When Laura casts message I swear it summons actual Jester and she loses all control for the next 25 words!

[@tinkrebelle]

just 25 words? I think you mean more like 100+ words XD (also, don't mean to be a spell nazi or anything, but it's actually sending, not message :P)

[@Albatross0913]

Cute pfp

[@eric_moore-6126]

And then their's Imogen's messages.

[@jackmyers8687]

"I'll give it some flair." Famous last words.

[@michaelhwang6025]

the D&D equivalent of "hold my beer"~

[@jackmyers8687]

It's the way she says "doing creepy shit" and immediately regrets it!

[@LadyLier17]

Cadeucus here. We've been doing things; creepy shit.

[@theGhoulman]

haaa! Everyone in the cast is so funny and wonderful, and then there's Tal who just lands funny insights like this. He's usually so quiet, but when he nails it ... :D

[@hotscottrulz]

I love how Laura seems to just completely lose control of herself when Jester sends messages. She just says things without entirely meaning to, and has to clamp her hands over her mouth to stop speaking!

[@danielstephens1185]

I'm pretty sure she's just as shocked by Jester as everyone else. She actually seems to react like "Jester, no! Shut up, why?!"

[@graysondraven]

Two things 1. Laura never think before using Sending its always gold 2. I need "We've been doing things, creepy shit" on a t-shirt like so bad

[@lucyfleet1944]

Yes

[@delilahkreitz822]

And now with Imogen it’s so calm…… so weird

[@8Rincewind]

"Caduceus here" has the same energy as "Zuko here".

[@scorpius1401]

Nice

[@zipcc]

She is so good at getting into and staying in character. she knows she shouldnt waste the words, but she puts on her Jester and just goes for it. Every message is a classic

[@Sonics1DiscordKitten]

Where Jester ends and Laura begins is frighteningly close

[@stevesmith5883]

Laura Bailey is the Jester Lavorre of our realm.

[@ragnaroksolstice5832]

Current head cannon for this is that any of them always keeps track of how many words are spoken by Jester each time she does a Sending, both IRL and in-game, too....

[@GodBear97]

I love to imagine that Fjord is doing what Travis is doing, to help Jester keep track

[@royalewithcheese7]

I love how Laura is also surprised by Jester's message

[@SMKoZ]

The best part of this is that Sending is a straight up Cleric spell, not a Trickster Cleric spell. Caduceus could totally prepare and cast the spell himself, but they let Jester/Laura do it because it's wonderful.

[@couldarstrolm6969]

I hope Jester never changes

[@LoudAngryJerk]

I was walking my dog when I heard this part. Collapsing with laughter in public is.... uncomfortable to walk off. Especially in the snow.

[@Dudae_]

It's amazing to me how after 126 sessions spanning like 2 or 3 years Laura STILL can't do a sending right and even amazes herself with how stupid she can make them - i love it

[@yurigouveawagner9432]

for that entire episode jester was hilarious and laura's giggles were more powerful than ever. both her and travis were so happy and ready to joke with everything it was amazing.

[@PaiOeShi]

"wev'e been doing thingsCreEpYsHiT!....." omg, I died.

[@SPACEHARICE]

My head canon is jester in any spare time just messages random people they've met asks them "how you doing" They barely remembering who she is. Like Hello random guard I met walking down street

[@Celedam]

Why just head canon? She's actually done that. For example, Episode 89.

[@alexlandrum8871]

Yeah i mean she basically did this with the plank king

Each time I see sentences starting with "Hello random (insert random character" I immediately continue the sentence in my head in the format of Joe Wilkinson's poem about naming strangers' penises.

[@darkroselight3835]

Jester's Sending adventures are just the very best things. I love the dark stuff and the heartfelt character moments and the big battles that make you sweat, but my god. Every time Jester sends i just about pee my pants.

[@slade52]

1:49 Love Travis' head shake here. Just asking himself, "why is my wife the way she is?" lmao

[@jonathanhenderson9422]

Ashley's "clubbing baby seals" is an underrated reaction to Laura's "we've been doing things, creepy shit."

[@SuperMadman41]

You can see Laura's brain leak out of ears whenever she does this spell ;)

[@jonathanfairchild]

I love how caduceus is onboard with anything that happens. He gives a double thumb up like “hey, that went great, keep going! This is everything I wanted!”

[@ikanhazw1n]

Laura didnt play Jester, Jester merely inhabited her body briefly

Taliesin trying to stay in character with the thumbs up and trying to remind Jester of what she’s supposed to say and then just fucking losing it

[@danielstephens1185]

And Jester does it again. "Doot doot doot." "Donuts." "Hi, Dad." "Creepy sh*t." The whole two messages to Astrid. Ok where is that compilation video? I need a good, almost painfully so, laugh before bed. :D

[@dartdevious561]

DrEaMs HuH?!

[@stonecoldku4161]

As much as I love Jester's hilarious message Sending spells, there is one serious one that I hope they get to do later on. I have it in my head that if Fjord and Jester are still alive and it gets to the point where Fjord wants to ask Jester to marry him that he asks while having her use Sending. What I mean is that Fjord seems like a traditional type of guy, so he would be one to ask for Jester's mother's blessing to propose marriage to Jester. The scenario would be that Fjord wants to ask for Jester's hand, but can't wait to meet up with Marion to get permission as the Nein are far away, so he writes a 25 word message to Marion and gives it to Jester and tells her that he needs her to use Sending to Jester's mother. He tells Jester to not say anything else but what's on page he wrote. The message explains who it is, that he is madly in love with Jester and asks permission to propose. Fjord would then parlay that message of asking permission into his actual proposal to Jester. Like as she reads finishes reading it he is down on his knee with a ring, when Jester turns around. Mainly, I want to see the group's reaction to the note as Jester reads it. Especially Laura and Matt's as they're going to have to continue acting throughout the reading of the note.

[@toschiworlds7212]

[@joshuafoy9355]

New thought if/when there is wedding Jester invites The Traveler, Marion and The Gentleman to the wedding. I want to see Matt Mercer have to play all three characters interacting with each other at the same time.

[@DRKrust492]

They should have Jester send a few messages every session just for the entertainment value.

[@chichiriz]

jester is laura's animal spirit lol its laura but blue

[@generalzimpok]

I tried joining on online RPG group. The DM was really pissed we weren't any good at doing in voice character role playing like these guys. Like he expected a bunch of anti-social nerds to be professional actors and speakers. He literally chided us for not being like Critical Role.

[@Shortlan]

It’s a shame that was your experience, hope you find the right DM for you.

[@GreenShell212]

Laura's genuine surprise at what she's just said proves that Jester is her own being and Laura is just a conduit.

[@Kalenz1234]

Imagine if Matt makes message into a lvl 9 spell that requires a 100 gold sacrifice for campaign 3 because of what Laura did.

[@TheFansOfFiction]

Instead they have: Imogen who gets unlimited messages, but is much less funny about it, Laudna, who has the sending, in a hilarious way, FCG, who can make you feel like you are being watched, and a sending stone

[@Higgins546]

Man, really going to miss the Jester Lavore messages

Is there a versus count of all the healing spells that Jester cast vs all the Sending spells she used? I wanna know which one is greater 😂

[@isupposethisismynmw640]

Like it’s even a contest lol

[@DaniMartVTen]

Next time, just pour gasoline on your text message; flair is more reliable as flare.

[@shmolpuppet]

What spell allows Jester to cast message over long distances? Is it just the message cantrip, but some extra cleric class stuff or is there something bigger I am missing?

[@Candoran2]

It's the spell sending. It can send to anywhere on the same plane, and even (usually) to other planes.

[@3dagalathor]

Good morning Sir Shortlan, i was wondering why the Mighty Nien dont hire Veth's husband to make potions for them . i mean he is an alchemist by trade and I sure he would be more then happy to provide some aid to the group and his wife while they are away doing..."creepy shit". its just a thought.

[@Shortlan]

It would be a very good idea. Perhaps when they finally get to Nikodranas someone will have that sudden revelation! Either that or Matt will try to hint... (p.s not a big deal but it’s miss shortlan 😂)

[@3dagalathor]

@@Shortlan my apologies, and thanks for the replies.

[@kin2naruto]

Veth has already handed her husband MORE than enough money to get a new lab and start making lots of potions. But... he is still traumatized from both Vess De Rogna and his capture. He hasn't really tried to do alchemy again.

[@TheFansOfFiction]

@@kin2naruto Yeza and Veth spent the first week after getting him out of prison building a new lab and doing experiments together

[@Throrface]

Huh. I don't understand the joke with umlauts.

[@Demon8595]

Umlauts change the pronunciation of the words that they're in. Pretty much every other word Jester said after "creepy shit" was pronounced oddly, to say the least

[@Hellscrap3r]

This nearly made me choke to death when I saw it live.

[@theGhoulman]

Query; Why does the 'message' spell in Matt's game work like this? The actual rules are a completely different spell, really. I can't find any reference in DNDBeyond or the Wildmounte book. Help ?

[@Shortlan]

Jester uses the spell ‘Sending’ to send messages!
