#just thinking my little thoughts. these robits in love have bewitched me heart and soul.

i think what makes FCG/FRIDA so beloved is that its a basically unexplored relationship dynamic? not because theyre robots. but in years and years and multiple campaigns, i dont believe we've ever had a relationship that's just. nice?

theres no internal character struggles or external forces keeping them apart. theyre not a slowburn juggernaught, not a one night stand. although it does inform both their characters in fun and interesting ways, its not terribly complicated and layered.

its just two people who met, liked each other, got together without much fuss, and are enjoying kissing and holding hands and using petnames on each other.

and while i do hope for some conflict or hardship, because i love drama and i think the actors will handle it in a super interesting way, im finding it very refreshing to watch critical role for once do a relationship thats quite simple and lovely - a fairy floss love story, as compared to the seven course meals that are, say, perc'ahlia or shadowgast - and i think a lot of fans feel the same
