concept pics and behind the scenes stuff

these pics, and this one of course

hiiiiiiiii! if you’re here from my fic, welcome to all the little rabbit trails of my headcanon for weekender, including a lot of stuff I hinted at in the fic -> SPOILERS AHEAD

let’s start with Roman’s new watch:

the date! Succession has played pretty fast and loose with what year it is/how much time passes. here’s how I picked this date: the show aired autumn 2018, which is a midterm election year, and that’s confirmed by Shiv and her Senate candidate. but we know it is NOT a general election year because Senator Eavis has only just started his presidential campaign. reasonable to assume he’s two years from a general election. So the conclusion then is the Mencken v. Jimenez election takes place in 2020. this theory is undercut by Logan Roy obit in s4, where it claims Logan was 84 when he died. And s1 opens with his 80th birthday. but whatev!! so I did the math on what day in April they had the pick the president episode in s3, and what lined up with Michelle Ann’s quote about Election Day, and it would have been April 24, 2020.

Why I choose to believe Mencken bought him that watch: If you pay close attention to Roman, you can see that Roman is pretty faithful to his grey Rolex. We see him wearing it exclusively through seasons 1-3. The other Roys circle through a variety of watches, most notably Ken and Logan. But Roman seems to just have the one.

Then in season 4, he’s wearing a new watch, the blue and silver IWC. It’s an interesting departure. And one could, if one is a freak, choose to interpret that as a hint to a gift from someone new in his life. Like someone that was introduced at the end of season 3.

The Rolex Roman wore through the first 3 seasons is a Rolex Datejust, which is supposed to retail between $10-20k. But the IWC? Costs about $4k. It is the least expensive watch worn by anyone in Succession. And if you’re a rich snob, which the Roys are, almost distinctively cheap? Why would Roman, who is incredibly image conscious, choose to wear such a cheap (by his insane family’s standards!) watch? HMM. CURIOUS. JS!

the Mencken family

the Menckens’ lake house is near Asheville, NC. which, yes, is a very liberal town, but also a popular tourist spot. Mencken’s home district is in Charlotte, NC in a neighborhood called Providence Plantation (on a street named Silver Fox Road) (because it was just too funny a coincidence to pass up) (weirdly those districts 1. just got redistricted, they added a 14th district last year, and 2. it is currently repped by a Dem irl). HIS district is the 8th, essentially part in a Charlotte suburb and the rest is like a +12 R majority.

Sarabeth (his wife) comes from old money, which is how they can afford 3-4 properties.

Part of the reason I love writing Roman & Mencken is the dichotomy and struggle that’s built into their situation. So, while I wrote something that is very sweet (for them), it’s also dark as hell.

1)Mencken took his mistress on a vacation to a house he shares with his wife (that she probably bought because she’s the one with money) Jail!! Straight to jail!! And at the end of anointed, we see Mencken is an absent (deadbeat) father… he could have spent a weekend with his damn kids for a change! instead of once again putting his own interests ahead of the people who love him.

2) speaking of which…. I know everyone was v. stressed in anointed about what was going to happen to Roman after Mencken made a deal with that old creep, then we saw that Roman’s anxiety clouded his perspective. They finally talk about it in weekender and that’s kind of the end of it (although, Mencken doesn’t actually deny that he would do something like that...)

3) I considered adding a chapter of Mencken POV to this but I cut it because it would give away too much of what’s going to happen in a later story. but uh, don’t forget about ch. 2 👀

4) I said this one of the comments on ao3, but I think it’s so funny that hardcore conservatives love songs that are about them being the baddies. amazing example is Bruce Springsteen’s “Born in the U.S.A.” which so many conservatives have tried to play at their rallies and Bruce told them to f o. It’s like when the Vatican asked Hozier to come there to play “Take Me To Church” 🤡. So that playlist Roman made has a bunch of those songs on it (and the last couple were like, Roman being suuuuuper unsubtle lol)

And that’s all, folks! See ya next time ♥️
