A round-up of ministry technology:

Chapter Two: The Cardinal

Copia is carrying the Siemens R836 stereo, produced c. 1988

Chapter 5: The Call

The TV in the hospital is the Toshiba T277Z, produced c. 1977

p.s., the first clip playing on the TV is twins running away in Chapter 1 :-)

Chapter Seven: New World Redro

Nihil's typewriter is the Olympia SM9, produced c. 1965-1968

Chapter Ten: Homecoming and Special Guests

The record player in Cardi's room is actually not vintage! It's the Victrola 3-in-1 Bluetooth Record Player, produced c. 2017

To get deep into minutiae, the other thing they pan past on the shelf that looks like an antique cathedral radio is actually a piece of ceramic -- you can see it's holding a book. It's made from a commercially available plaster mold, namely the Duncan DM-355 B, which was manufactured in the late 70s. Here are photos of the same ceramic with a different glaze, and the mold itself :-)

Chapter Twelve: Ghost Goes Hollywood

Cardi's camcorder is part of the Sony CCD-TRVX5 series, produced c. 1998

(My understanding is the CCD-TRV75, 85 and 93 all have the same body -- but it's one of those.)

Chapter 16: Tax Season

Cardi's TV is the Samsung BT-317TR, produced c. 1984

He is, of course, playing the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), produced c. 1986-1990

The radio is the Motorola TT23FS, produced c. 1968

The phone gadget is the Tele-Rest, produced c. 1958

The alarm clock is a Lawson Model 215 Sierra, produced c. 1948-1981 (Lawson clock history seems... complicated)

As for the phone itself... I can tell you it's this exact phone, since this prop house seems to have supplied all the props in this video, but there are too many identical puke-green rotary phones produced between the 1940s and 1970s for me to pretend I can tell which one it is (same goes for the other two rotary phones in Chapter Five).

Rite Here Rite Now

The TV backstage is (probably) a Magnavox 20MT4405/17, produced c. 2006

If you turn the brightness on RHRN way the fuck up, you can see a piece of tape over the brand badge on the TV. (But that can't stop me!!!)

I'm sure most of the tech choices are just for humor and Tobias's personal nostalgia as a child of the 80s, but I do love way all of the old tech characterizes the ministry. It's not clear if they're just luddites, cheapskates, out of money, too bureaucratically inefficient to upgrade (like the government!) or if it's something completely different. But that's why set dressing is fun, it tells stories indirectly :-)

Saw that you wanted fluffy requests! Maybe Copia and (gender neutral) reader cuddling and being silly and affectionate? Make it as sappy as you like <3

I did HC's for this. Just to let anyone know, I don't do x reader fics because I struggle with putting a personality on the reader.

Copia X Reader — Fluffy HCs

He has fairly bad anxiety so he prefers to stay in with you instead of go out.

He'll show you his collection of video games and offer to let you play on or ask to play with you.

Will whine and get sassy if you win though because he's a sore loser.

Another thing he likes about staying in is the comfort of wearing what he wants. Like sometimes you'll both just end up in your underwear on his bed.

He's bought you matching pajamas before and wants to wear them he will get sad if you don't.

He does odd shit while you're cuddling. You could be trying to sleep and he's laying on his back, tossing a stuffie up and down and just going "aww :(" when he drops it and then continuing again.

Speaking of cuddling, he cannot sit still. You two are moving positions every three minutes to fit his comfort.

He's a bed hogger. Sprawls himself out all the time. You will barely have room. It's okay though, it's endearing. And he'll let you sleep on top of him.

If you can get around on smaller wheels in any way at all (bike, skateboard, roller skates, etc) he will challenge you to races around the Ministry.

He lets you hold his rats and will show you all the tricks he's taught them.

He has a collection of physical copies of every Dracula movie you could ever think of and he will beg you to watch them with him so he can info dump and stuff.

Speaking of info dumping, he's a history nerd and he'll probably cry happy tears if you listen to him rant.

He never really says it out loud, but he wants you to kiss him pretty much 24/7. All he wants is to feel your soft lips peppering little kisses all over his face and making him giggle. If you do it, he's putty in your hands.

He's very easily flattered. If you tell him something small like his hair looking good, he'll be all bashful and smiley.

He loves pillow talk so much. He loves when you two lay together against each other and tell how much you love one another or tell your life story or even just dumb comments or small talk about the weather. He just really appreciates those little moments.

He often gets insecure about his chub or the size of his belly or thighs and will immediately go to you for comfort. And that's because the way you blow raspberries on his belly or kiss his thighs or pat his bottom all the time gives him a little more confidence because then he knows that those parts of him are loveable.

He knows how you like your coffee/tea. He originally wrote it down in his wallet but then he started buying you your favorite so much that he knew it word for word.

He gives you flowers on the regular and Mountain teases him about being in love whenever he comes to the garden to grab them.

He buys you the most random things at times... When he gets back from his tours, he might have a fake skeleton or a plastic squeaky rat from Halloween or strange souvenirs like bone rings or little animal figures. Sometimes, he just gets excited and wants to show you and sometimes it's because they made him think of you.

He tells you everything all the time. Venting, gossip, deep secrets, etc. It all goes to you because he trusts you more than anyone.

Sometimes you go on double dates with a couple of his ghouls. He gets really awkward and embarrassed about it though.

Sometimes he blurts things out on accident and gets flustered about it. You could be talking about the patterns on a giraffe and he'll randomly tell you how beautiful he thinks you are. He doesn't really like that he does it, but the words land on the tip of his tongue because they overflow his brain.

He's so super lovesick for you. An utter fool. He stares at you dreamily during work sometimes, or when you're just going about your daily life.

He tries to write you sweet notes and letters but he always gets frustrated because he doesn't think he sounds poetic enough. You find them anyways though, they're sweet.

Dracopia♥️💋

It's finally finished! It was so hard to do the shading and lighting, but I really like it now! I hope you like it too♥️

I've always been a bit too obsessed with vampires, so I love the Dracopia concept!

I took inspiration from Andreas Terlaak's photo of Copia for the pose! The photo is great and immediately gave me this idea!
