Maurice Ships

Last week, I re-watched Maurice (1987) with my friend and we had discussion about how if Clive was being honest with Maurice he might able to have both Maurice and keep his position (including his marriage with Ann). We joked around about the two couples (Maurice/Alec & Clive/Ann) being in a poly (especially after reading Christmas 1928) and here’s my headcanon about their dynamics.

Alec-Ann : the sunshine duo

these always brighten the room every time they enter. they have witty jokes and sometimes they don’t have filters (Alec doesn’t really think before he talk). Alec enjoys getting intro trouble and Ann sometimes joins in - encouraging such behaviour because she finds it funny. When leaves alone, Alec always managed to drag Ann into one of his shenanigans

Clive-Ann : the married couple a.k.a the parents 

they are the parents. being the only one that is officially “married”, when together they they always end up being the responsible ones. Clive is stoic and Ann will end up being her calming self, the charming housewife. They show their affection subtly with light touches and kisses.

Clive-Maurice : the “newlyweds”

they are in constant honeymoon phase. they light soft awkward touches are their default mode. even though others know that they are lovers, they still very skittish when there are other people around them but they still long to touch each other. there is a sexual tension between them that is sharp enough to cut anyone. every time they are together, they just have this blissful look.

Clive-Alec : the bickering duo

they bicker all the time. they argue like old-married couple although they are not in any romantic capacity. Alec always take a jab at Clive’s poshness and Clive will get back at him for his uncouth manners. It is great entertainment for Ann and Maurice. However, they do care for each other. Alec like to fuss over Clive, just like how he likes to fuss over Maurice, although he ends up nagging Clive a lot more. Clive is very passive-aggressive at showing his care for Alec, but he likes it when he able to dress Clive is nice suit.

Ann-Maurice : the awkward duo

they are the quiet ones. leave them alone and they will sit together in silence reading a book. Ann is the talkative one between the two of them and Maurice sometimes feel awkward around Ann, but he is warming up. Ann adores Maurice because Maurice always treat her kindly even before they enter the four-way relationship. Maurice never treats her as a ‘silly woman’ like most of the Cambridge boys. they enjoy having tea time together, sometimes picnic. they found out that they enjoy going on a ride together and just laying down on the grass doing cloud watching. Ann fuss over Maurice a lot.

Alec-Maurice : that PDA couple

they are the couple that you hate so much because they are sickening in love and can’t stop touching each other. Alec will non-stop flirting with Maurice and trying to make him blush at every opportunity. Maurice enjoys playing with Alec’s hair. they are just sickening in love which is very adorable but at the same time made you feel very much lonely.

This is my take of these four characters because I adore them so much now. +)

Clive & Maurice can’t be left alone in the house because they won’t able to take care of themselves. They are useless at household chores or feeding themselves.

Ann & Alec are the ones that good at running the house. They always make sure that Clive and Maurice properly eat. They are the early riser, 5 AM and they are already awake and do most of their to-do lists. Clive & Maurice only wakes up at 8.30 AM.

The four of them enjoy cuddling in front of the fireplace.

Not us (poke @musingsofmyown ) coming up with a ship name for a couple that has no more content and be out since... 2009(?).

The fandom is just consist of me, musings, @johannadc @icatee @dolescumlily and two others...

But Lucifer Box/Charlie Jackpot have us in a chokehold.

Jackbox / Jack-in-the-Box clearly suit these idiots

I stumbled upon a very old video of Sherlock Interview and there was few things that strike me about how Moffat/Gatiss approach to the whole Sherlock show and fans interaction:

1. Moffat said that Sherlock was basically their fanfiction on how they see Sherlock Holmes. Even if the show wasn’t a big success, and if BBC still allowed them to make it, they will make it for each other.

2. Gatiss stated (response to fans reacting to ASiB) fans reactions to what they wrote are very normal - as there is a sense of ownership. If that leads to fans writing fanfiction then that’s it. 

3. In regards to theory, Gatiss stated that if you have to blow up a scene 65x to find a continuity error then you are in the wrong path

in other news... Mark is very sweet to Andrew during the whole interview. He is very attentive and make sure that Andrew able to say something when he nudged Mark. No wonder they were paired together during that Sherlock Con few years ago.

My #1 post of 2022

My love letter to Mystrade Fandom

sometimes you just needs a good environment and motivation to start writing again.

as a fanfic writer I am not someone who will chunk out many new stories in the span of few months. Muse came harder for me and I always write something once I have a clear idea on how it will look like, sometimes i will need that first sentence to form in my mind before i can start writing.

mystrade fandom is the fandom that makes me courageous enough to start writing fanfic. Everyone seems so welcoming and no idea is too silly to write. It felt so good, especially when I am able to process my own emotion through writing.

In 2020 i released few stories for mystrade but most of my time was occupied with another fandom which continued on until 2021. I almost thought that I am losing my touched with mystrade which makes me afraid to write for the fandom again because I just forget about how these characters feel and look like.

Then the whole Rupert’s tweet happened and I felt like i was revived and my muse just went back. Then being part of the mystrade reading club server also brought me joy and muse back. Then of course... there is tumblr. I haven’t been here for years now and when I came back few weeks ago it felt like coming home. My dash is just filled with things I love. My muse are alive and I felt like I can write anything.

Few days ago i saw a post about writing where it reminds me that I don’t have to think about how many words do I have and that the important thing is to write the story - no matter how short it is. It felt like everything make sense now.

I have been writing steadily again. Picking a prompt that makes my muse giddy and trying to write it down and see where the story takes me. I really happy that I am part of mystrade fandom and surrounded by such lovely people!
