I will accept the break, but ONLY if the first episode back starts with Chip and Gillion says “man, that sure was one long hallway, it feels like we were walking down it for months.”
Griffon: "It's been 2 hours" Gillion: "nahhh, preeetty sure it's been like 2 YEARS, big G" Chip: "Oh. my. GOD. Big G? Little G? Could you both just SHUSH!? Jesus, man, 20 years of walking did NOT make you a patient man." MEANWHILE Jay: "Guys, don't worry, it's only been 5 minutes since we left, I'm sure they're fine"
I remember this comment from when the episode came out and it's kinda cemented itself into the canon in my head. Like it's gonna feel weird if it doesn't happen
You know it’s a Riptide episode when we are met with the most crushing gut-wrenching realization and our captains have the most heartfelt moment that definitely didn’t make me cry and then immediately afterwards are met with the most violent reading of old man yaoi smut ever known to man The best Christmas gift of an episode I could ever ask for
Holiday Break and Hiatus Info Summary: The JRWI crew will be going on a break for the holidays. This will be so they can spend time with their families and friends without having to worry about spoon feeding us content. They will be back on the 13th of January. Riptide will be going on a hiatus for no more than 6 months. This is so Grizzly can flesh out the story and plan an ending for Riptide that is satisfactory. No other campaign will be affected by this hiatus. Your defenders will still be primed, your vampires will still be sucking. NO, Riptide is NOT ending any time soon. Based on what Grizzly said in the interview in the 5 years of JRWI video (recommend watching btw), we still have roughly another year (maybe more maybe less idk). Yes, we will be getting a campaign to fill the dark puckered hole that Riptide will leave. Bizly said something about a campaign that he will be running that is steampunk themed with an underground city and shit. If you want more info, go to the end of the video after the patreon shoutouts. I am so excited for this campaign, I’m actually shitting myself. Anyways, that’s all on that. Happy holidays, my fellow JRWI enjoyers. ❤️ ‼️MAJOR UPDATE‼️6/18/24: Grizzly posted an update video on the patreon on June 1st which gave us some information on Wonderlust (the steampunk campaign DMed by Bizly) and Riptide. He said that there were a lot of complications during the hiatus making it very chaotic for the crew which is why the hiatus was a bit longer than expected. Grizzly will be DMing a short 6 episode campaign (patreon only 😢) that takes place in a world with very few humans left because it was taken over by monsters. A group of monster hunters come together in an effort to stay alive and protect each other. Unfortunately, Charlie is WAY too busy to take part in this campaign. Instead, we will have Milo on the show who you might know for being a co-host with Bizly on their podcast, Spit-take. (Which, if you haven’t watched any of those videos, you better get your ass over to their RUclips channel because it’s so fucking funny.) Anyways, I believe this campaign will be coming out before Wonderlust, most likely in the next month?? Speaking of Wonderlust, the council doesn’t have release dates yet for the episodes and I believe they haven’t started recording yet. Grizzly said they will be releasing them around August, but he isn’t sure as the hiatus has been so chaotic so far and it’s impossible to predict what schedule conflict might jump scare them next. All we know for sure is that Wonderlust is most likely coming in the next couple months. Riptide is sounding like it’s going great and, holy shit, we’re going to be hit by a tidal wave when it comes back. Grizzly said that he will be trying the make the upcoming episodes the best sessions he’s ever done. He also got help from a professional writer so you know this motherfucker is serious. I think he’s going to have a one-on-one session with Jay first, and he said something about using maps and crazy shit to spice up the episodes. As for when Riptide is coming back, I assume late August-early September but again, crazy shit happens all time for these guys so it’s hard to say. Just be prepared to get hit with a whiplash when that time *rolls* around because I don’t think we’re gonna recover after those episodes… I most likely left out some important information from the video. It’s on the patreon if you want to watch it instead of reading my shitty words. You have access to it even if you don’t have the patreon, so go in the link in the description and you’ll find it. As always, happy summer my fellow JRWI enjoyers! ❤
Chip screaming in anguish over the last chapter of Dark Puckered Hole, but then being really invested in what happens to the characters is the funniest shit ever. Way to go Grizzly, give this man a Pulizer
Well good thing cuz you're you're not going to get one for a while because you're taking a break from riptide for a little bit but they will still be doing the suckening
@@curtistester3720 yup, doing that as well, got the patreon a few months ago and have been slowly and steadily getting through apotheosis, it's so good
While I am sad that we aren’t gonna have jrwi for a while, I’m very happy that the boys and Grizzly are going on a break. You all deserve it, and we as fans will be patiently waiting for whenever you come back
I started watching this after all of the videos had already been out for a couple months, and I didn’t see any recent Riptide uploads, so I assumed the campaign was over, and I kept getting closer and closer to this episode, thinking it the last, like “this can’t be the end, they still have so much more they still need to do to fulfill the story!” and I can officially say I am SO glad that I ABSOLUTELY misinterpreted the title and place in the playlist
For about 3 months before this episode came out I wasn't keeping up with the new videos. When I noticed that no more episodes were coming out for a while I assumed that this was the final episode of riptide given the episode was called the final chapter. I put off catching up with the series because of the fear that it was over. Then recently I had a dream remembering all of the great events in the campaign which invigorated me to finish the series. Only to watch this episode and realise that the title was refereing to the final chapter of The Dark Puckered Hole
The plant is Caspian because it has to be. - The most notable crewmates are Lizzie, Marshall John, Caspian. If it's not any of these three, the betrayal won't hurt as much because the story did not develop other crewmates for viewers to be emotionally invested. - It's Lizzie's crew, it's not gonna be herself. - It's not Marshall John because that is Grizzly's first self insert. also, it mimics Jay's story too much. - Caspian joined after a someone in Lizzie's crew died. - his background is a mystery, besides being part of a tribe in the outskirts, "born and lived by the tides as they carry us where it goes". - Caspian's mother died, sister left, father fell into depression. Caspian left. Family was also impoverished. With the lack of family and financial stability, Caspian likely sought to find purpose or work and seize opportunities. like being a spy. - he left 10-15 years ago at the age of 16-18, plenty of time to be trained. - Caspian does not dream of returning home at all, unlike Gillion (initially). - Caspian seems to have bonded quickly with Lizzie, despite being a newer member of the crew - Caspian fulfilled a ridiculous request, again demonstrating extreme dedication to Lizzie ("you know for that woman I'd floated for four more and then after that I think I would I would rather die") - "we have to unite against the Navy" unity, you say? - Caspian was suddenly fully attentive at the name Finn Tidestrider. Unless Lizzie and Finn were really close, this raises suspicion, considering how Jay and Gillion didn't react like that for other former Black Rose pirates, like Rufus. If it was Lizzie hearing that name, it'd make more sense. - I was suspicious of Caspian lending his sword to Gillion when I watched the ep on July 18, 2023, I will remember this
Caspian having a reaction to Finn doesn't mean that much seeing as Finn is a notable writer and researcher in the undersea. The other ones seem plausible enough but then there's also Rudith as a notable member, and him betraying them seems also likely.
Finally caught up after over a year of watching from ep 1, and I don't know what to even say other than this is the best dnd podcast I've ever watched and I can't wait to see where the story goes from here
@@GrizzlyPlaysYT I KNEW IT! Yeah it’s super cool to listen to riptide and recognize stuff from other games, and hollow knight is too good not to be used for inspiration
callint it right now: A) they all die, sad ending B) They all die/sacrifise themselves, bittersweet ending C) One of the sacrifise themselves, bittersweet ending D) They all live, delusional ending
Chip is absolutely not going to last long, he’s needing to roll saves every night to see if he even remembers himself in the morning Jay is going to go through some shit with her family which probably won’t be good I guess gill is going to be kind of ok because the prophecy so idk
***(kind minor) Spoiler for Apotheosis*** I remember when in Apotheosis, when Peter and Rumi hooked up, they were awkward and didn't really get into detail about what happened... I miss that.
This was the scariest notification. I was genuinely readying myself for grizzly to say “and that's where our story ends. That's where we’ll end the campaign.” My relief--
Dude.. at 1:48:28 when Bizly said, "pull it out," (referring to the compass) everyone in chat just started talking about Chip "pulling it out" and "whipping it out." NOW.. I'd like to remind everyone this wasn't the only moment where Bizly/Chip is "whipping it out." At the end of 100th episode, there was a bit (starting at 3:27:38) which Bizly was aiming for Kira to get Gryffon and at one point he said (at 3:28:02): "It's the beginning of summer. It's the beginning of whirlwind of whoop ass on Kira. I'm telling you now, I'm going to whip it out. Ima-" I will NEVER let go of Bizly saying that, because Chip "whipping it out" on Kira has to be the most vile and hilarious shit I've ever heard.
I dont know why but somehow this episode feels so perfect It has all the character development and even feels nostalgic We have the funsies and the sadness The dread and excitement And it slowly starts feeling like we're approaching the end of an arc, of an era Which is sad but very nice And i cannot believe this is where we're left off for around 6 months But i fully understand and support a creative writing break to really give this project what it deserves. I will wait to the ends of the earth for riptide. Forever. And always. Ps: Never leave Gillion and Chip alone /hj
This Found-Family trope got me crying.... Again ... *Edit* made it to the end of the video and I got 2 things: 1) God bless the bois, may they take these next months to relax and have fun. Keep them safe, happy, healthy, and find peace and joy in the fantastic work they do. AMEN! 2) GET YOURSELF A FRIEND LIKE BIZLY!
personal theory of mine that the military is raising child soldiers that are from the undersea. The only undersea characters that are above sea and are of high importance that we can trust are gillion(banished by undersea) and peepaw(one of the undersea's greatest schollars). We know of gillion's sister who was talking to Grandma ferin and Caspeian who was originally part of black beards crew (we dont know his full backstory as to why he is there, we only know he is from a small unknown part of the under sea.) We also know the undersea were having conversations with the military. Pepaw and gillion have good reason to be out of the undersea, but we have no clue how Caspeian and gillion's sister left(we know undersea people dont leave because of how people reacted to seeing gillion in allport). Caspeian could also have been the reason the navy managed to find black beard and kill him. This also means lizzy has been blaming herself for nothing and that the true person to blame was the person who was next to her(also, caspeian is way too good at magic and fighting when compared to gillion who trained from birth in the undersea so he could be millitary trained.)this also gives lizzy's backstory and her bad relationship with Jay to be fixed even a little bit more We could also argue that gillion's sister may be a tool used by the military to control gillion who is the apparent chosen hero of the world. We could also say they are clones using the technology from the old navy base Or mind control because grizzly briefly mentioned a machine that made gillion feel like he wanted use any frustration he had to swear loyalty with the military(which might mean gillion could also betray chip and Jay like some kind of sleeper agent.) Also it doesn't make much sense how caspeian knew about edyn and introduced her almost out of nowhere. *Sorry for any Grammer and spelling mistake I don't speak English fluently and auto correct will kill me*
This show hurts me ALSO I HAVE A GOOD TIME DURING HIATUS!! SPOLIERS!! Jay and chips relationship has felt like it’s changed so much during the series, and this being basically the first time they split up destroyed me mentally/pos
Yea I sobbed HARDDDDD These silly pirates mean the world to me. Though I’m sad we won’t see em for a while, I think this is a beautiful note to “end” on. I hope everyone on the JRWI team enjoys their break! Take all the kind rest you need, and prioritize yourself. Happy Holidays, all!
Hey Jrwi gang, im just writing to wish yall a good break! Gods know you all have earned it. You all work super hard to give us all our blurbos and i thank you from the bottom of my heart. This podcast has made me laugh, cry, and yell so many times i have lost count. My only problem with it is that i didnt check it out sooner. So again please take it easy and enjoy your break!
wdym the last chapter..// I’ve heard the warnings I’m so worried I’m devastated, can’t believe riptides ending in like 1 or 2 years. Been here since the first campaign, but I started really watching around ep 10-12 of riptide. Changed my life genuinely, thank you everyone.
So, that's why it's called "the last chapter" I thought it would be the end of the campaign, even though i was skeptical, but my joy in learning they were only on break was replaced with abject horror when i learned the true meaning. Surely the whole book will get published, i'd buy.
Im gonna be listening to this one so many times over the break. Yall deserve as much time as you need to make this into a story you are proud to tell. I know its gonna be worth it.
i am all caught up now. took me like 2 months ish maybe a bit more of just binging between lectures. and this has been a rollercoaster of just awesomeness I can't wait for another 1 - 2 years of this story, its got me hooked man.
A LOT of people on Patreon and of course, Chip and Jay think that the perpetrator is Caspian, did we forget that Rudith is also on their ship? We don't know much about him and haven't learned much since La Alma!
I’m gonna miss riptide if they’re actually taking a 6 month break, that’s the rest of my life as a high schooler wth ;_; They all deserve this break though, so far the story is the best and I can’t wait to hear the rest of it! Alsooo steampunk is one of my favorite genres so that campaign better not be patreon only >.>
Grizzly, bruh! I do not believe for a second that this is your first time doing erotic literature! If you wrote that chapter in about 40 minutes then you have some form of prior experience! This episode was absolutely fire, love the way that the story has been playing out and it's so interesting to see how things will go with the crew split up to accomplish two different time sensitive goals. High Roller and damn proud of it! Looking forward to the return from hiatus!
grizzly's smut reads like wattpad fanfic written by an intellectual. it's flowery and genuinely emotional at times, but then it's also... the mega cum blast.
SPOILERS IF YET TO WATCH)) Am I the only one who thinks the traitor is marchel john, like it'd be devastating yes, but caspian has been with lizzie since black beard I think and rudith has lived on an island that doesn't favor navy then on a ship that doesn't favor navy, and eydn.. well I don't think edyn is even on lizzie's ship or crew, just an ally. So dispite everything, in my head, this only leaves john. I mean yeah sure he got imprisoned and attacked a navy an admiral but like, weren't people undercover so hidden that not even other people undercover knew. And didn't he say he already got the idea of becoming a pirate from lizzie before gillion, and since the head admiral apparently could "pay a visit to jay if she wanted", so they were watched, that could have easly been cause Caspian's calls could be easly communicated to john, or maybe something else idk, I'm just rambling, but that's my theory and we have a few months to debate.
I kinda think it IS Caspian but it could very well be martial John! I will wail at either *sob* A few more tears at Caspian though because not only is he my favorite npc in riptide, but there is also a chance then that he gave the order to kill Ava-- very small chance but it's THERE.

I will accept the break, but ONLY if the first episode back starts with Chip and Gillion says “man, that sure was one long hallway, it feels like we were walking down it for months.”
That is definitely a Charlie thing to say
They just hear “Traitor”
Griffon: "It's been 2 hours"
Gillion: "nahhh, preeetty sure it's been like 2 YEARS, big G"
Chip: "Oh. my. GOD. Big G? Little G? Could you both just SHUSH!? Jesus, man, 20 years of walking did NOT make you a patient man."
MEANWHILE
Jay: "Guys, don't worry, it's only been 5 minutes since we left, I'm sure they're fine"
I remember this comment from when the episode came out and it's kinda cemented itself into the canon in my head. Like it's gonna feel weird if it doesn't happen
“months” :(
I like to imagine that Gillion represents the Moon and the Sea, Jay represents the Sun and the Sky, and Chip represents the Earth and the Land
Chip is also definitely fire. That man is a walking fire hazard.
@@Jezziboltlights his bed on fire on the regular
Bed wetter? Nah, Bed dryer
@@Technova4689 bed burner was right there man...
best part of the episode was when chip went "This really was our riptide! I feel a song coming on, hit it gill!" and they all got sturdy with it
where.
That feels like something they’d do as an April fools session
time update! as of #115, Riptide (including the rolled's) is at an astonishing 250 hours and 16 minutes!
(this includes hole in the sea one-shot, & the chip/jay one-shot as well)
I came here going “uh oh angst” AND GILLION WAS READING DARK PUCKERED HOLE INSTEAD
I SAW YOU SHOW UP IN THE LIVE CHAT LMFAOOO THATS SUCH FUNNY TIMING
@@sapphicwithapen LMAO yea I’d already listened on patreon so I knew it would happen but I didn’t expect to get jumpscared by it immediately-
I was so worried
You know it’s a Riptide episode when we are met with the most crushing gut-wrenching realization and our captains have the most heartfelt moment that definitely didn’t make me cry and then immediately afterwards are met with the most violent reading of old man yaoi smut ever known to man
The best Christmas gift of an episode I could ever ask for

‼️MAJOR UPDATE‼️6/18/24:
Grizzly posted an update video on the patreon on June 1st which gave us some information on Wonderlust (the steampunk campaign DMed by Bizly) and Riptide. He said that there were a lot of complications during the hiatus making it very chaotic for the crew which is why the hiatus was a bit longer than expected.

Marshall John is self insert but could've totally stayed navy. And niklaus is self insert I think? But I stand by it bc Jay parallel
Wasn't Caspian there for ava’s death?? But why he is my favorite character--

Same
The excerpt really checked off all the worst diction. orbs, swimming in eyes, tongues fought/battle for dominance, growl, arched his back
The riptide hiatus baby has been born and is now living its first month of life
49:30 “despite everything, it’s still you.” Moment
Last episode before the hiatus and I've heard the warnings I am so terrified
I'm terrified to know what finn would do if he found the elusive crawfish
Didn’t he find one in the prequel one shot and surf on it?
15:12 so this is totally a hollow knight reference, right? “Higher beings, these words are for you alone”

I don’t believe the 6 month wait is for grizz to write riptide. It’s to finish 50 shades of Fins his new gay erotica novel.
1:29:44 hearing goobleck was something else made me chuckle
Cant believe Jay is the ultimate lost hybrid princess!!!!
Damn this episode is a year old now that’s kinda crazy to me
Happy 1 year anniversary to this episode I guess 😭😭
I am usually a podcast listener. I had to come to the video version to see live dark puckered hole reactions
This was the scariest notification. I was genuinely readying myself for grizzly to say “and that's where our story ends. That's where we’ll end the campaign.” My relief--
After the first one, I actually skipped and saved myself from the evil, hellish words of the Dark Puckered Hole book
Dude.. at 1:48:28 when Bizly said, "pull it out," (referring to the compass) everyone in chat just started talking about Chip "pulling it out" and "whipping it out."
NOW.. I'd like to remind everyone this wasn't the only moment where Bizly/Chip is "whipping it out."
At the end of 100th episode, there was a bit (starting at 3:27:38) which Bizly was aiming for Kira to get Gryffon and at one point he said (at 3:28:02):
"It's the beginning of summer. It's the beginning of whirlwind of whoop ass on Kira.
I'm telling you now, I'm going to whip it out. Ima-"
I will NEVER let go of Bizly saying that, because Chip "whipping it out" on Kira has to be the most vile and hilarious shit I've ever heard.
As a patreon viewer good luck guys 😭😭😭
Don't say that
Why do you wish us to suffer
WHAT DO YOU MEAN ……
What does that mean
🤣😂i know the last chapter is great
I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR "WELCOME HOME" THE FIRST FEW TIMES I LISTENED TO THAT PART, THAT IS CRAZY
NO BECAUSE WTF DID THE VOICE MEAN BY THAT?? WAS CHIP BIRTHED IN THE HOLE DIMENSION?? IS THAT WHY HE KNOWS CELESTIAL???
In case you forgot that this was a comedy podcast, enjoy the absolute LUNACY of this episode.
1:08:10 IS THAT WHY IS TITLE IS THE LAST CHAPTER-
Damnit, Dark Puckered Hole wins again
I can’t wait for the possible bebo campaign
Also Grizzly can take as much time as he needs as long as we have fan art we will be okay!
I thought "The Last Chapter" was reffering to the team splitting up.....
AND NOT OLD MAN YAOI
This episode is so fucking good there are so many good character moments and most importantly DARK PUCKERED HOLE RETURNS!
This episode was a HOLE lotta fun
I dont know why but somehow this episode feels so perfect
It has all the character development and even feels nostalgic
We have the funsies and the sadness
The dread and excitement
And it slowly starts feeling like we're approaching the end of an arc, of an era
Which is sad but very nice
And i cannot believe this is where we're left off for around 6 months
But i fully understand and support a creative writing break to really give this project what it deserves.
I will wait to the ends of the earth for riptide. Forever. And always.
Ps: Never leave Gillion and Chip alone /hj
This Found-Family trope got me crying.... Again ...
*Edit*
made it to the end of the video and I got 2 things:
1) God bless the bois, may they take these next months to relax and have fun. Keep them safe, happy, healthy, and find peace and joy in the fantastic work they do. AMEN!
2) GET YOURSELF A FRIEND LIKE BIZLY!
personal theory of mine that the military is raising child soldiers that are from the undersea.
The only undersea characters that are above sea and are of high importance that we can trust are gillion(banished by undersea) and peepaw(one of the undersea's greatest schollars). We know of gillion's sister who was talking to Grandma ferin and Caspeian who was originally part of black beards crew (we dont know his full backstory as to why he is there, we only know he is from a small unknown part of the under sea.) We also know the undersea were having conversations with the military.
Pepaw and gillion have good reason to be out of the undersea, but we have no clue how Caspeian and gillion's sister left(we know undersea people dont leave because of how people reacted to seeing gillion in allport).
Caspeian could also have been the reason the navy managed to find black beard and kill him. This also means lizzy has been blaming herself for nothing and that the true person to blame was the person who was next to her(also, caspeian is way too good at magic and fighting when compared to gillion who trained from birth in the undersea so he could be millitary trained.)this also gives lizzy's backstory and her bad relationship with Jay to be fixed even a little bit more
We could also argue that gillion's sister may be a tool used by the military to control gillion who is the apparent chosen hero of the world.
We could also say they are clones using the technology from the old navy base
Or mind control because grizzly briefly mentioned a machine that made gillion feel like he wanted use any frustration he had to swear loyalty with the military(which might mean gillion could also betray chip and Jay like some kind of sleeper agent.)
Also it doesn't make much sense how caspeian knew about edyn and introduced her almost out of nowhere.
*Sorry for any Grammer and spelling mistake I don't speak English fluently and auto correct will kill me*
I love this but I swear if I find out that gillian needed 1 extra point to turn John and we were wrong the whole time
Gill reading smut will never get old.
Back here again. It’s just now occurring to me that we’re probably approaching the finale.
After nearly a year and a half starting from episode one, I finally made it.. I’m sad to see it’s on hiatus. I can’t wait for it to come back.
Happy sad-iversary Everyone!! Im nearly done with my notated rewach and the circumstance are actually much worse than I could have imagined :)
Dark Puckered Hole is simultaneously the best and worst written thing I’ve ever had the displeasure of listening to, beautiful.
This show hurts me
ALSO I HAVE A GOOD TIME DURING HIATUS!!
SPOLIERS!!
Jay and chips relationship has felt like it’s changed so much during the series, and this being basically the first time they split up destroyed me mentally/pos
alphonze soul chip + doppel gillion husk = aplhonze problem solved
Yea I sobbed HARDDDDD
These silly pirates mean the world to me. Though I’m sad we won’t see em for a while, I think this is a beautiful note to “end” on.
I hope everyone on the JRWI team enjoys their break! Take all the kind rest you need, and prioritize yourself. Happy Holidays, all!
I've spent the last year and a half getting caught up on the show, and at last, here I am.
This went from such an upsetting episode like actually gutting, to the most funny, like shaking kind of laughing funny
IF THE RAT ON LIZZIES SHIP IS CASPIAN OR MARSHALL JOHN IM THROWING MYSELF INTO THE BLACK SEA
The way I cried tears of joy when the Cumagoon had the come again pun oh my GOD my year is made
Hey Jrwi gang, im just writing to wish yall a good break! Gods know you all have earned it. You all work super hard to give us all our blurbos and i thank you from the bottom of my heart. This podcast has made me laugh, cry, and yell so many times i have lost count. My only problem with it is that i didnt check it out sooner. So again please take it easy and enjoy your break!
wdym the last chapter..//
I’ve heard the warnings I’m so worried
I’m devastated, can’t believe riptides ending in like 1 or 2 years. Been here since the first campaign, but I started really watching around ep 10-12 of riptide. Changed my life genuinely, thank you everyone.
So, that's why it's called "the last chapter"
I thought it would be the end of the campaign, even though i was skeptical, but my joy in learning they were only on break was replaced with abject horror when i learned the true meaning.
Surely the whole book will get published, i'd buy.
Okay but, hear me out, what if Jay somehow encounters Filipe?
6 months on this cliffhanger???? AGHHHH
Take a well deserved break guys, we love the content and we love Riptide 🥳
Bro there are so many plot twist and so much whiplash in this ep i might as well be doing pirouettes!
Sobbing at the little "i love you"s
Crying in the club rn
Hey Grizz what the fuck do you mean “Welcome home”???? HEY GRIZZ-
Wait wait wait watching this again two months later WHAT DID HE MEAN?? is this hell- didn't Chip not have a name? *starts sweating*
So nice of Charlie to join us from the void today
15:11 Higher beings, these words are for you.
To anyone who was panicked from the title- that’s my bad- I recommended it on patreon and… y e a h.
I feel no remorse
Im gonna be listening to this one so many times over the break. Yall deserve as much time as you need to make this into a story you are proud to tell. I know its gonna be worth it.
Cried for this one guys…good luck… see yall when the hiatus is done ❤❤
6 MONTHS WITHOUT MY PIRATES, OH GOD
Oh boy I can't wait to watch this totally wholesom episode of Riptide! Nothing will cause anything bad to happen!
GUYS IM SCARED WHAT DO YOU MEAN GOOD LUCK??? Literally petrified of what’s about to happen..
i am all caught up now. took me like 2 months ish maybe a bit more of just binging between lectures. and this has been a rollercoaster of just awesomeness I can't wait for another 1 - 2 years of this story, its got me hooked man.
A LOT of people on Patreon and of course, Chip and Jay think that the perpetrator is Caspian, did we forget that Rudith is also on their ship? We don't know much about him and haven't learned much since La Alma!
I thought Rudith stayed behind in the Edison Kingdom?? That's why we haven't heard from him, am I wrong?
@@strawberryentity3306 I could swear he's been referenced, considering he's Captain Lizzy's Helmsman for their ship
Cool, now I weep for two seperate reasons.
Okay, now I weep for a third out of nowhere reason.
1:05:15 the way i memorized this entire bit word for word is actually insane
I’m gonna miss riptide if they’re actually taking a 6 month break, that’s the rest of my life as a high schooler wth ;_;
They all deserve this break though, so far the story is the best and I can’t wait to hear the rest of it!
Alsooo steampunk is one of my favorite genres so that campaign better not be patreon only >.>
1:04:06 "Better get moving, Sureshot." Why do I get the feeling this line could be poetic later in the campaign...
Grizzly, bruh! I do not believe for a second that this is your first time doing erotic literature! If you wrote that chapter in about 40 minutes then you have some form of prior experience!
This episode was absolutely fire, love the way that the story has been playing out and it's so interesting to see how things will go with the crew split up to accomplish two different time sensitive goals. High Roller and damn proud of it! Looking forward to the return from hiatus!
grizzly's smut reads like wattpad fanfic written by an intellectual. it's flowery and genuinely emotional at times, but then it's also... the mega cum blast.
Bro, when it said the last chapter, I got so scared, but I’m glad it didn’t mean what I thought, cause that chapter of DPH was so GOOD!!
spolier
yeah you heard that right, the name was just dark puckered hole reference. its not the last episode, you have been fucking played.
And I, the player, feel no remorse
i'm not even caught up (only on ep40) but this is terrifying GODO LUCK
perfect opportunity to catch up with the hiatus
@@bingusmingus9599 i remember that I caught up literally on DARK PUCKERED HOLE. Like why couldn't I have STARTED when that came out?
man i haven’t been this scared to watch a riptide vid since 98#
all for dark pucker hole T_T thank god that’s over
Grizzly is the best dm/writer I have ever witnessed and the dark puckered hole is that reason
SPOILERS IF YET TO WATCH))
Am I the only one who thinks the traitor is marchel john, like it'd be devastating yes, but caspian has been with lizzie since black beard I think and rudith has lived on an island that doesn't favor navy then on a ship that doesn't favor navy, and eydn.. well I don't think edyn is even on lizzie's ship or crew, just an ally. So dispite everything, in my head, this only leaves john. I mean yeah sure he got imprisoned and attacked a navy an admiral but like, weren't people undercover so hidden that not even other people undercover knew. And didn't he say he already got the idea of becoming a pirate from lizzie before gillion, and since the head admiral apparently could "pay a visit to jay if she wanted", so they were watched, that could have easly been cause Caspian's calls could be easly communicated to john, or maybe something else idk, I'm just rambling, but that's my theory and we have a few months to debate.
I kinda think it IS Caspian but it could very well be martial John! I will wail at either *sob*
A few more tears at Caspian though because not only is he my favorite npc in riptide, but there is also a chance then that he gave the order to kill Ava-- very small chance but it's THERE.
17:33 31:51 1:08:11 1:17:33 (I liked the man I was in the prev timestamp) 1:21:56 (shameless plug) 1:31:13 1:37:24 1:55:27 done! (I really can’t wait till the next episode, hope it’s soon)
Finished July 29 2024
this episode gave me emotional whiplash
I literally will be listening to the last minute of this every week 😭😭😭😭
