feb, june and oct for the cr end of year ask meme?

February - What is your favorite post-finale headcanon for campaign 2? If you haven’t watched C2, what is your favorite pre-stream headcanon for campaign 3? (Yes, you may answer both)

I recently rewatched that Jester Sending video again and got hit with the feels at the last sending, so I'm gonna opt for: Jester regularly Sending to everyone in the M9, that closeness and love, and the M9 ladies all having slumber parties whenever Jester is on land. Gossiping, jewelry making, clay eating, probably explosions courtesy of Veth. <3

edit: for anyone who wants a rambly, self indulgent, badly edited fic about this by yours truly, here ya go!

For C3, I've seen fics about the EXU party accompanying Orym back to his hometown when Keyleth summoned him, and being absolute menaces who also love their halfling, and I want so badly for that to be true.

June - Which new player character concept surprised you the most this year? (in any campaign)

Imogen and Ashton character design both genius and fascinating. But in terms of surprise- probably Laudna? Both in the 1- I wasnt expecting such an explicit callback to previous campaigns, 2- "consequences of previous campaigns" is genius but even then my first thought would have probably been something wrt Rumblecusp. Also. Shes dead!! thats wild!!!!

Also both the he/theys have some wild shit going on. Gravity rock?? Robit???? its an exciting time.

October - Which CR-related joke or funny moment will stick with you from this year?

Oh choosing just one is hard. Dammit. To make this easier for me: I’m gonna eliminate some of the more recent ones because I gotta see if they stand the test of time (so, Nancy, Bertrand GPS, “NO ONE HAS STABBED ME UP UNTIL THIS MOMENT” and “don’t get on my ass about it”). Long running jokes: “makinmyway” has thoroughly invaded my brain. I’m also eliminating Sam’s ads on account of, is that funny or is that HORROR (I think about the Eldermancy ad more than i should). 

I think, this is within the last year: Marisha’s delivery of “Sorry babe, I gotta handle these ninjas” makes me grin every time I think about it, even now. May we all have a date someday where we get to use that line.
