So normal about Astrid carrying a physical reminder of Bren's breaking point and symbolic death on her body forever . He's literally the scar that won't fade <3 He's literally part of her forever

Astrid was HAPPY but SURPRISED to have Bren/caleb come back into her life.

I am curious about the surprise specifically. And think that’s why she’s helping him. Let me explain.

The first time she saw him, when he came to her alone, I believe she was thinking that he had moved on in a sense. Like, ‘he’s going to just leave again and pursue his own interests. I miss what we were to each other but he has moved on while Wulf and I are stuck here under Trent. It doesn’t make sense for him to want to come back to this.”

but then Caleb came back. He agreed to dinner with them and Trent. She saw him and his family not be under trent’s thumb, and actively subverted what he tries to do to manipulate caleb. And I think that made her want even more to be out from under Trent’s thumb, and perhaps this instance began a shift in her perspective. “Race you to the top” vs “he’s an old man and eventually, he will die.” Something to wait for becomes something to race towards. And I do agree she has her own goals, she likely wants a spot on the assembly or some other seat of power, but I do think she has a strong motivation to get out from under Trent’s control. Maybe that is even her STRONGEST motivation.

Then Caleb comes back AGAIN, after it is presumed the Nein took down Vess in some capacity when he reached out to her specifically, she said, knowing he is being watched, THANK YOU and came to him and followed through when he asked.

Basically, she sees him doing BOLD things in the face of The Assembly and Trent- things that SURPRISE her- and I think her seeing him and his friends make these bold moves inspires her to do the same. Sure, she’ll go behind Trent’s back to get the Sanitorium’s plans, sure, she’ll warn the Nein that Trent is on his way to chase them.

Bren got himself out from under Trent’s thumb. Maybe he’s showing her and Wulf how to as well.

because we all know i’m the most annoying swiftie in the land and with the release of fearless (taylor’s version), i added some fearless songs to my critical role ships playlists but it’s just taylor swift songs.

FJORESTER PLAYLIST / link

hey stephen: cause I can't help it if you look like an angel, can't help it if i wanna kiss you in the rain, so come feel this magic I've been feeling since i met you, can't help it if there's no one else, mmm, i can't help myself (...) hey stephen, why are people always leaving? i think you and i should stay the same.

today was a fairytale: can you feel this magic in the air? it must have been the way you kissed me. fell in love when i saw you standin' there, it must have been the way today was a fairytale (...) all that i can say is now it's getting so much clearer, nothing made sense 'til the time i saw your face.

BEAUYASHA PLAYLIST / link

come in with the rain: talk to the wind, talk to the sky, talk to the man with the reasons why, and let me know what you find. i'll leave my window open 'cause i'm too tired tonight to call your name, just know I'm right here hoping that you'll come in with the rain (...) i've watched you so long, screamed your name, i don't know what else i can say.

SHADOWGAST PLAYLIST / link

untouchable: in the middle of the night when i'm in this dream, it's like a million little stars spelling out your name. you gotta, come on, come on say that we'll be together, come on, come on (...) untouchable burning, brighter than the sun, now that you're close i feel like coming undone.

BRENSTRID (that’s the ship name?? idk) PLAYLIST / link

don’t you: don't you smile at me and ask me how i've been, don't you say you've missed me if you don't want me again, you don't know how much i feel i love you still, so why don't you, don't you? (...) sometimes i really wish that i could hate you, i've tried, but that's just somethin' i can't do, my heart knows what the truth is, i swore i wouldn't do this.

Honestly, despite being pretty in the bag for Widojest, I don't hate Fjorester being canon. It wasn't a ship I liked early on, because i honestly did not like Fjord early on. Something about him rang hollow for me, and of course we eventually learned what that was. But post-Wildmother Fjord? I like him a lot more, and I do think he's a good fit for Jester, and I'm very happy for Laura that her long con to get Travis to do romance in a DnD game worked out for her.

I really think Widojest and Fjorester were pretty neck and neck, and it was probably going to come down to who could spit it out first, and let's be real, that was never going to be Caleb. Not without some serious character development, anyway.

Fortunately for me, I also ship Shadogast and Brenstrid, so I've still got hope for flamey wizard boy.
