Imogen: "Chetney, have you ever seen furniture come to life?"

Chetney: "Oh yes."

Imogen: "Oh, you have?"

Chetney: "Before my very eyes."

Imogen: "Really? Did it attack?"

Chetney: "The senses? Nightly. An onslaught of beauty."

Imogen: "Oh, I--"

Chetney: "Hour by hour. Chip by chip. Little nick by little nick, the word blood just working itself into the wood grain. Oh, it attacked all right. It left its mark here." *points at his own heart*

Imogen: "Has it ever attacked you physically?"

Chetney: "...I'm sorry?"

I’m still crazy about the fact that Orym is known ass the chill guy, talk things out first kinda guy, non threatening, at least/especially early campaigns,

then as soon as old man Chet starts messing with Dorian, before he really introduces himself, he’s like “if you mess with Dorian, you’re messing with me, so get ready to catch these hands old man, I’m fucking taller than you, got it?” Kkkkkk

Also Dorian’s reaction, that little smile, absolutely adorable

Bonus Chetney absolutely clocking them in assuming that they were dating, which they weren’t at the time kkkkk and just assuming Orym was like asking if he was gonna be a piece of shit about them being gay together or whatever, and Chetney being just like “I’m an asshole, not a homophobe”

Insane too watching all this up until last year and genuinely feeling crazy cause nothing was canon, but like as per Cheney i too thought between exu to c3 they just got together, and then had to suffer three fucking years of feeling like it was a widofjord all over again(it wasn’t, it was more of beauyasha thank gods!)

[Bahumia theme fades out.] Murph: WEL-come back to Bahumia everybody! Jake, Emily, and Caldwell: Ba-HU-mia! Murph: I'm your dungeon master (laughing) Brian Murphy, joined by Jake Hurwitz-- [Clip cuts forward. Emily, Jake, and Caldwell are laughing.] Murph: Uh, sweet guys, uh, why don't we go ahead and do a little recap? Caldwell and Jake: Yes please. Emily, enthusiastically: Ok Murph! [Caldwell and Jake laugh.] Murph: This was-- you're bringing off-mic bits onto mic. [Emily laughs.] When we-- Caldwell: You're bridging the bit! Murph: Yeah. The reason I was-- Jake: Sorry about that, Murph! Murph: The reason I was laughing-- Emily: (laughing harder) Sorry about that, Murph! Murph: You-- We can't all talk over each other-- Caldwell: It's okay, Murphs! Murph: We all have to calm down (laughing) and let each other speak. Caldwell: Everyone let Murph speak! Murph: That has to happen! Jake: Go ahead, Murph! [Emily is still laughing. She laughs harder.] Murph: Ok-- Thanks guys. (laughing) I-- haven't described what you're doing. [The others laughing.] Right before we started everyone just kept being really polite, but in a way that was not letting me start the recording. Any time I said "we're about to-- let's get started" they would go "ok Murph!" "let's go Murph!" "ready to go Murph!" Emily: I remember that, Murph! Murph: Yeah. Jake: Yeah. Sorry about interrupting you, Murph! Murph: Well the people at home didn't remember it, cause they didn't know. We have to tell them what's going on. (laughing) We can't just say shit. Caldwell: We should do a recap before the recap, Murphs. [Emily laughs.] Murph: Yeah, this is the pre- (laughing) the pre-show recap of the stupid fucking bits you guys do. [The others laugh.] Jake: Well put, Murph! Murph: Yeah this is why I was laughing when I said my name. Emily: (cackles) Touché, Murph! Murph: Okay guys. Uh, let's go ahead and do the real recap. Caldwell, whispering: Sounds good Murph! [Emily and Jake laugh.] Murph: So last time, you guys began-- (laughs). You have to stop. You have to stop. Emily: That was-- Caldwell's one was really good at the end. Murph, over her: So last time, last time, you guys began in Ma Goblin's moving lab [clip fades out].

I do wanna say, for the hindsight of the Bells Hells Rewatch, that if Matt had intended for Bells Hells to help Cyrus out, to seek out Jiana Hexum's stolen security automaton (and get some Ruby Vanguard inklings/connections from that as stated in the Wrap Up), he shouldn't have had Cyrus insist he was going to handle his own problem.

Bells Hells was a group that was happy to take missions, be given directions. They literally went right back to Eshteross after finishing up with the Dugger job to ask for the next one.

If Cyrus had said "please help me," Bells Hells would have been on the case in a flash. Especially since Dorian would want to help his brother too.

Instead it was a bunch of Cyrus insisting he could handle paying off the bounty himself. So the party respected that.

I'm just saying, this is another one of those miscast story hooks that Campaign 3 was rife with.

In c3 e8 Dorian has to walk back alone at night to the Tavern they're staying at. They were all super nervous after he rolled average for his stealth check and we're so extremely relieved he found his way safely.

And as much as it was logical for the characters to be scared and for that to be unusual I couldn't help but think how this is such a normal fear for so many women.

Sure, it's different when a friend has just been unalived in a similar situation and you live in a world where pretty much everyone is armed (with weapons or magic) but being relieved after getting home safely when you're travelling alone at night just doesn't strike me as something special.
