some things never change

Man like with the Mighty Nein animated series getting teased and barely no news about about TLOVM S3, it’s just like yeah, sometimes hard to keep my excitement up and getting prepared for Vox Machina to just be ignored in favour of the Mighty Nein again, both by the company and by the fandom.

With VM being basically ignored in new merch (new M9 hoodie! Caduceus cardigan and Jester dress!) it does feel obvious where their focus lays and it does feel disenchanting if your favourite is C1.

It’s like when I first joined this fandom it was so exciting to be with a show producing new content for your interest, but now, eh.

Really conspiratorial part says s3 will be the last TLOVM season and they’ll just focus on M9, because of course they would.

I've seen quite a few people try to claim that they don't like C3 because it "villianized the Gods out of nowhere and makes it seem like some of the old pcs might have been on the wrong side of history consciously or not" and that's the DUMBEST thing I've heard in quite some time. If y'all genuinely thought the Gods are good then you clearly haven't been paying much attention to C1 and C2. The Gods have always been AWFUL, helpful and "nice" at certain times that suited them but AWFUL nonetheless. I'M BEGGING y'all to start developing some critical thinking skills because nothing related to the Gods in Exandria ever screamed GENUINE GOODNESS it was always the opposite. That said they're unfortunately useful and I don't think it would go too well for the people of Exandria if they all died all of a sudden but they shouldn't be confused for something Good and worth worshipping or loving, they're a necessary evil imo.

Worst mistake in TLOVM is not giving Percy his slutty boots and holster from the comics and even now I die on this hill

i have a theory

Dressed to the Neins - Vox Machina

It’s done, and I’m really pleased with how it turned out! From the back there’s something that feels very ‘early-mid 90s aviator covered in patches and graphics’, or even a little battle jacket-y, which wasn’t deliberate but I definitely don’t hate it!

Also it’s fully symmetrical top and bottom, so there’s no reason I can’t wear it with Grog and Vax at my shoulders sometimes if I want.

Here’s the link to the project page on Ravelry, which has some technical details of how I turned the squares into this cardi:

Lying awake at night once again because Percy was supposed to be a clockmaker once.

Season 3 release date when?

Beautiful cosplays by my wonderful friends. All characters belong to the cast of Critical Role.

I finished my rewatch/relisten of the Vox Machina campaign in mid-December (although I recently re-embarked on the second half of the Chroma Conclave arc hoping season 3 of TLVOM will be announced (released?? 🤞) by the time I reach "A Bard's Lament"). Predictably, I bawled, AGAIN, but by then I'd already been scribbling and sketching ideas for this for... a couple of weeks? Hence the little WIP preview last month.

I'll never shut up about this moment. It's just as beautiful as it's heartbreaking, in- and off-game, especially taking into account all the context of characters/people involved.

Also, bonus, because after I finished sketching that 6th frame I thought a hug was needed.

"You broke my heart." and all of ours as well 💔

Felt a little silly for not posting them all together :']

They broke the world for each other.

This one was first published about a month ago on my Patreon. I tried to imagine what kind of portrait would Delilah and Sylas commission a painter to decorate Castle Whitestone have they defeated Vox Machina. I love how they weaponize their sexiness alongside their sheer lack of empathy for everyone but themselves and their evil god to obliterate their enemies. Relationship goals, really.

Sylas and Delilah Briarwood were created by Matthew Mercer and are property of Critical Role.
