ART SUMMARY 2024

this "detective caitlyn" scene characterizes her so well

a few things i love, in chronological order of how i clocked them in this scene:

fidgets/has to move while thinking

her determination! / obsession. she would rather solve the issue than let it sit while she rests. she follows through til the very end.

LOVES sharing her theories with people she trusts

has no problem manhandling the people she trusts

cares nothing for frilly, meaningless, artificial condolences, regardless of where they're from (throws JAYCE'S flowers down next to the mountain of other bouquets). gift giving is NAWT her love language

detective work is EASILY her favorite part of her job (even though that's technically not her responsibility). solving cases seems to be her favorite thing. she loves being an enforcer BECAUSE she has access to all the information that others don't have (jayce's "the hexgates???" he is not informed on the day-to-day, but caitlyn was because of her job.

methodical, organized, observant, intelligent. she's a natural detective. (i love you caitlyn)

has no problem approaching/challenging authority in the name of true justice. is unafraid of her "superiors" (marcus who is sheriff AND her boss, the council, her parents)

asks direct questions, and communicates with precise language (the "when? why?" right after realizing jayce is a councillor. she does this no bullshit, no frill communication with vi, too, in stillwater, until she realizes that vi rarely gives her a straight answer (also, that vi is maybe interested in her), so she switches tactics and joins in, eventually growing to actually cherish the fact that she doesn't have to be direct with vi. my shaylasssssssss)

again, SHE HATES APPEARANCES/FACE-SAVING/ARTIFICIALITY. she's instantly disgusted by the "ceremonial position" of being jayce's "security". if it has quotes around it, she don't want it

disgusted by her parents firing her / doing what THEY think is best for her (caitlyn hunting flashback with grayson confirms this)

has no problem delivering commands. "Get out."

her eyes dart around when she's thinking deeply

it's really not hard to see how this girl turned into "commander kiramman" in season 2! not a direct bullet-to-bullet, but:

her case-solving obsession grows to focus solely jinx. it doesn't shift. her case in season 2 is "must capture jinx", but keep in mind -- it's the exact same case as the one she is talking about here. she's been trying to prevent all these attacks (re: prevent innocent loss of life) since the beginning of her time as an enforcer. only, in s2, she now has kidnapping, her own near-murder, her mother's murder, the council's near-murder, to add to the list of crimes associated with the case. this is the biggest case/problem/puzzle of her life, and she's extremely emotional. no wonder she gets obsessed.

she won't stop until the case is solved (jinx is captured).

she lays out a methodical, detailed, plan of how she'll use her new enforcer task force.

she stands up to ambessa when she worries there is injustice, and she does so directly, using precise, direct questions and language.

she interrogates singed using the same direct communication. (later, she relishes the fact that vi is still joking with her when they reunite.)

she visits jailbroken stillwater herself because she never wanted to be a puppet, she'd prefer to always be on the ground.

her personal bounty on jinx is likely weighed down by the loss of a parent, and the anger of another (whose protective choices for cait's life were constantly resisted by caitlyn.) she probably feels remorse for the way she constantly rejected their choices, ultimately leading to her mother getting killed, when she "had the shot"

at multiple times in the second season, her eyes get dart-y/move a lot as she's processing weighty information (the iconic "THAT'S ALL IT TOOK YOU ABSOLUTE FAG").

she and vi take turns topping.

and in all, "she was doing what she thought was right", in the words of her father. yes, her rage blinded her, but ONLY IN REGARDS TO ALL THINGS JINX. she forbid the use of isolation cells, ensured the prisoners had good food, questioned why they were even there in the first place. sleeping with maddie isn't a moral/ethical decision, besides the HR implications of sleeping with a coworker. and the instant vi offered her an out from ambessa, she took it.

(her lack of regard for appearances and artificiality ......... she dgaf ab maddie i'm sorry girl 😭😭😭)

anyway pls show some respect for caitlyn's name & character. she's privileged, yes, but also morally complex (both are traits that ALL OF YOU GUYS HAVE if you just stopped to examine your own lives for ONE SECOND). i think that's beautiful, and i also think it's beautiful that they wrote a woman who experiences the entirety of rage in its most heartbreaking moments.

:D
