Or, The One Where We Go Full Dragon Age Fancast. Listen, it's a transformation that's been happening slowly for a while now, I feel like. Maybe it's a new segment? Anyway, COMPANION'S TALE IS KICKSTARTING! Laura and I chat about her excellent new storytelling game at Dreamation 2017, among other tangents (about companions) (that you can kiss).
