“There is nothing I would love more than not being around you all” you know what essek that’s super fair. they just gave you five horses and made you teleport them twice, I get it

I really loved the switch between Travis as Grog who, he admitted, would run off into action when the planning was turning circular because Grog would not have the patience to wait - and Travis as Fjord who is adamant that they need to rest before they rush off into danger because they don’t know what’s ahead and what if we all die. And now he’s Chetney, who falls somewhere in between.

CR2E79- Through the Trees

Ok I’m at the half-way point! Here we go!

Poor Essek, they really are abusing this relationship and he is having None Of It. 

Also, update on my anthropological study of Widowgast: I don’t think I realized how much textual evidence there was behind this ship. Liam’s really going for at the least a close relationship here with the concerned/comforting arm on the shoulder. Slowly starting to reevaluate my assumption that this ship was just fans smooshing the two Sad Magic boys together.

OMG Caduceus and the fly I Cannot. This is everything I love about our weird nature hermit guy. He was fully prepared to just fuckin follow a fly around the forest all day. I wonder if everyone would have taken him seriously if that Toad hadn’t come along? I think at least Fjord would’ve

then again I suppose there’s nothing to say that the fly wouldn’t have taken them where they needed? Who’s to say.

I know that Beau canonically is crushing on Jester from things that I’ve seen, but I feel like this is the first episode that I might’ve picked up on that if I hadn’t known already. Beau compliments her head and then later eagerly offers to carry her in a way that is just so sweet and earnest. I wonder if this is the point the crush develops and Marisha’s just started laying down hints, or if I missed earlier stuff?

The Yasha scene was so fuckin sad! The way Obann is genuinely nice to her makes him honestly so much scarier, because he just went from blandly evil to complicated, manipulative evil. Liam has said before that Caleb is beginning to realize how much he and Yasha have in common, and I think you can see evidence of that here with how hard he fights to prioritize getting her back. I wonder if that scene didn’t remind him of similar talks between him and Trent.

Ok this argument, and the episode in general, have been so tense! I really feel the weight of the urgency here, with how fucked their situation is and how high the stakes are. 

I use the timestamps on the youtube videos to skip adds and stuff, and the first ones right after the break immediately say “plan is ruined”. So I am extremely scared now.

Matthew probably: No Liam, you're going to have to EARN a romance with another purple NPC!

Any of the might nein screw up anything involving social situations.

Caleb: Oh my goodness I’m so sorry this is completely my fault and my fault alone. We’ll be leaving, once again I’m so sorry. I’m a huge fuckup and once again sorry to bother you.
