#Letters from a Dead Man

[thezestyicecube]

I'm sorry to everyone who followed me for transformers, but I am incapable of being consistent. So, enjoy some art inspired by Dead Man's Letters, a depressing movie but if you're in the right mood, an interesting experience. I really enjoyed how alien the gasmasks made the characters in the movie, and I wanted to so a similar thing.

Flash warning below this!

Listing my favorite things about Watson's first letter to Holmes in Baskervilles cause I love this format SO SO MUCH:

"My dear Holmes" ily standard letter greeting <3

How extensive he is in setting the scene. "Hey ik you told me to be brief and you don't really care about this but the views are SO lovely and I care about them so you WILL experience them as if you were here. Deal with it"

The delightful confirmation that watson STILL won't let sherlock live down that he used to be a geocentrist. King behavior. I like to think he pulls that card every time holmes gets a lil too cocky

ALL THE GOSSIP SHARING

The genuine care watson has for literally everyone around him and how he expresses it. Ily watson <3

"You would find him an interesting study" GODD this little domesticity of how well they know each other is everything to me

RIP WATSON YOU WOULD HAVE LOVED THE CONCEPT OF SHIPPING

This man is such a romantic. Very important to the case that Sir Henry and Miss Stapleton shared some most intimate looks

I bet he reads Jane Austen

"See, Holmes, I know you told me to never leave Sir Henry but!! Have you considered!!! I CANNOT be a third wheel they're SO cute together!!! Unrelated but I already appointed myself as the wedding planner. This is helping us in the case."

"You are aware that I am not a very sound sleeper" fuck!! FUCK!!!

A mother's word for word transcription of the imaginary phone call her four-year-old made to Santa Claus in 1911.

(source: The Harbor Beach Times, December 22, 1911.)

Through some outrageous case of serendipity I found a recording of another phone call this same child made 60 years later. Though I have to say his choice of conversational partner is a definite downgrade from the first call.

I am a SLUT for unique book formats. Anything. Even just a unique form of storytelling that has the format of a normal book. Gimme a normal book where the narrator is in love with the reader. Gimme a weird book where it’s compiled short stories not in chronological order and there are different ways to order them to make a big story. Gimme MORE WEIRD BOOKS PEOPLE DO YOU HEAR ME

Wow. 2025 is learning about your own childhood trauma. Today I had confirmed to me something that I already knew but didn't know how to articulate: I am the scapegoat child of two narcissistic parents. They can't handle me pushing back so they discredit and deliberately tarnish my reputation so nobody will find me credible ever again.

The pipeline from scapegoat to black sheep is real and it all makes sense that nobody respects anything I say as an adult, even if I am the most qualified person to say it. I was also put down in front of random strangers and my flaws were verbally broadcast so widely that parents didn't want me to be friends with their kids and boys were scared to date me or didn't bother because they heard I was "mean and a loser". I found this out because one of them actually told me this! Very interesting.

If Ejojo has a million fans, then I am one of them. If Ejojo has ten fans, then I am one of them. If Ejojo has only one fan then that is me. If Ejojo has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth. If the world is against Ejojo, then I am against the world.

I sprang to my feet, for the expression upon the millionaire's face was fiendish in its intensity, and he had raised his great knotted fist. Holmes smiled languidly and reached his hand out for his pipe.

“Don't be noisy, Mr. Gibson. I find that after breakfast even the smallest argument is unsettling. I suggest that a stroll in the morning air and a little quiet thought will be greatly to your advantage.”

Holmes mouthing off against the evil millionaire is so entertaining

is my brain just straight up telling lies to me again

Welp I feel awful

So I been trying to figure out my gender for a while but the one thing that I’ve always came back to is that I’m a man, and so I told my mom this (for some context I have said I was using like they/them or she/they pronouns before but wouldn’t ever correct them because they would always say it’s hard when they would never use the right ones and I just stopped at a certain point) and so I told my mom how I wanted my hair and she asked why and I told her because I identified as a man and wanted it short again and she legit said “fine but I’m not calling you a he” and like I knew she wouldn’t she never did and she says she supports me being me but hearing that from her really does upset me and makes me feel awful

i know hoyo is setting up rhine to have good intent and whatever in her trying to 'save' khaneri'ah or whatever; but i REALLY hope they stay with the cruel persona thats been built up for her. because it would be so wonderful to see a character who had good intent in the beginning just get absolutely corrupted; with the inability to ever go back to that prior state purely because of what had happened. also because there is NO way in her turning back after all that shit

[autumnoakes]

also i do still love the idea of swapping claire and leon's re2 scenarios but i cannot help but think that the scene with sherry and chief irons would have been a LOTTT worse with leon instead of claire
