Hey! I saw your post/art about Dren. Could you tell me more about them? They look so cool!
Hi! Yes of course! I wasn't expecting such attention, haha. I appreciate it. Thank you for asking! I love to ramble about my OCs.
Dren (he/they), was born and raised in Cyrodiil. Following some unfortunate mishap, he finds himself in Morrowind. It's a place Dren always wanted to visit because of their ancestry, but it's clear that he isn't welcomed there. So he begins working alongside Caius as a mean to find a way back home; although they never considered Cyrodiil to be a place where they really belong.
Of course following the events of Morrowind, he accidently finds himself to be chosen as Nerevarine, which he had taken has a joke from the start. As the story progresses, Dren begins however to take in the importance of their role, and slowly, literally transforms into this prophetised hero.
By literally, I mean that in my own canon, the soul of Nerevar is still very much present and very much haunting the Ring, and takes over Dren's body and mind as their adventure progresses. (I do want to add that Nerevar is in no way a malevolent being— the whole thing is in neither's power).
I think Dren is one of my most tragic OCs; he is a nobody who dreamed of becoming somebody important, to finally find their place in the world. Alas when this happens, he forgets his own identity and gets replaced by someone he is not, eventually left to be erased and forgotten as a person from history. They're one of my few OCs who don't get a happy ending, unfortunately.

C2E26 - Found & Lost - rewatch/reaction
(this is a critical role reaction ms. I only see the tags after I read the post and I don’t use xkit :P)
This episode is almost five hours long noooooo……. I don’t know if I’m going to have the attention span for this! And I don’t want to take a week to watch the episode in chunks, especially because I want to do my Molly wrap up…. (hindsight….yeah, it took about a week, oh well)
(also hindsight, this post got LONG despite not getting too much into the Molly death. OOOPS. Hindsight from like an hour or so later, this post is SO SO FUCKING LONG I’m sorry!! I ramble so MUCH)
The most annoying thing so far about starting this episode is that at some point I was at about an hour into it, and so anytime I bring the episode up, it automatically starts at an hour in and I have to keep bringing it back to the beginning. DON’T DO THIS TO ME PLS.
BLUE LIGHTING IN THE STUDIO it looks to much better imo
...Matt has a tiny speck of glitter below his lip. This will probably distract me way too much. Also, hello FLIES. You’ll be around for a bit!
I really like the voice that Marisha does in this bit. I -think- it’s the Transatlantic accent that used to be used all the time in the US, but I’m honestly not sure.
The good news is that the glitter isn’t visible once they’re all on screen. The bad news is that I’m probably going to be distracted this episode by being thirsty for Liam.
I forgot how terrible their rolls were for the investigation! No kidding they’re not even gonna know that Jester and Fjord are missing XD
NATURAL TWENTY and frumpkin will never be useful at perception checks ever again (I only somewhat kid, but I adore frumpkin anyway)
KEEEEEGGGGGG!!!!! I love Keg I love Keg so hard!!! (also I totally thought we also got Nila this episode, but I guess not. Sumalee has done on screen work, so she’s probably who Matt was referring to in regards to scheduling) (also Ashly is adorable and for some reason I can just TOTALLY see her as Keg, despite describing someone who is physically in a very different structure than herself. Also ALSO yay for letting hair go gray naturally and showing off that it can look damn good! [granted that’s totally an assumption and maybe she dyes it])
I thiiink this may be my favorite introduction to a guest PC in both campaigns. Not favorite guest PC, that goes to Sprigg, but favorite pure chaos of the meeting.
Yup, still not a fan of Molly making choices that other people have already made their own (Nott introducing herself as Jeff and then Molly immediately telling her true name anyway).
First abandonment of mounts!!! ...awww, now I miss the moorbounders.
Not much to say during the Ankheg battle aside from one – oops foreshadowing Molly’s death, and two – as someone who is not really familiar with all rules of DnD, especially for a lot of classes, it seems like dual wielding is always the best choice for melee because you get three attacks per round. Does dual wield have less damage than not? There’s got to be some advantage for NOT dual wielding, otherwise it seems like it would always be a handicap to not be. YAY FOR NOT KNOWING SHIT.
Yes, I’m one of the viewers who watches but does not play. Granted, I am trying to play, but I am really reluctant to just join a random online group so am trying to find in person people to play with. And of course since I’m having a rough time, but several people who would be interested in at least trying out a one shot, I need to DM it. Yeeeeyyyy……
Matt is so excited to have the lights changing for battle and rest, oh just you wait!! It’s gonna get EVEN BETTER.
Also they keep talking about healing and potions and oh dear the foreshadowing. It never gets as bad as the Vax foreshadowing was (because OMG that Vax foreshadowing was constant and heavy!), but it’s still there.
I wonder if they ever use the sac of acid/venom they collected. Can’t remember it. Also, first Keg is aroused! And it wasn’t even for combat!
Oh, they just become ‘vials of acid’, not anything specific. WAIT. Beau gets one. IS THIS WHAT SHE USES TO SLOWLY KILL THE GUARD ON TOP OF THE SANATORIUM?????
Yeah, so they DO meet the Firbolg family! But not Nila. Well, I got some of it right.
Lol at Matt trying to make this sound as creepy and evil and foreboding as possible when it’s just a woman giving a boy soup.
Yes, they did call out short rest. Glad Matt allows it, they mentioned it several times.
Alright, I’m gonna be kinda gushy for a second. Liam is FANTASTIC at his physical embodiment of his PCs even when he is not ‘actively’ RPing. While I’m already forgetting a lot of C1, I remember feeling that Vax just listening to someone looked very different than Caleb listening to someone, and Caleb listening to someone looks very different that his C3 PC listening to someone. And it’s very subtle. And I saw online people being so complementary to Liam for scratching his arms as Caleb and how IC it was (this is back during my first watch), and I was like, the dude probably just has itchy arms and incorporated that into the character, but then I didn’t see Vax scratch his arms. I didn’t see C3 PC scratch his arms. I didn’t see various one shot PCs scratch their arms either. So I went from really appreciating a lot but assuming it was standard Liam RP to being REALLY impressed by his physicality. And it is something which I feel that only Matt really gets into to that degree? Like, Matt is FANTASTIC at physical embodiment and keeping in it. I feel like Marisha and Laura are tied next on the list, but they also easily break the embodiment during note taking or funny moments, whereas I feel like Matt and Liam are able to keep from breaking more often. Travis I think is next on my list, followed by Taliesin and Ashley, and ending at Sam. Sam is a fantastic RPer for sure, and obviously amazing at improv, but Scanlan’s listening face, Nott’s listening face, and his C3 PC’s listening face I feel all just end up looking like Sam listening. THIS IS HARDLY A BAD THING. Honestly, it’s what I’d expect from everyone! Active RP when the PCs are talking or in a scene, but the player’s expressions during narrative moments or descriptions. But this episode is just reminding me of how many of these guys are so thoroughly invested and also trained to be actively in the moment, even when they’re not doing anything.
In hindsight, they say a variation of ‘making my way’ a LOT. They haven’t started the running bit yet, but it’s in my head every time, and holy crap is it a verbal crutch for a lot of them! XD
Molly actually references tea way more than I thought he did! It gives me a little half-giggle every time, considering how Cad’s thing ended up being the tea. (I have a sneaking suspicious that Taliesin just really likes tea, not that I can blame him!)
I find it entertaining that even now, about half a year or so into the second campaign, and Liam accidentally slips into Vax for a moment.
Nott and Keg are best combination, omg
See, with all of Molly’s lying at this point, especially to the crew, I honestly can’t tell if he’s doing another lying about the royalty scam so that he can hear Beau’s story, or if he’s actually opening up a bit and starting to be truthful. It honestly can go either way, but this is a problem with a character who lies all the time. If you’re not constantly insight checking, then how are you to know? And considering that this ends up essentially making Kingsley? Yeah. I’m not upset about it, but I just want to know if it was intended to be true or not. And I feel like finding out now or during the wrapup would almost lead it to the risk of possibly being retconned if Taliesin wanted there to be some sort of poeticness to it.
It is interesting and kinda poignant that Beau and Molly did start finally opening up to each other right before he died. Like, even if Molly was lying about the story, what he said about how he felt about his past matches with what he said under the Zone of Truth spell, and it SEEMED to be an honest story. This moment is really more about how it ended up impacting Beau, but had Molly not died it would have been an interesting start of a change in the relationship.
OOOOF. FUCKING OOOOF. Okay, this soliloquy from Caleb hits a LOT different after the wrap up. The first time I watched it, I enjoyed it but I also kinda felt that it was just a bit too self-indulgent? Like, yeah, okay, good to know how Caleb feels, but Liam isn’t gonna just go have him walk off. EXCEPT LIAM WAS SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING IT!!!!!!!! During the wrap up (and I think during Talks later on), Liam talks about he was genuinely thinking of having Caleb leave MULTIPLE times, and was already discussing it with Matt and how it could work. So this right here??? THIS IS GENUINELY LIAM CONSIDERING!!!!! And how HARD would this scene have fucking hit if he ended up deciding that Caleb WOULD leave and a few episodes later (maybe once Travis and Laura were back?) Caleb skips out and a new PC comes in!!!! Or if the Trent sub-plot came in after this arc, Liam 100% shared how if Trent came in sooner Caleb was more likely to return to his old ways and end up becoming an antagonist!!!! And with all that knowledge, this scene hits FUCKING HARD omg. AND NONE OF THE OTHER PLAYERS KNEW. Oh god, would it have been as much of a betrayal as Scanlan/Tary? I don’t think so, at least not PC-wise. But TABLE-wise??? I think it would have been as much of a ‘betrayal’ as Sam did, even though the PCs weren’t together as long.
Once again, the Suggestion from Caleb reads a lot scarier in hindsight, it’s easy to see Bren peeking through in that moment, guaranteeing getting the information they need no matter the cost. (also why am I okay with this and not Molly using spells? Again, it’s because Caleb’s is on NPCs or guest PCs, whereas Molly is on PCs. It’s protagonist centered morality which I’m fine with that view during DnD campaigns)
I almost want to see a compilation video off all the times Caleb goes Bren, but it’s somewhat subjective and would probably be difficult as hell to make. (also super time consuming)
Also, I really like Matt’s decision here to give Ashly a bunch of information about the slavers and have it be WRONG. It very much makes sense of what Keg would know! I also like how the reaction to spells such as Charm Person, Suggestion, etc, all seem to have different reactions depending on the player they are impacting, because each player interprets it differently. It adds a personal flavor it it that I really appreciate.
Huh, we don’t have much longer with Molly. Does Molly not try to take the gun from Nott telling her that she’s not responsible? Did I make this up?? I swear it happened, this is the instance I was referring to when I was annoyed at Taliesin rather than Molly, because just because you made Percy doesn’t mean you can prevent anyone else from using a gun. But it’s not happening. Did Caduceus do it??? *checks critrole transcripts* OH HEY apparently I only needed to wait 17 minutes XD WELL NO NEED TO REACT TO IT LIVE I already explained my feelings here XD
While I have no problems with how the combat itself played out (that sounds bad. NOT referring to the death, but to the strategy), I’ve seen people complain that Nott should have been involved in the combat and not trying to free people from the cages, and that’s why Molly died. What I’ll say to that is that MOLLY is the one who repeatedly suggests that Nott free people from the cages. Like, REPEATEDLY. It’s the focus of Molly’s planning! So it’s not the same situation as when Sam leaned into the RP of Nott being scared and not going through the water leading to them being down a player in the fight. Instead, this was something that had been decided tactically beforehand, and unfortunately just ended up playing out to a rough ending.
God, this is like the ONE OF TWO TIMES that the Nein is good at planning shit, and it all turns out pretty much worse can scenario. Well, I guess they kill one of the baddies I think. The only other good planning is with the Intuit charges to take down most of the Tomb Takers. At least – that’s what I remember! It’ll be fun to see if any other good planning moments come up that I just can’t remember!
Huh, I was wondering why Liam was being weird about Taliesin suggesting Fireball. It wasn’t like, Caleb backstory weird. So I looked it up. It’s episode 26. Caleb doesn’t get or use Fireball until episode 32. So I guess he’s in the weird aspect of trying to RP as Caleb who doesn’t know what Molly is referring to when Molly is telling Caleb to use Fireball, also Liam maybe feeling the whole fact of that he likes to RP at least his first use of a spell, so even if he did have Fireball maybe he would have wanted to RP the moment of Caleb using it for the first time versus the team magically already knowing he had it? OR MAYBE I’M READING TOO MUCH INTO IT. I have mixed feelings about this moment for what I recognize are utterly bullshit reasons. I really love Liam’s RP, Caleb’s my favorite PC, I’m not big on Molly, so rather than just brush off a moment at the table where I can’t even know what’s going on because it’s all facial expressions, instead I’m reading too much into it and getting ‘protective’ over Liam. ….at least I recognize that I’m being dumb as shit for this?
LOL Caleb actually tells Beau that he doesn’t know Fireball when she brings it up too, but I missed it because the main conversation is with Keg and Nott while the Empire Kids are muttering in the background.
...I said I wasn’t gonna talk about the gun bit, but I am just a tiny bit. ONE – I love that they end up staring directly at Matt during the bit like ‘DAAAAAAD’. Two – I’m sure Sam was fine with it, but hoo boy yeah does it annoy me. I dunno, it just seems like bad Table etiquette? Like, don’t be a dick about your friend’s loot. At least I’m consistent with this, I don’t like hearing about rogues stealing from other party members and similar things. ...at least inter-party. Guests are a different thing XD That’s something I appreciate with Nott. Even with her big confession of “I’VE STOLEN FROM ALL OF YOU” towards the end of the campaign, she really hasn’t? Like, she ‘stole’ a ring from Jester (who had her eyes closed and let her), and the biggest thing is she tried to steal Fjord’s academy letter. Maybe I’ve forgotten, but I legit don’t remember her stealing anything else from the party. (again, not counting shakaste and guests) Bah, looking at the wiki didn’t help. ANYHOW it’s just a personal preference thing for table play, but it’s something that I’m sure was fine at their table.
Beau running through the plan twice almost has the same type energy as when she was putting together the stuff with Lucien and the Tomb Takers!
AAAAA they’re teasing Matt about having a map available and Marisha says ‘he’s a witch Sam, you know this’ and Sam says ‘can he float’ NO NOT YET BUT WAIT TIL HOT BOI
Also I mentioned it early, but fuuuuck there are a lot of little foreshadowing moments during this episode. Mostly because they’re going into a super tough fight, so they always tend to joke about them all dying ANYWAY, but always hits harder when it happens.
Huh, they still have the map compass and the initiative tracker. The compass maybe they used throughout but it’s just so unobtrusive that I didn’t notice it? Also I feel like they don’t tend to say directions, but I may have forgotten. The tracker I KNOW will go at some point.
Oh shit I forgot that it’s snowing or about to be snowing when Molly dies and the after bit. That’s super beautiful and poignant, but also just one more thing of things seeming like planned when it’s pure coincidence.
I’m surprised how many times they reference Clarota. Like, it was a decent NPC, but he didn’t feel all THAT memorable to me? I wonder if it’s because maybe it was the first NPC they had where they had befriended him and then he turned on them? Or since it was the very start of the stream that he’s more memorable because the starting of the stream is memorable? Or maybe I’m just not invested in an NPC that they are super into. *shrugs*
Wait. Okay, so Matt’s bringing the Shepards on to the map now, and Marisha goes ‘those look like our dead horses!’, clearly a joke because of the minis, but that REMINDED ME. They should have three horses during this ambush!! Like, we can assume that the party hitched them further up the road to be hidden, but it was just completely forgotten from the entire planning throughout.
Fuuuck, I forgot how clutch that Slow spell was! 4 of 6 failed! Druid and Lorenzo still up. I wonder how differently this fight would have gone had they gotten slowed too?
LOL they’re talking about how they’re still proud of having Vorugal fight the Yenk. This ALL went over my head entirely during the first watch! Talking about Umbrasyl too… this is why I don’t mind watching C2 first though, because by the time I got around to watching C1, I’d forgotten this shit anyway!
I understand why Ashly is making the narrative decision that she is doing, not sure how I feel about it. Kinda the same mixed feelings that I had when Sam sat out a combat for RP. Molly’s already pretty damn injured at this point, so I’m not even sure if her making these choices had any difference in how the combat would have played out. Paying close attention to this now out of curiosity. Okay, her first attack would have missed regardless of the disadvantage, judging by Sam and Taliesin’s faces on her first roll. And her second attack she’s shaking her head again after the first roll. So her first round of combat done WITHOUT her self-imposed penalties would still have missed both attacks. The only thing that could be brought into question would be if she would still attack Protto or someone else if she wasn’t doing the ‘fear’ aspect of it. Lorenzo’s already prepping cone of cold, so would not have changed for her attacking him. And based on her RP of it, she may have gone for Protto regardless?
OOOOOO I forgot Slow got dispelled!!!
I FORGOT THE CONE OF COLD WAS JUST BARELY OUT OF REACH OF CALEB
41 cold damage. Caleb could have legit died this battle if he was any closer holy shit. I forgot how actually terrible this battle was
oh FUCK when dwelma goes down and marisha is planning what to do, taliesin say to hit dwelma while she’s down and help her bleed out. OH THE FUCKING FORESHADOWING OUCH (also his hp counter is showing 14, but I think it’s only actually 4 right now? These counters are so useless)
Yup, ‘cause now Molly goes down. It’s odd, because it feels very anticlimatic? But it’s also a case of it only feels that way ‘cause I knew it was coming, both times. If I was watching this live? Fucking shocking. (also also, yup. Ashly playing Keg at full disadvantage did literally nothing to impact the fight one way or the other. It would have played out the same if she hadn’t gone for it because of poor die rolls, and because Lorenzo, even from the beginning, made it kinda clear that he would attack her ally to punish her, rather than attack her directly.) (also also also, Matt changed blood maledict again. Here it was two at level five and three at level nine, current balance is two at level six and three at level thirteen)
There will be lots of thoughts about Molly and resurrection and Taliesin’s initial thoughts and stuff in my wrap up, not going to go into any of it here.
I didn’t notice it the first time around, but Matt’s voice is audibly shaking when he’s asking for Molly’s last words. And now after Molly is dead and Matt has to continue the combat??? I really didn’t see how hard this must have been for him at the time.
I’ve now seen the behind the scenes photo of Taliesin holding Dani from when he went offstage. Honestly, regardless of my feelings for Molly, now and even first time around, I felt HORRIBLE for Taliesin! Especially with knowing just how long he planned this PC for, and as much as the backstory didn’t exist, I’m sure he thought for ages about those two years that he did know, how it would have worked, the relationships he would have formed, scams he would have pulled, etc. etc. And what’s even WORSE is knowing that Taliesin and Liam were on deadline crunch for an art book, and so he couldn’t even really take proper time to himself to mourn! And it IS mourning.
I’m kind of glad that the two permanent deaths we’ve had so far have been with players who were more experienced with DnD. Liam played in high school and then had been DMing for his kids at home even during C1, and Taliesin of course had been playing for ages. It doesn’t make it any better, but it almost sort of kind of does? Just...almost better equipped for it, in a way. And Vax’s death was at the very end of a campaign, so for a death to occur early campaign? Taliesin was honestly probably the best one for it to happen to. Marisha I think could have worked as well, because I know she was playing DnD before the homegame started, so she’s in the top three of most experienced at the table. UGH I JUST FEEL SO BAD FOR HIM, even though this was yeaaars ago now!!! And we know he comes back (kind of, eventually) and before that becomes the second best antagonist of the campaign!!! But I still feel so awful for Taliesin for this moment.
Though I also suppose for any CHARACTER for this to have happened to, it’s also for the best? At least thinking of players and their backstories, Molly had the least …. I don’t want to say ‘developed’, but I can’t think of a better term. He was a PC who was impacted by his backstory the least, has the least interest in it. Not sure how it would have turned out with Lucien hunting down Molly’s body, but he was the most disinterested. I mean, if Nott had died, we’d never have found out about Veth. If Fjord had died, we’d never have Uk’otoa (at least not to the same level). Beau’s backstory is tiny little drips and drabs out, we know nothing about Yasha, Caleb we have about half the story. I guess Jester, technically, because she didn’t really have a big GOAL aside from find her dad and see the world?
I cannot understand what Liam mutters to Marisha before he leaves the table. I know she asks for some more booze, but I just can’t make out what he said. I’ve read comments before that he maybe was doing a quick check in on Taliesin to make sure he was okay. It’s a very nice thought, so I’m hoping that it’s true. ...but Liam also does seem to have the smallest bladder, so it could have been that too.
Nothing to break the tension like Marisha saying Keg instead of Lorenzo, and then saying Beau instead of Molly. Nice little giggle!
I hate the fact that after Matt called the session, they have to literally take a moment to tell the fans not to flip the fuck out on the players for not playing to perfection. Watching live for C3, I get to see that yeah...there’s a part of this fanbase that’s just fucking NUTS.
Oh the video stutters right at the end. :( And little lol at Matt saying they have one fucking villain now for the campaign. Oh matt. You thought you could keep lorenzo alive. LOL (it’s okay, Lucien as the villain works out super well!)
Next post – my Mollymauk breakdown. No clue when this will come out, I have a lot to write about, and I didn’t want to start it with partial information so I waited until this episode is done. I’ll still write it soon though, because I’m not going to let myself watch the next episode until I’m done!! (just gotta figure out if I’m going to watch Talks before or after the write up. ...probably before, I think.)

Match-Up : Ikemen Sengoku
@nad-zeta
Hi there love! I hope you are doing well! Can i please request a ikemen sengoku matchup. ^0^
❤🥰 i am a aries, infp, Hufflepuff female 🦊 i am shy and difficult to get to know (apparently it took me 2 months to start opening up to my friends, ooops), i tend to bottle up my emotions, my friends would likely describe me as incredibly stubborn, gentle, kind, over dramatic, goofy and fun loving. I am pretty aloof and blunt, i like i will 9/10 times tell you to your face how if feel about you if you ask 🙈once u are part of my inner circle i am playful, teasing, i am an extremely sarcastic person that makes snarky remarks under my breath and my kind of humor is a bit of dark and self deprecating. I will definitely be the person making jokes at inappropriate times and something about inappropriate things (its one of my coping mechanisms) 😂 I love my friends and family and will fight anyone how threatens them, although when it comes to me you can do or say anything to me and i wont do anything (I honestly cant stand up for myself). I swear like a sailor although i am trying to get that under control, however the road rage is real.
i love nature and animals (i love my lil bunnies and dogs), i love working out/going to the gym #gym is life (it is one of my coping mechanisms and has helped me slowly overcome an eating disorder)😂
i enjoy cooking (i am now officially a chef), wine tasting (fancy way of saying getting very tipsy of different wines most nights), spending time with friends (especially if there is tea to be spilt) although i do need lots of alone time to recharge my social battery, i like conspiracies, reading, writing (Fanfics and im busy with my Masters in nutrition >“<), romcoms, and sleeping. As much as i love spending time outdoor i also enjoy lazing around the house being a lazy potato. I definitely zone out and daydream all the freaken time
I tend to blush easily which i hate 🙈 My face will give away what i am thinking. i enjoy my own alone time and i definitely dont like crowds and loud sounds (ie you will never find me in a club). I am a picky eater despite my degree in cooking (i basically only eat candy, carbs and protein), i love cuddles although i look like someone that wouldn’t. Ive been told i come across as calm and confident, while in truth on the inside i am really scared and insecure. I am incredibly awkward when it comes to boys and have been told my sarcastic comments are x100 when i talk to them (oops).
I am very go with the flow, and i never burn my bridges 🙈 i am very forgive and forget🦊, like no matter how badly you hurt me.
🙈 Thanx so much dear ❤ Sorry if this is TMI🔥Cant wait to see who i get matched with 🌈🎀
✦ ✧ ✦ ✧ ✦
oh chica, i absolutely adore you just by this description.
i definitely had a fun time sorting out who i think would best compliment your personality & it was most certainly a tough one to settle on but in the end there must only be one~
i hope you enjoy it!

↪ GUIDELINES
✦ ✧ ✦ ✧ ✦
ー SHINGEN TAKEDA : TIGER OF KAI

after long debate i can see you and shingen as being a very favorable pair.
for starters, while you might not believe it you do have some very parallel personality traits (especially those based on your star signs!!).
you both have a rather optimistic disposition and a value for honest because shingen has never lied he just avoids answering questions.
additionally, you are both very difficult to get to know, as you have a tendency to bottle up your true feelings or are too shy and reserve to open up.
besides you being a beautiful woman, that would intrigue shingen even more. he wants to know why lies behind that quiet & guarded mask, to see what’s in your mind.
your dark humor & self-deprecating jokes would certainly concern him at first, especially because a “goddess such as you should never doubt yourself”.
i feel like what you said on being awkward around the menfolk would make you somewhat resistant to his flirt.
and by resistant i mean you turn red in a full blown blush and completely withdraw on yourself. you’d be lucky to get out a thank you or might completely bat the compliment off with a snarky comment ( and we’re on the inappropriately timed jokes too! ).
everything he learns about you is something new and surprising & he would be absolutely enthralled with you.
you’re a chef from your time? he’d love to watch you cook and savour whatever meal you’d be so generous as to let him taste.
you love to write & read? conspiracy theories? he would ask you all about what you read, what you’re interested in writing, and even indulge you as you ramble on about your favorite conspiracies.
then there’s your protective nature.
you take insults or things against you without batting an eye, but the moment someone insults him or any of those you care for, suddenly a warrioress comes out in you like he’s never seen.
you’re shy one day and another you’re so straight forward with him, he values that courage, even if you do not see it, and how honest you are. he admires honesty.
finding out you swear like a sailor would surprise him the most.
he has such a fondness for this young, gentle, and very fun & loving women and sudden she’s in the garden, profanities leaving her mouth in a never ending string after stubbing her toe ( can’t tell me that it doesn’t hurt enough NOT to swear ).
this man would have to do a double take just to make sure his eyes & ears weren’t deceiving him.
shingen would absolutely tease you about that later, how such an angel could have such strong words.
your passion and dedication to your work is something else shingen would find admirable, as he understands having a love of something you do & the beauty of being able to create it.
he is super attentive & always watching over for you and your moods.
you’re upset? he can see it in everything you do.
tired out and need a little you time? he’ll arrange for you to be undisturbed for a time and offer to bring you sweets to snack on & a book to enjoy your alone time with.
you are his angel of beauty and kindness, his goddess of ever compassionate forgiveness, and everything he comes to hold so dearly, meaning he will shower you endlessly with compliments & gifts if nothing more than to see you smile.
at kasuyagama you’re the castle’s mediator, as your personality seems to lean more towards peace & calm.
all that really means is you end up stopping shingen from teasing kenshin & keeping kenshin at best you can from being overly stabby.
i have to throw in that dates would be of the utmost importance to shingen with you.
he would have to take you to ever possible tea house to get you to try all of his favorite sweets and he would absolutely be abusing the fact you love them to against you to indulge you both.
yukimura would not be happy with either of you for constantly eating sweets & junk because it’s bad for your health and you need actual food to survive.
all. the. snuggles.
you have a favor for a calm & quiet atmosphere, so i can see you and shingen spending nights on the terrace in the cool evening air to admire the stars & moon.
correct me if i’m wrong, but you trapping shingen for morning cuddles? just five more minutes then you’ll let him go not really.
