You remind me of how little I deserve

I was watching a Byler edit (lesbyyler on TikTok) to this audio and I knew I had to remake it with them UGH they make me sick!!! Kind of inspired by deathgroupie’s jopflogging theory… I just find Jopzier’s dynamic so interesting in general.

I hope in the animated mighty nein show they keep Nott repeatedly endangering/ killing Caduceus with her recklessness with the exploding arrows (or at least have the one big moment). I also hope they do a bit more with it in the show, like some sort of mild confrontation about her behavior. Idk, Caduceus is so kind, maybe there could be slightly more emphasis on it considering she LITERALLY KILLED HIM lmfao. (C2 E55 4:03:40)

Maybe one of the others could be like wtf? You killed Caduceus! holy shit! And then the two of them could have a nice chat like they did when Taliesin got back (I so wish he hadn't been absent that next episode, but it is what it is). Percy got punched in the face by Vax for forgetting to check for traps, which accidentally killed Vex, which they very much amped up for the animation into him coaxing her into being reckless. Veth ACTIVELY exploded Caduceus to death because she wasn't paying attention to where she aimed or collateral damage radius to her weapon! They've gotta play with that!

It can also set up a pattern of recklessness that pays off in the fact that she very much got herself killed fucking around dismantling deadly traps. I don't remember if she was drunk or nott; C2 E83 (3:19:15) AND how later on her and Jester being loud and reckless endangered her both their friends and families and got Veth's son killed. I'm not still salty about C2 E129 no siree, I'm not still irritated that Veth and Jester couldn't sit still for 10 fucking minutes to let Caleb cast the dome, nope, not me lmfao. (Speaking of life lessons I hope they emphasize a little harder in the animated show, Marion and Yeza are waaaaaay too nice hahaha. Also they didn't really know it was 100% Jester and Veth's fault but I digress). Combined with her arc about alcoholism and self worth I can see a really great storyline. Those are very strong, interesting themes to write about.

Maybe she goes on a mini bender out of guilt for hurting Caduceus after or something, or just some actual conversations between the characters about it, anything really to have it in the narrative. That death is when he gets his first in campaign major vision from the Wildmother as well, so that would be very interesting to see. Especially if they manage to preserve the blink and you miss it information buried in a beautiful conversation with his sister later on that he used to eat lilies (which are poisonous plants irl) to try to talk to the Wildmother when he was all alone. Campaign 2, Episode 130 (2:37:32) The subtle tragedy of his loneliness and isolated devotion are so slept on sometimes so I really hope it's addressed more.

They said they were changing things; that's one of the things I hope gets fleshed out a bit more. Taliesin really played support for most of C2 and he did it wonderfully, but I hope they take the opportunity to bring some of his more subtle character journey to the forefront for the show.

Having thoughts any normal well adjusted person would have: how would the (adult) ISAT party handle their alcohol? So warning in advance for that

Mirabelle: drinks occasionally and lightly, usually only at formal events but will have one when out with friends sometimes. Doesn't like being TOO drunk cus feeling out of control makes her anxiety worse. Also any heavy drinking would probably not mix well with whatever meds she's on

Isabeau: only drinks socially. Is a surprising lightweight for his size. Gets all giggly and wobbly after like 2 beers. Limits his intake due to the possibility of getting a little too open and vulnerable. Has drunk-cried multiple times.

Odile: semi-regular drinker. Has been drinking for a long time and has built up a decently high tolerance. Pounds shots back like it's nothing. Will have some vodka in her coffee to relax in the evening. Has been less than responsible with it in the past. Getting her drunk is one of the few ways to get her to let her usual deadpan demeanor slip, to quite amusing results.

Siffrin: drank only casually pre-loops. Would have one or two at random taverns to take his mind off things, and drank with the party as well. Opposite of Isa, weirdly high tolerance for such a small fella. A quiet drunk, doesn't outwardly change much besides slurring his words a bit and generally mellowing out. Unsurprisingly the most susceptible to overusing/abusing alcohol, especially postgame. Has had more than one incident of having too much to drown out painful memories and having to be dragged to bed passed out.

Six Blocks Away

I lay on the rocks and dirt along the river’s shore She’s only six blocks away Sleeping in another bed And I’m wide awake with a bottle of the cheapest whiskey I could get before nine o’clock It stopped being about the flavor a long time ago

There’s no company to keep and so I smoke cigarettes down to the filter watching the waters move slowly above yet enough to drown you underneath It’s always about the undertow At least, that’s what I’m telling myself in some desperate clinging need to survive this And everyone knows that’s just a line

She’ll walk in the morning and have coffee coffee with her rekindled love and I’ll chase the dog with whatever swallows escape the night Go back to my apartment the place where her goddamn ghost still haunts It’s been a few days since I’ve changed my clothes

I flick my cigarette into the water where it pops with a satisfying hiss Somewhere a car horn cracks the night air and I’m sure someone was on the receiving end of an angry middle finger I hate this city and I don’t know how to escape it I can’t leave because for some reason some awful unknown reason I still carry a bit of hope in my back pocket It kept me afloat it kept me buoyant

My eyes are red and stinging because that crying stage hasn’t ended yet and I don’t know if it ever will I’m already sick of my view being obscured goddammit, there’s always something in my eye or whatever else I can use as an excuse But there’s no point in it because everyone looks at me and sees a broken man

I sleep in the dirt clutching my bottle so someone doesn’t take it and she sleeps just six blocks away in another man’s bed
