TV Lesbians I Love 💕

Elizabeth "Mac" MacMillan from Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries

Played by Australian actress Tammy MacIntosh

Doctor MacMillan was very intelligent. She dressed smartly in men's suits, pushed back against bullies when necessary, and offered her medical skills when Phryne Fisher needed.

She's the best historical side character I can think of where their sexuality or appearance on the show wasn’t written to steal attention from the main characters as a flag toting “gay character”. They ALLOWED her to be truly a side character and not just a token rep, and she felt so much more real because of it. It was BECAUSE of her understated nature (but still not disguised lesbianism) that I felt such a connection when watching her. And in the episodes that were central to an old female lover, or addressing her tenuous private life, Phryne was wonderful to her. They had the most fun, flirty, and respectful relationship.

What I'm saying is, we need more characters like Doc Mac! 😭 And I'm also saying ya'll need to watch Aussie TV 🙌

Sophie Okonedo and her insane chemistry with women is something that can be so personal.

What is it about the role of Phryne Fisher that originally intrigued you?

“She’s the ideal woman, really. She’s like the woman every woman would like to be, I think, and every man would like to be with… And lots of women would like to be with her, too.”

- Essie Davis, (2020) Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears Q&A (x)

All in one place:

A masterpost of episode-related fics for Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries.

(Note: Apparently, Tumblr only allows 100 links per post, so I've split the original post into three posts)

Season 1 masterpost

Season 2 masterpost

Season 3 masterpost

Featuring: Fics in chapters of collections + fics that aren't tagged with the most common episode tags. In other words, fics that won't show up if you look at an episode's tag on AO3.

This isn't a side-eye at the way authors choose to post, I simply want to have all the episode-related fics I love in one place, especially for after rewatches :D

I'll be updating this post, so if you see a reblogged version, click through to the original post to see any new additions. [Updated 07/01/2022]
