Love that Deke Shaw was introduced as this somewhat cunning, a little bit cutthroat survivor out for himself, and then the minute he was free from his oppressed dystopian future he flipped a switch and was like "finally I can be the lovable idiot that God intended me to be".

The haunting ancient Celtic carnyx being played for an audience. This is the sound Roman soldiers would have heard their Celtic enemies make.

Imagine delgado!master and fifteen with a similar dynamic to the one with 3. Except 15 is not afraid of telling everyone out loud that the Master is his ex who is only doing that to get his attention. The Master is very mad about this. Kate would just be like 'yeah my father used to have some suspicions'. And if Jo were to be there for whatever reason, she would say something like 'was it supposed to be a secret?'.

In 2017, American film researchers recovered “Something Good – Negro Kiss,” a short film depicting a playful kiss between a Black couple which had not seen the light of day for more than a century. A long-forgotten artifact from the earliest years of American film, the sweet, humanizing vignette, produced by the Selig Polyscope Company, makes a startling contrast to the overwhelmingly racist and blackface-ridden contempory portrayals of African Americans. Four years later in 2021, archivists in Norway, halfway across the world, identified a sister short in their collections—an extended alternate cut which reveals more of Chicago stage performers Gertie Brown and Saint Suttle’s vaudeville-like routine, a theatrical, hot-and-cold romantic dynamic between two lovers which parodies the popular and controversial short “The Kiss” (1896). Both films, which had previously been lost, were known from entries in old motion picture catalogs but had been assumed to be era-typical, anti-Black “race films” until their rediscovery in the 21st century. Together with its more famous sibling, which has since been inducted into the Library of Congress’ National Film Registry, this alternate version of “Something Good” represents the first-known instance of Black intimacy ever captured on-screen.
SOMETHING GOOD [Alternate Version] (1898) Directed by William Selig
