Frank and Karen:
Meanwhile Matt:
hope they'll make an episode in ddba s2 where matt is fighting the bad guys but every twenty minutes he stops to check the vatican's live to see if they have elected the new pope

So I’m INSANE about this shot. I clocked immediately there was so much going on and had to rewatch it, now I’m babbling and trying to do film analysis
After multiple scenes throughout the season using that super cool switch-up in focus and aspect ratio to show when Matt has his hearing focused somewhere else, in this case when we see Matt tilt his head, it’s to show us his split focus.
He’s talking to Karen yes and he’s listening to her, but he’s verrrrry interested in Frank’s reaction and he’s locked in on it. And we’re meant to be too- we spend so long focused on Frank. Seriously it’s such a long shot.
Matt and Karen are talking while Frank isn’t reacting in a traditional sense, but they’re out of focus; it’s all about Mr Castle right here, and his definitely-not-reacting reaction. But I bet a heartbeat doesn’t lie.
in fanfiction we must sometimes ask ourselves not if he would do that but under what conditions would he would do that
rewatching the punisher and the kastle elevator scene is my pride and prejudice rain confession scene actually
how it feels to wake up with “i heard your heartbeats”
Yes.
years later and i still think about that tps2 scene with karen’s shoes. everyone’s freaking out but the guy in the morgue was just happily skipping around in those heels, and Frank—of course, of all people—just happens to notice while he’s in the middle of escaping with Madani.
in my head, after all that, frank finds out about the shoes from madani and either 1) goes on some mission to get the heels back from the guy, but is thoughtful enough to swap them out with another pair, or 2) just buys karen a new pair, way comfier and definitely expensive.
then he just casually sneaks them into her apartment with a note that says, “owed you a pair”

forgive me father for sometimes i just say things
It says a lot—a lot, a lot—that Karen and Frank didn’t get closer than a couple feet from each other this whole episode. The chemistry is too strong and would’ve blown up the “triangle” once and for all, let’s be honest here.
