watching the sdcc panel and i am just very :) about how sweet their answers to “what are some of the micro moments from the game that have stuck with you the most over the years?” are. taliesin saying what the fuck is up with that which was the first like The Party Gets To Know Each Other moments of c3. travis saying asking his wife if he could kiss her in campaign. marisha going way back to the cannonball competition in campaign one. ashley choosing the beauyasha date but also just the silly goat noise matt made. liam adding onto that to compliment matt roleplaying grass so well and then saying his favourite moment was writing a story for laura and reading it to her as caleb for jester. and then matt saying that was his answer, and that his favourite moments of the game are when they find ways to give gifts to each other whether tangible or not. and sam saying his favourite moments have less to do with the story and is more so when he can just. see his friends across the table from him. when marisha perches and when laura and ashley are (badly) drawing dicks and liam saying he loves when sam sneezes and ashley tells him to stop it and just. yeah. they Are an extremely popular online powerhouse, but i’m so happy that they’re also friends building a world together out of gifts to and love for one another.
like i Am so enamoured with the characters and the world of exandria but the moments when you can feel the love that those people have for each other reach out from behind the stained glass of their performances (to steal a metaphor from brennan lee mulligan) are so extremely special and i am endlessly grateful that they decided to share their silly little home game with the world.
Scanlan? I know you can’t hear, but I’m sitting in a tavern right now with Grog, he just went to sleep… erm… We had I had a pretty good day, I had to do a lot of labor, just like lifting stuff into a cart… and then… I… and then like, you know, Vox Machina, lo and behold, come along and I see them and now we’re here, but… I miss you… I’m gonna… I’m very tired… I’m… 🥱💤
there is nothing funnier to me than the critical role cast being invited on the WIRED channel, which has over ten million subscribers, and one of the questions being ��are sam riegel and liam o’brien dating?”
“Um. I don’t know what we’re going to do tomorrow, or not today, today. We got to find our- what I’m supposed to say is that we are going to find our friends and figure it out. But I’m having a hard time believing it.”-Orym of The Air Ashari
