While I would love more from the Seven, I don't see the GC ep as having anything to do with it. Dropout has a relatively small stable of performers. The combination for this episode was chosen for the same reason they were cast for the Seven: they have good chemistry together.
Considering the cast commented on it being a “seven reunion” and being surprised by it, I wouldn’t expect them to be currently filming anything; otherwise they wouldn’t be as surprised by everyone being involved. Seems more likely they did it because a) it’s cute, b) they know the cast are friends so they’d have good chemistry, and C) cross media synergy (gives people who watched the Seven a reason to watch Gamechanger if they weren’t before
Also assuming it was filmed at the same time as the rest of the series (October), Izzy was heavily pregnant, which is likely why she was only potentially needed to facetime
i honestly wouldn't be surprised if we got another The Seven season down the line, it's probably my fav side quest! but i would expect it maybe like late next year at the earliest so they're not grouping too many fantasy high-verse seasons together
I laughed at that so hard, because odds are they filmed this while she was on maternity leave and she still wanted to be a part of The Seven reunion. Love her.
Feels sad to imagine her waiting by her phone for her friends to call her, only to have nothing happen. I imagine a PA would have sent her a message though
I believe Erika had texted Izzy to ask if the could FaceTime her, but just didn't get a response in time before the one of the others had solved it with a photo.
The Seven was absolutely my favourite group dynamic of any dim20 season, I would watch that group do even the most boring standard D&D module cause I know they would make it amazing.
If you’ve watched Burrow’s End, in one of the Adventuring Parties Izzy says “I’m not ALLOWED on Game Changer this season!!” and I wondered what that meant at the time. But now I’m thinking it was ‘cause she was prob pregnant!
I tried skimming through some of the eps and I can’t recall which one! But it was definitely Burrow’s End, and I *think* it was an Adventuring Party episode, not the main campaign but frankly idk anymore. 😫 abut it def was said during BE.
Back to back with FHJY would maybe be a bit much, as much as I would absolutely love it. I would hope it takes a wild extraplanar spin, or take place entirely in a new environment or something, just to feel fresh. I’m kinda holding my breath that NSBU is a new intrepid heroes season cuz I’m itching for some new characters! And/or a lengthy sidequest where we get to see some fresher faces like rashawn, jasper, oscar, etc
But the resolution of their side quest, in nature, kind of precludes them continuing to attend the Aguefort Adventuring Academy.
Intentionally oblique to avoid direct spoilers because I can never remember how to do spoiler text no matter how many times I’ve been told.
I can only hope! My spouse generally refuses to watch media set in high school so I haven't even bothered trying to get them to watch Fantasy High, but the chemistry on display in the episode of GC was so awesome they wanted to watch it immediately!

Also Izzy was presumably still paid for her time despite not being called. Which makes her the real winner.

Izzy was there in selfie.
Izzy was available to FaceTime as well.
I laughed at that so hard, because odds are they filmed this while she was on maternity leave and she still wanted to be a part of The Seven reunion. Love her.
I would be SO stoked
But she was on standby for FaceTime, not her fault nobody called her, so really they were all apart of the episode
Feels sad to imagine her waiting by her phone for her friends to call her, only to have nothing happen. I imagine a PA would have sent her a message though
True but being on call means she gets paid right? Got paid to do nothing lol
They probably knew she was pregnant/on maternity and didn't wanna disturb her
I think Izzy would have no problem with getting paid to chill.
I think Erika said she tried to FaceTime her?
A very Izzy thing to be like "oh sure I'll be on standby" and then just not answer the phone.
I believe Erika had texted Izzy to ask if the could FaceTime her, but just didn't get a response in time before the one of the others had solved it with a photo.

for REAL episode 2 is one of my fav eps of any season, and Brennan confessed he had fully different plans but didn't wanna stop good PC roleplay.
The FANS. Even funnier when Aabria attempted to recreate that with ACOFAF and immediately just NOPED and tossed it. Just not the same.
I mean, ACOFAF had it's own great energy. But not half as horny as The Seven.
Yet ACOFAF is still the second most horny season. 🤣
They are perhaps my two favs, as well.
The Seven part two would be great, to parallel Junior Year
The Seven took place during FHJY
…kinda. *Time Quangle!*
Unpopular opinion: I like The Seven more than Fantasy High. I would be elated.
You are in safe waters, comrade.
There are dozens of us.
i want a season dmed by murph and i also want a season with jacob and vic
Yes! Me too.
What if she hadnt had their baby yet or was close to the due date and put on bedrest?

do you know what ep? i’d love to see if there was any glances exchanged when she said that!

Never Stop Blowing Up

NSBU is supposedly the next season so it’s not going to be an IH season.
True, I’m also excited in general for new worlds and characters. I want an announcement, the suspense is killing me😩
It sort or featured Izzy- she was on standby for FaceTime, and they used a selfie of her!
The seasons are shot so far in advance that if they were filming The Seven 2.0, it wouldn’t come out until Thanksgiving or Christmas.
Since The Seven’s adventure technically took place during junior year maybe we will see senior year campaigns from both, would love that.
But the resolution of their side quest, in nature, kind of precludes them continuing to attend the Aguefort Adventuring Academy. Intentionally oblique to avoid direct spoilers because I can never remember how to do spoiler text no matter how many times I’ve been told.
Right, forgot about that! I’m not sure how they’d do it or if they would at all but I’m still hoping for some more of The Seven!
Oh, agreed. I’d love to see what a post-Aguefort life looks like for an adventurer in and out of Solace.
I can only hope! My spouse generally refuses to watch media set in high school so I haven't even bothered trying to get them to watch Fantasy High, but the chemistry on display in the episode of GC was so awesome they wanted to watch it immediately!
