SPOILERS if you haven't watched it!!!
Wow... 1) Thor dad was awesome. 2) I don't like everyone's obsession with bees. Just saying... 3) Thais' desire to be with the cult was super interesting. I loved how it was explained and played out. 4) Kensi.... poor Kensi. I feel like he lost the most. His love for people and then to not be able to be with them... I hope he ascends soon. 5) Raven... so good. I loved it! That choice to take mini Raven, to give her a family.... and then the realization of how hard it is to be a mom. 6) I just loved Yve. She's so amazing. 7) Jason... freaking Jason. You continue to amaze me with your GM'ing. You're way of explaining things is always so clear without being overly descriptive. You also setup these situations that give the players the opportunities to have deeply emotional scenes. Well done sir.
Thank you all for being awesome and making AP's I'm always excited to watch.

Dangit, I didn't make it in time to start the thread. I wished to name it "Session 9: Demi-Götterdämmerung" All God things must come to an end. Cheers and salutations, it's been a fun listen. This last episode offered some wild twist and turns: First, the visions and offered choices after having left Valhalla - is these built into the system? I recall something similar when they had ventured into the science afterlife. Does venturing back and forth to celestial realms trigger a confrontation of fears and past(or future?) trauma? Second, it was interesting to see transcendence to godhood akin to death. It's similar to common superhero tropes of "the otherness", but using mythology as a base kind of anchors it to a much more intimate and individual concern - to ascend you must die. It's neither triumph nor defeat, it merely is. I'm kind of pumped to run the beta explicitly to push that question to the forefront. Using mythology to explore transhumanism is deliciously apt! A house-warming gift for the recently celestial is quite appropriate. How about a nice plant? I think Yves still has an eldritch abomination that could need a non-mundane garden to defile thrive in. (Hate to um-ackchyually, but the Loki-Logi connection is abandoned by contemporary scholars. I didn't want to spoil the fun until the last episode had aired in case you had any fire-related set pieces prepared - besides, if there's one thing sure about Loki, it's that we know basically nothing about him, truly the calling card of a trickster )

Loved this so much thanks for the ride sir. I am not crying it is just dusty in here.
Will try to keep myself contained within the play test.
On to new tales and adventures!

Fyi Yves in French is a guy name If you mean Adam and Eve it is written the same way in French but pronunce differently Yep, well aware. But not a reference to Adam and Eve. She's actually named after Yves Saint Laurent, the famous fashion designer, since her mom was a model and wanted a "Y" name to honor her father, Yog-Sothoth. When naming a magical half-squid demigod child, gender conventions weren't exactly high priority
