Here you will find piano playing, art, engineering explanations and idiot brothers. Avatar is a collective effort between mun (sailing-on-a-puddle), finituniverse13 and Roger Hargreaves. Also thanks to tracyislandinmymind for coming up with my username.

I was offered the wisdom of 'you could fold the wings up'. No, she's still not going round the drive thru.
A Pod would have done, but the car park had cars in it and I couldn't take the squash cars for the sake of breakfast.
Tumblr media
On approach to wake up a few sleepy heads with a little VTOL alarm clock 🫶🏻 otherwise known as a drop off at the hospital.
(And then there was a quick jaunt out of the big bird for Alan and I to pick up breakfast because Virg can’t get her ‘round the drive thru 😌)

Please remove the pizza with so much (vegan) cheese from Two's control panel. Failure to do so will result in loss of shotgun rights.
Particularly looking forward to reviewing the playback footage of @ilikebigshipsandicannotlie @realrocketboy @thunderbird-3-best-bird and I attempting to inhale an entire piece of pizza each mid-suit up 😂
(I feel like Alan has an unfair advantage here. Although Virg is gonna come along and tell me to try it backwards… it’s always during dinner. Always)
Anyway, in the first rescue of what my squid sense tells me is going to be a long and busy weekend, Thunderbirds are chewchewchewohmygodwhysomuchcheese go! 🐠

It's ok. I've found him.
At least he didn't stick to 'not elaborating' so I know what I need to fix!
Tumblr media
You would think after over twenty years of brotherhood and living with me, Scott would learn not to leave his room unlocked whilst leaving the island for the weekend.
Yes, this is under the house right under his glorious spa bathroom.
No, I will not be elaborating at this time 🙂‍↔️

Stop it stop it now.
Because I will have to fix it when sewage slowly seeps over the island!

People and other species of Tumblr I give you my brothers, happily quoting Prode and Prejudice. People say I'm the arty soppy one.
Got to disagree on the Elizabeth and Fitzwilliam right at the start, we can't have him refusing to dance when "more than one lady was in want of a partner."
I would have saved you from the volcano. Honest. Or I'd have got Max and Fritzy to rescue you.
Do you have any OTPs Scott? 🥰 who! why!
Mav & Charlie, obviously (shut up Gordon)
Uh… who else…
Elizabeth & Fitzwiliiam, always rooting for them
Beatrice and Benedick, their banter is top notch
And my real life OTP I’ve been rooting for for the best part of a decade?
Gordon and Penelope

On it
[HOT] 🔥 Hot posts in the last 24 hours for #ScottTracyThirst
Be warned - it’s got a little bit toasty in here 🥵
@ScottyThaHotty
HE’S HAD NO COMPLAINTS? HE GENUINELY THOUGHT THAT WAS A POSSIBILITY???
@ThunderbirdScone
WHO wakes up next to SCOTT TRACY in the morning and even THINKS of complaining?????
@MrsSTracy2B
In the distance, the sound of hundreds of desperate fics being thirsted into existence that must include him using the words ‘generous’ and ‘considerate’ and must not include his clothes.
@ThunderDrought
Oh Scotty, of course you’re generous and considerate 🥵OF COURSE 🥵🥵🥵
@VirgilsTreeTrunks
Sorry, I’m gonna need proof here 🕵️‍♀️ Solid proof. About the weight of one S Tracy.
@FABegging
Scott Tracy, destroying the fandom’s peace one comment at a time #GenerousAndConsiderate
@ScramjetsAndSerenades
Generous *makes note* Considerate *restrains self* No complaints *screams into the abyss*

It needs to be sung with passion! Which you can do when you want to.
You walk into a bar - what kind of person immediately catches your eye?
2. Would you ever do a long-distance relationship?
3. Do you still remember your first-ever crush?
4. What does your cologne smell of?
5. What’s the most romantic thing you’ve ever wanted to do but haven’t yet?
1. Nobody, considering I’ve just walked into a bar. Am I out cold? Concussed?
2. Mmmmmh… I’d give it a think.
3. Perhaps 🫶🏻
4. “Warm, beach evenings as the sun goes down on a hot summer’s day. Sea salt, musk, sugar cane and sun kissed skin.” Bold for a little spray bottle but we all gotta have dreams, right?
5. Recreate that scene from Titanic (yes, that one).

We can't fit a decent size screen in Four for the film fest. Got to be based in Two.
Though we do need those speakers for when @squidsinashirt breaks into the over dramatic version of My Heart Will Go On.

Is there a piano nearby? We can do an acoustic version
Tumblr media
Not pictured: the morphine pump on my other arm. The nurses took away my target board and throwing knives. Apparently I've had enough of the good stuff they're not sure about my aim. My aim is just fine, thank you very much!

The next chapter in the MAX baking saga:
Tumblr media
He's moved on to making savoury recipes. However, there is one problem with gyozas, you need delicate fingers to make them, which MAX does not have. So he made a large batch of dough and filling before looking up at me expectantly. I then spent far too long individually making each one.
Tumblr media
He is very proud of the final product, though.
(To everyone on the island, please help yourself. MAX has made plenty.)

I would be very proud to be the uncle of said child. Just like I was of my topiary.
Will your first child be named Scott?
Do you think the world needs another Scott Tracy?
Rhetorical question, ThirstButts, don’t answer that.

It could not be a Tracy. It's 2060, we've adopted many naming conventions. Though I think it's likely Gordon will legally change his name to something to do with the sea, so it could, if following tradition, be called Scott Loves-The-Ocean. That would be excellent.

I am very pleased to see the bag is labelled to ensure suitable medical treatment. With coffee 😁

JUST SO YOU KNOW I WAS VERY PROUD OF MY TOPIARY
Hello fellow TreasureNotTrash forum member. Any good finds in the mines recently?
As a responsible member of International Rescue, I must insist that nobody enters any active WURM mine. There is nothing under there that is worth tangling with something that dangerous.
(Hello fellow Raccoon, got a few live bids going, DM me ✌🏻🦝)

These are definitely things I'd have in my toolbox. It could do with a tidy though, however they could be in the middle of a Situation.

Finding this in the server room made my day
