👏👏👏👏👏

@@XCrawlFan Who said it was "slap" and "slap" but no "kiss"? There is a lot of affection between Liam and Marisha, even if Marisha does gets a little free with the hands (as seen earlier).

Not only Marisha. He is usually very touchy-feely with anyone close to him. There were episodes where he couldn't stop hugging Laura in C1. And don't get me started with him slapping Travis over Marisha's arms. I remember laughing at that comment back when I was watching it live because - well, pot meet kettle? :)

That was the joke

I really do love how physically affectionate the Critical Role cast are. Like Matt laying on Taliesin and for neither to have an issue with it in that one Talks Machina episode. I really hope I get to be on that level of closeness with someone one day.

Out of character, yeah. In character it seems more Marisha.

Yeah I mean she has punched him multiple times

@@ChBrahm Don't forget she squeezed his shoulder after it had surgery. On accident though, but oww.

If you watch the show you’ll see that Liam reaches out to her just as much as she does, if not a little more. A lot of the time when he’s laughing he’ll put his hand on her arm or back. When i first started watching the show I thought it was kinda weird but then realized that it was just a normal thing for them

Marishas are more dangerous while lisms are cuddly xD

Seriously if someone told me Liam and Laura were actually twins or siblings I’d belive them. They seem like they are all like childhood friends that grew up together for decades. And Tal was the elder god that watched over them.

@@NilCaelum if anything Talisin is their Grimm but he lost on purpose and they all have wholesome adventures instead of horrifying ones every week!

@bellringer Does this imply that the rest of them are all strange magical creatures? Because I could buy that.

I’m reminded of the fact that C1 started as a gift to Liam.... one that’s just kept on giving for years and years.

Absolutly, it helps, that they are voicactors and Matt does put a lot of effort into it, but those relationships are the real drug

"Accidentally." Lol.... Kidding!

Same!

This is a wonderful explanation for their friendships thank you for this

Also Liam and Sam are on the corner. They have wonderful bestfriend moments all the time

If anything, Travis is more the prompt for Marisha's moments of character growth.

Then we have, Matt + Travis + Liam = A separate wavelength that doesn't require words Matt + Taliesin + Marisha = Soulmates Matt + Laura = The fun loving big sister and the reserved little brother Matt + Marisha = I think they might like each other Matt + Sam = Jigsaw puzzle pieces that fit when they shouldn't Sam + Travis = "I'll fucking kill you." "Not before I kill you first." Then together, "Nah, I love you too much for that." Sam + Taliesin = The exasperated friend at the dinner table hiding in shame from the other one who is doing a gag with two cherry tomatoes in his nostril. Laura + Travis = I think they have a crush on each other. Liam + Laura = (I mean, come on. Do I need to say anything?) Matt + Ashley = I like sitting with you in silence. Travis + Taliesin = "Would you bless my newborn, o ancient one?" "Are you fucking kidding me? You're my successor." Liam + Taliesin = To each other, "Kids, am I right?" Sam + Ashley = Two popular kids in school who are close friends making them friendhip goals for other students. Ashley + Travis = I'm willing to bet that they are siblings and are just hiding the fact. Liam + Sam = I mean, both of their names have parts of that of the other. Need I say more. Matt + Travis + Liam + Marisha + Ashley + Taliesin + Laura + Sam = Thank you.

@@sh11death Liam + Taliesin = Theatre nerds

The juxtaposition of Beau and Caleb's relationship and Marisha and Liam's is so stark and I love it so much lmfao

I especially enjoy this because watching critical role back in early campaign 1. No spoilers but marisha and tal sat next to eachother and similar stuff occured. unfortunately in earlier days chat was more impacted by toxic behavior always reacting to anytime they even touched eachother so i really appreciate this presenting they are just very comfortable friends and that physical contact doesn't have to be sexual. not trying to gaslight any arguments just appreciating how far the interactions have showcased this heartwarming community and messages they bring. thanks to this wonderful community and your big friendly hearts

@@richardredmon9016 I admit I too was taken aback by it but after watching Between the Sheets and also learning more about Talisen as a person, including his hippie upbringing, him officiating Matt and Mrisha's wedding, and just how far back their friendships go, it all just makes sense. Life just has a way of... similarly to what Talisen said, Goth kids happen for a reason. CR is a special corner of the internet.

@@Jackie_Tikki_Tavi I didn't know he officiated their wedding? that's so adorable!!!

@@richardredmon9016 I absolut love the level of physical comfort they share with eachother. I am like tat with close friends, I wish I could do that with more people without it getting missunderstood and I absolutly hate that there are people who have to ruin it for others by making everything about sex and slutshame people for hugging . . .

Truly the friendest of friends!

Big sibling energy

Lean on Me When you're not strong I'll be your friend when your laughing far too hard

Most of the time Sam is the one that's jealous. Matt's so cool with it he doesn't bat an eyelid.

no dude that's a wild assumption! they obviously hug platonically frequently

We actually did a massive hug compilation project for Valentines Day if you want to see some more Critical cuteness :) Critter Valentine's Project: kzfaq.info/sun/PLOQMOzTI_0tSkpysrZjxJgSZeLZDMi6KG

Yup! Perfect energy

Yes there is and it’s called social anxiety and hating physical contact Edit: this is sarcasm

@@beepboop2816 You enjoy your social anxiety?

@@beepboop2816 how is that better?

@@beepboop2816 Social anxiety does not sound like a better thing Funny enough, I am both ends of that spectrum, I am extreamly touch avoidant with 99% of all people I meet, up to going catatonic and hysterical . . . . but also are extreamly cuddely with my close friends I would love to sleep in a blanked ford with all of them, every night, forever

To be fair, minus Matt, who she's married to, she's kind of everyone's little sister since she's the youngest in the cast. 🤣

Call the cops

Neni mujica I want a friendship that the entire cast shares.

@@canadiancanucklehead8310 honestly same, but their's is one of my favorites, second to Sam and Liam's

@@ireymm Sam and Liam's friendship is the best. Just from the shenanigans that occur and how Liam just rolls with what Sam does and vice versa.

😭😭😭

kek

Same. I am not okay lol

Welp. Now I am in pain

It’s an open relationship.

Well, they're already married to a single Laura Bailey

Will Fredel said so.

I think it's fair to say at this point, they're all married to each other.

Liam is in a joint custody relationship as both Marisha and Sam's pet introvert.

Well.. love is universal. :) Many people just seem to ignore that love ≠ sexuality.

You can't convince me they aren't. But seriously though I want this kinda friend group.

well, if you've seen their kickstarter promo, they all sleep in the same bed.

Normalize cuddling with friends.

@@ajc1080 Exactly, platonic intimacy is great

where is it from?

@@pazetic_ocean it's from one of the trial episodes in campaign 1

I'm glad you enjoy it :)

Hidden camera. They just decided to roll with it.

Thank you, honestly your gifs were super helpful in finding a lot of the cute moments :)

Yeah I used you gifs to fins a lot of hugs. Thank you

God you want to see zero hesitation trust fall? Have you ever seen the old Critical Role Just Dance video? If not, I recommend finding it and going to the section where Ashley, Laura, Marisha and Liam dance to the Tetris music.

Both sides. When I first started watching C1 I couldn't figure out if she was dating Sam or Taliesin. My son is the one who figured out it was actually Matt. I had to Google it too verify he was right. Lol
