Jfc I am BUZZING what a fucking episode. The first part of this is mostly screaming tbh

I love happy juno but also grumpy juno is my favourite welcome back

I love how firm peter is with him in stopping him from spiralling? It's good

Rita coming into her own!! Learning lessons!! Growing up!! Yes!!!

SO MUCH INFO THOUGH. Dark matters wants the crime family and they want them alive and they don't know anything about two of them but!! Which two!!

You'd presume nureyev is one but..... who knows ahh

This is gonna be mostly screaming I have no time for coherent thought rn

Juno being protective over rita godd

Juno comforting rita while she's panicking ;;

OH HEY FUCK THE NAME? I MEAN LIKE IT WAS ALWAYS A POSSIBILITY BUT RITAAAA

Me thinking no surely he wouldn't have just abandoned them and breathing a sigh of relief when he hadn't only for my boy to DO THIS?? ET TU PETER??

PETER

NUREYEV

DESERVES

BULLIED

I'm not serious but my guy had BETTER have a good reason for this. I would hope it's a long con of some kind or SOMETHING but PETER

Anyway if these people know his name idk if this is either 1. Blackmail or 2. Maybe he didn't get away from brahma all by himself after new kinshasa after all. Maybe he had help and it's finally come back to bite him in the ass. Who knows but I'm fucking 👀 PETER.

MISTER WHO

Also. Robot kisses 🥺

ALSO. Juno just. Picking him up and carrying him out of the room fhshdhdgs

MAMA BUDDY SO ANGRY THOUGH. I thought this would be the case but ooof

LESBIAN WEDDING TIME THOUGHHH Buddy and vespa inventing romance once AGAIN

I mean I'm sad they're retiring (although depending on what nureyev is doing here this "last job" could be UHHHHH DERAILED) but!! Yes!! Married!!

Knife girlfriend will finally be..... knife WIFE

Juno sniffling in the corner like ME TOO BITCH THE FUCK. Secretly a sap as usual though mr steel I love you

I can't remember other things I just. So much happened. I'm gonna need to listen again at least a few times here

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Oh FUCK also rita!! "When someone tells you what they want you to call them that's what you call them"!! Penumbra said trans rights once again thank you kabert and also ms jones. Bless

Not a second listen yet but more Thots:

Rly good episode...... and the robot kisses were very cute...... but I had this thought in pt. 1 and again this episode that I'm kinda bummed out that we've kinda just.... skipped over all the relationship development for juno & peter. Like on the one hand it's kind of unavoidable to miss stuff given the series format this time around but on the other it feels like 2 seasons of build up for something that.... just happened offscreen :/ Idk I was hoping for a first kiss back together or Something

On the one hand while it seems like nureyev is being a Snake™ I'm gonna hold back on actually saying he's gonna betray the crew bc he's been so consistently set up as the villain, going back to s1 when juno refused to trust him all the way through to shadows of the ship, and he's never actually proven himself untrustworthy a single time through that? Like, murderous mask has been the only time he's actually fucked anyone over for his own gain, and he went back on that one pretty quick

Plus the fact that he's only claiming to deliver the four items they need, not the curemother itself - it could be that he's planning to wait until after they've stolen the curemother when they no longer have a use for them, or at least I'd like to think so peter I'm fucking Watching You

Another thought: you know how else you might describe a debt? Something you owe to someone because, maybe, they have something of yours? A fucking ransommmmm

Also, why! Did! That! Bot! Not! Self! Destruct! Or at least not straight away. It's almost like someone wanted them to get away in the nick of time. There's a part of me that's wondering if the fact that dark matters is under mysterious new management and the fact that nureyev has made himself what seems like a very powerful enemy are linked, but we'll see. Either way I think someone definitely facilitated their escape, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was whoever is holding peter's debt, using the crew as a tool to get their hands on the four items they want and keeping nureyev as a source on their progress

Looking forward.... other people have said this as well, but I don't think nureyev is ever going to be cast as a villain here. At the very worst, he'll do something well-intentioned but kind of stupid, and it's gonna blow up in his face. Like, it's gonna hurt, but I think he'll come out of the other side better for whatever happens. Currently, my thoughts are on whether or not we'll see a repeat of new kinshasa - a high-stakes choice between someone dear to him, and the choice he feels he has to make, whether that's other people's lives again or something else. Idk, maybe not, I'm just thinking about the theming of the series with the past always coming back to haunt them, the fact that he's been said to be at a crossroads back in man in glass, and the part in tools of rust where the ruby gives jet the opportunity to make the same mistake he did fifteen years ago, and he chooses differently. Tbh as usual I'm just excited to see how things play out however that is

ACTUAL second listen this time:

Rita redacted I love you so much x3 combo. I missed this earlier but it needs to be said

Rita says she found nureyev's name by hacking into buddy's notes on him and comparing them to the outer rim criminal records which leads me to ask the question how much does buddy know? Why would rita be checking outer rim records unless something in buddy's notes pointed her in that direction? I've had my suspicions that she knows more than she's saying for a while but 👀

Nureyev sounds so nervous/scared too...... :(

I had this thought on the first listen but didn't write it down: nureyev is so goddamn smart, like so smart, I don't think he gets enough credit for that. Also him saying "one problem at a time, like [buddy] would say" was - oof. Considering how much time he spends referencing mag's advice in man in glass, even if he's bitter about it, I think that reference is very telling on how he thinks about her

Love the way he skirts around saying they have to move sneakily dhsgjf. Also "only twice" I do love him

Juno joking about his track record on not dying.... oh he's come a long way though

The way that nureyev talks to rita throughout them moving around - he's kind of a natural leader (which, ouch), but also it's clear that he has absolute confidence in her, he doesn't ever doubt for a second that she wouldn't be able to do something. It's obviously a little unempathetic when she's so shaken and doubting herself but also he clearly trusts her almost as much as if not as much as juno, and I do love to hear it

Detective falco? 👀

Juno looking on the bright side! Not blaming himself! Saying maybe it's gonna be okay and believing in her! I cry!

Except for when nureyev is in danger though ): I love that this story never shows recovery in a linear way, that juno is still inclined to beat himself up even if he is better than he used to be. He's growing but it's always gonna be a work in progress!

The fact that dark matters seems to be moving entirely towards remote operation now? Like it makes sense tactically, there's no risk of expending agents in a fight, I'm interested if the writers are gonna dig into that considering the real-world state of drone use in the military and law enforcement

Calling their heist marks "radicals", it seems like dark matters is trying to keep track of or maybe capture rogue (or radical) elements out in the universe - things like the knife and the key, which is probably why they were after m'tendere, they themselves being a radical element. I wonder if this is what brought the crew to their attention in the first place; it's definitely why they want to capture them alive at least, they want information out of them on why they're collecting the same marks

They specifically say two radicals though, and potentially a third, depending on whether the book is counted as the third that might mean they don't know about the map at all, maybe

I mentioned this another time but I'm wondering Again if dark matters was behind the mysterious disappearance of all the theia soul chips except for juno's, esp with what rita said about the interface for the bots being like theia tech - experimental tech like that would deffo be considered a radical element and they definitely could have used it as a basis for these new bots

Peter........ he's in a ROBOT stop being HORNY

"Galaxy-class criminals" huh.

Someone else pointed this out elsewhere idr who but buddy's line that sometimes helping people means trusting them to help themselves despite your concerns, when paired with what's going on with nureyev is.... interesting

WOW buddy is mad though

I'm REALLY wondering how much she knows about what's going on tbh, especially seeing as her pov is probably up next. Aaaaa I'm gonna be yelling for the next however many weeksss

Jet sounds so happy about the ruby being fixed aw

Vespa so nervous about making her announcement AW

Buddy sounds so HAPPY AW

Peter starts laughing right at the end when vespa starts threatening juno which,, oh boy ): I rly hope everything turns out okay ;;

Rita saying that sometimes trying to help someone in pain is being selfish because you just don't want to look at the hurt is a really interesting thing to come from her considering her long-standing relationship with juno, huh

“Before the year is out” is a very vague timeframe, once again thinking that nureyev’s plan may well be to only hand the items over once the heist is done

Anyway once again AAAAA

@that-anxious-blonde tagged me to answer all these questions, which took forever but was also a lot of fun :)

1. Do you prefer writing with a black pen or a blue pen? black

2. Would you prefer to live in the country or in the city? I grew up in the country, but I now live in the city in an apartment. I like it better personally.

3. If you could learn a new skill, what would it be? I started guitar lessons when I was younger, but I only know one song. I wish I could just become familiar enough to play it.

4. Do you drink your tea/coffee with sugar? I only drink iced tea and sometimes I make it with sugar.

5. What was your favourite book as a child? I loved the Nancy Drew series and The Boxcar Children.

6. Do you prefer baths or showers? showers

7. If you could be a mythical creature, which one would you be? I would like to be a mermaid. I love being in water and the ability to breathe underwater would be awesome.

8. Paper or electronic books? both - I love paper books. I like to put them on my shelf and feel them. However, there are times when the quickest way to access a book is purchasing it on an ebook.

9. What is your favourite item of clothing? t-shirts - I especially love graphic tees.

10. Do you like your name? Would you like to change it? I'm used to Candice now. I don't know anything I'd like to change it to.

11. Who is a mentor to you? I would say it more like a role model. That was my grandmother before she passed away. We worked together for several years, and she taught me a lot. I did most of my personal growth under her.

12. Would you like to be famous? If so, what for? I would love to be a best selling author tbh.

13. Are you a restless sleeper? For sure. I literally toss and turn ALL NIGHT. I wake up wrapped in my comforter with the sheet hanging off the bed.

14. Do you consider yourself to be a romantic person? I love the idea of romance, reading romantic books, watching romantic movies, and shipping. However, for myself, I'm not overly romantic. I don't really have feelings for anyone right now. I don't particularly like to date. Idk how to explain it.

15. Which element best represents you? Definitely the water element. Not just because I like being in water, but it is also the element associated with my zodiac. I'm pretty easygoing, intuitive, private and creative.

16. Who do you want to be closer to? There are some people in my past that I wish I was still close to but distance and time have made that hard.

17. Do you miss someone at the moment? Due to coronavirus I am working from home, and I miss my coworkers. They are like family.

18. Tell us about an early childhood memory. When I was probably 4 or 5, I got to ride on an elephant.

19. What is the strangest thing you have eaten? I had calamari once and then never again.

20. What are you most thankful for? My family. My mom and my sister are my one constant in life.

21. Do you like spicy food? Not really because I have a very sensitive stomach.

22. Have you ever met someone famous? Rick Riordan at a book reading.

23. Do you keep a diary or journal? I hadn't since I was a kid, but I started again during the pandemic. I wanted to remember everything that I was feeling and thinking as well as what was going on in the world.

25. What is your star sign? scorpio

26. Do you like your cereal crunchy or soggy? crunchy

27. What would you want your legacy to be? That I helped as many people as I could while on Earth.

28. Do you like reading? What was the last book you read? I love reading. It's my favorite thing to do. The book I finished a few hours ago was Dirty Charmer by Emma Chase.

29. How do you show someone you love them? Since I have a degree in psychology people trust me to listen and help them when they need it, so I just try to be there for them. I also like to craft and bake for people. I take care of others more than I do myself.

30. Do you like ice in your drinks? yes

31. What are you afraid of? Oof, I'm afraid of the dark, snakes, spiders, roaches, and rats. But mostly I'm just afraid of being afraid.

32. What is your favourite scent? I love watermelon lemonade and lavender.

33. Do you address older people by their name or surname? First name usually, but sometimes nicknames are last names so then I would use that.

34. If money was not a factor, how would you live your life? I would definitely go traveling. There are so many places I would love to go.

35. Do you prefer swimming in pools or the ocean? The pool. There aren't usually creatures in the pool then can sting and/or bite me. Let's just say I've had encounters with sharks and jellyfish.

36. What would you do if you found $50 on the ground? I would see if someone dropped it. If no one claims it, I'll keep it in my purse until I see someone in need of it.

37. Have you ever seen a shooting star? Did you make a wish? No, I don't think so.

38. What is one thing you would want to teach your children? How to be kind. How to treat other people with respect and acceptance.

40. What can you hear right now? The sound of my fan running.

41. Where do you feel the safest? In my apartment with my family.

42. What is one thing you want to overcome/conquer? I want to overcome my anxiety and depression which hold me back from reaching for new things and interacting with other people.

43. If you could travel back to any era, what would it be? 19th Century England. When Jane Austen was writing.

44. What is your most used emoji? 💜

45. Describe yourself using one word. empathetic

46. What do you regret the most? I regret waiting so long to sever ties with my father. The longer I waited the more damage he did. I was concerned about hurting him even though he clearly didn't have those concerns about me.

47. Last movie you saw? Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

48. Last tv show you watched? New Girl

49. Invent a word and its meaning. That's going to take more mental energy than I have right now. Sorry to disappoint.

I am tagging @cantfightfatetoo @marthaskane @the-nerd-that-was-promised but only if you want to. It is time consuming.
