Running a new out-of-context D&D quotes thread
Starting off with a few gems from our Curse of Strahd Campaign 2 years past:
• “A wolf in every pot and an organ in every room”
• “knights of the burning werewolf”
• “Eravan, that little punk ass”
• “No margaritas in Barovia”
• “At least before it was just fog. Now it’s snowy fog.”
• “Things going badly in Barovia”
• “Insight check on the vibe”
• “Sticks work as weapons if you stab hard enough”
No, Nesta does not, in fact, need to get kicked in the throat, shouted at or get her ass beaten. No Azriel should not give her a good ass kicking in ACSF. And this, no matter what she did in the past, no matter what she said to Feyre.
If you believe this is how it should go… If you believe that because Nesta was abusive in the first chapters of ACOTAR, then it excuses you suggesting verbal and physical abuse on a traumatised 25 year old fictional character to whom real people relate, then unfollow me and never set your foot near my blog ever again.
