A random half-assed attempt at drawing LotLot Ramirez as the Hammersmith Ghost. (keep in mind that I attempted at drawing her ghostly costume and I tried my best)
My headcanon is that Cherry makes her the costume for Halloween because she wanted to go as something spooky.

THE HAMMERSMITH GHOST
In 1803, there were ppl who claimed to have been attacked by an angry ghost in Hammersmith, London. Two victims died of fright and a servant was attacked in a graveyard. Local men armed themselves and patrolled the streets. One of the men was Francis Smith, who came across bricklayer Thomas Milwood who was wearing white for work. Smith panicked, believing Milwood was the ghost and shot and killed him.

This depiction of the "Hammersmith Ghost" murder can be found in Middle Temple Library's copy of 'The chronicles of crime; or, the new Newgate calendar' by Camden Pelham, 1887.
In the early 19th century a number of people claimed to have seen and even been attacked by a ghost in the Hammersmith area. The ghost was believed to be the spirit of a suicide victim who had been recently buried in Hammersmith churchyard. In January 1804 A local man, Francis Smith decided to take matters into his own hands and took his gun with him to find the ghost and put an end to his reign of terror. Here is sadly where things took a tragic turn.
While looking for the ghost Smith encountered local bricklayer, Thomas Millwood who was dressed in the traditional all white attire of his trade. Unfortunately for Millwood during this time ghosts were believed to dress in all white which was the colour of the linen shrouds that the dead were buried in. He had in fact already been mistaken for the ghost on a previous occasion and his worried wife had suggested that he should perhaps wear an overcoat to cover his clothes.
"Thomas, says I, as there is a piece of work about the ghost, and your cloaths [sic] look white, pray do put on your great coat, that you may not run any danger".
He didn't however, listen to his wife's warning and on encountering Smith on his return from visiting his mother and sister who lived locally he was shot in the jaw and was sadly killed.
This illustration is by "Phiz" who is probably best known as the illustrator of many Charles Dicken's works including David Copperfield, Martin Chuzzlewit and Bleak House.

Hammersmith Ghost: The Ghastly Tale of the London Haunting that Led to Murder
Through November and December of 1803, London was seized by pure terror. The Hammersmith district had been plagued with sightings of a macabre-looking ghost. Every night, reports of a malevolent apparition flooded the police station. According to most accounts, the specter was determined to frighten anyone nearby. It was described as wearing a white shroud or calfskin and having large glassy eyes. One of the most alarming encounters concerned an elderly woman and her younger, pregnant friend. The two women were allegedly so scared upon seeing the ghost that they died of fright in their beds a few days later. Another sighting occurred and caused a wagoner to lose control of his horses. His 16 passengers were injured. Finally, a brewer named Thomas Groom claimed to be strangled from behind while strolling through a churchyard. After grappling with his assailant, Groom turned around in time to see the ghost vanish behind a row of tombstones.
Local speculation eventually traced the ghost to the restless spirit of a man who had slashed his own throat 12 months prior; as a suicide case, his soul was unable to rest peacefully, so the theory went. But skeptics in the village believed they were being victimized by a prankster, and quickly formed a vigilante group.
On December 29, members of the group, including night-watchman William Girdler, spotted a shrouded figure lurking about the area. The group gave chase; halfway into their pursuit, the figure dropped his shroud and escaped.Â
Four days later, everything changed.
Thomas Millwood, a 32-year-old plasterer, was returning home along Black Lion Lane on the evening of January 3, 1804. Having just come from his parentsâ home, Millwood was still wearing his white work clothes: an apron, waistcoat, and trousers. One of the vigilantes named Francis Smith spotted Millwood and immediately shouted: âDamn you. Who are you and what do you want? Iâll shoot you if you donât speak!â Without waiting for a response, Smith fired two gunshots, one of which hit Millwood in the face and killed him instantly.
Hearing the shots from her house, Anne Millwood called out her brotherâs name in the street but did not get an answer. She ran into the direction of Black Lion Lane and found him sprawled across the ground, covered in blood. Once it became evident that Millwood was the victim of mistaken identity, and that Smith had fired his gun in haste, Smith surrendered to police. Millwoodâs body was taken to the Black Lion Inn and examined by the local surgeon, where it was confirmed that a bullet wound to the lower left jaw and subsequent spinal damage had been the cause of death.
Two days later, a man named John Graham came forward and admitted to being the Hammersmith âghost.â Graham stated that he had created the ruse to scare his apprentices who had been frightening his children with ghost stories. Still, his reasoning did not explain why unrelated people had been attacked. Unsure about how to deal with him, the judges granted him bail while they deliberated. No records of further legal action against Graham exist.

Case #002: The Hammersmith Ghost Murder (1804)
In the early 1800s, the people of Hammersmith, a small village on the outskirts of London at the time, were gripped by fear. Locals claimed to have seen a ghost roaming the streets at night, described as a tall, pale figure dressed in white, with eyes like burning coals. Some said it attacked people, while others claimed it just appeared silently before vanishing.
The sightings spread enough that armed patrols of local men began searching for it after dark.
On the night of January 3, 1804, a man named Francis Smith encountered a figure he believed to be the ghost. Without asking questions, Smith raised his shotgun and fired.
The figure wasnât a ghost. It was Thomas Millwood a local bricklayer wearing his white work clothes.
Smith was arrested and tried for murder. The trial made headlines, raising a bizarre legal debate: could someone claim they acted reasonably if they genuinely believed they were shooting a ghost?
The court ruled no. Smith was found guilty of murder, though his sentence was later reduced.
As for the ghost? Sightings stopped after the incident. No explanation was ever confirmed about who, or what, people had been seeing.

Love & Other Surprises by JJK/ @trenchcoatsandtimetravel (Post-S7 | Getting Together | 4K | Teen): After going to collect Christopher from Texas, Buck and Eddie turn up to the firehouse wearing wedding rings. Everyone is understandably confused.

Sweet Talk by Daisies_and_Briars/ @cal-daisies-and-briars (Post-S7 | 6K | Teen): Eddie asks to crash at the loft while Christopher is gone, struggling to be on his own. Only problem? There's only one bed, and no couch.

đ„I didn't know (that it could be good) by rainbow_nerds/ @rainbow-nerdss (Post-S7, FWB | 27K | Explicit): They're friends, that's all there is to it. Until Eddie lets himself into Buck's apartment unannounced, and finds him in a compromising position. That should be nothing, just something to laugh about down the line, except afterwards, it's like a switch has flipped, and neither of them can get it out of their minds. The solution? They need to get it out of their systems. Just one time, and things will go back to normal. But one time turns to two, which turns to more nights spent together than apart, and still, they haven't actually spoken about what any of this means for them. They're still just friends, right?

For months they've been isolated and safe. But the arrival of some new players, the search for some missing loved ones, will shake everything up and put their little team in jeopardy.
Podfic
This Mortal Coil (Shuffle) by knuckledusters/ @danhalen // fic eirabach/ @eirabach (S6E11: In Another Life | 2-2.5h | Mature): Maddie was never supposed to be Buckâs mother. Eddie was never allowed to be his anything. But three minutes and seventeen seconds later, here they are. [Or, Maddie and Eddie wait, bond, and remember.]
Re-read
đ„ like a bird stealing bread out from under your nose by Daisies_and_Briars/ @cal-daisies-and-briars (Post-S7, Fix-It | 21K | Mature): If youâd asked Eddie back in May what rock bottom looked like, it was his son leaving him. That felt like it; everything ruined so entirely that there was no way to ruin it further. Thereâs always more to lose.
đ„ situations, circumstances, miscommunications ( i just may like some explanations ) by heartbeatdiaz / @lonelychicago (Didn't Know They Were Dating | 4K | Teen): "You didn't know?" Eddie asks, calmer but not less confused. He frowns. "How could you not know?" "You never said anything?" Buck tilts his head to the side. "We were dating?â âI guess not,â Eddie sighs. His heart is beating a little faster, an unpleasant buzz beneath his skin as he all but chokes on a feeling he canât quite nameâ it could be hurt or disappointment or maybe a mix of both. In that moment, he knows three things very clearly. 1. Buck is going to be the death of him. 2. He is in love with the most dense, most oblivious man on planet Earth. 3. He is too gay and, honestly, too old for this shit.
How Come You Didn't Tell Me We Were Dating? I Didn't Know Either! by Sonayesul (Didn't Know They Were Dating | 6K | General): âOmigod, Iâm in love with Buck,â Eddie said, burying his face in his hands. âI didnât mean to cause a crisis,â Frank said. âIâm in love with Buck.â Eddie repeated. âI should not have assumed your relationship with him,â Frank continued on. âIâm in love with Buck.â Heâs like a broken record. âMaybe we should end early today.â Frank suggested and Eddie weakly nodded. ~ In which case, Buck and Eddie have been dating for six months. Except neither of them got the memo.
