Miles is teaching Azi one of his tricks 💞

[corallapis]

Miles Maitland and some real-life inspirations for his character.

The reference to “Miles Malpractice” and his Edwardian brougham suggests a nod toward Stephen Tennant, and Tennant made the identification himself. In fact, “Miles Malpractice” is a refinement of later editions. His original, cast aside after complaints, was “The Hon. Martin Gathorne-Brodie,” a composite of three notoriously flamboyant ornaments of the scene, Martin Wilson, Eddie Gathorne-Hardy and Paddy Brodie. Certainly Miles’s vocal style […] seems closest to Gathorne-Hardy. — D. J. Taylor, Bright Young Things

VERY LONG POST THAT IS A CONNECTION BETWEEN MANY THINGS!

right, good omens stars michael sheen and david tennant. amazing, incredible. trivia: they were in the movies bright young things together in 2003 (dir. stephen fry) as well as james mcavoy and bill paterson.

As a furtherconnection(s), good omens has A nightingale sang in brekely square, sung by tori amos (who sang the song Graveyard, which nail gaiman used in the graveyard book).

A nightingale sang in berkely square is also the lyric to the song bright young things, which stephgen fry had the pet shop boys sing for the movie, although it ended up being left out.

neil tennant, singer for the pet shop boys, is actually where david tennant got his name, since david mcdonald was already taken in the guild of actors he wanted to join.

right so the book was based off the novel vile bodies, by evelyn waugh. michael sheens character, miles maitland(malpractice in the book), was based off of real life bright young person, stephen tennant. wow! another tennant!

stephen tennant had brothers, one of which was named david tennant, who we will call david pax tennant to avoid confusion. Right, so david pax tennant had four/five children(this is the inconsistency i was talking about) two of which were named david and georgia tennant.

actor david tennants wife is named georgia tennant.In addition, they met on doctor who, where she played his daughter. spooky, i know.

back to the book, evelyn waught also wrote a book called decline and fall, the movie of which had jack whitehall(who plays newton pulsifer).

david tennant and james mcavoy are both marvel, remember that. adria arjona(anathema device in good omens) is also marvel.

david arnold, who did the good omens soundtrack, also did the sherlock(bbc tv series) soundtrack. this of course stars bandersnatch custardwheel, and martin freeman.

bubblebath copperwire was ALSO in episode six of good omens, as satan. and then of course, both him and martin freeman are marvel, as well as tobey jones, a guest star in sherlock.

james mcavoy was in sherlock gnome, which good enough.

ok, bright young things, we remember that? stephen fry, the director of that, was in sherlock holmes: a game of shadows(2011), the sequel to sherlock holmes(2009). those movies had rdj(marvel), jude law(marvel), rachel mcadams(marvel), and jared harris(marvel).

stephen fry played mycroft, and jude law played watson. this is of course, RELEVENT, when you remember that in the movie Wilde(1999), they slept together. stephen fry ALSO slept with michael sheen in that movie.

james d'arcy(marvel) was an extra in that movie, and guess what? james d'arcy played sherlock in sherlock(2002), which had vincent d'onofrio(marvel) as moriarty. ian mckellan(marvel), was also in a sherlock, mr holmes(2015), i believe.

oh, and jude law was actually in a different sherlock as well, but that one doesnt matter. guy henry(who was in bright young things) was two different sherlocks. he was also in kenneth williams: fantaboulosa!(2006) with michael sheen.

ben kingsley(marvel) was in without a clue(1988).(i feel like im missing an important one, but i dont remember what)

ok so on the note of Shakespeare: first off, david tennant is in like eight. EIGHT.

first one we'll talk about is much ado about nothing. his has catherine tate, who! doctor who. doctor who also has matt smith(marvel), karen gillan(marvel) and guestars gemma chan(marvel), letitia wright(marvel), andrew garfield(marvel), michael sheen, ian mckellan(marvel), bill paterson(remember him?), nina sosanya(good omens,casanova which is totally relevant), fenella woolgar(bright young things), adrian scarborough(bright young things), stephen fry, toby jones(again, marvel!), mark gatiss(bright young things, good omens, and bbc sherlock. also im p sure hes gay). (speaking of gay, neil tennant of the pet shop boys is gay)Another doctor who thingy has hayley atwell(marvel) WHO.

was in brideshead revisited(2008), the book for which was written by evelyn waugh, and one of the characters for which was ALSO inspired by stephen tennant. that or evelyn waughs gay lover from college(literally the plot of brideshead revisted)(evelyn waugh was way cooler when he was gay. then he went conservative. then he died.)

(conservative unlike the (stephen) tennant family tree, a good amount of them were liberal scottish politicians, including one or two of the davids.)

back to much ado about nothing, another version had joss whedon(marvel) and clark gregg(marvel), which admittedly wasnt very good, shakespeare was not written for americans. the kenneth branaugh(marvel) version however, that was the best version ive seen.

its worth noting the david tennant one was like an actual stage production(a hilarious one), the other two were regular movies.

next one we will discuss: hamlet. everyones done hamlet. david tennant. michael sheen. good omens. kenneth branaugh. botany candycrush. jude law. ethan hawke(marvel). ian mckellan. its nearly ridiculous. oh god bright young things by the pet shop boys started playing as i was typing this

david tennant has also done richard ii. so has patrick stewart(marvel).richard iii is one that he has not done, but ian mckellan has. that version (1995) also had rdj. (they kissed lmaoooo)(not in the movie like outside of it)(magneto kissed iron man yes thats what im getting at). so has bonaparte cragglethatch.so has peter dinklage(marvel), and martin freeman. oh, and kenneth branaugh.

david skinny ass teeth(im sorry) also did as you like it, more shakespeare. so did, you guessed it, kenneth branaugh! and his version had alfred molina(marvel).

next we have romeo and juliet, yes david tennant did that, so did james mcavoy in gnomeo and juliet and sherlock gnome.paul rudd(marvel) also did that.

david tennant also did the comedy of errors, and thats the only one i know who did that ngl.he also did the merchant of venice. so did charlie cox(marvel).

i-need-a-more-exciting-way-of-saying-david-tennant-dear-god also did king lear.so did ian mckellan.

righty kenneth branaugh did henry v, which had christian bale(marvel and batman. batman might be relevent i havent decided weather i want to include it.)

he also did all is true, so did ian mckellan, and he did loves labour lost, and so did emily mortimer(bright young things)

shakespeaRe-Told: had james mcavoy, bill paterson, billie piper(rose tyler, i), and nina sosanya.

THE SANDMAN. the sandman(written by neil gaiman, ofc) had david tennant, james mcavoy, and michael sheen in the same episode, as well as georgia tennant.

the sandman also had lourdes faberes(pollution in good omens), and stephen fry in three episodes.

it also had bill paterson.

smaller connections, kinda:-stephen tennant(remember him? brother of david pax tennant?)'s mother had a cousin who was a lover of oscar wilde. I also have a family tree of this family written down, i dont know why.

peter o'toole, who was in bright young things, played casanova in the tv show casanova, the same person david tennant was playing. (they played the old and young versions)

Ill add more connections later probably,for now I'm watching doctor who.

We'll Meet Again

Ginger has never been to a party like the ones Nina and Adam attend, but after enough pestering from Nina he finally relents.

At this party he meets the infamous Miles Malpractice.

[bottlecap-joe-spooky]

Do you know how hard it is to be hyperfixated on ace attorney. I hear one word about THE LAW OF ALL THINGS and I'm hooked because of those gay little lawyers. What is this.

[to-junipterandmars]

my theory is that the closer they are to house the more any one person can break from reality and do the most batshit insane things it's like he unlocks the inherent craziness we're all capable of

[multiverseofwonders]

Not even medicinal malpractice can stop me from needing Dracula carnally.

[ofallthingsnasty]

Well you know what overhaul would do. HAHA. He'd treat you even more like his little patient. Dress you in a surgical gown and sit you in his exam room so he can do all the tests to get to the bottom of whatever illness you have (even if it pronbaly is just a simple cold.)

Imagine him snapping on his gloves real menacingly as he approaches you, your legs dangling over the edge of the table. He'd constantly be looking down at you with a glare, but he's really worried you know? Secretly. Deep down.

He'd make you open your mouth and point a flashlight around, then he'd check your nose- maybe shoving a q tip up inside to send off for tests. He'd lift up your gown and palpatate your tummy, it's super embarrassing and weird. He pokes and prodes and asks "Does this hurt?"

Oh and he makes you pee for him. You claim you can't go? Fine. He starts pulling out a long tube and lubing it up. If you won't pee for him then he'll have to use a catheter. Bad utis can travel to your kidney and kill you, don't you know? It'd be so horrible, you'd beg for him to just let you go by yourself but it's too late.

Next? Rectal thermometer maybe? Sniffling as you're forced to bend over the table and hold yourself apart for him. Or maybe some breathing tests. Maybe he'll get you on a treadmill with some monitors attached to your body and make you run until you almost collapse. The tests are endless. 😌😌😌

😂😭 noooooo- this man, I swear. EXACTLY. That's exactly what he'd do! He's such a little shit with a god complex 😤💕 aaa this is so in-character, I have so little to add!! and also yeshhh overhaul and catheters are always so- unf- tw.yandere, medical malpractice mention, everything sickness

Oh poor, poor you. You're miserable. No matter what bug you caught, it's no fun freezing your ass off on the plastic covers of one of his examination tables. You can barely keep yourself up - and he doesn’t care that the lights are too bright, that you’re shivering and trying to curl into yourself. He’ll make sure to bark something at you the moment you try to lie down - this is his domain and he’ll tell you what to do and when. Don’t you even dare to sneeze without his permission. And you’re so right- you tell him exactly what’s hurting, what feels wrong - but he’ll still make you do a dozen tests that are painfully unrelated to your issues. He just likes to see you suffer a little, likes to see your little tired eyes cling to him like he’s the only thing in the world for you... I feel like he would barely let you get enough rest, even if he doesn’t require your presence - it’s all about making you a little more uncomfortable, to slow down the healing process. He likes you hazy and dependent and pliant. Why not keep it that way for a little while longer? And torturing you a little is just the proverbial cherry on top. He’s going to hold any sickness you ever had over your head for an eternity, too. Even months later, if you dare to push back a little, if you dare to show signs of disobedience - get reading for him to play it up as though he saved your life with all his nonsense. One would think he brought you back from the brink of death with how he twists his words around, it’s infuriating. But imagine if you catch something that makes you... expel any sort of bodily fluid. A fever is almost cute to him, you’re just woozy and disoriented, hell, you’ll even try to cling to him with how out of it you are. Yeah, you’re sweating a lot but that’s nothing - nothing compared to phlegm, pee, vomit or other waste. I feel like doing all these fun little tests would be easy when you’re not an active germ factory. Because once he gets even a speck of snot on him, he’ll break out in the meanest hives you’ve ever seen. I feel like if you keel over after every sip of water to puke it out again, he’d simply lock you into your room. Lets someone else bring you food, water and medicine. As long as you’re breathing, you’ll be fine. If he comes to see you, he’s gonna be red in the face with strained effort and act as though you’re a walking biohazard. Makes snide little comments about the air (as though you have window! You should be glad to have a functioning ventilation system) and keeps his distance. But as soon as your state clears up a little, he’ll make up for all those tests missed... He has to make sure you’re really getting well again, right?

The fun part about working out is gaining 20 pounds of muscle.

The not fun part is dreading going to the doctor because you've had too many lectures previously from docs who didn't even look at you or ask your exercise routine or look at any other of your health indicators and just launched into "You're gaining weight you need to stop that it will harm your health" though funnily enough every time you stop working out sit on your butt all day and lose all that muscle they never seem to worry about that.

(To be fair my current primary care physician has never said a damn thing about my weight but years of negative experience are difficult to ignore.)

[seat-safety-switch]

You might be surprised to hear that every arena of human endeavour has weird perverts who try hard to rattle the cage of normal, hard-working people. For me, it's obviously my vast collection of rattle-trap Malaise Era semi-destroyed vehicles. I've always been interested in meeting freaks in other industries and hearing long diatribes about extreme technical details that I don't really care about, so when my cousin finally retired from his job at the newspaper, I lifted his "Press" pass from his bedroom dresser when he thought I was having a heart attack at Thanksgiving dinner.

Turns out I didn't really need to do that, because my dentist is one of those freaks. One of those accidents of geographic proximity brought him to me, and we became fast friends once we each realized what the other had to offer. Dr. Incisor (not his real name; also potentially not a doctor) had a thing for fixing the absolute worst mouths that he could find. Years of working a boring suburbanite dentist clinic had taken their toll on his sanity: fill this cavity, lecture about flossing, do that root canal. Nothing truly ambitious, not at all like the dentists he would read about as a boy in bicuspid-adventure novels.

His deal was simple: he'd pay me in nitrous oxide, under the table. Finally, I could return to the drag strip and beat my rival, Steve "Nipples" Hemingway, in the eighth-mile with the help of a gaseous power-adder blowing its way through the rings of my exceptionally low-compression Slant Six beneath the dimpled hood of one of my many shitrods. In exchange, he expected me to bring to him what he called "project mouths."

If I could locate the worst teeth in the city, and drag them before him, he wouldn't even charge them for dental work. He would, however, broadcast it on his live Twitch channel, which it turns out violated a whole shitload of medical-privacy laws. I told him from the start that he should have dressed up like a cartoon lion, or at least used an anime girl vtuber, but he insisted that the "cowards of medicine" face him on equal footing as he descended into the molar (and moral) hells I placed before him.

I'll never forget his frenzied, angry screaming as they dragged him off to prison for malpractice. Don't worry, I stayed behind to make sure the clinic nitrous tank was safely discharged. Don't want any firefighters showing up. Those folks can be real freaks when they see a cool oxidizer-involved fire.

[ironasss]

Ok so I finally started watching the sandman, and, disregarding the whole ass plot:

they mention the book Vile Bodies,right? Unless im stupid? In 1926, they mention Vile Bodies. As far as i can tell,the only Vile Bodies book is Evelyn Waugh.

which didnt come out until 1930. Ugh.

Ok next!

The movie adaptation! Bright Young Things (2003)! Has David Tennant, James McAvoy, and Michael Sheen! All of which are in episode eleven!!! Stephen Fry, director of the film! Is in three other episodes!!

Bill Patterson,also in good omens and bright young things,in episode one of the sandman!

Also, they said it would "keep you awake"? My guy that book wasn't very keep you awake.

Just Another Malpractice Monday

House MD Tickle Fic

Lee: House 🏠

Ler: Wilson 🖊️

It was just another Monday at the hospital. Wilson was in the middle of finalizing a request for an MRI for a patient when House arrived 15 minutes late into his office.

“Ah, you’re earlier than usual..”

Wilson remarked, hand already reaching for a pen to write House’s script for the week.

“Yeah, had a drag race with the ambulance on the way here. Apparently, people don’t take too kindly to passing one at 97 miles per hour.”

House tapped his cane against Wilson’s desk as he waited for Wilson to finish his autographing.

“Ah, that does explain the loud honking earlier. You know, the speed limit isn’t a suggestion.”

Wilson began to hand House the script but, playfully pulled it away for a moment before actually handing it off.

As he let the paper go, his fingers trailed against House’s palm and he retracted his hand rather suddenly, shaking nothing off of itas he did.

“AcTu-hally, it’s the minimal required speed for driving. Anyone going slower is a wuss, wuss”

As he left the room, Wilson’s confused looked still covered his face. He could have been going absolutely mad about this…

But, he could swear for just a moment, House chuckled.

No, he couldn’t be…

Could he?

He stuck a pin in this note and went about his day, knowing that he would run into him before Lunch.

Just as expected, or not so expected, House comes into Wilson’s office in the middle of a consult.

He gives Wilson the “I need to bitch about this last patient” look and Wilson gives a knowing eyeroll back.

“I’ll go ahead and get you scheduled in for some more blood work. Let me know if you have any additional symptoms or concerns. Talk to Nurse B on your way out, ok?”

He ushered the patient out and closed the door, moving towards his desk to request the blood work.

House was on clinic duty today and, with it being Monday, it was about as interesting as watching grass grow. He pulls out a chair to sit down and begins to talk about a particularly demanding patient. Wilson looked up from his papers but, his eyes quickly trailed to House’s very talkative hands. That was the issue with testing his theory, House’s hands never stood still.

“Hey, Earth to Space Cadet? Still tuned in?” House interrupted Wilson’s train of thought, waving his hand in front of his face.

It’s showtime, now or never.

Wilson blindly took this opportunity to take the pen he was holding and swipe it across his palm, leaving a black trail in its wake.

This time, instead of just having a hunch, Wilson’s theory is all but confirmed by House moving his other hand to cover the twitching smile creeping across his face cough.

“Funny, you weren’t coughing this morning” Wilson noted

“Better he-head out, can’t have our second best getting sick.” House started to get up to leave, hoping the poor attempt at flattery would get him out of this.

“Ah ah ah, not so fast..”

Wilson pulled at House’s coat sleeve, bringing his hand back to the desk as House stumbles back into his chair. He’s initially caught off guard by the tug and further thrown off by the following sensation at where his pointer finger met his palm. Wilson had started to poke with the pen tip there, beginning to trail to the middle finger.

“What do you think you’re doing?”

House began to cough to cover his snickering as the wobbly smile continued to creep up his face.

“Just testing a medical theory..Tickle in your throat?” Wilson replied as his grin widened into shit eating status, eyebrows raising slightly.

House realized in that moment the kind of rock and hard place he lied in. Pulling away only confirms he’s ticklish and opens a pool of nonsense for later but; if Wilson kept on for much longer (which he definitely planned to), House would break and confirm his theory anyway. It certainly was a tricky situation, especially because Wilson’s theory was far from incorrect.

“This isn’t exactly medically necessAr-!” House is cut off by Wilson starting a swirl pattern at the bottom of his ring finger going toward the center of House’s palm clockwise.

“Could be, you never know!”

Wilson countered, as he swept the line into House’s thumb. House tries closing his hand in but, Wilson laces his fingers into House’s, gently pulling his fingers back to continue the line into his wrist.

“And if it is, I need you to hold still.”

House begins gripping at Wilson’s arm with his other hand in an attempt to free his coat sleeve, revealing a wide smile to Wilson’s delight. As the pen circled closer towards the center of his palm, House let out a wheezy, yet bright laugh.

“I hehe cahAhan’t, okAy?? Whahat tehehEst are you eHeheven running, you dihihihick!?” He reluctantly conceded as Wilson’s eyes lit up with mischief.

He slowed the pattern for a moment to contemplate his not so theory.

“Hmmmmmm…..fascinating. This neurological test isn’t supposed to be hard to stay still for. Unless it..” Wilson quickly scribbled the pen in the center of his palm, keeping a good grip in anticipation of his reaction.

“Tickles?”

House erupted into honest to god titters, unable to free his hand from Wilson’s grasp.

“You dihiHid noT aHahAnswer the question! WhahahAt are you tehehesting for??”

“Ah, you didn’t answer mine either. Is the all knowing Dr. House ticklish?” Wilson knew his answer but, simply couldn’t help himself. He trailed the pen back down to just above House’s wrist, lightly scribbling in circles laterally.

“How dahahAre you aNswer my question with a quEhehestion!”

He stubbornly retorted, now fully knowing this was a set up.

“You’re tehEhesting for nothing!”

“And I’ve got a whole lot of nothing to do for another 15 minutes.. are you sure you don’t want to answer?” Wilson asked, half not serious and half fully serious. “Test just needs a simple yes or no, Gregory…” Wilson scratched at the outside edges of House’s palm erratically.

House was laughing so much that he could no longer comprehend the consequences of what he was about to say.

“OKaHaHaY OkAhAhAY!! YEhEHEhES! WHAhaT dO you wahAhant me to sahahay?! Uncle?? STAhAhAP?!”

Wilson stopped in his tracks, a giddy yet, baffled look took his face over. He chuckled a bit and let go of his hand. House immediately began to rub at his palm, still giggling a bit as the ink smudged across his skin.

Before Wilson could even begin to make up an excuse for his buffoonery, House grabbed his tie with his ink smudged hand and pulled him unprofessionally close.

“If this metaphorically somehow makes its way across the metaphorical grapevine, I will, metaphorically..” House paused, placing his cane under Wilson’s chin.

“No, meticulously…ensure that this little “”medically necessary”” exam, will be graciously returned ten fold.”

He emphasized this by dragging his cane from under Wilson’s chin to his stomach, eliciting a squeaky yelp.

“W-well, it’ll be hard to come up with an excuse for this ink stain on m-my tie that matches the one on your hand..” He stuttered, nervously

“Good point.” He swings his cane around and begins to leave the room. “See you at lunch then.”

Wilson gulped and began searching for a new tie as House left the room.
