☆ . · . miguel bernardeau, twenty-one, male, he / him . · . ☆ fitzwilliam 'fitz' phénix-alvarez lives in that huge mansion over there! no, not that one. look for white stucco walls & terracotta shingles and that’ll be it. the nhl defenseman has offered occasional glimpses of soft yellow walls and an impressive collection of plants in the background of social media posts, but all of that is nothing compared to seeing the opulence in person. they’ve remained protective as ever since moving to tercet court two months ago, but it seems like they might’ve gotten a little more mistrustful too. maybe that’s why they’re rumored to have such a distant relationship with everyone else who lives on this street. ☆ . · . ooc info: ollie, they / them, 21, est . · . ☆ career claim: cale ma/kar.

BASICS

Full name: Fitzwilliam Phénix-Alvarez Nickname: Fitz Birth date: September 29th Languages: English, Spanish, Quebecois Francois Hometown: 

PHYSICAL

Age: 21 Weight: 196 lbs Height: 6′2″ Body build: athletic, lean Eye color: grey-blue Faceclaim: Miguel Bernardeau Glasses or contacts: neither 

Tattoos: a raven in flight over his left shoulder blade, monochromatic vines winding up his left bicep

Scars: most predominantly a thin scar near the base of his neck where a skate slashed him when he was fourteen ; several other smaller scars of less note, especially on his hands --- much less noticeable

PERSONALITY

Good personality traits: observant, calculating, protective Bad personality traits: mistrustful, dishonest, aggressive 

Fitz comes across as very confident and in control, and at ease in his skin. The truth couldn’t be farther from it. He works hard to put forward the easy front he does --- and some days he can’t tell which one is more real. He has a dishonest smile that masquerades as honest, and a tendency to manipulate those around him when necessary to shed suspicion off himself. He can be almost charming at times, at least extremely amiable. Despite all this, Fitz is not rash or impulsive -- in fact everything he does is carefully calculated, though he goes to great lengths so it does not come across as so. The one place he feels truly effortless is on the ice.

He finds it hard to truly allow people close to him and to really see beyond the most superficial layers of himself. Furthermore, there is a deep-seated fear of not being enough and being forgotten ; he finds it easier to not let anyone close so there’s less chance of this happening.

THE STORY ( i rly was gunna try to write this nice and eloquently but... u get this instead 😔 )

— fitz was born to up and coming spanish actress reyna alvarez in chicago. the result of a messy one-night stand, but reyna ultimately decided to keep the baby. he is indeed named after fitzwilliam darcy from pride and prejudice bc his mother’s first breakout role was in a film adaptation of the book and she loved the book after reading it. how unfortunate for him.

— his birth father was never in the picture, but the man he would come to know as his father came into the picture a year or so after his birth. already one of the top architects in north america, paul robert phenix was in chicago for a conference and he and reyna fell in love. fitz has been told it’s was all very romantic. so then the happy family moved to pittsburgh where his father’s architecture firm was based.

— despite growing up with two parents who raked in a fair amount of cash, they made sure nothing was just given to fitz. they’d both had their humble beginnings and big believers in tough love, they made sure not to spoil their son. they did however make sure he was sheltered from the media when it poked around and the two things they did pay for without question were his education and sports.

— he started playing hockey when he was six after seeing a pens game on tv while they were out at dinner and knowing he just had to do it --- and never stopped. he got recruited to the us national team development program when he was sixteen and spent his last two years of high school in michigan living with a billet family most do who are with the program, which gave him a huge sense of “normalcy.” but really he was far from normal, his development taking great steps over those two years leading up to his draft year.

— queue the cale ma/kar career claim lads aka all the hockey development & logistics u can probably skip if u don’t care laksdjf: 

 one year before graduation and a draft, he vocally committed to playing at university of massachusetts - amherst. he went fourth overall to the la kings in the 2017 draft ( yeah technically irl that pick belonged to the avs but sh ), and proceeded to remain loyal to his commitment and play two years at umass despite his new top five prospect status. he was put into a first pair role from the start of his freshman year ( 2017-18 ), was a huge part in bringing the umass team up from the bottom of the standings. he plays for team usa in world juniors 2017 and 2018.

his sophomore year ( 2018-19 ), they make it all the way to the frozen four. fitz gets announced as the hobey baker winner and the day after they get knocked out of the tournament. not long after that he signs his entry contract with the kings and finishes out the season with them. he scores his first nhl goal on his first shot in game 3 of the first round of playoffs irl the kings don’t make playoffs but again shh. they get knocked out in the first round and fitz goes home and trains harder than ever.

he come back to kings training camp the next season ( 2019-20 ) more determined than ever to make the team. he does so out of camp and has an incredible rookie campaign. he gets injured in december and misses a few games but is back mid-january. fitz is given the calder ( award that goes to the best rookie in the nhl ) at the end of the season. technically cale hasn’t won this yet but we all know he will.

— la is a bustling city and fitz is a fan of one night stands : he just doesn’t feel like he has time for a relationship and hookups scratch that itch. he’s not an asshole about it, really. there is typically that understanding that this is a one time, no strings attached thing. but this one girl he sleeps with in march obviously does not get this memo and continues to not get the memo. she starts seriously stalking him in the following months and eventually he gets a restraining order against her ( use ur imagination kids ). he’s not really comfortable staying in his own apartment downtown for the time being though after he still sees her around. he stays with a teammate until the season ends, which then brings us to his connection to tercet court.

— paul robert phenix, now world reknowned architect, had a hand in designing several of the homes on tercet court, including one in the style of old money spanish mediterrianian villas that he designed with his wife in mind to be their new home. fitz’s mother had loved the house and moved in for a few years after the court opened but with her taking fewer roles up in the movie industry and getting exceedingly more lonely, she decided to embrace the more nomadic livestyle of her husband and moved out about a year and a half ago. since then the home stood vacant ( though certainly still cared for by several paid landscapers and maids ) until fitz’s dilemma arose a few months ago.

— a few phone calls and a begrudging agreement to pay the extremely steep taxes on the place for the year ( again, tough love and fitz may be a pro-athlete but he’s still making less than a million a year with his entry level contract ), and fitz moved in about two months ago ( say mid-may ).

MISC

— tri-lingual. father is french-canadian and his mother is spanish. needless to say he grew up a little confused. that worked itself out soon enough though. uses he uses quebois french in-season kind of frequently to talk to a couple teammates. really only uses his spanish to talk to his mother and family.

— since moving in fitz has filled the mansion with plants. he absolutely does not seem like a plant guy but he is... absolutely loves it. his major at umass was kinesology bc he thought it would be the most helpful and knew he wasn’t going to graduate but he snuck in some out-of-major classes on horticulture. truly just likes plants a lot. they don’t judge him.

— probably set up his own puck shooting pad in the backyard. why not there’s enough space. he had to retrieve a couple pucks from the bottom of the pool though which has been good incentive to not miss the net lmao. he also has revamped one of the rooms in the house to have synthetic ice.

— runs in the morning before it gets hot. skates a few days of the week in the afternoon. home gym in the house is definitely a perk but he prefers to work out with others because it feels more productive.

— probably drives like. a range rover.

— offensive defenseman. likes to jump up in the rush and is good at break out passes as well as zone entry. earned his place quarterbacking the first powerplay towards the end of the season. he can be quite physical when he needs to be though and don’t ever go after his goalie. ( his nhl.com player page )

— he’s not a recluse by any means, but he has no desire to built connections in tercet court so probably hasn’t actively reached out. they’re likely to have met outside of the small community or if your character forcibly came and introduced themselves. or if they knew each other already mayhaps??

— oh and he’s bi. like really really bi. obv not advertised given his career path but he’s not having some crisis over it either. it just is. probably has a stack of nda’s next to the condoms ready to go at anytime alsdkfj.

[bi-apps]

Accepted - Dorcas Meadowes (SAW)

ashleyinwanderlust

submitted: Dorcas Meadowes Application

OOC Information:

Name/Age/Timezone- Ashley ( or Ash ), 25, PST

Activity Level- Currently about a 6/10. I work full-time so my activity fluctuates during the week. I’m most active Friday through Monday, but sometimes I’m around a lot midday if it is a slow at my work. Plus, I’m usually always around on mobile for plotting and chatting.

Ships/Anti-Ships- Chemistry and angst. To be honest, I’m just a real big sucker for the Dorcas / Voldemort rivalry I’ve built up in my head.

Did you read the rules? Yes, I did! :)

IC Information:

Character Name- Dorcas Ophelia Meadowes ( click for old inspo blog )

Age- 22, going on 23.

Occupation- Hit Witch

Traits:

( 3 Positive )

+ Headstrong || Dorcas is incredibly self-disciplined. In her life she has never been known for being stagnant. Both physically and physiologically, she constantly pushes herself passed her limitations in a daily stride to become better. It’s no easy feat, but it is one she is constantly proud of herself for pushing forward despite the obstacles.

+ Empathetic || When someone around her is in pain, Dorcas knows it. That pain becomes her pain. At first it was overwhelming, but over the years she has taken these whirlwind of emotions and turned them into something a little more tangible and far more understandable. She is a woman of action, so it only seemed logical that she try to combat the pain any way she could. Admittedly, she sees her empathy as a weakness, but it is a really important barrier; a vital form of protection that she needs to keep her feet firmly planted where they are and to distinguish her from her enemies. + Protective || As a hit witch, Dorcas is a natural protector. It’s an innate trait that she has always noticed surging at the surface of her being. That desire to protect those around her intensifies whenever dealing with her friends and members of the Order of the Phoenix, who she has deemed her makeshift family. When it comes to them, Dorcas is completely selfless. They are the people she reminds herself to be strong for; to fight a little harder for; to be strong for and refuse to ever give up on.  

( 3 Negative )

- Devil-May-Care || Dorcas definitely struggles with dissociation. She is wild and reckless and has yet to realize that she only has one life to live so she ought to tread lighter. Instead, she is passionate and volatile. One step too far and she might take the entire ship down with her. - Impulsive || You don’t have to look too deep into her soul to find this rebel wide awake; she comes out eagerly and persistently. In fact, Dorcas is typically bad in general when it comes to taking directions. Once an idea is engraved in her mind, it is there to stay. She has no problem going rogue if she thinks her methods might solve the problem on hand and simply deal with repercussions after the fact. A common theme of hers is, “ don’t ask for permission, just forgiveness. ” - Self-Motivated || It’s not always blind violence and protest. A power-hungry Dorcas is often scheming to manipulate any situation in her favor. If she sees any opening, it is almost guaranteed that she will make her move like a predator on the attack. After all, Dorcas has many great things planned for her future and reckons getting her name out there is the quickest ticket to her goals. - Enigmatic || Dorcas is a force to be reckoned with and she often doesn’t let any obstacles prevent her from doing what needs to be done. She is both a wild card and a loose canon; no one ever knows what version of her they’re going to fish from their hat.

Faceclaim- Felicity Jones, Krysten Ritter, Odette Annable, Alexandra Daddario

( I can add more options to this list if you’re not happy with anyone mentioned above. I was just too excited / wanted to submit before commuting home from work! )

KEY POINTS

( tw: violence, tw: abuse, tw: mental illness, tw: death ) Dorcas never recanted tales from her childhood to anyone. It wasn’t necessarily because the memories were laced with pain, but rather the lack of recollection stirred up a different feeling inside her altogether. She was told the initial years after her mother’s death were difficult on everyone. Her father retreated to the confines of his study like some kind of recluse, investing all of his time working on mysterious projects the little girl couldn’t quite wrap her mind around. He hardly emerged from his study, but on the offset he did it was usually to reprimand the child. The man was unusually particular about making sure no one stepped foot into his private quarters except himself, however, Dorcas watched from afar with curious eyes one too many times; she couldn’t resist the temptation to stick her nose where she knew it didn’t belong or try recreating the same spells she had seen him using again and again.

Unlike the well-controlled magic she’d witness Cyril Grey spinning from the tip of his wand on numerous occasions, hers proved to be a sloppy and careless spectacle. The almost six year old had stolen his twelve and three quarter inches of Dragon Heartstring with the convoluted idea the scene before her would somehow play out differently rather than sending a collection of her father’s most prized possessions shattering in midair. Dorcas faintly recalls in one of her earliest memories as the crystal shattered all around her feet - she even remembers the piercing sting as sharp shards bounced back, lacerating her flesh. She stood barefoot among the fragments unaware of what she had just done before shock began to settle. Naturally the sound sent Cyril running down the creaky corridors of their home and into his study where he discovered his daughter standing among his most treasured belongings. It was enough to send the man into a full-blown frenzy; if the neighbors heard his cries that night surely they must have thought someone died and all had gone straight to hell in that instant.

Dorcas didn’t have the faintest clue if the artifacts bestowed any true sentimental value or not - she sincerely doubted it in her adulthood - however the way he laid into that evening when he saw her standing among fragmented crystal and shattered glass would have conveyed a different story entirely. The truth was her father was not a man of great sentiment; everything had a purpose, otherwise there was no need for it. She recalls with bitter memory growing up without any pictures of her mother in that wretched house. It was always hard to tell if the heartless man was born that way or if the condition occurred subsequent to his young wife’s death.

When Dorcas was still just a child, Cyril violently entrusted her with the message that her mother’s passing was unnatural, sudden, and far too soon. The message was conveyed in a variety of different ways. Sometimes it would be delivered across her face in the form of a piercing slap or an abrupt jerk to her shoulder blades and, though the emotion of regret often varied in his face afterwards, he always stood behind his word that she was well-deserving of it. She learned at a far younger age than anyone ever should that grief and loneliness can break any man down and turn them into coldhearted stone. She was nine now and, though it wasn’t her fault her mother perished far too soon, she walked around feeling like it was. Later in life she would come to understand that the weak man that he was had a hard time living with a constant breathing reminder of everything he loved and lost when Sophelia Meadowes-Grey departed from this world. It was evident he had grown to be a sick man, but refused any acknowledgement of his condition which became increasingly difficult on Dorcas who desperately longed for a mother and now a father too.

Dorcas lugged that pain around everywhere she went. It grew to be a heavy burden - one that became nearly impossible to bare alone. She lashed out every chance she could by dressing up desperate cries for attention and calls for help with inappropriate behavior, which was met each time with indistinct violence and ill-rapport instead of the nourishment any child that age craved. She drove herself to isolation - anxiously counting down the days until she could start anew at Hogwarts. When the first of September finally arrived, she found herself to be a lion among men and for the first time ever the newly dubbed Gryffindor felt like she was finally at home.

Dorcas never returned to her father’s home after her fourth year of school. She shed her family name and adopted her mother’s maiden name Meadowes instead. Those initial years on her own were the most difficult to digest as she attempted to maneuver living a life on her own in a world she could never quite comprehend. Working random summer jobs to make ends meet was not sustainable and quickly she realized she was going to have to shift her focus elsewhere. That’s when her interest in the outside world began to expand - she took up a keen interest in politics and criminology pertaining to the Wizarding World. It was as if she had been instilled with a sense of justice and a craving for revenge overnight. She had a strange fascination for the workings of the world and the psychosis of each individual around her, but it wasn’t until she was nearing the end of her sixth year at Hogwarts that the witch was provided with some redirection her life was desperately in need of. A destructive rampage landed the now sixteen year old with an entire month’s worth of detention, but rather than just seeing her as a problem child like so many before him had, one of her professors witnessed something else entirely.

As Dorcas continued growing, she continued to keep putting walls up. She didn’t know if it was because she was ashamed of who she was or where she came from, but she knew those factors played a significant role. Perhaps that is one of the reasons why occlumency came so natural for the brazen young witch. She always expressed an interest in the subject, however, it wasn’t until she was working under an instructor’s guidance during her remaining years of school that she truly began to excel. Her final years at Hogwarts were fleeting; she passed the time with lots of quidditch. As a seeker she was able to greatly nurture her flying skills, which eventually allowed her to lead into a career as a Hit Witch. Dorcas was then introduced to a handful of people who became more than simple best friends ever could. They became her family - the only one she would ever truly know, which would not be complete until after she was recruited to join the Order of the Phoenix after graduating. Though she wants to be a strong-hold for the Order, she walks a dangerous line misguided by her own skewed moral compass. In an attempt not to succumb to her own power-hungry demons, she hurls herself headfirst into the arms of war as she claims no one but she is the great decider of her fate.

EVENT #35 { WIZTOBERFEST & HALLOWEEN } – MANDATORY

“LISTEN! The wind is rising, and the air is wild with leaves. We have had our summer evenings, now for OCTOBER eves!”

Wiztoberfest is about to be back again in Hogsmeade! There’s butter beer, Northern European cuisine, and merry making all around for the entire month. There’s always something fun going on, like Butterbeer Drinking Competitions, Wizardoake Night, Shopping Experiences, Games, and so much more! On top of that, word has gotten out that Hogwarts will be hosting yet another Halloween Fair much like the one that occurred last year! The day and night of all Hallows Eve is looking to be the most fun of all. With it also being an open event for all who wishes to attend in the Wizarding Community, anyone can show up from all walks of life, though never fear– there will be chaperones making sure that the students safety remains a top priority. So, bring on the costumes and butterbeer, and let the games begin!

WIZTOBERFEST ACTIVITIES:

During Wiztoberfest, fourth through seventh year students will be allowed to attend the festivities after classes are over for the day during the week ( extracurriculars like clubs, quidditch, etc permitting! ) though first and second years will only be allowed to attend on the weekend when designated chaperones are walking the Wizarding Village. All of these activities take place everyday, but for writing purposes so everyone can continue to write threads without any rush, there’s going to be a designated event each week that you can write your character participating in aside from the general things listed below. Please keep in mind student curfews: 9PM for first through third years, 11PM for fourth through sixth years, and midnight for seventh years.

OCTOBER 1ST-7TH: Witching Hour. (description: butterbeer drinking competition. you must take a shot of the liquid every minute of the hour, or else you’re disqualified. those who manage to do it win prizes. while humans can’t get drunk from just the butterbeer itself, people are known to spike their shot with something else to make things interesting. )

OCTOBER 8TH-14TH: Wizardoake Night. (description: instruments will be on a stage, waiting to be charmed by the participant that will play whatever song they’re singing, with a charm consistent to cantis. the lyric charm will also be in use so they don’t forget the words.)

OCTOBER 15TH-21ST: Farmers Market. (description: vendors selling all kinds of goods line the streets of hogsmeade. you can find just about anything from the witches, wizards, and wix’s. it goes without saying you should be careful, unless you want to be swindled. )

OCTOBER 22TH-29TH: Haunted House Experience. (description: one of the cottages in the wizarding villages has been charmed with scares that would make even the toughest wizard pee his robes. those who get through it without shedding a tear receive special prizes. )

EXPECTATIONS: Students are expected to be back in their dorms by their curfews. Any later will result in detentions being issued for the parties involved. The staff fully expects for their students to be on their best behavior, and if they aren’t, detentions will be issued appropiately for that as well. Students are expected to attend their extracurriculars and not skip them in favor of Wiztoberfest. Due to Wiztoberfest itself not being a Hogwarts sanctioned event, a lot of typical rules are irrelevant, such as outfits of choice, though it’s frowned upon if students don’t represent Hogwarts appropiately. Prefects and Head Boy and Girl also do not have to consider themselves on duty while attending– though it is also frowned upon if they see another student in trouble and don’t assist.

Food: Due to the nature of the event, there will be a lot of Northern European treats, predominantly from germany, being served at different locations in Hogsmeade. Along with them, the usual wizarding treats will be available for consumption.

Costumes: Everyone at Wiztoberfest always dresses in costumes that represents different countries and places overall in Northern Europe. Attendants are encouraged to dress up and enter the Competitions for prizes.

Music: There will be different wrock bands and wizarding artists making appearances and performing.

Games: There’ll be a lot of different games occurring, such as stein hoisting, keg stacking, carry the wench, tug-o-war, grain sack toss, corn hole, frankenstein bowling, candy corn witch pitch, bingo, poppin pumpkins, skeleton pumpkins, and more!

**Please note that you don’t have to strictly write what is above. You’re allowed to have your character mention any Northern European food you can find, or if you want to make up a wizard game to write that’s fine as well, etc.

HALLOWEEN ACTIVITIES:

On October 31st, the usual Hallowe'en Feast will be occurring. It is festooned with candy-filled pumpkins, apples, black cauldrons of big lollipops, carrot cake, bats, orange streamers, and all sorts of Hallowe'en-related decorations. There is always some entertainment at the end, with the Hogwarts Ghosts popping out of the walls and doing formation gliding. It’ll start at 5PM, and end at 7:30PM. Afterwards, the student populace will head to Hogsmeade for the fair. The fair itself will end at 1AM for the students, though it will continue well into the morning hours for the adults present. There will be no classes the following day, but they will resume Wednesday.

EXPECTATIONS/NOTICES: Everything except for the unique shopping experience for students is free. All students are expected to be back on Hogwarts grounds and in their dormitory by 2AM. Prefects and the Head Boy and Girl are expected to make sure this process runs smoothly. All students are expected to not take advantage of the fact they’re allowed to come costumed as what they want, and the staff expects no one to show up in anything inappropriate or offensive. Any student who becomes publicly intoxicated ( drunk and disorderly ) will be escorted back to Hogwarts and receive detention– it will be tripled if they aren’t of age to be drinking anything that should cause the effect.

Crazy Amusement Rides: EX. roller coasters without tracks, trained dragon and hippogriff rides, etc. (let your imagination run free!)

Typical wizard treats: EX. (Animal crackers that make the eater make an animal noise, X, (foods can be found here if you need ideas, X sweets), X (only sixteen and older can purchase alcohol, third years and up can purchase butter beer due to it’s almost non existent alcohol content.)

Shopping: Unique shopping experiences from wizard world vendors.

Catch the snitch: in temporary glass dome, faster the time caught bigger the prizes.)

Whack-a-Dementor: use a hammer to whack the dementor doll that pops up for prizes.

Risk A Pint: butterbeer with enchanted effects. each one gives the drinker a hilarious, non-harmful reaction that can be just about anything.

High Striker: just like the muggle game, except you choose a spell to cast that will cause the scale to fly up as high as possible for a prize.

Great Balls of Fire: There are teams of four, and each person gets two balls. You have to throw the balls into a fake dragons mouth, and if you get enough balls in, it breathes fire and the team gets a prize. Caution: you can get burned.

Dunk stand: with Hogwarts Faculty. Sans Snape.

Pie throwing: at Hogwarts Faculty. Sans Snape.

Fortune Telling Booth: self-explanatory.

Aguamenti Race: you shoot water into a hole, just like with the muggle water gun race games, except you use the water spell. Whoever gets the most water in first wins a prize.

Sculpt the Gargoyle: the gargoyles faces changes into different animals and you have to match the right nose with it, and if you get five in a row correctly, you win a prize.

Ride the Hippogriff: just like riding a bull stands.

Oppugno Pursuit: use oppugno darts to pop a certain amount of floating balloons above them per player. Some of them have great prizes inside, others not so great (like earwax, general sludge, etc.)

Haunted House Experience: self-explanatory.

Haunted Maze Experience: self-explanatory.

Dance Floor featuring a DJ: self explanatory. DJing services will be from WWN, Wizarding Wireless Network, and will be blasting both Muggle and Wizarding tunes. The host will be Glenda Chittock of the Witching Hour.

***Please note that since it’s Halloween, everything will have a little bit of a twist, but that’s up to you. Also, feel free to make up anything you think would be there if it isn’t already here.

IMPORTANT OOC DETAILS:

Wiztoberfest begins OCTOBER 1ST and ends OCTOBER 30TH at 12AM EST. ( it also starts October 1st / ends October 30th ic. ) The Halloween event will begin on OCTOBER 30TH and end NOVEMBER 3RD at 12 AM EST, leaving ample time for everyone to get as much writing in for both as possible. For Wiztoberfest, please tag all posts (including any private thread starters, pictures, anything related at all) under wizard:wiztoberfest88, and tag everything regarding Halloween and the Fair as wizard:allhallowseve88.

Alumni characters are allowed to volunteer to be chaperones for the younger years on weekends, as well as for Halloween, but they can also just attend as a partygoer since it’s open to the Wizarding World.

Wiztoberfest is moderately mandatory for student and alumni characters, meaning you should be participating in it at some point during the month. However, you’re allowed to write it off and on as you please. You should still be writing the month of October outside of it! The Halloween event is mandatory fully, meaning if you’re on the dash, your character(s) have to be participating in some form or another. The main will message you if you’re online and not participating in the event at all.

POSSIBLE HOUSE POINT OPPORTUNITY: Each time your student character hits 25 points on a starter, they will have earned 50 points for their house. Please inform the main throughout the month each time this happens regarding Wiztoberfest and eventually Halloween, so the house cup page can be updated.

Yes, I loosely based this around Oktoberfest ooc, in case anyone was wondering! Just like Oktoberfest, Wiztoberfest is an event in Hogsmeade that dates back centuries and is hosted by the town.

Please like this post after reading it.

If you have any questions, please feel free to message the main!

The Blog of Dr. John H. Watson

As I theorize in this meta, if Sherlock is still in The Reichenbach Falls, somewhere in his mind palace figuring out what to do, why were the blogs updated? Is it a bluff from the writers? 

I’ve heard people saying that the blogs weren’t meant to be taken as canon, but I never understood that. Is this perhaps what they meant? 

There are sixteen entries after Moriarty “hacks” the blog, which is the last one on John’s blog before Sherlock supposedly jumps off the roof. We are meant to believe the entry after TSoT is the last entry. But what’s interesting is that HLV is when things start to go wonky. Time jumps, plot inconsistencies, and extremely OOC choices. Then there is no blog in Series 4, despite Sherlock’s mind producing images of it. Remember his mind is breaking down, he’s spinning too many plates. The blog entries stop because it is at this point that WE take over. TJLC really began after TSoT. It’s a fourth wall break. So…what if “Moriarty” hacked the blog and it stayed in “Moriarty’s” possession?

What if the blog “hack” is a part of the entire BBC Sherlock conspiracy? 

As in, what was written on the blog is what we saw on the show, but what we saw on the show wasn’t real. Just like The Geek Interpreter, a blog entry written on June 16th during the events of ASIB, which is about a guy who theorizes about the upcoming plot of his favorite comic book series on his blog, and then his blog starts coming true- which nearly drove the man insane. It turned out to be a conspiracy involving the creators of the comic book series to promote their series. 

People have already pointed this out as a very interesting piece of this puzzle we’ve been given, especially since we’ve seen cases that have already been solved and written up on the blog either alluded to or down right re-used in Series four. It does in fact seem like John’s blog is coming to life, and that those who have theorized about the show (TJLC) have been correct in many respects and, incidentally, are currently going insane.

 What is also extremely interesting is that the very next blog entry after “Moriarty’s” hack is Untitled and only one sentence. “He was my best friend and I’ll always believe in him.” Its the one “John” makes after Sherlock’s apparent suicide and it is made on JUNE 16th.

So if we are to believe that after Untitled, every blog entry is actually a theory of what could happen on BBC’s Sherlock, just as the comic book guy did, it would reflect exactly what Sherlock is doing on the show (which isn’t real) AND it would break the fourth wall as BBC’s Sherlock keeps alluding to. Sherlock literally broke down four walls in The Final Problem. It's a fourth wall break, within a fourth wall break. That’s a call back to Queen’s Break Free music video, but its also literally breaking four walls. The entire thing is also a major publicity stunt, just like the comic book producers.

The blog has been a MAJOR source of anxiety for me, and I think I’ve finally figured it out. I finally feel at peace.

Abram alas, pois o DECLAN CLARKE acaba de adentrar os corredores de Arcadia. Você pode conhecê-lo de várias formas, como o filho de DEADPOOL, pelo codenome que assumiu, RAZOR ou então por ser idêntico ao COLE SPROUSE. Mas nós sabemos que por trás de sua REGENERAÇÃO e ESPECIALIDADE EM ARMAS DE FOGO, DECLAN é tão humano quanto nós e pode ser BONDOSO E DIVERTIDO, INCONSEQUENTE E TEIMOSO e tem 17 anos.

TRÊS HEADCANONS

Crescer com um pai como Deadpool afetou bastante a personalidade de Declan. Apesar de muitos acharem Wade absolutamente insano, o garoto nutre uma admiração enorme pelo pai, até possuindo a moral um pouco cinza dele, adotando até alguns traços mais peculiares, como o hábito de falar da famosa quarta parede e de universos alternativos.

Desde pequeno que tem dificuldade em manter amigos. A maioria das pessoas o acha absolutamente louco e acaba por desistir dele, por ele se tornar tão imprevisível, sendo complicado depender dele. No entanto, o que a maioria não sabe, é que os acaba afastando por vontade própria, já que houve alguma coisa que aprendeu com Deadpool é que a primeira coisa que seus inimigos atacam é aqueles que são próximos de si, comprovado por quantas vezes tentaram explodir Declan sem sucesso, por ter herdade a regenaração rápida de seu pai.

Sempre gostou de ler sobre super-heróis e nutre uma admiração sincera por vários, mas nunca o contou para ninguém. Esconde sua pequena obsessão, já que diz para quem quiser ouvir que se quer tornar um mercenário como seu pai, dizendo que está em Arcadia apenas por ser mais seguro, de momento, do que ficar com Wade.

UM QUOTE

A fourth wall break inside a fourth wall break? That’s like, sixteen walls.

𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐓 𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐆: Graveyard

𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐓 𝐌𝐎𝐕𝐈𝐄 / 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐖: I'm currently rewatching Ink Master.

𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃: I just got done reading Murder By Gaslight by Troy Taylor. It's about H. H. Holmes and super interesting.

𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍: Anything really. Things will just hit me and be like, yep, that totally fits for whatever I'm woring on in that moment.

𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘 𝐁𝐄𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐃 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐔𝐑𝐋: No real story. I used to have all single blogs, which I can pull up if anyone needs, and then I put them all in a multi. I used to be writingxthexsilence, but some things transpired that I felt needed to be distanced from my blog so I changed the name to what it is now.

𝐅𝐔𝐍 𝐅𝐀𝐂𝐓: I'm currently working on myself to try and get back into acting. I've only ever done plays and the one film project I was in fell through, then I had kids and put everything on hold. But now that my kids are older I don't want to go my whole life without ever trying it out. I love acting and hope I can get a few projects here and there just for fun.

All is well and surgery was successful. I can already feel a difference outside of the actual surgical pain. Now I heal up and go back for the left in a out 2 months.

[myriadxofxmuses]

Down at the lake house today. I'm trying to get in all the fun I can before Tuesday. 🤣 Reception is shit out here, but I'm doing what I can even though I mostly am here for ooc stuff.

[myriadxofxmuses]

So kind of a major update on life. I am having nerve surgery on my arms starting Tuesday. They are doing one at a time, but it will significantly impact my ability to sit and type or use my phone to write. I will always be around ooc and checking in, but my replies may come even slower until I'm done healing. I appreciate all the patience ahead of time and if you'd like to start fresh once I'm fully back I will understand as well. Thanks again for being so considerate to my many faults at activity. I love all you guys for it.

[myriadxofxmuses]

Today is my birthday.

[myriadxofxmuses]

Made it to Colorado. We're here for the next week, so I'll probably be even quieter than usual - mostly just chatting ooc until we get back. But I'm gonna do what I can to get some more replies queued up. : )

I got a little over half of my replies queued up. They go until the beginning of July. I try not overwhelm my partners by just posting as I go, but if you would like our thread to go ahead and be posted I am more than happy to do so.

Sorry I have been quieter than usual. I have some recent medical developments in my life - knee issues flaring up, bilateral carpal tunnel in my arms, and a cyst on my brain - and it is taking up a lot of my time to get them figured out and treated. I haven't really talked with anyone about what's going on because I want to get all my info in order from the doctors before I start really digging my heels in and going through with whatever treatments/surgeries I'm going to need. Hence the quiet here.

I'm still able to be pretty active here ooc thankfully, so if there is ever a want to chat or vent or plot or whatever don't hesitate to hit me up. It's honestly a good distraction to my worry of all this health shit.

Thanks again for being patient with me. I appreciate more than you'll know.

NAME: Mo Mo

PRONOUNS: she/her

MOST ACTIVE MUSE(S): Ivy, Ethan, Gage, Oscar, Emily

RP PET PEEVES: elitist attitudes, ghosting, immediately blocking when reaching out instead of any sort of response, rushing me for replies

EXPERIENCE/HOW MANY YEARS: I think it's like 7 years now? It's not very long.

FLUFF, ANGST, or SMUT: Fluff and angst all the way

LONG OR SHORT REPLIES: Usually a few paragraphs to novella, but I generally write until I feel like the reply is done and ready for the next person to add to it.

TIME TO WRITE: Whenever. Lol. I tend to draft things and work on them as muse hits or when I have sporadic bursts of free time to write. Sadly it is very hit or miss that I can actually sit and write a lot, so jumping from reply to reply and queueing things up helps.

[myriadxofxmuses]

I don't usually do this, but I had a couple decent pictures recently and figured what the hell, it's Munday.

Happy Munday!
