Juliamon: ah, I should go heat up dinner
Thefluffiestguineapig: I agree kittens are good, what kittens specifically
Thefluffiestguineapig: Is it the new KA bumper car stage kittens?
Juliamon: just in general but also help Haiku is perfect baby
Juliamon: little otter-koala face
Thefluffiestguineapig: Haiku is currently perfect baby and will end up being hell on paws is my prediction (said with absolute adoration, my 2 12-year-old bonded sisters are still hell on paws)
Thefluffiestguineapig: Seeing Scribble drag them over hells half acre now they are trying to go on adventures is also very good
Thefluffiestguineapig: Just mama saying "NO, you will go where I SAY DAMMNIT"
Juliamon: she's doing her best
Juliamon: and hopefully keeping that rug relatively poop-free
Thefluffiestguineapig: Given how honest Mr. A has been about previous issues with sanitation, I assume it has been relatively smooth sailing
TheAinMAP: Title change.
TheAinMAP: Signal
Juliamon: oh, actually got a blink!
Juliamon: lrrSIG
Juliamon: time to be French
BraveOthello: Hell yeah, it's Light Dark time!
Thefluffiestguineapig: Heather needing to transition back from Silksong controls to this might be a little bit of a handbrake turn for a minute
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Juliamon Except when sometimes I think Ian makes characters sailors?
TheAinMAP: Me too. I'd say maybe Twitch fixed something, but an actual fix would have the stream go live without the need to refresh.
Juliamon: also I see what you did there, tweet-composer
Thefluffiestguineapig: @TheAinMAP Yeah, my guess is *shrug emoji* and it will break when a seagull farts
Thefluffiestguineapig: !toot
LRRbot: Bhutsecks Honda!
Thefluffiestguineapig: Uuuuuhhhh, Did I forget the command for checking the Bluesky?
Juliamon: it's on a different bot
Juliamon: DideRobot uses ~
Thefluffiestguineapig: Ah, thanks
Thefluffiestguineapig: ~toot
Juliamon: ~lasttoot
DideRobot: LRR: It's time for Rhythm Cafe, so let's bash our heads against Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 https://twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun (has image) | 4 minutes ago | https://kind.social/@LoadingReadyRun/115165503752240486
BraveOthello: Maybe a dumb question, which is it not on LRRbot?
Thefluffiestguineapig: GODDAMNIT
Thefluffiestguineapig: My brain is melting
DideRobot: LRR: It's time for Rhythm Cafe, so let's bash our heads against Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 https://twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun (has image) | https://kind.social/@LoadingReadyRun/115165503752240486
Juliamon: Someone else coded a tweetbot before LRRbot's owners did, so why waste time reinventing it?
BraveOthello: Just steal the code /hj
BraveOthello: (yes I realize it is not that simple technically or ethically)
Juliamon: Also, having different bots do different things means you don't lose ALL your commands when one of them breaks
Thefluffiestguineapig: And many of LRRbots commands are very specialized
BraveOthello: Silky
mercano82: gelatinous
adept_nekomancer: Regular
southern_woodsman: Extra crunchy
Thefluffiestguineapig: The moment where Ian checks his watch is so good lrrLUL
Juliamon: (it is not illegal, companies, please sponsor LRR)
paronomasiac042: carl abscond?!
BraveOthello: Name on the hat, rabbit out
BraveOthello: *in
Juliamon: random, but weighted
Thefluffiestguineapig: Heather and Beej would have lots of hours
mercano82: just a phone booth full money, but it’s all Canadian singles.
Thefluffiestguineapig: Is my understanding
BraveOthello: So Coriander beats Ian
Thefluffiestguineapig: Does Cori have to use Cori?
Dog_of_Myth: Thick Ian
Juliamon: !addquote (Ian) [now] What if I just made my name thicker?
LRRbot: New quote #9392: "What if I just made my name thicker?" —Ian [2025-09-07]
IbunWest: More Ms and fewer Is
BraveOthello: W I D E I A N
Thefluffiestguineapig: Or 3D printed?
Juliamon: what if you use your full fediverse handle
mercano82: { font-weight: 1000 }
Thefluffiestguineapig: Certain kinds of flypaper are toxic I believe
wedge_x: ahh, yes, the Thickians. a noble people.
LordZarano: 𝗜𝗮𝗻
Dog_of_Myth: Use some Gothic font for sure
Thefluffiestguineapig: You all do work with Graham Stark and Cameron Lauder
SaxPython: Ink Rollin' Deep
adept_nekomancer: Offset printing: great. Offset kerning: please do not.
LordZarano: @Dog_of_Myth 𝕴𝖆𝖓?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @adept_nekomancer Offset kerning: INTO THE SEA
Dog_of_Myth: @LordZarano Perfect
BraveOthello: Sleepy time but get them that add revenue
Juliamon: You do not want streamer voices intruding in your dreams. It gets weird.
Juliamon: Trust me.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Juliamon Extremely Weird
Thefluffiestguineapig: Double underlined
Dog_of_Myth: I feel that Ian.
mercano82: @juliamon Behind every warning is an interesting story
Thefluffiestguineapig: Yeeeaaaaah Agreed Ian
Thefluffiestguineapig: Can't judge mid go
Sarah_Serinde: This decade already has too much competition for worst year, 2025 is not it (for me)
Juliamon: 1999 was rough for a Very Certain Group of People
mercano82: late 2021 was OK, it was Get Out of Jail time.
Juliamon: Was SEED 02 or 03
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Sarah_Serinde 2025 is up there for me personally
KeytarCat: I think every year I was in school was as worst as the others
kusinohki: meows
Thefluffiestguineapig: 2017 was the year of hospitalization for bleeding ulcer for me, so that can just Go Away
mercano82: 1980 gets you Regan
Thefluffiestguineapig: @mercano82 If we are judging by global events 1980 is a strong competitor
mercano82: 2020 didn’t happen.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @mercano82 In many ways 2020 is still happening to all of us
Thefluffiestguineapig: Banking
Juliamon: I though chocolate was Belgium
IbunWest: How does Chocolate Time compare to EST?
mercano82: @thefluffiestguineapig One of the two.
Thefluffiestguineapig: The guy that painted that was Spanish
Thefluffiestguineapig: La Persistencia de la Memoria
ContingentCat: What else makes it a clock?
adept_nekomancer: So a clock is a container for time
mercano82: Time is an illusion. Lunch time, doubly so.
Thefluffiestguineapig: is the specific art piece is people are curious
LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
Thefluffiestguineapig: Oh I'm cackling
Shadowsoflife: time is fake and haunted
TehAmelie: oh, i thought i was late :3
Juliamon: you are late for a very good podcast
TehAmelie: obviously
wedge_x: I feel like Dali would revel in being called ‘the guy who painted that’
Phrawger: 100%ed this today at 98 hours. video games are too long and i like them a lot
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Shadowsoflife Hence the painting I referenced
Shadowsoflife: @Thefluffiestguineapig Indeed.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @wedge_x Honestly not sure about that, in many ways being dehumanized in that way is one of the things that he was trying to highlight to the public that was horrible about his experience during WWI. Trying to dredge up art history watching the art game
Phrawger: we are all love Esquie
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Phrawger Caveat: some video games are too long if they are just milking for content. I don't think this is one of them
wedge_x: @Thefluffiestguineapig it does carry the theme, tho
Kentosaurus: make my ringtone "owowow"
ZekeSFails: PARRY IT.wav
Bruceski: @Thefluffiestguineapig There's a lot of "postgame" stuff in this game, but it's definitely not filler.
Makhiel: oh yeah, auto-death + bomb is very fun
ZekeSFails: … thanks for reminding me that I need to go play infinite wreath lol
ZekeSFails: … wealth not wreath
SaxPython: CurseLit PogChamp CurseLit
kusinohki: games with random encounters like pokemon or final fantasy really should have a "you are X levels above everything in this area.... you will be left alone"
Bruceski: I know they were happy enough about the sound of Renoir's cane hitting the ground that it's available on their media page.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @ZekeSFails If you want to join some of us who watch Ian be ridiculous while playing Yakuza on most Fridays, see Tiltyhouse!
SaxPython: Wait! these benchs aren't save points?
BraveOthello: The boys are back together!
Phrawger: Monoco's battle music is SO GOOD
Bruceski: Time for techno jazz
BraveOthello: playfr3Carriedance
adept_nekomancer: Ah yes, a relaxing jazz fight
Dog_of_Myth: DinoDance DinoDance
ContingentCat: braven10HEX
Phrawger: i made such a stanky face when the sax kicked in the first time
SaxPython: SingsNote
Kentosaurus: Every song in this game feels like the best song in the game. And this one it might be true.
Thefluffiestguineapig: DinoDance DinoDance DinoDance
ZekeSFails: there are a couple songs later on where I just stopped and listened for a bit
kusinohki: fighting styles but tied to time signatures?? like 3/4 fighting. standard 4/4 fighting. weird 12/8 fighting... is there something in that idea??
BraveOthello: @Kentosaurus I'd argue it's one of the Un Vie variations, but ... This is xlose
BraveOthello: @kusinohki Sounds like something for some kind of "rhythmic game"
97 raiders from Seabats have joined!

Anubis169: hihi Adam lrrAWESOME
DaFhaye: seabatClap seabatClap seabatClap
Thefluffiestguineapig: Welcome Seachats!
Dog_of_Myth: Heya Raiders
lamina5432: seabatClap
Dog_of_Myth: Enjoy the funky jazz
Thefluffiestguineapig: Funky jazz as we try to stab a man
BraveOthello: Do it for the XP!
Thefluffiestguineapig: So close!
Thefluffiestguineapig: It's what happens when you go from Silksong where there are no parries
Bruceski: @ZekeSFails Tisser la Beaute plays for just a couple of battles in its dungeon. Not minibosses or anything, seems to be kinda arbitrary. Anyway first time I heard it I just sat there for a while because it hit all my vibes.
BraveOthello: @Thefluffiestguineapig Man-Monkey-Armature-Brush ... Thing
adept_nekomancer: Stalagmitge
adept_nekomancer: *stalagmite
Bruceski: Stalagmite and Stalactite
Thefluffiestguineapig: Momo looks kind of like a species of original trilogy Star Wars aliens
BraveOthello: Floor point rock and ceiling point rock
Thefluffiestguineapig: At least the head does
silenceaux: Double Damage is always an appealing line of text
adept_nekomancer: Pointy rock dog!
BraveOthello: I don't think I used most of them
BraveOthello: Especially because there's that one standout
Bruceski: Those abolities are strictly "take a SECOND turn", and if you're in your second turn it hasn't reset the counter,
the_tarabyte: The 3 charge abilities can be quite powerful
the_tarabyte: but yeah the early ones are pretty meh
adept_nekomancer: Ah, so this is why you should never show feet. To prevent identity theft.
Dog_of_Myth: LUL LUL
DiscordianTokkan: lol
silenceaux: Like, doesn't even have to lean on him. Just reminds him about fights.
BraveOthello: @the_tarabyte Free damage is free, but yeah once you unlock the tier 2 and 3s I don't think I ever used a 1 except because it ended a fight this turn
SaxPython: Monoco must be 7. That's every interaction with 7 yr olds
Dog_of_Myth: Monoco is great
Bruceski: I love the timing between line delivery in scenes like this. I don't know if the actors got to record together but if not they were spliced really well compared to a lot of other games.
BraveOthello: @Bruceski AFAIK it wasn't recorded together
SaxPython: Wait! Can the wheel fail? Can we have Bestial Failure?
SaxPython: or Messy Crits?
Laserbeaks_Fury: I would just start in ALlmighty and win in one turn
silenceaux: Almighty is kind of like a crit...
Bruceski: It helps that I found Monoco to be really strong midgame so I *wanted* him in the party.
Laserbeaks_Fury: Monoco is very Blue Mage coded
silenceaux: Extremely blue mage, yes.
Dog_of_Myth: LUL

NightValien28: Monoco the feet mage
TheDevil_Risen: Feet Vibes Kappa
TheDevil_Risen: also where's the beach outfits?
TheDevil_Risen: <3
Laserbeaks_Fury: Harry Goron
Thefluffiestguineapig: New info!
Laserbeaks_Fury: It's because this quest is a little over level now, so you have to remember and come back
Laserbeaks_Fury: I was gonna say Monoco is "someone who loves feet", but saying "podophile" is fairly loaded
CaptainSpam: Punching with your feet is perfectly normal. There's just no word for it. Kappa
Laserbeaks_Fury: If Monoco uses feet to create his spells, does that make him a podacaster?
Thefluffiestguineapig: I have to say Ian pausing mid intro to check he hadn't missed Regular Crispy Day was one of the single most Rhythm Cafe things I've seen in a long time. After one of the most exhausting reactions to a disclosure of neurodivergence by my clinic site I've had in a while I needed that
TheDevil_Risen: wb
Thefluffiestguineapig: @CaptainSpam I don't know what you're talking about, don't you mean kicking with your hands? lrrLUL

Anubis169: travHert
Anubis169: that sword looks vicious
Thefluffiestguineapig: The thorns on that sword do make it look particularly unfortunate to experience
Thefluffiestguineapig: Ummmmmmm
Thefluffiestguineapig: Did she just win by making a giant spear stab out of the ground?
Laserbeaks_Fury: And Maelle got *nerfed* after release
BraveOthello: Showing off will be fine
BraveOthello: It was not fine
Territan: He was offering Monoco poutine?
BraveOthello: lrrFINE
TheDevil_Risen: i mean i think you've both finished this off stream
TheDevil_Risen: but imo limit break kinda makes a lot of the synergy less important
TheDevil_Risen: also being able to perfect parry everything with practice, but still love the game :)
BraveOthello: @TheDevil_Risen On the contrary, it means stacking multipliers on the same thing goes straight to the moon
CaptainSpam: That reminds me, has LRR ever played Monaco on stream?
TheDevil_Risen: @BraveOthello hrmm didnt look at it like that
TheDevil_Risen: good point <3
Laserbeaks_Fury: these are the CHevalier I think
CaptainSpam: Welp.
Thefluffiestguineapig: Welp o7
BraveOthello: lrrFINE still
Territan: Like a poleaxed steer.
Thefluffiestguineapig: Oh dear
BraveOthello: Everything is still fine I'm sure of it
Thefluffiestguineapig: o7
BraveOthello: lrrFINE lrrFINE
Laserbeaks_Fury: I guess when people started forcing autosaves, they just let folks retry
Spades_Slicc: Who up expeditioning they 33?
BraveOthello: Wat
LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
BraveOthello: What lovely feet
Laserbeaks_Fury: Norwegian Chroma
silenceaux: Do you typically buy out every merchant you find, or are you more targeted in your purchasing?
BraveOthello: @silenceaux Never had the chroma to buy them out
Thefluffiestguineapig: Can we heal outside of combat?
Laserbeaks_Fury: not with abilities
Bruceski: Caster is blue
silenceaux: A move for each of the 4 masks is a good starting strategy. And basically mandatory, considering current foot availability
BraveOthello: @Laserbeaks_Fury But there is a party estus
Laserbeaks_Fury: Ohh, he talking about someone else
silenceaux: Lotta swords around here
Thefluffiestguineapig: Many giant glowing swords
BraveOthello: @silenceaux I never noticed the shape of the big one until now
BraveOthello: Oh right this scene
BraveOthello: I didn't have many problems with this game's story telling
BraveOthello: This scene was one of them
BraveOthello: The dramatic tension would still have worked with dramatic irony and without an obvious cliffhanger cut
silenceaux: They didn't do it again, but it was still a foolish choice.
SaxPython: SabaPing
Thefluffiestguineapig: tiltyhPLS tiltyhPLS
gsyhiap: Candied kids sounds like something straight out of a Brothers Grimm tale
e_bloc: "an even older key"
Thefluffiestguineapig: @gsyhiap Honestly sounds like it probably exists in a version of those nightmare tales
the_tarabyte: stanceless behavior
BraveOthello: Stanceless? Is that like being maidenless?
BraveOthello: @the_tarabyte Dang it, beat me to it
e_bloc: never heard of it
Laserbeaks_Fury: I think all the Unknown are in the same spot
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Laserbeaks_Fury I want to make a Pokemon joke here but my only point of reference for finding Unown in a game is Legends Arceus and that is profoundly not the case for finding all 28 of those sneaky buggers in that game
BraveOthello: I love the French cursing
gualdhar: so is Poutine just French Canadian "Shit"?
Thefluffiestguineapig: This is one of the few scene constructions I deeply dislike in this game
BraveOthello: @gualdhar No, that's poutine de merde
e_bloc: I had poutine at the Florida State Fair. any guesses on how good it was?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @e_bloc About like weather in Florida in the summer?
e_bloc: @Thefluffiestguineapig I'd rather get heat stroke than eat that again
ContingentCat: Perogi poutine is good yeah
Thefluffiestguineapig: @e_bloc As someone that has had heat related issues, you might not want that. It makes you extremely prone to having those issues again
e_bloc: @Thefluffiestguineapig fair point, I shouldn't make light of it. I did, however, actually get heat stroke on that trip. it was over 100 and I insited on playing 18 holes of minigulf. a few hours later I was in the fetal position on a hotel bed
e_bloc: insurance is weird, sometimes it works even if someone else is driving.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @e_bloc Big oof.wav I'm sorry sergePrideLove
e_bloc: @Thefluffiestguineapig I learned a valuable lesson that day
Thefluffiestguineapig: @ContingentCat What do the pirogi replace? The fries?
SaxPython: <3
ContingentCat: @Thefluffiestguineapig they were additional
Thefluffiestguineapig: Are you playing more Silksong tonight Heather?
e_bloc: oh yeah I lurked for a little bit of that silksong stream. the game looks great to me
Thefluffiestguineapig: @ContingentCat Interesting
Thefluffiestguineapig: Yeah, spoilers for what I've watched of Heather and Serge playing it: Silksong seems utterly rad
e_bloc: great, now I can't play it because I know it's good :D
the_tarabyte: @e_bloc Where would you get your complaint equity?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Sorry to ruin that surprise for you
silenceaux: I think you parried literally every attack that fight.
SaxPython: Woah
SaxPython: FBtouchdown
e_bloc: it's okay. I'm actually trying to see which comes first: gainful employment, or 2000 hours in civ 7
SaxPython: Was that 20 parries? without a miss

Thefluffiestguineapig: Thanks Heather!!
TheDevil_Risen: baiii
SaxPython: <3
Thefluffiestguineapig: Thanks chat!
Thefluffiestguineapig: Bonus podcast!
the_tarabyte: I'm watching two other people play Silksong simultaneously
ContingentCat: I want to try Silksong but I sucked so bad at Hollow Knight
TheDevil_Risen: oh my
Thefluffiestguineapig: I saw! It's been rad to have the Subathon stuff on
ContingentCat: I just love the art lol
TheDevil_Risen: i know that feeling
ContingentCat: I hope the emptying was good
Thefluffiestguineapig: That's a mood Ian
the_tarabyte: @ContingentCat I have been hesitating because the platforming looks... painful
ContingentCat: k byeee Ian
Thefluffiestguineapig: @the_tarabyte The VOD over on Heather's home channel for their first stream shows how they teach you the platforming mechanics and it seems like it might be honestly pretty tolerant
TheDevil_Risen: night!
Thefluffiestguineapig: Heather not counting down the time to leave us at all
SaxPython: Well, I can confirm my ads are done.
the_tarabyte: @Thefluffiestguineapig Fair, but I'm also /very/ bad at platforming. Got through the first game by the skin of my teeth.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @the_tarabyte The fact you got through the first game is a big deal, you know your limits
the_tarabyte: @Thefluffiestguineapig <3
