Contrary to popular opinion, I don't want Laudna's real name to be Lorelei. Instead, I think it would be fucking hilarious if Marisha decided that her character's name pre-Sun Tree was Laura.

Just to fuck with Laura Bailey.

My favourite Critical Role verbal flubs:

‘Why a - why is you so mean to me???’

‘Snea snake’

‘Their brand new 5e setting, Aeorar. … Ayroawra. Auroara.’

‘Let’s make ourselves a bit more suspicious.’

‘Wildmother, please watch over the cast - the crew!’

‘Looks like I ganked your new Robbie - your new friend’s body!’

‘Shiver and quiff’

I could talk about the Pride and Prejudice (2005) “you have bewitched me body and soul” monologue for hours. The way he struggles to get his confession out of his mouth?? Because it’s the most raw proclamation he has EVER MADE in his WHOLE ENTIRE LIFE and it feels so wrong and indecent and is the antithesis to everything he IS and SHOULD BE?? But he’s standing in front of the woman he loves and he cannot bear it one SECOND longer if there is even the slightest chance that she may feel an inkling of the fire he feels for her,,, and the words finally come out like a gust of wind through the cracks of his breaking heart,,, in the most heartbreaking earth shattering whimper of love. Of chance. Of HOPE.

this misha collins shit is definitely wild but none of it compares to the absolute batshit insane energy this website had in like 2011 during the glee tour when dianna agron came out on stage wearing a “LIKES GIRLS” shirt, went radio silent immediately after and missed like three shows, and then posted that she “wore it because she’s a feminist”

CRITICAL ROLE vs. THE LEGEND OF VOX MACHINA

SCANBO (1x07) - PART 2

[urchin23]

I absolutely love how TLOVM is going out of its way to show that Keyleth’s  emotions are what make her powerful.

Throughput C1, Keyleth feels everything at 110%. Her righteous fury - toward the world for being the harsh place it is, toward Raishan - burns with the fire of a sun. She grieves deeply and achingly and angrily. She loves her friends with everything she has - is afraid to love Vax because she knows just how hard she’ll love him if she lets herself, what it could do to her. She doubts herself because she cares so much all the time. She cares about doing the right thing and is terrified of getting it wrong; she cares about being the leader the Ashari deserve; cares about meeting her own sky-high expectations of herself.

And after all the idiots back when C1 was airing complaining about Marisha making “““suboptimal””” choices to roleplay Keyleth’s emotions, after the dumb fucking complaints about her being ‘overemotional’ or ‘illogical’ or whatever… here’s TLOVM, where Keyleth is at her strongest when she lets herself feel everything.

A demon wolf threatens Vax, and she punches it away, fangs bared, full of protective rage. Terror for her friends, love for her friends, leads her to clutch-cast shields of thorns to save them from Brimsycthe, from the Briarwoods. She sees a rebel friend cut down and the camera zooms in on the grief in her eyes, followed by utter rage as she transforms into Minxie for the first time. She Skywrites the Whitestone crest with hope and delight in her eyes. She holds back an undead tide with a wall of ice, screaming and yelling.

And I’m just. So happy! I’m so happy that the show is letting Keyleth rage and shout when she’s angry, and be scared when she’s overwhelmed! I love that they’re illustrating how her deep sensitivity is the curse that makes her insecure… and the blessing that makes her care so fiercely that her spells can tie down a dragon, hold back a zombie horde.

This is the woman whose righteous anger will drive her to be a protector, whose ferocious caring will lead her to be the best possible leader of her people. TLOVM lets her scream and yell and be messy and full of feeling - and shows that even as it’s hard for her, even as she struggles to process her feelings, and even when her feelings lead her to clash with her friends, they are what makes her strong.

I love her so much. Just so, so much.

critters watching TLOVM and seeing the green dragon eye, the rug with the five-dragon emblem, black smoke pouring from Percy’s weapon, scattered mentions of “The Whispered One”, etc:
