Welcome back to the Detour! We’re reacting to the slow forward rumble of revealed information, we’re welcoming guest stars to the path as well as Paz & BG to the party, and we’re discussing narrative justification of game mechanics and what “coming of age” really means, to our characters and the world around them. We’ll also get a quick Party Points update, and have a collective gush about the romance between JJ & Samira.
