Remember that Vex went and asked Scanlan for advice on illusory magic and in an uncharacteristic moment of seriousness he tells her
Tag: scanlan shorthalt
Scanlan: before we do, I want you all to know that I love you all and I wish us all the best of luck today. Especially Pike. And I’m so glad she’s here with us
Scanlan: but if some of us don’t return, I think the glory of what we’re doing today, and the justice of what we’re doing today has been worth it. And Percy I hope you get some redemption in all this
Keyleth: to the de Rolos
Scanlan: to the de Rolos
Keyleth: to Whitestone
Percy: to Whitestone
Vex: to Vox Machina
All: to Vox Machina
Underrated moments:
Scanlan tries to steal Vax’s dagger. Vax notices, easily and catches his arm.
He then proceeds to pinch his nose, whilst Scanlan goes, “oh, come on, not in front of Pike!”
Vax ignores him, but eventually lets go and takes back his dagger
Underrated moments:
Pike does a three point landing after obliterating an undead stone giant, picks up her shield, and tosses a glance at Scanlan.
Scanlan faints.
Pike: where are you at Scanlan?
Scanlan: mentally or physically? Because mentally, I’m in love with you!
Pike: no, I mean physically
Scanlan: physically I’m fine
Scanlan, talking about Pike: look at her Grog. She’s healing an innocent bystander. She didn’t have to, she’s just doing it because she’s so good
Underrated moments:
Grog going to fight a zombie stone giant with Pike and Scanlan sitting on his shoulders
Scanlan: hey baby!
Pike: hi!!
Scanlan: man I’m so distracted by your beauty. Do you wanna kick some ass together?
Pike: yeah!
And then she jumps off a wall, wreathed in the light of Sarenrae into a horde of undead soldiers. With a natural 20.
PIKE IS THE REAL MVP
The purest thing about that whole sequence of badassery is how impressed the cast is by Sam. I mean AS THEY SHOULD BE but also they’re so impressed and it’s great
Scanlan Shorthalt really just Did That
