DINGO: Hi, everybody!
DINGO: Today I'm doing a collaboration with the amazing D&D animation channel,
DINGO: Puffin Forest!
DINGO: Yay!
PUFFIN: Hello, I'm here.
DINGO: Yep.
DINGO: I also did a collaboration video with him on his channel
DINGO: So if you guys want to go check it out,
DINGO: I will put a link in the description.
DINGO: So anyway, some background for me contacting you was...
DINGO: Okay, so...Uhh.
First of all, like I saw your comment on my video and I was like,
"Oh, *QUACK*!"
"He saw my *QUACK*!"
And then I messaged you, and of course I messaged you and said
"Hey! ...Thanks for liking my stuff!"
"You know... showing people my video..."
"That was really exciting!"
But the funny thing is that you know, I'm writing this message to you and
I'm like, you know your stuff really made it that you know...
I felt more comfortable talking about D&D because for a while,
For me, D&D felt like...
"Oh no, I shouldn't tell anybody," because I felt like such a like a nerd.
PUFFIN: You are, I just...We are!
No, I've accepted that.
I've accepted that.
PUFFIN: I just don't want people to know, that's the problem.
I just didn't want anybody to know and then...
But watching your stuff I was like,
"Oh dude, he tells stories about D&D!"
and I'm like, okay
"I have a story..."
And that was the birth of my video,
But the funny thing about when I wrote it,
I wrote the message to you, is that I kind of haphazardly was like,
"Maybe we should collaborate!" you know.
And then I sent it to you going like...
"Ah, he'll never reply".
"He'll you know---",
PUFFIN: NO! *QUACK* no, you are always getting a reply for me!
PUFFIN: Like if you tweet to me.
Well, it was kind of like I didn't think you were gonna reply,
"Yeah, let's collab!"
I thought you were gonna be like, "Oh cool. Thanks! Bye!"
And then that would be it.
And so you replied and you're like,
PUFFIN: "Yeah lets totally collab! What do you want to do?"
And then in my mind I'm like, 
"I didn't think that far!"
PUFFIN: You know, it's like, okay sure. What do you want to do?
So it was like, I don't know. I don't know. Oh god, I didn't think this through!
Yeah, but yeah with the collab I was kind of thinking,
You know, you could tell a story and then I'll just animate it!
PUFFIN: Oh, yeah, totally. Yes. I have lots of the story...
PUFFIN: To tell!
PUFFIN: And here it is!
PUFFIN: Coming....
PUFFIN: Right down the pipe to you...
Don't force it or anything.
PUFFIN: Once again, I used to run call of Cthulhu quite a lot.
PUFFIN: It was one that people kind of liked and it's it's another like fairly brutal setting.
PUFFIN: But there are certain ways to kind of mitigate, that if the players are not interested in that.
PUFFIN: Anyway!
PUFFIN: So I was running Call of Cthulhu and
PUFFIN: I had two players
PUFFIN: One of the players had a character who was a private detective, I've talked about him,
PUFFIN: his name was Dick Tracy.
PUFFIN: Yeah, and I would always go,
PUFFIN: "Okay, it's....*sigh*."
PUFFIN: "Dick Tracy's turn."
PUFFIN: And then we had another guy who his character's name was, Justin case.
DINGO: Oh, my gosh.
PUFFIN: And I would always go,
PUFFIN: "Okay up next, just in case..."
and he would always make puns off of his things like,
JUSTIN CASE: You need to take me along,
JUSTIN CASE: Just in case.
DINGO: Everybody just goes, "UGH," everytime.
PUFFIN: Then he had a cousin called, Justin Time, and I swear to you
PUFFIN: He spent like 45 minutes on his character creation
PUFFIN: Just deciding "Do I want to be Justin Case or Justin Time?"
PUFFIN: And he was thinking about the pun combinations between the two,
PUFFIN: and he's like "Oh God, like which one?"
PUFFIN: And then I was like, "You could just make Justin Time your cousin or something.
PUFFIN: He's like, "Perfect! Yes!"
PUFFIN: Justin Case had put like max ranks into disguise
PUFFIN: Normally, he put like 90 ranks into disguise---
DINGO: Jesus!
PUFFIN: And I was like, "how are you going to use 90 ranks of disguise?
PUFFIN: and he's like, "I'll figure something out!"
PUFFIN: And it ended up he'd used the disguise like five times per game session,
PUFFIN: And then the other guy he put all of his ranks,
PUFFIN: A bunch of ranks into fast talk and persuasion so fast you're like,
Da da da da! Da duh duh, ba ba buh buh!
PUFFIN: You're just talking quickly and just kind of confusing people.
PUFFIN: So there was one time they had to go to a college
PUFFIN: And go to a girls dorm...
PUFFIN: And like they were investigating this one girl who would who was who had disappeared,
PUFFIN: And so like, "Okay, let's investigate!"
PUFFIN: So they immediately
PUFFIN: Charge in the front door,
PUFFIN: Go up the stairs past, you know, there's girls there,
PUFFIN: There's people there and they go to the room where she is,
PUFFIN: And then kick in the door!
PUFFIN: There's a loud crash, as the door fly's open and
PUFFIN: I'm like, "Okay!"
PUFFIN: "You guys are standing out where this door"
PUFFIN: "But there's like a crowd of girls just standing there because you're not supposed to be in here!"
PUFFIN: "You're like 50, you're 45. Like what are you guys doing here?
DINGO: Stranger danger!
PUFFIN: And so he's like,
DICK TRACY: "Don't worry, I can bullshit my way out of this..."
PUFFIN: And I was like,
PUFFIN: "Okay. What are you gonna do?"
PUFFIN: So he immediately starts saying off like,
DICK TRACY: "Isn't that the great thing about this country?"
DICK TRACY: "America, which we live that's lets me, you know...."
DICK TRACY: "If I'm worried about someone or I care about someone, I can just come in!"
DICK TRACY: "And breaking down the doorways of tyranny like..."
DICK TRACY"It's just our beautiful country. It's just so fabulous!"
PUFFIN: And he was just going on and on about...
PUFFIN: America and freedom and....
DINGO: With a little flag in the background.
PUFFIN: Okay, so it's it's funny, It's ironic
PUFFIN: You should say that because literally as he's doing that,
PUFFIN: Justin Case has a little flag,
PUFFIN: American flag he pulls it out and then starts going
JUSTIN CASE: *Do doo doos the American National Anthem*
DINGO: While these girls are just looking at them like
DINGO: "Get... get out..."
PUFFIN: So he's doing the singing and I was like,
PUFFIN: Okay and I roll the percentage for the girls for their...
PUFFIN: Their like idea to see if he's bull *QUACK* them
PUFFIN: And they crit fail.
DINGO: That's amazing!
PUFFIN: So I described how the girls like start putting their hands on their chest
PUFFIN: And something go into a salute.
DINGO: There's like a tear going down one of their faces like,
DINGO: "America~"
PUFFIN: Yeah tears going down
PUFFIN: He gives us whole speech and then at the end like all the girls like,
PUFFIN: *Clapping* "You go, you go!"
PUFFIN: "You just... You brave man!"
PUFFIN: And they all start clapping and so they get into the door and they start like
DICK TRACY: "Okay, let's steal everything in here that's not bolted down!"
PUFFIN: So so that was their shtick from then on.
PUFFIN: They were they were always talking about
PUFFIN: America whenever they would break into a house.
PUFFIN: And start stealing stuff.
PUFFIN: Yeah, and then the other thing is they started
PUFFIN: Having like apple pie like all the time.
PUFFIN: Like... like crying while eating apple pie and
PUFFIN: I even gave them, I said if you guys eat apple pie like I'll give you...
PUFFIN: So in Call of Cthulhu you roll percentiles and I would let them have a 1% bonus and
PUFFIN: So they have actually succeeded at roles because of the apple pie bonus
PUFFIN: Which is just a 1% like...
DICK TRACY: "Because of America and freedom we get that slight edge that allows us to triumph!"
DINGO: 'Merica!
DINGO: Yeah thanks for, you know talking to me, Puffin Forest.
PUFFIN: Yeah, thanks for having me on! Awesome. Thanks. Thanks Dingo!
DINGO: So...

DINGO: Uh, and also I guess here's my social media.
DINGO: I don't really pimp it out at all.
