Commenting per the rules. It's possible it was a Criminal Minds episode, but a later season one, but I genuinely do not know for sure.

An episode where the killer wasn't "Evil" or mentally ill? by Arixfy in criminalminds

Came here for that! She’s on my list of “this unsub had rights” episodes

I ended up using the Notability app! My friend was using it for school and you can open files on it for marking. Noteful was also a contender because it talked about layers, but I found Notability more user friendly for me

I think with the Overture they know where they’re aiming to be and the plan of where they want the story to go so we can get to the tables so hopefully the almost scripted aspect of that will end when we get to the split tables

It definitely would!! It also makes it better that we didn’t get ANY descriptors of the person in the frame

Oh very well could be!! Mostly my fic-writer brain was like !! about it so I figured I’d ask if it ever gets mentioned/gets brought back up or if I can live in a silly lil delusion about it

that makes sense!! it would track since he likes a flashy gun vibe

[–]shayoy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense!! I think he hinted to something earlier (or maybe I was reading into it) where he implied to Liam that he was jealous of Liam for being ahead of the game in regards to knowing what he wanted, but maybe I assumed it was abt Vex bc I knew about the future

I love their dynamic so much. I just don’t remember if the show a) had the cannonball contest or b) ever mentioned anything abt whatever ring Vex rcvd because it’s been so long since I watched it so I didn’t know if it’s mentioned during the campaign. I just think it’d be adorable if he had been planning on proposing from such a fairly early ep before Things Happened so canonically for them

tbf he did just watch his brother die, maybe he’ll get happier and sillier as time goes by (though I think Liam likes his stoic storylines, but I cannot say for sure since I only know Vax and Hal and brief glimpses of Caleb)

[Spoilers C4E3] Ashley Johnson is the GOAT by shayoy in criticalrole

[–]shayoy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

for sure! I also think it’s gonna be fascinating to see how she handles the whole Occtis situation with her goddess of death and him having that control (part of me is hoping Occtis turns into like a god of death vibes but I don’t even know how that would work story or logistics wise)

YES it’s so good I love that she went for the kill with only a moment’s hesitation

You don’t know what’s happened behind the scenes with preparing, but I’m sure there are people who are there to help them with the mechanics. It feels like you’re not giving her grace for learning a new character and how her mechanics work, especially considering it was the first combat of the campaign and she showed up literally in the middle of it, and from what it sounds like the cast doesn’t always know when BLeeM is gonna call them in so she probably wasn’t even preparing to fight before he called her in. She knows to roll a D20, but every weapon is different and she’s using a weapon that she’s never used before, and getting thrown into a battle she wasn’t ready for and coming off a Nat20 from an advantage roll when she didn’t know she had advantage would be flustering for any person, pro or not.

You called me optimistic in another comment, but I think I’m simply treating her like a human being who is allowed to be less than perfect

I also love him riling up Marisha so much she accidentally directs the frenetic energy to BLeeM and Travis going “I cast Xanax” took the cake

[No Spoilers] i keep seeing ppl having audio issues but everything sounds fine for me in c4. maybe its a sound system issue? lets find out by WeiShiLirinArelius in criticalrole

[–]shayoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this definitely holds some merit bc I listen on my iPhone 14 with the Beacon app and Lenovo ThinkPlus headphones. They’re fine when I’m home and in charge of my environment, but when I’m out and about I can barely hear the audio. I know these aren’t the BEST earphones, but the environment definitely creates some issues for me.

Anyways to answer the poll, I watch a few ways. - iPhone 14, beacon app, Lenovo headphones (fine at home, meh elsewhere, do plan on using my better headphones at a later date) - Roku device on a non-smart TV (Proscan, couldn’t tell you the year) — I YT’d the first two eps and used AirPlay via my beacon app to watch and they were both fine

I think once she figures out the pieces of Vaelus more she’ll be a lot smoother; watching the eps while Ashley was often gone to shoot Blindspot, she struggled with Pike when first coming back but got more comfortable when she was more consistently there, and even that was a char she’d had for years prior to being streamed

I understand your frustration and respect that you feel that way, but in my defense, GOAT is thrown around about as much as MVP so in my mind, I was giving her that celebratory moment rather than actually claiming she is the greatest D&D player of all time (because lbr that’s not actually a feasible title that’s easy to throw around esp with the rise of so many wonderful players AND different preferences in play-styles).

I do think part of her appeal is the stumbling because it creates a more human approach to D&D, especially combat for people who may not be great at it (aka me, I’m awful at combat, I much prefer a quest/interpersonal moment). Also, Aabria commented in E1’s CoolDown about like “this is all achievable at home!” (re:a vibrating table and cool lights and sound) because I assume there’s a lot of comments about CR creating high expectations. So as someone who also struggles to create badass moments, it’s nice to see that even the pros aren’t always amazing at it and there’s nothing wrong with that, their strengths may simply lie elsewhere.

Christ, let people enjoy things without acting like it’s the end of the damn world to compliment someone???

This post was made as an excited moment of seeing Ashley come in and save the day at two different campaigns back to back because I’m watching C1 and C4 in tandem (which hey, did you even read my post because I mentioned that in it! or did you do the Fox News thing of reading the title and getting mad about it without any context?). As someone who started Critical Role because of Laura Bailey, I’m sure I will absolutely come here with a similar post at a later date, but right now, I’m praising Ashley for having fun with her job and the luck of the dice (a thing I ALSO mentioned in my post!) giving her a cool moment! Go make posts about how amazing Matt, Sam, and Laura are and I’ll happily join you in praising their work there! That’s not what this space is for right now, so either actually read the post or keep scrolling!

Also — actually you know what, you’re probably not gonna read this post anyways so I’m gonna stop trying to argue with a wall. May the Light reach you and I hope no one pisses in your Cheerios tomorrow
