Summary
“You accused me of treating this like a game. I am sorry if I’ve led you to believe that it is only a game—though I won't deny that part of it is.” Bren gives a disarming smile. “My life is either games or murder, after all.”
“Or mail fraud,” Thelyss says dryly, not even a little disarmed.
“The mail fraud is a sort of game as well.”
A sigh. “Is this your way of telling me that you intend to continue playing?”
Bren smiles again, sharper. “If you would let me.”(In which Bren Aldric Ermendrud decides to seduce the Shadowhand and finds that the best way to convince someone to be vulnerable with you is to be vulnerable in turn.)

Summary
“I want to kill him,” she says. She does not whisper it. It is not a secret, and threats are not meant to be soft.
Or:
Astrid, in the garden.

Touching Sentiments (Chronological) by Chanse (SpottedEnchants)
Fandom: Critical Role: Exandria (Web Series)
30 Nov 2025
Summary
The Mighty Nein are very comfortable with one another, boundaries established and reconfigured and settled well before Essek finally joins them.
Casual touch is a given with them; proximity was a necessity for safety in their early days. This, however, stands in stark contrast with Essek’s many decades. Walls, barriers, layers, space. Separation kept Essek safe.
It’s not that he hates touch, no. It had simply grown unbearable after so long without. Unexpected or held for too long, it burned.
And then they won him over, slowly, over time, as they are wont to do. Rather, he is one of them now.
