The King has returned

[foxqueen-katarian]

I don’t think having connections to previous campaigns was the problem, I think centering your entire backstory around them was.

Orym has a tenuous connection to Kiki, and this manifests in knowing more about what’s happening in the wider political landscape (even if it’s just knowing who the players are). Orym is a fully functional person outside of his connection to Kiki. In fact you can remove his being a Tempest Blade from his backstory and just make him a standard Ashari and it all still makes sense.

Bertrand went to the Hells with VM, but other than being able to name drop them, he didn’t have much going on with them.

Ashton having Dunamancy Juice in his brain made for some interesting conversations with Essek, and Caleb, and the Bright Queen. But he had other shit going on between the Titans and trying to keep his suicidal robot friend alive, and finding out what happened to him as a kid, that if you took the Dunamancy Juice out there’s still something to dig into.

Laudna’s whole deal though is/was Delilah. You can’t separate her from that callback, you can’t ignore it. It’s there, all the time. And it means that on some level Laudna is a problem the Vox Machina needs to deal with, it means spending time in White Stone, it means interacting with Vox Machina. It means introducing those characters into C3 in a way that you can’t take back or move past.

And it’s funny, because the people I see complain the most about ‘Bells Hells getting sidelined in their own campaign’ are generally Laudna/Imodna stans. Your girl’s the one who opened that door, and once it was opened there was no closing it again.

kudos to jorge for continually making the release of the ithaca saga an immersive experience by going to ithaca itself, missing the ferry, getting caught in a storm, and having the livestream delayed. can’t wait to see everyone in ten years for the final album!

[worddevourer]

Wait, is Orym's bananas high perception a trauma response to not spotting the assassins that killed his husband coming? Is it literally 'Nobody will ever be able to sneak up on the people I care about like that again?'

Like, in my head, I was going 'oh haha, this is Liam trying to make the perfect counter to someone like Vax, someone who can beat a high level rogue's minimum stealth role,' but like... in character? In character this is a man who has decided he'll never let anyone catch him unawares again.

[worddevourer]

Oh you're absolutely correct. I kind of brushed that one off because I was like 'well yeah, he's a bodyguard, so he's doing bodyguard things.' But also... There's a reason he doubled down on those skills.

[worddevourer]

Orym, probably:

It really is simple arithmetic: If everyone else survives the fight, he wins. If anyone else dies, he loses the fight. His own survival is only a priority if everyone else is already secure.

should I write another fanfic? And if so, for which fandom?? I NEED IDEAS PEOPLE. I am gnawing at the bit to write something!

[johnnytrevelyan]

I love stories.

And i need stories with big feelings - not the little ones. Let the plot rip my heart out. Leave me crying over the regret of a character. Let me sob about the purest of hearts and the softest words (un)spoken. End me with the worst possible outcome of the story.

Let the fictional hurt weight heavier than the weltschmerz I carry around daily.
