yes i know heartstopper is "cringe" and yes I know you think it's not that deep but you've endured years of cringe oversexualized shows about high schoolers where the gays are delegated to sub plots I'm sure a few hours of queer people being safe and happy and loved won't kill you so please shut the fuck up
one thing about shawn spencer is he’s going to square up for the underdog. the lawyer in cloudy with a chance of murder. the bank robber in gus walks into a bank. lying ryan in truer lies. even lassiter in lassie did a bad bad thing. he will take one look at a pathetic little man and say “is anyone going to stand in front of him and protect him from evil and prove he is telling the truth despite the odds being against him?” and then not wait for an answer. you go girl, you project those self esteem issues like the king that you are 😔✊
"You laughed at me for supporting her, but never was there a braver moment than when she came to you. And I knew what you would do...and I knew that she must try. And I will not abandon her now, just as I wish we had not abandoned you, and you us."
Nick Marini!!!!!! As a huge Pelor fan I am literally frothing at the mouth about this exchange!!!
The way he delivered the line "and I knew what you would do" and his facial expression, oh my GODS. It is definitely one of my top five all time favorite improvised performances from a Critical Role episode ever. Just outstanding. Absolute cinema. Goated performance.
I haven't even finished the episode yet and this has already been so good.
as an actual French person, let me tell you that Kit did a really good job with his lines in French? Obviously he still had an accent but it was FAR from the worst I've heard, and he was completely understandable (which is NOT a given even when actors try their best) and sounded quite natural? Honestly he sounded like someone who's been practicing their French for a lot longer than he actually has, so while he didn't sound like a native speaker I am SO PROUD of him because we all know he had a long way to go from "oui"
