Just a couple of Critical Role WIPs that I'm working on. The right one is basically me trying color schemes and seeing what I like best. If you have a preference, let me know! I'd love to get some fresh eyes on this cause I can't make up my mind.
I've been watching C2 over and over for the past like 4 months and I watched C1 as well but it left me emotionally wrecked so now I'm afraid of getting into C3.

Okay so, not to be That Guy but i Love how cr portrays ptsd??
Like w Caleb it felt both straight forward, we Know that this is ptsd bc he plays into the ptsd trope early early on, BUT ALSO, he's incredibly subtle w it A Ton, which is Awesome
SO WITH THAT SAID
I want to give Marisha her due bc Laudna's ptsd is SO MUCH (can't wait to get her book)
She both exhibits the avoidant and dissociative trait that caleb does BUT i'd like to add to that the Layers that her disociative symptoms have
Like she Actively Regresses (which we Know marisha plays Really well from watching her play Beau, that was heart breaking btw) and acts younger/more violent/less social Very Suddenly after a trigger.
It's So Telling to me that delilah didn't trigger laudna, she only spurred her on. Orym was the trigger. Which is why she's not blaming delilah she's blaming orym. He's the scary one to her, wether she gets why or not.
Delilah just uses it to her advantage, spurring on her paranoia, but the Reason delilah goes away at the end is bc Laudna snaps out of it (and OH MY GOD matt and marisha were So Good at reading each other in that moment that was a Joy).
Anyhooooo, laudna relatable, laudna justifying trigger by blaming friend for bad feeling.
Love to see it.
Cheffs kiss

On ep. 81 of campaign 3 now... and I'm just so very in love with this story.
I always love it when Morri shows up and other people see her relationship with Fearne for the first time.
The team building exercises, lore drops, and beautiful imagery were awe-inspiring.
I've been waiting to see the reunion of Dorian/Crownkeepers and Bells Hells (I miss Dorian/robbie); I can't wait to witness that episode and cry.
FCG and the Changebringer (finding purpose and defying gods?)
Imodna keeps breaking my heart, Chet has more backstory that hurts my feelings,(not to mention the perfect moments of Chet comforting Fearne. Orym and Fearne and the spyglasses. They're so precious, and I never want this campaign to end. <3

CR3 EPISODE 59 RANT
Okay so I've finally watched episode 59 and... it was so good. utkarsh as a fresh player is such a good addition to the table, i ADORE the way he plays because it's the lack of experience of the player really making the lack of experience of bor'dor that much more delightful.
aimee is always a joy to see and im so thrilled she brought deni$e into the fray because that's such an hilarious gag character. reminds me of travis making chutney his PC and it actually becoming a very good character. (miss you already pock o'pea 馃拸).
AND EMILY!!!! im more into cr than d20 but i fucking loved a court of fey and flowers so much and emily was an absolute fucking gem in that, and she was an absolute genius in neverafter. i've seen clips of her brilliance but getting TWO crits back to back almost immediately was fucking crazy, matt I'm praying for you fr. love prism, she's so funky and cool, and so autism coded. (just like bor'dor)
--
on to the three hellians we're following this go around. taliesin and marisha are trying to ruin my life, im absolutely fucking convinced. marisha already knows how to pull on those imogen heart strings, just like Laura. and taliesin plays ashton as completely wired and absolutely determined to not fall apart even though they lost their shit pretty fucking immediately after they teleported.
ashton saying they'll do whatever it takes to find their people again, fuck saving the world, was just absolute gold. ashton and laudna's motivations have never struck me as particularly martyr like so their single-minded focus on making sure the band is back together was so refreshing i love them so much, i can't wait for more rp moments between them.
LIAM O'BRIEN. YOU ARE INSANE SIR.
i need ashton and laudna to give orym ten thousand hugs and never let my little guy go holy shit he is at his wit's end. all those little moments of trauma flashbacks just running through his head was just *chefs kiss* thank you liam. i know orym said he doesn't have anyone but that pause... that pause was both heart breaking and also gives me room to hope that liam is cooking up a slow burn for the ages. (peep taliesin's face the entire time orym was talking to deni$e -- ashrym nation RISE UP)
i do really hope that orym and ashton have more moments together, especially considering the conversation they had on the skyship about orym not always being able to be "the good one". i hope orym reaches out, and hell, if not then i am BEGGING ashton to reach out cause i really think this group in particular has one of the most best subtle emotional connections for ashton and i just djsjdkdkdl I LOVE THEM AND I WANT MORE ANGST.

Ah yes ... so here we go ... revealing Imogen's connection indeed ... Keyleth: "But you're here to help?" Oh yes ...
So the Ruby Vanguard are OPENLY recruiting now? That can't be good ...
Orym: "I've been struggling with the blood in my eye for weeks now. I've never been so fucking angry!" Oof ...
Keyleth: "Sometimes it's just what you need, so don't let go of that anger. Learn how to use it."
Orym: "I promise you I'll give you every last breath to make this right."
Keyleth: "Together we'll rain the fury of every power in Exandria down on these ... shitheads."
Get hold of the toxin, reverse engineer an antidote? Smart, Chetney, smart.
Yeah, Keyleth never really had that much to do with the gods, generally.
"The Ascension and the Sealing". Oh yeah ... so cool ...
Letting the Voice of the Tempest rest, then ...
Laudna: "We dropped the airship." Leeta: "That was you? That was GREAT!!!" Yeah ... :3
Ah yes, finding out what happened after they all got shunted away at last ...
27 ... Whispers! Yay! What's Leeta hiding, Fearne?
Wait, MOLES? Really? Like another Bor'Dor situation? Hmmmm ...
Thollo? Okay ...
The Scattered War of Gwessar? Intriguing ... so the Grey Valley is ... a creepy, fucked up place ... sounds about right. And apparently this is the SAFEST place for them go look for the flower? Ye gods ...
Liam: "We all know what you WANT to hear, Travis Willingham." XD
The Hishari helmet? Intriguing ... oh, here we go, then ... so Ashton COULD finally get some answers after this? Cool ...
So, going to meet Orym's mum ... sweet ...
Home sweet home! Cottagecore? Cute! :3
Awwwwwwwww ... she's the sweetest mum ever, hi Alma! Oh yeah, she DOES know Fearne already. And she's definitely fascinated by FCG ...
Oh yeah, Laudna does love her some biscuits ...
Oh, intriguing, the possibility that Chetney might hit on Alma ... XD
Such a lovely cosy place, I love it ...
Muffins? Really? Cool ...
No stealing stuff, Fearne. "I would never steal from a mother." Okay then ...
Yum! Freshly baked goodies! Yay!
Alma: "I worry about you, Orym. You carry a lot of weight on your face."
Whoa ... the Ashari have means to delay births to prevent babies from becoming Ruidusborn? Intriguing ...
Alma:"Just don't be a hero if you don't have to." Orym: "I just do what I have to, mom."
So Orym was a truly TINY baby? I mean OF COURSE he would have been ... awwww, the cavalcade of baby memento-based embarrassment for Orym, I love it ... XD
Recipes to go for FCG? Adorable ...
Chetney's carved a little wooden Orym for her? That's so cute ... is this Chet flirting? Wait ... Orym ACTUALLY HAD C-POP toys when he was little? Oh my gods ...
Orym: "Did you invent Optimus Prime?" Chetney: "I killed him, too." LOL
FCG trying to work out if Orym looks a little like Chetney ... 4 perception roll? Yeah ...
To Torth's shop for fresh armour, now ...
Sage and herbs in the metal AS IT'S BEING TEMPERED?!!! Intriguing ...
Old Fanny Z? Hmmmm ...
Oh, this place looks FASCINATING ... oh, and Fanny is too ... wow ... oh yeah, she is just FABULOUS, definitely ... XD
Fanny: "Anti-hero chic?" Oh yes ... that's perfect Ashton, definitely ...
Marisha: "Whitestone's for lovers, Zephrah's for fuckers." LOL
Meanwhile Laudna's flying Pate on a string like a kite. Pate: "Hey, there's a big hawk up here, circling! I think he wants to be friends!" O.O
Big-ass backpack? Okay ... so they need to fill THIS with the flowers ...
Oh boy ... a shit ton of healing potions ... NEVER a good sign of things to come ...
Whoa ... so Orym's fighting style is like THE regimental style of Zephrah? That's so cool ...
Maeve can do the tree portal thing too? That's so cool!
Matt: "And we're gonna go to break!"
Oh, so they're actually Blue Perennum flowers? Ah ... so basically Matt dug his own grave there ...
Liam: "I'm just glad we don't have to find some Taintweed." Snort ...
Always nice to get to see a pair of Jesters drawing little cartoon dicks in the air ... XD
Back to the game ... and the Grey Valley ... hmmmmm ...
The smell of ash and BURNED FAT?!!! That's not, like, foreboding at all ...
The whole place is COMPLETELY monochrome ... fascinating ... in a really creepy way ...
Perception check for blue flowers ... 30? Fucking hell Orym ... no joy, though. Not here ...
FCG doing a Divination spell on the inside of Orym's shield to find the way from the Changebringer ... oh ... is it working? Intriguing ... cool, another genuine divine visitation ... ooooooh ... and a marker? Cool ... go west, young man!
Chetney trying to get a read on the burned fat smell ... what ... a Religion check? Hmmmm ... oh, it's a smell of demons? Oh shit ... not great ...
Hello again, Pate ... he turns invisible and goes looking for possible demons and blue flowers ...
Single file, to hide their numbers ... and Pass Without A Trace? Okay ... sneaky sneaky ...
Lightning split trees? Yeesh ...
Bits of tarnished metal? Hmmmm ... that's suspicious ... not fresh, at least, but ...
So it's a helmet ... with a skull still in it? Not good ...
Nothing inherently fancy about any of it ...
Pate sees fuck all ... with a Nat 1 ... oof ...
FCG casts Death Ward on Orym in order to make sure they can get him back to his mum ...
Something's flying in ... TWO somethings, in fact ... bug and black ... black SMOKE?!!! Oh hell ... they don't spot thd party, but ... creepy ...
Chetney climbing a big rock to get a look round ...
Smells like a volcano? Lovely ... that's not a good sign ... and part of the forest is smoking ... great ...
Everybody's doing Pate impressions while Matt looks stuff up ... it's adorable. XD
Oh, the TREES are smoking? Hmmmm ...
FCG casts Owl's Wisdom on Fearne? Intriguing ...
Orange glow under the tree bark? Hmmmm ... FCG casts Detect Thoughts ... nothing in particular ...
Some kind of potential damage site? Hmmmm ...
An ash MARSH?!!! Seriously? Urgh ... hard going now ... no surprise there ...
Back onto solid ground without incident ... phew ... or not ... some kind of ancient battlefield now ... lovely ...
Something got badly charred here ... and there's some kind of dark crater? Hmmm ... AND there are flowers ... okay ... is it a trap?
Bollocks ... turns out Pate is colourblind ... THAT'S not exactly useful for finding the flowers ...
Pate land on the bush ... and falls into it. "They're thorny!"
Chetney goes in to try and see what's what ... and starts doing an English accent when he finds himself interacting with Pate.
So THESE are the flowers ... BINGO!!! Chetney starts cutting blooms, also casts Hunter's Bane just in case ... and he gets a little prickle of SOMETHING ... hmmmm ...
Oh fuck ... some of the bodies start moving ... great, it's undead time ... and there's something else there too ...
Okay, this thing definitely SOUNDS like a demon ...
Chetney pretends he doesn't actually see this thing znd starts to nonchalantly walk away ... yeah, this thing ain't convinced at all ...
Oh yeah ... "Roll initiative." HERE WE GO!!!
Battlemap time! Wow, that shit is BLEAK!!!
Top of the round, then ...
Here come the undead! Aaaaaaaah! Chetney's under attack ... crap, and he is now GRAPPLED ... oh shit, they're Ashari! It's some of the missing warriors!
Chetney: "Nuke us!" FCG: "I'm a healer! I don't Nuke!" Chetney: "Bring the falling fire!"
FCG casts Compulsion and they both FAIL!!! Now they're dragging Chetney through the nasty ashen mud ...
Imogen's up ... Laura has a very dubious plan ... Watery Sphere? Interesting ... she tries it on the demon ... a strength save? 17 plus more ... nuts ... then she uses her Telekinetic Shove to try snd free Chetney ... nope, it's like FREAKISHLY strong ...
The demon just SINKS INTO THE GROUND ... andnow it's FUCKING CLOSE to them all ... CRAAAAAAAP!!! A Soul Rend Vortex? WHAT THE FUCK?!!!
38 points of Necrotic damage to Orym and FCG, 19 to Fearne ... ouch!
Ashton RAGES!!! YEAH!!! Yeah, he's making some crazy gravitational wave as he charges the thing ... Density Well? So cool ... BOOM!!! 18 points of bludgeoning damage AND it's knocked prone ... AND some fire damage? 8 points! Nice .. but it's fiendish, so not yhat much of zn effect ... another attack ... another 19 points of damage because it's BIGGER than he is? Awesome ...
Orym performs a Disarming Attack to free Chetney ... yes! Success! AND 11 damage on the undead! Second hit ... only 8 points more? Not so good ...
Oh man ... Orym KNEW this guy? Crap ...
Chetney wolfs out ... he charges and while taking damage from the undead (8 Necrotic) as he moves away, inflicts LESS damage on the demon within ice attack than he'd like ... hmmm ... how CAN they kill this thing?
Fearne speaks Infernal? Of course she does ... "Stop it!" And here comes Mister ...
Laudna casts Mirror Image on herself, then ... oh man, that is HORRIFYING ... oh! Hey! It's the wolf! Laura is DEEPLY impressed! Matt: "That's your girlfriend!"
Here we go ... the wolf attacks the demon ... 14 piercing damage! Nice!
Oh crap ... now there are creepy shadow wraiths coming out of the marsh... great ...
A TOTAL MISS on Imogen! Phew ... now Ashton ... Erratic Defence? What is THAT?!!! Cuts it down to 11 points of Necrotic damage, but Fearne's fancy aura softens it ... now he's just chucking one of the wraiths around ...
An attack on FCG ... but Silvery Barbs from Laudna AND Fearne's spell saves the day AGAIN!!!
Undead longbow attack? Really? Both miss, though ... but the other one hits Orym with its sword ... crap!
Orym strikes back HARD!!! 15 points of damage! Nice ...
Spiritual Weapon from FCG ... a chainsaw? Really? Crazy ... attack on the undead! 7 points of radiant damage? Hmmm ... not THAT impressive ...
Imogen tries to get the Watery Sphere to actually DO SOMETHING this time ... okay, that's more like it ... ooh ... 4th Level Lightning Bolt AND it's Quickened by Ashton? Wow ... double hit INCLUDING the demon ... okay ... NINE D6 OF DAMAGE?!!! Fucking hell ... 24 points ... wow ...
Demon boy VANISHES again and reappears in front of Fearne? NO!!! Shit ... 10 slashing damage PLUS 13 Necrotic? Oof ... second attack CRITS ... 13 slashing and 21 Necrotic? AAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!! Damn, that hurts ...
Soul Rend? Crap ... EVERYBODY but FCG has to save ... oh man, this is all round SO BAD ... pain all round, but SOMEHOW Fearne still maintains her concentration ...
Ashton hits HARD on one of the wraiths ... POW!!!
Orym jumps over Mister and charges in to pull Bait and Switch on Fearne, then attacks the demon! POW!!! 18 points of damage all round! Oh shit ... another Ashari inside the demon? Not good ...
Chetney tries to just JUMP attack the demon ... in the end just GRAPPLES it ... okay ... second attack then ... still not that heavy with the ice damage ... hmmm ...
Fearne casts Daylight right on its chest ... oh shit! Oh, and that HURTS IT BAD!!! Nice! AND it repels EVERYTHING!!! Okay, then!
Mister chucks some flaming shit! XD 7 points of damage ... meh ...
FORM OF DREAD!!! YES!!! Always awesome ... Laudna sends Pate into the Watery Sphere and then twins a Shocking Grasp through him ... NAT 20!!! Oh shit! Pate: "Special delivery!" She electrocutes the guy ... and gets the HDYWTDT!!! Nice ... oh shit ... TWO kills? Way to go, dead girl!
Now the wolf attacks the demon again ... 11 damage! Sweet!
Undead attack on Fearne! Crap ... Laudna casts Silvery Barbs, but it still hits ... 12 slashing damage! Double crap ... and she's unconscious! NO!!!
FCG casts Mass Cure Wounds! Phew! 16 points all round! Nice! Fearne's back up!
Buzzsaw attack from FCG! Oh, Divine Strike? No ... ALMOST killed that zombie ...
Imogen chucks a 4th Level Witchbolt at the demon ... 42 points of damage ... and she gets the HDYWTDT!!! YESSSSSSS!!! Oh yeah, she full on LIGHTS THIS FUCKER UP!!! Oh yeah, the demon is TOAST.
For the sake of brevity, Matt lets the rest of the thralls die ... yeah, seems fitting ...
Orym finds a fading spirit within the demon's body ... oh man ... it's tragic, but bittersweet ... at least he gets to put her to rest in the end.
Ah, they at least found enough flowers before they died to fill a 3rd of the satchel ... cool. Meanwhile Orym's looking for personal effects, then performs last rites in the Ashari manner.
Moody, mournful wind ... hmmm ...
Matt: "And that's where we're gonna end the night."
All round, EVERYBODY is in awe of Ashley saving the day so it wasn't a TPK ...

Okay yea, fuck it, watching 34 right now because sleep is for nerds and Matt decided to leave off on something of the world's worst cliffhanger (that's not necessarily true, but it kinda feels like it)
WHY did Matt start this with FCG??? boy am I concerned
Memories of Aeor?!??!?!?????
A MAN YOU FEAR?????? oh no
Chetney?!?!?!
why is he going down the list......
lmao "wayward romances in your youth"
Why are there names......
Also I'm suspicious that this is because Imogen let go, this is the hint that they're all ruidis born, because I think thats the direction this campaign was going to go
Ashton... whooo boy... yea, I think this is probably pointing towards ruidis born (from a storytelling perspective, in world I understand that they would have difficulty just guessing they are all ruidis born yk)
Some kind of ritual....
Beyond the edge of death....... wow
WAIT YEA. the whole cast is there, even the ones who are dead dead....... huh
Not the dinner with the Briarwoods...... :/ God I hate Delilah
Good lord. oopsies. we just disappeared a bunch of dirt and shit
I do really love how invested they get in the game
oops there goes Laudna
"worry not Laudna, death is but a waiting game" oh my god
Knowing what happens lessens the impact for me, in a good way, it really helps with the anxiety, but having them so much with helping the stakes feel real.
I can get safely invested with them being so invested even if I know the result. its nice
"How do I know they're dead" asking the right questions
A revivify cockring omg
When the so many people die that initative starts to go at the normal speed. god thats so morbid
Holy shit Sam. not the exact 10 on the revivify ritual dear GOD
Fearne, the first person to when presented with a Revivify goes "what else" what a Fearne move... I love her, I love Ashley
oh my god not the slight action economy shuffling
rollies to see who lives good Gods
Liam is just depressed.......
It's so heartbreaking to see Fearne work through how to save her friends, and FCG having to work her through who is dead
"Who votes for Orym" noooooooo lmao
Are they actually about to flip a coin for who to rez........?
This has such a different vibe to the Molly death... I can't really put my finger on why? maybe because when molly died there were no healers
Will 馃槩
Orym's gonna be a wreck after this huh.
But the acting :'(
Marisha silently packing up.... then asking Matt is she should leave 馃槩馃槩馃槩
Oh. Imogen thinks its her fault.
I do like that Matt is calling an early break so the players can go cry in each others arms for a moment.
aaaaaand popsicle stick Laura is waaaay too cheery
good god after all that death they go straight to torture
What a macabre scene, Imogen grieving the death of Laudna as everyone else is torturing information out of Treshi
Grey fluid...... dunamancy.... GOD I hate Ludinus
WAIT jesus did Otohan just cast 4 resonant Echoes?!?!?!?
God its so surreal to hear them talking about consulting Delilah like its not the worst idea ever.
"Imogen, do you think someone needs to take care of Pat茅 and Sashimi?" oh my god Sam you don't need to break my heart again!
I do really love how Fjord seems to have opened up the relationship floodgates for Travis, I like how unabashedly horny he is.
I love when Caleb came out to talk about magic
TWO fragments of possibility?!?!? science has been scienced
not the grog meatlocker of holding!! (honestly...... I've been wondering what all was in that )
He added a FEAT?!?!?!?!
A toolbox lmaoooooo God Sam, never change.
"And not hide money from each other......."
"I saw my parents" "I thought you were an orphan" "I'm going to give you 10 seconds to figure that out" pure gold lmao
Captain Xandis!!!!! I forgot how much I loved them!!!!
The spell definitely headed something off at the pass, good god. Matt you are trying to kill someone!!!!
I love that Travis still counts for Laura's Sending.
And that airship pickup was really one for the highlight reel.

So, that assassin that Orym stabbed through the heart, only to watch them disintegrate?
That was the assassin who'd just killed his husband, wasn't it?

God, can you just imagine how smug and amused Ashton would be realising someone has a crush on him?? And in comparison Dorian would get even more flustered by it than the person crushing on him???? My boys I love them :')
My favessss 馃グ I find it so hard to narrow down what I want in a partner omg. These two genasi are so different and yet I'm in love with both. I might make a "guess my type" post soon, let y'all help me XD
Happy Valentine's Day, my loves 馃挄 Whether you're happily single, ready to mingle, in a relationship or spending the day with friends, I wish you all clear skin, clear skies, and clear communication 馃挒

Realising Reader Has A Crush
Ashton
Despite being so smug, Ashton was actually a bit slow with realising you had a crush on him. They genuinely thought you guys were just really close friends. Buddies. Amigos. Ride or dies.
And they were chill with that, but one day, and probably at the most inconvenient moment, it all just made sense his opalescent skull.
Ashton had fallen flat on their ass after a fight, so you held out a hand for him to take, helping them stand. He must've tugged a little too hard because in a blink of an eye, you guys clumsily stood with your chests pressed against each other and noses barely touching.
And they noted the way your body language stiffened, and how your eyes flitted from them to literally anywhere else, and then it all just clicked. You watched a slow smirk spread across Ashton's face, and you knew that there was no going back now.
Such a tease. Oh my gosh, you might be crushing on him, but sometimes you wanna just wipe that knowing smile off of their face. Gives you the slyest looks from across the table when the party are sharing drinks, making your face warm and heart flutter.
And he knows this and abuses this newfound 'power' they have over you. Pulls you into their side when introducing the party to new allies and such, leans in close when you're sharing info with the group, gives you pecks on your cheek to see you squirm etc etc~
Wants to hear it from you that you have a crush on him and boy oh boy, if you wait it out for ages before confessing there's just gonna be more teasing until Ashton has decided enough is enough
Literally dips you in the middle of a brawl, one strong arm supporting your back in a way that you arch into them, the other cradling your face so that he s m o o c h e s you, and damn him, you can feel that same smirk that's been taunting you for ages.
And the bandits you guys were fighting pause like "o h, are we- are we interrupting y'all?"
Will pull away and promptly continue to break shit and bonk your enemies, leaving you high and dry, trying to recover from the kiss, but damn they do look hot doing what they do best 馃挌
Dorian
To be honest, he'd picked up on your crush fairly easy. Your soft, lingering touches and broader smiles directed at him... Anyone in the party could tell you were infatuated.
But sweet blue man was in complete denial, because what could you ever see in him pfffft, despite all the evidence of your romantic feelings for him were so obviously there.
But he didn't trust his judgement. He didn't want to assume you held him in that regard, in a romantic light. Even when Fearne oh so clearly spelt it out for him and Orym suggested that he try talk to you about it, he still wasn't convinced that he should confront you.
He didn't want to get his hopes up. Not with you. So when you approached him, his mind was running a mile a minute because it was too good to be true that this was actually happening. You stand before him, heart bare and vulnerable, and Dorian still can't believe his ears.
He tries to convince you that you are mistaken, holding his hands out to you in a defensive stance while chuckling nervously. He nearly stumbles as he backs away from you, and yet you continue to close the distance.
Bless this man. Take his face into your hands and cradle him as if he's as fragile as glass. You lean in until your foreheads gently press against each other. You can feel warmth radiating from him, his skin scalding to the touch. His cheeks flush as he looks away at something, anything, other than your face.
Tell him that you love him.
Simple as that.
As a bard, he lives and breathes poetry and flowery phrases. Give him reality, not fantasies that belong in songs, and he'll melt in your touch, a soft smile threatening his lips. He manages a hesitant laugh, and your voice joins him. It eases his nerves, despite his heart hammering in his chest.
He raises your knuckles to his mouth and he kisses them, and once he's done just please wrap your arms his neck and kiss him for real because wow this yearning is so darn sweet it hurts, and his eyes get a little glazed over and he insists he's not crying (okay maybe just a little), but he's grinning from ear to ear. And you're tempted to wipe his tears away and kiss that smile off his face.
So you do 馃挋

Critical Role Campaign 3 Episode 34
It's Thursday Night. On a Monday. Again. Gods help us this time, please ...
A Nord VPN sponsorship ad, and Ashley's being a spectacular little shit while making a balloon sword ... wow. She also does a MUCH better job than Sam, surprisingly.
Fuck me I'm SOOOOOO nervous right now.
Matt (grinning evilly): "So, when last we left off --" Travis: "Oh shut up!" Ashley: "Asshole!"
Matt: "Fresh Cut Grass ..." Sam: "But I'm just ... just a little boy!"
Ooooooh! FCG flashback! Oooooooh! Chetney flashback! And some LADIES!!! Oh ... okay, that werewolf thing doesn't make me too comfortable right now ...
Wait, Ashton's a HALF-ELF?!!! Did I miss something in his backstory?
Oh shit! The fucking Briarwoods! NOOOOOOO!!! Fuck! Please tell me Laudna's not full on POSSESSED right now ...
Awwwwww! Imogen's mum! Shit! Otohan! Evil bitch! Stop with the seduction thing! Imogen, listen to your mother! RUUUUUUNNNN!!!!
Yeah! Fuck her up, Imogen!
Whoa that storm REALLY made a fucking mess ... wait ... oh fuck! Laudna's stoll dying?
No, Marisha, not the Ruidus dice! AAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!! NATURAL 1?!!!
Oh gods ... she's really dead? What?
So FCG really knows they're all dead, then? Gods ... so now Sam has to do crucial game math to help ... this is not good.
Yeah, if Sam holds that action then somebody REALLY dies. I mean SOMEBODY'S gonna die anyway, but ... oh fuck ...
Oof ... sexy Chetney ... not the time, Travis!
"Welcome back, Schrodinger. "
BITE ORYM?!!! Seriously?
Laudna's not there anymore, Imogen. Meanwhile Travis does an Ed Harris-in-The-Abyss.
Oh shit! Treshi! Good point! COCK RING?!!!
Initiative going FAST!!!
Oof ... so Revivify doesn't just work automatically? COME ON!!!
Bring Fearne back, PLEASE!!!
Oh man ... Sam, please roll well ...
10? Is that good or bad?
Choices, choices ... YES!!!! She lives! Thank fuck for that ...
Fearne: "How's everybody doing?" FCG: "BAD!!!" Fearne: "Okay."
Who, seriously? SECONDS?!!!
Ashton's gonna give up a BIG FAVOUR to Jianna ... oof ...
Dash, Chetney! Dash!
Oh gods what can Imogen even do for Laudna? What? SERIOUSLY?!!! IMOGEN NO!!!
Fearne: "What do you mean, Orym's dead?"
DOES SHE have a diamond?
Holy shit, Fearne is PANICKING!!!
Oh gods everybody's in the wrong place and too far apart snd there's no time and I AM FREAKING OUT HERE!!! HELP THEM SOMEBODY!!!
Imogen: "DON'T DRAG HER!!!" Ashton: "I'm not gonna drag her like a fucking ragdoll!"
Wow, Laura's getting SO SNIPPY about this!
Yeah, the whole time Liam is just SITTING HERE and SUFFERING!!! The nightmare of bring a spectator right now.
DAMN IT!!! WHO HAS THE DIAMONDS?!!!
Fearne doesn't know who to choose, this is Sophie's Choice!
The darkest rollies of all time ...
"Who votes for Orym?" Oh my gods ... hysterically desperate laughter ensues.
The god-coin ...
Marisha's hoodie ... SERIOUSLY?!!!
Imogen messages Delilah ... "Get your ass down here and BRING HER BACK!!!"
It's Orym. Oh gods, Laudna ... please help our dead lady get back somehow please ...
Okay Fearne, bring or sweet wee man back. PLEASE.
17 ... oh fuck ... that's ... yes, that's SO GOOD.
Oh fuck ... Orym sees Will. And he wants to stay but he hears Fearne ... gods, this hurts so much ...
I'm trying to type through my tears right now because Matt an Liam ate breaking my heart ... but ORYM'S BACK!!!
Fuck ... they can't do anything to bring Laudna back and MARISHA IS LEAVING THE STUDIO!!!
Treshi is alive, at least. But HE can't do anything. BACK IN THE HOLE, BITCH!!!
Imogen's echoing her thoughts to everybody and it's just "I'M SORRY" over and over again! Jesus Christ ...
Don't put her in the hole with that prick. Just GET OUT OF THERE before those arseholes come out.
Early break and everybody's just SHELL-SHOCKED right now ...
So Fearne's still a klepto, at least she's not COMPLETELY off her game right now.
Oh ... stealth rolls ... argh ...
Back to Imahara Joe's place ...
Nearly suffocated Treshi again. Just in time.
No ... looks like they're safe. Crazy high rolls, guys.
Joe: "What am I in right now?" Deep shit, Joe.
Down in a hole, feeling so small ...
Joe offers his staff hazard pay ... as you should, Joe. As you should.
FCG anxiety eating bolts like popcorn.
Treshi spills the beans ... Ashton punches him. Okay ...
23 on on insight check ... Ashley gets a whisper and Sam forgets who to plug.
FCG tries to intimidate Treshi with his saw, Sam rolls a shit intimidation check and the saw jams ...
Whoa ... Orym got SUPER intimidating there. 23? SERIOUSLY?!!! Wee man is TERRIFYING ...
Another whisper for Laura! Sam loses the page so Travis does the plug instead.
"LAUDNA IS DEAD." For such s sad diary entry that shit was weirdly funny ...
So what exactly ARE these potions? And WHAT'S IN THE BOX?!!!
Laura: "I've just got Laudna's head in my lap." Yeah, Imogen's not gonna be any good to ANYBODY right now.
Oooooooooh ... so that's the same shit that's in Otohan's weird backpack thingy. "Poop soldiers." Oh dear ...
Oh, a short rest ... yeah, they sure need one of THOSE.
Scary smell? Hmmmmm ...
Check the box for traps, Chet. 24. It's trapped. Let's wait until we have more hit points, shall we?
Anything metal will set it off. Chetney: "Good thing I'm a master of WOOD." And how does THAT help right now, Travis? Do tell? Matt is skeptical.
Warn Eshteross. Fix Laudna. Get the hell out of there. Quite the to-do list ...
Morri? Really? Is she an option?
Whoa ... take Laudna to WHITESTONE?!!!
Yes! Keyleth! That's the ticket! Do that!
What's even to discuss? C'mon, Keyleth would totally help, especially for Orym, right?
Whoa ... Imogen telekinetically dead-puppeting Pate is just ... wrong ...
Chetney makes a PERFECT replica of his thieves' tools out of mahogany.
Imogen trying to get all her sorcery points back on a short rest: "Fuck me running! Only on a LONG rest!"
Fearne flicks Chetney's nipple to give him guidance ... he opens the lock without incident.
Residuum? Whoa ...
Laura: "Are you gonna snort it?" Chetney: "I'm just gonna do a number."
Whoa ... Chetney is now high as a kite.
Orym: "This SHOULDN'T BE HERE."
Disarm the box or just take the residuum separately? This stuff is potentially volatile ...
No! DO NOT put it in FCG!!!
Joe covers their arses by building a shitty lead box to order. That's definitely worth 300 gold.
A Potion of Possibility ... oooh, that sounds pretty awesome actually. They have TWO OF THEM!!!
Wood can't hurt Chetney!
What's the password? Chetney: "Uh ... grundle!" Ashton: "That might be it, I have no idea."
Super high roll, the box is badly lo ked so he just carves it open without bothering with the lock ... SIX MORE POTIONS!!! Yeah, that's enough for EVERYBODY!!!
Sam: "Laura's keeping a second inventory list because SHE DOESN'T TRUST Ashley Johnson!" Ashley, talking about Fearne: "I don't want to because I am a scatterbrained person."
Cock-ring of Revivification take 2 ...
Ashton starts turning Laudna into a mummy with bandages to keep her preserved for longer.
Oh, the Shifting Face statue! Hello again!
As he's on watch ... Orym thinking about how what Imogen's going through reminds him of hid own loss ... oh man ...
Oh shit ... who's up there? Okay ... Joe has to bluff his way out of this ... everybody HIDE!!!
Everybody's hiding in the tunnel now ... no. Seriously, no Dancing Lights!
Oh ... okay ... looks like that worked ...
Imogen uses Open Mind to see if there are any thoughts on the other side of the door ... wow, that is a BOSS MOVE, Laura! Success ... nothing there. Phew ...
Chetney opens the door ... and let's go the fart he's been holding onto.
FCG watches Chetney through his whole watch spining his saw while contemplating the fight at the start of the day (weeks back now, it seems) ...
Imogen's FEATS?!!! Sneaky sneaky ...
FCG apologises for the fight by ... SAM GIVING TRAVIS A TOOLBOX FOR CHETNEY'S TOOLS!!!
Fearne has a point, they need to talk about what Imogen did in that battle ...
Yeah, Imogen is dealing with A LOT right now ... whoa, so that was a proper flashback for her? Otohan WAS there?
Whoa ... Ashton saw his PARENTS?!!! So THAT was real too ... the armour he stole back in the museum is a serious clue? Ooooooh ...
Wow, that armour looks pretty sweet ...
Orym recognises the armour ... this is Hishari stuff, apparently. Sounds heavy ...
Ashton's remembering stuff ... Sam sneezes. Ashley (at Sam): "Stop it!" (It's back! XD)
Imogen calls the airship. Oh man ... I love hearing Matt do that accent again, I'd quite forgotten.
Yeah, an Orym hug is JUST what the doctor ordered. Imogen, honey, it's not on you, that shit was just fucked to begin with.
Good point ... what even ARE those marks on Imogen's arms?
That's true, now we KNOW that Imogen is a BADASS. It's a good thing ... hopefully ...
Nearly suffocating Treshi has become Ashton's new favourite game.
A pinch of salt? Oh! Gentle Repose. Cool. Laudna is good for 10 days? Nice ...
Imogen messages Eshteross ... he doesn't know anything that can help Laudna right now. THEN they remember he's in danger, so FCG has to send one too ... "You in danger, girl!" XD
Eshteross prepares to defend himself like a badass. Cue several Schwarzenegger impressions ...
Chetney makes FCG an emotional clock to indicate his mood just in case ... it's deeply weird ...
"Is there one here for eye rolls?" Liam: "The doomsday clock is a concern."
Imogen: "How much money do you have left, Chetney?" Chetney: "Well I can't swim in it anymore."
So Joe wants them gone, and it's understandable, but he is clearly fond of them. It's quite sweet, really.
Ashton asks Joe to look out for some of the other Greymoore kids for him ... ooh, backstory ...
Not the best group stealth check, but ... phew, they made it. Oh, wait ... crawlers ... is this a problem?
Run and grab! Run and grab!
Almost everybody gets good rolls ... Imogen hits the stragglers with a Fly spell. Chetney FLOATS!!! Chetney: "What ... devilry?" Chetney thinks HE'S the one doing it.
YES!!! They're all on board! Phew ...
Ho boy ... good place to end the session ...
"We lost one, guys!" Yeah ... tell me about it, Sam. Please let this be something that can be fixed ...
