ella - she/her - an amalgamation of my interests which shift from time to time. mostly dnd + tv show posting at the moment but 4ever a widojest at heart. please yell at me about my writing (whatkindofnameisella on ao3).
Albin (Murph): Uh, Calliope, do you have a name?
Emily: Uh, I think Calliope looks through her criminal [laughs] stack of fake passports with fake names and fake identities, but she's like, you know what? This is a chance to try on a hat that I once really wanted to wear. And I think she thinks back to TGI Skydays when she saw Freddy proposing to Addie. [The others laugh.] And she thought of like, how nice it must be to not have to find your own purpose because you can just make someone else your purpose.
Albin: Oh, no.
Caldwell: Aw?
Emily: And she thinks back to Glenn.
Albin: (desperately) No.
Emily: And she said--
Callie (Emily): I would like to be… Glennifer--
Albin: [laughs] Oh no. No.
Callie: --Skydays.
[Caldwell laughs.]
Calder (Jake): I… I hate it and like it at the same time.
Albin: Okay so… I see…
Sol (Caldwell): I mean it's got a real ring to it.
Albin: Right… okay…
Callie: Glennifer.
Albin: Glennifer.
Sol: Glennifer Skydays.
Callie: Skydays.
Albin: Skydays. And you spell that… just…
Calder: But it's like in a strong, healthy, I don't need this anymore--
Albin: Like, okay, so it's a combination--
Callie: No no no. Absolutely not.
Calder: Oh, okay.
[Caldwell laughs.]
Albin: So it's a combination--
Callie: It's like when you took-- it's like when you took the potion of fire breathing to see like, if you'd like it.
Calder: Oh. Yeah. Right.
Albin: Isn't Jennifer your therapist's name?
Callie: [laughs] yes.
Albin: So you've--
Callie: I've combined it.
Albin: The source-- the source of your pain?
Callie: Look, I have an erotic impulse towards both of them! [Emily laughs.]
Albin: We're not gonna dig any deeper into that.
Sol: Right. No.
Calder: I did drink the fire breathing potion. I'm gonna stay out of your way.
Albin: Tha-- very good, Glennifer. Sol?
Caldwell: Um, Sol also thinks back to the TGI Skydays.
[Emily laughs.]
Albin: Why? Is there? We don't-- We don't have to.
Caldwell: Uh, Sol's in full panic mode [Murph: Okay.] And like, he hears the word Skydays, thinks back, and very confidently with a shaky grin goes
Sol: Potato… Skindersin?
Albin: Yes! [Emily laughs.] Very good.
Sol: Final answer.
Calder: That is on the menu.
Albin: Okay. Your name is… Potato.
Sol: Tater to my friends!
Albin: Tater to your friends.
Calder: Alright, Tate!
Callie: I'm only Glennifer.
Albin: Only Glennifer. Full name.
Callie: You can't-- if you collapse it, then you miss out half of myself.
Albin: Calder, please!
Sol: Bring us home.
Jake: Calder thinks deeply about TGI Skydays. [Caldwell and Emily laugh.]
Albin: Please. Calder. I beg of you. You're all gonna die. You're all going to die.
Calder: I remember… when I spoke with the waiter about not being served.
Albin: Okay?
Calder: I clocked that his name was Doug.
Albin: D-- okay. Well, that's a name! Yes, that's a normal name. Okay.
Calder: It is a name. Alright. Doug.
Albin: Doug?
Calder: Doug DaVirgin.
Albin: Doug-- [Caldwell and Emily laugh.] Okay. Like he's a virgin.
Calder: That's right.
Albin: Great. Okay.
Sol: That's-- that's a little character work in there too. I like that!
Calder: I just-- I project that onto Doug.
Callie: I'm the heiress to the Skydays fortune--
Albin: Jesus.
Callie: --and I'm married to Glen.
Albin: So you took his name by adding it to your first name?
Callie: As is the custom.
Albin: Okay.
Sol: And it's not really important to the mission but Tater does fuck a lot.
Albin: (so, so tired) Okay.
Sol: And it's fun because like, Doug's a virgin but Tater fucks a lot but we're still really good friends.
Calder: We are! Yeah.
Albin: Really good stuff everyone.
Calder: Doug's a wingman.
Sol: Yeah!
caleb really gave jester a storybook in zemnian so she'd have to ask him to read it to her. next to a warm fire perhaps. that is peak romance. he was romancing her. in a way that saw her and knew her.
and they didn't end up together? worst meta gaming decision of all time. it's been 3 years and i'm still upset
ive gotten so much mileage out of this tweet. every time i see something on the internet that makes me mad i just think to myself "people in real life: hey man how's it going" and i keep it pushing
[id: 8 gifs of beau & caleb throughout critical role.
1 - 2x49: beau: “don’t run. you can say you don’t believe in anything, and that’s fine. believe in us, just a little bit?” caleb: “…i will consider it heavily.”
2 - 2x22: beau & caleb in an agonizingly awkward hug, clumsily patting each other and looking to their friends for any kind of guidance.
3 - 2x97: beau & caleb motioning to yasha during her conversation with lord sharpe: beau forcefully miming the brutal acts of violence yasha should enact on him, and caleb trying to keep the situation in check but indicating that maybe he should be just a little bit stabbed.
4 - 2x68: caleb: “do you ever wonder what’s on the other side?” beau: “of what, the bridge?” caleb: “oh, that too.”
5 - 2x31: marisha, miming beau indignantly pulling books from the shelves: “i look at caleb across the library.” caleb sees her and gives her a proud double thumbs-up; she looks at him sourly before returning his gesture with a middle finger.
6 - 2x99: beau: “come here.” she pulls him into a slow hug. caleb: “what are we doing?” beau: “we’re hugging.” caleb: “what is the occasion?” beau: “i mean, i think we ended war amongst our people.”
7 - 2x109: beau: “i’m glad we’re friends. i know it was a rocky start.” caleb: “i don’t know what you’re talking about.” beau: “yeah, we were always great.” caleb: “we were always great.” beau: “yeah, it was all in good fun!” there’s a heavy pause. caleb: “you drove me insane.” beau: “i hated you.” caleb: “yeah.” beau: “yeah, you sucked.”
8 - 2x94: caleb: “follow your own advice. don’t go.”

Young Writer: Is it simply your last connection to that banished world - his world, if you will?
Mr. Moustafa: His world? No, I don't think so. You see, we shared a vocation, it wouldn't have been necessary. No, the hotel I keep for Agatha. We were happy here, for a little while.
Mr. Moustafa Cont'd: To be frank, I think his world had vanished long before he ever entered it. But I will say, he certainly sustained the illusion with a marvelous grace.
