CR3 EP 63 THOUGHTS (SPOILERS)

So Delilah might actually be back and this has been rotating in my head since the events of last episode.

Either Pike lied, and Delilah was still lingering within Laudna in some capacity, laying dormant until emboldened by the presence of the solstice.

Or Pike was telling the truth, and Delilah is only present now because Laudna indulged in her vengeance and opened the door enough for Delilah to creep back in.

And I'm honestly not sure which is more devastating.

Had Laudna succeeded on her insight check I'd imagine events to be very different.

My half of our Essek art trade with the amazing @zmeess ! I've been obsessed with this Aeor outfit they designed for him since forever...♡

i started watching critrol!

*shaking you by the shoulders* don’t you understand that Relvin Temult's life is a tragedy?? The he knew Liliana was going to go somewhere else one day but he thought he'd be enough for her to want him with her and then he wasn't and she slipped away piece by piece until she was gone?? that he didn't want Imogen to be haunted by the same things as her mother but was utterly powerless to stop it and thought the best he could do was shield her from the little information he DID know before whatever got ahold of Liliana sunk its claws into her too?? that he watched imogen slip away, piece by piece and then all at once, just like her mother, and now there's no need for extra kitchen chairs because there's no one to have dinner with anymore so why bother??? have you read Our Wives Under The Sea????? You understand

The Imodna brainrot is still going strong for me (yeah I know it's been a month, leave me alone)

SO! Here's my first fan art of them (almost) kissing and I'm not gonna lie, I'm kinda nervous about this one.

I'd like to draw a proper kiss at some point but man, it's gonna be hard to overcome my embarrassement over this stuff, but if y'all like this one, I'll try my best!

I'm feeling so normal about this you guys

Second fanart ever had to go to my favorite wizard. @quiddie i hope i did you proud i was so scared to draw her because she’s perfect :,)

[ID: A digital illustration of Essek Thelyss and Caleb Widogast from Critical Role. They are inside a boat, amongst crates and barrels, and Caleb is kissing Essek on the forehead. Essek is looking away from Caleb, his expression upset, frustrated and sad. Caleb is wearing a black coat with silver embroidery and Essek is wearing purple robes with silver embroidery. End description.]

Maybe you and I are both damned

Essek, helping Fjord pretend to be a prisoner: can you create an illusion of chains?

Fjord: oh yeah let me just grab some manacles from our bag!

Essek, who keeps thinking the Nein can’t get any weirder: why… do you have that

Laudna art because I’m so autistic about her and I will protect onto her in ways you cannot imagine

hey y'all mind if I haunt the narrative

i'm too sleepy to finish tonight but I'm proud of how Drawing The Whole Scene TM is going so far so

Ashton, twice now, reaching out to Orym when he's in a dark place, not offering comfort directly that they know will be shrugged off, but being the one to open up, using that vulnerability to coax Orym into accepting the comfort he needs.

"If you see me falling down, pick me up. And I'll do the same."

Ashton, weeks ago, telling Orym he hopes he'd ask for help if he needs it. Orym still not willing to say anything until Ashton approaches. But asking for help in the way he can. If you see me falling... Telling Ashton what he needs, giving him permission to keep reaching out, because he knows they see him.

"And you can always just, you know..."

And Ashton giving his own permission for Orym's touch, trusting him to be gentle, to stop if he needs him to.

"Momentum means, you know, you don't really have to focus on anything unpleasant for too long."

And Orym's been running on momentum for years, most of them on his own, only recently having people around again to distract him.

And they get each other and they're connecting and they are willing to be just a little bit more open with each other, Ashton physically and Orym emotionally, willing to invite each other past their walls and be a little bit more vulnerable with each other.

as usual my brain asked the age old question... What if they kissed???
