I'm only halfway through Crucible of Gold and poor fucking Hammond. That book exists solely to Put That Man In A Goddamn Situation. He is having a Bad Time and he absolutely deserves it. I especially love when he's telling Laurence that they can't fly two weeks out of their way to take some old guy home and then it turns out that the capital just so happens to be near where the old guy is from.

And the amount of dragon-based travel for him is great too. We literally open with him flying from Peking to Sydney virtually non-stop and then the Allegiance SINKS in the middle of the PACIFIC??? and he is forced to travel by dragon once again and its all so funny to me because I know what ends up happening.

Arthur Hammond can be a slippery guy, no doubt. But you have to admire how he rolls with the punches. He spends his time with the Embodiements of Undiplomatic Behavior, Laurence and Temeraire, and still manages results almost everywhere he goes.

Churki & Hammonds :)

I love these two they're both weirdos. Guy who gets airsickness and doesn't particularily like dragons and the dragon that wants him and his whole family as her own...

The Sign of Four (1987)

My rating: 5/10

I mean, I suppose there is something to be said for not shying away from the inherent racism and bigotry of the source material, but like. Kinda feel like maybe they should've?

[sir-klauz]

6 novels and 1 DVD I acquired. Watch me hermit some more, ahaha. Supernatural and horror vibe’s predominantly, classics and new titles. And of course, one pink book about a feline. This pile sims me up pretty well. 😂

I came across one of the older remakes of Alice in Wonderland, one that totally scarred my from the repetition of that cherry ripe song she had to bloody learn which got branded into my head, I must say this depiction was so 🫠 I prefer the others, but I like all Alice stuff and collecting what I can do, onto the shelf it goes! Not to mention my dear Gene Wilder being in it.

Ever since that "can your fave survive castle Dracula" blog did Stephen Maturin I've been thinking about Temeraire Characters vs. Castle Dracula so here's the breakdown: Laurence: About as good odds as the average Jonathan Harker. He has similar approach to religion (and would probably take the crucifix out of social obligation) and ability to manage the social situation with Dracula. He has experience being prisoner of various groups for various motives, and he has a tendency to accidentally make arrogant tyrants fall in love with him, so he's good on the "keeping Dracula's attention" front. If he managed to get in the baby situation he'd probably die because he'd try to save it (self-sacrificial martyr streak) but it's unlikely he'd end up in that exact spot with the vampire ladies since I think he'd be a lot more military and methodical about any exploring and always return to safe zones up until his actual escape attempt. Anyway if he lives long enough to try climbing he's home free, the man might not be a born and bred aviator but he's been climbing first ships' rigging and then dragon harness his entire life and once escaped a palace that was on fire by climbing down the outside. CAN survive. Tharkay: As a major proponent of “if it sucks, hit da bricks,” Tharkay climbed out the window on night #1. Granby: Granby would take the crucifix and from there it would mostly depend on how much Dracula finds him entertaining. Granby won't be polite about being imprisoned, and is used to Iskierka who will react to his protests by overruling him instead of getting bored and killing him. So i'm inclined to think Dracula would not find him so fun, in which case he probably would kill him early on. That said he could probably make the climb even one-handed. (again, burning palace experience) Could Survive but Probably Won't. Sorry Granby. Jane Roland: I will be honest I do not see any situation in which Jane could be tempted into castle Dracula in the first place, at least not without Excidium also being there on a mission of destruction. She's more of a Quncy Morris type, only she wouldn't die because she'd be on the back of a fifteen ton dragon who will melt Dracula into a horrible goo from aloft. Survives, by virtue of not playing.

Arthur Hammond: I cannot stress enough how fast this man dies.

Temeraire: Is a dragon the size of a frigate with a sonic attack that regularly causes landslides. Castle Dracula does not survive him.
