#but im glad we have jace for another 2 years

[mrs-starkgaryen]

Let's talk about last night's episode of HOTD-

Oh

[im-out-of-it]

I just have some thoughts since I’ve watched the first three episodes now. some things I’m glad the show did and also the things that irritated the fuck out of me so let’s go 👏🏼

1. aging the characters up. I think this is smart to do and there’s more you can do with the rest of them if they’re in their early twenties instead of being teenagers. sorry not sorry but I’m not interested in seeing teenagers being chased by grown adults

2. Clary is still beyond annoying. I know she’s traumatized by losing her mom and not understanding this new world but literally coming in “I don’t care about the clave, about your rules, I just want to find my mom.” yeah ok we get that but there are still rules that need to be followed. you’re out here almost getting people killed and it’s all in the name of your mom. and I’m not saying the clave is trustworthy because they’re massive dicks but you can’t go around running and doing whatever you want lmao

3. please give Alec a raise or a year vacation. the amount of shit he deals with having to be jaces parabatai is too much. honestly, Alec deserves better. Jace takes advantage of Alec and I would have loved to see Alec have another parabatai, one that cares for him. I know you can only have one BUT CUT THE FUCKING CORD PLEASE

4. Magnus is fucking perfection

5. Izzy is perfection too 🔥 I do not blame Simon losing his tongue over her. my bisexual mind was like OOOOO ALEC NO MAGNUS NO IZZY NO RAPHAEL NO MAIA!!!!!!! NO ALL OF THEM

6. Clary and Jace are very cringe and I’m not sure if that’s on the acting or the writing but it makes it hard to believe they’re “in love.” I felt more connection with Alec and Magnus meeting for a second than I did with jace and clary in three episodes. even Alec and jace have a bit more chemistry than he does with clary. and that is something I DO NOT ship

Jace: I would die for you

Clary: but jace we just met

Jace: I don’t care if I throw all my friends and family away clary. we’re destined to be together

7. superb acting from Matthew Daddario. he’s absolutely wonderful and he really captured Alec’s angst in my opinion. you can see why he’s on guard not only because he likes jace (ew my man Alec WHY) and because he’s worried about the safety of his people. I feel like Matt captures the emotion without saying a thing so well. as does Harry. I think they’re both great at this

8. “This would be bad for clary.”- (talking about the cup and valentine) Simon “it would be bad for all of us”-Izzy. of course in Simon and clary world, everything is all about clary. I get simon is worried about his bff but this affects EVERYONE

9. if Simon was my bff and someone as jace talked to my friend that way, ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOT. she doesn’t really say much, she’s all like “we’re a package deal.” honestly clary and jace belong together because they both take advantage of their friends. they’re both so self centered so let them run away as far as possible together

10. Alec is big sad now but you will have better, just you wait. also want to add, I enjoy season one for the build up Alec and Magnus but man do I hate Alec pinning after jace 🤢 but if there isn’t any incest, it’s not a proper CC story

11. Im just here for the Malec content. stuff that show did well: Alec and Izzy’s sibling relationship. I love these two so much. Clary actually being nice to izzy and being her friend, and not being mean to her cause she’s jealous. Magnus’s whole attire. I love this bi king so much. I love magnus, I love his sass, his makeup, his clothes. I LOVE HIM. I wish they would’ve changed his hair and makeup more in the last two seasons. kinda feel like they thought oh he has mascara on, that’s good enough. that pink hair is truly one of my favorite Magnus looks.

12. last thing to add that I like what the show did. I love that Alec actually knows how to fight. it never made sense in the books that he’s never killed a demon, especially since he’s a Lightwood. never made sense to me. I’m glad they allowed in the show for Alec to actually be able to fight 🏹

that is all for now until I watch actually one of the best episodes of season one. Magnus and Alec meeting 🥰

Who Is This??/Part 1/ Noah Centineo

Your friend Jace tries to play match maker with a number switch up..

WARNING: language, Sexual things?

—————————————————————

*PING!*

Groaning you roll over to see who in the hell was texting you in the middle of the night. The glaring bright screen of your phone blinding you in the face. An unknown number with a simple message, “Hi.”

Who in the hell? Groaning, I swear if Jace is trying to play match maker again I’m going to murder him.

“Who is this?” You reply. You lock your screen back and lay your head back down on your pillow. No sooner than you closed your eyes another *PING* came from your phone.

“Noah? I seen you on set today and asked one of your friends for your number?”

Set? What the hell. Who is Noah?!? You think of what to say for a second and reply. “Noah? I don’t know a Noah? And what set are you even talking about? Did Jace put you up to this? Because I swear to god that boy does not know when his match making skills are not wanted!”

With scrunched brows you began biting the corner of your nails, a bad habit your mother always fussed at you for, you await his reply. You scroll through your phone until you find Jave contact.

“Did you give some guy my number again? Who is Noah? Jace I swear to god I’m going to kill you!”

You get aggitsted and toss your phone beside you when he doesn’t reply. Flopping backward you then remember that it’s 3 o’clock in the morning so he’s probably sleeping like you had been before your phone woke you up.

Another ping from your phone had you picking it up with inhumane speed. It’s from Noah..

“Well I do believe you now know a Noah, so there’s that. I also believe that there may have been a mix up with your number 😂😂 I’m so sorry. I’m going to go ahead and bet that this isn’t Janelle? And as far as a Jace goes is it possible it’s the Jace that helps out with our hair and make up? He must’ve given me your number instead of Janelle’s.”

Jace has been helping out on movie sets since early last year and had recently landed a job back in February assisting on the set of a new film. He had dreamed of being a professional hair and makeup artist since we were little.

“Nope, not Janelle. My name is (Y/N). And yep that sounds like my Jace.”

“Oh... your Jace is it.. I’m sorry I thought he was... ya know what NVM.”

“OH HE DEFINITELY IS. I didn’t mean my as in Mine but he has been my best friend since we were kids.”

“That would be why he gave me the funny grin when he slipped me your number instead of Janelle’s I’m guessing😂.”

That little shit, you should’ve known he would find someone to try to play match maker with. You went back to your message with Jace that he has yet to reply, “IM DEFINITELY GOIJG TO MURDER YOU....”

Thinking of what to reply to Noah you type, “I’m really sorry. He has this thing where he swears one day he’s going to find my future husband. He has a Cupid complex it seems. I’m really sorry you thought I was someone else. I’m going to murder him, really.”

“It’s okay really. For a mixup this is going pretty well. So you said your name was (Y/N)? That’s gorgeous. Is there a face I can put to the name? “

Your eyes widen. Oh god. He wants a picture of me. Scrolling through your photos you let out a sigh. Dear god all of these are awful. Dan had a bad habit of taken photos at the worst angles of you.

You look at the mirror on your dresser and let out a shriek. Your hair was in a ponytail with a thousand pieces of hair sticking every where and yesterday’s makeup smeared under your eyes. You hop up and let your hair down running a brush through it and clear the makeup from under your eyes. With a shrug of your shoulders you turn back to your bed. This will have to do.

You plop back down on your bed and hug your pillow. You raise your phone and snap a picture. Looking at it you roll your eyes and groan.... this may take a while. Finally after about 50 different pictures you take one that’s decent. Hmm. I look kinda cute. You look at the photo. Your hair was slightly messy but framed your face. The ruminants of the make up under your eyes made them stand out. Not too bad.

You open your conversation with Noah and send the picture.

You bite away at your nails waiting for his reply... after a few you get nervous. “Sorry it’s awful. It’s way too late to be a try hard 😂.”

*PING*

Your eyes become as wide as saucers and you slowly pick up your phone to see what he replied.

“Damn.. I’m glad Jace slipped me your number..”

“Really? A sigh of relief slips your mouth. Soooo does that mean I get to put a face to your name?”

*PING*

Oh holy shit.... Noah as in Noah Centineo. What the actual fuck did Jace think he was doing...

What do you reply to that? Holy shit your fucking hot? Dear god you’re fine as hell? I’d like you to fuck me in to next week?? Like what response is accurate to a picture like that. They boy was fine and he knew it.

“Wow...” was all you could send..dumbfounded that Jace would even attempt to put you in the same league as someone as attractive as Noah.

“Wow? Is that a wow as in Jesus Christ stop talking to me or wow as in you would want to maybe meet up tomorrow? “ Wait.... was he serious??

Eyes wide you contemplate the options he has given you. No way in hell were you going to stop talking to him. Has he seen himself??

“I think I’d like the latter option.. that is if you were serious?”

“Of course I’m serious. Why don’t you come to the set with Jace tomorrow and we’ll go for some food after filming wraps?”

“See you then. We should probably get some sleep huh?”

“Goodnight (Y/N).”

“Night Noah. See you tomorrow.”

You fall back on your bed in your pile of pillows with a smile on your face..

You were still going to kill Jace though..

Okay guys, so this is my first ever imagine/series that I’ve posted on here. Wanted to know what you guys think and if I should continue it? Maybe make it into a mini-series? Let me know what you think! Also requests are open if anyone has anything they want written!

Part 2 is up!

MTG Weekly Tumblr Recap: April 24, 2017

Hour of Devastation Key art | Wizards of the Coast

Welcome to this week’s worthy edition! Prereleases were in full swing this weekend and this week saw Trials, Zombies, and our first glimpse of Razaketh in the Magic Story. Wizards might have moved the capital ‘A’ Announcement Day to June, but apparently no one told the announcements. Join us by the fertile banks of the Luxa that is this issue of the Magic: the Gathering Weekly Tumblr Recap.

1. Isn’t It Iconic…

Found on Twitter

Our recent announcement from Wizards’ home base this past week was quite substantial, with the upcoming Commander 2017 products which feature an exciting new tribal theme! We also have the name of the fall set, Ixalan, which will rotate into Standard with and is currently rumored to have a Meso-American theme. Likely the largest and most anticipated of all was Iconic Masters, which will feature iconic cards from all over Magic history!

Commander 2017 is set to be released on August 25 and will be available in English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese and Japanese. The products will all be available in the United States for MSRP at $34.99. They will feature a tribal theme, supposedly with Magic’s most popular and interesting tribes. A total of 56 new cards will be legal as well in Legacy and Vintage at that, and the most notable detail, there will only be FOUR of these decks as opposed to the usual five. More information is available here.

Ixalan, the 2017 fall set to come, has quite a few rumors floating about for its theme. One very popular speculation is that it has a Meso-American theme as aforementioned. One interesting speculation came from Zurgo Helmsmasher @khanofthemardu​, with another one here from @vampire-hoe via @chelsea-beleren-vess​‘s inbox. Check out some other ones here:

http://sarpadianempiresvol-viii.tumblr.com/post/159728962689/helene-bergeot-confirmed-today-that-the-fall-set.

http://coincidencetheories.tumblr.com/post/159806978574/mtg-conspiracy-ixalan-is-a-return-to-new-phyrexia.

http://darth-daud.tumblr.com/post/159788985615/im-so-glad-that-they-basically-confirmed-in-my. 

However, let it be noted that the Inkmoth Nexus promo is not indicative of Ixalan being a return to New Phyrexia.

Iconic Masters is the next “Masters” set, which will be released on November 17 of this year. There is something very special about this set in particular: there will not be previews of this set! We are told that the set will feature new artwork on many cards, bringing in an array of Angels, Sphinxes, Demons, Dragons, and Hydras (each color’s iconic creatures!) along with some of the most memorable spells in the game’s history. Still in line with previous “Masters” sets, it will have 24 booster packs of 15 cards each, including one premium card. Undoubtedly the set will have a very engaging draft format as Modern Masters 2017 and Eternal Masters before it. This set will be released at HASCON along with additional announcements on Ixalan, so be sure to grab your ticket! Some speculative links below:

https://island-delver-go.tumblr.com/post/159827828502/with-the-reveal-of-iconic-masters-some-people.

With these announcements in mind, several questions come to bare, many more than I can think of currently I’d bet, but tell us your theories and thoughts on Commander 2017, Ixalan, and Iconic Masters! Whatever the outcome of these will be I’m sure Wizards has quite a few surprises for us yet to come.

2. This  Week’s Magic Story Review

Servants by Kelly Digges

Lliliana, Death’s Majesty | Original MTG art by Chris Rallis

As the cards for Amonkhet were revealed to us, piece by piece during the glorious scramble that was spoiler season, two very significant names were conspicuously absent. Nicol Bolas, the man everyone wanted to see, as well what some, if not most, thought of as the warm-up act, one Razaketh. In Servants, the latter of these mysteries deepens.

With Gideon carting his touche with Oketra, and Nissa and Chandra exploring the forbidden sarcophoguses down Hapatra’s part of town, Liliana has been making inquiries of her own. With zombies literally everywhere, she is reticent to use her necromanty injudiciously, so she has been sending shades to search for any news on Razaketh. Razaketh is the third of four Demons that Liliana made pacts with for the eternal youth and seeming immortality she craved so deeply. Two of her demons, Kothophed and Griselbrand we have met in story and in card, and more importantly, they have met their fate, at a Chain Veil augmented Liliana’s hand. Razaketh’s presence on Amonkhet was no small part of Liliana’s reasons in agreeing and advocating to come here. She harbors strong hopes of enlisting the Gatewatch’s considerable talents in helping her defeat a being even more formidable than Griselbrand. 

The ever present yet enigmatic Raven Man is with her, he chiding her for her seemingly tardy and lackadaisical attitude toward ridding herself of the demons, in his mind the tarrying on Ravnica and Kaladesh was time that could have been better spent, and that he feels she is weakening in resolve and allowing the Gatewatch’s upright and selfless ideals to soften her and dull her otherwise keen sense of self-interest. It is especially hinted on three or four visits from Jace back when they were still on Ravnica that went deep into the night might be more than simple machination and manipulation, something she protests vociferously.

With ears clearly burning Jace arrives just as a shade brings Liliana word of a place to investigate. Liliana invites Jace along, knowing if she didn’t he’d just come along anyway, just invisibly. They are led by Liliana’s agent down to a subterranean facility where scores of Anointed prepare and process the less successful initiates of the Trials 

Anointer Priest | Original MTG art by Lake Horwitz

A relief in the bowels of this place reveals to Jace that Liliana is not, in fact in pursuit of Bolas, but Razaketh. Having been betrayed in the past by Liliana, Jace is less than happy about the omission of this significant detail about the plane, while from Liliana’s point of view, the eyes of the Razaketh carving snap open, and the Anointed start chanting her name. What cannot be deinied is that the mummies begin to crowd threateningly around Jace and Liliana. Liliana’s powers over the undead are blunted by the cartouches worn by the Anointed, and Temmet arrives to find the newcomers where no newcomers should be. Jace is forced to take over Temmet’s mind in order to carve a path for he and LIliana through the throng, and leaves Temmet unconscious and defenseless in a room where the occupants have strict instructions as to what happens to inert, lifeless bodies under their care…

…perhaps?

3. A Brief History of Jace and Liliana

Liliana Vess Speedpaint | Art by @oddsbod

A long, winding road brought Jace Beleren and Liliana Vess together. Their journey started with Nicol Bolas, which seems to be where they are winding up now.

In Agents of Artifice, Liliana travels to Ravnica where she meets Jace and his best friend Kallist Rhoka. Jace Beleren joins an interplanar organization known as The Infinite Consortium. Tezzeret becomes Jace’s strong-handed mentor, in hopes of training him to become a more talented mage. Tezzeret undoubtedly hopes that Jace will join Nicol Bolas in his quest for power. However, Tezzeret’s tactics are abusive; they are not at all characteristics of a healthy mentor/mentee relationship.

Enter Liliana Vess, who has made four deals with demons, and then subsequently with Nicol Bolas. She has to turn the Consortium over to Bolas in exchange for his help in finding and destroying her demon masters. She then begins a relationship with Jace to do this, so that they can take the Consortium for themselves. Jace falls in love with Liliana, and Liliana returns the feelings. It is known that they care very deeply for each other. However, her feelings of love toward Jace are not enough to stave off her betrayal, and she reveals to Jace (disguised as the planeswalker Baltrice) her motives. Jace then subsequently leaves Liliana, but forgives her and makes a pact to help her rid herself of demons. At the end of the AoA, Jace states: Like a thousand suns will rise across a thousand world, he knew that he and Liliana would meet again. He would get to know her, beneath the disguise, the desperation and the lies. If he could love who he found, perhaps they could begin again.

Fast forward to Catching Up, where Liliana visits Jace on Ravnica to ask for help with her demons. However, they are interrupted by Gideon, who pulls Jace off to Zendikar for the events of Battle for Zendikar. When the Gatewatch disposes of Kozilek and Ulamog, Jace follows Emrakul’s trail to Innistrad, where he meets up  with Liliana and asks for her help. Liliana ultimately joins the Gatewatch and helps them trap Emrakul.

The Gatewatch then travels to Kaladesh at the urging of Dovin Baan, where they find that Tezzeret is a public figure. Tezzeret is still very much alive and causing harm, so the Gatewatch takes a stance against the Consulate.

After the events of Kaladesh, the Gatewatch travels to Amonkhet, though Liliana doesn’t tell them her true motives for going to the plane, which is her third demon, Razaketh.

4. Fan-arts…

Free Dogs | Original art by @shutupismelldrawings

This week in the fan art corner, we have some absolutely wonderful pieces. It feels like I say that every week, but, hey, I’ll stop when y’all stop making absolutely wonderful pieces… Watching our Gates this week are the cutest pair, with @darkselia​ ‘s Liliana, and @jakaltimes ‘s depiction of Gideon’s complex yet simple develpoing relationship with a literal God 

@oddsbod chimes in with the early moments from last week’s story, The Writing on the Wall with Nissa’s Dream, and @zeico treats us with a sketch of Ravnica’s most electric experiment Ral Zarek 

@Isharton contintues to absolutely kill it with this drawing of Hipster Hazoret and Coffeshop Oketra

5. Tumblr Magnet

Tumble Magnet | Original MTG art, Drew Baker

Here are a few longer form articles written this week or simply recently that you might have skipped over that are worth the time to go back and read… @akhonography writes on Egyptian influences relating to Amonkhet, and here she has a few small notes on Cleopatra, the inspiration behind Hapatra @sarpadianempiresvol-viii argues that Amonkhet’s top down design is a boon for new players to get a handle on Speaking of new players, @imakethecard​ explains why the power-level of intro and Planeswalker decks are kept so low.

@askkrenko gives their opinion on why colorless cards are the most damaging type of card to be overpowered

@krymsinviking and others discuss the merits of having full art lands if and when we return to Theros. 

@cameronlamcomposer brings us Abzan’s First Lady, The Foremost, in song form!

— Compiled by Liam W, @coincidencetheories

…and finally: Tap for Initiative

It’s always a wonderful moment when a labor of love comes to fruition, or at the very least makes it into beta. @yaldobaoth has been working on their Magic the Gathering RPG system for over nine months, and is proud to release it into the wild, looking for people to take it for a test run, really put it through it’s paces and help find out where the next improvements are to be found!

Thank you again for reading this week’s issue of the MTG Weekly Tumblr Recap. Hope to see you next week!

The Murderer: A Play

Opinion 1

*Courtains up and lights on, the setting is a courtroom deciding whether defendant Edgar Martinez is guilty of Roberto Lopez’s murder. In the back of the courtroom is Roberto’s family, waiting anxiously and hoping that edgar will be found guilty for a crime that they know he committed. As soon as we finish looking at the family Judge enters the room*

Bailiff: ALL RISE

*everyone in the courtroom rises* 

*The judge enters and sits in his place. Seconds after, the jury comes in from another door. Once the jury is seated, everyone else sits. The Judge waits a second and then looks over compassionately to the family.*

Judge: In the case of The murder of Roberto Lopez, the jury has found Edgar Martinez… NOT GUILTY. 

*Speeds time, Now Edgar is  exiting the courtroom and he gets into a friends car*

Friend: So is it done? Are you off the hook

 Edgar:  I can’t believe I got away with it yet again..This was my last court appearance for this case… and I….*Edgar pauses, looks at his friend and then out the window as if still paranoid, then looks at friend again with a huge grin on his face*.... I just can't believe I got away with it again. *he screams again for emphasis and laughs. Throws a fist in the air*

*friend looks surprised, and scared at the same time*

*friend shudders as he says the following*

Friend: Well, h-how d-did you do it?

Edgar: Luck, man. The fingerprints were not taken from the crime scene correctly. I mean, you’d think these idiots would know what to do after working in forensics so long, but to this day…

*Edgar trails off as if in deep thought*

Edgar: anyway, because they were not removed correctly, they couldn't prove that I WAS at the crime scene. So they acquitted me. Forensics is a pseudo science if you ask me. They don't know shit and they can never prove shit

*The friend looks stunned. He looks over to edgar and notices that edgar is looking at him intently, friend shutters a little and you can see him becoming increasingly afraid. He tries to shake it off visibly and shakily asks*

Friend: So.. whats next?

Edgar: *looks over at his friend with a mischievous grin on his face.* You are

*Edgar pulls out a gun and shoots the man in the head. The car swerves, and almost hits another.Edgar grabs the wheel, at the same time that he pushes the driver's seat far back enough to make sure that he has space. Then, he jumps over to the driver's seat almost hitting various cars. You hear car honks and hysterics outside the vehicle.*

Edgar *as he's looking up at the sky with a grin. He looks and feels invincible. He flips off a woman who seems to be on the phone trying to describe him to police*: Well, my dear friend, you're not my first victim and will certainly not be my last… you knew too much..

 *Lights off and curtain down as we watch edgars vehicle drive away into the sunset*

The Great Failure: A Children's story

OPINION 2

Once upon a time, there was a family of carrots. This family was close. They were happy and grateful to be able to live their lives happy every day. 

One day, one of the carrots named Jacee didn’t come home. Momma carrot was very worried! She looked everywhere but she couldn't find Jacee!

Momma carrot decided that she needed to call the bears. The bears came into their home and asked questions about when the last time jacee had been seen. They conducted an investigation.

During the investigation, they found Jack. Jack was a bunny. He had taken Jacee and eaten her! The bears suspected this but they couldn’t prove it. The carrot family was really, really sad. They wanted the bears to bring justice and make sure that this wouldn't happen again. 

The bears needed more proof that Jack ate Jacee so they called the Koalas to help. 

The Koalas job was to make sure that they picked up enough evidence to prove that jack took Jacee and ate her. But the Koalas did not focus on Jack, instead, they focused on  Ollie the Owl. They didn't like Owls so they wanted to blame Ollie for eating Jacee.

Even though the bears didn't think it was Ollie fault, the only evidence they had available made it seem like it was. They took Ollie underground and hid him there for eating Jacee. 

Momma carrot tried telling the bears that Ollie was not at fault, but the bears told Momma carrot that science said otherwise. “What science?” momma Carrot said, “Owls don't even like carrots”

“Im sorry, ma’am the case has been closed” said the bears

Momma Carrot walked away very sad and very disappointed. Not only had her daughter been eaten, but now, thanks to the Koalas not doing their job correctly, the rest of her family wasn't safe.

As she walked home, she pondered on what she could do to keep her family safe.

“Could I possibly move to another part of the forest?” she asked herself out loud

“Well no, I can't, this is the only place I can afford…” she mumbled under her breath “And Max the carrot is going to graduate from elementary school soon I don't want to take him from his friends…”

“OH! I know!” she exclaimed “Maybe I can buy cameras to keep surveillance”

“NO,NO,NO” she said to herself “That wont do anything to protect my babies.. That will only watch them or prove who it was once it already happened… I need to avoid it from happening…”

Momma carrot stayed in deep thought the whole time she went home. As she was walking home, she past the house of Ollie The Owl. His mother was crying at the door as she put up a “For Sale” sign. 

“My son didn't do it, why does this have to happen to our family” Ollie’s mother asked herself with grief.

She then passed the Koalas, who seemed pleased with their work and happy with the investigation done.

“Great job ladies and gentlemen,” said the Koala Boss “thanks to us, there's one more safe family on the street.”

Finally, Momma Carrot reached her home. She opened the door with excitement because she had finally realized what she could do to keep her family safe.

“I figured it out guys! I know how to keep us safer” and as she looked inside, she saw that no one from her family was home. There was only Jack the bunny.

A Diary entry from a Forensic Technician:

Opinion 3

Dear Diary, 

There are not many perfect things in this world. Matter of fact, I used to think that there were NO perfect things until I started studying Forensic Science. You see, I used to be sad. I was never ever happy. The problem was, I couldn't make the right decisions. I thought the world was out to get me. I mean, I decided to get married the first time and that was a failure. I tried the second time and that was a failure too… After that, I decided to quit trying… That was also the wrong choice… And then my mother died and so did my great grandma. But after all these bad decisions and after all these horrible life events, I always had one thing to go to: MY JOB. I mean, I went into that lab and put my emotions into my work. 

So yes, I did accidentally get an innocent man convicted the first time I got divorced, but I mean COME ON, who wouldn't have? I didn't have anything else in my mind. Either way, he was let go… after 5 years in prison but I mean… It could've been worse, right? It really could have been longer. He should be grateful that I found the person who was actually guilty. I mean , it wasn't my fault that the fingerprint was cut in half, was it?And it's also not my fault that that man had a fingerprint so similar to the actual murderer. I mean, it was basically the universe trying to get this man in prison. It's not my fault or Forensics fault! If God wants you to go to prison to learn a life lesson, then what can Forensic Science do to stop that?

Exactly! NOTHING!

I mean, there was that other time when we simply couldn't find DNA on the crime scene so I had to get some footprints from a block away and match it to the neighbors… But what was that neighbor doing so far away from his house anyway? 

Either way, the city needs to have a feeling of security. If they don't feel safe, there could be chaos. I mean, we had to pin it on someone. 

But I mean, those weren't the best times, we have some really good times.. Like when we convicted Ted Bundy.. And more..

I mean, if it wasn’t for forensics and Ted Bundy's very unique bite….

Man, I sure am GLAD that I have a diary. I mean, its like this thing hears me out and understand me….
