[ID: A tweet from Laura Bailey @.LauraBaileyVO which reads: “You know how in the Sims, when you’re trying to build friendships, sometimes you get negative marks for conversation options you choose and then you start feeling really awkward and self conscious? It me. I’m the awkward sim.” /end ID]
[ID: A tweet from Laura Bailey @.LauraBaileyVO which reads: “Happy birthday to my witchy bitch, @.Marisha_Ray!!! You’re like music, bb.” There are four pictures attached. The first is of Laura and Marisha dressed for the first Halloween episode of Critical Role. They’re dressed as characters from Rat Queens, with Laura as Hannah Vizari and Marisha as Vi Blackforge. The second photo is of Ashley, Laura and Marisha clustered together for the photo at a con. They all have their arms around each other’s back, with Laura in the middle. The third photo is of Laura and Marisha on their way to the Ren Faire, with Marisha already in her bright turquoise wig. They’re covering their mouths in exaggerated surprise as they look wide-eyed at the camera. The final photo is of Marisha standing in a golden sunset, her arms upraised to the crest of Whitestone that had been written in the sky by a sky writer, out of frame. /end ID]
[ID: A photo of Laura, Marisha and Liam. Laura is preparing to pull a block from a jumbo-sized Jenga tower. Behind her, Marisha is squatting inelegantly with a look of feral madness on her face, and Liam is giving the tower the middle finger with an angry expression. Omar, Matt and Marisha’s red and white pembroke corgi, is in his lap. /end ID]
@.laurabaileyvo: This feels like a renaissance painting. “The torment of chenga”
Imogen not really knowing what’s happening as she casts Fly and her just doing it to save a friend without knowing what’s going on is so fucking cool
mechanically, all she did was cast Fly. It’s a 3rd level spell, she has access to 3rd level slots, that’s all she did. but the Aberrant Mind sorcerer gets an ability at 14th level that essentially allows them to fly at will (as long as they have enough sorcery points left).
so Laura flavoring Imogen’s casting of Fly this way effectively implies that Imogen really doesn’tknow what’s going on, because she’s tapping into a power she doesn’t yet know how to use out of desperation and panic because a friend is falling to his death. Laura used the expenditure of a 3rd-level spell to represent Imogen’s power extending beyond her current means, to represent that Imogen’s impulse to save her friend was powerful enough to reach into some unknown space to pull through abilities she won’t learn to control for months.
