I remember tossing a sibling into a bob-omb fire in Smash saying "I was the guardian" and then let him know it was okay and didnt make them less of a dude to cry tears of joy cuz he was finally going home 🎊

The resulting explosion was totes fyre 🤙 and I like to think he wound up in a better place

Looks like the edibles hit lmao

I have no idea what you're talking about, but once in a game I set off a bomb in a cave and my brother was blocking my way out so I tried to yell 'scoot' and 'move' at the same time and ended up yelling "SCOOOOOBBB!!!" before promptly killing both of us

It really takes you on a journey; you cannot simply buy a journey

Our team sailed our project into rough waters. For some reason one team member absolutely could not understand why we needed to steer the bow of our ship into the waves. Despite every educational effort she kept insisting that we needed to take the waves broadside.

Then, one day she tried to grab hold of the helm. So, I wrapped my arms around her as tight as I could, told her we'd die together, and jumped off the fucking boat.

Sometimes you have to spread that personal contagion of faith like a tsunami. What a beautiful story 😊

You took us on an entire seperate journey by itself. Great work

Reminds me of the ending to Hercules where Hades gets thrown in the lake of souls or whatever and they're all laying hands on him as a furiously claws to escape to no avail like a literal embrace of approaching death :D
