Vex And Vax - Tumblr Posts
Soooo I just ened watching 1st season of tlovm. And I love it. I need second season. Please! And this was one of the very few shows I watched with my family. And they watched it because of me!!! Yay, finally we have something to talk about.
I have some thoughts about the show but they contain some spoilers so if you don't want any then don't read. (btw, It was hard not to tell anything to my family about what was going to happen. They hate me because of that.) thoughts below the cut.
And sorry about my english. It can be bad. It's not my first language.
-First scene I was like "and there a great evil came... oh come on, it always starts like this".... but when I saw the fellowshop of the ring getting killed like this and changed my mind. (Please, don't tell me I'm the only one who noticed the similarities.)
-The Tavern brawl scene was just... *chef's kiss*. Especially Vax teasing Agar. -And Percy drinking wine when the rest is playing drinking? And soon after that just taking his gun and pointing it at someone who just attacked him with... whatever it was, a knife? Some weird sword? And smiling? I already knew I loved this guy. But I didn't expect him to be so fucked up later.
-I knew there would be some dragon there. It was quite obvious. And I thought something like this "what if this dragon can change into human?". Then, BAM!! It changed.
-There was Grog, big dummy. But big dummy that can switch between raging goliath and sweet big boi. I know I don't want to mess up with him. Sometimes he doesn't think, like when he entered Anders' house and went right into a trap. But man... when he is raging he's great.
-And his relationship with Pike. It's just awww. Also, Pike is super. Even when he doubted herself, I mean, when she thought she lost her connection to everlight, she was great, but it was also so sad. I love how she want's to help people. And her astral form in the last episodes? it was... WHOA! I loved it. And her healing everyone. Or at least trying. because when she tried to heal that boy, or Kayleth, and wasn't able to do so... it got me. She's too kind.
-Vex and Vax are awesome. -I want to have same bond with my siblings as they have. Even drunk they somehow know what the other one is going to do. -And how they are like "we can run away from you guys... but we won't", because actually they really like their companions. -I already know Vax is bi, and I love his relationships both with Gilmore and Keyleth. -I need more Vax x Gilmore context. -And how he picked that lock and said "Amateurs". I want him as brother too. Please. -On the other hand, Vex seemed to be more... or maybe less, chaotic? I don't know how to name that. -She cares about her brother, Percy and the others. And her reaction at Keyleth getting hurt? It was so sad. -She knows what to do, and is great fighter. The only thing I don't understand is how she gets those headaches when there is a dragon nearby. -Daddy issiues. Great. Family drama. Well, not exactly.
-Kayleth is so sweet. And strong, she just needs more faith in herself. Her powers are wonderfull. That light she created at the end to defeat Sylas? Or made portal back home. And she has some family issues again? That she may not be able to go back home? -Kayleth creating de Rolos crest at the sky. It was amazing!!!!!!
-Scanlan... I like this guy, but at the same time I want to keep some distance from him. I mean, he would fuck everything... everyone? (Is he Pan or something?) - I like, sometimes, his songs. - Casting spells with music? I would definietly do that if I was him, and he is doing this. And how he can use him being annoying for his advance. Also he's the funniest person there. For me at least. And, is there a thing between him and Pike? Please, tell me there is. -Sometimes he reminds me about my friend, loves singing, is short and loves to... ya know.
-Last one is Percy. I love ths guy. I don't know too much about the others pasts, but I think his is the saddest one. Damn, he lost everything. He was tortured. -And then made this weird pact with demon? I don't blame him. And his sister betrayed him, and he lost his will to do anything. -Vex, take care of this man because he wi'll get killed without you. She's his voice of reason sometimes. -No Mercy Percy is hot. But this man Is fucked up. Totally. But when he fight's to not kill Cassandra, he deeply cares about her. And when the demon later takes control over him, but he finally resists. And his reaction when he hears about Briarwoods at the party. He's sad anime boi. -But, was he going to kill himself when his vangeance was done? I guess so.
-Percy and Archie friendship. When he risked everything to get his friend out of jail. -And Archie telling Percy he is not the last de Rolo- I was like- Wtf? So sad Archie later was killed. -Somehow it's hard for me to imagine Percy making pranks. Though when he talked about this I immediately thought about Fred and George Wesley. And Percy looked alive for a while. Without all this bad memories and vengeance.
-And Trinket. I mean the bear. Vex is totally his mommy. And he is her little boi. And that little moment in 2nd episode with the guards, it was soooo cute. I want more of this bear.
-"Darling, take the mask off"- made my day.
-Same about "You fool, now your soul is forfeit"
-The moment when the party changed their minds after seing destroyed village, and not being able to help the dying boy... it was so sad.
-Percy's smile is sooo cute.
-"and ther I thought you were practising your resting bitch face." "Excuse me. My bitch face?" (bla bla bla) "And for the record, I have magnificent bitch face." "You do, now?" "Yes I do. Lots of practice" I love this.
-He's the smart guy, but sometimes his an idiot.
-"DId you just Hiah me?!"- don't tell me guys you didn't laugh.
-Why did they let Vax go to Briarwoods room alone?!
-Grog saying Percy is a bit too small to be a leader.- How does the height counts?! -Just agree that Vex is the leader and Percy is second in command.
-Percy's reaction when Scanlan destroyed his pepperbox was hillarious. I had to play it again.
-So, in the second season we are having dragons again?
-Please, tell me Allura is going to survive this attack cause I love her.
-Who the fuck is Whispered one?!????!!!??
-Were the guards playing DnD in ep 7?
-Vox Machina is just one, quite big, family. Change my mind. With Vex as a Mom. -They care about each other. -And they are worried when something happens to one of them. -They all deserve this. After what they've been through.
-I started watching campaign 1 because of this show. Unfortunately I don't have much time for it. :(
Honest Trailers
I have only one thing to say: I love this video.
The part about the doors is the best. and one thing, why he says everyone has horrible past?
And Matt... :D
He is the best voice goy. (watch till the end to know what I mean)
Btw I just noticed that when Percy finally introduced himself to the resistance, under the Sun Tree, he made a mistake saying his own name. He said : I am Lord Percival Fredrickstein von Musel Kolovski de Rolo the Third He said KOLOVSKI or something like that.
When his name is:
Lord Percival Fredrickstein von Musel Klossovski de Rolo the Third.
Am I the only one who noticed this?
Do you think Taliesin gave him these names so it would be fun to make a mistake every time he introduces himself?
Vax: I love you stubby, I’m always gonna be there for you. You can always be a pain in the ass like you are. I love you, always have, always will. Thank you.
Vex: I love you too.
just watched episode 40 of campaign one and my god...that was some emotional damage...
Four fucking dragons destroy the city, we don’t know who even survived, the party barely makes it into their keep...then they just turn against each other for that fucking skull thing! Grog getting a natural one while trying to destroy the skull but fails because he sees Pike disappointed in him...
And it only gets worse when Allura arrives and practically drops the bomb on them and how both of their party are responsible for it and then keyleth freaking fire family is dead?!?
Don’t even let me get started on the twins they had so many good moments in this ep like:
“Do not go far from me, if you’re out of earshot you’re too far from me.”
“Do you think this is what mother saw before she died?”
/
“you’re stronger than me, I need you.”
/
vex taking her brother’s hand when he talked about killing krieg.
/
“I want to kill a dragon or die trying.”
“We will.”
LIKE UGH???? I’LL NEVER RECOVER FUCKME!
“thank you for that, you always have my back and I know that.”
— vex to vax
vex’ahlia and vax’ildan’s conversation in the episode 48
Vax: You want to talk?
Vex: Yes, I do. Don’t walk away from me please. I have a feeling it’s because of this Raven Queen situation...I don’t know. I know that you offered yourself to her to save me, and I can’t put into words how much that means to me, and I’m worried that she took you up on the offer. And I know you’re worried about it too. And I’m afraid that’s why you’re avoiding Pike. You’re afraid she’s going to see something in you. But I wanted to tell you, I’ve been looking into this book, it’s the best 35 gold I’ve spent, maybe 30, I don’t even remember anymore...
Vax: it was 30.
Vex: It’d been worth 35 for all the things I’ve found in it! It got all these information about the Raven Queen and I’ve been looking at it all the time!
[...]
Vax: She’s already speaking to me.
Vex: Oh...and?
Vax: I don’t know Vex’ahlia. I don’t know what this means, I know that she’s not a force for evil, neither are funeral homes. I don’t want to bed down in one.
Vex: Well, that’s understandable.
Vax: But it doesn’t matter, and I’d do it again, because I did it for you. And I’m trying to come to terms, not knowing the terms.
Vex: Well. We’ve lived half our life in the shadows, you’ve made them your home. Am I right?
Vax: Maybe so.
Vex: I mean, this is a time you can either let those shadows swallow you down and keep falling into a hole, or you can use them to your advantage. You can become a champion. It’s pretty fucking badass, if you ask me.
[...]
Vex: What I’m saying is, brother, I’m proud of you. I’m happy for you. And I’m so, so thankful to you. So don’t be frightened! This is a wonderful thing. Not many fucking people can say they’re a champion of a fucking god!
Vax: Listen, I’ll take into consideration what you said. Again, none of us, you and I, don’t know what this means, I’m waiting to see.
Vex: Alright, but as someone who’s seen the other side and has comeback thanks to you, there’s no use living your life in fear. I love my reckless brother, as much as he hurts my heart. I love you for that, and don’t be afraid to be that.
[a tender smile from vax]
Vax: I have no clever answer to give to you.
[a big one in return from vex]
Vex: That’s wonderful. I love you.
[she walks away]
Episode 56 gave me whiplash because how did we go from celebrating the dragon’s defeat, gossiping about Vax and Keyleth relationship, having a cannonball party contest and all around fun time to Scanlan promising he’ll not die to his daughter, Vex having to break the news to Amelia about her father’s death, Vax having a breakdown while talking with Pike about the Raven Queen and so on 😭
Before the break: After the break:
Vax saying that Vex doesn’t need a title to be awesome: best brother 🥹😭🫶❤️🩹
Vex breaking the crystal and Vax killing Thordak…POETIC JUSTICE!!
the twins being the only ones to forgive scanlan immediately when they see him because they don’t deal well with abandonment
“Where’s Vax?”
«that’s where we are gonna end the episode»
FUCK YOU MATTHEW MERCER
«what does she mean to you?»
Keyleth: I told you that I was faithless, which might be true when it comes to the gods, but not with Vex'ahlia, not with Vox Machina. She gives me my power.
Scanlan: Her name is Vex, and she is greedy and mean sometimes, and she can steal a lot. She's not the greatest person, but her flaws highlight everything right about her. She does all these things to protect her family and friends, she would give her life for any of us and for anyone that was truly in need. And she’s not perfect, but she’s the most perfect of all of us.
Grog: She believes in me. She tries to teach me to use my brain, which I don't do very often. She tries to teach me to learn from the world. And she always cheers me on, which not a lot of people do. I believe in her.
Pike: I don't have a real sister, but I consider her more of my sister than I've ever had. She's family, and if you take her from me, there will be hell to pay.
Percy: She is Mistress of the Grey Hunt of Whitestone, Baroness of the First House of Whitestone. She’s my heart and my judgment and the future that I’ve chosen. She’s the one that I have betrothed to.
Vax’ildan: She’s every hope I have. When I’m gone she will make the world right. She has the intelligence and the saviness and the heart to make real-world decisions. She is me, but better. She is your champion.
«then, there is hope.»
"every stitch on my body is yours when i'm gone."
"i don't want every stitch. none of it's worth you leaving."
every day that goes by we’re getting closer to “do not go far from me” animated
Wolfe and Leona acting just like Vax’ildan and Vex’ahlia…MY HEART
I hope that in season two of tlovm they don’t fly over just how depressed vax’ildan was at the beginning of vox machina’s journey. He was so down and his only purpose was revenge against the dragons. But not in a percy’s-anger-towards-the-briarwoods kind of way; but in a I-feel-this-hollowness-inside-me and I need to fill it with something, anything, kind of way.
He gets rejected by keyleth, argues with grog and he still doesn’t have the best relationship with percy. He doesn’t feel as connected with vox machina as his sister does. He asks her what they’re even doing with them. The times he talks to scanlan are the times in which he wonders how he goes about his day being so happy with the numerous shitty circumstances they find themselves into.
Then his sister dies, and he can’t accept that. So he offers his life, because of course he does. However, he finds himself changed by the raven queen, and in the beginning he’s just so scared and confused by her and himself. Life didn’t go at all how he planned.
But slowly, very slowly, he makes progress.
And when he’s finally happy, it’s just so rewarding.
(Which makes his “death” even more sad…)
Do not go far from me…
just thinking about when laura bailey gave liam o’brien a ring engraved with raven feathers and the words ‘do not go far from me’. i’m just thinking about it!
