#Around The World In Eighty Days

Accurate

[erobuck]

There are 3 categories that fit David Tennat Characters

Hear me out. I think most if not all of David's characters can be sorted into 3 categories:

Neurospicy Twink

Sad Dad

Distinguished Psycho

Allow me to demonstrate

Neurospicy Twink:

Sad Dad:

Distinguished Psycho:

And of course the character that fits the trifecta: Dad, Twink and Psycho all in one

Only like 5 episodes into this show, I love it

It seems I didn't post this More kids!!!

Character: Benedict Phileas Jonathan Fogg, or Benedict Fogg, to friends - Benny. Fandom: Around the World in Eighty Days (1972-1973) He is the only son of Phileas Fogg and Belinda Maze (now Belinda Fogg). A kind boy with a heart of gold. Polite, resourceful, fair, but as befits a child, he is also at times naughty, mischievous and playful (for the most part he can behave this way with Passepartout, among the rest he is an innocent angel). Excellent friendly relations with Fix, who by that time had corrected himself, and thanks to Benny, he slowly stops talking to himself.

***

Character: Jillian Skellington, aka Jill Fandom: The Nightmare Before Christmas Daughter of Jack and Sally Skellington. Like her mother, she was put together piece by piece. Among the Halloween Kids, she is the youngest and the only one who was not born naturally. A quiet, modest, but talented and well-read person. She plays the violin quite well and is interested in taxidermy. Good relationship with parents. Unlike Majoria, Jill considers PDP to be quite interesting guys and dreams of making friends with them (she also fell in love with Deimos at first sight and hopes that he will reciprocate her feelings. Still, Sally herself noticed good potential in the witch boy)

Well, and, in fact, their parents:

…And to think that I didn’t quite like the first episode and considered not watching the rest! Phileas Fogg turned out to be such a darling, so sad and so delightfully tormented. Yes, he’s not the Phileas Fogg from Jules Verne's book, cold-blooded and self-assured, but I gradually came to appreciate this version more. I have a thing for neurodivergent characters—and David Tennant always delivers :)

This idea has been bugging me for a while, so I decided to turn it into a thing and now you all have to suffer with me. (tagging @thinking-with-quadrants)

Welcome to the shitpost titled:

(drumroll please)

How is Phileas Fogg like a Disney Princess?

Item 1: Does he have magic hair?

✔ Can we even argue the point?

Item 2: Magic hands?

✔ You know it

Item 3: Do animals talk to him?

✔ I mean... probably not saying anything nice, but... still counts right?

Item 4: Was he poisoned?

✔ The proof is in the pudding... er... datura seeds

Item 5: Cursed?

✔ Okay, not really, but... just humor me

Item 6: Kidnapped or enslaved?

✔ Kinda?

Item 7: okay, we're skipping the making a deal with an underwater sea witch bit for obvious reasons, although I must say, I wouldn't mind seeing Fogg with a merman tail 😏

Item 8: Ever had a true love's kiss?

✔ Oh, we're definitely gonna give him that one

Item 9: Have daddy issues?

✔ And then some....

Item 10: Do people assume all of his problems got solved because a big strong man showed up?

✔ *insert a shit-eating grin here*

Welp, I'm gonna go hide now

I didn't think I could ever see david tennant playing a more pathetic character than crowley but then i starting around the world in 80 days

Boyfriend Phileas Fogg

He would be a great boyfriend or husband ngl. Even though he's very stoic and quiet, he still finds ways to show you affection.

He wouldn't show you affection in public too much but when he does, it's mostly subtle like soft squeezes to your hand, moving your stray hairs away, and help you adjust your clothes when they're in an uncomfortable position.

You should expect LOTS and LOTS of gifts, he's a wealthy guy with money and won't hesitate to spend a pretty dime on you. You'd frequently wake up to gifts next to your bed, accompanied with a little note. Which you always made sure to return with affection.

Sweet little notes left around for you—sometimes poetry, other times straightforward ones like “I love you.” Which never failed to make your heart melt.

He's very adventurous (he's the main character in a travel book cmon), so he'll often invite you on many of his expeditions outside and inside of the country.

True to his organized nature, he’s never late to dates, always punctual and often the one to plan everything down to the last detail. You barely needed to lift a finger when he's around.

Yet, behind his quiet demeanor, he has a romantic side. A side you can only see.

Headcanon # 1: These three definitely have a thing going on. Abigail and Passepartout have a passionate fling (with a bit of playful Femdom involved), and for a while Phileas Fogg is only watching them from afar with those sad eyes of his, until they very firmly say he's a part of the family :) He might (or might not) want anything carnal. He's theirs anyway.

Headcanon # 2: Phileas Fogg is a fobwatched Time Lord :)

If uh Phileas Fogg had wings, what colour do you think they would be?
