2022: Henry Silva, attore statunitense. Il suo volto, caratteristico per impassibilità e durezza dell’espressione, si è prestato spesso per la parte dell’antagonista cattivo. In Italia ebbe un certo successo negli anni settanta partecipando a film del filone western e di quello poliziesco.

another random post about headcanons of mine for some asoue characters...their neftlix’s counterparts, that is:

netflix!mrs. quagmire is a quagmire by blood, with her mother being a former denouement. this makes netflix!mrs.quagmire a cousin to denouments. her full name is angela margot quagmire (as for why i picked angela, angela is isadora duncan’s actual first name).

netflix!mr. quagmire married into the quagmire family. his full name is quincy george oscar, nee bluth (george oscar bluth is a reference to the actor’s role on arrested development).

angela was once a pilot/aviator, but by asoue she’s a pilot/aviator instructor. angela uses her skills whenever on vfd missions though, because somehow, it’s always needed at one point.

quincy is an attorney. a defense lawyer in fact, and always has the luck of getting his always innocent’s clients a not guilty verdict, and getting justice strauss as the judge on his cases.

netflix!gregor was the original sugar bowl(tm) owner. he gave the sugar bowl(tm) to esme, believing she can keep it safe (being rich and beautiful, no one will suspect her). gregor needing it back for his research more or less help pave way to opera night(tm) and the schism itself.

netflix!ike has a small collection of hats, ever since he was a child. his favorite hat is the cowboy hat.

netflix!josephine was a j.s. prior to her marriage (maiden name is seymour). josephine considered keeping her maiden name after marrying ike, but she grew fond of the anwhistle surname.

I was googling something when I found out that Fitzgerald's wife (Zelda) allegedly got mad at him.

Then accused him of having a small penis. His best friend Hemingway was like "Let me have a look" so in a public bathroom he took a look at Fitzgerald penis. Then confirmed it was average sized.

Then Zelda accused the two of having a gay love affair. To prove who straight he was he hired a prostitute. Then fucked her. Zelda found the condom's and they fought. Which lead to lingering jealousy.

A bit after that, Zelda threw herself down a flight of marble stairs during a party. Because Fitzgerald was talking to Angela Isadora Duncan (A famous dancer who performed throughout Europe and the US) and ignoring her.

Angela Isadora Duncan

was an American dancer and choreographer, pioneer of modern contemporary dance.

Duncan was born in 1877 at 501 Taylor Street, San Francisco, CA, in what is now known as the Tenderloin. Duncan’s father left a few years after her birth, leaving Dora Duncan to raise four children. The Duncans relocated to Oakland and lived a Bohemian lifestyle while running Dora’s music school. It was there that Isadora first began teaching dance classes.

Fitting the Duncan’s offbeat lifestyle, partially motivated by Greek revivalism, Isadora did not teach classical ballet, which dominated the dance scene at the time. Instead, she developed her own technique with loose tunics, bare feet, and flowing hair; all aspects inspired by Greek sculpture and philosophy.

As she matured, Duncan sought liberation from both the rigid ballet world and the restricting views of womanhood. Her movement was entirely intuitive, and her costume without a corset: a shocking sight at the time. Duncan’s work was seen as rather eccentric and was not initially accepted in America.

Isadora founded her first dance school in 1905 outside of Berlin, to train dancers for a company, dubbed ‘The Isadorables’. By 1907 Duncan had become an international celebrity. In tandem with her revolutionary movement, she utilized composers such as Beethoven, Chopin and Wagner, rather than popular jazz music. Duncan’s recognition led to performances for European royalty, as well as Vladimir Lenin.

Duncan met an untimely death in 1927, when her quintessential scarf was caught in the hubcap of a moving automobile. The San Franciscan icon left behind a legacy. Duncan’s radicalism, intuition and inspirational dancing contributed to central themes of 20thcentury dance. Furthermore, Duncan single-handedly proved that new forms of dancing could be appreciated. Duncan’s bold work ultimately helped pave the way for modern dance pioneers to come.

“You were once wild here. Don’t let them tame you.”                                            ~ Isadora Duncan (American-French dancer, 1877-1927)

Portrait of Isadora Duncan by Valentine Lecomte (French artist, born 1872-?)

“Angela Isadora Duncan was an American and French dancer who performed to acclaim throughout Europe. Born in California, she lived in Western Europe and the Soviet Union from the age of 22 until her death at age 50, when her scarf became entangled in the wheels and axle of the car in which she was riding.”    ~ Wikipedia

Quagmire Triplet Cousins AU: The Spider Trilogy

A year ago, I made a post about an ASOUE AU inspired by the Six Baudelaires AU about Book!Quagmires and Netflix!Quagmires being cousins (for Book!Mr.Quagmire is the adopted brother of Netflix!Mrs.Quagmire), and several months back, I made an updated post with new information, mainly regarding the Netflix!Quagmires.

Not long after that, I had a post idea, but it took some time to make + figure out how to post it. But, it's here now. A pre-canon fanfiction prompted by incorrect quotes that features the Quagmire triplets,

Brief note if you didn't click the link, to avoid getting confuse: Netflix!Duncan is Augustin, Netflix!Isadora is Eliza, and Netflix!Quigley is Hallissey.

[Quigley Legit Thinks Leaving the Backdoor Open as Smart Here]

One nice thing about visiting Aunt Angela and Uncle Quincy’s place is their place is the woods. While Quigley and his siblings are forbidden to venture in —even Augustin, Eliza, and Hallissey aren’t allowed to step foot in it— they are able to visit the entrance and field before it. There’s plenty of wild flowers, bushes, and small trees in the field, meaning it’s perfect to play and explore.

Today, Quigley —alongside his cousin Eliza— are in the family room, currently looking at a plotted plant. On a leaf, there’s a nice little ladybird on a green leaf. The ladybird is just there, doing nothing.

The last time Quigley checked the back window, Hallissey was looking at something near a bush, right near the entrance of the woods. Quigley left the back door open though, for if he hears any trouble, he can instantly run towards Hallissey.

Quigley is pretty certain that his cousin won’t get into that.

“You know, every time I see a ladybird, I think about Francis from A Bug’s Life,” says Quigley.

“Me too. I think that’s how ladybugs interact with other bugs in their world,” says Eliza. “Throwing hands down for getting misgendered.”

“Hey! Quigley! Eliza! Guess what!?”

Quigley quickly looks up to see Hallissey with a smile on his face. His hands are cup over each other.

“I found a cool spider!” exclaims Hallissey

Eliza instantly looks at Hallissey. “Oh? Lemme see!”

Still smiling, Hallissey opens up his hands. But nothing is there.

“…Where’s the spider,” says Quigley.

And yes, he said it as a statement, not a question.

Hallissey doesn’t answer. All he does is stare at his hands, looking worry.

“Oh no,” says Eliza, almost quietly.

Quigley feels the bubbles of trouble brewing. “HALLISSEY, WHERE’S THE SPIDER!?”

[Hallissey Once Again Brings a Spider Home…]

It’s once again another day at the Quagmire Household. Aunt Angela is in the City, giving out lessons to learning pilots and aviators. Uncle Quincy is actually at home, but he’s in his private office on the second floor, doing very important lawyer tasks.

Duncan is at the kitchen table alongside Isadora, Augustin, and Eliza. The four of them are having a nice late breakfast of pancakes Uncle Quincy made before retreating into his private office. There’s one more plate at the table, pancakes untouched.

That plate belongs to Hallissey, who once again, spent a night in the backyard camping. Duncan couldn’t help but stare at the stack of pancakes, and then at Eliza. There’s a shine in her eyes.

“I say if Hallissey doesn’t show up in the next fifteen minutes,” begins Eliza, “we take his pancakes for ourselves.”

“No stealing anyone food!” Duncan gives Eliza a stern look. “What happened with the pizza last time is still a burning memory.”

“It’s more fun to steal,” replies Eliza, “you stick in the mud.”

“You’re clearly forgetting your dad made extras and left them on the counter,” says Isadora, pointing her fork towards one of the kitchen’s many counters, where a giant stack of pancakes is. She then cuts her pancake into a square shape.

“Well, you can have my last pancake,” says Augustin, setting his fork and knife down on the napkin beside his plate. “I think I overestimated how many I can eat.”

“Oh! Thank you, Augustin!” Eliza smiles as she stabs the last pancake off the plate, the syrup on it ready to drip onto the table.

As soon as Eliza set that pancake onto her plate, there’s a faint knock on the back door. Duncan wipes his mouth his napkin, and walks out of the kitchen, into the hallway, and to the back door. From the windows, he can see Hallissey in his pajamas.

Also, in Hallissey’s hands, he has a cup and a piece of paper. Duncan quickly unlocks the door, and burrows his brows at Hallissey.

“Good to see you’re finally joining us for breakfast, Hallissey.”

“Morning to you too!” Hallissey nods his head at Duncan, and steps inside the house, walking no doubt to the kitchen where the others are at.

When Duncan rejoins the others, he sees Eliza, Augustin, and Isadora looking suspiciously at the cup and piece of paper Hallissey has in his hands.

“So…” says Isadora.

“Regarding that in your hands…” joins in Augustin.

“The fuck you have this time?” asks Eliza.

“I found a spider. Cool little lad,” answers Hallissey. He looks down at the cup, and smiles. “Thanks for eating the mosquitoes.”

Hallissey soon carefully sets the cup and piece of paper onto one of the many other counters in the kitchen, and then takes off.

Duncan doesn’t say anything. All he does is stare at Eliza, Augustin, and Isadora. The other three are giving him the same look no doubt he has on his face.

This isn’t going to be good at all, thinks Duncan.

Indeed, that thought proves to be correct.

Only an hour later, does trouble strike the Quagmire Household.

Duncan has just come back from the backyard himself after a nice little stroll, when he walks past by the open kitchen door. He sees Hallissey standing near one of the counters. It’s the counter he placed the cup and paper on, in fact.

Duncan quickly walks backwards. He sees the cup is overturn, and the paper is empty.

“Oh no, where did it go?” asks Hallissey, very nonchalantly.

“Hallissey, what the fuck?!”

[Isadora and Augustin Have a Nice Moment Together]

Isadora isn’t supposed to run down the hallway, but she’s currently in a dilemma. The bookmark that Quigley gave to her on their eleventh birthday —a bookmark in the shape of crow, one he made in Art Class — has gone missing. She’s not sure how it went missing in the first place! One minute, it was in her binder. Next, it was gone!

Isadora hopes that she can find the bookmark before it gets clean up thrown out as trash by the cleaning service. They’re not due until tomorrow, but she isn’t going to risk it. That’s why she’s running down the hallways, looking down for a black, bird-shape heavy piece of paper on the carpet floor.

“Where it is, where it is, where it-There you are!”

Isadora spots the crow bookmark down on the floor, near the small library alcove on the second floor. And that alcove is near the door of the former game room turn storage room. Isadora isn’t sure why her aunt and uncle turn it into a storage room, but hey! It means if she needs something and she doesn’t want to run to the storage room on the first floor, there’s a good chance it’s on the second floor!

For some reason, Augustin currently has his back up against the wall of the storage room. There’s a fear in his eyes. “Don't go to the storage room.”

“I wasn’t planning that,” says Isadora, crossing her arms, “but I’ll still ask. Why?”

“I saw a spider. The spider.”

Oh shit! Isadora feels the fear from breakfast skyrocketing upward.

“Well, did you kill it?”

“It has eight arms and I only have two! It’s not fair…”
