Okay. Ive watched episode 64. So spoilers ahead.
Everyones upset… over *that*? Over. Fae curses, warping the mind and ‘breaking up’ gideon and kremy? Over the exact thing that this campaign fuels its humor on, on things that disappear once the scene is clear (i have full faith that this will all be cleared in the open of episode 65, if they choose to drink the water or take in a nice breath of air idfk. Nikkie always makes it something pleasant and natural. And even if not then it’ll likely happen eventually)? Everyones upset for the session being… normal?
I get it. Coalecroux is really cute, but ive seen people genuinely acting like it was the end of the world. Making trigger warning posts and blaming the players for what they reacted to so naturally and with the scene they were given. And to that, i feel like people need to take a bit of a step back from the ship and realize that this is more than a near-canon pairing’s story, but a full tale. Once Upon A Witchlight doesn’t run on coalecroux. It runs on the table as a whole. And by god, did the table do fucking great in this one.
Day after edit: i wrote this at two am. Im not gonna rewrite anything for clarity but if i came off as rude. Or seemingly with a ‘better than others’ air over it all that wasnt my intent. I know people react differently to things than i do, and just like how people are allowed to have different feelings, im allowed to have feelings about how people react. I dont think anyone lesser for being upset over the episode or even not wanting to watch it! I’m just voicing my upset over the extremeties ive happened to see and how it feels like theres disregard for the story entirely for the sake of ship. Its an opinion. Its a personal upset. Just like everyone elses is. End of the day im not out here shunning people for having emotions. Im using my blog to.. blog about my experiences and feelings lmao
