Huh, so after setting everything up (Even used the Hai Gesture/Expression package in order to not fuck it up manually)it was still only registering the empty and default boxes, with it randomly cycling between the two of them. 

I have no idea why I censored the first image but: the box with the animation name didnt have a motion assigned to it, so I tried getting rid of the warning by assigning it one. After doing so the box was being active, but nothing was changing in the scene nor the animation preview you can pull up when you go to the animation inspector. 
I'm stumped. 
Also I'm not sure how quickly the blue line should move, but it stays in the same place for a while(more than a minute) and then jumps to a further spot.
