Since Gorgug quit the Owlbears, that's gotta mean he's gonna be going to Mary Ann's games
She's gonna teach him how to play and the two of them are gonna decimate every other team
nooo he’ll be there and be among the other girlfriends leading the cheers
He’ll hold onto her letterman’s jacket and I live for that
Gorgug the cheerleader!
Just cuz they smash doesn’t mean they’re gonna date
Reading all of Gorgug's antagonism for Mary Ann as "she's hot but an enemy who beat the shit outta me and I'm still listening to my ex's mixtape so I'll just deflect all of that into hatred" is so fun
I wonder what kind of mixtape Mary Ann would make for Gorgug
@@stwbmc98”This is the Strawberry Village theme from Quokki Heroes. The original, not the remaster, cuz they messed up all the music in that one. This is the Kiwi boss fight music from New Quokki Pocket Adventures. That game sucks, but the music is really good and it has Mango, who is the best romance option…”
@@ConcreteLogicVideo Gorgug still listens to it while raging because relaxing music helps him maintain that mathematical rage
He's half orc, of course he's gonna feel some kinda something for a girl that put his head through the bleachers.
@@stwbmc98For sure, but to be clear, the Kiwi boss fight music goes hard
6ft+ half orc getting physically and verbally owned by 2ft kobold.....immediate ship.
Potent.
Long distance relationship
Is this getting slammed down small style?
@@dylansickinger545 KJDHJSDKGHSJFDGLK
@@cartergross1716no i think due to the force used it it still slamming down big style
The look on everyone’s face when she asked if he had a girlfriend was anazing
Emily and Siobhan's mouths dropped at the exact same time 😂
Nobody was thinking that and then suddenly EVERYONE was thinking that
11:51
I love the little touch Brennan does acting wise at 11:00 when Fig says she’s at lime level, and Mary Ann scoots a bit closer and straightens up cause someone is actually engaging in her special interested and she’s hyped as all get out. It’s so endearing gods I love this little kobold with all my heart!!
It reminds me of talking to neurodivergent kids. They won't give a single shit until you bring up their hyperfixation, and then woe betide you if you had somewhere to be.
Brennan does all this incredible detail work to his ND characters and then if you recognize yourself in them a whole faction of the internet bursts into flames over ND people finding community and positive representation.
Mary Ann rocks. Imo she’s a great representation of the kind of autistic traits people like to dunk on the most, and seeing a group of teenage characters have an immediate and strong positive reaction to her lowkey healed wounds I’d thought had closed better. You really don’t forget how othered people make you feel, or why they get so nasty when you just try to disengage. Maybe it didn’t matter at all to Mary Ann that so many people openly and repeatedly told her she was really cool and interesting, and that’s great too. But like, shit dude, it mattered to me.
@@Lucifersfursonai know right. it made me so happy how immediately accepting of her the bad kids/intrepid heroes were and it’s just so nice. they didn’t even judge her like a single time and even tho she’s an “antagonist” they immediately wanted her to be in their party
Honestly a great part of that interaction haha
@Lucifersfursona Mary Ann and Ayda both mean so much to me for the same reasons. It was so real for me when that strawberry got burned because it was so clearly a comfort object. I also super love Stardew Valley, it has such amazing soothing vibes in a world that gets overwhelming and confusing. Mary Ann is so real
So it started with Mary Ann smashing Gorgug into bleachers and ended with them smashing on a bench. It all came full circle
STOP because why are you right
I mean yeah he came alright
@@energypinecat4560 but did Mary Ann? He didn't see. 😂
It's buttoned up
Gorgug managing to get the hottest character of this season after spending all year disliking her for beating him at Bloodrush is such a payoff. They gave us enemies to lovers without really noticing it.
I love how Oisin and Ivy were clearly supposed to be the hot ones and we just collectively were like, "but that kobold in the cuddly hoodie...tell me about HER"
@RenaRain Honestly not surprisingly, that tends to happen in D&D 😂
Gorgug got slammed down big style on that bench
first on the field, second on the bench
Slammed down, small style?
Thank god, the best d20 character is memorialized forever
Say it, don't spray it.
God she’s perfect.
idk how this clicks but somehow it does. true carbon monoxide energy
I want to like but the nubber of likes is at 911
The Aguefort family are still #1 and #2 for me, but she’s close hahaha
Omg i never noticed gorgug scoffing in offense when Kristen gives mary ann a squishmallow 😭😭😭
and then getting hopeful and raising his hands when he asks "so you don't need it?"
@HTownOso first sign they belonged together. Two barbarians who want to be snuggled in fluffy blankets watching comfort movies.
Hey, hi. So um, are you weakest at the elbow or the shoulder?
Looooord. 😂😂💀💀💀💀
jesus christ this is the funniest thing ive read in a while
Actually hilarious
🫨🫨🫨🫨🫨
Vicious call back, 😂 Oh I love it
the shift from "are we sure?!" to "she's so hot.." - i cannot.
Gorgug's bench getting a vigorous "Yeah" was especially hilarious when put next to Fabian's 4.
the fact that fig managed to discern that with *divine sense* means that bench has been absolutely DESECRATED by whatever acts happened on it
she must REALLY have that dog in her
Since this was kind of a "season of separation" (Zelda and The Seven are off on their own adventures, Kristen and Tracker taking a break [which threw me off from Day 1], Fig and Ayda being apart in space-time but differently than Gorgug/Zelda), I was very happy that we still had something sweet to fall back on with Fabian and Mazey.
Given Fabian's attraction to Aelwyn before as something that seemed fairly surface-level (which kinda came back early with the Ecaf joke), I'm glad that we got another step on Fabian stepping into his own shoes rather than into Bill's boots. It's a returning theme I enjoy watching, even if it's also come with heartache at Bill not being available when his son tries to reach him.
Still, this surprise ship was great if for no other reason than that even the players who started out wary of Mary Ann eventually wanted it to happen as bad as everyone else.
@@edwardt.8704 it sucks that gorgug broke up with zelda, but I think the fans accepted it pretty well because 1. It's realistic that high school relationships don't tend to last long, and 2. It makes soooo much sense that gorgug would be into Mary Ann. Gorgug clearly has a type
@@liaspooked4980 yeah, but...what about Unit?
Fabian egging Gorgug on when he goes full bully by going "Nah, let him cook! Let him cook!!" was the funniest shit lmao
Most writers cannot write gen z teens to save their life but I have never felt more seen
The arc of Gorgug being completely hostile to completely and mysteriously infatuated with Mary Ann is kinda a realistic teenage drama arc.
Weirdly, I feel like Mary Ann rolling that 35 actually screwed the Rat Grinders in the long term, because the Bad Kids basically planned for the Rat Grinders rolling minumum twenty fives for the rest of the season, but than they have health and proficiency of much lower characters, so basically all of them could be bullrushed and killed in one turn, or set up with a saving throw that they were going to be less reliale against, which isn't very good if your enemy feels like they need to give you as little time as possible to do anything. They bluffed a very strong hand against someone with a stronger hand.
Whats great about this as well is that Jace himself called them out on how much they antagonized them and brought their attention on them
The best part for me is Mary Ann, in her own words, was just playing the game. She gave zero fucks about Kipperlily’s scheming or Porter’s butthurt. Uninteresting background chatter. But she’s good at games. Loves little digital experiences.
She was probably told to keep an eye on the Bad Kids, heard the parameters of the sport, and was like, okay nice, a game with clear rules, I can do that, I got that. That’s actually interesting so I’ll just do the fun interesting thing instead of my adventuring party’s boring homework.
Mary Ann is here for Mary Ann
Gorgug getting with the best girl in the series
Dragging his feet the whole way
Freshman and junior year. That's twice now 👍
i loooove that gorgug now has an established type (with the exception of unit). small, unassuming, zoomorphic barbarian girls who wear plain hoodies and have encyclopedic knowledge about their main interests. funny how it turned out that way
And boys who are literally constructs
"oh my god is mary ann coming for me?" only to cut to brennan with that hat 😂
I forgot Mary Ann is almost 2ft tall! Idk if it's just in the fan art but isn't Gorgug like 6'5"?? That's amazing
Gasp! Maybe she reminds him of his parents 😮
The wiki says 6’4” 😨
oh now that's a size difference
He definitely broke the bench
@@Guruc13hopefully not since they're smashing
I desperately need a side quest season in the vein of The Seven, where we get other players playing the Rat Grinders trying to redeem themselves. And I need Katie Marovitch to play Mary Ann.
Oh my god 😱😱
I can’t unhear it now 😂😂😂
yeees but sophmore year so we actually get to find out what happened kinda like a crown of candy 2
Katie Marovitch as Mary Ann is inspired 😂😂
Nooo that's too chaotic 😭
Katie as Mary Ann, Ify as Oisin possibly, heck I low key want Griffin McElroy as Buddy Dawn
I think Brennan's experience being a camp counselor allows him a wide array of teenage characters in his repertoire. From the endearingly cringey to the clumsy flirty to the incel-risk to the try hards to the average teenager lol
I find it very cool and reminds me of the people I know in highschool :)
“Brennan’s experience being a camp counselor allows him a wide arrange of teenage girls in his repertoire.”
@@ItsMeCharkey Jail for you instantly
@@SeveralGhost ;)
- Brennan’s autistic character range
- Mary Ann Scuttle’s untouchable autistic rizz
I am so tired of the internett telling me l am autistic. 😅
Especially MS's intro scene was me ; in highschool and now. Ppl IRL do not know what to do with my inscrutable nonplussedness.
@@tazulrich8207 ... i hate to tell you, but you are not mary ann skuttle lmao. i don't think anyone is calling you autistic because you're similar to a character
@@tazulrich8207 what the other dude said, being a hardcore introvert will make you seem like autistic but nor necessarily one
@@joemama-zm4de I'm also generally tired of people calling characters autistic even though there is no actual bass to it and the character is just mildly awkward. Marie Anne is canonically autistic though, so that doesn't apply here.
@@treacle4617 Where's that stated?
The way Brennan delivers the "Say it don't spray it." line slays me every time I watch it.
“Say it don’t spray it…” and you take 2d6 psychic damage…
Zac's ability to incorporate his own confusion into the improvisation will never not be funny to me. If he doesn't know what's going on, he just makes that part of the scene. Not a "yes, and" but the rarer, more elusive "huh??"
Prime examples:
• "Who do you know here?"
• "Is it mango soda? This freak thinks it's mango soda!"
• "IN REAL LIFE??"
• "Yeah...???"
"Who do you know in this room right now?!" lives rent free in my head ever since I watched it for the first time
“My dad makes benches in his workshop”
“I like to sit down”
*Ah, an homage to real teens and their terrible rizz*
You leave The Ball out of this!
Hard disagree, “I like to sit down” is a perfect response. It’s not gross, it’s accepting an invitation that another person might not have picked up on, he didn’t make fun of her for saying something seemingly unrelated, he didn’t make her feel awkward, he didn’t lie, imo it was a very funny and sweet thing to say.
Her dad makes benches, and he likes to sit down.
@@Lucifersfursona exactly! i thought it was genuinely genius lmao
"I like to sit down" is the perfect example of what I call "rizzastrous." What's being said, in a vacuum, is incredibly lame. However, it's *so* apposite, so appropriate as a response, and said with such easy confidence that it's 100% charismatic. It shouldn't be, it's awkward, but jesus it's remarkable.
I haven't high hopes for people who use "Rizz" unironically :P
There’s something so CAPTIVATING about Gorgug asking where to get Quokki pets and Mary Ann returning SO much attitude back, truly the most expressive she’s been all year and if I’m honest… 🤷🏾♀️ it was more alluring
(Spoilers) Would love to see Mary Ann become an official unofficial bad kid. Actually, now that I think about it, Emily said that she wanted to retire fig for junior year but Brennan asked her to play fig (cuz of Porter) and with her dropping out of Aguefort at the end of the season, who knows maybe in a hypothetical senior year she would play Mary Ann since she loves her and relates to her (as much as it would hurt to not have her play fig)
That’s what I thought! Especially because Emily said Mary Ann was exactly how she was in high school lol
I'd love that but I don't know if Emily can contain her pure joy for things enough to RP a nonplussed character all season.
@@soren5312 you're so right lol
@@soren5312 yep it would definitely be a change of pace for her 😊
I have a feeling she's going to play Lucy Frostblade in Senior Year. Since Fig is dropping out the bad kids have an opening and Lucy's party fully killed her before (plus we haven't seen much of her so Emily could take what we know and elaborate on her character)
Mary Ann Skuttle may have only had sub 15 minutes of air time but her scenes play on an endless loop in my HEART
Mary Ann means so much to me as someone who believes she is the non-quirky yet still hella rizzed autism representation mirror of Ayda and NOT the cannon Meta Trope of her being a dnd player who only cares about figting and not the theater of the mind part
Mary Ann and Ayda are my favorite characters. Love my little autistic girlies.
I can't wait for Gorgug and Mary Ann to win prom king and queen on senior year (it's safe now)
I...I think Mary Ann has been into Gorgug since the beginning...I think that the tackle in the beginning was supposed to be a glomp
glomp XD
Mary Ann asking about Gorgug’s “mango soda” was definitely her trying to flirt but he was caught so off guard he resorted to full bully.
glomp…. I haven’t heard that word in years…….
she simply has that dog in her
A 6ft + half orc and a 2ft tall kobolt... She really does have that dog in her.
never noticed the mango soda line, great foreshadow by brennan
I really wanted the situationship with Unit from Artificer class to sail. Hopefully Gorgug can be the first of the bad kids to be successfully poly because Unit was one of my favorite characters. I think Mary Ann and Unit would get along.
Let's be real, only Ally can safely navigate a fictional poly relationship on screen 😂
considering his parents are poly/swingers, he does have a lot of resources and guidance :D
Reminder to everyone that no one, NO ONE, dates Zac Oyama characters but Brennan Lee Mulligan.
Gorgug and Mary Ann both with that STUNNING Barbarian rizz. Just amazing!
Emily will play Mary Ann in Senior Year as a main character 4 years from now
Truly one of the most bafflingly likable characters in all of fiction
Mary Anne is so special interest autism coded and I love it
Yeah
I'm obsessed with her and thought I was gonna have to make this myself cause I couldn't find one with all of her appearances. This is awesome!! Thanks so nuch ❤
2:09 the pure fanatical belief in Emily’s eyes is… frightening
I guess after being raised by gnomes, Gorgug got a thing for tiny people hahaha
The missed opportunity after fig said “Gorgug you dog” for someone to say “she had the dog in her”
doing the lords work
You know, Kobolds often worship dragons-
But here we are, all worshiping a Kobold.
And she deserves it.
Note to self: be social-awkward funny
Second note to self: Ask interest if they have a boyfriend.
Third note to self: if they seem interested but not *interested* then make effectively a side quest to get into contact with me.
Fourth note to self: lower your standards.
6:44 I don't feel good
8:20 Oh no
8:58 You burned my Strawberry
Mary Ann u will forever be an icon....
I love Fabian’s annoyance that Riz forgot the name of blood rush
crutially, gorgug and mary anne have a four foot height difference
I love how well rounded Mary Ann is. Shes both an athlete and Quokki pets master.
Mary Ann, they could never make me hate you (nor could Brennan make half of the table hate you)
I’m just now being reminded that Mary Ann is 2 ft tall and Gorgug is 6’4” 😂😂
I relate to Mary Ann and I am concerned that might be a bad thing. 😂
it isn't, there's a whole adventuring party where they discuss how realistic of a depiction she is and everybody loves her
no that’s an amazing thing. youre perfect
Remember: Brennan dedicated Mary Ann to *real* teens, not the trope-y teen media the rest of Fantasy High is built upon!
To piggy back off the previous reply about Mary Ann being a *real* teen, Mary Ann is relatable by design. We're all much closer to Mary Ann than we are to any other character. Hell, even Emily had said she's way more similar to Mary Ann than she is similar to Fig.
@@AMnotQ I think my concern is I’m 28 relating to a realistic teenager in a DnD campaign.
I’ve been looking for this comp for so long
Hard to Destroy Reptile glowed up
A lifetime in Camp Counseling allows Brennan to channel a whole generation of teens into this character
The fact that I just realized she is a 2 ft tall kolbold and Gorgug is a tall half-orc after re-watching this makes the ending so much funnier to me
"I like to sit down" gotta be one of Zac's best responses
She is the character of all time
The only girl ever like mary ann skuttle, the epitome of girlhood that you are
truly one of brennan's best
thank you Mary Ann for the assist 🙌
Dude I’ve been looking for a comp like this alll day this is so fucking perfect thank you
thank you for your service 🍓
There’s something so funny about Brennan wearing that hat and screeching internally
What is with Gorgug and socially awkward girls in hoodies XD
Oh thank you for this, I needed this so much! I am crying watching this with tears of hilarity. I love her so much!
The number of times I say "MHHHHHHM! youburntmystrawberry" every week.
As a former high school teacher, I have never seen a more accurate portrayal of a teenager. Queen shit, honestly.
The funniest thing is that Divine Sense is only suposed to sense strong sources of holy/unholy energy, so to Fig to immediately pick up that Gorgug and Mary Ann smashed on that bench must mean that some serious debauchery happened there, the kind of thing you would expect from Gorgug's parents
God I love her thank u so much
I almost painted my desk with a mouthful of pasta because of that last tidbit so I just wanna say thank you
Gorgug sure seems to have a thing for digitigrade legs
Been waiting for this one ☝️
I'm not gonna lie the "I like to sit down" shocked me more than any 'Blimey' ever could
11:57
Emily’s reaction to this is absolutely amazing
13:47 Zac Oyama's genius comedic timing, ladies and gentlemen! 😂😂
Omg, Mary Ann has been on my mind constantly all summer, and I don't even have dropout lmaoo
Maybe because I relate to her so much, maybe because the fact she and gorgug canonically smashed on a bench, really nothing is better lmao
I will always howl laugh at Zac's confused "yeah?" just after @13:56
THIS IS THE VIDEO IVE BEEN WAITING FORRRR 💪💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏🙏 HOT RAH HOOT RAH HOOT RAH
Mary Ann is Tina Belcher's fursona.
I forgot Mary Ann is 2 ft... Makes the Bench with Gorgug who is well over 6ft take on a new level.
So conflicted because I loved her interactions with Gorgug but I miss him and Zelda
Ok you got me with the stinger 😂
Thank you for making this!
"MaryAnn and the Ball the wrecking crew" is such a good line 😂
Best dnd character ive ever seen
No no, let him cook!
Lou being a full on instigator 😂
The raw power of apathy
I was really hoping at the very end, Kristen would drop out of the race so that Mary Ann would win the election
"I like to sit down" 💥💯
I did not register that Marry Anne is just two feet tall 😂😂🤣
THANK YOU
The screech at the end !
I…, ,, missed the whole “2 feet tall” factoid.
