"You're an undercover angel?!" "You got it, kid ;)" Truly made me sob, I was so moved, oh my God, it makes me cry every time I think about it. Actually, everything about the whole reunion scene makes me cry. Who am I kidding, I cry the entire time
I think this is a great example of why Brennan is a great dm. He takes a character backstory point and weaves it so emotionally through the story that everyone breaks down completely. This combined with a cast who all get into the mindset of the characters, is just perfection
I really enjoy Pok and Riz talking about Riz's sexuality where they essentially say it's alright if he hasn't had any sexual attraction yet, because like? it's kind of important to remember he's 15 or whatever now? so he can definitely be asexual but he could also just not have a fully developed libido/attraction yet! I thought I was ace as a teen but it turns out I was just a "late bloomer" and also too self-loathing lmaooo
If only Brennan was a true god. His idea of heaven is so beautiful. When my dad died we shipped him back to Kentucky to be buried next to his dad because my grandma was still alive and that is what she wanted, but we live in Las Vegas (I don't recommend it, it is incredibly expensive to have a body prepped and shipped ). Anyway when I was visiting that side of my family my aunt asked if I wanted to go visit my dad's grave, and I was like "NO!" first of all I don't believe in an afterlife and even if there was one, my dad would not be hanging out at his grave, he's haunting some strip club or watching the Washington Redskins from the 50 yard line. But the idea that Pok Gukgak has like a little heaven side setup and can sit down and listen when people come talk to him is really sweet.
I'm also very much an atheist, (or at least agnostic,) but as someone whose mother died too early, I feel what you're saying on an intense and personal level. I know she's not there in any way besides the slow breakdown into all the things she'll become, but I wish she was listening. It'd be nice to sit there on the hill and just talk.
Watching the scenes with Pok, both in hell and after their escape, I so badly wanted the ability to see the players' (especially Murph's, but also reaction shots from everyone - definitely Lou's) expressions better. I get that the format for FHSY means that there's less editing, but c'mon Dropout. You can't let Brennan drop bombs like that and not see the fallout!
god there are so many moments in fantasy high s2 that that got me ugly crying but this one was full snot n tissues, people always talk about hurdebur pixar always makes you cry fuck that, brennan lee mulligan makes you cry in a way that heals your soul
ive never not cried to these scenes. its just so sweet and beautiful (and also im ace and not many people around me get it so it was REALLy special for me)
Obviously the fact that Pok was a good man and a good husband and a good father is incredibly sweet and I almost cried real human tears in the scene where he and Riz talk about his sexuality and when he asked Riz to tell him the small things. But am I the only one who kinda wanted to see a version of reality where what Pok said in the interrogation chair and what Kalina implied about him was true? Riz spent so much time looking up to a father figure he barely remembered. He spent so much time trying to be like his dad who he barely knew. If Pok ended up being a cold hearted man who cheated on his wife and only had Riz out of obligation, it would’ve lead to an (undoubtedly devastating, but) interesting thing of Riz having to decide who he actually wants to be once his role model winds up being a terrible person.
This would be interesting for sure, but I don’t think it would align with Riz’s character arc as much. In season two Riz goes through a lot of self-discovery relating to love- dealing with his discomfort about sex and dating, figuring out how to care for himself more, and learning that platonic and familial love are just are just as strong as romantic love. Which is why it’s so great for him to have a character that tells him it’s okay to be confused about those things, and makes him feel more sure that he really does love his friends and they love him, even if it’s difficult for Riz to communicate that.
I'm not sure why the recording quality is so fuzzy, sorry. I might try to make a better version at some point
"There's a day, on the horizon, where we get to crack the same case together, and I hope that day is as far away as possible" is such a raw line
ITS HAPPENING.
I love that Brennan describes baby Riz as "a little version of you"
A mug reading "Don't talk to me before my death's avenged" would be good merch.
They have one or at least they used to
And it is
Lou's reactions are the best. He's such a big softy, and he can't handle all of this emotion. Its basically emotional torture for him lol.
Pok Gukgak never ceases to make me emotional in the best way possible.
"It's my son" just *gets* me
"You're an undercover angel?!"
"You got it, kid ;)"
Truly made me sob, I was so moved, oh my God, it makes me cry every time I think about it. Actually, everything about the whole reunion scene makes me cry. Who am I kidding, I cry the entire time
“This is Gukgak. I need an extraction.” lives in my head and gives me actual goosebumps once a month. That scene! That moment!
There's something so endearing about like, just how fucking cool Pok is to Riz, he gets so excited every time his dad does something badass
"Tell me all the least important stuff" is so beautiful
Why is Brennan so good at making me emotional whenever he plays parents
Reading this, all i could think of is the clip of his fiancé saying "Brennan wants more than anything in the world.. to be a dad" 🥺💕
@@sandapanda4975 I thought of the same thing too
I think this is a great example of why Brennan is a great dm. He takes a character backstory point and weaves it so emotionally through the story that everyone breaks down completely.

When I first saw the scene with the pit feind, my heart dropped. I'm so glad the pok loves his family.
James Bond doesn't have half the style of Pok Gukgak
James Bond doesn't have the courage to WISH he was Pok Gukgak

The little chair, coffee mug and newspaper on the other side of his grave makes me tear up every time. Brennan is the best DM.
Brennan giving me the ace affirming speech my dad never could
Riz's reaction to Kalvaxus gloating about killing his father is one of my favorites

Let none of us skip over the fact that Pok is ace affirming 😭
Pok: "Theres only 1 thing that could have made this better..."
Me: Oh no don't hit us with...
Pok: "Please give your mom all my love"
Me: o.o,
"Honestly though, maybe I haven't been"
Gods that hit hard
lou always has good reactions but his reactions to riz-gukgak-off-on-his-own roleplay in particular are so raw and real
We need a spy thriller side quest with the God Squad.
i didnt even know pok gukgak had 36 minutes of screen time
you a righting a fundamental imbalance in the universe by uploading the Pok compilation we deserve

Ally: *croaky whisper* you're killing me in this episode!
Everyone: Us too, friend, us too. 😭😭
The heavenly light transitions were a nice touch 👌
god there are so many moments in fantasy high s2 that that got me ugly crying but this one was full snot n tissues, people always talk about hurdebur pixar always makes you cry fuck that, brennan lee mulligan makes you cry in a way that heals your soul
I know me and Lou would get along, I was crying and cussing under my breath the whole time too 😂
I love this, got me crying all over again.
I've been wanting to see more of Pok ever since finishing Fantasy High months ago - I'm so glad to finally come across a video containing him.
I can’t believe Riz got to become Alex Rider.
Kids of absent fathers crying in the chat 👋
Did anyone notice in the subtitles, when speaking as the pit fiend, it states how realistic the impression is?
omg I've been looking for a pok compilation for months. Thank you so much!
Holy shit. as someone who’s father was absent my entire life this shit hit me HARD
10:05 Brennan doing his best to add to the tenseness
I love how he’s playing along but is trying so hard to get Murph to reach for his gun
It's just so fucking wholesome. I don't think I've ever seen such a good relationship as this in D&D
My dad died since watching fh season 2 first. This kills me so much more now.
ive never not cried to these scenes. its just so sweet and beautiful (and also im ace and not many people around me get it so it was REALLy special for me)
Imma cry whyyyyy
Can we acknowledge this clip is just clickbait who want a Brendad to themselves.
Crying nonstop, so beautiful
Tears. So many tears.
I’m fully crying
Pok is so fucking cool!!!!
thanks i'm crying 🥲
8:24 Are those the dice Ally gave him?!
I can't wait till junior year!
33:04 this gets me every time
I will always love Murph for making Riz canonically asexual
