1. You are on the wrong continent to play Critical Role.
2. You are not caught up on Critical Role. They're not going to roll back the story 50 episodes or so just so you can join in.
3. You are not a character in Critical Role, either.
4. Critical Role does not take place in Fallen London.
5. You do not know how to make a lightsaber. No, not even if Percy helps.
6. You cannot break through two different layers of reality (from Fallen London to the world of Critical Role, and from there to the 'real world') so you can steal the DM's notes and METAGAME. No. Stop.
The way you actually knew it was a dream: getting wifi on your phone when, and I quote, "there's no wi-fi in the Neath". Really, self? REALLY? It's getting wi-fi in Fallen London that broke your suspension of disbelief? Really?
(Then I lucid-dreamed my way into stealing the DM's notes but woke up before the actual metagaming could happen.)

Date: 2017-06-26 09:45 pm (UTC)I also dreamed of being a guest star on Critical Role. Except then something was wrong with the set and I just got to hang out with the cast while they fixed it. At some point I think magical penguins were involved? And a really complicated map. Idk.

Date: 2017-06-29 10:07 pm (UTC)Even when I do realise I'm dreaming my attitude is usually to keep going with the flow, because it's fun.

(BTW, are we connected in Fallen London? I play as Brigdh there too, if you want to exchange suspicions or duel plants or whatever.)

Yeah, I have the same problem. I'm really only playing now when a special event happens.

I find it reassuring that I'm not alone in this -- it's a shame though, because the lore is fascinating
