hello???

(Video transcript: Liam O'Brien saying "Because Caleb, as many people know, including Essek, is a giver." )

#shadowgast #haven't seen anyone else post this clip yet at a brief glance at the tag so #like for context in the interview this was very much being used as a euphemism for topping

could this ashari child be a young Will in the new ep? not sure the age adds up, and not sure how old this kid is supposed to be anyway, i think orym would be like six around this year so will is probably around the same, but i feel like it could be him. or maybe its just some other half elf (?) ashari child and i'm just reaching for connections to other campaigns, but like, kinda looks like him to me and I'd assume Derrig was there so it would make sense for him to be there

#the legend of vox machina spoilers #tlovm spoilers #tlovm season 4 #critical role campaign 3 #bells hells #orym of the air ashari #will critical role #his skin tone is maybe darker than wills is in the only official art we have of him (and same w the official art of derrig) but like that #to me doesnt necessarily mean this couldnt still possibly be will imo #his age is somewhat unclear but he was definitely at least born at this point #i feel like it would make sense if theyd put in some nod to derrig or orym in one of the ashari scenes in vm

Writing tips:

“You feel the bulge in his pants” - implies that you are feeling some guy’s penis, may be sexy depending on context

“You feel the bugle in his pants” - implies that this guy has a military horn in his pants, invites confusing questions like why does he have that and how big are his pockets

Both options convey that he's horny

How dare you be funnier than me on my own post

Con had a button maker, so naturally I had to make this for my lanyard. (Don't mind the handwriting, it was done in crayola marker with my Essek gloves on, these suck to do anything in)

Learned yesterday it is in fact possible to waltz (just a really basic box step at a pretty slow tempo at least) in my Essek mantle, it actually doesn't restrict doing so at all (though I'm not sure how comfortable having their arm touching it may have been for my dance partner) so jotting that thought down for fanfic reasons. For some reason I thought it'd get in the way a lot more than it does.

#critical role #essek thelyss #my mantle is surprisingly comfortable in general #though note that it is not canon accurate- it doesn't go around the neck. it is just two pauldrons connected w some chains #I managed to dance while also explaining Kryn culture and stuff to someone without stumbling over my steps once despite the yapping #I am generally quite bad at dancing for Disability Reasons so I'm quite surprised at how well I managed to dance #for context for anyone who didn't see last post - doing an Essek cosplay at a con lol #kinda tempted now to write a fic w disabled!Essek abt dancing lol #because I like projecting #and like there's Caleb's whole thing abt dancing w Astrid

Essek fans of tumblr, anybody got any ideas for some last minute cosplay props for Essek? Con's on Friday. In my defense of why I'm only doing this now, I only decided to cosplay Essek a week ago. Got a 3D printer and paint but I'm mainly trying to figure out if I have any stuff already lying around that would work because I have work tomorrow and don't want to waste materials too much.

Already got a beacon from my Caleb cosplay, that's gonna be my main prop but I'm trying to think of a few other things because it's kinda small and I don't think it looks amazing. I'll probably keep a few loose (faux) pearls in my belt pouch and if I find another CR cosplayer I could do a fortune's favor pic. Could probably repurpose a book to be a spell book, just can't think of a specific book I have that would work. I'll probably bring my Caleb scarf. Maybe I'll bring Der Katzenprinz and Tusk Love but those are kinda heavy. I feel like parasol is the obvious answer but despite being a Taako cosplayer I don't have a great option that would work, all my fancy umbrellas are red, but I probably will have an umbrella on me because it's going to rain and my paint is water based, but it probably won't be one I could pretend is a parasol or would be the wrong color. If I finish it in time, I'll bring my Caleb necklace too since Essek also ends up with one of those, but I've been having some issues with that and I'm worried I'm not going to have it done in time to wear it the day I go as Caleb.

#critical role #essek thelyss #this got pretty rambling but I hope it's comprehensible

what if we were both wizards and I tried to crack a dumb joke to lighten the atmosphere after an emotional talk about hope and atonement in a room full of stars and possibility?

So I read this fic (I'll link it in the notes) in which there was this very emotional parallel between Taako realizing he has a sister for the first time, and post-Stolen Century Taako remembering that he has a sister. Just had to illustrate it :')
