Earlier

(Redraw of my all time favorite critical role scene I originally drew two years ago)

I was gonna draw this out of spite after it didn’t happen in tlovm but I’m glad I waited until I got to it in my rewatch so I got to experience how these two really grew, it just emphasizes to me even more just how big this conversation is for them.

critical role ships as hozier songs

vax / keyleth : francesca

percy / vex : work song

pike / scanlan : foreigner's god

fjord / jester : nobody

beau / yasha : as it was

caleb / essek : from eden

imogen / laudna : NFWMB

orym / dorian : like real people do

ashton / fearne : dinner & diatribes

specific lyrics that i feel like represent the pairings under the cut!

vax / keyleth : francesca

how could you think, darling, i'd scare so easily?

my life was a storm, since i was born, how could i fear any hurricane?

if i could hold you for a minute, darling, i'd go through it again

it was too soon, when that part of you was ripped away

i would not change it each time, heaven is not fit to house a love like you and i

percy / vex : work song

when my time comes around, lay me gently in the cold dark earth, no grave can hold my body down, i'll crawl home to her

and i was burning up a fever, i didn't care much how long i lived

but i swear, i thought i dreamed her, she never asked me once about the wrong i did

if the lord don't forgive me, i'd still have my baby and my babe would have me

in the low lamplight, i was free, heaven and hell were words to me

pike / scanlan : foreigner's god

she moved with shameless wonder, the perfect creature rarely seen

her eyes look sharp and steady into the empty parts of me

wondering who i copy, mustering some tender charm

breaking if i try conveying, the broken love i make to her

fjord / jester : nobody

i'd be appalled if i saw you ever try to be a saint, i wouldn't fall for someone i thought couldn't misbehave

but i've had no love like your love from nobody

if i had the choice between hearing either noise, the excitement of a thousand, or the soothing of your voice

and on the other side, why should we deny the truth? we could have less to worry about, honey, i won't lie to you

beau / yasha : as it was

and in a few days i will be there, love, whatever here that's left of me is yours, just as it was

the lights were as bright as my baby, but your love was unmoved

tell me if, somehow, some of it remains, how long you would wait for me and how long i've been away

the shape that i'm in now, your shape in the doorway, make your good love known to me or just tell me about your day

and the nights were as dark as my baby, and half as beautiful too

caleb / essek : from eden

there's something tragic about you, something so magic about you, don't you agree?

honey, you're familiar like my mirror years ago

innocence died screaming, honey, ask me, i should know

there's something broken about this, but i might be hoping about this

a rope in hand for your other man to hang from a tree

imogen / laudna : NFWMB

give your heart and soul to charity, cause the rest of you, the best of you, honey, belongs to me

ain't it a gentle sound, the rolling in the graves?

if i was born as a blackthorn tree, i'd wanna be felled by you, held by you, fuel the pyre of your enemies

ain't it the life of you, your lightning of the blaze?

orym / dorian : like real people do

i will not ask you where you came from, i will not ask and neither should you

i know that look, dear, eyes always seeking, was there in someone that dug long ago

honey, just put your sweet lips on my lips, we should just kiss like real people do

ashton / fearne : dinner & diatribes

i knew well from our first hookup, the look of mischief in your eyes

your friends are a fate that befell me, hell is the talking type, i'd suffer hell if you'd tell me what you'd do to me tonight

honey, i laugh when it sinks in, a pillar i am, upright

now that the evening is slowing, now that the end's in sight, honey, it's easier knowing what you'd do to me tonight

oh, let there be hotel complaints and grievances raised and that kind of love

[shieldmaiden-of-rivendell]

Name a better duo than No Mercy Percy and Bad News. I’ll wait.

it is so funny that no one in the cast has played a ranger or a hardcore ranged fighter build since Vox Machina so whenever Vex and Percy announce how absolutely bonkers their range is everyone is like "what"

[littlebosslady7]

Taliesin distracts Aabria with hot Percy voice.

Also Aabria’s reaction to Percy voice is accurate.

Guys, gals, NB pals, and everybody knows this.

[nowyoursoulisforfeit]

Hey, why the fuck do I have a drafted post with nothing but a picture of Percy’s death scene and the words “Rest now” underneath?

It’s my post.

No one else did this to me.

What the fuck, me? What’s your problem inner self?

[scythlyven-art]

Along with the charms I also have some fun little stickers if that’s more your speed 😊

[nowyoursoulisforfeit]

Gorgeous art, I love it. And very true caption to boot.

[PERC'ILDAN]

Vax is always gentle with Percy's hands, kissing them and massaging if they hurt after long day of work

Question about Percy & Vex

So legitimate question for those who have followed the CR episodes more than me who’s kind of new to it all. With Percy and Vex, will she outlive him / age him and he’ll die before her or is there a way that they’ll continue to age together and say die together? Cause I don’t know if my heart can take them being separated and one moving on from the other, they’re such soulmates.

[thebfg37]

If there’s a time jump between campaign 3 and 4; grog and percy will most definitely die of old age in the intervening years

[sunbrightheart]

if i was percy i would be the one putting vex’ahlia inside her poke ball amulet. gods know she doesn’t need to die a sixth time.

[wildivypsychic]

Im so happy c':

[little-miss-doe]

Queen by Midnight is again giving "this is why we can't have game night in the de Rolo family" energy and I appreciate it.

[onyxbird]

After dealing with an incredibly obnoxious work email exchange earlier, I have concluded that in a modern AU, Percy de Rolo would be the absolute king of passive-aggressive emails that trash the recipient via both wording and strategic CCs without ever saying something overtly rude/unreasonable.

As for the rest of VM:

Vex is probably second best at the passive-aggressive email, but a little too prone to slipping over into overtly aggressive that someone can push back on.

Scanlan is deeply persuasive, but he usually skips over passive-aggressive for charm or outright deception.

Keyleth occasionally attempts to write a passive-aggressive email because she thinks it's the kind of thing she should know how to do, but she usually overthinks it and lets her anxiety and tendency to over-explain get in the way.

Pike doesn't do passive-aggressive emails because it feels mean. If she's mad enough for the gloves to come off, she's going to confront the person directly.

Vax either full-on vents his spleen onto the keyboard or ghosts the person--no real middle ground. (He also has his email set up to automatically reject all read-receipt requests, so you won't even get the certainty of knowing that he opened the email and is deliberately refusing to respond.)

No one knows whether Grog is passive-aggressive in email, because it's too hard to tell one way or the other when they're exclusively written in emojis.

[your-turn-to-role]

@captainphotogirl i forgot about that, but yeah no, that's another great part of this fight

now like of all the c1 plots to cut for tlovm, the rakshasa is a no brainer, no arguments there, but apropos of nothing i'm thinking about the end of duskmeadow again and god i wish we'd gotten to see that

[nowyoursoulisforfeit]

Thinking about Percy today but in a way that’s like I’m sorry, but you can’t die quietly. There’s a fight in your heart between the light and dark. That is the essence of who you are: your anger and the love that fuels it. Some people were born to fight and to suffer, and you’re one of them. You can’t change that. You are a tragedy and a miracle. You are the shining star and the night that surrounds it. There are people you love despite it. They love you too. You are a survivor of the war in your heart, against all odds. The world may be dark, but you will never face it alone. Remember that. I know you don’t think you deserve it, so all I ask is that you remember. When you’re dying, remember: there is a reason you chose to live.
