Me about Matt potentially killing past PCs as part of C3: I really, really doubt it could happen without him having a serious conversation with the player(s) in question; the ongoing nature of the world and the love the players have for their past characters means this would seem really off
The cast of CR about Matt: I trust him to do what's best for story!
Me about Murph potentially killing past PCs as part of NADDPod campaign 3: literally never occurred to me, or rather, I assumed Hardwon would be dead and Beverly and Moonshine would be alive simply due to the passage of time, and once proven otherwise about Hardwon did not consider the possibility of killing the others
The cast of NADDPod about Murph: ooh that would be interesting to do, a real flip of expectations!
Murph about killing past PCs as part of NADDPod campaign 3: it would require too many flashbacks, hard pass

Thinking how in Naddpod, the boobs get messed with sometimes and I was always like "hm, Carrion gets it the best and is left alone because he's an outlier. The fact this timeline worked was Balnor, but he more often then not seemed to get the boobs killed.
But actually, I'm thinking of some monster the boobs are fighting or something. Carrion is caught off guard, and fails to fight back. And suddenly, the surroundings are changed. He's back in the city where the boobs first met him.
But they've got him pinned like the guards of the city. Moonshine is yelling at him, loud and angry, Bev won't look at him. That hurts.
But what really does it Hardwon. Hardwon rips into him, and tells him everything Carrion worries about, or has. "You're just a criminal! We trusted you, and youu betrayed us!" and Carrion cries, begs and pleads that he hasn't done any of that. Not to them. Not to his family. Moonshine says he never should've been allowed in the crick.
And Carrion breaks, just falls to his knees, covers his ears and cries. Screams in infernal for them to shut up. He's changed. He's changed, he's changed.
And then suddenly someone grabs his shoulder, and he's wrenched out of the fake scenario. Still, he reacts. Reacts badly and out of absolute fear casts hellish rebuke.
It's Hardwon, who cringes but shrugs the damage off. Looks into Carrion's yellow eyes, and even though he doesn't have pupils Hardwon can still see he's terrified.
The moment Carrion catches his breath he just shoots up. Scrambles to get Hardwon's hand off him and stumbles over his words shaking his head. He just runs. Doesn't listen to any of the boobs yelling for him.

While I am a bit of a permadeath proponent because I’m a menace and I like a shake-up, the the recent Original Laudna theory definitely has my interest.
I’ve been championing “Laudna comes back wrong” since Thursday’s episode and this is certainly an interesting way for it to happen.
Realistically, I have some qualms with it. I think for D&D as a medium specifically, it’s a bit of a weird thing for a player. To say “You get to come back, but you have no knowledge of the pst 30 sessions you played and the relationships you built in that time.” (And while I do think if this theory went through, she’d have a chance to regain those memories, it’s still just a bit odd.) I know Matt would discuss it with Marisha first to see if that’s a direction she’s interested in, but as opposed to a new PC starting fresh, Original Laudna is just a bit of a weird vibe for playing imo. That said, it does heavily resemble having a new PC and is rife for angst, which the cast loves, so I’m not ruling it out.
On a more general level of the vibes of the idea, I was immediately against it and then I thought about it for a minute and went… wait… yes. In general, amnesia as a trope is not my thing, but theoretically having Original Laudna not only lose all her post death memories but also regain a form akin to pre-death. They’d revive her to life, not unlife. Everything that makes Laudna Laudna would be erased- the spook the gore, the Delilah. And BOY is that juicy.
Honestly, that’s a big reason I’m also doubting it- while I’d love it, for them to put a stopper in the Delilah plot line and really, truly revert Laudna seems like something they might not go for because of how much essence of Laudna it would lose. But god is there something poetic about Laudna coming back wrong by coming back right.
I’d also be very down for reincarnation. I’ve only ever seen reincarnation with an entirely new body in naddpod and it’s just such a fun spell to me. Again, maybe not likely because CR is very tied to their character designs and aesthetics. But so cool!
Anyway Laudna come back wrong somehow please I am begging

37, 41 and 48 for the fic asks?
So this is a deep cut fic from a couple years back: Fanged Blessings. Naddpod has a much smaller fan community than Critrole, but I still really like this fic because it's about a young witch's apprentice who lives in a series of abandoned train cars with her mentor. I loved the Eldermourne campaign. It was so lush and spooky, and there was some really cool world building surrounding who was considered a monster, what was considered a curse, that I wanted to play around with. Naddpod got me into fic writng and I still like those stories.
There are a lot of fics that I'll read and thing ohmigosh I wish I could write like that. So I'm going to give you two. I'll Come Running by @picturesofthegoneworldis so good that I made a fan comic of it. All her work is filled with a deep understanding of character, which she turns into insightful study while writing the hottest smut imaginable. Her work made me want to write smut, which was very difficult, and it just made me admire her more. And A Courtyard of Stars by @unicyclehippo is a fic I return to again and again because the sense of place they wrote into it is so strong and beautiful and it makes me crazy because I feel like I'm there and smelling the food carts. It makes me want to write better settings, and I know a couple passages in Flowers came directly from thinking "Ollie would slow down and tell the reader where we are. Do that."
Last fic I read was High Speed Connection by HoodieHeda and Yes! I do recommend it! It's so sweet and fluffy and fun! I don't typically read AU's because playing around with magic is half the fun for me, but HoodieHeda does such a great job of translating the characters that the AU itself is a magic trick. And it's been nice to read something light and fluffy because a lot of SouthernGothic fics lately have been very angst heavy. Nothing wrong with that, btw. I just tend to seek out light when everything feels dark.
