#the spirit of sam riegel is silencing me

[alliekitaguchi]

i've got my dorym tinfoil hat on again

sam said some shit in this recent 4sd episode that has me a little sus

in terms of how the truth contest went in the feywild with nana morri, sam said: "orym had some good stuff that we haven't delved into yet really. but like... he was talking about his loneliness, and his... um... you, you said--"

the hard cut off and immediate switch to a different topic really made me pause.

the only other thing he could be talking about was the "i really miss dorian and sometimes i think that's okay, and sometimes i think it's not." because i don't think that anything else orym said during the game of truth was that shocking, especially not in relation to orym's loneliness or his feelings.

then, later, when talking about orym's deal with nana morri: "i feel like [orym] could use a love of his life at some point, but how is he going to do that if he's stuck in the fey realm?"

so here's me standing on my soap box:

liam and sam are best friends. they clearly talk about the campaign outside of the campaign. if ANYONE is going to know about what's going on inside orym's head (besides matt and liam), it's gonna be sam, who has probably talked about it WITH liam.

sam, famously, has spent every campaign trying to make sure liam gets some sort of happy ending, whether it was trying to save the wish spell for vax, or creating a character whose sole personality for about 50 episodes is dedicated to protecting liam's character, almost to a fault.

obviously sam can't and shouldn't spill liam's secrets on 4sd because 1) he's not liam and 2) they're making a show, and even though they (as the players) can know character secrets, the audience can't.

i think sam was going to say he was talking about his loneliness and his feelings about dorian and sam realized how that was going to sound, or that it may reveal something, and he cut the conversation off and switched topics to the ladies.

i also feel like sam was insinuating that orym could have love if he wanted it... almost like someone who may have feelings for him is right there, just out of reach, especially if orym potentially will end the campaign under nana morri's grasp.

i'll also point out that robbie daymond, on the very first episode of 4sd, famously said that dorian had feelings for someone in bells hells and when marisha asked if it was imogen, he happily moved off of the topic.

anyway. this could mean nothing. BUT IT COULD ALSO--

#[gunshot] #the spirit of sam riegel is silencing me #i really was watching the episode like that gif of the rock doing the eyebrow thing #robbie daymond i will get dorian and orym together if it is the last thing i ever do #dorym #sam riegel #liam o'brien #robbie daymond #critical role #bells hells #4sd #4 sided dive

Horror at The 90th Academy Awards – Updated Live

Considered the biggest night in Hollywood, tonight marks the 90th Academy Awards. Traditionally, horror and genre film are rarely recognized for their contributions. Notable exceptions include Silence of the Lambs which won 5 Oscars, including Best Picture, and The Exorcist which took home Best Adapted Screenplay & Best Sound Design after a whopping 10 nominations. This year’s announcement included a huge turnout for genre fans and genre filmmakers with 17 nominations between Guillermo Del Toro’s The Shape of Water and Jordan Peele’s Get Out.

Below are the horror/genre film nominees for the 90th Academy Awards. Winners will be updated as they are announced. Join us on Twitter as we laugh along and live tweet the awards @NOFSpodcast. And don’t forget to chill your champagne before the festivities begin. Based on how well Get Out and The Shape of Water have performed at both the Golden Globes and The Spirit Awards, I have a feeling there will be plenty to cheer this year!
