#critical role matchup

[hymn-of-muse]

Hey I saw requests were open. Are you still doing matchups? If so would I be able to request one for critical role?

I'm a 5'4 girl with very straight and thin brown hair. I'm a bit on the leaner side but with some muscle from farming and martial arts.

I'm quite socially anxious and a general worrywart. I often seem stilted and overly formal in conversation as I suck at small talk unless I'm more comfortable with those people. When I'm in a familiar environment or with people I'm comfortable with I'm much louder and tend to ramble. I do enjoy talking and making shitty jokes. I'm a bit of a mum friend, practical and grounded. I enjoy any sort of physical affection ranging from hugs, to play fights, high fives and even light head butting. I also like being able to cook or buy food for others. I enjoy both reading, writing and love nature and animals of all kinds.

I'm bisexual with not much of a preference for gender.

Thank you!

hi! im sorry its taken me so long to get to this but yes! im still doing matchups!

sorry to everyone requesting critical role, ive only been assigning for c1&2 and left out 3 because i haven't caught up with it so i dont know enough about the ne cast of characters to assign for them ^^;

you sound like someone i'd be friends with

right away i think caleb or jester from c2

or

vex from c1

caleb- he's not the type to complain much over physical affection in fact hes shown to like it, even from small pda to other stuff. he wouldnt initiate it much but would probably hold your hand for reassurance and catch on quick to your anxiety in social situations. hes not too social himself so he'd ask if its okay to pull you aside so you guys can relax together in a corner and either ramble to each other about your interests or cuddle up with a book with frumpkin in your lap to help you calm down. wouldnt say it directly but would enjoy your humour, would also tell you he likes how small you are cuz its easier to cuddle you better. might get distracted staring at you during a fight or when youre engaging in something youre passionate about

jester- short buddies! will use any and all excuse to tease you and lift you up. she would absolutely join you in the kitchen if you let her. expect a lot of kisses if shes patching you up after a fight or vice versa, she thinks your worrying is very sweet and adorable. your humor matches so she'll not just join you she'll egg you on and keep it going. probably will adopt any animal with you if you ask all the phys touch and pda, she will squeeze you in a hug and braid your hair.

vex'ahlia- nonstop teasing. teases you for your height, your nerves etc whatever she can. subtle touches are her thing so she'll probably have an arm on or around you if youre close enough. if you get seriously worried or anxious about something she'll take you aside by the hand and help you calm down, she can be very convincing. she'll probably have you sit down with her and put your head in her lap so she can play with your hair till you feel better, maybe even put her feathers behind your hair after braiding it so you match. will hold your face and tease you for being cute trinket is now your best friend and will nudge you for headpats you guys get to tease vax together and vax will go from being skeptical of you and giving you the brother talk to eventually seeing you as family even. hes kinda protective of his sister and very scared of loosing her again but once he knows he can trust you and gets used to you and vex being that close you guys are buds and even sparing partners. vex encourages your humor and bugs you while youre cooking.

Ichi the Witch ch.13 thoughts

[You're As Cold As Ice]

(Topics: criticism - presentation, character analysis - Desscaras/Togeice/Ichi, thematic analysis - talent/philosophy, speculation - arc progression)

This week's chapter is meant almost solely as an introduction to Togeice as a character rather than just a plot device to give Ichi grief. To accomplish this, Nishi lists off all of Togeice's most notable accomplishments

Tell Don't Show

A child prodigy who developed Mantinel's security system, a beloved teacher, a seasoned Witch with 16 acquisitions to her name, and even an endorsement from Monigold to become the next head of Mantinel, Togeice sure sounds impressive!

Except...we still have no context for any of that. We don't know what it takes to run Mantinel or even how big of an organization it is, we don't know what the average number of acquisitions any given Witch has, or even how much weight Monigold's word has. We can infer a lot of that from the fact that Monigold is the head of such a politically important organization and that she's pointing to Togeice's record as evidence of her prowess, but without a frame of reference for any of this information, I'm not exactly blown away by any of it

Still, it's not like it's entirely lost on me or anything. Like I said, I can make inferences, and it's clear enough that Togeice is meant to be a big deal that I think we can take this chapter at face value, I just feel like this flavor of character introduction needs a little more prep work to get the full effect

All of that said, this chapter did help put a few things into perspective for me. In particular, what makes Desscaras the "Strongest Witch"

Might Doesn't Make Right

When asked if she would consider nominating Desscaras as the next leader of Mantinel, Monigold bluntly refuses the notion, citing her and other Witches' egotism as a disqualifying factor

Desscaras is clearly powerful, but she lacks discipline, foresight, cooperation, work ethic...she doesn't have a single quality that suggests she would know the first thing about being a leader or maintaining an organization. Under her leadership, at best Desscaras would allow Mantinel to fall into chaos due to her own negligence, and at worst she'd drive it into the ground herself with ill-conceived policies that would likely harm its reputation and relationships

Togeice, however, actually cares about Mantinel and its longevity and has the skills necessary to preserve it. She may not be physically capable of beating Desscaras in a fight, but she's far better equipped for a leadership role

This is yet another example of the cast's unique talents being highlighted, suggesting that this won't just be a theme surrounding Kumugi, but rather one that permeates the entire story. We'll have to keep an eye on how Nishi continues to develop it, but I'm starting to think that talent is going to be one of if not the foremost theme of the series

In fact, it's already being used to paint Togeice as the underdog in this competition

Bad Matchup

In shocking contrast to her fastidious nature, Togeice doesn't seem to have any battle sense, trying to brute-force her way to victory by blasting the entire area with ice instead of systematically searching for Kindake. Based on Kindake and Hisame's dialogue, this flashy and aggressive approach is pretty common for Witches, so it's possible that Togeice came into that habit naturally based on the nature of Magik battles, but going by what Monigold said, her style is unusually wanton even by Witch standards

Maybe she just doesn't have any respect for combat as an art form, or she's strong enough that such a straightforward approach has simply never failed her, but either way her detail-oriented style simply doesn't manifest in how she fights. While she is reducing Kindake's hiding spots, the only reason he's concerned about that is because it will make it easier for Ichi to find him, not because he seems to actually consider Togeice herself a threat

While I thought that her poor sense of direction would be what hampered her ability to track down Kindake, she's managed to circumvent that expectation by not even looking at all. She probably thinks she's bound to catch him eventually, but really he's just going to keep slipping through her attacks until he's cornered by Ichi

Everything is stacked against Togeice here, both despite her overwhelming capacity for force and because of her inability to apply her best talents to a situation that seems like it would perfectly complement them

Meanwhile, Ichi's hunting skills are not only completely appropriate to the situation, he's also proving more than capable of applying them as needed. The problem, though, is that he's being portrayed almost like a villain

Good is Not Nice

While it's almost certainly just for comedy, there's no denying that Ichi is chasing a small, cute, nearly defenseless critter with bloodlust in his eyes. His relentless pursuit of Kindake, who again hasn't actually violated Death for Death aside from simply saying he would kill people while throwing a tantrum, makes Ichi look pretty far from the heroic role that being the protagonist would usually fill

I think this is going to help flesh out the nuance of Ichi's character, as I've been speculating from the beginning that Death for Death was a thin veneer meant to hide and temper Ichi's violent nature, and that his justifications of D.f.D. would likely become flimsier over time. I don't know if this is meant to be the start of it, but I think it will come to serve as an early warning sign when Ichi falls down the slippery slope later

Ichi taking on the role of the heel here also furthers my suspicion that neither he nor Togeice will win this challenge and a third party will swoop in to steal the kill. With Ichi being this cruel, it almost feels like he doesn't deserve to win, but it's not like we want him to lose because of that either. Instead, I think both Ichi and Togeice would stand to gain a lot more as characters from having their bout interrupted

I may change my tune with this coming week's chapter, as Kindake may prove more aggressive or Ichi may lighten up, but for now, like I said last week, things seem to be stacked a little too far in Ichi's favor for his win to be satisfying

Until next time, let's enjoy life!

Younger Siblings Tournament Bracket Reveal

A few things I want to mention before I reveal the bracket (and make the post really long because all the matchups will be listed in text):

Seeding of fictional characters in tumblr polls is inherently subjective. I did try to make it so that more popular characters/media would (most likely) face off against each other in later rounds, but I may be overestimating or underestimating the popularity of some characters/media, especially ones I'm not familiar with. There are some round 1 matchups that are probably a closer match but none of them are between the strongest candidates... I think.

The more niche characters will probably get obliterated in the first round as per Squimbus' Law. This is a tumblr poll and I do fully expect more popular characters to sweep, but that doesn't mean you can't encourage your friends to give your niche faves a fighting chance.

Also there are some matchups I literally just thought would be funny. Please don't take this too seriously.

I'm sorry BNHA fans.

-Resubmissions are fine as long as they weren’t on the tourney last time

- Please be as detailed as possible

I had issues on my end with some technicalities and media’s. eg a lot of characters from the hatchetfield musicals by team starkid were just submitted as hatchetfield which made it harder to search for them to identify them and get pictures etc. If those and similar fandoms could be submitted with what musical etc they’re from that would be great :)

CR Non-Endgame Ships Poll

Hello and welcome to the project that’s been occupying me all week! A showdown of sorts between 32 Critical Role ships that were not together by the end of their respective campaign! Some notes;

I’ve gone with the phrasing “non-endgame” as some of the relationships featured were together in canon at some point (ex. Blumendrei) or one half/both were canonically attracted to the other/had a crush (ex Widofjord). These are here alongside relationships that are purely fanon (ex. Verinwulf)

Since C3 and present-day EXU are still ongoing, open stories, no ships featuring those characters are included. Anything’s possible. Since EXU: Calamity is a closed story, it gets featured.

All relationships featured here are m/m, f/f, or poly. I have a running list for m/f ships and may do a bracket for them in the future depending on how this one goes. I am not ignoring them.

Each poll will feature art of the characters in question, included with permission from their artists. Links to the original posts will be included and I highly encourage giving them some love if you vote!

Let’s not do ship hate y’all, this is for fun. Please. Campaign for your favorites but keep it civil.

Block “cr non endgame poll” if you don’t want to see this further!

Voting will begin tomorrow (Feb 12) at 6pm CST! All polls with run for 24 hours

[hymn-of-muse]

I saw match ups were open, may I ask for a critical role and ninjago ones.

I’m a bisexual and look like the typically blonde haired blue eyed all american girl. I’m particularly small both in height and weight (I’m 5’ 3’’ and underweight). I’m a massive dork who loves tabletop games, improv, writing and baking. I’m very motherly by nature, and work as a tutor and am more passionate about teaching and working with kids than anything else. I horde plushies like a dragon and am very good with animals.

i relate

on that note, i immediately think Jay for you from ninjago! you both like games, i get the feeling he'd especially have fun playing dnd with you, you both like dragons and i bet he'd just adore the fact that youre on the short side.

for critical role however im between Fjord or Yasha from cr2. Fjord would just be so soft around you, he might not always get what youre talking about but he'd be super happy to listen as well as tease you a few times for your hight. he'd probably just fuel your plushie hoarding by gifting you some as his love language. Yasha would treasure you and remind you of how cute you are to her whenever she could, be it nicknames, through flowers, or just an off handed comment. If she sees how good you are with kids she will melt (they both would tbh).

would you guys be mad at me if i put the critical role/fantasy high characters in the game section

BLUE LOCK MATCHUP — @bankaixx

Your match is...

— Oliver Aiku

✦ "Lots of younger siblings" is the first detail that wins Oliver over.

✦ He has this very family-oriented vibe and gets along with everyone, even the strong heads.

✦ Knows how to make you feel comfortable in two seconds.

✦ A well-placed joke starts the first conversation.

✦ Commitment issues... until he meets you.

✦ We know the guy tends to have many flings, but few of them really go anywhere...

✦ ... yet I can perfectly see him being faithful once he meets you.

✦ There's something about you that soothes him, that strikes a chord.

✦ Maybe the fact that you're used to handling a bunch of kids? You know how to handle the bear that he is. BETTER: you know how to manage a (family) team!

✦ Light conversations in the evening when he gets home.

✦ Actually, I can see him being capable of deep and thoughtful dialogues but deliberately not trying when he senses you're exhausted from work. He knows that in those moments, what you need is relaxation.

✦ Manages to buy your favorite pastry amidst all the chaos of his daily life.

✦ Thinking of you always gives him a boost during tough matches.

✦ Deep down, he'd be content with any position as long as he can be there for you.

✦ He was capable of putting his ego aside for three years in a row, after all.

✦ Truly the generous type who comes back with arms full of gifts for Christmas, I can't imagine him any other way.

✦ Matching old Christmas sweaters!!!

✦ He loves your curves, but loves even more to slip behind you and wrap his muscular arms around you.

✦ 190cm of tenderness around your waist.

✦ Loves hearty hugs!

✦ The most likely to boost your confidence and appearance; in the summer, he's the first to cheer you on for your outfits.

✦ Fiercely confronts anyone who dares to criticize or look at you the wrong way.

✦ Even though direct confrontation isn't his preference (defender position obliges), he's intimidating and deterrent enough to ward off any threat.

✦ Shall we talk about the nurse x patient trope?

✦ Instant serious discussion while you tend to his wounds and bruises...

✦ Magic kiss on his boo-boos...

✦ And he asks for more...

✦ ... even when he's not really hurt.

✦ Dang I want to see that movie.

✦ You as his phone's wallpaper.

✦ Of course he has photos of the two of you in his wallet.

✦ During his moments of doubt, seeing and thinking of you restores his confidence.

✦ Always manages to do the boring household chores so you don't have to.

✦ Grocery shopping late at night even when he's exhausted, for example.

✦ And of course, he would have thought to bring you your favorite dessert.

✦ Takes you to Sweden to see his family.

✦ A big family in the making?

✦ I can't imagine him without kids.

✦ Even if you know nothing about soccer or aren't interested in it, he constantly talks to you about his exploits and highlights.

✦ He's tried to get you into it several times but you resist the invader...

✦ Deep down, he prefers to have you to himself and for the world to not know about your relationship. Easier to protect you.

✦ Even though he understands very well that you can handle yourself.

✦ Captain of his team, I'm sure he'd also make a great big brother. Your siblings would love his relaxed and friendly nature.

✦ And it's funny because he also sometimes seems much more mature than his age.

✦ Naturally switches roles according to needs.

✦ Ultimately, a family is a bit like a soccer team too.

✦ "We defend, we score together."

A word about your match: You were a tough one and I loved it. Hatstalls are my favorites. I initially thought of Rin for the siblings aspect... There was even Kunigami (he has a strong big brother vibe), but for me, Oliver was the best candidate for all the reasons mentioned.
