OK I'm caught up and what if I made a Kayne or Noel journal
let him be among friiiiends
OK BUT IM BAD AT NAMES and I'll have to relisten over the weekend to all his appearances
ALSO YOU GAVE ME A JOURNAL NAME THE OTHER DAY. YOU'RE GOOD.
Also gfl for him to survive wherever he's ended up
The hardest part of rp stg
i'm still not okay you guys
someone said a thing about something unrelated and suddenly i cannot again
but it was just. that close you know
well at least now you have an actual named canon point for collins when THAT happens
I'M GONNA NEED TO BRUSH UP A LOT
but I will give it a shot
oh man I love miss fishers but yes, that is a good choice
same! why the thought came to me like 'oo, he could work'
yes! plus closer to time period??
like what a fucking TRAGIC end
the literal defining trait for him being fucking STOLEN

oops, wrong one
just THAT ONE in response because. directly appropriate
i had a similar line of thought, namely in that like
i loved how he came back as an ally for the end there? and it was consistent characterisation!
arthur won, and the butcher respects a good play
so now he's got nothing on arthur, bc he's been arrested and has no motive to hurt him bc like fuck is larson gonna bail him out
and then Arthur offered him this lovely opportunity and he was happy about it!
(larson did try tbf. but also. he might have tried to silence him in other ways eventually. and butcher has no loyalty beyond his one term jobs.)
collins' loyalty is entirely to himself and frankly i respect that. he's a fantastic foil to arthur in so many ways and that's one of the really strong parallels
fuck, why don't I have a "^this!" emote.
btw, I listened to it several times and I just THEY PAT EACH OTHER BEFORE THEY PART ON GOOD TERMS. like. almost friendly. ugh
"you finally get me" and me just uglycrying in the background
i think arthur would have a lot of a harder time hating the butcher when he's settled down in jail with no motive to kill him
like it's not personal for either of them
arthur can just compartmentalise it and move on with his life
Just seeing things from an objective point of view.
Useful and practical, and maybe a little bit of a fault
fault is not the word i want to use
"it's been a clean game, boyo"
"til we meet again."
"count on it."
AND HIS FAREWELL.
"And may you be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows you're dead!"
he can view a situation as it is right in front of him, completely stripped of emotional context, and therefore putting himself entirely at fault 8D
laughing in the crying sort of way.
Can we just time travel and save everyone please? /shot
oh hey, there's that emote. XD
this is why arthur and john are Gently AU'd in their upcoming canon update
just to make a few little things kinder for them
considering how much time they've spent here and grown so much... makes sense.
ugh i left it on and Yellow's "why? what did you have to offer? why did he care so much about you?" ;a;
....FULL DISCLOSURE, that being said, arthur still doesn't know shit about the butcher, so when he updates arthur is still going to be assuming he's a raging dickhead trying to kill him and will be Less Than Reasonable about being approached with Future News, hahaha
they're both coming from 23
...John will be largely the same, although a little, uh... tweaky considering what he's coming FROM
and no immediate situation to help distract from it
yeah arthur being on a murderous rampage really did a number in helping john learn how to compartmentalise that shit, huh
when collins and yellow update, we're debating on which way to go. mostly if at the same time or collins first for more Angst amongst everyone version.
yellow is getting paired with my boy Hunter, which is going to be. phenomenal
bc he'll get the file WELL BEFORE anyone updates
Since it's going to be A While it will probably depend on what's happening in tlv at the tme
Yedwin and Hunter are really cute.
they're so fucking cute, they're the best and i love them
Hunter: "he's trying really hard, he's very new to being a Person and that's hard but he's got the spirit!
Hunter: /gets the file
Hunter:
Hunter: "fuck"
hmm. collins will approach arthur and jd first, but if hunter wants to talk to him /waves hand. that's a long time in coming, but you know!
we'll see how it all goes.
i'm going to have to listen REALLY CLOSE to what happens when once I update. make sure i get info correct haha.
also as i was telling danii, i'm debating on collins's music when he gets updated
because. it was taken from him. and.
if he's Proper Dead now after the update. might as well go hard.
John probably knows what the music is because he possessed Collins in the library
so he can definitely replace it
I would definitely go with that.
John wouldn't ask for anything for it
I was so all for John hearing his music.
Before then, you bet i'm already planning on a tantrum happening... by which i mean, the Butcher going on a murderous rampage trying to get his music jumpstarted. :'D
i really wish this wasn't a skip month you guys sob
i feel genuinely bad for the butcher but also what a fantastic fuckery
yes thank you. his poor musical soul. ;a;
in tlv less bad. going to get that second chance.
in canon, i'm still sobbing every couple of hours, ngl, over that fucking twat taking his music away in the end
at least let him die with it. fucker!
Kayne is THE biggest fucker
IMO as much as kayne is entertaining as hell i do not think he is redeemable as per the Barge
and to think i liked him fjdklsf
ah, ah. yeah, i could see that. he's... he's just chaos.
i still love him, i think he's a phenomenally interesting character who perfectly fills his role in the story. i just hate him as a person : D
ahahaha. FAIR. I, uh, I did call him my third favorite when I DMed Harlan the other day, ngl.
I said Noel stole second from him. XD
And in case anyone is wondering, I was requesting my Shamer Letter.
...It's the Butcher. I requested the Butcher, ofc. Hands down, never in doubt, not even for a second, since I joined in Oct that decision did not waver.
Harlan just be like "here, have a thing super early"
Aaaand with that one heck of a dropoff, I'm going to bed.
Except one last thing because my brain just thought of poor Arthur trying to understand old English.
I listened to the S4 Q&A last night and gdit still have Butcher feels again.
It just...hurts.
Gdit I was thinking about rp things this morning and they went from happy flood things to possible after update things and... thinking about Part 40 again.
But what if Butcher used the Enclosure to face his (very new) fears and-
