An audience with... John Paul Jones

(from Uncut, April 2010 - link)

You’re stuck on a deserted island, you have one instrument you can bring. It is: a) piano, b) bass or c) mandolin? (Gary Attersley, Ontario, Canada)

Oh… that’s horrible! I’ll probably get Hugh Manson – the guy who builds all my bass guitars – to build me some monstrous instrument that encapsulated all three! Hugh and his brother Andy Manson once actually designed me a triple-necked guitar with 12-string guitar, six-string guitar and mandolin on it! Andy also designed a triple-necked mandolin. But I guess if it really came down to it on a desert island, it would have to be the piano, because you can do so much on it. You’re a whole band. The bass is not much fun on your own.

John, it’s so good to see you so engaged with today. Any advice for old farts who can’t move on? (Andrew Loog Oldham)

Who are you calling an old fart? I dunno, Andy, you tell me! Ha ha. He’s done a good job of staying up to date. Andrew, of course, gave me the name John Paul Jones. I was John Baldwin, until Andrew saw a poster for the French film version of John Paul Jones. I thought it ’d look great in CinemaScope, as I wanted to do music for films. I imagined it saying “Music By John Paul Jones”, over the whole screen. I never realised then that he was the Horatio Nelson of America!

I know that you’ve been getting heavily into bluegrass lately – who are some of your favourite bluegrass artists of all time? (Ryan Godek, Wilmington, Delaware)

Apart from Bill Monroe, you mean? Oh, there’s loads. I’m friends with the Del McCoury band, I love that style of classic bluegrass. I love Sam Bush’s Newgrass stuff. And of course there’s Nickel Creek, Chris Feely, Mike Marshall. I love it all, really. One thing I like about bluegrass is that you don’t require amplifiers, drums and trucks. You can pull an instrument out of a box and get on with some instant music making. I carry a mandolin around wherever I go. I also like the fact bluegrass musicians play more than one instrument. There’s a tradition of them swapping instruments. In bluegrass bands I swap between double bass, fiddle and banjo.

One Butthole Surfers anecdote, please? (Dave Grohl)

Ha! I was brought in to produce the Butthole Surfers’ 1993 album, Independent Worm Saloon. I guess it was to give it a heavy rock vibe, but it didn’t work like that. They were actually incredibly hard-working in the studio, but I do recall running up a phenomenal bar-bill at the San Rafael studio. And then there was Gibby [Haynes, Butthole Surfers’ frontman] and his… eccentric studio behaviour. Gibby did one vocal take shouting into his guitar. He held it out in front of his face and screamed at it. Ha! He was trying to find out if it picked up through the pick-ups, which it kind of did. And that was pretty good.

How’s the violin coming along? (Sean, Berkshire)

I started about three years ago. With the guitar, or the piano, you can sound OK quite quickly. With the violin, it takes much longer. Once you get past the first six months of scraping, of muttering to yourself, “What is this fucking horrible noise on my shoulder?” you get the odd musical bit, and you think, ‘Oh, this is starting to get good.’ And you continue with it for a while. I’m getting into country fiddle playing, Celtic folk songs, a bit of swing. Basic stuff, but very satisfying.

Why not record a second ‘Automatic For The People’ with REM? (Franz Greul, Austria)

They haven’t asked me! But doing the string arrangements for that album was a great experience, actually. They sent me the demos of their songs, and we went into a studio in Atlanta, with members of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. They were great songs, something you can really get your teeth into as an arranger. And I’ve been good friends with them ever since.

How did you first meet Josh Homme? And is he still a notorious party monster? (Rob Hirst, Kippax, Leeds)

Well, I think we’ve all calmed down rather a lot. Dave introduced me to Josh at his 40th birthday party. It was a ridiculous themed place where they have jousting with knights. As Dave said, it was like somewhere you’d have your 14th birthday party. Or maybe even your 4th. Anyway, Dave sat Josh and I together for a blind date. Which was reasonably embarrassing for both of us, surrounded by people going “prithee this” and challenging each other to duels. But we survived the trauma and went into the studio the next day, and just started jamming. And I knew immediately it was going to be something special.

If Them Crooked Vultures had Spice Girls-like nicknames what would they be? (Paul Jones, Liverpool)

Dave would be Smiley Vulture. He can’t stop grinning. Josh would be Slinky Vulture. He’s a slinky kinda guy. And I’d be Speedy, I guess. Or Jumpy. So there you go. Smiley, Slinky and Speedy. Or does that sound more like the dwarfs?

I remember you being a pretty funky bass genius back in the day! What memories do you have of those sessions? (Donovan)

The sessions with Don and Mickie Most were great, because we were given a free hand. I usually got leeway, because I was the sort of Motown/Stax specialist, so producers in the mid ’60s would get me in for cover versions of American records, and none of them could write bass parts convincingly enough, so I was London’s answer to James Jamerson, I guess! And I was certainly encouraged to get kinda… funky when I worked with Donovan.

How did it feel to see Jimmy Page and Robert Plant venture off in their own project in the ‘90s without mentioning a word of it to you? (Danny Luscombe, Hull)

Oh yeah, I was pissed off about it. The surprise was in not being told. It’s ancient history now, but it was a bit annoying to find out about it while reading the papers. It came just after Robert and I had been discussing the idea of doing an Unplugged project. Then I’m on tour in Germany with Diamanda Galás, I turn on the TV and see Robert and Jimmy doing it, with someone else playing all my parts! I was pissed off at the time. You would be, woudn’t you? But… it’s all in the past, isn’t it?

Did you listen to much work by Josh Homme or Dave Grohl before you were contacted in relation to joining Them Crooked Vultures, and if so, how did you honestly rate it? (Ralph Ryan, Lisronagh, County Tipperary)

I did like the Foo Fighters and Queens Of The Stone Age, before I’d met either of them. There’s a tendency for people – especially musicians from my generation – to say that there has been this terrible decline in musicianship, that today’s bands haven’t got the chops, blah blah blah. But that’s not true at all. There’s always some people for whom technique on an instrument isn’t necessary. They can get their ideas across without being able to have the chops. But Josh really does have the chops, he just doesn’t feel the need to flash them about all the time. In fact, there were a few riffs he gave me that I had to simplify, because they were bloody difficult to play. I really had to work at it, where he could just flick it off. He is an astonishing musician.

Were you serious when you told Peter Grant that you wanted to jack it in to become choirmaster at Winchester Cathedral? (Brian Fisher, Manchester)

Ha! That was a tongue-in-cheek joke, although I was serious about leaving Led Zeppelin in 1973 unless things changed. But Peter did sort things out pretty quickly. What kind of choirmaster would I have made? A bloody good one! Listen, any way that they’ll pay you for making music is just the best situation in the world. I’d do it for nothing. I don’t care what music it is. I just love it all. The rubbing of notes together. I love it all. I would be very passionate about whatever I decided to do.

What was the worst session you ever did as a jobbing session player? (Adam Burns, Castleford, West Yorkshire)

I generally have fun memories of that time. I’d criss-cross London playing two or three sessions a day, going between Trident and Olympic and Abbey Road and Philips in Marble Arch, you know. You’d be backing Shirley Bassey, Cat Stevens, Lulu, whoever was paying you. The worst experience was a Muzak session. With Muzak sessions, the music was deliberately boring. I distinctly remember one session where I embellished the bass part a little bit, just so that it wasn’t so boring for me to play. They said, “No, you can’t do that. Any interest in the music will distract people’s attention from when they’re meant to be eating.” Or standing in a fucking lift. For fuck’s sake! So I was like, “OK, thanks, bye!”

Medicine

Pairing: L. Jethro Gibbs x gn!reader

Warning(s): Language, mention of a drug/night quill? (i think it is anyway) and being drugged

A/N: I have absolutely no ideas for writing, if you have requests or ideas my ask box is open, or here is a form

“Y/N!” The silver-headed man yelled after you as he ran down the stairs toward the basement.

“No!” You yelled back while giggling loudly.

“Get your pretty little ass over here!”

“Pretty?”

“Pre- yes pretty, you are very pretty now can you come here so I can tell you more about just how pretty you are.”

“Nu uh, you’re gonna give me medicine!” You spat out the last word with small bit of venom.

Jethro knew this would happen. The second the dentist called him to pick you up, he knew the mission of taking care of you after would be like no other.

“I have to give you medicine because the doctor said to baby!”

“Don’t baby me, Leroy.” The gasp that slipped past Jethro's lips had you giggling as you rounded the couch to separate you and your ex-marine boyfriend.

“Thought you wanted me to baby you, isnt that what you said in the car?"

“That was until you betrayed me.”

“It’s just night quill so you can sleep off the anesthetic stuff.”

“No I wanna feel loopy.”

…

It was completely silent after you responded and in your state, that scared you way more than it should’ve. You looked back only to find an empty spot where your boyfriend was chasing you.

“Jetty… Gibby?”

When you tried to tip toe backwards and turn forward again, said man jumped in front of you and wrapped his arms round you.

“Ha!”

“Ahh!”

“Gotcha baby.” He laughed and glanced down to see your face. “Oh come on don’t pout.”

"M' not poutin'."

“Sure you aren't sweetheart, but you’ll thank me when you wake up.”

“That’s what you think.”

“Yes, it is, and if I'm wrong ill just kiss ya and cuddle ya all morning till ya love me again.”

something (not the main moral or even close i’d like to make that clear) i realised while watching the quinton reviews icarly saga is that a lot of the episodes didn’t fully conclude, and i really didn’t like that. they had a narrative conclusion, sure, but someone we were rooting for was still in trouble. the ending of i still psycho always felt off to me, not because i was like 6 and that’s a creepy thing to put on a kids show and what the fuck, but because gibby was still yelling in the chimney. i mean, i was also dealing with exclusion at school so i really didn’t like the idea of “friends not actually wanting to help you” on screen, but like. a conflict of the episode was never resolved. initial icarly did that, but later episodes and shows didn’t. that magic episode from sam & cat? cat was still stuck in a box in the final scene. there wasn’t a satisfying answer as to how to open the box, the next episode just came on and there she was. there could’ve been fun in getting her back and sam ex machina busting it open, but the episode just stopped.

i didn’t like that the characters were still in pain and danger when they should’ve been free. i didn’t like that there weren’t answers or the time taken to meaningfully wrap up episodes. i didn’t like the hopelessness that episodes ended on because of that.

i saw people doing this on twitter and it looked fun :}

[gibbys-brewery]

(...It's a box, with a note on it.)

(On the note, it reads...)

Happy Valentine's Day! (or early VD, or late VD, depending on when I'm sending this.)

Did you know I love you lots? This gift proves how much I love you!

That's a bad line, sorry. I just wanted to give you something for Valentine's Day because I love you.

I maybe spent too much money on it, but who cares? As long as you like it, that's all that matters!

Lots of love, and keep rocking on!

🎸 Trickstar 🎸

(...Inside, there's a cashmere sweater with moon patterns.)

Gibby lifts the sweater. She holds it close. It’s… comforting. She puts it on.

“Thank you Tricky… god, you really beat me to the gift giving huh? Haha… I… have something for you too but… it’s not quite ready yet. I need to make sure it’s perfect. But it’s coming soon.”

Oh my god I’m loosing my mind I have so many thoughts about the Blue Beetle movie

(Under cut bc spoilers)

Everything about Rudy holy shit

Scarab in the burger box, what will it do (Even though I saw it in the trailers it’s still funny)

The first transformation sequence and the way the little arm thingies spirit out, plus the fucking casual/cheery music in the background made me lose it

Also just the fact that Jaime falls down onto the floor like Gibby in that one moment

Project Moon infesting my brain to the point where I was like “Hey this bitch is just Alfonso”

“It’s like Batman, but…if he had ADHD.” “Batman’s a fascist!”

SCARAB CONTROL MOMENT

Also the fact we got Khaji’s name like…much earlier than I expected

The scene where the dad dies and the house is on fire and everything’s going to shit

GRANDMA WITH THE MACHINE GUN

Literally everything about Jaime meeting his dad and almost fucking dies

EVERYTHING ABOUT HOW KHAJI AND JAIME ARE BECOMING CONNECTED MADE ME LOSE MY MIND. LIKE, YOU CAN’T JUST SAY THEIR BRAINWAVES ARE SYNCING AND HOW JAIME NEEDED KHAJI AND EXPECT ME NOT TO LOSE IT

The way the one dude rebels against Victoria for the constant lack of recognition and respect and then immediately dies was brutal

Khaji Da speaking Spanish, and saying “ass” for that matter

Jaime and Khaji’s roles being reversed when they pin down Carapace (I think that’s his name? The red guy) for the second time is just…orgirfji

How Victoria takes advantage of the red guy when he was at his lowest, and upon realizing that, he kills them both while holding the locket with his mother. And the fact that the scene where his mother is telling that “it’s time to go home” and how it parallels the scene with Jaime and his dad, it made me legitimately teary eyed

“I sense a surge of blood in your middle region”

Forgot to add this but THE POST CREDITS SCENE? HELLOO?

↳ @familylightfox asked: When Gibbous came over to Mina that afternoon, she was carrying a box of crayons by the lid with her teeth. It was set down next to the singer's leg that was then gently pawed at. "Mini... Wha cull-er dat?" She pointed to where Light was sitting with his summoned guitar and talking with the hero. "Gibbie make pic-ture."

{➹} – THE MONGOOSE HAD been brushing Wentle when Gibbous came over, or rather she was supervising her daughter as Lyra went between half brushing the feline to looking at Light and her father with child-like anticipation. She would have dropped the brush the moment the two started playing anything, but like her mother a moment later her attention was drawn to Gibbous instead.

Mina smiled down at the toddler, and knelt down to start picking out certain colors from the box. Specifically ones that would let Gibbous draw an accurate picture of Light and his signature instrument, though she doubted the former soldier really cared about the colors. It was the thought that counted more than anything.

"Here we can pick out the colors you'll need," she said, and with each crayon that came out of the box she was sure to explain what it was and where it was on her father. Though she had to wonder if there was a way she could make this all easier for the girl. Maybe she could pick Kintobor's brain later...

my best friend of many many years watched the ducks vs rangers game with me yesterday because she found a rangers hoodie at a thrift store and so i was like okay that’s it you have to watch a game with me and she was like fuck yes are you kidding so i’m going to share some of that experience:

-she ended up rooting for the ducks (thinks they have a funny name)

-thought mason was hilarious (and couldn’t believe he was 19)

-thought gibby was god on earth (it’s because he is)

-thought braden schneider and gibby were hot (i kept saying they were hot so she didn’t really have a choice in that opinion)

-laughed every time someone fell over or crashed into someone

-loved watching guys swear in the penalty box

-has already made predictions for three games tomorrow and is sad that there’s no games today

i’m just glad that after a year of being an online hockey fan i’ve finally recruited an irl to freak out with me she’s such an icon

Hi, I hope you're having a nice day today. I technically have 2 requests prompts, but you can pick if you wanna do both or just one. If you don't want to do either of them that's completely fine too, but both are Wayne (Hylics) x Reader cause there's like barely any of those at all and we all need more of the moon man. Thanks in advance!

-The Reader beings having a nightmare about Wayne and crew dying from an unbeatable enemy, but Wayne tries waking them up to comfort them.

-Wayne and crew along with the Reader, who's a decently powerful fighter, go to face Gibby after he was brought back. Gibby manages to take down the Reader but they also drag Gibby down with them before they fully melt and get sent to the Afterlife. Wayne and crew rush to get to the portal in the Waynehouse to get to the Afterlife.

You. Come Here./lighthearted

Double prompts! Wayne x Reader in: "Night Woes" & "For If I'm Going Down, I Guess I'll Take You With Me."

(Second title based on "The Fruits" by Paris Paloma!)

Night Woes

Flesh and blood swirled at your feet and you couldn't even move, watching your beloved and his friends melt away. Little did you know, you were shaking bad in the bed next to Wayne.

Waking up from the shakes, Wayne sat up and saw you and the fearful look on your face as you slept. They carefully shook your shoulder.

"Hey. Hey, wake up. You're just having a nightmare. [___]!"

You shot up swinging which caused him to back up, almost falling off his bed in the process. After gathering your bearings, you huffed before looking up at Wayne and immediately patting his face and horns, making sure he was still okay.

"Are you alright?" His voice may have been calm but the worry in his eyes was clear.

"Mm. I'm just... glad you're okay." You clung to him, with him patting your back with one hand and digging through their bag with the other for a juice box.

"Take a breather. Here." They gave you the juice box, a straw already set up for you an sat as they watched you drink it down before laying back down.

"Stay with me. Please?" You whisper, looking up at him.

"Of course, baby." He places your head in his lap, gently rubbing your cheek with the back of his knuckles. With warmth around you, you were able to quickly fall back asleep.

｡･:˚:✧｡──────────────｡✧:˚:･｡

For If I'm Going Down, I Guess I'll Take You With Me

The smell of gore was in the air as you and the crew fought, with you facing the brunt of many of Gibby's attacks. His damn smile burning into your memory. It may have taken him a while to fell you, but it wasn't just you going down.

"You really think you can get away from fate that easy?" You grin before grabbing the sides of his face, and with the last of your power as you melted, you crushed his skull like a cup. His body stumbled before crumbling to the ground, melting with you.

"See you on the other side, hon." You grin up at Wayne before the rest of you fell away into the Afterlife. Wayne could only stand in horror and shock before being picked up by Pongorma.

"There is no time to waste. If Gibby is with them, then there will be more trouble. Let's get going." The tall Dark Knight mumbled.

The four ended up quickly back at the Waynehouse, with Wayne leading them to the basement. Jumping in the pool was the easy part, though waiting for the half solid, half liquid mass to spit you into the Afterlife was an issue since it sunk them in so slowly.

You were found lazing on the beach, staring up at the orange sky before being tacklehugged by your moon dear. After some sputtering, flailing and flying sand, you two sat up with him clinging to you.

"You badass! You did it!!" Wayne laughed, squeezing you tight.

"I suppose I did." His giddiness made you smile and look to the others.

"Glad you're okay." Somsnosa pat your head.

"We should rest here for a while. After all of that, I think a nap for some of us is an order." Dedesmuln clapped their hands together, plopping into the sand next to y'all.

Another world-threatening crisis averted, thanks to Wayne, you, and the crew.

Initial Idea Slides

Above is the mindmap of initial thoughts relating to the prompt/subject/goal of 2 by 2 or something relating to Noah’s Ark or Pandora’s Box. The layout above was done by Josie while the one below was done by myself.

Below is the collection of initial ideas for games, the idea generation was split about half and half. The Snake related games were concepts created by Josie while the ones with alternative animals were created by me with the final idea being an even mix of both of our brains. Two of the ideas were influenced by a Minecraft server we play on where a mooshroom and two llamas wandered into the Nether and always seem to be there whenever we return, another one is a riff off of the moobloom one but using a character from the Dungeons & Dragons campaign we play called Gibby who is an ox with god-like abilities somehow.

[africare7]

Script

Since a story is important in this project Lauren and I decided to use Chat box gpt to out-line a story/script. Both of us got two separate scripts that we quite liked though there were some parts that just weren’t so great. I thought it would be good to combine both the scripts in order to take out the parts that didn’t sound so good. Here’s the finished script

(The scene opens on a gateway to The Land of Titles guarded by a llama in high heels called Rosie )

ROSIE: Halt! Who goes there?

(A triceratops called Sludge and a seal called Mr. Puddles approach. Sludge is wearing a backpack)

MR. PUDDLES: Good morning ma’am. We’re here to visit the Land of Titles.

ROSIE: I’m sorry, but no unauthorized visitors are allowed in. Do you have the proper documentation?

MR. PUDDLES: What? The Land of Titles has always been free to enter.

ROSIE: Sorry sir but you need the proper documents or I could charge you 500 gold coins for entry. 

SLUDGE: (mumbles to Mr. Puddles) I thought you said it was free

MR. PUDDLES: 500 gold coins?! That’s outrageous!

ROSIE: Rules are rules. Take it or leave it.

MR. PUDDLES: (recognizes Rosie) Rosie?! What on hell are you doing here?

ROSIE: (sheepishly) I was just trying to make a little extra money

(An ox called Gibby arrives on a floating cloud)

GIBBY: What’s going on here?

ROSIE: (puts on a fake posh accent) I'm simply guarding the gateway to the Land of Titles, as I always do.

GIBBY: (eyeing the llama skeptically) You're not the real guard. You're just a fraud trying to make a quick buck.

ROSIE: (defensively) I am the guard! How dare you accuse me of such a thing!

GIBBY: (shoos the llama away) Get out of here, you fake! (to Sludge and Mr. Puddles) Don't worry, I'll take care of this. (to the llama) And if I catch you pretending to be the guard again, I'll have you thrown in the slammer!

MR. PUDDLES: (to Sludge) Come on Sludge. Let’s go get that title you’ve been dreaming of.

(The llama runs offstage, while Sludge and Mr. Puddles enter the Land of Titles. Gibby floats away in the background)

Yooooo can I request something for mirage?

Like there’s a new female Legend (reader) and nobody knows what she does, maybe once Elliot gains her trusts she hands him a small drone thingy, and it’s completely useless until he gets downed, in which it will provide a full shield all around him. Then Reader comes in “I’ll always have your back friend.”

Idk man this is hella specific it’s totally aight if you don’t write it

AAAAAAA PLEASEEEE!!! I WANTED TO WRITW FOR MIRAGE BUT WAS SO HESITANT!!! okay!

A/L/N: (Your) Apex Legend Name

Y/N: Your Name

Mirage/Elliot Witt x Reader fic

You had noticed Mirage staring at you a bit, then talking to Wraith and Pathfinder and then staring at you again. He didn’t really like you so far. I mean, you could be killing him the next game so, would be terrible to get to know him and then have to kill him to become the apex predator. Or vice versa.

At least that’s how you wanted to view it. You sorta just sat in a corner by yourself. You refused to talk to anybody, these people were murderers like hell you were gonna try and speak to them. Well, it was mostly after Caustic scared you and joked about wanting to suffocate you. You would much rather die in a more painless way. Like being stepped on by Loba? Perhaps? That’s a way you would love to go down by.

“Hello A/L/N.” A chipper voice greeted you, ah, the smiling robot himself. “I can’t wait to fight you.” He grinned. “Let’s hope it doesn’t come to that.” You muttered. “Here you go friend!” Pathfinder shoved his boxing gloves at you with a smile. “Do you see how they change just like my screen?” He asked happily. “Are these electoral or something?” You asked slightly amazed at the attention to detail. “Or something.” Pathfinder said snatching the gloves right out of your grasp. “Bye bye friend.” Pathfinder went back to Mirage and started speaking, although you couldn’t hear them you felt a strange urge that they were talking about you.

The teams were finally announced, you would be on a team with Elliot and Bloodhound. That didn’t seem too bad. You barely knew Revenant and he scared the shit out of you, you’d rather not be in a team with him ever.

You awkwardly went to go try and talk to Elliot, if you found a golden backpack you’d definitely wanna give it to him. “Hi Mirage.” You smiled and waved your hand. “Aha, it’s good to know I’m the first legend you walked up to.” Mirage smirked. “You’re lucky you aren’t on a team with Wraith, she’s demanding.” He joked and shook your hand. “What’s your ultimate A/L/N?” He asked, “Oh, um, I’m not the best at describing things.” You said looking for a tiny drone in your pockets. “Just.. take this.” You said fidgeting with your hands. “Is this like Crypto’s drone?” Mirage asked remembering when he met Crypto. At least you didn’t punch him.. yet.

“Uh, no relation to Crypto’s drones. Just keep it during the battle, ‘Kay?” Mirage studied your small drone before putting it in pocket, when he did you saw a small gold statue. But your drone quickly went on top of it.

Bloodhound walked over to you guys and before you knew it you were grabbing (weak) guns and rushed into a battle with Ajay (Lifeline) and her squad. (Bangalore and Gibby). You had an RE-45 and a… oh you only had an RE-45. It was better than a P2020 though. Right? Right. However Ajay had a Havoc Rifle. You were definitely going to die. You couldn’t tell what the others had, you got a glimpse of a R-99 though. “What guns do you got Mirage?” You asked him, “uhh.. none.” He said and scratched his knee. Oh God, Bloodhound please carry us. Please do all the work, I’ll do anything. I just don’t wanna die. “Uh Hound, you got anything?” You asked disappointed with Mirages answer. “A Rampage and EVA 8.” He said. Lovely. You were gonna do anything you could to keep Bloodhounds shields up, until you found yourself a better gun, once you did, it wouldn’t matter.

You were in the middle of knocking down Gibby when you noticed your drones shield activate. God damn it Mirage we told you to hide so you could just revive us! You finished Gibby and ran to Mirage, and Ajay was there. You were sure she had a level 1 shield, and your evo points were doing you well, you got a blue shield. But you had no backup ammo. You sighed and shot at her anyways. Her Havoc had we downed you. She didn’t finish you though, she seemed more focused on trying to figure out how to get inside of the shield around Mirage. Which gave Bloodhound the opportunity to knock her down which his Rampage. He revived you and you revived Mirage. “Mirage take a gun now that they’re all dead.” You pushed him towards a death box. “Yeah th-thanks.” Mirage said re-charging his shields.

FYI: I forgot to post this sorry :/
