Even on a second listening I can’t help but to now feel bad for initial universe Rachelle if she was like this. She’s just so genuinely sweet and nice. She didn’t deserve it

I wonder if we ever get a "what if" series about Glenwood,like what if the seer didn't see Beth or what if Claire couldn't say the ranger or what if Genevieve couldn't control herself and attacked knight to drink their blood

It hurts so bad to hear what could have been. Rachelle getting to live her life has such a butterfly effect of her and Isaiah getting engaged, Doll on track to be a doctor, Ranger never getting their memory wiped and remaining friends with Isaiah and by extension Claire and Ranger likely had a completely different base for their relationship and Claire, Doll, and Rachelle all getting to meet each other on good terms…

2 in a day??? oh lala

Is it bad that I want to give her a hug Edit: wait ranger and claire are dating in this my heart can't take it

Wholesome, supportive, and sweet. I'm so happy that in at least one universe, Rachelle and Doll have this dynamic and friendship. ❤ (The Doll reference near the end legit made me re-inact the Pedro Pascal laughing/crying meme) It's so cool that Rachelle is defying the social norms that are associated with blood mages so she can pursue the career that she actually wants and doesn't feel any pressure to deviate from it. Live your dreams, honey! Her and Isaiah being a couple in this universe is actually incredibly cute. Her excitment sounded so genuine and wholesome. 😊 Hearing all of this, and realizing it could have been in the original timeline actually kinda breaks my heart. I'm so happy to be as invested in these characters and this world as I am. God, I love this series so much.

Yep I knew it, Isiah's "Best friend" is [Ranger]...

I love how them being actual friends is an alternate universe thing.

I will admit, ive kinda avoided Rachelle's story (its good, but not my cup of tea), but this is very wholesome and amazing

She can still be this wholesome in the main storyline. I have faith. It'll happen.

This got me in tears 😢😢😢😢😢 hope she be like this in main universe one some day

*kronk voice* ah yeah 😌 it's all coming together (even if it's au im taking some of these things to be lore drops and the red thread pinboard is getting drastically more intense)

I heard blood mange best friend and I got scared lol😭

Wait wait wait if Isaiah has a best friend (pronouns they/them, no name mentioned) who is dating a blood mage... Claire is a blood mage. RANGER is Isaiah's best friend. ISAIAH MENTIONED A BEST FRIEND HE WAS STARTING TO REMEMBER WHEN THIS LISTENER UNLOCKED ONE OF HIS MEMORY BARRIERS IN A CANON EPISODE. GUYS, ISAIAH IS BEST FRIENDS WITH RANGER

This is somewhat ironic to listen to since I haven't heard Rachelle's series yet. *post audio* This was an absolute delight, well done! Commentary below, as always: I think this is a character that sounds the most like you, tbh - not a bad thing at all, you have a lovely voice ^_^ (Minus your delightful gremlin factor lol) Hah, Rose said the same thing when we first met lol Feed the students, for they are poor! 😭 (Also that is absolutely something I would do - yes you get an upgrade, you deserve it!) I might just need to come back to this audio next time I need a pep talk lol BLOOD MAGIC MEDICAL PROGRAM WHAAAAAT?!! THAT’S SO COOL!! 👀 Turning your hobbies into an extra bit of fun, always a good time ^^ (Also “big girl job” - mood lol) No jealousy? This is absolutely an AU lol (Also a mood: going up against parents in regards to your college plans) Oh god I am getting flashbacks to my college days, ahhhhhhhhh! (Those exact words, minus the doctor part!) Magical archaeology sounds cool as fuck tbh. I would love to be a part of something like that. Air elementals are a bit air-headed, perhaps? (Yay, trust and responsibility!) I’mma guess Ronnie is from the canon universe (also yay for culinary and seeking passions!) Yay for stoner chef friends! They are the best combination! XD I know that squeal - that is an “Excited good news” squeal. lol DUDE THEY GOT ENGAGED IN THIS? THAT IS SO CUTE! (Also amazing proposal date, js) Ah, small town life? Ooop, got a double “Yeah, yeah, hang on, hang on” Okay, that is clever as fuck though lol I love that. It’s like gays in a small town - ya’ll will always find each other, no matter how small the population you may be. More “problematic af”. Don’t date patients lmao It’s a conflict of interest “I’m not judging, but I’m judging a little” friendship lmao As a course? Huh. I mean, could be useful for the small group, but surprised they would dedicate a whole course… though independent courses is a good idea too. Magical therapy is wonderful tbh lol But yeah, can see the need for a catchier name Nothing wrong with being happy in your life ^_^ (Also very good point for being in favor of the course) HAHAHAHAHAHAHA THE “DOLL” CALLOUT! (It’s fun if you’re doing a 1940s thing but otherwise… lmao) I learned some older women don’t like being called “ma’am” (as in “yes ma’am” when they tell you to be careful/have fun after returning your lost ring, and you’re young and gay panicking) - that count? lol

Wait, is the blood mage who Isaiah's best friend is dating Claire!!!??? Is Isaiah's best friend Ranger!!!??? Does this have any impact on the main universe!!!??? Omg, the possibilities!!!

Happy Rachell is breaking my heart 😭

Oh shoot 2 in 1

I tell myself deep down she has a soft spot for us (Blood mager/doll)

OH MY GOSH SO MANY THOUGHTS!! So first off it genuinely hurts my feeling that this Rachelle would have ben this kind and sweet and that her and Isiah would have been together its just MY HEARTTT 🥺. On the same note in this universe Ranger and Clare got together 👀. Also the fact that Rechelle cringed at Doll is so funny and cute and AHHHHHH. But on a more observatinal topic, I found the icon very interesting in the fact that unlike the OG universe where it seems that the hand on top is taking the blood mage symbol/power thing (im not quite sure) in this one they seem to be sharing it and it seems brighter and I think that is such a cool and well thought out refrence! Another thing, great job Castle on the transcript! I know its a small thing to do but as someone who enjoys reading it along with listening to the audio I think that its really cool that you took the time to write in all the cues and correct spelling errors! Its something ive never seen any other ASMArtist do and its one of the many reasons why youre my favorite! Thank you so much Castle for the wonderful audio (well audios 👀) and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Out of all the AUs presented this month, this is the one that hurt my feelings the most (/pos). Really feeling the "what could've been" vibes tonight in the Chili's /lh

So sad to see the clan living their dreams in this universe while in the OG their just mind slaves.

Very nice!!!!!!!!!!

Damn Rachael this could've been you

Comment for the algorithm. Ty

Omg, i just had a thought while listening to this, what if the blood mage that were listening to is from the past and in the future they get away from rechell and become powerful and save a certain wolf from a certain past algha, if you know what i mean, you know what i mean.

AAAAAAAaaaaaaaaahhhh she's still brilliant here but also happy and light and exactly who she wants to be T_T... i wanna punch the vampire that derailed her life.... also, is that a hint to ranger's backstory?

i don’t think i can like rachelle in any universe lmao. she gives me the creeps 😅

we’re eating good tonight girls

A best friend of Izaiah's dating someone who also happens to be a Blood Mage you say 👀...

You see, fellow listeners? We CAN fix her! Maybe.

“ nice” roacell? Sorry to vestige of cannon lore. Can’t buy it
