Kate Beckett - Effigy

A Beckett vid focusing on her mother's murder.

YES, I'm watching Castle now. Among another million things. It is definitely the most brilliant crime show out there at the moment. Period.

This was supposed to be finished before the season 4 premiere (hence why there's not as much S4 angst in it as you'd expect), but then I had computer issues and by the time they were solved, I've lost the inspiration. And then suddenly I decided to get back to it and voila.

The editing is a bit messy, but since I rendered in HD (I don't even know why I did that. NEVER AGAIN.) I had precious little patience to do any re-editing. And I'm not sure if I like the whole look of it but hey. This is my first proper vid since February so please. Bare with me. ;)

And RIP my hard drive. Which had a few of my most beloved (and procrastinated) projects on it.

DON'T OWN ANYTHING. CASTLE is an ABC property. Music belongs to WMG.

"Something happened. Not to you. No, it was someone you cared about. It was someone you loved."

"By the way, it was my mother. She had been stabbed. And the killer was never caught."

"You know what, this isn't about your mother's case anymore, this is about you needing a place to hide. Because you've been chasing this thing so long you're afraid to find out who you are without it."
"You don't know me, Castle. You think you do, but you don't."
"I know you crawled inside your mother's murder, and didn't come out. I know you hide there."

"I can't imagine what it must be like for her. Bringing closure to all those families but never to herself."

"This is for the life that I saved. And this is for the life that I lost."

"Castle, they killed my mother. What do you want me to do here?"
"Walk away. They're gonna kill you, Kate."

"I've let it define me, drive me. It's made me who I am. But now I wanna be more than who I am.
How am I supposed to let go?"

Wow, this was so wonderful I don't think there's enough words in any language to describe it! The pacing, the song, the voice-overs, the scenes you selected were so perfect to depict her tragic story. Pure greateness!
