#but frost and Gricko too

[luna-the-cretar]

I need to point something out about the Krew’s conversation with Torbek in episode 19.

Kremy—a man who likes to keep up appearances and appear larger than life, who relies on his silver tongue to spin his words into lies and half-truths—let himself appear as vulnerable to Torbek as Torbek was after the fight.

Because Kremy took off his coat and his tie (Richie made a point to both say that and make the motions as he was describing what Kremy was doing), before getting on Torbek’s level and seeing if there was anything on Torbek’s person that could explain what just happened, before noticing everything else that was off.

Kremy taking off his coat and tie is actually kinda significant, considering that shortly after, he (eventually) agrees to tell Torbek the truth about what happened, and even willingly spoke up to fill in what Gricko was missing in his explanation. Kremy was, metaphorically, letting his walls down and letting Torbek see him in a way that I imagine even Frost and Gricko rarely see (maybe outside of sleeping or bathing).

I mean, of course, Kremy immediately puts his walls back up the following day, and then acts like he is somehow above Torbek for the remainder of the season (which I hope he cuts it out early S2), but…it’s a step. It’s a step in the right direction for Kremy’s arc, and I can’t believe I didn’t even take too much of a notice in this—or anything the gator did—until I started rewatching the series and genuinely started looking into Kremy’s character more.

And of course Kremy’s whole interaction with Torbek this episode isn’t the only significant one, and i promise I’m not ignoring the others (in fact, I’m actually quite interested in the way Frost handled the combat, as well as the way he separated himself from Torbek afterwards, and it will be making me pay extra close attention to Frost for the next few episodes), I just…don’t hear a lot about Kremy in particular this episode.

I think it's actually really sweet that Gideon was the first to unabashedly accept Twig into the group.. at least that's how it felt after she sat at the table with them

[ubtendo]

Boy oh boy, finally got it finished

(Don't ask me why this looks like paper mario, I have no idea how that happend)

Separate version with info for each:

(If you find any typo, no you didn't (please tell me, I'll fix it tomorrow))

I'm on ep 39 of ouaw and I'd like to offer you Gideon holding Kremy back from feeding Frost to the shadow magic, because Frosty said that Kremy should just buy a new hat rather than get his back from the hag

AND JUST A SHOT OF THE ENTIRE PARTY TOO LMAO THIS IS PERFECT

Frosty is giggling, Gricko looking at Frost like "oh holy sht no way he said that" and Torbek's absolutely terrified (oohh frostyyy why would you sayyy thattt!!)

and this is just improv that Mace started like I'm sorry EVERYONE at that table ships coalecroux you can't tell me otherwise

Gricko and Kremy and/or Frost and Gideon hanging out? We don’t see their dynamics enough in or out of show imo!

Frost may not understand much of what Gideon says when he starts going on about engineering projects and ideas, but the passionate way in which he talks about it and the amount of knowledge he has despite not having a formal education on it is something Frost finds very interesting. He just lets him ramble on and listens intently.

When Frost and Gideon are away, Gricko will hang out with Kremy and they’ll just chat about anything. Or, rather, Gricko will aimlessly ramble on, and on SOME occasions, Kremy won’t entirely tune him out. Conversations about food in their different upbringings and cultures sometimes lead down strange paths.

ouaw doodle dump!!

Putting some guys in some fancy outfits

[jadecantcreate]

the guys as tiny little guys (ft. ten thousand yard stare gricko, huge-headed kremy, meditating frost looking like the “i do not see” image, and gideon side glancing)

came across the second picture on pinterest and i HAD to get this down before i inevitably forgot and the picture got buried in my infinite archive of photos

[pond-eringstuff]

Gricko was forcibly removed from the mcdonalds shortly after

[stereo-chromy]

Is this anything

ALSO WHO INFECTED THE WATER WITH BRIGGSBEK IN MY HOME‼️⁉️⁉️

[ouaw-facts-i-just-made-up]

Whenever the Krew settles down to actually hang up their adventuring days for good (or until something really funny happens), they each go get real actual jobs, if the carnival doesn't start back up that is.

Kremy opens his own restaurant. A casino would have been more fun but. Bad memories. Plus he really doesn't wanna be run out of this town, he *bought* a *house*. He's staying until it burns down, which is unfortunately likely when you live with a fire genasi. His restaurant is his little baby, much like the carnival (but much more legally done, to his dismay). It's actually quite popular.

Gideon likes doing more physical labor, and working with his hands. He briefly considered being a bodyguard for some uptight rich folk, but it felt like a slight betrayal to Kremy, as irrational as that is. He either lends a hand at a local farm or works at a machine/item repair shop. Who needs a dumb artificer when you have Gideon.

Gricko and Frost both start a little farm themselves. Nothing big, sort of like the kind you'd see in a backyard. They take odd jobs sometimes too, Gricko taking on the "help!! There's a big animal in a place we don't want them" jobs (mostly convincing the animal to move to a safer, less humanoid populated forest), and Frost does the ones that are more like your average "I need help repairing my item" or "can someone help me with my fucking taxes please I'm scared" jobs.

Torbek finds a job similar to Gideon's, though he mostly prefers the physical labor ones. Easier to learn, and he's used to helping with stuff around the carnival so he's great at it. He's just happy there's no possibility of falling off a really tall Ferris Wheel now

Hootsie gets to sit at home and chill. Preferably the home base is near a forest so she can go explore. Every once in a while she helps Gricko with his tasks, or helps Frost by being a rather large therapy dog for people who *really* hate taxes. She's enjoying life

start of another series <3

the worms got to me again and i was inspired by those Dungeon Meshi race swap charts, so here's the race swapped Krew!!! Also some super quick signature headcanons :3

Singles for each character coming soon!

[basket-of-loquats]

it's so interesting to me that frost says that being ridded of the joy that comes with his memory of gricko giving him hootsie's signal whistle is a relief. like you have someone who is taught (whether by the sorcerer enclave or by his own experience) that logic should supersede emotion all the time and that you cant have emotions bog you down. and then he meets gricko and gricko is his Friend, his Only friend, and he feels real true happiness for the first time in who knows how long except he's not supposed to feel that anymore. he's not supposed to feel joy like this, or affection, or whatever it is gricko makes him feel. and when he gets relieved of that emotion by surrendering the memory to be taken as the toll, it's relieving. idk it reminds me a lot of how like growing up queer and freaking out when you have a crush on someone of the same gender and then being like relieved if you lose feelings because oh thank god, i don't have to feel that conflict anymore, i can follow the "right" path, the one i'm supposed to

[crowliphale]

watching witchlight while i procrastinate the screenshot drawings but torbek and gricko just high-fived and called each other goblin bros. which is very cute and charming but my frostbek/grimmorning brain just said "hooly shit its two best friends who aren't dating but are unfathomably healthy about their shared girlfriend ohhh my god"

dynamics are shifting a little they just keep getting better and better

[ahhlehlehlehleh]

POV: you are on a call with me and you mention Gricko and Frost together

(credit to @choco-banana-crepe) POV: you are Kremy. I do not know their ship name, if anyone have any ideas or know please give it to me. (edit: GOT EM)

The fact that the Krew pretty much immediately accepted that Kremy just loves unicorns at the start of the campaign warms my little heart

Think about it. Everyone was just like “Oh! We didn’t know you loved unicorns Kremy! That’s so sweet!” and no one thought to stop and make fun of him for it. Like Gricko could have easily teased him or Frost could have made some dry yet cutting remark about it but no

They just got right on board with the fact that Kremy’s always had this deep seated love for unicorns and was too afraid to say anything until then

Kremy’s obviously embarrassed about his decelerations right at first but quickly starts saying he loves unicorns with his whole chest as they enter the Witchlight carnival like

In my headcanon, Kremy did indeed always have a love for unicorns deep down (cause even after they left the carnival, Kremy still loves unicorns) but wouldn’t ever say anything about it because god forbid he look soft or weak, but then his found family just immediately jumped on board with his love for the mythical creatures and he figured out “oh. This ain’t so bad. If they still respect me, then whatever else anyone thinks doesn’t matter” and happily declared it for anyone to hear
