"Teacher! When is it your planet's hero day!" the little ones shouted

"And by hero you mean...?"

"The day you celebrate your important people!"

"Oh, well we have lots of heroes. Did you kids have one in mind?"

"The one who saves people!" smiled the youngest.

"Okay...and what else do they do?"

"He makes people laugh." point out the middles.

"So he saves people by making them laugh?"

"Yeah but he also fights bad guys." reply the eldest.

"Uhh...okay I need another hint."

"He uh...he's super strong!"

"He swings around!"

"He wears red!"

"...are you talking about Spider-Man??"

"YES!!" they scream.

"Oh...pfft....okay...kids I'm sorry but he's not real. He's a story character."

"..." "..." "..."

"But we can make a Spider-Man day?" they quickly said.

The younglings cheer and talk amongst themselves about what day would be the best day and what should they do for it. Obviously consulting the experts first which was Stevie, Oscar, Oscar K. and Theo who proudly stood to the side wearing their Spider-Man shirts, jackets, or sipping from their Spider-Man water bottles.

"...of course they were ones who told them about Spider-Man." the human sighs smiling.

It's looking like there's a growing divide between Campaign watchers and Tlovm watchers in terms of like. We're here for the characters. 12-episode seasons aren't. They can't be. I'm already making peace with everything we'll lose in the Mighty Nein show, and I know I will enjoy it for what it is but I also know that almost nothing that made the story so special will translate to the screen, because turning it into a show automatically means (in this day and age) that plot must be the number one priority. They've already come out and told us it's going to be different, the characters we know and love but new stories.

Because that's how this has to work. And I feel bad for campaign one lovers, because while it is certainly the easier of the two to translate to a big, overarching story, even though it's a more "traditional" high fantasy story with easier archetypal characters, the archetypes and the plot aren't what cemented most people's love for the campaign. So much of the love for critical role is stored in the interpersonal dynamics and the payoff that comes from hundreds of hours of tiny interactions that one day become cornerstones of development and even affect or dictate the plot.

There's no room for that. There's no room for Bard's Lament in a story that cannot afford to remove and replace a main character. A lot of tlovm is for people who have been here for all of campaign one. Most of it, however, isn't. It's for a new crowd. While CR may have creative control, you can bet your ass that there were months and years devoted to figuring out how to map a character-focused love of the show into a plot that hits the right beats to be viable in the show market.

And it worked. Tlovm has consistently high viewing numbers, and its popularity has brought and will continue to bring new people into the universe who have never interacted with CR previously. That's not a bad thing - imagine finishing your favorite show and discovering it has another FIVE HUNDRED HOURS of the equivalent of behind the scenes content. That's incredible for these newcomers. But man, it is in many ways a loss for us.

I miss this blog before you become full toxic Carlos fan. RPF'ing is one thing, but actually agreeing with these parasocial freaks who post essays at anti Charles tag is crazy. I'd like to ask you to stop shipping Charlos and move into Carlando instead.

Lmfao girl smoke a joint, call your therapist and go fuck yourself ♡

It's literally not that deep you guys are taking shipping way too fucking seriously- asking me to ship something else is making me howl with laughter here and you're talking of parasocial freaks like- ????

Rewatching some S6 and I cannot BELIEVE that TWO EPISODES AFTER POOF WAS BORN, Cosmo was already referring to Timmy as his big brother.

Right and his work menaces (Brent and Karen).

I don't remember last I mentioned it but apart from crude nicknames to people (except Chris), he also just puts them in his phone really weird (except Chris, who is literally in his phone as Chris). And I bring this up because in Right's phone, Karen is saved as "Lawful Obligation".

"Have you ever seen [Barkov] fall? Has he ever fallen? He's never fallen his entire career!" "Uh—It's, uh, funny and I don't know if he'll care that I say this, but he's got those—he doesn't like the blades that you can snap in and out quickly. So when he needs to get his skates done in the middle of a game, he's gotta fully take off his skates, get 'em sharpened and retie them up—which is like one of the few guys in the league, I think, that still do that. So sometimes he'll have absolutely no edge, and he'll just find a way to, like, compensate and get through it—which is incredible." "That kind-of sucks though 'cuz that's like a bad dream to have. You're waiting on something else, like—even if the trainers just like snapped it back in or whatever, like maybe they had something different they can put in there. He probably wouldn't even know!" "[...] this guy's particular. He knows his game and he's goddamn good at it! And we don't say a word so!" "'Barky, we need you out there for the face off! There's two seconds left!'" "That's what I mean! He'll compensate and he'll still look better than all of us! Like if any of us had no edge like that, we'd be screwed, right? And he goes out there and does the Barky things that he does. We're all grateful for it! He's been getting me paid for 10 years now, so."

my mom's a library director and for some reason her library received their copy of the new lorne michaels biography before it's even available in stores so of course as soon as she brought it home i flipped to the index then read any paragraph mentioning the kids in the hall

haunted by the idea of sanji breaking down days after hearing about ace's death and it's because ivankov asked if he needed a hand with the dishes.

Hmmm..

Should I include the main hybrids when I start my Henry Wu collection since he's only got Lego minifigures, 1-2 (I think) lego sets, two MTG cards, and one figure to his name?

Will they ever release figures of his appearances in the Jurassic World Series?! Will it take another 30 years!? 😭😔
