Adelaide cocked her head. “Julius, my love,” she said. “A moment. Think how much the pair might fetch at our next auction.”

Winkman’s eyes narrowed, considering. “An intriguing thought, my dear. One time special offer, boy,” Winkman said, grinning manically at Lockwood. “Hand over the bone glass, and we won’t kill you.”

Lockwood bit his lip, reaching for Lucy’s hand, and did one of the hardest things he’d ever done in his life.

He lowered his rapier.

got hyped up on an espresso martini last night and wrote this in my notes app without any actual idea of or plans to write a fic around it whoops. (TCS au where lucy doesn't flee to portland row)

To his surprise, and minor concern, it was Barnes at the door.

“Inspector,” Lockwood said. “What can I do for you?”

“Is Carlyle here?” Barnes asked gruffly.

Lockwood raised an eyebrow. “No, sir, she hasn’t lived here for several months. I can give you her new address-“

“I’ve just come from there,” Barnes interrupted, rubbing his eyes tiredly. “May I come in?”

Lockwood let Barnes brush past him, and they settled into armchairs facing each other in the sitting room. What sort of trouble could Lucy have already gotten herself into? It hadn’t been all that long since they’d worked the cannibal job together.

“Have you seen Miss Carlyle recently?” Barnes asked, pulling Lockwood from his thoughts.

“Yes, about a week ago,” Lockwood answered. “We hired her for a case brought to us by Penelope Fittes.”

“What day exactly?” Barnes pulled out his notepad and started jotting things down.

“Er…Tuesday,” Lockwood answered. “Or I suppose Wednesday, since it went all night.”

“So the early hours of Wednesday,” Barnes summarized. “Have you heard anything from her since then?”

“No…” Something felt wrong. There was a tight look in Barnes’ eyes. “Inspector, what’s happened to Lucy?”

“She’s missing,” Barnes said. “Missed a job with Rotwell and the supervisor couldn’t get a hold of her, so he reported it to us. A team went to her flat and found it ransacked. None of her neighbors have seen her since Wednesday afternoon.”

It was like all the blood drained from Lockwood’s body at once. He felt cold and lightheaded, chest hollow, heart stopped. Lucy was in trouble. Lucy was in trouble and he couldn’t help her.

“Have you phoned her family?” Lockwood heard himself ask. “Her mum and sisters?”

Barnes nodded. “They haven’t heard from her.”

Lockwood mentally cycled through everyone else Lucy knew. Him and George and Holly, obviously. Arif, though she had no reason to stop by his store these days. Their usual cabbie, Jake, thought he tended to keep to the area around Marylebone.

“Kipps,” Lockwood said. “They’re…almost friends. Maybe he’s heard from her.”

Barnes wrote that down. “I’ll have someone give him a call.” He paused, then gave Lockwood a serious look. “We…we are suspecting foul play. Like I said, her place had been trashed. Can you think of anyone who might have a motive?”

“Adelaide Winkman,” Lockwood said almost immediately. “Though I would think she’d come after me first.”

“I’ll post someone outside your house for the next few days,” Barnes said. “Just in case. Anyone else?”

Other than the Winkmans, most of the people Lockwood and Lucy had pissed off in recent months were dead. Fairfax, Joplin, many, many relic men…

“No,” he said quietly. “Not unless Mr. Aickmere is still upset about the poltergeist incident.”

It had meant to be a joke, but neither of them laughed. Barnes set down his notepad and fixed Lockwood with a serious stare.

“Anthony,” he said softly, chilling Lockwood to the bone. “You need to prepare yourself for the worst.”

The worst. So Barnes thought Lucy was already dead. Perhaps that was logical, given how long she’d been missing. But she couldn’t be dead. Lockwood was certain he’d know if she was, would have felt it as keenly as he had felt her absence every day for months.

“Right,” was all he could say in response.

Barnes gripped his shoulder tightly for a moment, a small gesture of comfort, then rose to his feet. “Call me if you hear anything. You have my number.”

Lockwood nodded and followed Barnes to the door, seeing him out. As soon as the man was gone, Lockwood sank to the floor.

Lockwood and Co Appreciation Week: Day Seven - Free Day!!

To be fair I wasn't sure what to post for today (and I totally didn't almost forget oops) but I thought today I would say a little bit on the cast!!

So of course everyone knows about Cameron, Ruby, and Ali now, and I absolutely love them. To see this as Cameron's first role is just??? incredible, that man's talent is so crazy. I hadn't seen anything Ali had been in before and Ruby you briefly see in Bridgerton, so it was really amazing to see all three of these young actors having leading roles in a hit show, and I couldn't be more proud of them!!

The supporting actors were also so amazing, and it was so exciting to see people from other pop culture / fandoms in the show too!! Jack (Quill Kipps) was in an episode of Sex Education - which I actually recognised him from! Louise Brealey (Joplin) some of you may recognise as Molly Hooper from BBC's Sherlock (!!) and I was so excited to see her on my screen again, and Jeff Rawle (Saunders) played Amos Diggory in Harry Potter!!

Amongst others I was so excited to see in the show was Alice Lowe (Adelaide Winkman) who I grew up watching from Horrible Histories (British kids will understand), Paul Thornley (Cutter - the undercover agent) played Ron Weasley in the original Cursed Child cast, and Paddy Holland (Bobby Vernon) who I was so trilled to see cast in the show and start getting acting gigs!! (Yes, Paddy is Tom Holland's brother, but I think it's really amazing for him to get roles outside of the limelight of Tom!)

ANYWAYS, I really really loved the entire cast for the show. As someone who's grown up watching so much film and tv it always excites me to see actors I recognise in new things and also being blown away by new actors because they're just so good. Lockwood and Co was no exception and I cannot wait for season two and more actors!!

Adelaide Winkman is hot.

[aaeds]

The show!Winkmans were almost comically villainous and when I saw the photos pre-trailer I thought wow, how will this work. They’re not nearly as scary as an old fashioned rum runner mobster that I pictured in black and white.

But I mean that Gilbert Gottfried screaming up the stairs chasing them after the auction? “Where's my mirror!?”, shirt off ready to throw down? Laughing like a sociopath?

That was actually both funny and deranged. I love it.  If they broth Adelaide back and Leopold, I wonder how THAT would be handled.

If you ever think I am over where I have seen Mrs Adelaide Winkman from you are dead wrong i will never be over this

also I really need to go over fairy lore (off the top of my head i only remember iron and salt) and compare and constrast with the ghost physics in this series

[anthonylockwoods]

'She was Mrs. Adelaide Winkman; she and her husband had owned the place for 20 years, aince their predecessor had been accidentally crushed under a piece of erotic sanctuary.'

1) WHAT

2) Is this implying that they killed them? I wouldn't put it past the Winkmans.

A collection of weird details

There’s a matador technique that can be used against ghosts???

Lockwood knows prison guards for some reason

He is also in the habit of picking up people’s mail when it’s right outside their door

Ghost horses are things, apparently

And are commonly shown on merry-go-rounds

George knows tobacconists??? Why??? He’s my age I don’t know any tobacco experts

the skull’s face actually is that scary 

Adelaide Winkman used to be a butcher. Scary.
