One of Cad's finest moments, next to his speech about pain to Trent!

@@maryhales4595 "The pain is inconsequential. It's love that saves them." That speech, from the same character that gave us "We're running! It's bad!" Cad is a gold mine of quotes both poetic and hilarious.

@@kenpokid10 Yes! He's my favorite C2 PC for that very reason.

"the world is so much more beautiful in all the shades of colors" to *_"snea snakes"_*

@@Sammie1053 Don't forget going from Veth's speech to Essek and then Molly going "When in doubt, if anything goes wrong--- Just... nudity! It usually works!" as well as "YOU HAVE NO LEGAL AUTHORITY OVER ME!!"

who did he say that to? Essek?

@@GabrielLima-mj5xf Yes!

When did he say if?

So much got done in the episode where half the cast was bathed in glitter.

@@chartreusephoenix6581 during the live show

SAME I WAS COOKING A BOX OF KRAFT MAC AND CHEESE AND I DID A SPIT TAKE

@@greatestaxolotl4933 im so sorry but u are not the mother 😭😭😭

@@k.whatever9046 lol what? i don't understand what u are saying lol. i am saying that i was making kraft mac and cheese and it caught me off guard to hear essek say it.

@@greatestaxolotl4933 oh i was just saying that bc esseks mom never made mac n cheese, u are not eligible to be his mom and this is sad news. twas just meant to be a joke but i can see why it would've been confusing, sorry!

@@k.whatever9046 oh haha thanks for explaining 😅

Probably "Damn, Liam/Taliesin's back at it again"

I wonder if sometimes it’s “this from Mr Life Needs Things To Live?”

When people are allowed to inhabit a character, these things can happen. I've had players come to me after a session where they just CRUSHED it, and they wonder where the words came from. It's part of the magic of RPGs.

Probably something like this... Travis: (after accidentally disintegrating the Laughing Hand's statue of its ashen state) "Uh...let the winds take you to your place of rest." (Sam and Marisha laugh.) Taliesin: "That's real deep. ... Did you just think of that?" Travis: "Yeah. I mean, it just came to me on the winds. Wildmother be...up in here."

"Apathy is death. Worse than death, because at least a rotting corpse feeds the beasts and insects."

Mine too plus “YOU HAVE NO LEGAL AUTHORITY OVER ME!!!!”

That "you couldn't" was soooooo fast though. Just **chef's kiss**

@@jordanpeterson5140 I also love stuff like "Vegetarian, so I hope that the meal reflects that." or "How do you smell?" / "I smell like a crayon!".

Agreed

And it reminds us how hard it was for Fjord to be a leader now and then. XD

I don't think so, abyssal probably just has a different word order than English.

@@hithedragon7842 yeah, most languages work that way

And now we also have... A robot named Pussy canonically lmao

Sounds more like the name caroline doesnt have an abyssal equivalent.

@@Kris-wo4pj I don't think names normally get translated in general

Honestly in the top 10 speeches I’ve ever heard.

Caduceus Gods Damned Clay, A Maker of Fine Graves.

"Good night."

@@dude59974 Also brewer of dead people teas.

Up there with what Caduceus said about how pain doesn’t make people, but love does.

Right? It's a wonder just how quickly his face can go from normal color to freaking STRAWBERRY within seconds 🤣🤣

6:48

I think that was Molly, must've been Ep. 2 or 3.

That was Molly

It would have been funny if Molly had replied with "the shells have been devoured"

Duuuuude... this was not needed. Do not touch the sad-shower's-thinkers box

No because he has Caleb to comfort him. And then Caduceus because... Y'know. He's part of Den Nein now, forever and always. The children and grandchildren will keep him company.

C3 Ep1 (843 post divergence) is 8 years after the 1st ep of C2 (835 post divergence), so essek is happily living life with his still fully alive m9 family so i dont think he’s alone that often so long as jester is alive to lovingly pester him with sending spells, caleb continues be his romantic interest and maybe even husband (we dont know lol let me dream), maybe even help caduceus at the grove, sail on the nein heroez w/ fjord kingsley jester, teach children at veth’s summer camp for youthful adventurers, or help beau with general research. Point is he has his hands full i think he’s not thinking about the past anymore and living happily in the moment

No, because Essek doesn’t sleep, he trances. 😎

Caduceus is my favorite.

Taliesen just shows what a philosopher's soul he has. His characters tend to be my favorites.

It’s all in the timing considering Caduceus got stuck in mud again, so Taliesin just had to shoot it out fast!

I've never noticed. I was too busy having my heart broken by Jester. To me, this is the "Fix him!" of campaign 2. The more innocent/child-like character dealing with the death of a friend by lashing out in anger.

@@cryofpaine 😭😭

Then there is Liam up there looking like the sexy time turtle from that one video. lol.

@@DarkmoonWitch Or his excitement when Caleb gets turned into a sheep. :D

By far my favourite moment personally

When was it?

​@@wertaszxepisode 140 ithink

and sam!!

@@kierasharkey4228 Sams would be at least 2 hours long🤣

Only if, by all that's unholy, you DON'T let them plan anything first. When it's all mad improvisation, the M9 succeeds beyond their wildest expectations. They try to plan? COSMIC levels of disaster.

@@samuraiko really the optimal stratagy would be to have one guy, like Charlie from Charlies Angels, be in charge of them. but instead of a phone call explaining what's up, he just takes them on a flying carpet ride above the problem/mission, barks like 2 lines of instructions and kicks the whole lot of them off the side to figure out the rest on the way down

@@TheCreepyLantern Sooooo…. Essek’s Dumbasses?

@@samuraiko reminds of the boondock saints

They become nein unstoppable!

Campaign 3*

@@cornelia3912 right, thank you!

Well, if you find you're enjoying campaign 3 and want some more CR between Thursdays, I would definitely suggest going back and watching C2. They are so talented, the story is amazing, and it's like 600 hours of free entertainment, you really can't go wrong.

@@littlefurnace I know it’s awesome and I know about the characters through cultural osmosis, 600 hours is just a lot of time xD but maybe I’ll go check it out

Welcome! This is gonna be a fun ride

My favorite Taliesin gem is his little champion speech to fjord. "Eventually, some day, somebody will pray for a miracle, pray for something to save them, to whatever gods are nearby, and that prayer will be answered because you'll show up. That's how it works. That's what a champion is." That shit is straight up inspiring. It makes me want to play a straight paladin kind of inspiring.

What'd you end up choosing? :)

@@amelianyquist1215 "Patience is fine"

yess favourite line!!

I swear that'll get me every time

@@thunderfury_fgc it‘s the rule of CR: Matt cries, we all cry

@@thunderfury_fgc Do you happen to know what episode the quote was from?

@@etherix5267 can't tell you the exact episode, but it is definitely more towards the end of the campaign, when they were convincing Essek to join them / after he joined up with the team for the final assault kinda thing I think. I know it doesn't narrow it aot but it is a least after the break they took during the pandemic, since they are in the distances setup they had after that (the pre-recorded episodes

I bet Matt had thought "God, I love that woman!" after the look he gave Marisha. :) And it also reflects how Essek must have felt when Beau said that to him.

Or Fjord and his “FUCK YOU GUYS!! WAAHH, HELP ME!!” during the roc fight 😊

It sounds like it could have been said by a Chinese philosopher centuries ago! But props to Taliesin for that line from Caduceus.

As others have said, it's like Grog when he went "FIX HIM!!" after Scanlan was killed in action fighting Raishan, which is why it is so good because of how Jester was still coping with Molly being dead, like Grog being shaken by Scanlan's death.

I *know* its somewhere around here...

I WILL LOOK FOR THE BREAD!

I had a theory for a long time that every time Taliesin turns a new colour, that's the next shade he dyes his hair.

im experiencing it for the first time currently and am not looking forward to finishing it at all. im only halfway through and i already miss this family of dumbass friends

@@k.whatever9046 the attachment is only gonna get stronger 😭

Idk man molly's death, jester crying because the traveler didnt help her and molly died, yasha finally coming back and healing only for her to be mind controlled again for months, beau almost giving up her entire life for her friends, all the shit with caleb and veth's family too many gut punches in a row. Tho theres alot of good times as well i think i just dont want all those gut punches while im prepping myself for the new gang to break my heart and still need to break my heart with vox machina (only a few episodes into the chroma conclave). Its like a beautiful story i can look back to fondly and chuckle at a few scenes but all that at all over again is a no go i think atleast for me.

@@Kris-wo4pj If I could go back to it with a clean slate, not knowing that any of those things happen, I'd honestly let this gang break my heart all over again 😭❤️

I will say that I felt it could have ended way earlier than it did. I feel like they just kept going with it as they loved the characters so much, but to me atleast it did begin to outlive it's need. It's ok to just end things sometimes without having to wrap up every last plot thread, they could have done some M9 one-shots like they did for VM. 140+ 3-4 hour episodes is just way too much to realistically expect anyone to be able to get through. That's around about 450-560+ hours of content for someone to catch up on. 23.5 days if you watched it non stop.

No one said Veth/Nott made sense in any phase of her time with the Mighty Nein. 😂

Im in the 30s right now, so that after a certain badguy gettting his HEAD VAPORIZED was wonderful.

What episode is that from?

Yeah, or something like Jester’s “Did you just ask her about her period?”

and most of the chaotic stuff comes from sam riegel

Yeah - much as I've been enjoying the Vox Machina series, you just couldn't take the same approach to C2. It's..... deeper, more subtle, more ridiculous, more ambitious.

Good catch!!!!

finale! 141, 4 hours 45 minutes

thank you i’ve watched it like 15 times already trying to catch everyone’s reaction

“Man, Marion Lavorre is SO GOOD!”
