Something I really like about how Laura plays Imogen is that her idea of what's appropriate to say around people she likes is completely warped by her powers. I think Imogen feels it's better to voice your honest thoughts, even if they're somewhat tactless or lack the niceties one would expect, which makes sense because what most frustrates her is people who think one thing and say the other. However, that's not the standard for hypocrisy among people who aren't psychic, which is why she often comes off the way she does.
#critical role#honestly as someone who usually finds psychic characters VERY annoying i think this is giving us insight that is usually lacking#imogen's standards of empathy and hypocrisy are on a fully different scale than most people's are - including all of bells hells#and on some level it's like. she does know how to mask it but doesn't w/people she's more comfortable with (the party & her father)#but also it means she's often the least traditionally empathetic with people she cares about#it's a SUPER interesting flip of Laura's usual M.O.#imogen temult
