LISTEN The differences in reactions to Hastings smiling fondly at Poirot here are SENDING ME

Japp is just like "I know what you are, Hastings"

and MISS LEMON?? THE KNOWING LOOK SHE IS GIVING HASTINGS!? Like WHEN ARE YOU JUST GOING TO GIVE IN AND KISS HIM, BABE

Haven't been able to continue any of my digital drawing projects because I've been stuck at my parents place and my pc is not here but here's some random sketches I've been doing. I love you Jorji Costava <3

The last one is my interpetation of the inspector as a child because I happened to re-play that one day where that one entrant says she worked with your dad and claims you were a little brat and it got me thinking. I like to think he was some scrawny nerd that was a lot more sensitive than some of the other boys but because being sensitive as a boy isn't allowed in the mid 1900s especially in some small village he kinda put on a rougher exterior and picked fights with kids half his size as an attempt to prove something.

Brackenreid has literally so many kids my god, there are his actual three biological kids, and then there's Higgins, Crabtree, Watts and Mrs. Hart, at LEAST

sorry guys I thought it was really funny that he blew up. I think it’s funny that he broke all his bones. cabanela I love you but also I like seeing you suffer and the entire time I was drawing this piece I was thinking “haha he’s having period cramps”

also I don’t know how his hair works at all

I am unreasonably upset about the fact that I've been forced to accept that Gabriel was a Gerald.

For context, in An Inspector Calls, Gerald Croft is engaged to Sheila Birling when he meets a homeless, struggling Eva Smith in a bar, and essentially in return for a home and money he shows her affection (ahem), then gets rid of her once he no longer has a use for her. Now, obviously this isn't a direct translation, but the essentials are - a Gerald is a character who uses another character, in return for something they need, usually masking the fact that they're using them with affection and love.

And against my will I've had to accept that this is exactly what Gabriel does to Nathalie.

Did I want to think he had potential to be better? Did I think he genuinely cared for Nathalie?? Hell, did I just really really want somebody to care about Nathalie???

Probably all of the above but the point is: he's Gerald. And I cannot - I literally can't unsee it now. Their whole dynamic in S3 is like “oh boohoo I'm sorry I wish you didn't have to use the peacock Miraculous and kill yourself over it but uh I need to use your powers” “yeah no that's fine I'm all good”. Which, given the "Gerald" theorem, I'm assuming leads to the fact that what Nathalie needed, above all, was someone to care about her - and Gabriel came along, as Sheila Birling puts it, "like a fairytale prince", and was so caring and gentle and... Yeah. She fell for him. And. Yeah he genuinely did seem to care like twice. But so did Gerald. Gerald actually admits that he did care for Eva, just not the way that she cared for him, and, uh, not enough to not just dispose of her. So he discards her anyway when she stops being useful.

Leading me neatly to my point.

He starts using the peacock Miraculous the second it's fixed, the slimy bastard, HOWEVER. It runs way deeper than that. Assuming I'm right (which I almost DEFINITELY am), then Gabriel only needed Nathalie while she was useful. She didn't stop being useful in season three - she's still scheming for him, helping him with plan after plan. It's only partway through season 5 that she officially servers ties with him, and starts to actively hinder him.

Nathalie stops being useful when she fails as Safari. And I reckon that's when Gabriel and Tomoe decided she had to go.

(It's painfully, I-was-ugly-crying-over-it obvious in Conformation that Gabriel is fully prepared to let Nathalie die - in the original storyboard, her alliance was encouraging her to sleep, and he's very obviously prepared for this moment - I've made a separate post about it that I'll link if I can find it. However, onto the next bit)

With all of this, there's one thing that sticks out to me - Nathalie didn't see any of it until it was already too late. There could be many reasons for this. But you know who would have seen through it? Whose parents were all loving and perfect until she married the wrong man? Emilie. Emilie, who left behind those videos, which on the surface look innocent, but when you look deeper look like a (love confession???????) AHEM a warning. I reckon Emilie noticed what was going on and realised that Nathalie wouldn't see through Gabriel, so she left those videos addressed to Nathalie (not Gabriel, which surely they should have been - they were about him, after all - unless they were there...) as a warning. I don't think the videos were supposed to be about helping Gabriel, I think Emilie was warning Nathalie to get the fuck out of that house, and to take Adrien with her. Because Emilie knew it'd end like this.

Yes I'm still mad ok give me a break.

Go ahead and send me some questions or ideas you wanna see me throw my two cents in on. If I like your idea I might write something for it. I'm easy enough to inspire. I just might be a little slow to do it.

🍎 • First and foremost this is an 18+ blog. Please keep away if you aren't over 18. I'm not policing what you read or look at I'm just not comfortable with minors in my stuff. I'm too old to be dealing with the kids who wanna be like I was at that age. Hang out with people your age please!

🍏 • If I don't reply to you I might not know what to say or I read it, formulated what I wanted to say, then promptly forgot it and got scared to answer... It's the ADHD... It will happen I apologize 😔

🍎 • But please talk to me! TKDB is my current hyperfixation and I don't have anyone IRL that I can talk to about it. So you guys are stuck listening to me shout into the void anyway, so why not join me?

🍏 • And!!! If you shoot me an ask with a prompt or a thought you wanna share I might be inspired and drop a little blurb based on it! ❤️

🍎 • Things I will write: NSFW, femdom/dom!reader, most kinks including some of the less wholesome ones, polyam/multiple partners, trans characters, sexswapped characters, character x character, reader/mc x character, bat shit insane theories

Last night I watched only a bit of a Inspector Gadget 3d episode and while I do wish to ask about many things, I mainly want to ask why they changed Sophie's name to Penny? Is this not the same girl??

Speaking of famous fans, Ayo Edebiri also loves Endeavour (and British detective shows generally). She deleted her twitter so her tweets about it are gone unfortunately but I did find this, lol:

The last series I binged (or watched a lot of) was… This is really sad, but it’s true… Inspector Morse. My brain is honestly broken. I watched so many detective series and was running out of new ones, so I started going backwards. I’ve seen Miss Marple, Inspector Lewis and Endeavour – the spin-off and the sequel. So I thought I might as well watch the original. It’s so dark inside my mind. These shows are soothing in a weird way – the danger’s not real, it’s kind of familiar but there are little twists. There’s a fun timidity to the British murder mystery. -- The Face, 2022

As it happens, the plot of ‘.world’ bears a very strong resemblance to the Small Beginnings 50th-anniversary audio play ‘Mumbleworld’, released 10 years ago.

Contrary to what the show runner said about having come up with the idea nine years before writing the script for this episode.

Didn’t manage to go to the theatre in June (I’m trying to go once a month) so I’m going twice this month! AND to the cinema! I’m so excited

“Are you having fun there?”

“The DragonLords are too full of their own importance for my liking but what are they doing to do, tell the Dragon Whisperer no?”

“Well Lestrad might,” Vilmor folded her arms and leaned against the doorframe to the hatchery, looking down at where Quenelda was quite contentedly lying on the floor with about seven baby dragons snoozing on her. “But I’m sure Two Gulps can…persuade him.”

“Oh yes, he’s very good at stuff like that,” Quenelda smirked before tapping her hand (well, her fingers on account of a purple hatchling contentedly hugging her arm) on the ground next to her. “Come join us, Cryozen Jr will like it.”

“Well when you put it like that…” Vilmor scratched her own hatchling behind his horns, Cryozen Jr cooing happily, as she settled down next to Quenelda, three dragons promptly climbing onto her as Cryozen Jr wriggled down to lie on her chest, reaching out her hand to hold Quenelda’s. “This is soothing.”

“Very, it feels as if we can just fall asleep…”

****

“Captain Lestrad, you called for me?”

“Doyle, finally. You took your time. The hatchery has been commandeered, and we can't get in!”

“The door is jammed?”

“No, there's a wretched dragon in front of it!”

Two Gulps lifted his head innocently and gave Doyle a toothy grin.

“…Yeah there's nothing I can do.”

“Doyle, you-”

“If you want to take it up with him, Captain, you're more than welcome to.”

****

For @pantsless-glowboy-stan who requested: quenelda (or a different oc of your choice) having a really good day. possibly with baby dragons

leaving secondary school & no longer doing English classes has made me realise that I actually really like English Lit just the stress of a timed essay made me loose my shit so bad that I fully did not want to go to classes for 4 years.
