TC 176-4 sketch

Right?

R: no matter, i got what i was looking for anyway.

H: that was close, hun. Do you think hes gone for good now that he found out youre suki?

S: i don’t know hon.

TC 176-3 sketch

S: What are you gonna do about it?

R: what did you –

S: i said, what are you gonna do about it? People are gonna be asking what an eagle was doing slumming around here for weeks just as much as they’ll question me for what im wearing. I don’t think you want to deal with that kind of attention.

TC 176-2 sketch

H: (don’t you dare tell him a crow works here ill lose all my customers)

S: ....this place has good drinks. I stop by here sometimes.

R: dressed as a shot boy?

S: ...this is just my style of clothing outside of school.

R: with those feathers, too? It’s illegal to imitate another species, especially a corvid. As im sure you’re aware.

TC 176-1 sketch

H: I’llll just take this child and go – mustve escaped the daycare again – that babysitter’s gonna get a earful let me tell ya -

R: why am i not surprised to find you here, crow?

TC 175-12 sketch

R: finally after all this waiting, i have my answer.

this whole ep took so long to line y'all, really not looking forward to colouring hahaaaa

TC 175-11 sketch

S: that’s suicide –

H: if you boys are quite done down here, i have a bunch of customers waiting to be waited on -

D: shit – one’s escaping – grab her! (runs by) don’t let her get upstairs –

H: so slippery – scra your mask -

TC 175-10 sketch

S: are those...chimeras?!

D: old crows, chimeras and the occasional hybrid. Cyras doesn’t discriminate against the persecuted. You must’ve really gotten into his good graces if he thinks you’re up to this task, though.

S: what task?

D: we’ve got a rescue job. High-profile. Basically impossible.

S: and cyras thinks im up for that??

D: apparently.

S: ...where’s the target?

D: the director’s house.

TC 175-9 sketch

D: looks like youve finally made it to the big leagues, huh kid?

S: im not really sure if hanging out in hon’s basement dressed for work counts as “big leagues”. Ive been down here tons of times to change the kegs so forgive me if i don’t get the hype. (I’m working can we make this quick)

D: I bet you ain’t ever been through here though.

S:...no, i can’t say hon ever gave me the key to her underground tunnel. Does this –

D: connect to all the other ones...

mans about to bust poor fella

TC 175-8 sketch

B: well, looks like we’re on our own quests, then. Bye reamer. If i see you again, ill probably kill you. Enjoy being the loneliest man in the world.

TC 175-7 sketch

R: something mentioned in my mothers notes, ages ago. She was looking for it. Some kind of weapon, she thinks.

B: and you wanted to find it first, to prove something to her. Let me ask you this – if you find it before her, what will you do with it – control it, or gift it to her?

R: (smiles) i haven’t made up my mind about that yet.

TC 175-6 sketch

. You’re incapable of not using the people around you to get what you want. For what – to impress your mother? So she doesn’t see you as the pathetic loser you are? You want her respect so badly you’ve lost everyone else’s along the way.

R: as if you could understand.

B: im probably the only person who does. Im the same with my father. The one you had stolen from his hospital bed. What was that Croaking thing the magpie was talking about?

TC 175-5 sketch

I knew you were up to something, you told us as much, but my dad, man? My fucking dad? You stooped too low. That’s something i cant let slide.

R: i promised my friends would be safe, and you are. Your father is required for a higher purpose.

B: we were never actually friends, reamer. We were just forced together by the circumstances of our birth.

TC 175-4 sketch

B: it’s always you, isn’t it. All your scheming, lying, manipulating, you just can’t help yourself, can you.

TC 175-3 sketch

REI: hey youre the reason those sparrows jumped us in the first place – if we hadn’t been interrogating them because of some rumor you heard, looking for that Croaking thing, they wouldn’t had felt the need to come after us. we killed our leader because you said she might get in the way. We’ve done your dirty work, now pay up.

R: you will be paid when you have the chief back in your custody, no sooner.

REI: you eagle bastard –

R: Get him back, or i will ha...

TC 175-2 sketch

R: what happened. Is the chief secure.

Rei: im fine, thanks for asking. We got swarmed by sparrows, they snuck up and beat the shit out of us. Took the old man with them.

R: you lost him –

Rei: they took him. you’re not paying us enough to risk our lives for this bullshit plan of yours –

R: the chief is worth more than any of your miserable lives put together. Get him back. Now.

TC 175-1 sketch

R: I said not to be late. And yet here you are, wasting my time.

Reik: yer lucky im here at all you bastard. Half my flock cant even stand up right now.

TC 174-12 sketch

R: set up a meeting. Tell him to not be late. We need to discuss the next phase of the plan.

TC 174-11 sketch

. But i realized you’re too like your mother, and that neither of you would ever let me go. As you said, her demands are unending. Well, so are yours. And im done. With both of you.

R: you’re walking away from your last chance at actually getting your sister back.

K: sorry reamer, turns out your mom was right about one thing. You have a lot of trouble making friends, huh.

TC 174-10 sketch

K: have you found anything. About the croaking. Your mother’s expecting an answer tomorrow or ill never see my sister again.

R: (looking at phone) ive got a few open enquiries, im sure they’ll get back to me soon.

K: you haven’t been looking, have you.

R: of course i have, but these things take time, cedoc –

K: why did you take me to that dove temple? Was it because you hoped i would see the chimera children? So you could tell me what happens to them? Because y...

TC 174-9 sketch

R: reamer knows where she is, too. Tiara said.

K: w-what. He made a deal with me to help get her back in exchange for telling him what his mom was having me do.

R: looks like he played you.

K: for the last time. Stay here.

R: ky -

TC 174-8 sketch

K: you...what...where –

R: tiara and i went to your hometown. We met your dad. He’s an asshole, by the way.

K: yeah, i know. But why did you go?

R: to try figure out more about you...and keelee. Because tiara found her, and wasn’t sure she could tell you because you and the director could’ve been in on it and telling you would’ve endangered keelee, so she had to be sure first. I took a risk by coming here, but i was tired of being in the dark and i had to know the ...

TC 174-7 sketch

K: ...i don’t.

R: are you doing all of this because the director threatened her if you didn’t?

K: i...cant say –

R: do you want her back?

K: ree, this was all for her. Every last second of it.

R: I know where she is.

TC 174-6 sketch

K: ...it wasn’t my secret to tell. The more people who knew, the more scra was in danger -

R: oh don’t pretend you actually care about him, about either of us. You were there to be a snake in the grass the entire time and report back. The only thing i want to know is...why. why are you working for her?

K: i can’t –

R: were’s keelee?Do you know?

TC 174-5 sketch

You not denying it just then confirmed it. On top of that, lars showed me camera footage of all your late-night meetings with the big lady herself. What did she want you for, to spy on scra? Make sure he was doing everything she was telling him to? Help him fake murders? Yeah, I know del’s alive, too. I suspect you do, too. You knew how messed up that was making me – why did you keep lying about it to my face?

TC 174-4 sketch

The dyed feathers. The fact that you were even at the roost in the first place. you were shady from the start, man.

TC 174-3 sketch

R: I’ve suspected for a while, honestly. Your high test grades, even though you were struggling in most classes. You knocking Kerwick on her ass when you told everyone you were bad at fighting.

TC 174-2 sketch

R: what, no pseudo-oblivious comeback? No, wHaT aRe YoU tAlKiN’ ‘bOuT, rEe??

K: I can’t do this anymore, ree. Any of it.

R: what, finally tired of all the lying, pretending to be our friend, putting on the sweet, lovable guy act? Pretending you weren’t just working for the Director this whole time?

K: how did you figure it out? I’m not surprised you did, you’re smarter than all of us.

TC 174-1 sketch

K: seems like you’ve got it all figured out.
