Love how excited Karlach is to do the dryad love test. Marika is just having the time of her life indulging her big tiefling gf having a fun day at the circus.
"How about a really mean goat?" This is extra funny to me since Marika's top wildshape is the deep rothe that headbutts people to death. You already have a really mean goat!
Super cute. The way Karlach smiles at her at the end!
Arms from behind. The scent of flowers, and a soft wind at my ear. "But not alone."
"I'll hurt you. Let me go."
Her arms squeeze tighter. "No."
"I can't do this anymore. Let me go." My stars burn the tears away, but my voice is high and wavering, the words tumbling over each other as I start to shudder. I'm falling apart. "Please just let me go."
"I can't. If you leave us like this, you'll have to take me too."
"That's not—" I can't see anything now. There's just light and, her voice."
This happens moments after Keith comes to the realization that he’s in love with her.
He’s so overcome with emotion all he can do is scoop her up in his arms and hold onto her so tight, he feels his heart might burst.
That just a few months prior he was so alone, so lost...then he found someone else who was alone too, that shared his uneasyness. It wasn’t long before they let down their walls and let all that worry and strife and fear flow out of them. They became friends. Soon they got closer and that’s when he realized.....
The morning after?! She's so fuckin cute I can't -
Also Marika calling her a singing bird is probably the most adorable thing, double cute points coming from a druid. And the fact that Karlach was just so fucking excited to wake up next to her that she had to run laps around camp about it.
The little "Wheyyy" at the end she's the best.
They didn't say 'I love you' at this point though. Marika is 123 years old, has spent most of it alone and this is her first relationship ever. She's not dropping the big L word just yet. (Please tell me I can say it to her later tho? Pls. I would scream it from the rooftops.)
The druid treehouse answer is adorable. Her response is adorable. That's their canon retirement to me now.
And now she's about to cry, and I'm about to cry, and this whole night has been so emotional and -
This is a wonderfully powerful sentiment and beautiful heart wrenching moment, but NO that will NOT be the last thing you do! We are gonna save you and fix your engine and live the dream life in that treehouse with Scratch and the owlbear and Yenna and Grub and have a happily ever after!
Fytz is a sweetheart. I love that we got to meet one of Karlach's old besties. And she invited us to dinner with the family!
I love Karlach's lil smile. She's just so happy with her. And Marika's immediate head swivel on being called beautiful like that. And then Fytz agrees!
Just a really wholesome interaction I didn't expect to have while sword shopping.
