I have never related to anything more than someone having to roll a 25 insight check to figure out that I was making a joke.

Words cannot describe how much I love Essek 😂

Campaign 2, Episode 139

[ravendruid]

Lucien thirst trapping everyone.

[moxvachina]

i’m starting episode 139 of mighty nein right now and i am getting very emotional about being so close to the end

[lessattitudemorealtitude]

I love Taliesin’s internal Molly processing the things his friends are saying to Lucien... and Lucien’s reactions are all so precious and heartbreaking, Molly fighting Lucien from within...

[bisexuel]

under 4 hours. terrifying

[sparring-spirals]

heyo remember when the nein were in a flesh tunnel in an abomination of a living city, and their worst enemy lost friend was like. regenerating or swallowing the somnovum one flesh room away, and they were VERY POSSIBLY GOING TO DIE, and the world with them. and jester was like. okay you assholes. sit down, we're eating a feast.

and they sat down. in that flesh tunnel. and Jester created some soup and chicken satay and pineapple fried rice and grilled cheese sandwiches and pancakes, and they ate bread and soup and talked about last wishes and last words and regrets. And had conversations swinging from "if you die, what do you want us to tell your family?" to "well yasha, i think you made a big mistake going with beau when i was available-" to "if we die, i don't have any regrets" to "what do you MEAN you don't like soup-"

(essek. is making a joke.)

anyway. thats all. clustered in a grotesque flesh tunnel, floating in the astral sea, metres and minutes away from your potential doom, eating food and soup with people you love, people you trust, people you would die for, people you would live for. you know. thats all.

Essek was making a joke.

[fagdyk]

Diversity win: this BBEG's biggest weakness is being deadnamed

[imbored-13]

all of the Nein during the fight w Lucien:

[saturdaysky]

just a shadowhand, floating in the astral sea, about to turn his friends into dunamancy noodles. those pesky charm effects are killer :)

[sivsii]

mods r asleep time for shitposts with sivsi :)

[theregoesmylurkerstatus]

Essek: I have lied to you all, I was the traitor :(

Jester:

Essek, some weeks later: Actually I was lying, soup isn’t my favourite food lol

Jester: ESSEK HOW COULD YOU

[seanotturom]

lucien went into his creepy somnovum chrysalis to remake himself like: I heard that the nonagon had a nine-pack. that the nonagon was shredded

Narratively? Very poetic that the Mighty Nein are surrounding and needling this monstrosity with reminders of humanity and someone they love and callbacks to a relationship that so strongly defined them, and its working.

Mechanically? Very funny that surrounding this eldritch being and whispering choice phrases is actively working to battle it. Like a bunch of middle school teens waging psychological warfare. No one is immune to The Mean And Pointed Whispering. Even wanna-be tentacle eyeball gods.
