Episode 24 - Reunions and Departures (Life After Magic and Citizen Sleeper)

[Spoilers abound for Life After Magic and Citizen Sleeper!]

This week, Willa and Robin take their final trip to Erlin's Eye, with the last episode of our 2022 GOTY Citizen Sleeper. We chart the very different paths we took to find community in the ruins of capitalism and get predictably choked up about it.

But first, we both played another game we can't stop talking about: the magical girl visual novel Life After Magic! Huh, it's also about searching for community in a world that doesn't want you to have it, imagine that. We cover its deft handling of difficult friendships, brilliant metaphors for angst and burnout, and a boatload of cute lesbians.
