My headcanon is that Aurora Nebbins was only aggressive at the dog show because she was chronically understimulated. She got kidnapped by good people who actually play with her and let her do recreational violence 😌
Aurora is clearly not a show dog, at least not that kind of show. She is a tried and true hunting dog and she needed far more exercise and stimulation than she was offered by her old owner
@@MovingLightEntertainment That and 48,000 is nearly double the contract price. Unless the quest giver was low balling you, doubling the reward is probably not gonna happen 32 or not XD.
Assuming Brennan had set a DC for double the amount. Likely a 30ish DC the first failure from ally would have bumped the difficulty to like a 35 is my guess. At least that's my best guess
@Jesse Noble I'd normally agree, but I think Siobhan cast some sort of short-term memory modification spell? Regardless, I think you're right and the DC was just too high. So Brennan acknowledged the obscenely high result by having the terms change from "kill" to "remove from competition."
What i love so much about Emily having to choose between the Jib Jobbers and her new dog is that she is literally that meme of "I've only had Aurora Nebbins for 5 minutes, but if anything happened to her I would kill everyone on this ship and then myself"
i really love how this season EVERYONE was so OP and brennan responds by making the fights borderline unfair, but then in response everyone just got super creative to *not quite* cheat their way thru these impossible situations
The whole thing with ‘secretly’ rigging the psychodrone with explosives and then it happening to be particularly effective against the enemy in the fight was amazing.
I love how the whole operation slippery puppet clip was in ever after the aurora nebbins part ended, because you can never. NEVER. Leave Operation slippery puppet out of a compilation.
Raymond Zann is one of my favorite side characters. He's been around the block w/ the crew enough times that he knows the score. No real questions, just "Hot exit? Bet." xD
@@AleksandarBellMy bad. I only learned a few weeks ago that long haired Murph from Starstruck is the same as Short hair Murph from the other shows somehow XD
I've sat down and watched so many compilations that have run this long, and I've never even considered that these are movie length, and that I enjoy them more than most movies
50:35 I love Emily forgetting to specify that the turtle was dead before ripping it's leg off. Or she really has started thinking of them as just food and not living greatures XD
If I had a penny for the every time a D20 party had a terrifying pet that screeched constantly, I'd have two Pennies, witch isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice.
24:34 emily axford just sent me down a whole internet rabbit hole that has completely altered my perspective on horse back riding because apparently this is real
@@Matkingos Almost actually. But minus the pleasure putty, because apparently female-bodied individuals don't need that when riding a horse. Also I have since confirmed this with a friend of mine who rides horseback. I guess there's a reason that horseback riding has historically been disproportionately popular with women.
theres just something about this comp that gives me comfort this season is my fave and it puts me right to sleep like a lullaby. nevermind that brennan does the most horrifying monster noises ever as aurora nebbins
Three months after my initial comment, I just want to say... I watch - or listen to, as I go to sleep - this video almost every day. The editing on this is fantastic. Thank you.
Jeffrey Lee Pierce was a genius (his solo record wildweed kicks much ass) and The Gun Club was one of the coolest damn rock and roll bands ever. Seriously, right up there with The Cramps, Mink Deville, and The New York Dolls. So good!
@@dlvnmedia Blasphemy! The Blasters are great too though, soo good live man.👍Kind of a weird choice maybe but I listen to them a ton when I'm out hiking.
I'm listening to this, translating some Latin texts for a friend, so I'm locked into that mindset. I preface this with a declaration of undying love for each person at that table. However, the way they keep mispronouncing princeps, "prinn-septs" when I just KNOW BRENNAN KNOWS BETTER is CARVING A HOLE IN MY BRAIN lmao😂😂 "Preen-kepss" with emphasis on the first syllable, like you're kinda pretending you're Italian lol, in case anyone was wondering. Check into Latin, guys. It's actually crazy easy, and you'd have fun! Or at least feel like a badass 😅
I mean maybe Brennen doesn't know better? for me as a native english speaker it makes sense to pronounce it the same why I would pronounce prince it's like 'Caesar' to me, the way english speakers say it is largely wrong, but what's more useful, being correct or actually being able to communicate without needing to explain yourself?
Also nobody's commenting on it but I love the subtle bit where Hyacinth, the standoffish and neutral voiced employer for the job was just as shocked as everyone else when Aurora bit off Mylors head
The one thing that's missing here is when she asks, "does the name Aurora Nebbins ring a bell?" And Zac immediately says "no." Cracks me up every time. For those with dropout it's at 1 hour 51 minutes, ep 3 (rec 97). I admit there might be something wrong with me.
the season was almost 42h long. even discluding episodes before auroa nebbins, it's still almost 33h. this is well under 5% of the season and more convenient than multiple videos (ex. auroa nebbins pt.1, pt.2, etc)
My headcanon is that Aurora Nebbins was only aggressive at the dog show because she was chronically understimulated. She got kidnapped by good people who actually play with her and let her do recreational violence 😌
Yep this beautiful royal blue mastiff just needed some interaction and love

@dionysus_demands: don’t we all…
it's actually so fuckin insane em rolled nat 20s on handling aurora nebbins so many times she just became a crew member outright
the way everyone calls Aurora beautiful constantly was one of my favorite running gags of the season
I choose to believe that Aurora is NOT an alien, but an actual breed of Earth dog that has been inbred for centuries.
or thats how these aliens see Earth dogs
the fact Siobhan rolled a 32 persuasion for the 48000 credits and she still said no 😂
Hyacinth is Old Money, she knows how to talk her way out of a haggle
@@MovingLightEntertainment That and 48,000 is nearly double the contract price. Unless the quest giver was low balling you, doubling the reward is probably not gonna happen 32 or not XD.
Well the woman originally wanted them to KILL Aurora and she let them take her for ransom instead to get that 48000

Murph's hair was so glorious for this one. Farrah Fawcett would be jealous.
the flowing locks shall always be missed...
Ally's hair is also cute af in this episode in particular. But yeah Murph embracing long-hair-himbo was one of my favorite things about this season!
You saying Farrah Fawcett immediately made me so tempted to put curlers in that hair just to see how floofy it could get the potential is insane!

right!! he’s so chill about it I love Raymond he’s a real one
I love Murph's commitment to make sure his wife's pet dog is kept safe! Couples goals 😂😂
Sundry Sydney and Barry 6 are my favorite two characters from the season. Their interactions are gold. “Androids and steroids!”
Wrong Murph
@@GamerGrovyle huh?
@@AleksandarBellMy bad. I only learned a few weeks ago that long haired Murph from Starstruck is the same as Short hair Murph from the other shows somehow XD
@@GamerGrovyleoh my god this is such a silly mistake that’s so funny
Why does Ally always absolutely launch their dice into the dice tray 😂 Like they have personal beef with their tray
Cause that's how you do
Like they are ripping a beyblade
you gotta show em who's boss
They rolled some clutch nat 20s with that method.
You can't argue with their results!
"Eat a turtle if you can [breathe in space]"
Brennan aka Aurora Nebbins: Contemplatory half bites.
I want to make a comp of them saying "what a beautiful dog, just a BEAUTIFUL dog, a beautiful royal blue mastiff"
50:52 I only just got that the turtle test that androids take is the guy mishearing Turing Test
It's a reference to Blade Runner
Aly saying the jib jobbers all take out kindles and start reading 'The Body Keeps The Score' is the funniest joke I've ever heard
I just watched the whole Aurora Nebbins movie in one sitting. That's not how I expected the day to go, but I'm here for it.
I've sat down and watched so many compilations that have run this long, and I've never even considered that these are movie length, and that I enjoy them more than most movies
@@PerpetuallyDaydreaming same. My mind just got blown

i cant believe theres almost 90 minutes of aurora nebbins in starstruck thank you sm for making this
50:35 I love Emily forgetting to specify that the turtle was dead before ripping it's leg off. Or she really has started thinking of them as just food and not living greatures XD
Such a beautiful dog.
[Murph voice] we all agree the dog is beautiful
@@MovingLightEntertainment [Zac voice] Is it?
I love that Barry's first instinct to any form of complex thought even hinting at troubling him is to immediately punch it in the face
Not gonna lie the "Where's Barry??" was such a great plot twist, got me out of my seat
the running gag of Sidney constantly tearing legs off of live turtles is equal parts nauseating and hilarious
Date: "so like what's your favorite movie?"
Me: "Dimension 20: A Starstruck Odyssey but it's just Aurora Nebbins"
I feel like Brennan is saying a lot about dog breeders and dog shows here.
Totally checks out ngl
18:46 Murph's face here is perfect to me for some reason, so goddamn funny
The transition from confusion to realizaton to anger is what gets me
gimme that
@@Wretchrot Barry's train of thought:
"Backwards? ...Backwards.... BACKWARDS! *BARRYYYY!!!"*
Plot twist
Literally my favourite moment in Starstruck. I replayed that over and over.
If I had a penny for the every time a D20 party had a terrifying pet that screeched constantly, I'd have two Pennies, witch isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice.
The other one is jerihmah (I’m dislexic that spelling was never gonna be right)
But the thing is those are some really cute dogs so it’s a shame that it only happened twice
maybe even 3 if you count cinnamon from ACOC.
What about baby from sophomore year
53:32 the facepalm by Murph is just so, "yes, this is what my life is like."
I'm so happy that theres a compilation for that beautiful royal blue mastiff.
16:04 The cut between Ally's pogchamp and Zac laughing, just mouth agape, is too good.
Androids taking the "turtle test" is a hilarious reference Brennan really is a genius
Just a great chaotic scene stealing that beautiful dog, made so much better by Siobhan wearing a Moonstone Jamboree shirt.
Murph was comedy king here "when i break your fucking nose" at 13:03 is just amazing 😂
Emphasis on the *royal* blue mastiff
Truly, the most beautiful dog
Aurora Nebbins and Je're'mih would get along so well
24:34 emily axford just sent me down a whole internet rabbit hole that has completely altered my perspective on horse back riding because apparently this is real
What are you referring too? Riding a horse and becoming covered in pleasure putty?
@@Matkingos Almost actually. But minus the pleasure putty, because apparently female-bodied individuals don't need that when riding a horse.
Also I have since confirmed this with a friend of mine who rides horseback. I guess there's a reason that horseback riding has historically been disproportionately popular with women.
idk anything about dimension 20 but this is SO CUTE. i love aurora nebbins she's such a good girl
Zac's face at 16:07 is just perfect
For some reason I expected less than an hour, so that was a fun surprise.
I just realized that Murph's hair generally fits his character lol. I can't see him playing Gerard with long hair.
Hurray for little Aurora!
Murph calling himself the angel of death because of how he mercy kills terapins when the get mutilated is hilarious to me.
22:33 I love Zac Oyama so fucking much. This and the fucking weird shit eating smile is my favorite thing ever
Audible smile
this campaign had maybe the best moments of chaos in d20 😅
what an excellent video. the person who clipped this must be really cute and funny and hot and have a great smile
this random commenter who i for sure don't know sounds just as hot... we should kiss about it
34:10 sydney bonds with aurora nebbins and Brennan lets her keep it as a pet
Siobhan with darker hair is such a fucking look
42:25 this is 100% my favorite aurora nebbins moment
I just love this weird ass dog they adopted and feed turtles to.
For aurora, anyone else mentally picture the bone vampire from Futurama? Almost feels like the inspiration for it to me
Exactly, yeah. One of my favourite episodes of Futurama
That design for SURE is inspired by the bone vampire
that was my first thought too, Mr. Peppy and Aurora Nebbins are definitely cousins lol
37:43
56:07
1:00:01
1:07:09 Em’s face plus what she says is just *chef’s kiss*
Emily Axford is a legend, best tabletopper I've ever seen
why do we all ignore that emily tried to pull a sexy rat 2.0 by making a hologram of a hot blue mastiff?
1:04:43 So off-topic but Brennan's sound effect for the detonator scratches a certain place in my brain just the right way
It's the Jerma teacher noise!!! I knew I heard it before somewhere and this comment finally made it clikc
theres just something about this comp that gives me comfort this season is my fave and it puts me right to sleep like a lullaby. nevermind that brennan does the most horrifying monster noises ever as aurora nebbins
Thank you for taking the time to make this. Really enjoyed it.
probably my favorite season that's not a Fantasy High season. Odyssey kicked so much ass.
aurora nebbings: the goodest girl
This has become my comfort watch video.
Three months after my initial comment, I just want to say... I watch - or listen to, as I go to sleep - this video almost every day. The editing on this is fantastic. Thank you.
She's such a good girl, lover her!
This is the most important video on UA-cam
I fell asleep to this last night
But like
In the best way possible
at the beginning of this I wasn't expecting to like her but now I understand
I can’t wait for season 2!
Look at you, doing the Lord's work, bless you ^^
I love that Emily is a fan of the Gun Club. Hell yeah that’s awesome

thank you for including the totality of operation slippery puppet o7
Beautiful Dog!
The Wilhelm scream!
I love the weird, tongue-tied voice that Skip used in these early episodes
"Check it out, that's a dog"
Shame they never used the sentry turrets on Aurora. Just have forgotten about them.
you are doing gods work
What a beautiful dog show
emily just really wanted everyone to know that sydney was drunk

ooh, keeping me honest!! nice catch
Im just gonna say it. BETTER THAN TRINKET!
It feels illegal to be watching this much paid D20 content
Starstruck except its every orgasm joke? (theres a lot of them for some reason)
Aurora Nebbins is basically a female Mr. Pepe from _Futurama._ If you know, you know.
No one is going to like me for this, but a 9 and a 6 aren't mirror images, but mirror images, flipped.
I really don't like the 3d effects.
Ok, short clips are ok but entire hour and a half segments is a bit much!
