It’s interesting how Don probably has the reaction to Joan that’s the closest to what she’s aiming for in the office—he’s charmed by her beauty and style in a heterosexual way without making constant inappropriate comments or even actively wanting to sleep with her, and he cares about her well-being—and it manifests in ways that are deeply unhelpful to her and make her absolutely furious with him.

In the months since their marriage had been officially recognized, Joan had recieved three calls asking her to come collect her husband for an injury. This was nothing like any of them. Drugged. And they'd said it so casually like it didn't even matter, but by the time she reached her husband's bedside, it was terribly obvious how much it mattered.

Her poor boy, who hadn't even drank until her father had gotten to him, who had never willingly altered his state of mind, who so desperately clung to his beautiful, rational mind as his primary worth... To see him in tears, writhing with discomfort from the enormous dose of some mystery drug, brought her swiftly to tears as well. "It's alright, darling. It's alright. I'm here." She stroked his cheek and then ran her hand through his hair, hoping the familiarity would be comforting. "I won't leave you alone, love. I promise."

JOAN.

Dauphine of France. Princess of Scotland. Princess of Albion. Queen Regnant of Scotland. Queen of England. The Half Breed Heathens Whore Of A Wife. My Darling Wise Thistle. Little Wise Eyed. Jeanne.

Though Joan’s father died not six months after her birth his love for her was remarked upon - indeed it was said that he could hardly bear to be apart from her. His death was something her mother Mary never recovered from despite two subsequent marriages and the reminder of him in her black haired and grey eyed daughter seems to have been a mixture of grief and solace to her. Joan proved to be a serious child - interested in books, archery and riding but with a keen talent for music she was included in and educated in rulership from a young age, particularly by her paternal grandmother who remarked that she saw ‘very much of Marguerite of Navarre in her’ she was excellent at politics, at rulership and in her concern and interest in the lives of all her people but she was not warm and nor did she have the charisma and ability to draw the eye of her mother, something that drew unfavourable comparisons. Her marriage was made out of pragmatism on her part and no one was more surprised than Joan when it turned into love.

[samandthebands]

sometimes being a teenage boy is having a deep and conflicting relationship with the catholic church, and sometimes it's choosing Joan of Arc as a patron saint because you had a crush on her at age 8

14, 28, 29.

14. Current word count of all your main wips?

Meemaw is a little old school and starts in a notebook. I love y’all dearly but I’m not counting that. Probably 300 or do words in there and about 350 that have made it to a word doc. Work injury really slowed me down

28. Favourite songs at the moment?

29. What was your first fandom you were in? Did you make any art/fanfic for it?

Star Wars. I saw the special editions in the theater when was 11 or 12. I was hooked the moment I saw Luke Skywalker come into frame. Immediately began consuming Star Wars media. At one point I owned 50 of the expanded universe novels and had read even more.

I never made any official fanfiction or art. But my best friend and I created an entire AU to put our self inserts in. We probably spent 2 whole years reinforcing this fantasy between us.

They say that love′s a gentle thing

But it's only brought me pain

For the only boy I ever loved

Has gone on the morning train

I never will marry

I′ll be no man's wife

I expect to live single

All the days of my life

Well the train pulled out

The whistle blew

With a long and a lonesome moan

He's gone he′s gone

Like the morning dew

And left me all alone

I never will marry

I′ll be no man's wife

I expect to live single

All the days of my life

Well there′s many a change in the winter wind

And a change in the cloud's design

There′s many a change in a young man's heart

But never a change in mine

I never will marry

I′ll be no man's wife

I expect to live single

All the days of my life

A song of Joan Baez

Morseverse is so afraid of women who don't need men to live fulfilling lives it's mind boggling sometimes.

If they are lucky enough to be main characters, these women are either eventually subdued (a la Joan into a traditional marriage) or at least romantically left paired off and pregnant with a good old man (Laura) and woe betide them if they are minor characters because then they get viciously punished for their sins (the prof from Lewis: generation of vipers) or turn out to be freaks driven to murder by their repressed desire for men all along (the prof from Lewis: old, unhappy, far off things).

Like it's a good thing this verse has such compelling relationships between the male leads because otherwise I'd be throwing hands on the regular (ง'̀-'́)ง
