Me IRL

where and when did this happen? this is a genuine question

@@Cris.as.in_Crisis It was in estlecross toward the end of the campaign. I don’t remembered the exact episode number.

@@Cris.as.in_Crisis Found it - episode 114, start at timestamp 59:40

@Ryan Reffert In the beginning of C2 when Nott tried to steal from Fjord and Mollyauk tricked her into trading a piece of paper

My brother once SIGNED a blank piece of paper. It was for my sister's b-day and it ended with him in a dress.

​@@gabegrether8647 Brilliant 😂

@@gabegrether8647 And that, is why you never sign a blank piece of paper without writing anything to prevent stuff from being written around it. Even if it's a simple "nothing on this is legally binding" or whatever. Although I'm assuming the whole reason for signing the piece of paper for your brother was so something could be written around it.

What happened?

@@undertaker1997fan Laura Bailey happened, that's what :D

@@TakeWalker that doesn't say much now does it

@@fatimahalhafeed9153 saying more will spoil it, and it sure is something you wouldn't want to have spoiled

THAT WAS SUCH AN E P I C MOMENT

Literally everything he's done has come back to bite him in the ass.

I don't know, announcing Vex'ahlia as Lady Vex'ahlia - Baroness of the Third House of Whitestone and Grand Mistress of the Grey Hunt to spite her father and help validate her as a noble is still probably one of my favorite all-time moments in the history of Vox Machina... it just hits so hard every time we revisit it, and precludes so much of their intimacy later on in such a meaningful and respectful way that just jives with me. She earned that title and her legitimacy was supported by someone who had nothing to gain from doing so, other than to stand up for someone they care about. Truly lovely and a jarring juxtaposition to the cold, calculating and vengeful warrior Percy usually presents as - a rare moment of warmth that embetters him for feeling it!

@@WTFisTingispingis everything that doesn't have to do with Vex

@@Beacuzz truw

I dunno, “Help, it’s again!“ is up there

We don’t deserve him.

that's what happens when you're immortal, you get consumed with all the language you've picked up and can't make a choice, so you just...don't

@@stormrider7235 And odds are, in some bizarre alternate universe, "Help, it's again" is heralded as some sort of poetic mastery of that plane's native tongue.

You sit on a horse. These things happen.

Which One Shot is that. I want the context XD

@@FarhadHakimov He plays Carver on LA By Night!

Oh, that was such a perfect exchange and bless Matt for having that mini ready

Has the same energy as that scene in the spongebob movie "Uh I'm supposed to get a toy with this?" *toy hits him in the face* "Thanks."

Which episode is this?

@@Molly-or9kt Campaign one, episode 35 pt. 1 I believe

I think he says 'I love you' but semantics

😂

When was this??? I HAVE to watch that

@@wasgattalex4476 you're beautiful, thank you

What I love about that particular joke is that it shows how comfortable the CR cast are with making those sort of jokes with each other and know it's all in jest.

everyone always misses Travis saying 'oh so that's what happened' before Taliesin apologizes. he had a cue, he didn't just go straight to 'i made your child'

AND cracking up at the exact same moment afterwards

Pure serendipity

He was so zooted lmao

After 8 months finaly, the 666

In which episode of campaign one was that said ?

@@Usakachi C1E33: Reunions (1:06:55) Pro tip: Use Kryogenix CR transcript search tool

He's great at those I love the full line for 5:39, which amounts to "the best gift I can give you is to point out that you're a fool, your world view is backwards, and no one in the world cares about you, and I pity you."

It's definitely very Taliesin to be both eloquent and cutting in all characters not just percy. Even Cad, a soft spoken man of the earth type, who wouldn't have had the education and eloquence that Percy has, and Molly, a lesser educated and amnesiatic travele still had the ability to cut to the heart of the matter and put things into words that almost defies definition

Anybody else come across this comment as the clip came up?

Give me the link Right Now Please Your Honour

@@cybersearcher1041 yes I want to be notified when this happens

@@hotcrossbuns6585 me too

Found it! Episode 24, about 2 hours 17 minutes in

@@hotcrossbuns6585 thank you so much!

Which can be coupled with every single time Tal mouths the words "Help me!" during one of Sam's bits.

It's second to "I cast.... Godammit..."

Definitely one of my favorite ever Caduceus moments!

Me and buddy use it in every game we play whenever something bad happens from Battlefield to Sea of thieves lol

When was that?

Man, i thought exactly the same

Think about it, you have a certifiable genius whose life long dream is to visit the feywild, fulfills it, but can't remember it, and the least trustworthy member of the party offers to make him remember.... Of course Tal is going to be excited, the amount of potential fuckery his character is going to have to endure based on these new, albeit temporary memories.

What i found most endearing is how invested Laura is in this

Talisen is an Agent of Chaos

@@scarlightemperor3410 Exactly! And an agent of chaos loves and encourages chaos in all it's many forms, especially if it's aimed at said agent!

"A concussed fortune cookie" that just destroyed me XD

Especially if you don't think you have the time, audience, or on-hand evidence, to try and go into an in depth explanation of your point. So you're trying to touch on the cogent points where glossing over the deeper stuff. Apologies for the 2 year old necro, but "concussed fortune cookie" is probably the best description of how I probably sounded in a conversation I had recently with someone at work, and I will be stealing that for the future. =P

Because each character has been a little piece of Taliesin's soul. Percy represented the pain and darkness in his life, Molly his actual fun loving typically jovial personality, Cad reflected his sense of familial bonds, love and compassion and Ashton is just teen aged pissed off Taliesin telling everyone to fuck off :D

Yet I love that with Trent he couldn't shake No Mercy Percy with that savage verbal dress down, "I hope you will find someone who will mourn you when you are gone", maybe out No Mercy-ed him

I feel like every one of Taliesin’s characters would have found some way to get to Trent and all of them would have been amazing. I kinda want to see Percy and Trent’s version of ‘polite’ dinner now. That would be hilarious

especially when you compare Cad to ashton

​@@nuru666yeah, but in comparison to that , Liam for example Always plays a sad potato, He does it wonderfully but that does Not Change He kinda Sticks to the Same typ

hes a being of chaos

Give him a big Red Button and He will Push IT!

Little seed of joy and chaos

Matthew Mercer is amazing and I'm sure what he had planned for that character and the events surrounding it would have been equally as awesome as anything he's ever come up with. But man. What Laura did ... I firmly believe that whatever Matt had in store could not have been as impactful or stupendous as what happened in the game. That was the best scene I have ever seen develop in any game I've watched or been a part of. Failing some twist of fate where one of these brilliant nerdy-ass voice actors do better, it will be the defining scene of campaign 2 for me for as long as I might live.

@@Drakijy not enough love for culinaromancy in fantasy universes

Equal lack of mercy lol The two sides of destroying a person entirely

his speach that ended with the mourning comment is one of the most stunning, cutting and epic quots I have ever come across

Amen

@@satan6954 Hello Satan

We all have unique dreams typically, but this one we share.

@@satan6954 Hail!

*raises hand*

I need episodes and timestamps for these, they're hilarious

Do you have an episode number? I need to see that because I can’t for the life of me remember that

@@arancourt5623 It's the VERY end of 2x94. Like Just as their signing off.

As I was watching legend of vox Machina with my mom (who hasn’t seen critical role), any time there was a dope ass Percy line that was just lifted straight from the stream (“yours was the face I saw when murder entered my heart”) after the episode I just had to tell her “yeah he came up with that on the spot”. Cue jaw drop.

6:53

I really wanted his answer to be, wait for your next Christmas card Sam...

Holy shit that’s the best thought

More like he made food for Henry Crabgrass, but still, this is a good thought^^

Im in awe of the contrasts between them... Cad's soft "hey" even being hit and percy's "your soul is forfeited" while he brutally shoots and avenge

@@yuki97kira And then we got stuff like his “Good luck with your lady!” as Ashton or “Just… nudity, it usually works!” as Molly. 🤣

For me it's the opposite, I've only really seen him as Percy, so any time he's not brooding and intense in these clips I'm a little thrown off XD

I would never have called Cad arrogant. I can see where you get that,and I don't know that you're wrong, but it's a different take than I've heard of his character.

@@Ross_mo yeah it’s not arrogance in the same vein as Percy’s arrogance obviously...I honestly would never have seen it if I didn’t watch talks machina regularly and how taliesin describes cad’s thought process and how caddy’s a “project person”. It’s a very interesting layer to caddy as a character and I absolutely love it cuz I know people like that.

I love when people refer to Cad as old because I think he in the firbolg equivalent of, like, his early-to-mid 20's?

@@Ross_mo I think a more appropriate word would be confident for Cad.

Actually, I do have to agree with you when you call Cad arrogant. It’s in the best way possible, but towards the end of the campaign, he was definitely arrogant. I love it about him though. I think it helps define his character change throughout the story.

the owlbear is so quotable!

"I would like to hide"

"I hide"

"your death shall be grizzly."

"Danger, lurks behind you."

Where is that one from? I've never heard it.

he's not nice. He's kind.

To quote someone else who appeared in this video (albeit briefly), "There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man."

@@Ross_mo Didn't know there was a difference.

His Between the Sheets interview is worth watching. I do believe he has very few fox to give.

@@WTFisTingispingis As far as I understand it, nice is more about attitude or social etiquette, like being polite or agreeable, which is reactive, while kind is more about committed intentions, like expressing care and empathy, which is proactive. Niceness is usually in the presence of others to get recognition and is more self-oriented while kindness is doing those things regardless of who may or may not see and is more others-oriented. Tough love is (when done with good intentions in a way that is actually beneficial) as example of being kind to someone by doing/saying/etc what needs to be without necessarily being nice by just doing/saying what others want to make them superficially feel better. Niceness is more people-pleasing while kindness can affect actual, lasting change. Kindness is like niceness but a step further, and is more meaningful.

Definitely one of my favorite Caduceus moments!

You mean hell is quotable as Taliesin. Where do you think hell originated from?

“Pain doesn’t make people. It’s love that makes people. The pain is inconsequential, it’s love that saves them.”

Same...

imagine being called Silas hahaha

@@HenriqueErzinger my friend's name is Sylas, gonna send it to him

@@Buick_GSX So how did THAT go? :D

that's me with "Eyes never shut" like its the last thing he does as Molly and it gets me every single time.

too soon.

I'm planning on getting "EYES NEVER SHUT" small and tastefully somewhere as my first tattoo 😊

@@symphony_in_plaid4592 DO IT!!! im gonna get the molly tattoo design from the CR store and im either gonna do "Long May I Reign" or "Eyes Never Shut" with it. i can't decide lol

@@serendipity-moth ...how did I not realize they had tattoo designs available??

What episode is it from?

@@poetryislife1634 that should be c1e25

Long AND wide, you mean.

"Think about it."

Or some of the various puns Taliesin pulled off, up to where he caused Matt to go "Goddammit, Taliesin..."!

He is one of the members of the cast of Critical Role, a D&D group comprised of voice actors who got together to play D&D for fun and wound up transitioning their home game to a livestream. They are the rest of the cast.

Yeah, Taliesin was AWESOME there, even as Marisha and Orion were dorking around on the sidelines. Plus how scary Percy was interrogating the coach driver after Sylas and Delilah left him behind, giving us our first glimpse of No Mercy Percy..

THERE'S NOTHING ON THIS PIECE OF PAPER

He probably loves it even more now, tbh

I love how vague this is worded. Gets the point across without being spoilery. And with the added benefit of making non-caught-up critters go 'what the fuuuu....?'

Do you know what episode it's from?

6:52. You're welcome 😉

@@nicolerobertson2654 hahahahaha thank you!!!

@@selkiedraws No problem! Lol Not gonna lie though, as soon as I saw everyone talking about that part in the comments I was like, "Well now I need a permanent time stamp to come back to" 🤣🤣🤣

@@bipbap5079 Orion Acaba, who played Tiberious in Vox Machina for a while before he left the show. Apparently not the most loving end to that working relationship.

Odd, I don't see it covering anything. Just a quote-box in an empty void

@@MartinTraXAA Is it weird that I didn't even know Orion existed before going back and watching all of these old videos with him in it.

@@Erynne-Storm Yeah he kinda vanished. I don't have any real opinion about the dude either way, I've just noticed that most memory-holed him and the rest disliked him. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I am totally 100% normal about this. Also thank you

Thank you. Now to replay them over and over again. I totally don’t have a crush on this man. Nope not at all

Bless you!!

It’s the confident lean and crooked grin after the second one that’s the icing on the cake for me 😏

I have yet to figure out where these clips are from and it's killing me-

Not sure if it's his gaze or the posh almost British-esque accent which makes he sound like "This guy will fuck you up"

I really like him too! He deserves more credit

Hopefully we'll get a second video that includes some of those lines, such as "-hear, an unearthly, noise..." *Proceeds to make horrible shrieking tire pavement cat corpse noise.*

What episode was this from?
