Happy Catwin Day everyone! Let 11/20/24 forever be remembered as such.

I'm sharing some Catwin relevant tik toks, Gameos and Gameodens to commemorate the occasion. Under the cut because it got long.

"What's next for Edwin?" : ["Dating"]

"Date ideas [for Edwin] besides a walk?" "That would depend on the date in question"

"If he hadn't kept him there, would Edwin have been down for a smooch?" " :/ No, I don't think so. Not then. He was already fairly discombobulated with. . . not having a smooch. I think he would have combusted."

"What's next for the Cat King?" "I actually KNOW what would be in store for them. . . potentially. Moving forward. So, that is slightly determined by what I know."

Props George stole from set: including the Cat King bracelet

"This one was perhaps a little bit naughty"

Edwin's internal perception of each character besides Charles, including Cat King

"Cat King came as a shock to Edwin--an exciting shock, but a shock, nonetheless. He causes something to shift in Edwin that makes him feel very unsafe but that's fun to play, and as an audience, fun to watch."

The one that started it all! Catwin canon events in Season 2!!!

More s2 Cat King implications. The highlight for me is Jayden's face journey in the background:

What we're doing here

Hello! After seeing @noctua-an-owl's awe-inspiring thread of First Round Gameos* on the bird app, I realized that I could do the same thing over here, since tumblr is better suited for storage. We managed to hunt down 176 of the 417 First Round Gameos released this August (plus three Jameos for enrichment!).

And now we get to look forward to ANOTHER WEEK OF GAMEODENS*?? AND GEORGE OPENED UP AGAIN THIS WEEK FOR AN UNANNOUNCED SEASON 3 AND A GAMEOSSIUS*???? Amazing!!

(* George + Cameo = Gameo; George + Jayden + Cameo = Gameoden; George + Cameo + Kassius = Gameossius)

What to expect

About 4 gameo(den)s a day during this second (and third) season, then we go to re-runs.

I will update posts with new information as I find it, especially when I can get a transcript for subtitles, and I'll delete duplicate posts to keep it tidy. <3

How can you help?

If you'd like to contribute to the wonderful @edmcmayonnaise created tracking sheet, it's here.

If you want to share anonymously, feel free to message me with links or questions.

If you'd like to create transcripts for any of the videos, feel free to message me with what you have. (shout out to @pipwasreal!)

If I've missed anything from either round, please please please send me links and tips to Gameo(den)s, yours or others that were publically posted.

Thanks to @deadboyagency for posting so many of these already, and the biggest hugs and gratitude to @noctua-an-owl who worked (and is still working) tirelessly on twitter to collect these gameos - my work very much builds on what they did so lovingly.

(Last, please don't be alarmed if a non-gameo post goes up; I'm still getting used to having 2 blogs and I'm making mistakes *constantly*. As soon as I catch it, I'll delete it. :) )

is it weird that i really truly sincerely love the idea of george with five duck sized jaydens

Can't believe how good we had it in August. Dozens of fresh adorable Gameos everyday. Jayden thugging it out through a horror video game he hated while we played drinking bingo to raise money for Parkinson's research. The hope of a second season. New art, new fan fics everyday. Chorbwin. Five duck sized Jaydens. George cooking a roast dinner for Jayden instead of roasting him. An official Edwin playlist.

Stay strong, comrades. The sun will shine on us again. And we've got literally forever to figure the rest out.

Love how upset the fandom at large is on behalf of George. Netflix did him so dirty.

[fan-a-tink]

Our “very literature and history inspired” cameo ✨

We asked about Edwin’s favourite books, and whether he would have read WW1 poetry (his answer to that one actually kills me) and what part of history he would have been most shocked to find out about after coming back from hell. 

Also the line “I have a feeling you both perhaps have more brains than Edwin” will make me giddy with joy forever!

GAMEO ERA IS BAAAACKKK

🍬 Happy Halloween! Here's some new George content as a treat 🍬

I think it is so interesting that he talks about Edwin moving with a flourish! We can see some examples of this even if we just look at a few moments from the show. It's in how expressively he talks, it's in how he swivels on his heel when he moves, and it's in how he looks just as surprised as Charles when they're listening to new ideas.

I wanted to appreciate everything George put into his performance for a moment. He's so complex, so comfortable in his skin. I love that George mentioned that Edwin does not have regrets or guilt about his capabilities. He is comfortable how he is. I also love that he humored us and gave us gems like he is comfortable with specifically Charles touching him. I just love that Edwin feels so confident in who he is and what he wants.

[creamsoda1998]

Here are my questions for this cameo: In ep4, what is Edwin referring to when he says "extreme" after Charles attacks the Night Nurse? What was Edwin thinking when Charles refused to be comforted?

Here is my question for this cameo: Jayden said on a Twitch stream that he tried to make you laugh where he was playing Charles disguised as the Cat King, but you stayed professional the entire time. Could you share any funny moments from the set?

[pipwasreal]

@gameo-archive another one for the collection!

About Charles using mirrors as windows, the 'thing that is worse than a demon', and love for Jenn Lyon.

Transcript under the read more...

George: Hi Pip, it's George and Jayden here from the Dead Boy Detectives. It's lovely to hear from you, thank you so much for being a part of our little cameo week, or half week, we've absolutely loved it, getting to relive all things Dead Boy Detectives. Now, let's get into your request. You've said: "Jayden, when did Charles figure out mirrors could be used as windows?"

Jayden: Ooh well I always imagined that Edwin, obviously, Edwin has all these books of magic spells and I reckon from time to time Charles probably would have a little scroll through them himself, and I reckon that that was something he saw in one of those books and a spell that he really wanted to master as he obviously did want to go and check in on his mum. Um so yeah that is how I think he came to knowing how to do that. "George, what is the 'thing that is worse than a demon' Edwin was traded to in Hell?"

George: Great question. I probably could've had a more clear-cut answer when I filmed the scene a year and a half ago, but I imagine it was something, maybe like some evil of a non-physical form and I imagine it might have been some form of torture, so you know, like you see in, I can't remember which realm of Hell it is, but when the boys are running through the hotel, through Hell, and everyone's stuck, they're frozen... something of that ilk. It would have been a form of torture, like maybe in a room, kind of powered by a non-physical entity and I think that would have been a big struggle. Um you've said: "Please tell Jenn Lyon she is iconic. Esther is the best antagonist, so funny and scary." Listen, I tell Jenn, I speak to her a lot and I'm often telling her how much she is loved. So I will pass this on gladly, because it's true.

Jayden: And we agree.

George: We agree.

Jayden: Very, very much so. In episode 8, I was chained up to a kitchen cabinet, and in most cases that would've been awful, but the fact that it was Jenn Lyon aka Esther's cabinet, it made it a little bit easier. Listen, we love you Jenn, if you do ever watch this, but we also love you, Pip.

George: We love you, Pip.

Jayden: Thank you so much for sending in this request, you are such an angel, thank you for showing love and supporting our show. Sending you lots and lots of love.

George: Bye!

[pringle-slut]

How have you enjoyed your Cameo experience?

“I've really enjoyed my Cameo experience, you know. It's been a really, um--you know, there's two reasons why I say I've been moved. I've been moved because people have shown generosity to a cause that's, you know, obviously very close to my heart, but I've also been really moved by not just seeing the love for the show but by feeling it. People have asked really specific, intricate questions, really detailed questions, which goes to show, to me, one, probably how many times they've watched the show, in the best way, but also kind of how invested they are in it, really. And, you know, me, Jayden, Kassius, the rest of the cast, this has been nearly three years of our lives that we've poured into this show and we all love it so much, and we've been really invested in it. And generally when you put so much into something, you want--you hope that something comes out of it, and this has been getting to feel that come out of it this week, because I'm not really online in a sort of interactive way, has been very special and very gratifying and very moving. So yeah, thank you, to everyone."

❤️❤️❤️

[shaylogic]

For everyone enjoying the gameoden week and who enjoyed gameo week a few months back, I want to point out that Joshua Colley (Monty of Dead Boy Detectives) is also on Cameo right now! He will also do singing requests, btw. Feel free to show him some love <3

[gameo-archive]

"OMG, my cameo is here!!!! Listen!!!"

"Will you say some lines of [the show in] Italian?"

He also states that his knowledge of Italian is what influenced the Latin incantation.

I can't figure out all of them, but here's what I think I understand:

"Oh, you love this, don't you?" (Edwin to Crystal in ep 2)

"Being a detective is not all invading people's minds, getting a reading, and tada! Sometimes actual detective work is involved." (Edwin to Crystal in ep 2)

"Does that look blue to you, Charles?!" (Edwin to Charles in ep 2)

"We have the same left!" (ditto)

"And you, Charles Rowland, are the best person I know." (ep 5)

"If you punish yourself, everywhere becomes Hell." (ep 7)

"As more than a friend, I'm afraid. Charles, I'm in love with you." (ep 7)

"Niko, I'm only a mirror away." (ep 8)

Thanks to @juliasfanart for clarifying what I missed!

[edwinspaynes]

Well, side-eyeing Twitter, that's insane.

Catch me checking Instagram once an hour to make sure George is still there ✌🏻

Also don't be terrible to actors please use common sense. If you don't have something nice to say, don't say it. Or keep it to DMs. Jesus fucking Christ.

[gameo-archive]

Also:

What is something you have in common with Edwin Payne?

Received a Cameo from George today. He is so thoughtful-- I had written to him about how the most impactful scene on the show was Edwin's scene with Simon in Hell, as it identified this deep wound in me (in terms of being a full-ass adult queer who has only quite recently accepted their own queer identity) that began healling with "if you punish yourself, everywhere becomes hell." His response may have made me immediately cry tears of gratitude. My question itself is rather basic-- blame it for being at work and rushing when I submitted it, but his reply is not rushed at all.

Uploading my George Cameo in two parts because it was over 6 minutes long 🫨

The second half is here. Enjoy!
