00:00If you want to stay here, do it without me!
00:04Why I can't live like this!
00:06Like what? A dwarf planet?
00:09Because, tough luck, that's what you are.
00:12That's what we all are.
00:14And everyone except for you is totally fine with that.
00:18Dang it! How do I get out of this dumb belt?
00:24I just gotta follow the sun.
00:30What was that? Have I been here before?
00:45Pluto! Pluto, where are you?
00:49I know you're here, Pluto. I can feel your gravity.
00:53Oh, hi, Sharon. Listen.
00:55Why did you run off like that? You didn't even take me with you.
00:59I just needed to get away, okay? I wouldn't have left you behind or anything. I just...
01:03Really felt like it, though. Wouldn't be the first time.
01:07You forgot about me for a long time before you went on your dwarf planet quest.
01:12I didn't forget you. I just...
01:15I had a lot going on with the whole planet status thing.
01:19Yeah, that seems like all you care about.
01:22Everyone abandoned me because of it! You don't know what that feels like!
01:26Yes, I do.
01:44Wait! Sharon!
01:45Pluto, I don't want to talk to you right now.
01:48But we...
01:49We what?
01:50Have we been here before?
01:52Well, we probably came from here just like the other dwarf planets.
01:57Maybe we're made of...
01:58Kuiper asteroids.
02:00I don't think that's how planets or moons are made.
02:03I keep telling you that we're not really like a planet and moon.
02:06We're special.
02:08Special?
02:09Huh.
02:09I used to feel special.
02:12I used to be part of a special group.
02:14But when the Earthlings demoted me from the Planet Club, everyone just didn't know how to treat me.
02:21I was this...
02:22This weird thing to them.
02:24Is their approval that important to you?
02:26We were friends for billions of years.
02:29What do you think?
02:30I'm sorry, Pluto.
02:32Yeah.
02:33Me too.
02:34Me three!
02:34Hey, have you heard about our good friend Patreon?
02:39Bop, bop, bop, don't skip just yet.
02:41Just hear me out.
02:42Our team has made a challenging decision.
02:45We want to post longer videos more often.
02:48We want content that you enjoy.
02:50Not stuff the algorithm tells us you want.
02:52Otherwise, our channel would look something like this.
02:54I've sent all my humans into space.
02:57And the first to colonize a planet wins up a zillion dollars.
03:00Okay, that's actually pretty cool.
03:02But you get the point.
03:03By supporting our Patreon, you'll help us to make three long videos every month, plus all the amazing rewards we have for you.
03:10But Narrator Guy, I don't know what those rewards are.
03:15Well, how about early content?
03:17This video has been on Patreon for some time now.
03:20Behind the scenes, deleted scenes, your name in the credits, tutorials by the creators on how to make an animated show,
03:26and an exclusive look at the development of the Astro Dude movie.
03:30And can you tell me the tiers, Narrator Guy?
03:33Of course!
03:34Comet, moon, planet, and star.
03:36Each with their own unique rewards so everyone can join our mission.
03:39Any support is always welcome.
03:41However, keep in mind that the higher tiers have a limited number of people that can join.
03:46So if you're interested, you better be quick.
03:49Thanks to all the Patreons that already support us.
03:53And to the new ones, welcome to the team.
03:55All right, back to the video!
03:58Neptune?
03:59Oh, yeah, you're right!
04:02I am Neptune!
04:03What are you doing here?
04:05Well, I was looking for my moons, but then I found them, so I guess I'm just existing now.
04:12Great for you.
04:15Listen, Neptune, I kind of have my own thing going on right now, so would you mind if I...
04:19Loud and clear!
04:20Bye-bye!
04:23What is happening?
04:24Woo!
04:25Woo!
04:25This is some intense gravity.
04:28I guess that's a real planet for you.
04:30That is so typical!
04:32Dwarf planet wasn't enough.
04:33I have to be a moon now?
04:35Hey!
04:35Sorry, that was uncalled for.
04:38But listen, we kind of both pull at each other, right?
04:41Maybe we can slingshot our way out.
04:43Ooh, let's try it.
04:48Woo-hoo!
04:50See, we do spin around each other.
04:53Yeah, I guess.
04:55Ha-ha!
04:56No!
04:57Didn't realize I did that this time.
04:59Sorry!
05:00Y-you!
05:10It was you!
05:12You pulled us out past your orbit!
05:14Your gravity must be so strong that it impacts Kuiper Belt objects!
05:18Oh, yeah!
05:19I tend to do that.
05:21Heh!
05:21You remind me of my moon, Triton.
05:23Only he became my moon and you did your own thing.
05:27So, all this time I came out of the Kuiper Belt just like the other dwarf planets.
05:32Pluto.
05:32They were all right all along.
05:36I'm really just like them.
05:37I wasn't special.
05:38I wasn't a planet.
05:40I never really belonged.
05:42You two are so cool.
05:44What do you mean?
05:45We're just-
05:46I've never seen a double planet before.
05:48The way you did that orbit slingshot thingy and escaped my orbit?
05:52Ha!
05:52So cool!
05:54But-
05:54But listen, there are a hundred things about me that make me special, and the least of
06:00them is that I am a planet.
06:02That's just some overrated earthling term.
06:03But the others-
06:04The others will get used to it the moment they see you happy.
06:08Or not.
06:09Who cares, right?
06:10Sharon, do you think less of me because I'm not a planet?
06:15I don't care.
06:17You don't?
06:18Then what am I to you?
06:20We've been orbiting around each other for billions of years.
06:24I don't care if you're my planet or if I'm your moon.
06:28For me, you'll always be my dance partner.
06:31Do you think this will be good enough for the other dwarf planets?
06:34Pluto, for the last time!
06:36Nobody cares!
06:38Only you.
06:40Just let it go.
06:45So?
06:46What do you think, Mr. Pluto?
06:48I think I got a game to finish.
06:50See you, Neptune!
06:52Thank you, Neptune.
06:53I think you helped.
06:55I sure hope so.
06:57You're a pretty cool moon, you know that?
06:59You really think so?
07:00Yeah!
07:01I mean, all the other moons joined that war on the planet, but you help your body when
07:05he names you.
07:06It warms my core.
07:08Aw, shucks.
07:09I'm glad you-
07:10Wait, what?
07:1218!
07:13That beats your armor class, right?
07:14Uh, yeah.
07:17No need to roll damage.
07:18I was at one life.
07:20I'm down.
07:21What?
07:22Already?
07:22I-
07:23I'm a wizard.
07:24I go down to a stiff breeze, and this is the final boss!
07:29So, Lady Arisa, what's it gonna be?
07:32You're up!
07:32Lord Solar Ball looks down at you, the last member of your party, and laughs a sinister
07:37laugh!
07:38Ha ha ha ha!
07:39You really thought you could beat me?
07:42I'm the sun, you're not even a planet!
07:45Well, who cares if she's a planet?
07:48Well, if it isn't the planet lover-
07:50Guys, I know I suck, and that I create barriers because I'm so insecure, but I wanna try to
07:57be happy just being... me.
08:00Well, I don't know if it'll be good enough, but-
08:02Okay, that's way too many words for a free action.
08:04If you keep talking, that's all you'll get to do in your turn!
08:06I-
08:07What?
08:08Well, aren't you gonna save your party, Sir Pluton?
08:11Well, as a paladin, I have healing magic, right?
08:14Oh-ho, you absolutely do!
08:17Okay, then.
08:18Oh, wait, I'm sorry.
08:19It was your turn, right?
08:20It was, but I'll delay it.
08:24Thanks for asking, though.
08:25Alright.
08:26Uh, healing magic activate!
08:31No!
08:32How is this possible?
08:33I thought you were gone for good!
08:35Oh-ho, no.
08:37Just had a little crisis of faith.
08:39But I remembered something important.
08:41If we dwarf planets stick together, we can do anything!
08:48Love the speech, Sir Pluton,
08:49but I think we need a new plan.
08:52I-
08:52I think I got one!
08:54Keep him off me and I can deal with this!
08:56You sure?
08:57You went down really fast last time.
09:00Don't worry!
09:01Do whatever you got.
09:02I trust you.
09:03I can't hold them off much longer!
09:12Your turn, Halmeya!
09:14Alright, here goes nothing!
09:16Phyllis!
09:17Uh...
09:18TRANSFORMAAAAAAA!
09:21Wait, what did you just do?
09:23I have an elemental transformation spell!
09:26I transformed all the hydrogen inside Lord Solar Ball into iron!
09:30Massive amounts of iron can poison a star,
09:32especially if there isn't enough hydrogen and helium to counteract it!
09:36And what happens to a poisoned star?
09:39It goes supernova!
09:41Yeah!
09:42Oh!
09:44Oh no!
09:50Everybody run!
09:56Well, guess we're not getting paid for this one.
09:59Is it weird that I don't care?
10:03No, it's not.
10:04That's not weird at all.
10:08Oh, that was awesome!
10:10You got more?
10:11I want to keep this campaign going!
10:13Oh-ho!
10:13I have enough for years!
10:15I've been waiting for someone to play this game with for so long!
10:18Alright!
10:19What's next, then?
10:20Pluto, I think we have something more important to do.
10:24Sharon?
10:25Sharon?
10:25What do you mean?
10:27It's the moons of the solar system.
10:29Something bad is about to happen.
10:32It's the moons of the moon!
10:37Episode 68
10:38This is a form of coal,
10:41Oh, no!
10:42Things have been made for build.
10:43This is a form of coal,
10:44This is a form of coal,
10:44This is a form of coal,
10:45this is a form of coal.
10:46And this means several kinds of coal.
10:48We have to take the oil off of coal,
10:49This is a form of coal,
10:49This is a form of coal that's coal.
