Orym almost getting electrocuted and Dorian trying to step in to help him, "I am the lightning.... You dragged me from a wonderfully fun tavern into hell, and you try to electrocute my boyfriend? Not a chance!" like a romance novel hero, while Chetney tries to help Dorian by implying he fucked Orym's mom.

Chetney/Deanna is something that genuinely remains so sweet. They had a passionate affair hundreds of years ago when they were both younger with lots of beach sex. She's just a little older now and he's a wizened old man werewolf now and they hook up when it's convenient (non-exclusively, company optional) and give each other deeply thoughtful gifts and care about each other.

After a fair bit of water has passed under the bridge of Campaign 3 and Campaign 4 is about to begin, I'm putting my thoughts into words regarding the Bells Hells (this is not a call for debate, just an opinion)

I love them for all their imperfections because they weren't your stereotypical D&D adventurer characters. Except for Imogen (because Laura Bailey) and Dorian (because it was Robbie's first campaign), none of them were conventionally attractive; and they all struggled in some way. They struggled against age and oblivion, mistreatment, abuse, sadness, loneliness, abandonment, chronic pain, rejection, and general awkwardness.

They were fighting against a world that didn't want them there, a campaign that at times felt like it could play out whether the Hells were there or not, against fans who came from a popular campaign and characters that didn't give them a chance.

I found Campaign 1 fun, I didn't have the time that most had for the Campaign 2 characters to grow on me (healthcare workers in the middle of a pandemic, am I right?) and I couldn't get past the phase where I found them very annoying. But the Hells reached that little part of my heart that always felt insufficient, insecure, and overlooked, I loved them instantly.

And after the campaign ended, the Hells remain a divided opinion, inside and outside of Exandria, but I still adore them because none of them magically solved their problems; they are still there, they just adapted and continue living.

This is where my rant ends.

orym saying “and you’re right, our friend is the only thing keeping [predathos] in check. we have things to discuss.” and vusono asking “discuss with who?” and laudna saying flatly “certainly not you.” and imogen saying “I think we need to get to vasselheim.” and chetney saying calmly “don’t worry, we’ll let you accompany us. that’s a better deal than you’re going to get otherwise.” and orym adding “we believe many of your masters are already expecting us.” this is a really good time for this group to have gotten their shit together
