Transcript: Decomposition Cantrip – CR C2 Ep028 & Ep030

I noticed some interesting things about the spell Decomposition that Caduceus used in Ep030. It spawned a bit of fiction based on these transcripts. Episode 028 The Mighty Nein approach Caduceus’ graveyard for the first time. 0:43:05 Matt: “Frumpkin begins to return, and a passing of one of the clouds gives more sunlight that breaks … Continue reading Transcript: Decomposition Cantrip – CR C2 Ep028 & Ep030 →

Transcript: Statement regarding Chris Hardwick, Shield of Tomorrow Ep 49 4:40

G&S and Nerdist are who we are today because of the people, the men and women and the enbies, who enter this building each day, and work so that they can continue to make this a safe haven for a community of fans who come together to celebrate not just the things they love, but each other. And that's who the fuck we will continue to be. The fuck wasn't in there, but I'm angry. And lastly, we believe women, end of line."

Transcript: Taliesin and the Dolphins, Gather Your Party 2018-06-08

I will hopefully circle back to a full transcript of this as soon as I can, but I’m in a production crunch right now, so here’s the meat of this crazy story. This was so crazy that I no longer think Taliesin is an actual person, but a fiction getting written into our universe. Wednesday … Continue reading Transcript: Taliesin and the Dolphins, Gather Your Party 2018-06-08 →

Transcript: How Molly uses appearance to assess people, Talks Machina C2 Ep 6 0:20:50

Taliesin chose to play a tiefling because he “wanted a comfortable outsider.” (TM 2018-01-16 0:34:49) Tieflings are already visibly, inescapably marked by their infernal heritage. In Western society, tattoos and piercings (especially lots of them) have long been regarded as outside polite society. Molly’s body modification signals that he’s leaning into outsider status and a … Continue reading Transcript: How Molly uses appearance to assess people, Talks Machina C2 Ep 6 0:20:50 →

Transcript: Taliesin gives Molly’s pronouns, Talks Machina for C2 Ep 01 0:06:07

I’m profoundly over seeing this misquoted, so here is what Taliesin specifically said about Molly’s pronouns. He said “he” without hesitation, other pronouns, or qualification. He shrugs off Molly taking no offense at anything because he’s very chill. Just because he’s not offended by it in passing doesn’t mean another answer is right. The subtext … Continue reading Transcript: Taliesin gives Molly’s pronouns, Talks Machina for C2 Ep 01 0:06:07 →

Transcript: Molly’s notion of identity, Talks Machina for C2 Ep14

This is the Talks Machina episode for Critical Role C2 Ep014, Fleeting memories. Molly gave up a lot of his backstory in that episode, which I’ve transcribed in my post entitled “Transcript Critical Role C2 Ep014 0:13:00 Molly’s Backstory“. Taliesin elaborated on and reinforced that in the episode of Talks. Some highlights are: - Molly … Continue reading Transcript: Molly’s notion of identity, Talks Machina for C2 Ep14 →

Transcript Critical Role C2 Ep014 0:13:00 Molly’s Backstory

This transcript is largely scaffolding for multiple analysis. We learned an awful lot about Molly in this episode, both what he knows and doesn’t know. This post is one of a long series examining Molly’s story and character. There will be an index on my blog collecting all of them. If you like this transcript, … Continue reading Transcript Critical Role C2 Ep014 0:13:00 Molly’s Backstory →

Transcript Key Questions S1 Ep04: By the Hoary Hosts of Existentialism!

TW: Suicide It’s been a hard couple of years for me, between incapacitating disability, failing mental health, and the death of my grandmother. I’ve gotten more and more fascinated by death memento mori, and the macabre. The media that uplifted me the most became largely about death. I never had the right words for why … Continue reading Transcript Key Questions S1 Ep04: By the Hoary Hosts of Existentialism! →
