Behind the scenes pictures of Hulu’s The Mysterious Benedict Society filming in Vancouver yesterday.

One of the people who took the pictures said that there were “lots of extras” dressed in “late 40′s/50s attire”, perhaps providing a clue towards the show’s aesthetic look.

sugar bowl gen fic recs

this got a big long so i’m putting it under the cut

all fics on this list are safe for work, i’ll probably be making another list for the not safe for work ones

enjoy!

call me from the road by @deweysdenouement ; snickets & denouements & beatrice & bertrand

a story of interconnected scenes about of how these friends, family, lovers, and sometimes enemies grew up in vfd, from those (comparatively) innocent childhood years to when they’re all grown up, to when they lost so many people but they’re gathering together, the remaining survivors, to create a new beginning. very many emotional moments and just such a overwhelming amount of love between all of them that makes my heart ache and also made me cry.

beatrice by @whoslaurapalmer ; beatrice/lemony, also ft. kit, r, bertrand, olaf

lemony investigates the murder of beatrice - or so he thought he was doing. canon divergence au in a noir setting. absolutely in love with the whole atmosphere and vibes of this one, detective noir and murder investigation that isn’t what it looks like in the surface. all the character dynamics, platonic or more, friends or enemies, are so good and a deep look into lemony’s feelings and reflections of what happened at the end of atwq. amazing plot and very tight knitted, one of the first fics i’ve read in this fandom and i still think about it a lot.

place daturas on my grave by @ceruleanvulpine ; kit & quigley

a conversation between kit and quigley, with a lot of kit’s inner thoughts, especially about losing her brothers. there’s a quiet yet overwhelming kind of sadness in her here and it absolutely breaks my heart. very very good kit characterization.

close encounters of the sibling kind by @deweysdenouement ; jacques & kit

5 times jacques and kit almost ran into each other in the city, and the one time they did. lots of snicket siblings feels, small details of what kit remembered about jacques that she would recognize anywhere, a cameo of dewey, and j&k talking about lemony.

Uninvited by @parsleysoda1984 ; beatrice/esme

esme shows up at beatrice’s wedding reception. very good snicketverse narrating style and also excellent dialogue between beatrice and esme, including monologues from both sides and commenting on each other’s choices of language, and also revelations of certain backstories. absolutely love the tension between them.

Double Edged by @lyeekha ; lemony/ernest

a card that read “the manager requests your presence” brings lemony to a particular room at hotel denouement, and back and forth conversations of trying to obtain and obscure information ensues. very fun character dynamics and great characterizations, and the lemony-voice is excellent and very on point.

An Eye For An Eye by @ladynoblesong ; beatrice/esme

beatrice and esme, through the years, featuring longing and want mixed with bitterness and hatred, grief, thievery, and vengeance. a deep insight into esme’s thoughts and feelings with regards to beatrice that makes me feel for her. amazing characterizations.

The Unpleasant Arrival of Dramatic Irony by @parsleysoda1984 ; jacques/jerome, also ft. esme

jacques visits jerome and tries to warn him about certain things and people. all the unsaid feelings and unspoken secrets, small details about jacques that kept stealing jerome’s attention, physical touches such as a hand on his shoulder that made jerome stay still. also features the animosity between esme and jacques, and just in general very good dynamics study of the three of them.

slow dancing in a burning room by @littlesnickets ; beatrice/lemony, beatrice/bertrand

in depth character study of beatrice, from her childhood to motherhood to the very end, all the glamorous glory and all the flaws, and the growth that comes with it. amazing insight into different relationships of her lives. very good characterization and very vivid description, i can feel her emotions throughout reading. beautiful and makes my heart ache.

Lonely Souls by @virtualfindingsdocumented ; kit/ellington

kit and ellington, through the years, from their first meeting to years years after kit died and ellington meeting her daughter, from reluctant allies who had to work together to friends to lovers to friends again. exploring the complicated relationship they had, tangled with kit’s involvement in vfd and all the work she was trying to do. also features interesting occasional insights into vfd politics

and i've written pages upon pages trying to rid you from my bones by @whoslaurapalmer ; beatrice/bertrand/lemony

the famous 200 paged breakup letter (just not 200 paged). featuring talks of younger and happier days, and all the shared moments and all the small details they know about each other, but also the heartwrenching part about how this isn’t going to work out, the hard decisions that needed to be made, and how sometime love isn’t enough. a mixture of moments that delight me and the ones that break my heart and very very good characterizations of all of them.

Charles Remembers by @gellavonhamster-remade ; kit & charles

backstory for how charles got into vfd. very very interesting and i absolutely love the dynamics between them here, charles’ impression of kit and him remembering their first interaction, and also some insight into the snickets from how kit talked about her brothers. reading this makes me feel like i’m watching an old movie, probably black and white, with all the vintage vibes .... exquisite

Rattle by @lesbianscieszka ; kit & jacques

a rattle in the taxi led to kit trying to figure out the issue, untangle ratchet straps, and think about jacques. she remembered the things she said as she worked on it, and how safe he used to drive, and how that didn’t help in the end. very many snicket twins feels and insightful looks into their characters. a quiet kind of sadness.

An attempt to help a friend correct a passive moment by @littlestsnicket ; lemony & daniel

a conversation between lemony snicket and daniel handler about lemony wanting a pair of bright red shoes, which led to daniel buying the said pair of shoes. very fun and enjoyable to see daniel handler in fics - we know he is canonically a character in the snicketverse and the agent for lemony - and i love the general tone and vibes of this, feels very them.

3, 6, 11, 12 :)

3: an interesting Asoue au you’ve never heard of/thought of before this year, wether it’s yours or someone else’s.

I would have to say @unfortunate-stranger-losers six Baudelaires au or @littlesnickets nine Baudelaire’s au. It’s so cool and adding more Baudelaires to mix is the way to go.

6: Current favorite brotp, and a song for them

I’m really liking a Quigley and Carmelita brotp right now and I think a song for them would be Riptide by Vance Joy.

11: Favorite Asoue quote

“People aren't either wicked or noble. They're like chef's salads, with good things and bad things chopped and mixed together in a vinaigrette of confusion and conflict.”

12: Favorite atwq quote

Okay I haven’t finished atwq yet and I haven’t read the previous books in like a year. This really doesn’t count but I do like the “do the scary thing first get scared later.” quote

The Mysterious Benedict Society (2021) Updates and Potential Release Date

After doing some research on the websites of various Canadian film/tv unions, here’s what I was able to piece together about the show.

Filming Began : August 26th, 2020  Filming Ends: January 19th, 2021

Because there aren’t many genre streaming tv dramas with child leads, the closest equivalent to this show in terms of filming is the Netflix adaption of the Lemony Snicket books.

Each episode of that series took roughly two and half weeks to film and that timeline matches up pretty exactly to this show’s schedule, once we factor in a short break over Christmas.

This schedule means that the season will probably contain around six to eight 45 minute episodes and will likely premiere at some point during the spring of 2021. My money would be on either May or June, unless it gets pushed back because of COVID again.

I was also able to find out who the directors of the first five episodes are, and have listed some of the other films/tv shows they have directed.

Episode 1 - James Bobin (Muppets Most Wanted, Alice Through the Looking Glass, Dora and the Lost City of Gold)

Episode 2 - Greg Beeman (Heroes, Stargirl, Smallville)

Episode 3 - Glen Winter (Legends of Tomorrow, Supergirl, Doom Patrol)

Episode 4 - Wendy Stanzler (Sex & The City, Parks and Recreation, Gotham)

Episode 5 - Karyn Kusama (Jennifer’s Body, Æon Flux, Destroyer) This is the episode that is currently being filmed right now.

Here are some more pictures of the show’s filming locations that I was able to find on social media. These ones show the crew filming at the location for the Nomansan Island Bridge. 

And these ones are of them filming in a location that is likely part of the L.I.V.E. complex’s exterior.

I never talk about the three Violet’s au here anymore, but I’d like for you guys to know that show! Quagmires exist in this au. I figure I’d show! Violet is here, then every show character can be lol. Or movie.

Anyway, they have the same name’s as @littlesnickets’s six Quagmires in here nine Baudelaires au. The only difference? They aren’t step-siblings.
