! :O You were definitely able to make this scene even more hard hitting with the A+ visuals!

[@heyman-27]

[@MissXHiem]

[@theolynn1736]

YALL this was my favorite part w Magnus so far omg. also i love your designs and style omg

[@graceunderpressure8092]

i'm so glad someone put this to images, this is great!!

[@izzyladd9]

I feel bad for Lucas lol. I don't care if he's morally grey and has done some shit- that's what makes interesting character imo. He will always be my favourite TAZ NPC and idc what ppl say- and this scene made me feel even more for him

[@BostonTerrierLOVE]

Ohhh, I really like the designs for the characters! And all the different frames you did!

[@kateflake]

Currently watching the balance arc and this is where I fell in love with magnus
