For the shipping bingo thing, here's some CR 2 ones to choose from: Fjorclay - Fjord/Caduceus (because I like it) Widojest - Caleb/Jester (because it seems to be controversial) And Beayashter - Beau/Yasha/Jester (because doing a throuple might be fun)
Tumblr media
Just gonna jump in, I never really thought I'd be into fjordclay, just cause I didn't really know what the dynamic of it would be like?? But after seeing some art done by a few people I think it's very cute, and would love to see these boys. I don't see it actually happening but that doesn't stop me from reading found family fic where these to are occasionally an item.
I know caleb/jes is very controversial for many reasons, so I'm just putting my stance on it: I don't like it, I feel like it has a tendency to make it about jester somehow "fixing" caleb and her being the saviour he needs, but my main reasoning is the age gap. We don't know jester's age but we do know she's most likely in her early twenties (like 21/22, probably 23 at the oldest) and caleb is in his mid-thirties. Regardless of anything else, the age gap alone makes me dislike this ship (and, for the same reason, fjord/jester, because although seeing two people who actually have the chemistry irl convey it in game, there's that gap in age that's kinda disturbing)
lastly we have beauyashter, aka jestyabeau, aka beau/jester/yasha. i think in the beginning of the campaign i was big for yasha/beau, just because I'd never seen one, let alone two wlw main characters (pcs) in a big thing before, and i was just searching for some content, but it died down, as I don't tend to actively ship things, and so it became about the whole found family dynamic (my fav. trope and one of the reasons i love dnd) however i saw someone shipping jes and beau together and instantly got on board, and then i saw these three? and honestly, the idea that a polyam wlw trope could actually feasibly happen in something??? and something as big as /critical role/????? i wouldn't be disappointed at all if it didn't happen but the fact that there's even the smallest chance it actually could is wild to me and i love it and would definitely love to see it play out if the ladies of cr chose to take it in that direction
