Im at work and nobody knows that im painting Doris from Shrek in Pre-Raphaelite style on my ipad.

#look there's been many incredible moments in cr. but in my opinion nothing has topped the sheer weight of this one.#like. sam had a secret plan bc sam always has a secret plan#he's a really clever player and scanlan thrives on being able to pull out something crazy in the nick of time#and throughout this fight he is SO careful and SO clever#he's constantly maneuvering himself to perfectly block vecna's attacks without matt realising#but he uses his 7th level countering vecna's feeblemind on marisha - bc if they lose keyleth they lose the fight#his 8th counters vecna's banishment on pike and grog#bc if they lose grog they don't have all the trammels and their ability to banish vecna goes way down#and then there's the teleport. and sam hasn't even told everyone his secret plan but he knows he can't use his 9th#bc he needs to use that wish after this fight but before the raven queen comes for vax for this to work - he cannot wait another day#but teleport is 7th level. if he counters with any other remaining spell slot it's gonna come down to a dice roll#a single roll where if you lose vecna wins the whole world. and even then he asks. is it worth it.#they don't know the actual question they're answering but it's 'is saving the world worth losing vax'. and of course vax would say yes#but there's a moment where everyone is celebrating that scanlan still had a 9th level. and no one's realised yet why sam is mourning#and it KILLS me (tags via @your-turn-to-role)

Guess who's SOBBING in the bathroom over scanlan crying and vax noticing
