feeling inordinately soft at the realisation that at the end of the Father Brown cult ep (really not my favourite), when sid and susie say they've heard that mrs mccarthy stole her strawberry scone recipe and mrs m (quite fairly) takes their scones back and has to chase sid off-screen for his, father brown quietly offers his one to susie.

context is that susie is officially hired by them to clean the presbytery and she has a rough time in this ep, and father brown generally takes any and every opportunity to have sweet things (good for him dot png.)

inordinately soft about it

#this is in fact a necessary moment of loving playfulness after a rather grim ep so I appreciate it #father brown #iroh-coded he's iroh-coded. I'm so normal about this #I was about to say he's less dippy than iroh #but given the ''oops I just took drugs via a cake left out for scandalous guests in a scandalous house. for the second time'' incident #well. bless him.#going from s11 to s1 is weird because I actually have no clue if s11 brenda is hired by them or not #and while I'm Very glad we're not constantly reminded she's a servant it's jarring going back to this #where we are in fact frequently reminded that s1 susie is a servant #mrs mccarthy be nicer challenge #I get that she fulfills a specific role in the story and sort of balances out father brown so it doesn't feel totally improbable but still #anyway. yes I am in fact fine (no I am not) just pausing to have feelings about tiny acts of kindness by fictional characters.#falderal speaks
