Do You Think The Mighty Nein Will Forbid Any New Members Because Theyre Too Far Into The Nine Schtick

Do you think the Mighty Nein will forbid any new members because they’re too far into the nine schtick and can’t back down now.

Like it’s mostly clear that the nine nein are now Beau, Yasha, Jester, Veth, Fjord, Caleb, Caduceus, Essek, and Molly. Fan artists can finally draw three squares of three and have it look cool. But what happens if they pick up a new member?

Bam. Now there’s ten. How will they justify the name they meta gamed up on a whim that has become a centralized motif of the campaign now?

I just think it would be funny if shenanigans ensued.

I’m always here for time-travel Molly/Caleb fan fiction but I just pictured the well adjusted post campaign Caleb experimenting on new time spells with Essek and accidentally traveling back in time and saving Molly and for some reason it’s hilarious to me

Like…

1) Caleb surrounded by all the disasters of early campaign Mighty Nein and their all like….Caleb are you okay? You seem okay I’m worried

2) Caleb/Molly/Essek where Caleb misses his husband, Essek, and his love, Molly, and his crush, Kingsley

3) Caleb meeting Essek again and going…Well this is awkward my traitor to the dynasty husband without all his character development

4) Just like…all of it there’s so much comedy potential. Imagine well adjusted Caleb having a conversation about mental health with any of them

5) Caleb just absolutely destroying Trent Ickithon

And like yeah there would be some angst cause he misses the future and has to do it all again but I just think it would be a Really Fun Fanfic

Something something about my Shepard who was raised on earth surrounded by death, who joined the military, who died only to be resurrected to die again. Something about falling in love with an assassin who was terminally ill who didn’t die from his illness but from a sword through the chest. Something about being an orphan, being in grief, being surrounded by war, and accidentally falling in love with a specialist who hasn’t given up yet, who wants to build a future. Something about being surrounded by death every minute and every day, being a murderer and being a soldier and being a survivor. And choosing life.

Okay folks repeat after me: it’s okay to critic the things we love.

People criticizing critical role’s lack of diversity, especially in light of their campaign setting, have a valid point. You can acknowledge that and still enjoy campaign three.

I like to imagine the reason Joker looks so stressed whenever you flash forward to an interview is that they took away his glasses and he’s just trying really hard to see
