I'm Just Feeling Kinda Broken (ao3) - mlstyles257 ot4 N/R, 9k

Summary: “Is he okay?” Michael asks as he and Calum rush to where Ashton is cradling Luke on their dressing room sofa. Luke is definitely distraught, he’s hiding his face in Ashton’s tee, wailing and hiccuping on sobs. “I don’t know.” Ashton is trying to keep his voice calm, hushing and rocking Luke as the boy cries. “I didn’t even see him fall.” He presses a string of gentle kisses to Luke’s forehead, whispering reassurances as he goes. ... “Guys I don’t know what to do, he’s obviously in pain but I don’t think we can keep him up long enough to get checked out.”

aka Luke gets hurt during one of their shows and struggles with his little headspace.

I Want the World to Know (ao3) - SuperGirl13 michael/calum T, 5k

Summary: Looking back now, Michael knows that this has been a problem from the very start. He had had feelings for his best friend for as long as he could remember, and it was only a matter of time until the two got together. He and Calum were happy, teenagers in love, blissful. They didn't tell anyone, but they didn't want to, or need to. Their band was just getting leverage, and it seemed unnecessary at best. Sure their bandmates had an idea of what was going on, how could they not, they basically lived with them 24/7. It didn't matter though, Calum and Michael were happy keeping everything to themselves. Until they weren't.

It’s not hard to understand that Michael is quite depressed right now and wants to be alone, but the way he keeps isolating himself from the rest of the band really starts to worry Ashton. That’s how he came up with a plan, in order to get Michael out of this dark place the younger boy keeps going.

It’s probably the worst decision he never took, but at this point he’s ready to try and do anything in his power to make his friend feel better.

Help why is this so funny to me

“We shut the fuck up and take a short rest”

Imogen going off (very adhd of her, love it)

The look straight to camera

Ashton going “I was listening to you, I swear I was listening to you”

#critical role #cr spoilers #orym of the air ashari #ashton greymoore #imogen temult #the look straight to the camera #ashrym #imogen is so cute here I love her I protect her I never want anything bad to happen to her ever

[bread-wizards]

I find it interesting that out of all the party, Laudna and Orym are following in Ashton's footsteps a bit in hiding things from the party (Orym with the Nana Morri deal, Laudna with her interacting with/talking to Delilah more and more), and I wonder how much of it is the residual impact that Bor'dor's betrayal had on them.

#critical role #cr3 #orym #orym of the air ashari #ashton greymoore #ashton #laudna #text post #i often think about the episode after everyone was reunited and the vastly different tone between the groups #laudna was angry because she had given into delilah and killed bor'dor and the others had a somewhat nice break #orym was betrayed by someone he trusted with info on his husband but he turned out to be part of the group responsible for killing him #ashton's immediate response to it alludes me but i find it interesting how his first response was damage control #he didn't stop it but he was there to pick up the pieces as much he could #but like he has tried with orym someone needs to look out for the people who are looking out for the rest #which is why i think his taking of the shard was born out of a skewed form of protectiveness #we need the power and it could kill someone so ill do it to keep the damage to a minimum #the other group got romance out of it #fcg and frida #fearne and chentey with deanna #even imogen later with laudna once they got back #prism was a nice friend as was deni$e #but deni$e also reminded orym of dorian (as in of his existence since she knew of dariax) which rubbed salt in that wound a bit #i know it was funny but also ashton and laudna being a bit insecure about orym being prisms 'best friend' was interesting too #not that i blame either of the ladies for that it was just an unfortunate small thing that I feel contributed to a larger problem #because since they got back laudna has been talking with delilah more and relying on her powers #after imogen said she was disgusted by knowing delilah is watching them #orym went behind their back to make a deal signing away his life with nana morri #and talking more about how lonely he is and thinking about dorian a lot more #we have seen the result of ashton being that he nearly killed himself #but the split really fucked those 3 up

[astrangertomykin]

I truly honestly understand what the hell Ashton was thinking in that moment and cannot find myself to be mad at them. When you spend your life in pain already, there is no threat or fear of more. It's all the same, really. Especially when this way you could use it to help the people you love and, finally, make that pain worthwhile.

#ashton greymoore #critical role spoilers #critical role #bells hells #CHRONIC PAIN FEELERS HOW WE DOING #BECAUSE FUCK #it's being given the chance to weaponise that pain that has hurt you your whole life #to take it and to grasp it and to gain strength from it to protect those you love #to do some fucking good #to fall apart and be remade with gold threaded through your veins and your skin burning to the bone #to wield that fire to let it ground you so you can forge a brighter future #fuck hey ashton if ya wanna talk after your friends stop beating your ass I'm here bestie #i get you

[sparring-spirals]

I fucking LOVE the imagery and the symbolism of Imogen, being unable to catch people to save them, but able to force the harmful things away to minimize damage. Ashton and Orym, using their strength to leap into the air, do strong and weightless maneuvers to grab people and orient them to safety. Imogen unable to catch, unable to save, but able to help by forcing away the threats, using all of that capability and power to bend an unyielding dangerous thing and leave it warped, declawed, where it cant hurt the others anymore.... fucking phenomenal.

[cringefaecompilation]

cannot stand it when i see posts saying orym could/can only ever have concrete conversations about himself and his feelings with either dorian or ashton or that they're the only people that would understand what he's going through. asides from the Women Just Don't Get It-ness of it all, like:

i rest my case

#🍃 #critical role #critrole #fearne calloway #orym of the air ashari #they are BESTIES they are FRIENDS they are THE MOMENT #and even besides that i understand that fearne and orym have not gone through the same stuff but like... #are you telling me fearne does not or could not understand loneliness in the same way orym has #fearne. the girl who was left alone with only the hope of her parents being alive/caring through postcards in a time-dilated strange world #the girl who panics whenever anything changes that could take away her friends #the girl who fears being locked away because it reminds her of that loneliness more than being locked up #the girl who tries her damnedest to ensure that everyone she loves is safe and secure from any threat and shatters when she has to hurt the #the girl so desperate for someone to love her and not leave her that when her supervillain dad was ranting at her she was kind of grateful #you're saying she cannot understand orym's own feelings of inadequacy if he cannot protect innocents or his loneliness in a crowd? on god? #i do think that ashton is a good friend to orym and he can relate to him on other levels #and that dorian would also be understanding if he knew #BUT FEARNE IS RIGHT THERE

something something reckless dangerous decisions something something confronting mortality

#critical role #cr spoilers #ashton greymoore #laudna #laudmoore #my art #critter role #i drew this right after ep77 but the parallels i saw between them got more confirmed for me in 78 #i spent the ep trying to figure out why laudna was so upset (betrayed was such a strong word for something that had little to do with her) #(like yeah the shard was important but like it wasn't hers it wasn't imogen's it was his journey not theirs. i get being upset but THAT?) #''why didn't they learn my lesson'' was very telling to me and all but confirmed my theory that she saw herself in him #she made a choice to kill bor'dor in a way that risked waking up dalilah but did it anyway because she needed it; a sense of control #the same day she learned that dalilah had become extremely strong and could not die without /her/ dying she watches #ashton make a choice that they knew risked everything but did it anyway for a sense of control. and he dies. #he dies right after she realizes she may have to die to protect her loved ones but it will HURT #and it does hurt; fearne gets hurt they all get hurt #''why did they break her rock?'' #ANYWAY it's like i said in another post: 'they are a child' she says as she cuddles a toy and asks an older woman to hold her #also so sorry i'm shit at effects

[ursie]

Something something about how the fandom is both villainizing Ashton/Taliesin and infantizing Fearne/Ashley even though Fearne/Ashley are grown women who did in fact choose to not have the shard and thought it should go to Ashton and said so both in this ep and in 4 sided dive (which some of you would know if you actually watched it)

#I’m not saying she didn’t want to walk it back the second bad things started to happen but y’all are acting like Taliesin #held a gun to her head like 😭 #I’m not saying the criticism is bad but some of these posts are just in poor faith #from people who never liked Ashton in the first place #I don’t actually want to discourse I just think it’s weird how people #in wanting to prop up and protect Ashley simultaneously ignore the fact she can make her own choices #cr spoilers #critical role #I babble #tw misogyny #??

Before It's All Too Much. (ao3) - alxclightwood michael/luke, calum/ashton G, 3k

Summary: "Luke, what's wrong?" he heard, getting quieter as the room began to spin and darkness clouded his vision, his body finally allowing him to succumb to the relief of unconsciousness.

AKA Luke likes to be dramatic when he's ill.

floating then drowning (ao3) - lovelymuke michael/luke T, 9k

Summary: As Luke stands over the bathroom sink and swallows one of the pills, he knows that this is it. There's no turning back after this. As long as he can make the bottles of pills he has stashed in the bottom of his suitcase last until the end of the promo run he’ll be fine. So he doesn’t worry. Instead, he just knocks back the second pill and walks out of the bathroom to his waiting boyfriend. He’s going to prove that he’s still worthy of being in the band, that he can hold himself together.

If he needs medication to do that, no one needs to know.

If Walls Could Talk (ao3) - boomerluke luke/ashton, ashton/ofc M, 43k

Summary: The last thing Ashton ever wanted to do was hurt Luke, but he couldn't help it. The singer was just so beautiful, so ethereal and otherworldly that it took his breath away most of the time. Everyone felt that way about their best friend though, right? It was normal. No use getting unnecessary feelings involved, it was better this way. Luke understood.

Luke wasn't sure when this thing between him and Ashton started, or how it started, but it didn't matter. He was in too deep to go back now. So Luke would let Ashton use him, hurt his feelings and crawl back with apologies. Because at the end of the day, even when Luke had to watch Ashton leave the bar with a new pretty blonde each night, he knew the drummer would eventually end up back in his bed. And Luke told himself he was okay with that.

[towards-toramunda]

So I’ve seen lots of debate about this on here and I think this is v interesting. I could see it going kinda any way, and there have been good arguments all around. I’m not entirely sure who I see the shard going to so:

(Reblog to get more votes and widen the pool etc etc you know the deal)

#my top picks are: #fearne cause duh #Orym cause I think his self sacrificial and protection stuff would be interesting here by taking this power to protect others from it #Chetney because FLAMING WEREWOLF? #and Laudna because… idk I like the flaming undead tree vibe #I don’t want Ashton to get it because it seems dangerous and I don’t want them to die they’re my blorbo #BUT molten gold cracks on their body seems fucking cool lets be so honest with ourselves #critical role #cr spoilers #cr3 #ashton greymoore #orym of the air ashari #fearne calloway #chetney pock o'pea #laudna #imogen temult #fcg

[densitywell]

i do hope this whole thing compels Fearne to start speaking up more about her wants and needs. we can talk about how the Hells don't check up on her as often as they could or should, and I'd agree, but she also rarely advocates for herself or shares what's she's feeling. it makes sense given her lack of experience with everything mortal, but this proves she's not the only one getting hurt by it: what Ashton did was not at all her fault, but if she had told the witches or Orym her fears about taking the shard during their respective conversations, it almost certainly wouldn't have happened!

even in the best of circumstances, the people who care about you can't read your mind (or they can, but they're trying really hard not to in order to respect your privacy.), and the Hells are very very far from the best of circumstances. they're relying on Fearne just as much as she's relying on them, and so the need for better communication extends to her as well. hopefully she can start to put that into practice next time by kicking Ashton's ass.

#critical role #cr spoilers #cr #fearne calloway #bells hells #this whole thing is so crunchy i love it. truly such a good culmination of so many of both fearne and ashton's flaws and virtues #their wholehearted desire to protect their friends. their nonexistent relationships with consequences. ashton's secretiveness. #and fearne's not having even the most basic of understandings abt how to talk about her feelings. its so good #crposting #remember when fcg and imogen were talking about im giving in to ruidis and fearne snapped at them? that was so sexy need thst from her

[bookshopsbizarreblog]

Can we just talk about how perfect it was for Bells Hells to go to Zephrah before heading off to the excavation site? Right at the peak of inter-party tensions, with Ashton and Laudna understandably mixed on saving the Gods for their own merits, FCG pulling hard in the opposite direction, and Imogen dealing with the pull of Predathos' power, Orym took them back to where it all started. A place where squabbles for or against divinity don't matter, where the fight is entirely about keeping Ludinus from doing any more harm. It gave a reminder of what they had already lost. A childhood with a mother. A life with a husband. A world without all the fear and pain created by a single self-aggrandizing zealot. The war has yet to be won, and there are many twists and turns the road may yet take. But returning to Zephrah may have secured the first and most important battle.

#And did you all see Ashtons face while Keyleth was talking? #They've got to be feeling so incredibly vindicated #she was hurt to the brink of death and yet kept on fighting through the pain to protect and avenge and recover those she cared about #the gods didn't matter #it was for people #which is exactly what Ashton had been saying #critical role #cr spoilers #critical role campaign 3 spoilers #critical role spoilers #bells hells #ashton greymoore #cr ashton #keyleth #orym of the air ashari #cr orym #laudna #cr laudna #imogen temult #zephrah #cr fcg

[elementalladymallorie]

Ashton is about to go wild.

Lesson to be learned. Mess with Ashton's people in their line of sight?

You have the biggest target on your back, and the hammer is coming down.
