pinkie nubbins and stitch monsters
Wednesday, March 6th, 2019 06:43 pmFirst watched late January 2018
Critical Role 1.08
watched 04 - 05 March
- Vax's melted foot, that was a fun time. Laura's pun on luck feat, I love it.
- "Are you congratulating us for being murderers?" I never understood the level of vitriol Keyleth got from fandom when I found out about it. This was one of the few occasions (notably the first) that she really frustrated me though. I'm pretty sure none of the cast could see where it was coming from either (Laura's face! Me too, man). The god problem didn't make sense considering they'd had a long time cleric in the party. The murderer comment doesn't make sense either, considering the king had Kima tortured and was actively attacking the party and it was pretty terrible for her to mention losing Grog as a source of her pain when one of the reason Kima was glad the king was dead was that his people had flat out murdered her own party. The whole thing seemed really misplaced and made Keyleth look pretty arrogant, especially from someone who was quick to trust a mindflayer. It doesn't look any better in hindsight than it did the first time around. It just doesn't sit well with me at all.
- That cavern of glass and bone was really cool, and creepy, and I hope I remember that trick of attaching a light spell to an arrow if I ever need it. Matt's face when Ashley said she wanted to run across! I have no memory of them fighting that stitch monster either, I'm so glad I'm rewatching. And it has teeth on the inside of it's throat, why would you do that Matthew. Laura's tiny face while she's has to have a turn when Trinket falls unconscious and then she has to roll a death save!
Critical Role 1.09
watched 05 - 06 March
- Well, I'm just gonna say it. Travis looks real good in those glasses.
- I love how they go from we have a plan to we're doing this right now to fuck it we've failed let's do whatever in two seconds flat? Scalan doing Banishment is still so much fun. Well, I suppose Scanlan doing anything is that...
- It's good that Keyleth apologises, I hadn't remembered that part, though I remembered what was discussed before it. I still really want to know what that whisper said.
- THE CUBE!!! [wheeze] And the twins fighting over the armour, that was so adorable. They did a contested roll without any input from Matt at all and that's just... it's so cute. And Marisha being adorable doing the animal motions always.
- Some hilarious unintentional call forwards here. Liam piggybacking Scanlan "like he's my son" and Laura saying they're pirates.
Seems like captions are finally up for episodes 2.47 - 2.49 so I guess I'll take a break from rewatching to get through those.
