Emily from the story Elite TAG. 🎲

📣 Interesting fact:

“Emily's family grew up poor in the Phillippines, but when her mother remarried and moved to Australia, her life changed. She attended high-class functions from a young age and learned many things to please her new stepfather: the piano, Chinese, and how to behave in high society. While her natural intelligence made learning these things enjoyable, the stress of living up to a family name wore on her.

University, surrounded by peers who shared her interest in computer science and did not care about the Wentworth name, was the happiest time of her life. Even so, she still retains some of her taste for the finer things from those childhood years.”

Character’s Profile!

~Blaine Rayburn

"Hiding was easier than facing my fears. But... one person challenged me. Made me think. She showed me that I can be brave and decisive. I’m very grateful for that." 

Book: Theodora

Blaine is an eccentric Scottish fashion designer and dressmaker who works at Madame Rosetta's House, a burlesque club in the Italian city of Forramo. Theodora (MC) meets him when she starts working at the House in 1963. He's rather reserved, doesn't like crowds and rarely leaves the House, where he also lives in a room attached to his workshop. According to Claudia, one of the House employees, half of the House is pining for him. Blaine likes his job and has a respectful relationship with Rosetta, being grateful to her for the creative freedom she gives him.

Interesting Fact:

Blaine suffers from nightmares. They are about the war and the moment when he shot a German soldier. The bullet hit the soldier's shoulder, and Blaine never learned whether the wound was fatal or not.

Finished my reference sheets for @tokyoghoulartfight2024 at long last! (Note: I removed Aoki’s gold earring because it looked weird)

Individual profiles

Shizuya Kei: Quinx, Blood Type AB+, 5'10. 28.

A solo-operating First-class investigator who underwent the Quinx surgery with a Bikaku kagune from an ghoul known as Kelpie. Prior to meeting Aoki he was almost completely apathetic, but as the two have collaborated, Aoki's requests have rejuvenated a desire for life in him. Also, his vision is awful. He sees blurs of color at best.

Aoki: Ghoul, Blood Type A-, 5'3. 24.

The infamous S~ rank Kakuja, codenamed "Kelpie", currently imprisoned in Cochlea; the grey oversized clothing is his prison attire. However, as opposed to being forced there, Aoki is there by choice, comfortably living in safety from his fellow ghouls as he directs Shizuya to eliminate various ghouls and gives him the advice needed to do so. (Note: I accidentally switched his earrings around for the Kakuja form, the base ref has them right) DO:

Draw them in ships, they have a weird gay thing going on with each other but they can absolutely be weird with another person, just know they're a package deal. If one of them is dating a character the other one either will be too or will be third wheeling.

Draw them interacting with canon characters/your OCs

Change their outfits/hair/whatever as long as they're them, Aoki's markings are just little patterns he he's taught himself to make on his skin with RC cells out of boredom in Cochlea so they can take just about any shape.

Blood/gore/angst

Ask me any additional questions about them!

DO NOT:

Draw NSFW of them

lighten Aoki's skin (lighting and stuff affects it of course but he's not pale)

Mutual Story (under the cut for length but I strongly encourage anyone interested to read it!)

Shizuya grew up in an entirely unremarkable lower-middle-class family with even less remarkable grades; he was never really expected to go far by anyone, so when he was accepted into the CCG training school he believed it might finally be his time. In reality he just had an aptitude for fighting, and by looking at his records V determined that if he were to die in action his body would not be highly sought after and therefore make suitable food for the garden.

Though he doesn't know the latter, he managed to figure out the prior by the time he graduated, but continued as a rank 3 investigator on the principle that he simply didn't have anywhere else to go. Despite being a talented fighter, he was so severely dispassionate and depressed that he never rose through the ranks and amassed scars from simply being careless in fights. The only thing that really interested him was joining his coworkers at bars and such after their shift, but Shizuya didn't know how to start up a conversation and mostly just ended up listening silently as they chattered and feeling emptier than before.

Aoki, meanwhile, grew up on the streets with a burning resentment towards just about everyone. Despite being claimed as part of a "pack" of ghouls, they abandoned him and his mother when they were cornered by Investigators, and his mom, who had been sharing her food with Aoki, didn't have the strength to outrun them. Instead she hid him as best she could in an alleyway, covering him in tattered blankets as she was cornered. Aoki watched, horrified and powerless to help as they killed her and called ghouls heartless beasts.

Aoki has never been able to forgive the ghouls that abandoned him, nor himself for not trying to help her, even if at such a young age couldn't have done a thing regardless, so he channeled his self-loathing into external hatred of his own species. He almost strictly consumed ghouls, eventually developing his Kakuja.

The "Kelpie" name is more fitting than just aesthetics, as one of his main strategies was to use his day job as a dancer to lure fellow ghouls to his home under the guise of kinship, just to devour them. However, this worked progressively less as he developed a reputation among ghouls and the CCG alike, and counterattacks became increasingly threatening in spite of his strength.

Their meeting was little more than coincidence. Shizuya was assigned to dispatch some ghouls that had been causing trouble in the 10th district, and Aoki happened to be attacking the same group. Shizuya got to them first, while Aoki watched from a distance, undetected. Aoki was overcome with an idea as he saw Shizuya dispatch these ghouls without a single spark of the hatred that he'd seen in the investigators that killed his mother, just melancholy.

Aoki attacked Shizuya, fully covered in his Kakuja. Aoki slashed his face, and Shizuya realized rather starkly that this wasn't like his other fights, where he was injured out of a lack of caring; Aoki was fully capable of overpowering him. However, as the two fought, Aoki managed to pin him to the ground and have a conversation with the Investigator. Shizuya admitted he felt aimless, and Aoki promised to give him purpose if he guaranteed the latter's safety. Shizuya, who, as predicted had no real allegiance to humanity or morals and just wanted to feel wanted, agreed. Their "fight" then proceeded, and Shizuya, under Aoki's direction, gouged one of his Kakuhou out of his back.

The first Kakuhou he took from Aoki was turned into his harpoon-like quinque, and shortly thereafter when the primary Kakuhou had heald, it was extracted and placed within Shizuya. The concept was to leave the ghoul alive and regularly transfer RC cells from the original host so that the Kagune would acclimate and be controlled with much more ease and less risk; and all the while Shizuya was supposedly torturing Aoki for intel and compliance.

However, this was really anything but the case. Aoki allowed this all for the technical protection of Cochlea, specifically entrusting Shizuya with his Kagune. With the publicity disaster with Shiki Kijima shortly before Aoki was taken into custody, Shizuya managed to arrange for all monitoring of the room to be shut down while he was "interrogating" Aoki, so that the public would never get the chance to form empathy for a mistreated ghoul. In reality though, Shizuya merely uses this time to deepen his relationship with Aoki, and seek his direction in which ghouls must be killed, and which investigators might be lost along the way. Their path is one of mutually assured destruction.

Though before Shizuya had no particular love for anything, now, as long as he's killing under Aoki's request, he does so with a deeply unnerving bloodlust, but it is nonetheless a passion.

Aoki is a surprisingly capable emotional support, (he just willfully ignores his own problems), and tenderly caring for Shizuya's wellbeing has actually done wonders for the deeply hateful worldview he's surrounded himself ever since the death of his mother.

They're anchored by each other, and their time together in Aoki's cell is usually just embracing and consoling each other in a weirdly tender way as Shizuya tells Aoki about anyone he's killed for him, and Aoki advises Shizuya about using his Kagune or who to hunt.

Shizuya keeps Aoki safe, Aoki keeps Shizuya sane.

Also they kiss, I'm not really sure where to mention that, there's not an exact label on their relationship it's just desperate attachment and fondness, "dating" doesn't exactly cover it.

Other facts:

Their rings are a sign of promise to eachother, Shizuya usually hides his under a glove but he deeply enjoys wearing it visibly when he can.

Shizuya regularly delivers meat to Aoki, so that if needed Aoki can always break out. It's not foolproof but it's better than nothing. He also makes sure Aoki's administered RC suppressant dosage is way too low.

Aoki doesn't technically have a last name but between them he is Aoki Shizuya, Shizuya said something about "sharing his" and it stuck.

[sweetiebriar]

I’m really starting to question how RC’s algorithm determines romance points with Love Interests. I've noticed some strange inconsistencies, especially in the latest story, "And the Haze Will Take Us." In this story, the known LIs so far are Dragan, Ozar, and Tata.

For the record, I've been disappointed with the female LIs lately due to their lack of usefulness, so my main character is only pursuing male interests in this story. However, when I checked my profile's top matches, here's what I found: Ozar and Dragan are both at 100% right away, which might be normal, but I'm not sure yet. Not only that but Tata is completely missing from the list, even though friendship points should still show up, (like with Eve in "Chasing You 2", for example).

To make things more confusing, a random guy named "Volot" showed up with a 100% match too, even though my MC has never met him. Like, who are you, mate !? So, I thought for a moment and figured, 'maybe he was one of the priests with the skeletal cow mask'; but then, when did I romance him? Was it when I chose the diamond option to help MC breathe after the procession? That just doesn’t make sense.

So, yeah, RC , could you please explain how this wibbly wobbly, timey wimey stuff works again? Cause it really throws me off.

[sethan-obsession]

people in the dustloop space are looking into Guilty Gear X more after all these years since ML's getting some attention, and it's shitty in a much similar way but in more of a proto-XX to +R way rather than being toe to tip rotten a little like ML is

specifically though i'd like to share some things about GGX Anji

first off, i'll assume readers are somewhat familiar with GGACR Anji's gameplan and mechanics. if not, short description: solid but specialized normals, consistent okizeme, Autoguard/Guardpoint on specific normals that either blocks strikes that hit High and Mid (High GP) or strikes that hit Low (Low GP) for a specific, usually single-digit, burst of frames; and belligerent defense and a way of consistently "getting in" that is colloquially considered "toddler-accessible". (mainly through H Fuujin being an advancing, extremely long range 1f invuln pseudoreversal that goes into mixup OR combo followups on hit or block)

that and a little skim of the DL page should get you well prepped for this iteration of our boy! this character makes people explode off of grounded mids and doesn't have a full gameplan yet.

first off, your normal that matters: anji isn't proximityless in this game, and c.S is your button. when FDC'd (an exploit-mechanic exclusive to GGX, where you kara cancel a sweep which you gatling into from another normal into FD to functionally instantly cut said normal's remaining active and recovery frames to zero, leaving you neutral and usually Plus A Lot), this move infinites into itself by doing a couple FDC ones in a row, doing an FDC microdash, and repeating.

yes, this hurts your hands (especially considering the Sweep input in GGX was 2S+H, as the D button didn't exist yet). it also has jab pushback, so even if you can't hit the FDC, doing c.S > c.SxN will crank guard bars while beating mash, jump, and usually recovering fast enough for you to catch their backdash (often with another c.S).

5H has autoguard because, like... whatever, sure. the move property was new. live a little. this does make it a reversal that beats meaties, and notably if you're pressing 4H on wakeup, this is an extremely belligerent, obnoxious, and easy option from throw OS since it will stick people in autoguard-stop until it's active if they're hitting you out of throw range and result in you getting wakeup thrown if not. only really loses to spaced lows and projectiles. good ass guilty gear.

Dust, however, tragically lacks autoguard, leaving 5D autoguard > Kou to not be an option anymore, alas. you do have your 6P, though, which uh-

huh

so, that's your overhead animation, with... randomly generated hurtbox shift frames, and it has high guardpoint at an entirely arbitrary (and mostly entirely useless) window. i guess it's uh... harder to challenge, though you still need RC to do anything with it. quite a move.

aside from that, his 3K is on his 6K, and both the tyrant 6K and 6H have f1 High guardpoint, but this creates an unfortunate lack of any low autoguard in Anji's kit, which is a significant thing to have, and prevents Anji - lacking any Low Crush options in his kit, in this state - from dealing with lows much of anywhere, and especially makes him unable to compete with strong sweeps and low profile moves, which he already has trouble with even in +R, where he's a much more complete character.

but hey, that's just buttons. how's butterfly?

...alright! so, meterless Shitsu is FB shitsu. neat. this lets Anji set up meterless high/low unblockables assuming he gets oki instead of just Raohing them. so that's neat. it is still butterfly, though, so it's not good at zoning, contesting projectiles, or pressure outside of okizeme. so uh... guess he can keep it.

Fuujin's the same, mainly, but you can't go into followups on whiff, and the H version has significantly shorter invuln, which... is a pretty big hurt considering the lack of other tools Fuujin could've compensated for. if nothing else, Anji can still play favorable RPS when the opponent blocks Fuujin, so-

oh. hm, that move's mainly only good because you can airdash after it to pressure re-buy. otherwise that's kind of just a slow air backdash that resets you to full screen probably, uh...

hey why are YOU here

(of note, this move is usually used as an air combo knockdown ender. and it still exists in GGX anji's kit, largely untouched. InvisibleWater describes this move as "Probably one of the worst moves I've seen that isn't some 'Oops, we forgot about our own juggle rules' followup".

it's an overhead that's minus a billion on block, gives a bad knockdown on hit, is slow, and doesn't combo from or into anything unlike the great move that's usually the overhead followup out of fuujin as Rin. FB rin is also missing, notably crippling metered options and options in general as Anji.

but hey, Nagiha's here and... it can't be used as a surrogate combo ender in the place of other missing tools... and uh... oh, there's no H followup, so we also don't have Hop, the usual K followup. so, uh... hm. that's pretty bad. Kou is probably still good, though...

but that's most of what i wanted to say about GGX Anji! everyone that's been contributing to this game, linking old arcade tournament vods for it, and generally doing their best to explore an otherwise written off entry is super cool. hope you enjoyed reading.

Eddy Squad Character Profiles

Trans Clone Week Day 7: Free day!

I was planning on writing another fic or two about Eddy Squad for @clonefandomevents’ Trans Clone Week, but real life got in the way, so y’all will have to settle for some Background info on the group and profiles for all 4 members. I would’ve made sketches for each of them, but I didn’t have time for them so I’ve attached ~✨Vibes✨~ images

Eddy Squad is a Clone Commando group attached to the 187th (legion or battalion? I’ll never tell), and their armor is accented with the unit’s colors (purple or maroon? You decide). Like most Republic Commando groups they report directly to their General (Mace Windu) and Commander (originally Ponds, later Silver), and have served with them since the First Battle of Geonosis. Its name comes from eddies in water currents and magnetic fields, so their logo is a spiral to match (yes I know the koru is a unfurling fern frond)

Interestingly, all four are trans (I say this as if I didn’t cook up these characters myself). Some Kaminoan scientists believe that is because all four are from the same batch of embryos, but this seems unlikely since trans clone troopers exist in multiple batches and generations.

Lieutenant Spice (RC-3120)

Spice has been the leader of the Eddies ever since they were kids. She claims the name comes from the fact that she’s “intoxicating”; her wit, charm, and swagger are just as potent as her combat skills (top of her class). She lives by the phrase “so good they can’t ignore you”, and has managed to wrangle several promotions despite most of the GAR leadership disliking her. Despite her outward persona of “flippant disregard for authority”, she truly respects her superiors and will follow their orders (usually after she convinces them to change slightly).

In addition to her leadership skills, she specializes in hand-to-hand and melee combat. Her preferred weapon is an Electrostaff she took off of a MagnaGuard she defeated.

She’s the most Femme out of all the Eddies, and has a cartoon kiss painted on her breastplate. She is extremely bisexual. She was the second member to come out as trans.

Jack (RC-3119)

Jack is the Technology Specialist and Medic of Eddy Squad; patching code and patching bodies. Her name comes from being able to slice into a computer system from any Jack (Doylist: also Gentleman Jack). In contrast to Spice, Jack actually has deep problems with authority and fully buys into the hacker ethic.

She was the first Eddy to come out as trans, and hacked her way into building a hormonal implant. She’s also a Butch Lesbian. Her armor is detailed like a circuitboard, with a notch on a wire for each kill.

Terra (RC-3122)

Terra is the designated reconnaissance and explosives technician, tho her skills are a bit more general than those titles suggest. Her sense of direction is incredibly sharp, she can memorize maps shockingly fast, and once she’s scouted a route she can navigate others along it with little difficulty. She also has expertise in all things chemical and mechanical, can seemingly make a bomb out of anything, and can disassemble one in record time. She painted her armor like a bomb squad troopers and added orange accents as an homage. She and Jack often fight over who’s the better gadget-maker.

She’s panromantic and asexual, and enjoys nightclubs just as much as Spice. She also enjoys the time she gets with nature, and has only enmity for flamethrowers.

Convor (RC-3121)

Finally we have Convor, the last of Eddy Squad to come out (in the early days of the war). They actually use They/She pronouns, but still considers themselves to be sister to the other Eddies. They’re Bisexual, and leans towards other nonbinary people. They actually prefer being alone, and she doesn’t understand why Spice and Terra always hit up the clubs on surface leave. However, despite being extremely introverted, they’re incredibly socially adept and often has to defuse arguments among the other three.

Their skills are primarily sniping (marksmanship broadly) and flying. While Eddy Squad doesn’t have a dedicated shuttle like the Bad Batch, they do pilot shuttles for the group on solo missions. This is where the name and wing motif on her armor comes from.

Character’s Profile!

~Gray

Book: Sins of London

On his travels, he has witnessed a lot and that made him skeptical towards the world and people. He doesn't shun murder and other dirty deeds. Gray is flirty and is implied to have broken many hearts. MC once describes Gray as a selfish person, despite it, in season 1 finale, he willingly sacrifice himself for MC and Sherlock. In season 2, he's brought back by yet unknown scientist he's running from.

Interesting fact:

While traveling in India, Gray lost at cards to a wealthy Mahar (landowner) and jokingly said that he would marry his daughter. The next morning, it turned out that his comment had been taken seriously, and the young couple was already engaged. Gray fled and has since been unwelcome in the state of Maharashtra.

Age: 36

Height: 179cm

Zodiac sign: MULGU.LA - 𒀯𒄖𒆷 (Aquarius)

🧭 Backstory: Kurum comes from a small village on the northern bank of Idigina (Tigris river). He comes from a long line of hunters, and is a proficient hunter as well. When he was twenty nine, he married Ninta. When the war started, he was conscripted and assigned into the 3rd Lion Battalion. Kurum was noticed for exceptional talent for tracking which is why he became a member of the Infiltration squad. 

🧭 Interesting fact: After the war ends, Kurum plans to return home and live in peace.

Likes:

Card games

Ninta

Hunting

Competing with Rimush during their scout outings

Venison stew

Dislikes:

Stuck up people

Chasms

Goat cheese

Getting caught in a storm while hunting

Not being able to move for a prolonged time (such as when the army is moving to a different location and he has to sit in a carriage for days)

🧭 Behind the scenes: Similarly to Elulu, his name comes from the Sumerian King List (Nam-Lugal in Sumerian). Each member of the squad was given a function I considered useful for such a team, and so Kurum alongside Rimush became the scouts and spy leaders for the team.

c3x6 3xk the triple killer

Seeing the face

uwu secret admirer

alexis the little detective “narrowing down suspects”

Really really dark bruises on the ligature marks. It’s not just a general bruise of strangling, it’s like it was stationary. Linda Russo Beckett actually asked castle what his theory was?

911 has that effect on her RC: I believe that was my idea LP: Yeah but I only listen when it comes from her (could clip)

Wow they’re serious about this, so serious they’re showing a huge briefing onscreen. 

RM: He has a menial unimportant job KB: Still you, castle RC: Just for that I’m basing my next book off esposito KB: *looks at him in insult* (could clip)

Three murders one week. Posing them like this. Tyson & his MOs. Wearing disguises. Dysfunctional relationship with his mother. (later on in this ep & his arc: getting other people to do the thing & getting people to look like people)

Ooh horticulture! (Kb: ?? Ryan: Waters plants) (my man’s rly pretty) KR: Ex-wife. They were divorced last month after being married for four years. RC: So in a way, he did just get out of prison. [He’s sort of joking, but he’s serious regarding the timeline]

Bro some people have medical conditions, don’t make it like a jab on moral character! (Who is this security guard??)

Wow lots of facial hair there mr esposito (Who is the security guard????)

Kin Foster How did she get a liver temp already? Gas repair JE *can’t find the phone bc ppl kept moving it between takes*

RC: The pillows JE & me: What’s wrong with them? Found a penny XD

That was quiet. “Sir, a mr townsend wants to see you?” Ew reporters They’d better hold to that. Let Him Know. My older bro thought that this guy might be the killer

KB: From four years ago. I took a look at calls made to the Triple Killer tip line and this one stood out for me. It’s from May 21st, 2006, which was a week after the sixth murder. A woman called and left a message, but she was too afraid to leave her name. But she did mention that she lived at 24th and 10th. (He wasn’t carrying the right tools? 3xk has improved since then. I mean yeah eight years will do that)

u got the phone records from 4 years ago? really??? (except linda russo did not see HIS face)

(why no pic of the tat on the murderboard? also does he fit the profile, bad mom menial job? Oh his mom died when he was 4. Gates was convicted of the bottle break tho)

Sociopath??? really? You think antisocial personality disorder makes this guy a consistent killer? 

Who was the individual walking by castle’s house tho? (nobody important, nvm)

Oh you know, someone died, someone else did it. (don’t want to clip) some … pervert watching you from afar with high powered binoculars.

I always love the parallels. Rick just wants to protect his daughter & when we have a case like this he’s sure to freak a bit.

“I’d better check they’re actually locked.” Love castle sm. (apparently that was an ad-lib. could clip ig)

Another point for the Ryan ADHD headcanon. I have a system, you’re messing up my system, it might not work for you but it does for me. I’d record this bickering to post but I don’t feel like it. Btw, I think this was also adlibbed (ok so I guess I already wanted to clip this) (I’ll clip both together actually)

Robert Duncan? Is that their name? Interesting choice here.  OH WAIT IT WAS HOLD MUSIC (btw, the detective to beckett’s right is the half asian looking guy, I can’t see what his nameplate reads tho)

Jelly Tyson (the cameras watching castle correct her writing lol)

Love handwriting differences. Castle <3

(“my girl” he says) Wow acab

Is pruno booze? I like how he doesn’t actually remember the exact name, he just knows it’s hog something. (Or so he claims.) That is realistic I think. 

Nice jacket, but that shirt. Idk whether it’s good or bad. Probs good for undercover recon.  Nice music Aww helping him into his vest (clip that) (suddenly has their guns in their hands even tho they were literally doing up the velcro a heartbeat ago) Well that’s a lot of people. (Monty’s gun-- that’s the one he has in future episodes. It’s an old-style gun, not one of the ones with the fancy magazines) XD Castle (Clipping this too) Cocky man. He’s also for sure the guy in the teaser Captions were wrong there. esposito said that, not monty

I like the literary flair but I don’t think this is the time.

Not my type HE’S SOO GROSS OUH i LOVE IT

Esposito <3.  Marcus touching the stuff He’s good at this. From the perspective of a citizen I respect him. I respect him a lot. From a just perspective I totally want him done & gone. Good for him tbh. Rick wearing jeans & that colour shirt, so nice btw.  How is esposito taller than monty here?

Seven not eight? He killed two women at this time & he also killed a fellow six four years ago. 

(Nothing in his apartment ok, but why? We know he (you know who is you know whom) but we also know he DID (do you know what on behalf of you know whom)) he already IS the focus bro

he really is so calm

& they just happen to have a traffic cam there? Tbh the changing clothes is easy to do. Yeah acab, they think they have the one who did it so they ignore evidence to convict them. 

MG: you all better keep your loved ones close Me, having seen the end of the episode: OH MG: Sure hope you catch him Me, having seen him again in s7: I SEE You can say “S.O.B.” & not actually swear

pimply teenagers XD (not clipping) OH SUS NO NOPE NO WAY.  Oh I love Martha. What a great gal. Tell her you’re afraid someone thought your strawberry-blonde daughter is being killed tonight? Lmao martha I love her sm (not clipping tho) MR: Richard, darling, she’s right. You are being utterly irrational. It’s like when I was doing Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? and I thought my understudy was trying to poison me. RC: Oh yeah, the daily blood tests I paid for. Wait, she did poison you. The Swiss chocolate she gave you was a laxative. MR: Ahh… it added a certain urgency to my performance. But, the point is, you indulged my paranoia. So therefore, I am going to be in the park, five o’clock, at a discreet distance to make sure that Alexis’ secret admirer is not an axe murderer. Oh & I love her for taking care of alexis

Who is Donna Gallagher though? She is NOT tyson’s gal.  Gates was the one arrested for breaking the bottle, it is in his record.  tyson was beat up in the prison yard this morning, alexis has a note telling her to visit someone at 5pm today, martha is trailing her, it looked like daytime outside the apartment, then beckett calls, then they cut to talking to tyson, then it is DARK & they are at a random motel

Lmao “My name is detective ryan, I’m your new best friend” (not clipping)

Oh no he already has donna doesn’t he?

(Why would 3xk make it so he has an alibi? Wait spoilers within this paragraph I figured it out: so tyson needed to get out of jail & the only way they could get him out is to prevent gates from getting arrested until tyson was out, then once tyson was out he used his magical money to pay for paul’s surgery, & only then can he confess to the 3xk murders. I was thinking “why give him an alibi & tell ppl that 3xk used partners? esp if u want him convicted” but even as writing that I realized it’s good bc then his brother gets involved & he has a REASON to confess & it is not sus, it would be sus for him to just spontaneously decide to confess) (end spoilers, except that this entire liveblog is spoilers)

(Never used the same partner twice, except for Her)

Big bro called it! Body double! (I genuinely thought that he was just one step lower on the stairs to the building) They both have the same tattoo? (but we thought 3xk told the perv paul mccardle to back off...?)

Oh when did Ryan get here? (Oh lol they were in a foster home together, I forgot. I thought they were bio brothers but then they had different last names. they looked similar enough that I thought they were related) I swear Jerry is the real 3xk (going back to read my liveblog like...)

Good gracious, esposito breaking in alone! (could clip... won’t) I was right, he already has Donna. You can probs get him on attempted murder rather than assault & tax evasion here. MG: I’ll try not to disappoint you.

He looks like a mouse

Castle just stammering asking if he can follow Ryan XD KB: Just don’t get in his way (there was a deleted line: “I’m driving” bc esposito always makes ryan take shotgun. then in 4x14 blue btf ryan lets castle drive lol)

WOW US HEALTHCARE SYSTEM (apparently the breath tube was added in post) Man also doesn’t have the hair nor tattoo to make him look similar enough. Gates sent him Get Well flowers! That’s genuinely something so big to me. 

Girl you might want to leave them to talk to Paul anyways

But the thing is do you have enough evidence to convict him of accessory to murder? Only if paul gets immunity? Paul’s going to be the real killer then (also YES get that in writing, cops can lie to you)

Oh they remembered the dad!

Definitely lying. Plus he only said Linda Russo, Sara Townsend, & five other women. It was six the first time. He killed two after prison. He’s missing a Kim Foster.

(at abt 35:30) RC, reading my mind: I don’t understand the operation. KR: No big deal, my dad had one. RC: It is a big deal if u r broke! (how did his family afford that? Raising ryan & two or three sisters, paying for piano lessons apparently, plus a $100k heart surgery at some point? Ouch. Maybe he had dual citizenship tho & got healthcare in ireland, like he’s REALLY irish not just “my family from the 1800s” irish) Ryan’s walk <3 That flat “I guess”

“You accumulate a lot of stuff even in the slammer,” esp if gates left all his stuff to you, WAIT GATES LEFT ALL “HIS” STUFF TO TYSON

KR: You were right, he did try to go after Donna KR: But she’s ok. JG: & gates? KR: He confessed, it’s all over. RC: Aren’t you going to ask? Me: Bro you literally said donna was fine & that the man going after her is held! (3xk really improved his methods as the series progressed tbh, he improved his performance of them)

Why would Castle ask “aren’t you going to ask what happened?” in that loud rude tone “to your girlfriend >:( Donna” & only THEN say “unless... *realization strikes* as if he didn’t have it clicking into place yet He’s removing the evidence he was ever where? Where bro? What evidence?

RC: He’s the real 3xk! But then why did he send two other people to kill for him, huh? This guy couldn’t have killed them himself, we saw that. We know that. He was in prison during the first murder, in fact both. & then again Gates was the one who attempted on donna’s life. (Me: getting my clips after having seen all the 3xk episodes into s7)

Oof Poor Ryan. (also clipping the spin scene & ryan whack scene)

(abt 36:45 for the precinct flash-to; yeah no this is just too long to clip, I’ll get smaller bits)

RM: Maybe [Ryan] & Castle went out for a cold one. That’s what I’m doing on a day like today. Care to join me? KB: Yeah! Yeah I’d love to. RM: Let’s hit it. Ok listen I know it is not super big but this little scene adds so much to the story. Social. People. The language each individual uses. Fellowship. (could clip, idk) They honestly appreciate each other. He is her second father, he is her friend. 

Awwww it looks like wire. If it was duck tape I’d be smiling because Rick has escaped from duck tape before. Darn it.

Jerry is kind of cool & smart in an evil way. Takes ryan’s gun & phone, checks the last calls, even steals his badge. If it wasn’t so tragic I’m sure Ryan would get teased for that.  (Me, having seen 4x4 kick the ballistics & the s6+7 3xk eps)

Storyteller rick! Making it out! (me: has watched all the way up to s7) Ooh rick’s childhood trauma coming back again! Just like the vampire episode! That’s his mom’s PFP on his phone? That’s so Martha. Wait no it says “home” & “mobile” so is it Mom on her Mobile or is it Home on the Landline? (I don’t feel the need to clip this...) (too bad, I did, it was actually REALLY really good)

So sweet that the mom calls him & so sweet that the secret admirer was ashley. Cutest thing ever.  MR: Richard? RC: I love you. B’y this is why I have a codephrase with ma family so that whenever I’m in a hostage situation I can say smth completely normal that my captor won’t see as a red flag but my family will KNOW it means something. & bud if you hang up the phone for me without letting me say goodbye everyone will know I’m in danger. I always try to say bye.

Bro we can only hear the sirens once we see them? If we’re in a stationary place & they are travelling at that speed we would be able to hear them.  Also, why did they come here? I thought they were getting drinks?

RC: It’s clear, he’s gone. I’m fine, Ryan needs an ambulance. KR, muffled from his face being in the carpet: No I don’t. Girl if you got hit hard enough to knock out, you need to go to urgent care or a medi-centre or even the ER. You have a concussion. Not ever concussion sends you unconscious but every ko means you’ve been concussed. JE: *kneels down beside Ryan immediately* (btw they cut a line: jerry tyson? more like mike tyson) (I think I’ll clip this)

Oh she came here bc she was sus that they didn’t come back from talking to Jerry. & as she says, “Your mom called. She said you told her you loved her & figured something must be terribly wrong.” RC: I figured she might. Good girl.

Poor ryan, getting lights shone in his eyes bc he probably has a concussion. At least Esposito & Montgomery are there with him. Lmao he says “No I don’t” & they force him into the ambulance anyway. (I’ve taken a pic of this, I don’t need to clip it. I do need a fic of it tho.)

She gave him coffee He let castle live but he let ryan live too.

Comfort <3

Is this a Mycroft moment? In like the fourth episode of Murdoch Mysteries, they got the wrong guy & let Harcourt/Mycroft go. He ran away into the night & was never seen again in 16 seasons. I kind of hope we do see him again, just for the giggles & shock factor. Whether he is an unstable fellow or turned himself around. The 3xK is gone & I have a feeling we will never see him again. We could tho, another couple years later? A couple seasons from now? I think it would be great. Maybe also a dread pirate roberts thing, since Jerry didn’t actually kill any of the last three victims personally. (Me: looking back on this liveblog after I’ve seen 3x6, 4x4, 5x5, 6x9, & 7x14+15)

Well that was fun. Good episode. I like the detail with ryan esposito montgomery & the paramedics all in the background during the caskett scene

I can totally believe that I basically rewatched 3x6 3xk & reliveblogged lol
