Happy S2 finale to @sunlessreach.bsky.social I decided to commission my dear @wallabri.bsky.social for the Delta Crew wearing silly novelty sunglasses after a discussion @jadeoxfordrose.bsky.social and I had. They need to prep for when the sun comes back, after all!

a colored illustration of four people wearing novelty sunglasses. From left to right: Viidra is a dark skinned man with curly locs and a closely trimmed goatee; he has bright green sunglasses with a thick frame that looks kind of frog-like. His eyes are yellow and have a slightly sideways pupil. Ela is a pale skinned woman with bright red hair in a ponytail; she has star glasses that fade from blue up top to pink at the bottom, and there are small dangly details hanging from the bottom of the stars. Ksana is a short older woman with white hair; she has sunglasses that are thick red frames in the style of cats-eye frames but made into a heart. Apricus is a dark skinned man with a bandana on his head and a goatee; he's wearing red flame sunglasses.

The temptation to do one final dark academia joke is real, but I didn’t want to hit a bundle of nerves with it. So instead I’ll just ask: hey, you all ready for the finale in two weeks?! #pathfinder2e #actualplay

I just keep coming back to the poor frogs. From Grandeladge to the Delta, no amphibian is safe. I wonder how many frogs Calanthe thought she saved when they traveled together, only for Treju to secretly steal them back for a snack later. #pathfinder2e #actualplay

I think we as a group did not realize the absolute level of cool that Cipru was bringing to the table. We did not exhaust his dialogue tree and learn his secrets. Still, we got his approval high enough that he showed up big time in this map defense level. #pathfinder2e #actualplay

I know what you’re thinking: “Apricus in weird situations with old university cohorts? She’s going to make a dark academia joke”. No, of course not, that’s not the joke. Apricus considering letting himself get killed then resurrected for the sake of an experiment, though--🤔 #pathfinder2e #actualplay

Now suddenly I see Why they call you a monster and not me -- Elżbieta Wrona, my Dhampir Investigator from @sunlessreach.bsky.social Art by @welldipper.bsky.social #pathfinder2e #ocsky #pathfinderoc

A storybook style illustration of a woman and a wolf walking through a forest. Elzbieta, a young woman with long red hair, wears a long dark coat and holds a musket in her left hand, the right gripping the fur of the large wolf beside her. The sparse forest around them is all bare branches and casts dappled shadows over the pair. The image has a thick frame with various vines and leaves. At the bottom is the Errol family crest - a stylized E with two lions rampant framing it on either side and a pair of crossed swords behind them.

Alright this is probably inevitable payback for all the times that I made fun of Apricus and Nico being exes and dark academia etc etc but that doesn’t mean you have to throw a fireball at me. #pathfinder2e #actualplay

Tańcuj i szalej jak dziki jesienny wiatr Za miłość, raz i dwa, za miłości kwiat -- Dragomir & Mariska, before @sunlessreach.bsky.social art by @sharpace.bsky.social 💞

a painted image of a man and a woman dancing and looking at each other. Their left hands are held up over their heads and the right are joined before the.

On the left is Dragomir, a blond man with a neat beard and blue eyes. He's wearing a knee length black kaftan with red geometric embroidery around the hem, and a bird detail on the front panels.

On the right is Mariska, a young woman with long dark brown hair and hazel eyes. She's wearing a floral crown of small red flowers, greenery, and topped by raven feathers. Two long red ribbons fall from the side with white leaf embroidery. She's wearing clothing in a traditional polish style, with lots of red beaded necklaces and red and black embroidery on the sleeves of her shirt. She has a red scarf wrapped around her waist with more white embroidery matching the headpiece, and her red skirt swirls around her as they dance.

Is there a joke to be made here about the Sunken Tune being a song that gets stuck in your head and it’s so catchy that you black out, and when you come out of it finally you find 35 dead, 215 injured, or is that ‘too soon’ #actualplay #pathfinder2e

Every time you go and see family and they’re like “no it’s okay you don’t have to dress up for it, it’s super casual, yeah you can bring your friends” and then you get there but everyone looks GREAT and your cousin won’t stop being annoying to your friends? Yeah it’s like that. #pathfinder2e
