2.05

D: So, hypothetical question. Say, two consciousnesses were switched. Any idea how you might switch them back?

J:Uh, well, brains are just chemistry and electricity. If you had a big enough jumpstart, that would probably do the trick but you need a pretty big charge. Is everything okay?

D:Perfect. And that could work. Hypothetically.

J:Well, since we're talking in hypotheticals, how much explosives would it take to, say, set off 20, 30 gas lines?

D:Uh, so long as you start the main line, you shouldn't need much more than a directional charge. Johnny, if you need help...

J: You'd fly right over, I know. Even if you had enough trouble of your own.

D:Come home safe.

J: You too.

Recording of Johnny: I'm coming back eventually, but right now, it's...

Dutch saying at the same time as the recording because she’s replayed it so many times she ‘s memorised his words, knows them by heart: Complicated.

Recording of Johnny: But you have dibs.If you really need me, I'm there. You just say the word.

Dutch x Johnny + “if this is/it’s what you need, this is/then it’s what we do” 3.07 vs 5.10 @killjoysmonth

3.07

- Dutch: I know you don't want me going back in there, and I can't promise you any tactical advantage.

-Johnny: I don't give a shit about tactics right now. I give a shit about you. And if this is what you need, this is what we do. But if anything bad happens in there, I'm coming in to find you.

5.10

-Dutch: If it's what you need…then it's what we do. And while you're at it, take Lucy.

-Johnny: Dutch, I can't do that.

…

- Dutch: Lucy, promise me you'll bring him home safe and in exactly one year. Do you understand?

- Lucy: Agreed.

-Johnny: It's a date.

-Dutch: Find what you're looking for, Johnny. And then bring it home.

- Johnny: Tap my heart.

(Bonus: 1.09 D’av and Johnny discussing the plan to find Khlyen at the RAC and kill him.

D’av: Johnny, that is a lot of security doors on automatic lockdown.You sure this is gonna work?

KILLJOYS + “favorite dynamic” @killjoysmonth

Johnny & affirming Dutch’s agency/choice (her right to choose for herself what she wants to do and that she’s the ultimate creator of herself)

1.09

-Better or worse, he [Khylen] made me who I am.

- Bullshit…But, after all this time, you’re still more your own person than anyone that I know. The only credit that Khylen gets is for the bruises along the way…If you want to fight, I’ll have your back. If you want to run, I’ll call shotgun. But you’ve gotta decide, Yalena.

4.01

-But I don't know how to be a good person.How do you tell someone that?  

-Doesn't matter, 'cause I wouldn't have believed you. She was wrong, you know. People change. Everything changes. That's natural law. Liquids become gases. Bodies become soil.

-Trained killers become healthy, well-adjusted citizens?

-Not by running.What if this time, we stayed? We went straight, we joined the RAC? I mean, I would look great in a uniform.

-But what if I'm no good at normal?

-Well, then, Yalena Yardeen, I would like to formally propose - a Killjoys Twoyear.

-What?

-Give me your finger. Come on. I think you will like the shit out of normal, but if not, in two years, we renew our partnership or reneg. No blame, no tears. Okay?

KILLJOYS + “Endings” & Hope (Season 3)

for @killjoysmonth

- “The universe has a memory. That’s all time really is. Our whole life to hold in moments. The sweet and the sour, the kisses and the scars. Our beginnings and goodbyes, all written down in time. Recorded, so the universe will know we were here, so we won't be forgotten. We are all made of memories. And this is how I remember it ending…”

“The universe has a memory. And this is how I remember it beginning…”

- “But I was here. I was real and I mattered. And I won’t be forgotten!”

- Some of the lighter moments in the finale came after Lovretta turned the script in. “When you don’t know if it’s your last one ever, where you’re tired, and you have about 48 hours, you can get a little fatalistic. I have to give a shout out to Letitia at Syfy who gave me the best talk,” she recalls.

She said, ‘Some of the end positions for all of the characters are a bit dark. I said, ‘Yeah, that’s where my head was at.’ She reminded me…she said, ‘Do what you want to do, but it would be great to fill it with some of that joy that is you and your voice.'”

“I gave myself permission to have the laughs in the elevator and the kisses. It was all those same arcs but ending them on danger before that last beat of Pree is safe, Fancy saves Turin, there’s a kiss We all deserve it. I want us to sit back on the couch and enjoy it.”

“I want to have hope and optimism. Even if the camera stops, they won’t stop in my head or my heart. I don’t want my lack of knowing, being assured, to end us in a place that’s dark. I hope I gave us the true darkness of war — there were losses — but we had a shit ton of fun.”
