Very interested to see how Orym ‘Survivor’s Guilt’ of the Air Ashari handles the fact that FCG’s death releases him from his bargain with Nana Morri

listen so closely to me i think liliana temult is a fascinating character and she’s really fun to examine morally but also nothing will ever come fucking close catharsis-wise to watching ashton and orym fucking cross examine her ass in episode 92. the sexiest shit i’ve ever seen “your worst fear is probably my worst fear, and i think we just got a little sample (my worst fear came true because you weren’t fast enough, what will you do when it’s her head on the line?)” and “keep wrestling (you must bear the weight of their deaths on your conscience and know it will never be enough for what you took from me)” like holy SHIT you guys

From both a story and mechanic level, bringing the Crown Keepers in adds several important aspects to the group dynamics.
First, Orym and Fearne know all the Crown Keepers (even if they don't know Morrighan, Morrighan knows Nana Morri), and all the Hells know Dorian. These aren't just new people, its people they can trust.
Second, from a mechanics level, we now have possibly 3 more healers. Morrighan is a paladin and Dorian and Dariax are bards.
Then, the Crown Keepers are heavily involved with gods. In Bells Hells, the only one on the side of the gods was FCG. Crown Keepers have Opal and the Spider Queen, Morrighan and the Raven Queen, Dariax and the Observer. They had all spoken with the Wildmother once before. Like with Deanna, there will now be an opposing view point on the gods.
Things are going to be very interesting when they meet up

So, Dorian’s worst fear is people close to him being corrupted. Imagine his reaction when he sees Orym now, with his pact powers. Imagine the heartbreak

My dream of Fy'ra Rai meeting and "little brother"ing Ashton as a fellow genasi is closer than ever to coming true...
Also Fy'ra Rai is going to be SO proud of fire shard!Fearne. And then they kiss?

i love being able to separate ships i like and characters i think it would be fun to imagine kissing from the most realistic and true to the characters interpretation. i simply don't think that the ships i enjoy should always be canon and in fact sometimes appreciate them more as unrequited in canon

accidentally opening twitch chat during last ep and finding out aabria is the president of doriax fanclub:
so if you ever think you're the only one still shipping doriax, remember that if our lord and savior aabria iyengar is still carrying this ship with her bare hands we're still cool kids

One thing that drives me a little crazy for the EXU half while also being completely understandable:
Why does the Spider Queen need Opal to ditch her friends to go fight Predathos? Like ma'am, why aren't you taking advantage of "we'll follow you" to get a whole hit squad instead of just a lonely champion?
And yes, this is probably more about the Spider Queen's own trust issues and visions/understanding of power and a belief compassion (for allies/friends) will hold her champion back. But c'mon. Look at the goddamn logistics of five (six with Cyrus) people fighting for you versus one. In what way is having support that can heal and boost and assist your champion bad? Don't you want a champion that has better odds of finishing the mission and living to serve another day? (probably cares less about champion survivability, being a Betrayer who doesn't care about mortals. But good help is hard to find, especially during a crunch)
I'm just sitting here shaking my head at a goddess desperate to get her pawn in on the fight and going about it the completely wrong way.

When Aabria talked in the chat about going for an opening after FCG’s death, I wasn’t expecting her to take MATT’S job

The Ashton/Chetney tag still only has two fics in it. It's been a year, and that means...
The Critical Role Summer Wildflowers Exchange is back!
Dreamwidth. Haven Discord Community. Ao3.
You do not have to join Haven to participate, although it is the fastest way to contact the mods. It also has sprint channels and writers who can help you puzzle out your prompt fills.
Please see the Ao3 link for more information. Drop by to see the fics from the last three years while you’re there!
Ineligible ships
Like last year, eligible ships are those with under 500 works.
Did you know that as of April 18th, kimallura still has only 481 fics? Counting all the fics where they only show up as a background pairing? Yes, it means we miss one or two ships that are popular side pairings, but it keeps us focused on the rarest ships. In the spirit of the exchange, we also ask that we prioritize ships other than the most popular pairing in the Candela section.
Timeline

OBSESSED with Dariax taking levels in bard. Something something taking levels in another character’s class as an expression of love…
