thaisha being like "hey, i found a ballista! i'm going to use it!" and then firing it straight at julien and nearly fucking killing him, this dynamic (irony intended) NEVER misses

[ayjaydee]

everyone on the Occtis vs Thaisha discourse and i’m over here just enjoying “WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” and “It pulls to the left!”

I finally, finally, finished EXU: Divergence and boy howdy, let me tell you how I spent the entire last 20 minutes of the last episode sobbing my eyes out and then crying some more over the Cooldown

“I cast Menopause!” and “I wild shape into a mean girl” are in my top quotes for episode 14

Alright, Critters, I need some help. I’m trying to track down one specific moment from campaign 2.

Can anyone help me find the time that Caduceus talked about his hair losing its pink coloring? It was semi-early on, I think it was during the pirate arc on the ship, but also may have been on the way to Xhorhas? Enough time for the dye to start fading. It’s the first time he mentions it and it’s specifically a comment directed at Matt. Travis also makes a ‘huh?’ face because it was new Cad lore.

My eternal gratitude to anyone who can help me track it down 🥹

yeah, Ep 7 was great and everything, I even shed tears and screamed at Essek

BUT WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THIS

I cannot WAIT for my favorite lanky, lonely, pink and gray firbolg to come snatch you up

One of my favorite tropes in all media, that is also severely underrated, is the brotherly bond. Be it true siblings, adoptive siblings or just best friends with that flavor of codependency that pushes it into brother territory. I. Eat. It. Up.

thanks to Cooldown, we now know that Skinner is the true BBEG of campaign 4 and he is not going to rest until he puts his hand hat in you (specifically Teor)

I would like to make the argument that if you were to assign Huntrix songs to Critical Role campaigns, Vox Machina would be “Golden”, Mighty Nein would be “What It Sounds Like”, and Bells Hells would be “How It’s Done”.

Discuss.

I have a lot of faith in the Schemer’s table because if you told me that the weird eccentric socialite museum owner who never takes off his cursed mask, the anti-bourgeois shit talking Dean of a university, a spick and span arcane guard and ex child solider, and the guy who’s two great loves are his theater company and his family were secretly orchestrating a complex political plot together? I’d say you were crazy.

The Curator at the Museum, the Artistic Director of the Regional Theatre, A Respected University Faculty Member, and a local cop start a conspiracy.

it took about a year, but i’m finally caught up on all critical role main campaigns. what a wild, magical, wonderful ride 🥹 already going back and rewatching my favorite moments. i owe so much to CR for getting me involved in D&D and leading me to a fantastic group of friends when i most needed it. i’m so excited to get to follow CR4 from the beginning and watch the story unfold!

Wick: May I make a suggestion, if we’re making suggestions? You shouldn’t drink that much

Travis: I. Eat. Wick.

i’m 5’0 but you can bet i will now forever refer to myself as a short 5’11

laudna giving ashton the doll is one of the most beautiful moments of all 3 campaigns. like. the vulnerability. the drama. the sweet moment of imogen reaching out to comfort ashton even though she’s still mad. don’t even get me started on the journey of emotions on both matt and ashley’s faces. it’s just perfection

[ayjaydee]

watching Chetney’s first episode and dying of laughter 😂 Travis made a masterpiece
