Summary
And he thinks he knows what it is, the warm red that's almost pink but not quite - because pink is lust, he knows that, sickly sweet like sugar, it's the want the need curling around his hips and fogging up his mind - it's redder and warmer and there's no expectation in it, no desire for sex or food or apologies, not like fervour or hunger or hurt.
I’ve had it with all stingy-hearted sons of bitches. A heart is to be spent. , Stephen Dunn, Sixty

Summary
All the worst days of Caleb’s life have started normally.
The day Ikithon calls him, Astrid, and Eodwulf in to tell them they’ve been chosen for special training.
The day he kills his parents.
The day he wakes up in the asylum.

Summary
After much thought on the matter, Caleb decided to take Molly up on his constant flirting. He decided this at 4:36 am, his traditional bedside alarm clock ticking away in the darkness, after two years of confusion and building desire.
Before Molly, he had believed himself straight.
He acted on this decision at two minutes past midnight, a week and a half later, at Jester’s birthday party.
Cue misunderstandings, lack of communication, and two pining idiots refusing to believe the other might have feelings for them. Now with art!

Summary
Caleb sees a phone out of the corner of his eye. He feels his hand tighten around the mic stand, hates knowing he is being recorded. He looks that direction as he continues singing, and he realises that the phone is being held by a bright blue hand. A few words later, the phone comes down and he sees familiar horns bedecked with bows, face turned towards a screen where she is very clearly sending a video to someone.
It can’t be.

Summary
“I’ve heard that word before, in stories, I think. If I remember correctly, they were a sort of higher power that would follow teams of adventurers on their quests.”
“Me, as well. They are said to exist in a plane outside our own, and as they follow, they have the power to influence events as the adventurers live through them.”
“What, and you think one of these—these creepy entities is stalking us?”
Matthew Mercer was tired. Physically. Mentally. Emotionally. He’d been getting headaches for the past week or so, and it was making it really difficult to sleep or plan the next session of Critical Role. He thought he could ignore it.
The Mighty Nein had simply been on their way to town to buy supplies. Nothing had seemed strange—not until they arrived to see everyone there frozen in place, as if some spell was cast on them. But there was no magic. They had to figure out what was going on. -

and it must hurt to throw a fist and be the one to take the hit by RadioFreeHayden
Fandoms: Julie and The Phantoms (TV 2020)
03 Aug 2022
Tags
Summary
The possession endeavor is, put simply, extremely disappointing.
It’s clear after only a few short weeks that Caleb needs to ditch this body and this plan altogether. This, however, comes with its own complications: he’s been in Nick’s head, and as much as he’s tried to shove his consciousness as far back as possible, he’s sure the child has picked up on a not-insignificant portion of Caleb’s plans for Julie’s little hologram band. Caleb can’t very well free Nick and allow him to run straight to the phantoms to spill all his secrets.
Killing him is the obvious solution.

“You said no teasing.” She shoves my shoulder and I catch her wrist before she can fully retreat.
“I’m not,” I say softly. Any louder and my voice might shake. I run my thumb over her pulse, finding it just as frantic as mine. Maybe she’s imagined this too. “Kiss me,” I whisper.

Summary
This was a line he couldn't un-cross. But even as he told himself that, his body—his traitorous body—seemed to disagree. The weight of the panties in his hands, the thought of you in his room moaning and calling out his name with that look in your eye... It was overwhelming.
It was all just his fantasy, but he couldn't help it.
Or
Caleb found your red lace panties that you accidentally left in his room. His self-control cracked and he finally succumb to his deepest desires.

Bookmarker's Notes
“The first time Caleb considers killing Nott is the first time he also considers killing himself.”
“He wants to say, She took away the louds, but she didn’t fix me. Nothing can fix me, not the way I am. I fight against it every day, and it’s going to catch up with me, I know it. I killed me parents, me. It was me there, in my head. It’s always been me.”
this is literally the best depiction of caleb’s mental state I’ve ever read. this is canon to me

'Would You Rather' and other ways to Annoy your Wizard by thatoldeblackmagic
Fandoms: Critical Role (Web Series)

Summary
“Caleb.” Jester slouches so far off the bed to the point where she is nearly on the ground. “Caleb. Caaaleeeb, I’m bored.” She reaches up and jabs her pointer finger into his cheek, twisting it so he can just feel a crescent dig into the side of his face.
He’s been reading the same paragraph for a full minute now, none of the words even processing as distracted as he is, and Caleb knows well enough when a task is fruitless. So, with a sigh, he shuts the book, brings it down semi-lightly onto Jester’s stomach, and says, “Hello bored. I am Caleb.”

Summary
He should have left. He should have saved himself from this. Compounding losses are not conducive to his goals. He should not care enough about these people he has known for only a month to be so hurt about their deaths.
But Mollymauk Tealeaf lies lifeless on the ground, yards away, the slow bleeding of his body turning the ostentatious rainbow of his attire to dull blacks and browns.
--------
The remaining members of the Mighty Nein attempt to pull themselves together and save Mollymauk. A unique situation calls for a unique solution.

He should be better than this, so that others do not, cannot, continue to do this to him.

Even furniture is granted more dignity than this.

Summary
He hears a whispered curse from Molly as he kneels down in front of Caleb and gently makes him look up, a hand on each cheek as he carefully wipes some of the falling tears away with his thumbs. He worries his lips before mutturing “I suppose this is that 'later' I mentioned, isn't it?” and darts back off into the other room.
OR : I wrote an entire fic because I thought of one line and was like "shit that's good"
