the only things that connected them to the group was the promise of protection, of shelter, of company (even if it’s bad company).

again, it’s a hard pill to swallow but it’s the truth. it’s weird to remember it, now that they’ve spent so much time together and gone through so much. There wasn’t much that tethered caleb and nott to the nein in the early days of the group. because he’s done so much for her and she’d do everything for him. but because he follows through (he doesn’t think so, thinks his word isn’t worth anything (thinks that he isn’t worth anything) but he has proven different every single time). not because he’s smarter then her (even though he is) and not because he is way more capable then her (even though he is). their friendship is the most valuable thing in the world to her.) what makes him stick to her but she wouldn’t trade it for anything.

she doesn’t understand what makes them click so well. (she doesn’t really think that caleb has any reason to like her either. no one in her clan had any reason to like her and no one outside her clan had one, either. it’s not that hard to believe, really, considering the creature that she is and the kind of person that she is. in all of her not-so-glorious nine goblin years of life, she hadn’t had one friend, until the wizard showed up in her life. it’s a hard pill to swallow but it’s the whole truth. If she gets her wish, and is allowed to gain a body she feels better reflects who she is on the inside, then alcoholism and kleptomania are liable to still be problems for her (but perhaps easier to deal with problems then they would have been had she remained a Goblin).( red dead redemption 2 / meme. However, I don't see many of her issues and compulsions being magic'd away. Its part of why (if we continue these more personal story arcs) I hope its Nott who gets one next, followed by Beau.Īs for Nott's desire to 'be changed', I always sort of assumed her intention was to be a Halfling if she had the option. Both of these issues will need to be dealt with eventually, in some form or another. and none of the other characters seem to take it seriously. Her drinking (self-medicating to make herself numb) is also something that has gotten much, MUCH worse within this current Fjord arc. Nott's self-hatred is an element that really hasn't been explored all that much (neither has her reasons for fearing water).
