Well.
This was certainly a turn of events. 
Late at night, Lizzie had heard a splashing outside her base. Now, seeing as her base was on the water, that was sort of to be expected. However, something felt off about it.
It didn’t sound like a fish, or a turtle, or.. even a dolphin.
No, it sounded like a person swimming towards her base- the unwieldy splashing and struggling was far too human to be anything else.
She stepped out of her bedroom, looking down from the edge of her palace and squinting at the shape she saw in the water below. Was that

“Jimmy?” She called down- but as it got closer, it didn’t seem like Jimmy. The swimming was too ungainly, looking as if the person was struggling to push themself through the water- Jimmy normally swam gracefully (he was the Codfather, after all), so
 who was this? Lizzie took a few steps down her staircase, glancing back at her axolotl guards- “You two stay here, okay? Come get me if I scream.” They didn’t respond, being axolotls. (She loved them anyway, even if they did just sit there and look pretty most of the time.)
Heading down the steps, she paused about halfway down, peering over the edge. She could see the person a bit clearer now, and- yeah, that was Jimmy. But
 what was wrong with him?
He looked paler than usual, even from the distance she was seeing him from, and he seemed scared- stars, what was wrong? She hurried down the steps quicker, her nightgown swishing around her legs- maybe she should’ve put her armor on before this, but Jimmy’s practically her brother, he wouldn’t hurt her.
“Jimmy, what’s going on?” She called down to him as she reached the bottom of the stairs, looking out into the sea to see him. “..Jimmy?” She called again as he didn’t respond. He simply swum closer to her base, looking almost sickly- his skin was a sickly green and purple color, sallow and shining like wax. It was
 wrong.
The splashing was unwieldy as he got closer- she should’ve known something was wrong as soon as she saw he wasn’t in a boat, it was far enough away that any normal human would be tired, but she hadn’t been thinking- and she took a few steps back on the stairs, nearly stumbling on the slick prismarine surface. “Jimmy, what’s wrong?” She called again, not expecting an answer- was this even Jimmy? He looked so
 wrong- even for a man who normally looked like a giant cod. He didn’t answer, just pulling himself onto the stairs as well, and- well, there was nowhere for her to go but up. 
So she ran.
She nearly slipped a few times, which would be a really awful way to go, she thought to herself, falling down the stairs of the base that took me so long to build, but not-Jimmy seemed to be moving slowly, as if he wasn’t fully there. It was like those weird gross worms fWhip had told her about once, the ones that mind controlled people. 
Ew. She probably shouldn’t have gotten distracted, because she missed a step on the stairs, yelping in surprise and stumbling down several steps- nearly bumping into the not-Jimmy. When had it caught up to her? She’d thought it was further behind than that- It was reaching for her, a wet, slimy hand getting closer and closer and- 
She kicked it.
More out of reflex than anything, some long forgotten self defense class kicking in, but she kicked it, and it stumbled away, sliding down the same stairs that she had only a moment ago.
Panic now clouding her brain, she just stared for a minute as it picked itself up, further back but not by much, before her survival instinct finally kicked in, prompting a much faster ascent. 
(She held closer to the handrail this time too. She really didn’t want to find out what that hand would feel like.)
As she reached the top tower of her palace, she realized that
 she hadn’t really thought about what she should do after arriving here.
She glanced around, looking for something, anything that could help, but- nothing. Stars, she was so dead.
She could hear the footsteps creeping up the stairs, her heart hammering against her ribcage as she tried to think of what to do- 
And there it was, staring at her from several steps away. It was worse as it got closer- its eyes sunken in, dull and bloodshot- stars, how had she ever thought this was Jimmy?? It lumbered towards her as she stood, frozen- what could she do?? There were no weapons nearby, her armory far on the other side of the tower, and despite her luck earlier, she didn’t know if she could take this thing in a one on one fight. She glanced around frantically, her hands raised in what she hoped would work as a shield should the thing decide to attack while she was trying to figure out what to do, and her gaze landed on her throne- 
And the axolotls beside it.
She locked eyes with Sir Strawberry, trying to psychically convey the thought I need help right now- and praying that he picked up on it.
Oh, stars-
She could hear the thing getting closer and closer, its awful, dead looking eyes boring holes into her as she grabbed the only thing in her inventory- a stick. (Why did she have a stick in there?? What was she even going to do with that-?? Nevertheless, she was grateful for its presence. At least she wasn’t facing this thing unarmed.) Her hands shook as she gripped the stick, holding it like a baseball bat- if this were a different situation, she would’ve laughed- what was she going to do, hit a home run with this thing??
“Come and get me, then.” She said, trying to keep the shake out of her voice and failing. And it did. As if it had understood her words- which she honestly wasn’t sure if it had or not- it lunged at her, its nails dirty and slimy as it tried to scratch at her face- but she whacked it with the stick, stumbling a few feet backwards- oh stars, she was gonna die. She was so dead.
The floor was slick- why had she never fixed the leaky roof??- and she nearly fell due to the force of her swing, barely catching herself. The creature seemed more affected, though, as it slid back several feet, nearly falling as well.
Okay. Okay! This was good! Maybe if she just- kept doing that she could survive until the morning (she hoped that was as long as this thing would last, but knowing her luck
) It lunged again, catching her off guard- she shouldn’t have been thinking in the middle of a fight, stupid, stupid, she should’ve been paying attention-
And she fell, going sprawling on the floor.
Her stick broke at the impact, and she struggled to get up due to the fact that she was now covered in water.
Oh, stars.
It approached, reaching out towards her. 
She squeezed her eyes closed- there was nothing she could do now She was
 there wasn’t a way out of this that she could see. She hoped someone apologized to everyone for her, told them that she was sorry she hadn’t helped with Xornoth more, than she still felt bad about the Cod War, that she was-
She heard a squeak, a splash sound, and opened her eyes- to see Lady Marceline and Sir Strawberry attacking.
They’d seen their Queen fall and lunged for the creature, pushing it backwards with the unexpected force-
And sending it careening off the edge of the tower.
Lizzie looked over the edge, not seeing it resurface.
Her hands were shaking, her heart pounding- her axolotls jumped on her (much gentler than they had the intruder, of course), trying to make sure she was okay. 
“..you guys.. You saved me.” She said softly, petting their little heads and trying to get her breathing to return to normal. They squeaked, butting their heads against her affectionately.
“...thank you. You- you did it. We made it.” She shook her head in shock and disbelief.
“We made it.”

I think it would be really funny if you could get Wyll out of his pact by having Withers reclass him
Mizora over here pissed off because she didn’t anticipate Wyll being friends with the god of paperwork who would get him out of his devil contract for 100 gold, meanwhile he’s punching trees in half because he’s a monk now and giggling the whole time

Minthara says “in Her name” when you first meet her and she’s following the Absolute but when you recruit her and she expresses that she no longer follows any god, but she still has an intact paladin oath, and she says “in your name” occasionally because she’s no longer Lolth’s paladin or the Absolute’s paladin, she’s your paladin
#😭#she might not think you’re a god or whatever but you’re the only one that ever came to save her#and if you let her read your mind you’re the only one she knows has no intention to hurt or use her#like I feel like what Minthara wants most of all is to not have to look over her shoulder or wait for the shoe to drop#like every relationship she’s had as a lolthsworn drow has come with the caveat that everyone will take her out if they have the chance#and if it benefits them even a little#lolth literally encourages this so long as you aren’t obvious about it#and lolth will 100% punish you the second she has an excuse to#and then the absolute like while she was being controlled probably felt more like genuine love than Minthara ever experienced#but it came with Orin and punishments for failing#and her being literallly mind controlled into her#so it’s still violent and threatening even if the extent of that is only realized after she’s pulled out of it#but then there’s you who pulled her out of that#who can clearly and plainly show her that you have no intention of hurting her even if it benefits you#and who went out of your way to rescue her when no one else she was devoted to ever would#and you offered her the means to not only stay safe from the absolute but to get revenge on it#of course it’s ‘in your name’ now you’re the only person that gave Minthara a reason for her to follow you#that wasn’t threats of violence and suffering#you literally gave her the opposite#she’s YOUR paladin it doesn’t matter if aren’t a god#you could be tho#Minthara#minthara baenre#bg3#baldur's gate 3

Being honest, I think using Miss Delight and Ollie in this chapter instead of the Critters was a mistake. Dogday would have been a great candidate for the role Ollie filled. It would explain why he already knows us when we find him in the dungeon, why he calls us "Poppy's Angel," why he already seems to know what she's planning. It would also just be thematically appropriate, because of course he knows Playcare like the back of his hand, of course he would be the one to bring back the power, the light, in order to chase away Catnap's darkness. It would make the fact that we couldn't save him at the end of the Playhouse section that much more of a gut-punch, because he would have already saved us multiple times at that point and he would have felt like a friend.
As for the other Smiling Critters, a couple of them could already be dead, sure, but others could have been lurking in various buildings and locations within the Playcare. Bobby Bearhug and Picky Piggy could have been who we run into in Home Sweet Home, with Bobby languishing in the bedrooms that held the children she once loved so dearly, while Picky, who has gone insane from hunger, haunts the kitchens, desperately prowling for fresh meat. We could convince Bobby to help us, while evading Picky, lending a sense of true danger and urgency to the level that was lacking in the original, since we are never in any actual danger inside Home Sweet Home in that version outside of running into the red smoke without our gas mask.
Craftycorn and Bubba Bubbaphant could be who we run into in the school, or Bubba could possibly be found in the caverns or in one of the power rooms, giving us a key piece of equipment that we would need to progress or helping us with solving puzzles. Craftycorn could take the place of Miss Delight, with the same mechanics and everything, but instead of being insane with hunger like Miss Delight, she could be desperately seeking out new art supplies, since she has long since run out. Fresh blood makes great paint.
The antagonists in the Playhouse could still be the mini Critters, or it could possibly be Kickin' Chicken or Hoppy Hopscotch, who are trying to get your grabpack and take it for their own in order to escape. Whichever character isn't trying to steal your grabpack would be helping you play keep-away with it. Alternatively, Kickin Chicken and Bubba could already be dead (since their voice lines end in screaming in their cutouts), and Hoppy could be trying to help us get the power back on after Dogday's death (since her symbol is a lightning bolt). When Catnap finally makes his appearance, she could sacrifice herself to distract him, giving us key time to get away and set up our defenses with the batteries.

Why does Ren have 4 ears? Are they all real or is one set fake?
Hehe I’ve gotten this question a lot actually! They’re all real— I like to think hybridization isn’t always a clean balance of traits, so Ren just unfortunately ended up with two sets of ears— his Dog ears being much more receptive to sound, naturally— and sometimes when the extra intake of sound is too overwhelming, I imagine he wears earplugs in his human ears to help adjust :> it’s a bit weird, but idk! i like to make designs funky and nonconventional! I liked the idea that Ren had hearing struggles due to wonky hybridization and just kept the concept :>
