Dream a Little Dream

The hug seemed to go on for several full minutes, Thimble’s grip growing tighter and tighter with each passing second, as if she were afraid he’d disappear or grow back to his normal size at any moment.

Occtis chuckled, then wheezed a bit as he spoke in her ear. “You’re lucky I don’t need to breathe.”

“Shut up. You have no idea how long I’ve wanted to do this.”

Occtis and Thimble take a day off for themselves when a mishap leaves him the same size as her.

Almost 8 thousand words of pure fluff based on the amazing work by @gros-chat-fait that most of you have probably seen by now. I had such a fun time taking details from that and (hopefully) making them come to life even more!

Hope you enjoy!

it's like poetry, they rhyme

[elieowlsclownery]

Okay last thought tonight before I forget. Even as Azune is breaking down showing how scared he is the fucking PIVOT to pressuring Occtis to go with him to the Einfessens in the middle of it gave me goosebumps. I’m 99% certain that his vulnerability was real but that 1% was in the back of my mind thinking how interesting it is that he breaks down at this moment where Occtis can witness it. That’s what makes Azune so interesting, he has such a genuine and sincere affect regardless of whether he’s truly honest or scheming. He knows to use vulnerability to his advantage, and that’s what makes him terrifying.

And then Occtis replying to what may have been Azune manipulating him into using him as evidence by saying he’ll always remember him as a good person in that moment? I do not have the brain capacity at 4AM to unpack the layers to that small consolation that left Azune feeling even more guilty than before.

Guyzzz we’re getting Thimble and Occtis reunion tonight!!!! 🧚🦊

[xenthosss]

Imagine you're like, really important nobility and good friends with the queen herself. You stole a super holy artifact that is literally made from part of your God and gave it to some guy in an empire that you have been enemies with for literal decades. This started a war.

Three months later a group of pink and blue skinned frat bros (Gender neutral) Find their way in front of your queen, lie horribly, and then when they start to get arrested pull out your God and return it

You're then given the task of monitoring and keeping an eye on this new group of people and see if they do anything odd.

After day one they vanish. They return a week later and say they killed a bunch of giants for a war scientist. You look into that and yeah, that's correct, they did that.

So your queen decides to award them a house in a really bougie neighborhood. You spy on them and overhear their conversations still not convinced they're not spies; all you learn is that at least half of these people have never lived in a house before.

You return later to check in on them. There is a tree on top of their house. It is sixty feet tall, and also bright purple.

It has been three days.

Then they return to the queen and go "Heyyyy so those giants we killed are not actually dead, we just returned them to their house because someone was using the house to summon demons, but we think we found the guy doing that, can we like, go and take care of that?" while also being genuinely confused on why 'Can't everyone just stop fighting?' isn't a realistic solution to this conflict.

They vanish two days later. Three days after that you get a call from a burner phone. Its them. They ask you whats the deal with that giant tree in the middle of Chernobyl, because they are at the giant three in the middle of Chernobyl

Every day Essek Thelyss wakes up.

[xenthosss]

Imagine you're this guy. You gave these people a house. It is your house. When you return to your house there is a giant fuck off tree on top of it. And grow lights all over. Grow lights do not exist in this universe.

They return to the Queen after going through Chernobyl. The queen thanks them for some very important intel that saved several lives. They ask if she's going to imprison them for not killing Cthulhu

They learn you have a car when you offer to drive them somewhere. None of them have a car. Now they're asking you to drive them into the middle of a snowstorm. Then they ask you to drive them to see a dragon

They return to the house you gave them. When you come to visit one of them approaches you and says that 'her son is such a sweet boy he'd never bother you with this, but he's been struggling with this, do you think you could turn this off?' while handing you a toy. You press the power button. Her son is an electrical engineer

They say they're going to fight Cthulhu and need another ride. When you get to where they told you they say 'actually we wanted to go somewhere else' and make you drive them into a forest

Every day Essek Thelyss wakes up.

If Murray doesn't become queen of Timmony, I'll riot. King Gus is getting Essek treatment. Go boy, get a player character to fall in love with you!

[At some point in the future]

Occtis: Wait, so your sister risked her life to save you even though you were on opposite sides?

Azune: We promised to protect each other. We're family. Your siblings would—

Occtis, who just helped decapitate his cousin: Nope.

[lesbianpraetor]

Brenan Lee Mulligan's dungeon master philosophy of "We are having the reveal as early as possible so we can get to the consequences which are the good part" strikes once again and I couldn't be more grateful. Mayali Nayar is revealed to be alive and miserable in the first schemers arc but gets away for maximum Plot. She's revealed the next episode from Azune desperately wishing to know who he would have been if Thjazi hadn't forged him in his image and she looks JUST LIKE HIM.

"Withered not of body but of something more profound", her first words are "I remember" with a perfect echo of Azune's entire central theme. She was the one TRUSTED with shooting Yanessa without killing her. This has all the best echoes of the Briarwoods reveal of Cassandra but she's a willing participant to the point where she is content with just the tiniest glimpse of her little brother before going back to whatever has made her so unable to smile that the muscles in her face are withered. Brennan Lee Mulligan and Luis Carazo I'm going to crawl inside your walls. God I love Campaign 4 so much.

Appreciation post for the wizard battle in The Mighty Nein episode eight.

Some shots that are easy to miss:

First up, Ickythong getting electrocuted.

We love to see it.

Hot boi down.

[viciousmollymaukery]

btw it really warms my heart that in campaign 4 the "half" siblings just refer to each other as siblings. hal briefly clarifies that he and thjazi had the same dad but different moms and that's it, that's still his fucking brother through and through. elodie refers to shadia as hero's sister without missing a beat because that's what she is, and when hal is talking to her about the three of them fleeing the city he calls them "our daughters" because that's what they are to both of them. i have "half" siblings and it's just really nice to see them called brothers and sisters with the occasional Lineage Clarification Comment thrown in there because that's so fucking accurate and i genuinely can't remember a piece of media that treats siblinghood like that.

[alexander-ikithon]

Okay so can we talk about the dynamic between Trent and Essek because it's so intriguing to me that Trent calls him "Essek" but Essek calls him "Herr Ikithon" (instead of "Master Ikithon", he chooses the formal German/Zemnian way of addressing him instead of using the 'title' Trent normally uses).

Thing is, German (and therefore also Zemnian) CAN have this "one person uses the first name and the other uses the formal name" dynamic but usually mostly when one person is much older and the two are loose acquaintances and/or when it's a teacher/professor and a student.

However, Essek is older than Trent and isn't it Essek who is teaching Trent about dunamancy, so, shouldn't Essek be the teacher here?

I guess what I'm saying is that TECHNICALLY, if we follow German/Zemnian customs here, Essek should call Trent by his first name and Trent should call him "Mr. Thelyss".

Trent would NEVER tho ofc and the show reflects this perfectly even through those little details: He's basically using Zemnian/German customs to make it clear that he thinks HE is the older guy in charge.

Just finished watching M9, and the most heart-wrenching and mind-bending and soul-destroying thing about this campaign is that Caleb's love language is touch.

That one hug with Beau. Dancing with Jester and Astrid. Literally every single instance of polymorph. ESSEK.

Liam O'Brien, the man that you are...

[pirlicuip]

Crazy how I'm watching Talks Machina for C2E111 and Liam is talking about how if Caleb had encountered Ikithon earlier in the campaign he would have been much more tempted to go back, and realizing that this is exactly the alternate scenario that the animated show was exploring in the last episode

I like how with the inevitable plot changes, they're also following through with the logical consequences of those changes
