Summary
Caleb's eyes flew open, unfocused and wide. He didn’t see her. Not really.
"Bitte, Vater - nein… Ich kann das nicht -"
“Caleb.” Beau’s voice was sharp, low. She glanced toward the others - still asleep, gods willing. “You’re not there. You’re with us.”
He shook his head, still locked in the memory, eyes darting. “The fire - das Feuer - I didn’t - bitte, nicht - please, don’t make me -”
She gripped his shoulders, firm but steady. “Listen to me. You’re safe. You’re not in Rexxentrum. You’re in a freezing-ass cave with the dumbest group of powerful idiots in Wildemount, and no one’s going to hurt you.”OR
When Caleb falls ill on a perilous journey through the mountains, Beauregard and the others take care of him. But Caleb’s battle isn’t just against his sickness - it’s against the trauma that haunts him. In the midst of his struggle, Beau is forced to confront how far Caleb has yet to come in trusting his friends - and how much further she’s willing to go to make sure he does.

Summary
The spell flickers, fire fizzling out before it can even take shape or warm his fingers.
He hardly has time to think before the world tilts.
He must have missed his footing. He's going off the edge of the cliff. He really hopes his friends don't waste time trying to go down and find him. He'll fall and fall and then it'll all just stop and that's not what he wants, not anymore, not for awhile now, but it's still okay. It's still -
The last thing Caleb hears is Jester's voice, high and alarmed. Then, darkness.
OR
Caleb gets sick and doesn't tell anyone. Because, of course. His new friends have something to say about this.

Summary

Summary
“Worried about me, circus man?” Caleb teased. Something about his tone made Molly stutter in their movements, face flushing.
Molly’s smile melted into a smirk. “That’s up to you. Would you like me to be?”
—
It started as a simple quest. As most things do when it comes to the Mighty Nein, it went sideways almost immediately.

Summary
The Bright Queen settles on a relatively peaceful punishment for Essek's treason. It's a better solution than he ever could have expected. It's fine. Really. He shouldn't be as miserable as he is.
As far as the rest of the Nein are concerned, a forced marriage is still an unacceptable resolution, particularly when it's plain to everyone Caleb and Essek are head-over-heels in love with each other.

Summary
Deirta Thelyss may not have been of den Kryn, but she was about as close as one could get without climbing back into the Luxon and trying again. She had been consecuted eight hundred years ago, and was nearly as old as Leylas herself, or so they say. The Light had shone upon her and granted her, finally, two children - her golden boy, Verin, and her silver moon child, Essek. Both she loved, in her own way - though, Essek mused as he traced the gilded lettering of his dinner invitation, it was a peculiar sort of love. He couldn’t help feeling there was something missing in the flinch behind his mother’s eyes when she looked at him, how she rose to the occasion in public but did everything she could to pretend he was a ghost behind closed doors.
The invitation was gilded in gold. I understand the hint, Mother.

Summary
“Yash, your fucking cat got out again”
A crash follows on the other side of the door, and Yasha calls back to her from inside their tiny bathroom. "Can you get him, please?”
An exasperated groan leaves Beau’s lips while pressing her forehead into the door that separates the two of them. "He fucking hates me. He’s never gonna let me carry him back inside”
"I can't come out now. Just get him, please"
Yasha's plea makes her push back against the door curiously, and a teasing hint finds Beau's tone of voice. "Why can't you come out and get him yourself?"
It takes a minute and some shuffling inside their bathroom before Yasha answers in a tone of embarrassment. "Because I'm covered in body glitter, Beau. Remember the shit you brought back from that show you went to-"
"Okay, okay, okay. I'll get the fucking cat" Beau relents without too much trouble - and she dashes into the hallway while trying very hard not to picture her roommate naked and covered in body glitter.

Summary
The Traveler decides to add two problems and get a solution. After all, he has a spirit in need of a body, and there is a mage who could make a new body easily enough but not a spirit.
Pity he's been driven to the brink of utter madness by three hundred years of solitary confinement.
Mollymauk Tealeaf isn't used to being dead, and is even less used to being addressed by gods, travelling through dimensions, and being ignored by distressingly pretty but very troubled mages. Still, he intends to stick it out-- this man clearly needs a friend. But with a little divine intervention all things are possible.

Summary
"You wanted them to take you"
His lips are numb as he says it. Like Nott's flask had spilled across his face. He almost wishes she had it.
But the way Caleb's eyes look him over, calculating whether he can lie or not, wash a whole different sort of cold numbness across his body.
Caleb sighs, the Nein's attention frozen on him.
"This is not the first time I've been interrogated. And it probably won't be the last. I'm actually...quite used to this. I had assumed I would be the best person for this...excersize" he explains without question.Series

This is just a collection of one-shots that I am challenging myself to do one each day in December. They will all be Critical Role, but will range between Campaign 2 and 3 mostly with maybe a little based on Legend of Vox Machina. I AM NOT CAUGHT UP in Campaign 3 and am on episode 35, so please no spoilers in any comments. Tags, relationships, and characters will be updated as the month progresses. Here is a link to the prompts I will be using: https://www.writerswrite.co.za/31-writing-prompts-for-december-2022/
