On the first day of Tamlin's week,

I bring to you the Human Tamlin meme.

@rayshippouuchiha : posts something I have absolutely no idea about in a fandom I've never been part of

Me, absolutely not specifically seven crows in a disguise, still finding it relatable/shiny:

Also here's my cat holding still for a picture after I told her it was for Ray (betrayal lol she never does that for anyone else):

👑 The Royal Family 👑

Caution: the contents of this post should not be seen by those who are hypersensitive to 🧛🏻‍♂️.

Ladies, beware!

☣️☣️☣️

My post below is kind of… weird,  I know, but still, I want to share my thoughts with you.

The whole story was actually quite bizarre, thus my analysis couldn't be anything but, well, strange. And as I went AWOL for almost a year I’m coming today with some outdated news, let’s say to celebrate the king’s coronation last Saturday.

(All I want to say is that you read it at your own risk)

One more warning: I’ve posted below a photo of 🧛🏻‍♂️. Please, be warned.

I’ve also posted a „photo” of Baby Augustus, but his “image” was so heavily (and badly) photoshopped, that I don’t feel bad about sharing it on my blog.

So, as you can guess I want to discuss with you damage control post-funeral photo published, supposedly, in Irish Daily Mirror one day after the funeral, but made public five months after, in January 2023.

You know, from the legal point of view, if it was a REAL funeral photo with a REAL baby image published without the consent of the family, it wolud have been removed from internet months ago. It’s not such a big deal even for an aspiring lawyer. Baby’s image (apart from rules of sharing images with or without consent of baby’s parents) is considered as a personal data. So, as Ireland is a member state of the European Union, the GDPR (data protection rules) applies there. It means that a short request to cease the infringements would end the case.

But the photo, despite of everything, saw the light of day five months after it was taken.

You don’t have to be a genius to come to the conclusion that it was meant to go public.

What a creepy family, indeed, The Balfes.

By the way, poor quality of work in Photoshop on Baby Augustus photo reminds me the story of,  if you'll excuse me, failed “Potato Jesus” (aka “Monkey Christ”) restoration, a certain amateur restoration job that gone terribly wrong. 

Making long story short, the painting of Jesus wearing a crown was given a fresh lick of paint by an elderly local resident of a small village in Spain and in the end the face appeared to have been strangely smeared (just like Baby Augustus 😉). The result of the botched restoration spawned a photoshop meme:

(Anyway, the depth of the image of “Potato Jesus” is comparable to Baby Augustus “photo”, best proof of lack of skills in Photoshop. Caitríona’s PR department never bothered to pick a guy with any talent, IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN).

And now…

Here Comes the Sun.

The Royal Family in all its unflinching glory:

⬇️⬇️⬇️

No, this wasn’t my idea.

Someone wrote on Tumblr that Baby Augustus was strikingly similar to prince William.

Yup, he really was. As if he was William’s twin brother.

… or younger brother who wears old clothes of his big bro.

And why on earth the whole family looks like a cost-reduced version of the royal family?

You know, I can’t help thinking that there's more than just a coincidental similarity in these photos.

Another conspiracy theory.

I'm tired.

Excuse my poor photoshop skills.

[ribbondee]

AND STOP STARIN' AT ME WITH THEM BIG OL' EYES!

please excuse my poor photoshop skills

[savingthrcw]

yep, I'm doing it

temporary page for Bonnie "BonBon" Gillanders, oc for Bridgerton, and excuse the poor photoshop skills but she has scars and walks with a cane:

(it's a poor representation but at least you know where the scars are)

Triggers: ableism due to her mother and how certain elements of the ton may react, mostly, which can't be tagged because subtle and pretty much always present. She's "disfigured" and keeps the lower half of her face hidden under her mother's orders (her left cheek and part of her chin are scarred), as well as having a limp and chronic pain on her right leg, which means she holds a cane with her left hand. *She* is fine about it, though she gets understandably angry about her leg when it hurts too badly. Open to ship with: men as long as they don't try to make her act more serious.

how did she get here? Born in Scotland in a very rich family, she grew up as a very obedient child, until at age 12 her eldest brother Alexander Jr. (18) and elder sister Fiona (15) took her out with their carriage; they had an accident, the carriage rolled down a small cliff and she was the only one to survive. Her knee was permanently injured and she suffers from chronic pains and inflammations that keep her in bed, her face was disfigured, but other than that she was nearly unscated. Her father (Alexander), terrified at the thought of losing her, from then on kept her constantly in the house and barely let her go outside to protect her, seeing her as too damaged to survive it. Her mother (Joyce), ashamed and horrified by the way her now only daughter looked, kept her hidden for a different reason and forced her to keep a veil on her face every time people might be around, covering it from her nose down. They tried and succeeded at making two more heirs to keep the family line going (Michael and Alice), then recently inherited a fortune from her recently passed maternal uncle, with the condition that they'd take care of Bonnie's cousin Leandra Lees, and moved to London to start anew; now it's time to introduce Leandra to society and help her find a husband, and Bonnie (24 years old) would like to slip in, veil on her face or not, and see more of the world. She was followed by Mr. and Mrs. Grey, who take care of her at all times and have done so all her life (especially since she was left to her own devices a lot). (Leandra is the one who called her BonBon first, and it stuck.)

Personality:

She makes jokes. Stupid jokes, jokes at the expense of her limp, jokes about her various physical problems to make men uncomfortable. She laughs a lot and loves everything new she can see and find. She feels no shame or insecurities at all when it comes to her disability, perhaps because her mother does, but assumes she'll stay a spinster, and therefore while a bit shy with men due to inexperience, she tends to quickly make herself comfortable because she feels she has nothing to lose. Very lonely. Very romantic. Tried several hobbies and art and anything that could keep her busy, wrote to Leandra and anyone who would write back. Sometimes she embarrasses herself by speaking too much. The fact that her mother acts and talks as if she has some sort of contagious infection is both hilarious and annoying to her. The only thing that tends to make her lose her temper is when the pain in her leg is enough to force her back to bed (because she's human) otherwise she faces obstacles with humor, which generally makes her mother throw fits as she should be crying like her. She refuses to try to disappear and instead wears the most beautiful gowns and does her best to have fun.

If in need of a connection to get to know her in threads, you can assume she immediately befriended my Eloise, who is offended on her behalf at the thought that she is treated that way by her mother and, partly, by society for not 'respecting their antiquated and unrealistic beauty standards'. If you play Eloise, then it's Lady Danbury who introduces her.  

modern verses

Replace carriage with car and her backstory is nearly the same, except that the reason why they didn't put her through cosmetic surgery despite having the money is that her body took years to recover from the wounds, with period infections and inflammations; she was very fragile and since the scars didn't cause her any particular grief the doctors postponed it. She was homeschooled ever since the accident for this reason as well as her parents still being, well, her parents, even if there would not be the same level of stigma anymore. Her parents still made younger kids, not because of inheritance (she can inherit, she doesn't have to marry, and she is more likely to find a husband in modern times) but because her mother could not accept having her as her only daughter.

Bonnie, torn between accepting disability checks and finding very low-paid jobs that would allow her to take breaks when the knee pain demanded it, and thankfully having the privilege to come from a rich family, decided to work towards the goal of working as a manager, with some occasional tutoring kids old enough not to need her being able to run around. She likes to keep busy, even if she has to be mindful of her chronic pain. In all universes her job accidentally leads her to discover far too much which is the only excuse I can find for her to interact with your muses as an otherwise completely normal person.

Informant in Chuck, maybe put to work at the Buymore in one way or another, Survivor in Lost who keeps her disability but is working on her mother-issues. In Fallout she could have entered the pre-war game as Charlie's manager, who was also convinced that Vault Tec was up to no good (and wouldn't have found place in many vaults as a disabled person), which meant reaching Moldaver, who instead took her in and pushed her to use her charisma to find more people for her project. She was put in cryo with Moldaver's group. Can't be a raider with a limp, she still managed to survive out of sheer luck and became a singer who knows everything about everyone (no, I'm not doing it on purpose to write so many people who can sing in the fallout universe, this is a coincidence because of her bridgerton backstory and the fact that I love the actress' voice)
