I finally saw that episode…

I feel so numb.

I didn’t run out of the room,

I just sat there, awe-struck.

nothing is worse than watching something and genuinely enjoying it and how they changed things and then seeing how other people like hate it like okay fuck me i guess i guess i won't be sharing any opinions just cus im gonna get dismembered for it

It occurred to me that while they were moaning into their microphones they also had to imagine what their characters would sound like when they cum and honestly I wouldn't wish that on any DnD player.

Just rewatched episode 12 of season 3 to see if I remembered things correctly and I did.

The Matron says that they honor the transition of souls into the afterlife and don't tamper with it, even if torment awaits in the afterlife the soul goes to. When Vax'ildan insists that Percy's soul should be saved because he sees being trapped by Orthax as a violation against the usual transition the Matron warns Vax'ildan that trying to bring a soul back will only bring sorrow and it will have dire consequences.

She also refuses to tell him how to bring the soul back, but she has alluded that it is possible by warning of the consequences. Ergo, the mark on Vax's wrist is not a punishment from the Matron of Ravens, it is just an effect of bringing back a soul that had passed on. Orthax is the one claiming that the Matron will punish Vax for going against her, and I would not trust the word of a demon who is invested in stopping the Matron's champion from stealing his most precious soul.

I'm not too surprised by people confusing the Matron's neutral stance on death as malicious though, or her supposedly punishing her champion for going against her wishes/edicts, because people are so used to see death as an antagonistic force - but her exact words do show that neither of that is the case. Vax was informed about the consequences of bringing Percy's soul back, and he did it anyway knowing there would be a cost. Which, of course he does, because he loves his family and would do almost anything to give them happiness.

taliesin admitting gwen is percy's favorite hurts me in a very eldest daughter kind of way because like.

vesper elaina was probably heralded as like "the future of whitestone" and the sign that whitestone was set to grow and propser after the briarwoods and after the chroma conclave and after vecna

literally her uncle says "the de rolo family is born anew" during the wedding oneshot and she probably has to carry that mantle as a child because even if her parents don't force that on her or remind her of all the things she is, she's still going to hear from the people of whitestone AND even if somehow she doesn't hear it openly, she is going to be well aware that her parents are heroes and famous and then the twins (wolfe and leona) are born and her mother was a twin, so then that's a little like thorn that she probably carries with her, especially when they both become invested in the hunt like their mother (which was shown when the Hells first went to Whitestone) and then her next sibling not only is named after her uncle but has a bear just like their mother which just leaves percy as someone she can feel close to and similar to and that goes on for about two decades until gwen is born and then gwen becomes percy's favorite and even though vesper is technically an adult it's like "oh. so I'm no one's favorite and never will be. but I still carry the burden of all the legacy."

there's also something to be said for the juxtaposition of potential aasimar Vesper due to the influence of Pelor during Vex's trial versus tiefling Gwen

season 3 spoilers

I went into these finale episodes thinking that I'd be so disappointed if they didn't do the Bard's Lament... but I'm not. Scanlan's story is so personal to me because I relate to him a lot. He feels very insecure, like his friends hate him and I feel that a lot, it's why he's my favourite.

I know we all love the Bard's Lament because it's amazing roleplay and a build up of finely hinted at small character details within the RP, but speaking as a person... If Scanlan feels the way he said, lashing out at his friends isn't how he deals with it. That's not a healthy thing to do, and isn't really fair on his friends either.

Scanlan feels similarly to how he does in the campaign. He says that now he finally feels like he matters (with Kaylie), and he says he likes himself better with her. This is what Campaign Scanlan felt as well, the difference is now he's not angry, humiliated in front of his daughter because he's covered in pudding, or only just came back from being dead. In other words, this is essentially just the Bard's Lament if he handled it healthily, and I love that. He's telling them how he feels without accusing them of hating him-- which is the better way of dealing with it.

On another note, I still feel like I can write this One-Shot about Scanlan, Kaylie and Marion. I'll just have to tweak a few things to line up, because ultimately, those feelings of insecurity aren't just going to go away now. Part of him feels like they hate him, but another part of him knows that they love him.

And, obviously, if you're disappointed then that's valid. But I don't think that this is objectively bad or anything. It's just different and that's okay.

And you know what the best part is? This might not even be the proper adaptation for it! Given that a season 4 has been greenlit, and in my opinion it's still clear that Scanlan has some insecurities regarding his friends, they could still pull it off at some point!
