Famous Five Art Nostalgia #04 – Part 3

Introductory post

Masterpost

A word of warning: this one is… an experience. Strap on your seatbelt and get ready for a wild ride!

⛰️🧺🌫️ Five Go to Smuggler's Top – Le Club des Cinq en vacances

Original publication date: 1945 (UK), 1956 (France)

(Cover art by Umberto Nonna, 1981)

Plot summary (adapted from Wikipedia):

Siblings Julian, Dick and Anne are spending the Easter school holidays with their cousin George at her parents’ house, Kirrin Cottage. After a tree falls on the house, the four children are sent to Smuggler's Top, the home of Mr Lenoir, a fellow-scientist of George's father, Uncle Quentin. Smuggler's Top is a queer house at the summit of an old hilltop coastal town, partly surrounded by dangerous marsh.

(Starting right away with some Nonna-drama! Frankly, wtf is this picture doing in this part of the book? Granted, the Five have been discussing the dangers of the marsh with their driver, who warned them not to let Timmy wander lest he falls in. But this picture clearly illustrates the final scene of the book where Timmy does get sucked into the mud. Assuming that the artist wanted to draw this picture in colour, and since the colour illustrations are always placed in first and last position, he may have moved it to fit it in? Mmh, possibly... 🤔 On a different topic, why does Uncle Quentin (if that’s even him?) look like the undead from a zombie apocalypse?! 🧟)

The children are welcomed by Pierre Lenoir a.k.a. Sooty (Julian's and Dick's schoolmate and Mr Lenoir's stepson) and his half-sister Marybelle. Mr Lenoir hates dogs, so George's dog Timmy is hidden in a secret passage.

One night, the boys spot a light flashing in the house's tower. They suspect the signaller may be Block, the house's sinister, apparently deaf manservant, but he appears to be sleeping in his bedroom at the time.

(Sooty sneaks into Block’s room to check if he’s actually sleeping in his bed or if he might be the mysterious signaller currently in the tower... Now wait just a goddarn second. The whole motherloving plot twist is that, in this scene, Sooty is seeing a decoy made with a ball and a pillow occupying Block’s bed, while Block himself is indeed sending signals from the tower. THIS DOES NOT LOOK LIKE A DECOY, THIS ILLUSTRATION MAKES NO FREAKING SENSE 😭😭😭)

Uncle Quentin comes to stay with them and intends to sell Mr Lenoir a plan for draining the marsh. Uncle Quentin’s arrival disrupts the kids’ sleeping arrangements, as well as their trick for sneaking Timmy in and out of the house for walks. As George tries to discreetly remove Timmy from his current hiding place, she gets caught in Mr Lenoir’s office, which the children are forbidden to enter. She gets locked up in her room as a punishment, although Sooty later shows her a way to sneak out and finally rescue Timmy.

(George waits for Mr Lenoir to fall asleep so she can get Timmy out of his current hiding place)

During the night, Uncle Quentin is kidnapped, along with Sooty, by a local smuggler named Mr Barling, who fears the planned draining of the marsh will bring an end to his smuggling business.

The children find another secret underground passage, leading to where Sooty and Uncle Quentin are being held captive by Barling and his henchman, who have been assisted by Block. Timmy attacks the kidnappers, allowing the captives and the children to escape.

(The good news is, George has found the secret passage! The bad news, well…) [I actually like this picture a lot, in all its over-dramatic glory; I think it illustrates well George's impulsiveness in jumping up and down the secret panel]

The police arrive to capture the smugglers. Outside the tunnels, Timmy is almost sucked down into the marsh but is saved by Uncle Quentin, assisted by Julian.

(Okay, so I think this is Uncle Quentin, but what is this picture doing at the end of the book? I don’t recall a moment where he’s reading a letter at Smuggler’s T– Oooooooh I get it. 😮💡The two colour illustrations were swapped. So this one is from an early chapter when Quentin receives the letter inviting the children to Smuggler’s Top, and the one with Timmy struggling in the marsh should be here. Welp. Congrats, Mr Nonna. That was a good way of turning me cuckoo. 🤪)

~~~~~~

If you have read this far, I want to shake your hand and thank you for your dedication in going through this whole craziness with me. 🤝

Here's hoping that I haven't lost you and will see you next time! 😉

[sweetestpopcorn]

Hey. I discovered you on ao3 by your excellent fic the blacks and the Greens. Fantastic 💯💯💯

As a fellow daemyra fan, you have fulfilled all my shipping wishes. Cannot thank you enough. Everytime I feel depressed I read your fics and it makes me feel so much better. 😍

I was on twitter and found that people are supporting the Greens. I was like whatttt!!!!! ☠️.

Even worse they are bashing daemyra. Like WTF. if anyone is to be blamed it's Otto, alicent and ugghhh criston Cole. I've been bashed for criticising them. Before this I didn't even know that green supporters could exist. Like who in their right mind would support greens at all. And now this HoTD will demonize Rhaenyra, I'm sure of it. The castings are wayyy off. Not bashing anyone but Rhaenyra does not look like any sort of delight and idk what to say about the Daemon actor😭. I'm sure they mist be great actors but looks wise, no. I honestly thought the actor for Otto looked wayy better than demon's. What are your thoughts on it? Am I the only one demented? Have you received hate for supporting blacks or not supporting greens.

Hey there!

Awww thank you so much! Truly reading this makes me very happy, though you have to blame me writing that fic on me not having (good) Daemyra fics to read XD because I had never written fanfic before. Alas, the one true OTP of Fire and Blood and the hottest couple EVER needed someone to write about them so I was like:

Regarding twitter, a very dear friend of mine who also writes fics (though in a completely different fandom) told me (almost begged me) to never go to twitter. She said it was a totally new level of insanity there and gave me a few examples. Afterwards I made the (wise) decision of not going there. EVER.

I have spoken on my thoughts regarding REDACTED SHOW it's just two actually its:

1- No.

2- Hahahaahahah 😂😂😂

I actually have received very little hate in the almost three years I have spent working on my fanfictions, believe it or not. The two times I had haters/disgusting people was this hum... *insert your choice of insult here* calling me a paedophile (I laughed a lot, that truly put a smile on my face the whole day), and this *insert choice of insult here* who was recommending another fic to one of my readers on my comment section - super polite, yes I know - and used the following words regarding Rhaenyra "Daemon turned her into a whore" 🥰😍. #feminism 

As far as Green fans I have had like one or two reading my fic - that I know of. They were nice and seemed to like it. Tbh though, black fan, green fan, or neutral, you can either think Daemyra is hot af or you can be wrong :3 as long as they are polite I mean... stan whomever you like I don't care. And tbh I have seen a lot of so called "Rhaenyra fans" and "Black stans" say way more disgusting things - about Rhaenyra - than Greens fans or neutrals.

This is what this fandom does to me... I defend Green stans #f_ckmylife.

ALSO can anyone believe I wrote a Rhaegar/Lyanna fic and I got 0 hate comments? That was the shock of my life, ngl.

GOT and everything that came up until now regarding REDACTED SHOW taught me all I needed to know. They destroy the asoiaf material and George doesn’t care. No hate to him, I have never been offered millions of dollars. Maybe in his place I wouldn’t care either. I want to believe I would still care, but I think we tend to try and think the best about ourselves, so likely I would be a sell out too.

I also try to stay in my lane both on tumblr and on ao3. Like in my own blogs and fics I write whatever I want, but I very rarely respond to people, and I try not to get into fights online because it’s like a mud fight with a pig. The pig gets happy and you will get dirty.

That being said yes, I have read so much disgusting things written about Rhaenyra and the Blacks I just... sure why not? Tbh fair though, I have read some disgusting things about the Greens too, though trust me they do not come close to what is written about the Blacks and most of all about Rhaenyra.

Then again, I have seen Dany called a whore, slaver, white supremacist, rapist, racist, people wishing she would die/get raped, mad, cruel, compared to Joffrey etc etc... so it really doesn’t surprise me this fandom would go after Rhaenyra as they do.

While you are doing the Seven’s work by defending our Queen of Fashion and of the Seven Kingdoms aka Rhaebae, for your sake I would advise you to stay out of those fights and not give those people the time of day. Try to create a safe place for yourself online. Block whatever people and tags you need to, and surround yourself with positive content. It’s what I try to do <3 

As for myself, I will continue - to the best of my habilites - to give those who search for it Daemyra fics. I have tons of ideas and I am actually thinking of doing a poll of a oneshot people would like to see about them regarding any scene in canon or an au people would like to read. I will see if people would be interested when I update the next chapter XD 

Thank you again for your words. It’s a pleasure to write for someone like you! 

All the best!

XOXO, 

Gossip Popcorn.
