a fun mini game to play while watching house is to try to guess who's going to have the medical emergency during the cold opening
my dad doesn't play much, but he tends to try to use logic to deduce who's going to get sick by looking for small details which is rarely correct bc the writers want to hook watchers in, which they do by subverting expectations
my mom always guesses the person who looks completely and utterly healthy which yields her a pretty good win rate, thrown off when there are multiple people in the background and when they're subverting the subversion
while I tend to guess by going with whoever is played by the more recognizable actor, as I correctly surmise that the person who's going to be having medical emergencies needs to be a good enough actor to get steady work, lol
#this post is inspired by i correctly guessed it was going to be the campaign manager and NOT the sweaty politician in the ep we just watched#due to the fact that i recognized him from burn notice lmaooooo#house md#hate crimes md#malpractice md#mouse bites md#jazzy keeps blogging til the blog ends

If johnny’s not the dm he’s rolling to seduce EVERYTHING they come across
“This is a magical book , pay the right price and it will tell you the secret you search for”
“Can the price be steamy hot sex? I roll to seduce the book”
“Johnny FOR THE LAST TIME-“
no because johnny and kyle are literal heathens. you can’t throw anything in their path without one of them (sometimes both of them) immediately trying to roll to seduce the creature or object. you try your best to maneuver the story so that simon or john are the ones to encounter the enemy first, but even that doesn’t deter them sometimes.
“s’not too late tae roll fer seduction, is it?”
“you’re aware that your party is in active combat right? wouldn’t it make more sense to…i dunno, attack the enemy?”
“you underestimatin’ my abilities, hen?”
to which he proceeds to roll a critical failure and nearly dying (he has to beg simon to heal him)

I'll be missing the live wrap-up but i wanted to say it's been disheartening but sadly unsurprising the way a lot of people who started with Campaign 3 talk about Marisha and Laura especially. It feels as though they see them as little more than vessels to provide Laudna and Imogen content. They get outright mad when people ask them questions in the AMA Firesides or 4SD about their jobs in Critical Role as a company, or other characters they've played, or their personal feelings about things they enjoy. A lot of them hate the Cobalt Soul despite Marisha explicitly and repeatedly saying it's incredibly meaningful to her, and are vocal about this, but will attack you if you say you're not a big fan of Laudna. Their approach to Keyleth feels like little more than a convenient opportunity for them to say "you can't ever criticize Marisha! Look at the harassment she received" but they'll then direct this claim towards anyone, even people who watched C1 live and experienced that in real-time and opposed it. They'll engage in harassment themselves and claim it's in defense of Marisha, then turn around and shit talk the Cobalt Soul and yell about how the Ashari are evil Ruidusborn haters and Beauyasha is boring.
And to be clear I have a longstanding and documented history of disliking obnoxiously parasocial behavior or invasive/repetitive/overly generic panel questions. I think, and I mean this genuinely, that it's completely fine and reasonable to be a CR fan who is here for characters only, and isn't interested in the cast. Indeed, I think a lot of early fans of the show were mostly here for the story of Vox Machina, and I respect the people who didn't connect to the Mighty Nein nor have an attachment to the cast and politely stepped away. I am not demanding everyone love every piece of merch nor every creative direction choice lest they disrespect Laura or Marisha; that is not how this works. But there's a difference between "I'm not really interested in anything but Keyleth, so I'm only tuning in to TLOVM chats!" vs this entitled distaste, verging on disgust, among a certain set of C3 fans when Marisha and Laura especially spend even a minute of their out-of-character time talking about anything other than Laudna and Imogen. If you do this, you cede the right to any "they're having fun/it's meaningful or comforting or makes them happy" defense (which, to be clear, I do not think is a valid argument with regards to the quality of a story, but which a lot of these people hypocritically invoke) or "if you dislike this female character or F/F ship you're a bigoted person," especially when you resent the actual real-world women behind your pretend characters for choosing to answer a question about anything other than what you personally care about.
And ultimately, I think that if you are dismissive and resentful towards the bulk of what the cast/company does (this includes when you turn this resentment towards fans for daring to ask questions about anything else, even in places that aren't at all C3-specific like panels or cast fireside AMAs, or places where the crew or the cast themselves are the ones actually choosing which questions are answered), it is childish and embarrassing to then act like you are being wronged and your opinions cruelly disregarded simply because something of which you only like one small facet fails to cater to you. You don't have to like it; but you showed up to part 3 of a trilogy and got mad that the creators sometimes talk about parts 1 and 2.
#cr discourse#also like. speaking as someone who started with c2 it's straight up incorrect#to act like c2-concurrent talks machina/panels/firesides didn't include c1 questions/random d&d questions/one-shot questions#frankly c1 q&as and panels i've watched often had like. voice acting or d&d general questions while we're at it.#like it's WILD how many c3 people showed up and just. said objectively untrue things about the past like no one would notice?#also i feel there's this BIZARRE behavior re: bells hells where their fans act like they were idk#interns hired to do the same job as vm or the nein for half the pay and double the time and were screwed over by management#and it's like well they're not real people and don't have feelings; we can discuss if the intent was well communicated to the cast by matt#but ultimately bh don't and will never exist outside this context of PCs for The Avengers Assemble Campaign.

DP x DC Prompt #32
When Danny had mentioned dungeons and dragons to his new family, he wasn't expecting all of them to latch on like they had. Hadn't realized they'd want him so desperately to DM for them.
But, Danny's in-between campaign's right now, so he agrees. Why not? Besides, it might be a good way to hint that he knows about their late night activities.
#finemeal prompt#dp x dc#danny fenton#batfam#but also this could be any dc hero family#i was specifically thinking about batfam but you don't have to#it's a prompt after all#d&d#which characters do you think everyone would play?#also who would play?#managing 7 players is like ... max for a lot of dms#my own max is 6 people#so like some people would be excluded#unless danny ran parallel campaigns#or just two at the same time#that'd be fun

They also look similar, which is pretty funny.
#THIS IS NOT MEANT TO BE A HOMURA DISS I LOVE HOMURA but the similarities are funny#I rewatched the series recently and was like hmmm... yeah... hmmm... shutting my mouth and sweating next to my roommate who doesn't know ye#I was actually planning to end the campaign in a similar way to pmmm if a manage to go that far#but the comparison is unfair unless I give Strahd several guns and explosives I think#cos#cos spoilers#curse of strahd#strahd von zarovich#not art#curse of strahd spoilers

i get the picture maxis was trying to convey with mary-sue but placing her on such a low career level shes been in for? 15 years? with an almost nonexistent skillset in her late adulthood and a job that literally requires none to advance?? like mary-sue is clearly completely unfit to be a politician because how does she even manage that, all while she's tight with the most influential family in all history and never thought about taking advantage of that YET she spent over a decade just being an intern whos about to be fired over a speech check and not once considered changing careers during all that time while we're all supposed to think she's this massive career woman who severely neglected every other aspect of her life for it and basically helen morgendorffer is. actually tragic
#mary-sue is simply incompetent theory#like many things can hinder advancement but making coffee for p much DECADES while casually friends w the sims equiv of the clintons#when career is her n1 thing shes neglecting everything else for????#imo they shouldve AT LEAST made her like a lvl 4 campaign manager!!#💻

re the first three tlovm s3 episode title teaser fr. vex getting [redacted] while standing in front of percy . i will undoubtedly have Thoughts about plot n adaption once the whole season is out but i will say people acting like vex potentially dying again is a betrayal of the arc is . i say this politely. ridiculous. vex’s most common habit aside from haggling and flirting in campaign 1 was being knocked unconscious. she required full ass resurrection spells on four separate occasions. we currently have no idea what the shape of any arc in season 3 will look like beyond broad strokes and teasing shots. if they end up wanting to incorporate the exandrian magic lore of it’s harder to come back each time you die, vex seems like the obvious opportunity to do so. please at the very least save the panic posting for when you actually have something to panic about .
#maybe this is just my ‘that’s my favourite character. i’d love to see them Die’ syndrome#but i see vex get shot i start jumping up and down and clapping. yes . yes#potentially exploring vex’s feelings on dying explicitly in the show whereas laura did it fairly subtly/internally with vex’s choices#in the campaign? i’d love to see it. potentially both vex and percy dying and getting sent to hell by ripley’s cursed gun and getting the#Where Do The People I Kill Go convo earlier?#i Would miss the true loves nat 20 don’t get me wrong. but i also think that moment hits so hard Because of the At A Table-ness of it#part of the moment isn’t just vex pleading with percy. it’s laura appealing to tal’s sense of story. it’s laura managing to break notable#Rare Crier Sam Riegel. it’s the fact that it’s a dice roll and travis encouraging matt to look and matt’s awed ‘i believe it’#and i think dialogue wise there’s some stuff with the speech itself that might not be super well suited as writing choices#versus when it was improv.#idk man i just. i’m big on letting mediums play into what mediums play into. telling the same story in different mediums is nonsensical 2 me#how you meet a story is Part of the story#tlovm spoilers#kind of#critical role

Oh god I just read the new update of hanahaki and shed a few tears because of anakin's heartbreak BUT THEN I read the body politic au and now I can't stop laughing. I must look insane right now, your range of writing is truly amazing! Body politic Ani is so ridiculous and hilarious and quite adorable and Councilman Kenobi is probably thinking the same thing... and definitely annoyed at himself for thinking that. (p.s. am I right to assume that this Anakin looks like Hayden in Shattered Glass?)
he's picturing councilman kenobi shoving him into a utility closet and fucking him next to the mop
but he's also like 100% straight. he's just an ally? he has a girlfriend (he doesn't). he has a future wife (he doesn't, but he doesn't know that yet)
meanwhile he's praying for patience (his glasses are real and his patience is thin)
#asks#body politic au#spoiler he runs out of patience probably after some sort of fundraising dinner#and fucks his campaign manager (self-titled) in the kitchen#obikin

#I know you're obsessed with him gwayne but control your temper#just joking#5% of the time he mocks#the other 95% he freaks out from what is happening and yells at criston#a married couple who managed to get divorced 10 times during a military campaign#they're funny.#He thought it would be a fun walk.#Now he needs lifelong therapy.#gwaynston#gwayston#crisgwayne#criston cole#criston x gwayne#gwayne hightower#hotd#house of the dragon#my post
