I've been procrastinating on rewatching the end of episode 140 because it's so emotional, but god it's so worth it, whiplash and all, to watch the Nein triumph against Lucien after such a long and harrowing fight, revivify Caleb, fail to raise Molly and feel the heartbreak all over again, then *succeed* in raising Molly against insane odds, and then Molly is brand new and empty - but not bad empty, empty like a blank page is empty, ready to hold new stories, and he remembers-but-doesn't, god, what a rollercoaster.

Bonus points for Taliesin - self-described chaos gremlin who has said in a number of instances that Molly himself wouldn't want to come back - being the one to make the Divine Intervention as Caduceus, fulfilling the return of the Nein's lost friend while also making him anew. And the cast making Taliesin talk to himself. And Matt getting to "be in the room" of the scene as Essek and participate in-character in both the grief and the celebration.

And how then, there were nine of them.

There were nine of them!!!

I am cackling at the idea that orym may have ever heard anything about the Wildemount Wildlings camp because an air ashari kid went there, just this bonkers ass camp were a kid fucking died and then people still kept attending. funniest tangential connection between campaigns imo

Also, you know Orly loves working for Fjord and Jester now, because when they first met him, he had a lot of fun annoying the other patrons in the bar with his bagpipes. They are his ideal bosses tbh.

I am of the opinion Caleb hasn’t returned to Eiselcross, to the T-dock, as of the reunion. He hasn’t gone back to Blumenthal, either.

But for those six months, he’s in Rexxentrum, teaching part-time, fielding the pointed suggestions from both Astrid and Beau to push ahead, to make inroads on their common goals. He has his cottage in the style of Bren’s home, though it’s a self-described front, a farce of a sort for his private tutoring and the entrance to his magical tower. On occasion he might look to the direction he knows lies the distant farmlands, the sweep of pasture and orchards at the feet of the mountains, and think, I’m not ready. Not yet.

He writes more letters: happier ones, now, more hopeful. Articulate and optimistic regarding the change he means to bring to the empire, about the man he can see himself becoming. Struggles, surmountable. Not unlike the conversations he had on the eve of his departure to the Academy those many years ago. 

But no, he’s not quite ready yet.

the battle with Ukie is so much i would have to rewatch this episode multiple times

[pleasantmsp]

Been rewatching some of the Mighty Nein campaign cause I was missing them and also I'm excited for their one shot soon! I've seen a few people speculating about the one shot so thought I'd put my thoughts out into the void as well.

I honestly don't know at all what to expect from this one shot. I don't even remember what the description was beyond that it has to do with the apogee solstice stuff. I haven't kept up much with campaign 3 for my own reasons that I don't need to get into now. However, I did actually watch a couple of the episodes during the solstice and got lucky with watching the ep with beau and caleb in it. But otherwise, I barely know what's going on. I have no idea what the M9 will be dealing with. My theories include anything from getting Beau and Caleb back and dealing with cultists along the way to dealing with the Cerberus Assembly's/Ludinus' attachments to this whole thing to stopping Tharizdun or some other entity from doing some fuck shit. Honestly, I don't fucking know man. I don't even really think any of that shit will happen.

I don't know if it's been confirmed that Caduceus is gonna be the one in this one shot but I really hope it is him. One of the things that's been bothering me about this arc from the BH perspective (at least that I've seen) is that none of them or any that they've come across has been able to argue for the side of the gods and the good that some of them can do. As someone who really likes the worldbuilding and rp that gods can bring to settings like this, not having that perspective represented has been disappointing for me. (This is not the fault of the cast or their guests or anything like that, that is not what I'm saying. It is their choice what characters they play and it is Matt's choice as the DM which NPCs/areas they come across in wherever they decide to explore. I'm just mentioning my own preference and feelings as it pertains to the one shot which is what I'm talking about). Anyway, I hope it's Caduceus because I think he will bring an incredibly interesting perspective on this whole thing. And I think Fjord will too but not to the extent that Cad can since Cad and his family grew up as worshippers of Melora.

We don't know the fate of Beau and Caleb and while I don't think they're dead, I really hope they aren't gone for most of this one shot. Beau is my favorite character in any media ever. I fucking love Beau so much. And Beauyasha is my favorite couple, I love them. I will be literally so sad if Marisha isn't playing Beau for this one shot. Like I'll understand but also I will indeed be devastated. Beauyasha is like my Roman Empire (this joke will be aging this post LMAO but its a good comparison honestly), I think about them A LOT. I want to see more content from them. I was at SDCC, I was there when Ashley said she felt like she wasn't fully finished with Yasha and that's exactly how I feel. The Mighty Nein's story was so good but the way it ended felt so long and then so abrupt (but that's another post). I will always be wanting more of Beau and Yasha's story. I want to know as much as Marisha and Ashley are willing to give us. So I hope the one shot starts with Beau and Caleb and how they reunite with the Nein and then get to business. Or even better, with them already reunited for maximum Nein time.

Those are my main two thoughts for now. I actually need to go to bed cause I got work in the morning and it's been kicking my ass these last two weeks so imma cut it there and check back tomorrow. If you somehow see this, I hope you enjoyed my ramblings lol

So I

Anyway, The Mighty Nein slogan, inspired by M9 Reunited Part 1, Jungle Finding Bonanza.
