I have spent quite literally all day - a fuLL twelve+ hours - reading a 200k critical role fic that I think rewrote my brain chemistry
it was. well it's canon compliant up through 137 and then takes a stunning detour but it hits so many of the same emotional beats as the actual finale of the campaign to be roughly equivalent but it's more....complete, somehow. because cr is great but it is, fundamentally, a game, and that means nothing is really ever tied up neatly. but to take the same basic emotional beats, extend them into a full narrative that comes to a satisfying conclusion while taking nothing away from the source material and in fact incorporating emerging canon seamlessly is just...
idk it's interesting as a microcosm of how transformative works...well, work. because it doesn't exist without the source material but it extends it in a way that provides a degree of closure that the source material doesn't really provide - and can't provide because of the nature of the medium.
anyway this was the fic if anyone's interested https://archiveofourown.org/works/31382297

something something trans veth something something nott's goblin body being afab for the extra fuck you misery of having a "female" body but it's a goblin and her halfling body being amab something something loving the body you're born with rather than a body that is the correct agab but isn't yours something something transmografication could have given her her ideal body but she chooses instead to get her own back, the same body that loved and was loved by yeza

liam: actually you can’t move on past your trauma because it’s part of you you can’t just put it down and get over it
also liam: extended scene of caleb coming to terms with the fact that frumpkin isn’t his frumpkin, the cat he had as a kid that he was trying to cling to, and one way or another, once they’re finished with aeor, he will release the familiar, thereby both symbolically and physically releasing the hold the past has on him
I love that liam does these little character bits because a lot of the players only play off each other which like that’s fine and great but liam’s little solo bits give such a.... a richness and depth to his characters. like. I don’t know what fjord’s thinking!! I don’t know how he’s coping because travis doesn’t like....invite the audience/the other players into fjord’s head. and that’s not a bad thing at all because yknow his character is entirely made of observable action. the other characters don’t know what’s going on fjord’s head so the players and the audience don’t get to know either.
anyway idk I just think it’s so interesting how on talks liam will be like “oh yeah he loves his friends but if the right temptation comes along who knows” but when it comes down to the decisions he makes in-game, it’s nearly always on the side of healing. like part of that is narrative expediency and some of that is knowing that it’s a game and a show and there’s no way they’re beating an archmage with three of them on little to no spells, but also....he left. he countered trent’s counter instead of staying to kill trent (which he obviously couldn’t have done but yknow trauma or whatever). I thought that was gonna be It yknow, one or the other, but he let it go.
