I feel like posting this here because it won’t leave my brain, and in fact, I might write something based on this…so here it goes:

A Series Of Unfortunate Events AU where Gustav Sebald and Jacquelyn Scieska swap roles. Gustav and his sister Sally are related to Duchess R., Jacquelyn works with Monty and is a huge well-known filmmaker, Gustav works with her as an actor in most of her films. They’re both in VFD.

“I really don’t get to go out to dinner much. Poe had a very frustrating organizing system and I often have to spend my late hours rearranging it. That and there are very few men or women who can entertain me for the entire length of a meal as you can, my dear Gustav.”

“I’m glad I can regale you so, Jacquelyn. But this is hardly what I’d consider going out to dinner.”

The two, definitely a striking couple with his dark, curly locks and beard paired with a suit that would reveal to be much shabbier than it appeared if one only looked closer and with her looking slightly worse for wear after a long day of working at the bank though her lipstick was such a deep crimson it even rivaled the scarlet tablecloths, gazed around the mostly deserted restaurant. It was rather late into the night as to accommodate for both of their busy schedules that kept them apart far too often for either of their liking, otherwise he would have prepared something much more intimate. However, Gustav knew how to pull strings and this string in particular involved a deal with a volunteer and restaurateur allowing him to have a quiet, romantic dinner after hours. Of course, he had to agree to direct and script a commercial for them, but it would be worth it if he could have just one real-- dare he say it-- date with the woman he was so deeply affectionate for.

“I think it counts. It’s lovely and there’s none of the usual wait.” A lovely smile crossed her face and he was certain his heart would melt right there.

His fingers brushed over hers and he could have sworn he felt a spark between them, but it was quickly pushed aside from both of their minds as the plate of spaghetti was placed before them. A slyly placed wink from the waiter had Gustav feeling like he had suddenly gone back to when they were silly teenagers again who didn’t even know they were flirting with each other with their sheer awkwardness and natural sway to each other.

They ate in a comfortable silence for some time, him allowing her to take as much as she liked, knowing how much time she spent stuck at the bank with that brainless oaf of a boss. How she could even stand working there was frankly beyond him, but he always admired her strength.

And as always, Gustav was content to just watch her with the same enamored look he always seemed to get around her. But his gaze was interrupted as he found himself starting on a noodle only to meet her lips. They came together in a kiss, but she didn’t let go, holding him by the back of his neck.

After a few moments, Jacquelyn pulled away, her eyes locking on his as she whispered two words, practically onto his lips.

“My place.”

Gustav had never sprung to his feet so fast before in his life.

i’m alive. filming in st. hiems. come quickly. -g.s. 

That’s all Jacquelyn needed. It was short and cryptic and it relieved her to know that one of her closest colleagues was still alive. Hearing him utter the familiar motto and then go silent when waiting for the Baudelaire children had left her worried for the days following their date of sorts-- she was reluctant to call it such-- but now she could rest easy knowing he was at least capable of contacting her.

THE CONTENTS OF GUSTAV’S COMMONPLACE BOOK:

numerous codes and ciphers of varying complexity: strange writings that look to be a language of some sort cover not only full pages but the margins of unrelated pages as well. explanations are seen next to the diagrams but they are hardly coherent, likely codes as well.

a recipe for coconut cream cake: there’s a small cut out from what seems to be a cooking magazine ( he’s not the type to tear anything from a book no matter how delicious the pictures look. ) glued inside, captioned ‘monty’s favorite’

several potential titles for future movies: ‘ogres in the old west’ ‘dwarves at the disco’ and ‘i married a possessed sock puppet!’ to name a few.

shopping lists for pet supplies and groceries as well as a copious amount of canned peaches: i had no idea snakes could even wear sweaters, or that the incredibly deadly viper enjoyed peach cobbler so much.

a remedy for the smell of horseradish and bitter apples, presumably homemade: it’s a necessity and also smells quite lovely. may be worth a try

theater reviews from the daily punctilio: while many of them are less than praiseworthy, they do mention the attractive appearance of dr. sebald himself and contain snide comments written in the margins, presumably by dr. sebald as well.

various half-finished crosswords: it appears he has plenty of time to start them as well as paste them inside yet can hardly find time in his busy schedule to complete them.

a photograph from the set of his debut movie, ghosts in the desert: from left to right, one can see his sister, sally, dr. sebald, dr. montgomery and jacquelyn scieska. they all appear to be very happy.
