I'm not reblogging this bc I think op is on their first listen though (and I love their live-blogging!!) and I would hate to spoil anything for them

{SPOILERS FOR 119}

But, as of 119, Chip is all of those things.

He's really, truly, confidently- a pirate captain. Leading his co-captains (and Aurora!!) with confidence. In the hole in the sea, saying "Captain Rose isn't calling the shots anymore." Leading his crew to find those that were lost in the Black Sea. Sticking to his own pirate oath. Fucking shit up. Helping those in need. Being the best god-damn pirate the world has ever seen.

Aurora looks at them, at the Champion of the Undersea- armor clad with his shield, at the Daughter of the Navy- fiery hair and wings, and the only Captain she sees is Chip.

And he's a hero. When he reunited with Arlin, he came to the awful, incredibly hard, painful decision that he would give him up to keep the world from falling into destruction. Chip would give up the man- his DAD -who he gave everything to save. Chip lost his own life and kept going to save Arlin, content with the possibility that he himself would die fully. But for the world that treated him so horribly, Chip still chose to save it. And (with cruel irony) he would have, if not for Gillion, the hero.

And god. In 119, Chip is such a good fucking friend. He sees his co-captains, shattered by their own decisions and actions, and he's there for them. He's never angry at them. Even in all the destruction that Jay accelerated, all Chip wants to know is that she's okay, and that Lizzie is okay. And once he knows that, he believes that everything *will* be okay. And when she goes unconscious at the pond, he carries her back to Ursus. He gives Gillion the time that he needs at the bottom of the pond to come to terms with what he did. He's there for them. He's leading them. He loves them.

!! MAJOR JRWI EPISODE 114 SPOILERS AHEAD !!

-

I just had a sick and twisted fucking thought about episode 114 and I need to share it to the world.

Okay, so Chip realises his mistake- trusting Gillion's clone and failing to see the red flags because, well it's Gill (I could go on a rant about this too)- Gillion's clone has pushed him to the ground and is towering over him. If Chip could bleed, his nose would probably be bloody.

And at this exact moment, where Chip can't use his magic to defend himself and his best-friend is threatening to kill him- we cut back to the real Gillion, who is running up these flights of stairs away from a monster that could literally breathe on him and end his life, he's on 1HP.

AND HERE'S THE THING. HERE'S WHAT I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT.

Destiny's Blade glows in Gillion's hands and whispers that, 'Chip is about to die.'

Gillion- with zero hesitation- goes running to find him and save his life.

THIS SCENE HAS SO MANY LAYERS TO IT- YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW, MAN- ISTG.

So, for starters, Chip is undead- he physically cannot die, or at least not very easily; I'm guessing that it would take an incredibly powerful, god like entity/bad guy to actually end his undead life now. And yet, Destiny's Blade says that he's about to die.

The blade itself was designed for slaying the undead and the evil entities Gillion himself was designed to fight against- but when it comes to Chip, there's nothing Gillion wouldn't do to protect him with this sword. And that reflects on Destiny's Blade, I would imagine- the blade supports Gillion's destiny, his fight for good.

And to add to this, I don't know if Chip actually could've been killed by clone Gillion- but the idea that he came close and that the sword instinctually reached out to save his life is just- WRAH.

It also highlights just how scared Chip was, because he couldn't fight the clone even if he wanted to, not only because of the magic barrier- but because it's Gill, his co-captain, his best-friend, his paladin (a pirate and his paladin I'm sorry- I love them sm lmao).

And yes, Gillion is known for taking ridiculous risks to keep his friends safe, willing to take every blow and keep fighting like it doesn't hurt because he's a knight, he was trained for this, this is what he's good at- but he runs to find Chip, ON 1HP. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH- THIS MAN WAS IN PIECES, HIS SKIN HAD BEEN TAKEN FROM HIM, AND IF NOT FOR THE DEATH WARD HE PROBABLY WOULD'VE DIED. But he runs off to find him anyway, no hesitation, no thought of his own well-being, only that Chip is in serious danger and he needs to save him. He won't let him die twice.

PRAYING THAT SOMEONE READS THROUGH THIS TANGENT TBH BECAUSE I'M GOING INSANE RIGHT NOW- I'M SORRY THIS IS SO LONG LMAO 😭🙏
