Next up, we have the iconic @rahrah.bsky.social as Bright Weather, the house-proud oryctodromeus with a family-sized hole in his life 🥺

Been a little quiet over here at S&S HQ as we've been taking some time to rest & recuperate.

Some news!

Going forward @samsighs.bsky.social is stepping back from the team, and you can find him mostly over at @whohurtyouap.bsky.social telling sad stories.

We wish him all the best for the future.

It's released today, and so we want to throw back to our playthrough of The Time We Have: A Conversation Between Brothers

In this one-shot Sam and Khalil play two brothers, one infected and one not, and their final days together.

It is a stunning game.
