Yoyo! Could I get something with Cyrus and him having an obvious crush on a very elegant and dexterous party member! It's sad how little fics there are for my boy!

I have more Cyrus in my drafts, so be keep a lookout for when he graces my blog once more!

Crushing on the Reader

Cyrus

Cyrus first saw you when you were seated beside his brother in the theatre in Jrusar. You had a confident air about you that screamed the elegance and finery that he's so desperately attracted to and misses dearly from life before he started adventuring.

When Dorian finally introduced him to Bell's Hells, Cyrus greeted and nodded in respect to the others, apologising again and again for being an idiot and complicating things.

But the moment you offered him your name and held out your hand, he swiped it up and pressed an obnoxiously long kiss to the back of it.

He immediately regretted the gesture, face and ears tinged with a purple blush, mindful of Dorian's facepalm and his friends' sour looks, but you simply laughed and waved his worries away.

When the party came across him at the ball, he was standing at the edge of the dance floor on his tippy toes and trying to catch a glance of you in the crowd in your fancy attire. He never got the chance to chase after you and ask for a dance but whatcanyoudo there were baddies to fight, you were a bit preoccupied

You volunteered to leave Marquet with the two brothers and help reunite Dorian with the Crown Keepers - gods know how much the Wyvernwinds need someone to stop their bickering.

Cyrus spent the entire trip trying to impress and get to know the object of his newfound affections, pestering his brother for info about you - if you were single, what's your tragic but deep backstory, if you have a thing for royalty, if your favourite colour is blue etc etc.

He's stuck to your side like glue when you guys make contact with Dariax, Opal and Fy'ra Rai. They don't like him and think he's trouble (a theme he's getting used to), but you actually tolerate and make an effort to include him.

You impress the heir again and again with your skills and ease in stressful situations. You have the charm of a noble, nimble fingers to swipe important objects without being seen, you can open pretty much any lock by barely touching it, and can dodge an arrow as if it was nothing.

Oohs and ahhs and heart eyes galore, cheering you on at the sideline and scowling whenever someone calls him out on it.

Dorian continuously wants to curl up into a ball and have the ground swallow him whole bc his older brother is embarrassing himself in front of you and his other friends.

He's grateful that you can get through to his sibling though - Cyrus is not as an experienced traveler or warrior or mage as everyone else, so under your guidance hopefully he will get more accustomed to life on the road and the people you come across.

Dorian still gets grossed out when Cyrus clumsily flirts with you tho. Baby brother energy, y'know~

"Blah blah blah Laerryn's only record in history ever is from Ludinus blah blah blah how tragic blah blah blah history forgot her blah blah blah"

I'M SORRY EXCUSE ME YOU THINK LOQUATIUS SEELIE DID JUST ONE RECORDING TALKING ABOUT LAERRYN??? YOU THINK IT'S JUST THOSE LAST ONES IN HIS LAST 12H OF LIFE???

YOU'LL TRY AND CONVINCE ME HE DIDN'T LEAVE A TRAIL ACROSS EXANDRIA OF HIS LOVE FOR THIS WOMAN!?

YOU THINK NOT EVEN ONE EXANDRIAN HISTORIAN FOUND HIS YEARS OF REPORTING HE DID ACROSS THE PLANET AND YOU THINK NOT ONCE HE MENTIONED THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN IN THE WORLD HIS IMMEASURABLY BRILLIANT WIFE

LAERRYN WANTED TO BE REMEMBERED AND DAMN IF QUAY DIDN'T MAKE SURE OF THAT

#cr spoilers #loquaerryn #laerryn coramar seelie #loquatius seelie #I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THAT #We knew them for 24h and he spent it with his thoughts wrapped around her #and that was divorced and frustrated at each other and the circumstances #can you imagine that man at the high of his passion #he would've mentioned and praised and shown off this woman at every fucking opportunity #when someone as bright as Loquatius loves u. one cannot remain in shadow #i have so many feelings about this changeling #exu calamity

Never did I expect myself to be mourning the absence of english essays and writing exams and theatre class critiques. Do you understand how fucking amazing of a grade I could get on an analysis of trauma in Critical Role? On Lou Wilson and Emily Axford's finesse in portraying the heavy expectations and double standards placed on children? On Ylfa Snorgelsson's relationship to death? On the journey of a man's relationship to violence? On an analysis of grief in Dimension 20? On the pitfalls of youth? On the dynamic between humanity and religion? On the journey of self-discovery and acceptance? On love in all its forms? On the nature of choice? On everything Brennan Lee Mulligan has to say about capitalism? On the tragedy of im/mortality? On Gerard and Elody's divorce? On the unfeeling and aimless happenstance of the universe? On the role of fate and destiny? I'm not saying it would be easy. I'm saying can you imagine how fucking cool it would have been to turn in 5 pages about a dnd show, feeling good about it?

#not that i knew about cr and d20 back then. or that they even existed at that point. but give kids the chance to work from what they love. #rather than boxing them into one medium and then slicing it in half cuz of book bans and shit. #i can only imagine someone asking if they can write their essay about the tragedy of war using a crown of candy as their source material. #and getting turned down cuz the administrator looked it up and was blasted with the phenomenon that is getting 'slammed down big style' #a million tags here we come. in no particular order. most can be mixed and matched anyway. and im sure ill miss a couple #critical role #cr1 #cr2 #cr3 #exu calamity #dimension 20 #d20 #neverafter #fantasy high #fh #fantasy high sophmore year #fhsy #a crown of candy #acoc #the ravening war #trw #a starstruck odyssey #aso #a court of fey and flowers #acofaf #the unsleeping city #tuc #intrepid heroes #ih #cr cast

this is what my current theory about ashton’s primordial bullshit boils down to it’s incredibly self explanatory. no i haven’t watched calamity why do you ask

#cr #cr3 #cr spoilers #ashton greymoore #laerryn coramar seelie #exu calamity #roll insight #i feel so bad because the episode was SO GOOD for SO MANY OF THE HELLS but ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT IS BEING UNHINGED ABOUT THE ASHTON LORE #i read the bright queen to learn about the luxon like two days ago and then did a wiki dive #did y’all know that genasi are heavily prized by both the kryn and the cerberus assembly #which is fucking hilariously ironic to me. can you imagine being the kryn scout to find ashton fucking greymoore #anyways

[meadowsofmay]

there's an indescribable amount of pure joy i get watching liam in the crown keepers campaign — his reactions to all the familiar things, not familiar to orym but to liam himself. his happy smile at ashley when sherri was described, his content sigh when gilmore said he was married and overall just gentle look in his eyes during this whole segment, his quick smile when aabria mentioned syngorn and heart grab followed by an exaggerated fall under the table when they arrived to byroden is just precious to me. this man needs to be protected at all costs.

#may exu watch through #ep 4 #liam is truly a precious soul #i adore him so much #he loves this game so much he loves this world he loves his characters and he holds their stories close to heart at all times #and that's so #ah #i love him #alSO matt's happiness every time his players react to all these past npcs and places #imagine sitting in the place of a player and see your players your dear friends being absolutely in love with your world #protect protect protect #liam o'brien #orym of the air ashari #exandria unlimited #the crown keepers #critical role #let me also add vax to the tags #cuz all of these things are connected to vax directly #vax'ildan

I fucking told you there was going to be some cross-campaign simultaneous table shenanigans happening this campaign—

what a transition though. my god. so fucking excited for this, crown keepers my absolute beloved

#critical role #note watches c3 #critical role spoilers #critical role campaign 3 #critical role c3 #critical role liveblog #even if we get the Crown Keepers for multiple episodes I'm still tagging it c3 #I don't have a dedicated EXU tag #we're all screaming about the crown keepers but what happens when it's Luis and Lou at the table? #<- it wasn't but COULD YOU IMAGINE

happy late mother's day to opal and laudna for co-parenting one (1) nancy

The deep hilarity of Patia and Laerryn witnessing someone narrowly avoiding an assassination because of Loquatius (and Zerxus), and their first reactions being: "god we can't tell him, he's gonna be insufferable-"

#the way this party responds to murder and almost-murder is unreasonably funny to me #critical role #cr spoilers #exandria unlimited #exu calamity #exu calamity part 2 #exu spoilers #cr liveblogging #patia exu #laerryn exu #loquatius exu #presumably they meant loquatius but imagine if they were including zerxus in that too asldkfjehdd #shitpost

A therapy session that is preluded by a round of DnD, with the therapist as GM, and they make thorough observations about how you play the game and how you interact with situations, and draw implications based on those, and make assessments about your mental state.

#dnd #therapy #dnd memes #like imagine #therapist: so let's talk about how having a druid as your class of choice reflects you being a fucking hippie #or whatever they say #idk #never been to therapy #also never played dnd #but i watched exu calamity #and after that one i probably wouldn't mind seeing one #exu calamity

People are getting so silly about Matthew Mercer DMing for Dimension 20. From begging not to contradict fanlore (freaking fanlore) to attacking him personally over his vests and voice.

Just skip the season and quit being goofy.

#and by goofy I mean despicable #Matthew Mercer #dimension 20 #it's kinda like what happened when Aabria took over for ExU #fandoms gonna fandom and be pieces of shit #I saw someone complaining that Matt would make X character straight #straight #matthew 'my self insert is a bisexual woman' mercer making someone straight deliberately #imagine

Ok I know I’ve largely been like “there’s not going to be much in the way of remaining lore from this in later campaigns because everyone’s going to die and be forgotten in a war that kills a supermajority of the population and permanently scars most of the planet” BUT I did happen to look at the Ring of Mind Shielding and, well, wouldn’t it be funny if:

#what if Halas except Patia Por'co or Magister Hollow #critical role #critical role spoilers #exu calamity #imagine you pick up a cool ring that looks like a brain from the trove of marwa and there's just a wizard who won't shut up inside

<- literally started playing arknights because of exusiai

#there are lots of arknights women I love but when push comes to shove #It's hard to imagine any of them winning to Exu in my heart

I was searching for what type of sexual dimorphism Cerrit would present, being a Phillipine Eagle, and this is what the wiki says:

The level of sexual dimorphism in size is not certain, but the male is believed to be typically about 10% smaller than the female, and this is supported by the average length provided for males and females in one source.

This is reverse sexual dimorphism. Females are not only heavier but have a wider wingspan!!!

Wrayne is (very likely) bigger than Cerrit!

(And even if she's another type of eagle, this rule still applies. The difference can even be higher than 10%.)

#now now cerrit is 6'6 bro #imagine the majesty of wrayne #this also mean Maya will be the bigger sibling #cerrit agrupnin #wrayne agrupnin #exu calamity #birds #critical role #you guys think brennan would be proud of me? #this is so pointless but i love this about birds. especially with plumage #the boy is giving elton john glam rock and the chick is giving quiet luxury
