Fireside Chat with Grizz & Condi

Hey everyone! This weekend we'll be recording a fireside chat featuring Condi & Grizz. Leave any curiosities for the two in the comments, whether JRWI related or not! One comment per person, please.

Additionally, the next Judgement episode will not be releasing this weekend as our team has caught the plague. Thank you for your patience!

Comments

Is Charlie too busy to do all that much with podcast merch bc I only ever hear about Bizly being the one working on merch, and because Charlie is busy being popular is he just too busy to work on things for the podcast?

Dingdongdude

Do you guys ever slip into character voices in wierd contexts? Sometimes after playing with my group I’ll start doing my NPCs voices while around the house and stuff so I imagine you guys might have a similar problem 😭

TotallyNotNP

Are there any plans to go back to a 2 release per week schedule? Rather than 1? Just wondering cuz I really enjoyed that schedule and it really helped me a lot through uni and work.

Mateter

Will we ever get art of older characters who diden't have it wenn they were introduced

mif

Who should I think for the crazy good sound designs in the newer campagains? Could we get a shout out for all the behind the scenes people that make this podcast so awesome?

Lenky

If you guys had to have sex with any one of your characters which one would you choose

Ultra boss 55

It's slightly meta, but what race and class would your characters play in D&D if they were to play it? (aka, what do you think their escapism character would be?)

Camden

What tabletop systems are you guys excited to try in the future?

Ariana Lahore

I noticed that Condi and Griz have slightly different dm styles. What do either of you prioritize when planning your sessions and what tips can you provide dms in either of those areas?

Kyra Pear

gimmick___

Favorite npcs to DM?

TiredLilFella The Real One

What is your favorite character (pc) in your campaigns

Calvin Tatton

I know people have asked this already but just to increase chances, what do you tell your players before a campaign so they can build their characters around it? Or do you collaborate? I'm trying to DM for a campaign and I don't know how I could get them to integrate their relationships into the lore without giving everything away

Benjamin L.M

In all jrwi who was your favorite character to dm for/play

Josh Farmer

Who would each of your characters main in Mariokart?

Bugzy_Cos

Good luck with the game! Co-DMs is honestly the way to go, as DMing can be a lot of work if you have no one to help out

Vyrion-157

Do you have any tips in regards to world building? I am currently trying to get into being a DM, I have an (in my opinion) amazing campaign setting. However, I am currently having trouble with world building and fitting all the pieces together.

HighInPotassium

What’s your favourite deli meat

Fan of ham

When Riptide ends, will there be a grand reveal that Finn has somehow already managed to write another sex book? On a more serious note, do you have any tips on improvising scenes while maintaining immersion? How do you handle fight scenes when you don't have a character sheet for the NPC the players are fighting? Lastly, what characters have been your favorite to play and why? Thank you!

Grunch

Would you rather...? The setting: imagine a 100x100x10 room, nothing on the floors or walls The question: Between 5 Helen Kellers with assault rifles or 20 stephen hawkings with instantaneously accelerating wheelchairs up to 30 mph trying to run you over , who are you choose to beat in a fight and why?

Ivanavich

Any tips for getting into a good creative headspace for writing? (Whether it be for dnd plot or music such as Smoke With The Devil or Hole in Your Heart.) I feel like I can get such good ideas for dnd plots or songs but when it comes down to sitting down and actually writing or expanding on ideas, ADHD brain goes BrRRRRrrrRrRr lol.

Nicholas Fogelquist

Is there an anniversary for WiWi’s funeral?

TiredLilFella The Real One

more about vyncent and dakoas relations towards eachother?

Snezzing

I’d love to hear about your first experiences with dnd, and when you each had the moment where dnd ‘clicked’ for you. Do you guys remember your very first dnd characters/campaigns?

Dee

I don’t know if you answered this elsewhere, but will there ever be a prime defenders season 3?

Rice Buchanan

Is Milo joining the cast as a more permanent member? If so will they join the “main” campaigns too or just exclusive ones?

Calummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

If each campagin had an art style as if it was an animated show or a comic book, which ones do you personally think fit the different stories best?

Bonnie Connelly

What’s your favourite source for music in the campaigns?

James Thomas

How is the future for jrwi looking, anything upcoming that you can reveal?

I_don't_pay_taxes

On god, homelander can prob put up a fight tho

Theory

What do you two do to stay consistent and on track with your world building and lore writing? As a fellow writer I tend to get bogged down in the minor details so I’d be curious to hear if you have any tips on managing priorities (Boring question, I know).

Gunkymunkyspunk

how do you practice your voices for your characters? what do you say to practice them? how do you not look crazy talking to yourself?

Hababagagaba

Semi-Spoiler Question: Grizzly, what inspired you to design the Black Sea and that of the Hallowed Undead? Was this completely homebrewed or was there an inspiration? The horrific nature of the twisted inflicted was chilling, alongside the speed in which a friendly NPC can turn. It was all great stuff. Also, did you ever consider completely corrupting an NPC in the party to slim down the overall cast for an easier time DMing?

Agar Steeljaw

Do y’all have any tips on how you make and roleplay your characters? Everyone is always so interesting but not too crazy that they aren’t relatable!

Ren

Since both of you have campaigns that have concluded, are there any random lore/world building tidbits you could share with us?

Krowan

Treasure Planet

Krowan

😕you just dont understand the inner machinations of my mind

mandsymbolm

Grizz how do you keep coming up with wonderful characters?

CatBoi520

moonbeast or beastmoon

Phantom Phoenix

Yo! Just wanted to ask what your favorite moments have been during any of your many campaigns?

Nolan Jones

Better yet, the stick’s magical ability is it’s coolness

SillyBilly

what if the stick was just a very cool stick with absolutely no magical abilities besides being so fucking cool

The Eggineer

the lost pd chess episode

The Eggineer

well he was a weasel for a bit so that might be it

The Eggineer

die.

The Eggineer

wildkratts no diff

The Eggineer

bro has NOT seen Convergence

The Eggineer

Question for condi (can’t do grizzly since he probably knows what’s going to happen) Since riptide has been gone I’ve been thinking about what’s going to happen in the hole in the sea and if Arlin is even there. What do you think is down there and do you think Arlin is down there? I would be personally devastated if chip went down there and Arlin wasn’t there. I know jay isn’t going in the hole herself but it would be cool to know what you think is down there. Thanks again!

Lyla Harper

what are your respective favorite bands/artists and why? (you can cheat a little by having multiple favorites)

VeeVee

why?

Po1nty

Why doesn't both Grizz or Condi, either rarely, or never upload on their channels anymore?

(Insert Name)

always wondered did any of you guys play granblue fantasy? i notice a ton of the soundtrack sprinkled in the show.

Poke

What are some of the things that have gone into making this show, and more specifically now the new website, happen? What kind of work is happening behind the scenes that takes these ideas and puts them out into the world? Anything you can think of: brainstorming, session 0s, pre-production, post-production, anything. (I know this is kinda long of a question, but I’m a journalist, I literally do this for a living.)

Bailey Wilson

Question for grizz, is weezy F baby still alive? Did he survive the hole in the sea? Will he make a grand appearance during riptide? Also really good to see condi back in the DM chair, judgement is very entertaining

LickSquid

Mythborne? Please

J-star

What advice would you give to new dms making their own campaign and what is the best way to prep for upcoming sessions (in your opinion)

PicKyle1

DPH full release when /j /please don’t do this

Blue J

I can answer that one. Word association games got a little crazy

Blue J

Seconding this one actually woah

Blue J

what would be any of your characters' top songs on their Spotify wrapped

Bread

Is the stick going to be actually a big component to Nicklaus and them or was it a gag ( please I need a reason to over analyze the stick 💀 )

SillyBilly

Q-What Campaigns have you heard that you wish you could have run or played through? **Not saying you think you could have done better, but as a listener and a “Lore hor” there are times where I wished the players had more time and explored places more or forced the dm into more funny npc interactions. I appreciate and Thankyou for all yall do!! =-)

Sam

How does one possibly contain the Bibly (Bizly)?

Nolan Anspach

How do you guys plan a session as a DM? I'm about to dual DM a session with my cousin to try and split the workload but we are both completely new to it.

Mdekitty_14

What is everyone's favourite class to play? Are there any campaign ideas that have been losely thrown around but not committed to yet? (sci-fi campaign and my life is yours) Where do you guys look for inspiration for characters? Whats the process of designing new merch like? At this point, how big of a team works on jrwi?

KuroKultre

I was wondering the same, in my group we play all sorts, I'd definitely recommend mörkborg for a dark fantasy or mothership for a really awesome space horror :) but there's so many systems out there to try

Luna Lou

first of all, u guys are amazing, and this podcast has genuinely helped me through some pretty hard times, and while i haven't been a patreon member the whole time ive been a listener since the very beginning, keep being amazing guys. ok anyway with that out of the way, what are your guys favorite bits from the podcast as a whole?

SparklySkittles

Huge fan of just roll with it and have been listening non stop for over a year now. I’ve noticed that in a lot of campaigns Grizzly will make a song out of nowhere and every time the song is absolutely amazing. Just curious if you ever did music before JRWI or were considering doing anything with it in the future?

Sketchy

How has one or several of your characters changed in a way you didn’t expect, and how do you feel about that reflecting back now?

CitrusJune

You guys have used a lot of different TTRPGs other than D&D. Vampire the Masquerade, Call of Cthulhu, Mutants and Masterminds- are there any other systems you guys are interested in trying out?

Bryce Wilson

Any more thoughts on Suckening S2?

Gist

Have y'all given any more thought into the convergence reboot? as in if you would want to create new characters or continue with your old ones bonus (not a question): you should release the pd chess episode as a what if it would be funny trust me

thee_birdo

hey guys this one's really important

thee_birdo

please don't remind me of grizzly's tier list oh my god that pissed me off /silly

thee_birdo

grizzly probably will! hope this helps

thee_birdo

what kind of flavor is troy because he sure is giving off warm pond water and algae to me

riceballart

what are your long term goals with jrwi? did you expect to get as far as you have when you guys started?

ruby

in the rolled of blood in the bayou, you were talking about an idea of an apocalypse setting for call of cthulu (and in general), and i honestly really like that idea. would you ever consider doing something like that for a mini campaign or something? i really loved bitb and the overall vibe of that campaign, yall are great

dane koster

Why’s Runt getting the Arthur Morgan treatment? I really got handle another character getting tuberculosis

Isle Of Dead

How's the plague going?

Lord Cheesecake

What has been your favourite campaign/series to record and why?

GeneralBlep

Has there been any official talks yet about The suckening getting a season 2?

Draven Fisher

Condi and grizz, if you could make a PC in your respective campaigns (riptide for grizz and apotheosis OR judgement for condi)

Jazzatnight

Opinions on tomato soup?

Nick Rofellia

im absolutely loving judgement so far!! was the murderous mystery oneshot always meant to set the stage for a larger campaign? how many episodes is judgement going to be? do you already have an idea for what the plan for the next patreon campaign is after judgement is over?

bazyli

What was the context of the “I AM THE KING 🗣️🔥🔥🔥‼️‼️‼️” in Judgement Ep-1? I am so curious because that shit made me cackle.

Vyrion-157

whats your guys favourite hobbies outside of this. like music, art, going outside 🤮

cl0msy

Do you guys plan on making any more crossover Just Roll What Ifs? If so, what characters do two want to interact?

Tommi☆

ohhh! ive not heard about that yet, a bit sad but their preferences are important

Allyza

How do you play characters with such deep personalities, and what parts of a character are best to keep in mind while playing them? I often find characters I play to be robotic like Skyrim NPCs.

BigMeatyChonk

How can u get in character so good, and do u have tips to do so?

King_Anime

How do you sustain a long campaign? With shorter campaigns, I'm sure it's easier to keep track of what's going on where but with something like Riptide or PD, it feels like there's always so many moving pieces. How do you keep track of them all and incorporate them meaningfully into the story?

AvatarJini

Did you know you can get a little beanie ball that's a purple mouse I know mice and rats are different but I got one and named it Runt and she lives in my kitchen

Eldritch Violet

How do you guys go about making music you all seem really good at it

Zachary

Do you think we'll ever get another crossover oneshot? (Specifically because I NEED Runt and Jay to meet, they would be best friends) Also when riptide returns are you planning to have more special guests come on?

AussieShark

Are there any ways that you see your DM styles differing? What things do you admire in each other's methods of DMing/worldbuilding?

Flipflop

How did the moon beast start?

Woggle Poggle

How you fellas doing

gavin christenson

Do you guys have any tips for scheduling DnD sessions?

The Lemonade Guy

what are your tips for a new dm?

Nolan Carlsen

What do you guys do about prepping a campaign? What goes into writing the first steps of the characters / first few sessions mainly, I’m curious to know

lefishe27

What’s your favorite piece of media?(book,movie,show,game,comic,etc)

Frankenstein

What DnD class do you think you would be in real life? For bonus points, what class do you think the other jrwi hosts would be? For example, I think my terrestrial ecology field professor would be a ranger since I’ve never seen a middle aged man absolutely mob a rocky trail so quickly before (because his movement speed must not be penalized by difficult terrain in his favored terrain, the bush). Since I study aquatic invertebrate taxonomy, I think I’d be a druid (of the little guys). I’d love to summon hoards of zooplankton at people.

thehighwayman

Have either of you read any fanfiction of the jrwi campaigns? Or even knew jrwi fanfiction existed?

Andrew Donahue

As an aspiring game master, how do you create notes, and maintain fun throughout the game? Also, is there ever a chance of a city of mist mini campaign?

David Bates

who are y’all’s biggest inspiration when it comes to creating new campaigns or anything dnd related?

Sern Starr

Are there any plans (or even just thoughts) of series in the future run in ttrpgs you havent played yet? Ex. LANCER or the other world of darkenss games

TylluanFathomless

Is the team working on any kind of recap video for the return to riptide?

Roosy

Is there a campaign(that’s finished) that you wish could be continued, and see more of the world?

Konrad Cyburt

If there is a campaign that you guys could play through and make different decisions which would it would be, and what would you do?

Konrad Cyburt

If you could become any of your characters (NPC or PC), and live their life in their world, who would it be and why?

The Bass

how do yall get into character and be that involved with the story? when yall play i feel like yall are almost entirely different ppl!!! its so cool!

fishichip

In your guy’s opinion, who was the best character in all of JRWI

Deri

How do you come up with your campaign ideas

Idiot_man 17

condi i need to ask what emizels deal is. did he just come out like that like i need a psychoanalysis of him immediately, i dream to achieve the level of nihilism that emizel had seemingly effortlessly attained. and what was his arc if he had one? is emizel just a little rat bastard who gives no fucks surrounded by traumatized drama queens?

ariconditioner

i believe it’s been said in the rolled that grizzly personally didn’t have a fun time with it and didn’t want to do it again, but who knows opinions change!

ariconditioner

Is there an estimate for how many episode of Riptide are left, or is the plan for Riptide to continue as long as possible?

Viewers Like You

I know condi at least is neurodivergent, as a neurodivergent dnd player, I don’t think I can ever make a character that is NOT neurodivergent, just because they’re my character. Do you think your characters are neurodivergent also, neurodivergent JRWI hosts?

Maiziebot!

how much hawk could a hawk tuah hawk if a hawk tuah could hawk tuah?

mandsymbolm

Who have been your all time favroite npcs? IIncluding the really random / niche ones we only see in a random one episdoe

chxrls

Hello! Do you ever want or plan to DM/play another Call of Cthulu system? The Blood in the Bayou series is one of my favorites :)

Allyza

For grizzly - what is your process for intertwining key events in the Riptide world with character/NPC backstories? Do you pick events/connections for the NPCs that most suit their character, or the other way around, do NPC's inspire past events in the world? Or some nebulous 3rd option? Thank youuu, I love everything you all do sooo much and have started dm-ing thanks to this show ❣️

Koby

If gillion died in episode 98 what would you guys have done with the story?

mikeymoistmouth

You two are in my top five DMs of JRWI and I was wondering if you had any struggles starting DMing and what helped you get past them? I just started DMing for the first time on a The Vampire campaign cause of the Suckening and would love some advice.

Austin Wray

How many skeletons do you think you could take in a fist fight?

grass

How good at game

K the Lurker

What are your favorite music tracks for epic combat?

BesterJester

Do you have any pets? If so what are they and what are their names?

Kaylee

How did you guys all get into dnd?

Cherry

When you started JRWI, did you have any inkling of this level of success or that it could become a career? Were there any times the show almost stopped completely? Is Wheatie doing okay 🥲? Thanks for all the laughs from a 5+ year listener, I remember JRWI making me laugh when I struggled to feel comfortable in early highschool, now I’m finishing my junior semester in college! Shits crazy man.

JD Putt

Do you prefer comedic characters or serious ones? And for serious characters, is there a character/storyline you've really wanted to play but never got the chance. Love the show btw

t josephson

Starfish or jellyfish?

Jakqua

has there ever been a player character you haven’t been able to play for whatever reason; and if so who?

Drey ferin is bby gurl

Will Jay's portion of the next Riptide arc be a single solo session or will it be cut into the other episodes after Chips and Gillians adventures.

Not Mike

Do you have planned to bring in more guests and if so who would be your dream guest?

Loomygloom

Where should I start with plying dnd for the first time

Squig

When and are we getting The Dark Puckerd Hole as a hardcover with 220pgs of detailed grandpa s** merch drop and an extention to Apothiosis all this has to happen. But when?

BallMallet

Yooo

Shadow Cosmos314

Totally random and out of the blue but have you guys ever looked at the Lancer system before? It's a mech based ttrpg that has just the coolest style out there. Would personally recommend you can do anything from a cowboy mech with 6 revolvers to a walking fortress with a cannon on its shoulder

Finn

Anything juicy coming up on your respective YouTube channels?

randopandour

From a comedic sense, who has your favorite character to play been? And from a serious/story sense?

Trafulger Law

Are you gonna publish Finn Tidestrider's book?

CandyNerd

Are we getting a season three of prime defenders? And if so when?

Joselyn Rowe

why is jaguar joe like That. (silly)

Robin C

Which of your characters currently make you the most feral? Not in how you act when playing them but, like you want to put them in as many situations as possible. The most blorbo of your blorbos. put them in a jar and shake.

Kinny

What characters across all of JRWI history have you felt the most/least comfortable playing? P.S. Thank you for doing what you do!! JRWI has helped me through some really rough times. Much love!!!

Dastardly_D

I just really wanna know how yall met

Liz

Do you have any worries about the consistency of characterization (for NPCs or PCs) once returning to Riptide?

OLIVER VIOLET

I am about to finish listening to the riptide campaign for the second time, and so many things have come to light because I listen to the just rolled with it. Is there anything you want to tell people who don't listen to just rolled with it, any important details that they may have missed? One of mine that I learned was that the part with Gillian coming out of the luxabrus pearl, which made him again into the chosen one and there's a chance he wasn't the chosen one to begin with and I don't think a lot of people realized that.

Nathaniel Gumowskyj

genuine question ive had for nearly two years, did billy mays make it out of galloway and if so how did that happen?

Caspian Astronokia

What is your process for creating characters? How do they always feel so connected to the world and have such good characters dynamics right from the start? How much do you know about each other’s characters before the start of the campaign?

Mrtimsu

What is your favorite NPC that you have made?

Prince Ducky

How much lore of your campaigns are actually made/fleshed out and how much is made by the players? Also what is your favourite lore addition/change a player has made (if any)?

SirenSam

Will you guys have any more guest on the show. Also would you do an collaborations I. The future with other groups such a advantris?

L-or-something

What has been your favorite campaigns and npcs throughout your guys time making just roll with it

Grubby_

How excited are you fellas for Monster Hunter Wilds? How many hours do you think you'll lose to the game

Anidence

Once Emizel came back from the sun at the end of the Suckening would he look like Emizel or Shilo, or their third secret brother Emilo

I’m not reading that

Will we ever see more JRWI What Ifs? Given how many more campaigns y’all have under your belts it feels like there’s definitely potential to do more, but I totally get it if you want to focus on just the bigger campaigns.

Mar

Will you guys make more what-ifs In the future? If not, why? (They were incredibly fun to listen to.)

HollowHusk

what is your favorite character to play, and why? like, what is the most fun gimmick to play out, what is the most fun story to flesh out? also, this may be worded weird, how do you come up with the way you play your characters, and how they interact with the other characters? the stories, the voices, the gimmicks, and the personalities of all of the pcs are so interesting to me, and im really mostly interested in how the characters interact with eachother, since its probably my favorite aspect in most of the jrwi campaigns because of how well its done. this also goes for the npcs as well. TLDR: i wanna know how you guys do character interactions with specific characters :3

tidalwisp

Favorite jrwi character to play and favorite npc ever?

Ella

how'd you all meet

Bread real

How do you all find inspiration for a campaign? I was inspired by you guys to dm a campaign for my friends but I’m honestly struggling to come up with anything that feels like it would be good.

T0MB Buick

Did you ever expect Riptide (or JRWI in general) to grow this big over these 7 years? Do you have any ideas of what you did to make it get really popular?

Star-Crowned Ravings

Will there be a wanderlust season 2 please tell me yes I love them all

Sparky

What were your inspirations for your villains?( for both as DMs)

Nate Allen

Who would win homelander or the wildkratts?

Theory

For both (Content related): As DMs, how much do you tell the players about a campaign/oneshot before you start playin g? Like how much about the world, story, starting sequence, people, etc? For both (Not content related): If it's too personal, I understand yall skipping this. I'm at the point in life where my friends and I are starting to spread across the country. What is it like for you guys living really far apart? How do you maintain friendships across the distance? How do you manage time zones when spending time with each other?

RossoTheRed

How do you choose what music to use in the background? Also, Kingdom Hearts music isn’t used enough.

Matthew Coates (R3dston3madn3ss)

what are your favorite kinds of soup?

Bella

For both of you, you've previously spoken about the types of characters that you like to play on Just Rolled With It's in the past, is there a certain person on the JRWI team you would model a PC around?

Nobuko

When are we getting the swimsuit calendar cataloge of ya'll in the jrwi shop? since we all know you made one for a surprise but fellas the secret is out and we need a date 😬

Ash346

For Griz: When creating the different islands and locations in Riptide what do you do the same/differently for each one, and what were some big inspirations for the more major islands (for example, you mentioned in an episode that Dark Souls/Elden Ring was a major inspiration for Onawa Country and The Spider Lily Capital)

Tom Hogg

How long have you guys been playing dnd together?

Gavin

Do you guys get stressed out as DMs when it comes to writing plot points or do you kinda improv your way through it?

David SoulSword

Which Jrwi pc do you think you could beat in a fight (to the death)

It’s Cfr3sh

I simply want to ask do you have any more guest episodes planned in any of the campaigns? If so, can you tell us anything about them? Whether it’s who, or which campaign they will be in? (Return of Convergence???)

Grant

How do you make unique character voices, especially for when your DMs and have like a million NPCs?

Duskfall07

What ttrpg systems has been the most fun for you guys to learn/play? (DnD, Call of Cthulhu or vampire the masquerade)

Zack Constancia

SHITTT i should’ve asked if they would ever do a cyberpunk red campaign 😔

Spark Chaos

What does the future of jrwi look like, and that could pertain to anything, cast, campaign or just anything you can share

Curtis Dial

I've always wondered how each of you approach any sort of political intrique or sorta kangaroo court style plot lines and settings without revealing your hand too early

LiminalSpace

What are some non-D&D systems you guys would like to run for a campaign or one shot? (Could be based on D&D systems)

Jacob Dinkel

Some people can control the air flow through their sinuses and can stop it completely giving a more nasely inflection. At least that’s how I assume cuz I can get pretty close by doing that

Jaden

What is one character that you loved so much that you would put them in a campaign you run?

Abstrot

Who are your guys' favourite characters that you've played?

Lampyson

If you were to do any more what ifs, what cross-universe character dynamics are you most interested in exploring?

Condi you should try estrogen

Will guys do more Call of Cthulhu campaigns and happened to the what if episodes? Are you guys Interest in doing a warhammer 40k D&D Mini campaign?

KingKai

What’s your opinions on just roll with it (Disney)

Jebb

How do you start writing a campaign/world? Do you focus more on characters, events, cool moments, or some entirely different option? How much inspiration do you draw from other media, and how much do you lean in to those inspirations

Which character was the most difficult to play? Either emotionally or acting/voice skill wise.

Madison Holmes

I know that Jay and Griz had a little conversation at the end of ep 68 and 68 pt. 2 in riptide, about a possible "going to space arc". How would Grizz think about dming something like that when it's such of a change in position of a 1700's style pirate campaign too a futuristic space theme setting? Any interesting ideas to look forward too with that?

ImJustABirb

Are there any systems you haven't used in a campaign yet, but would like to?

Elora

What sort of world building process do yall do? Are you the types of DMs to just make up lore even when not planning or things that arnt relevant right now or more so you plan around things the players will see and sort of improvise if something you didn’t expect comes up! I’m just curious on how you guys go about making your worlds feel as fleshed out as they feel when we watch them! Ps: Feel better guys, hope whatever yall sick with isn’t too bad!
