You have come to the conclusion that the information presented by Brennan of his own volition would lead you to. Trust that reality is as he has presented it at your own peril.
I think he was just knows that everything will be clipped and is less comfortable with clips floating around showing him embodying submissiveness. Most people would be the same, regardless of actual preferences, because being submissive is a lot more vulnerable. If he played the sub role straight, he would partially get unwanted comments
Exactly! The best Doms are able to empathise with the sub. I don't necessarily think Doms should have to experience the pain/etc that the sub experiences, but it is vital that they understand *how* much pain/whatever they are inflicting and be in tune with the sub's reactions.
The weakness should have been 'You've noticed the dragon wants to be a good boy for you, but he's going to act like a brat, so go ahead and roll either intimidation or persuasion - I'll let you guess which he'd like more - to see if you can avoid the fight and get him to behave.'
@@calliopeshif7581 The fact Brennan had to ask, "Is that what subs do?" but he didn't have to ask that when doing the Dom DM prompt, pretty much tells us he's a dom in the bedroom without any ambiguation.

my jaw dropped in the privacy of my own kitchen i cant even imagine how erika felt experiencing that with people around and also on camera.... the embarrassment
I was kinda expecting the sub DM to go more the direction of: “Roll perception to see if you spot any trap- you want to use strength to spot traps…? That’s not- oh you’re so strong you move your body faster than the traps… that’s- … ok fine….”
sub dm: "oh yeah sorry this door is locked, you can't get through it without a key. however, you can hear the distinct jingling of metal down the hall as a guard rushes towards your now-empty cell... what do you do?" guy: "im gonna go through this door, bitch" sub dm: "yes daddy"
I pictured the dom dm doing roleplay with his partner in their bedroom. The sub dm is doing this at his friend's mom's kitchen table, and everyone around him is uncomfortable.
“A verse DM” And then Brennan proceeds to repeat the Sub DM bit, but the players are willing and in the end, the dragon turns around and says “My turn to fight with my sword now.”
If you're going to steal, steal from the best. Sure beats having to make stuff up on the fly (while your brain is desperately racing for the bits you _can't_ just quote). 🙂
Brenna maybe unsure how to be a Sub DM, but he sure knew how to be a brat. I highly recommend looking up 'brennan gets slammed down big style' clip. It was glorious to watch.
A tiny part of me wished he played the sub DM as like a substitute teacher just to mess with Sam but the duality is equally hilarious lol
Same, like "Alright gang, Matt couldn't be here today; so he asked me to fill in."
And put on a movie or something
A sub DM: Okay, as you descend to 500 meters below sea level, make a silent running check or the carrier will detect you and send out its Dragon torpedos.
YOU DONE FUCKED UP YOUR ROLL A-ARON!
Dom dm: one that's really railroad
Sub dm: one that's running a fully open world campaign
Just dead looks into the camera "K2 you get 6 spells back"
Now we need a Switch DM
PLEASE!!!!!
We had Erika doing a switch last time, so now I'd like to see her doing the dom and sub versions. For balance, of course
"You enter the dragon's lair, with its scales as sharp as the deadliest razor and its breath as hot as the sun. From a long slumber, it awakens, staring down your puny little soul. With gravel in its voice, it booms;

@@MrArk1265 I'm gonna laugh hysterically if one of them interprets them prompt this way
Erika barely survived Brennan doing the Dom and Sub prompts. I think she'd start failing Death Saves if Brennan had do a Switch DM.
looking directly at his wife and going “is that what subs do?” is CRAZY
Especially combined with how Izzy reacted to Dom DM
And then Erika… but like. That’s just visibly obvious
@purp4168yes and! He did not ask if that Is what Dom's do! Lol just tell the world!
The fact that he's so much better at the Dom DM than the Sub DM definitely tells us some things
He didn't need to ask "is that what doms do?" after the dom prompt. So, yeah.
Likely about Izzy as well
Came to say the same thing lol
I think a huge part of that is just how being a DM is inherently a position of power. Being a Dom DM makes sense but a Sub DM is a contradiction.
@@josephroberts7167 I've never played D&D, but I've played BDSM. So, it's all about perspective I guess 🤣🤣
Honestly the fact that the sub DM is in denial about sneaking his kinks into the game is banana levels of realistic.

@@macklinillustration It feels like intentional crime on Erika tbh

Oh no..😂 does that mean Sam is a sub? (That eerily makes sense... Elaine probably tops him like a bdsm dommy mommy)

brat dm
brennan clearly has a LOT more experience playing a dom than a sub.
He definitely wants you to think that
Or maybe he’s trying to throw us off the scent
Misfits and Magic would beg to differ

@@GarnetHeartIllustrations lol
All 3 other people on the stage responded yes to "is that what subs do?", Brennan is the Dom in every room he enters
Truly! Especially if that room contains Grant O Brien
To be fair I've never known a DM who doesn't have those vibes.
@@catika505 My current DM flips between that and the opposite honestly
There's a game changer episode where Brennan says he got cuckholded, so clearly not every room
I love how the player absolutely botches their rolls with the dom DM and nails their roll with the sub DM
1:18 THAT IS A SMAUG MONOLOGUE REFERENCE
'My teeth are swords, my claws are spears, my wings ARE A HURRICANE.'
FINALLY someone else noticed it!
I love how Sam whips his head around like a small child who just saw his best friend confess to someone 💀
The question cards covering his mouth as he is dying of second hand embarrassment 🤒🤒
Next season we need "A Switch DM"
What I would like to see is Erika doing the dom witch and sub witch, too
❤ur profile pic
Surely that just plays like whichever of the other two roles he's taking on at that particular time
my jaw dropped in the privacy of my own kitchen i cant even imagine how erika felt experiencing that with people around and also on camera.... the embarrassment
I'm sure she wasn't the only one in the room
Brennan may not be as good at playing sub, but those 2:06 finger drumming felt authentically sub
as a sub that is so real
I’m learning things about myself that I didn’t know before…
Real
………god dammit
Really? It felt very dom to me. Like an underlying threat and amusement behind it. 😅
1:46 The eye roll made my soul leave my body 💀
1:13 "My feed will never recover"
Cute pfp. I like the little pixel people infront of the flags :3
Your pfp really is the best :)
the little eyeroll when he says "*big* greatswords" is absolutely destroying me
I love how Erika's reactions to both versions is pretty much the same lol
The dom dm was spot on. The sub dm would mainly be looking for validation from the table
"is that what subs do?" I think it's accurate, yeah.
Love the bratty dragon.
"Is that what subs do?'' LMAOOOOO
I was kinda expecting the sub DM to go more the direction of:
“Roll perception to see if you spot any trap- you want to use strength to spot traps…? That’s not- oh you’re so strong you move your body faster than the traps… that’s- … ok fine….”
erika “fugue state” ishii is a mood
Erika kept getting psychic damages from both sessions. 😂
Finally the YIN and the YANG
0:44 i totally missed that dm was supposed to be dungeon Master & not just a direct message
The joke is that most people would...but Brennan is famously a dungeon master.
Could also be the renowned German chain called dm (stands for "drogerie markt)
Iz just starring at him like “this is the man I married 😌”
I need a player that reacts to me the way Erika reacts to bedroom-y Brennan.
fugue state?
“So you try to get on your knees…” I failed getting on my knees??? 😂
You're at 2 HP and 3 levels of exhaustion, things are a little rough right now...
@@silvercoronetgonna need a lot of aftercare after that session!
@ Lay on hands is pretty useful for that
Wait til you're older...
1:27 I just realized that both Izzy and Erika have their eyes closed picturing the scene he's creating!
love that Dom comes naturally to him but he doesn't know what to do for sub at all 🤔
Izzy's entire posture just screams "yeah, show me what you got, maybe I like it"
I heard “get on your knees” and instantly found myself on the floor. He did that too well…
My knees got so weak I was not expecting that at all!
I was imagining sub DM as a DM enjoying the players destroying all the carefully laid plans, but maybe that's just a masochistic DM
sub dm: "oh yeah sorry this door is locked, you can't get through it without a key. however, you can hear the distinct jingling of metal down the hall as a guard rushes towards your now-empty cell... what do you do?"
guy: "im gonna go through this door, bitch"
sub dm: "yes daddy"
i think the jumps from being turned on and dying of laughter is what gave erika whiplash xd
I love how both times the crew didn't even try to lock it in
(Sam laughing harder) is the best subtitle.
Erika's reactions really add to the clips.
“My feed will never recover”💀 the way she said it too🤣
That dragon noise THOUGH.
Right!? That was a good dragon snarl lol
X rated d&d is clearly what Brennan was put on this earth for
Almost roll on the floor on the Dom DM and then LITERALLY rolling on the floor on the Sub DM 😭
Interesting how he only had to ask if that’s what SUBS do
I am surprised how many people are just assuming that that was a genuine question lmao
I pictured the dom dm doing roleplay with his partner in their bedroom. The sub dm is doing this at his friend's mom's kitchen table, and everyone around him is uncomfortable.
2:07 The dragon has SO MUCH weaknesses~
It was Erika does that kills me more than Brennan. That "Oh no, this does it for me." reaction.
I came looking for this & was not disappointed 🙏
The sequel was put together just to do more psychic damage to Erika Ishi
Erika having a full on out of body experience is just the best.
His wife off to his right lightly grinning like "it's like this all the time at our house"
Erika fighting for her life during Brennan’s monologues is the cherry on top.
The cuts to erika doubled over off to the side really elavates this 😂
The way my knees wobbled and all my breathe got knocked out of me at that first "get on your knee"
“A verse DM”
And then Brennan proceeds to repeat the Sub DM bit, but the players are willing and in the end, the dragon turns around and says “My turn to fight with my sword now.”
1:22 HEYYY THAT'S TOLKIEN
If you're going to steal, steal from the best. Sure beats having to make stuff up on the fly (while your brain is desperately racing for the bits you _can't_ just quote). 🙂
Erika felt something and they know it.
The Sub DM is just that SPH slay the dragon game where you have to get bigger and bigger swords.
Honestly saw the title and went “okay, I’ll bite”
Bard, on the last part: Joke's on you, that was my plan all along!
1:32 tickled parts of me i didn't know existed
We can all agree this was a dom playing the temporary role of a sub, and most definitely not a switch 😂😂😂
1:57 the absolute double poggers
The build up with the Sub DM, to juxtapose the dragon was perfect!!
the dom dm awakened something in me
poor Erika was absolutely coming apart for the first one.
"Is that what subs do?" certified Brennna statement.
0:42 I love how he pantomimes rolling damage dice 😂
1:47 The way he emphasizes the word 'big' here always makes me laugh no matter how many times I see this
1:17 - He started quoting Lord of the Rings and I was gone😂😂
I just love that you can hear the crew losing it in the background XD
"is that what subs do?" BRENNAN.
I thought this was about music theory and chords from the thumbnail.
I watched the furry version of this on youtube...I must say that both of them are equally chaotic.
Erika out here fighting for their damned LIFE! 💀😂
Izzy saying “my feed will never recover” 😂😂😂
Erika is such a gremlin. Love them.
1:46 I might never psychologically recover after hearing the delivery of that sentence
I learned somethings today about Brennan, but mostly about myself.
1:32 might be my favourite noise out of all Make Some Noise noises
i absolutely love how erika braces for impact the second the prompt for sub dm comes up
Brennan RP with himself was amazing. Forgot he was the only one.
Brennan wouldn't know what a sub is because both Izzy and Brennan are the doms in their relationship 😂
he even looks more dom in the first clip
The Dom DM has an animatic. If Sub also has one, I need to find it.
i didn't know about the dom animatic, thank you for that information
Deepblueink has both
@@geoffreyhalperin438 I found it after this one. They're both hilarious!
Erika was dying as soon as the sub DM prompt showed up.
