This is the only place I could find Joy’s films and Lucille’s didn’t have it in her Filmography that I saw.

No matter what happens it will always boil down to "Fucking Jack Barlowe". Man is the new Power Rangers villain he comes back EVERY WEEK.

All Passion Spent: Episode 2 (1.2, BBC, 1986)

"You really must not speak as though my life has been a tragedy. I had everything that most women would envy; I had position, comfort, children, and a husband I loved. Truly loved, Mr. Fitzgeorge. I had nothing to complain of."

"Except that you were defrauded of the one thing that mattered, face it, Lady Slane: your children, your husband, your splendour... were nothing but obstacles that kept you from yourself. Perhaps you were too young to know any better, but when you chose that life, you know, you sinned against the light."

"You're right, of course."

"Course I'm right, old Fitz may be a comic figure, but he retains some sense of values."

"Don't scold me any more, Mr. Fitzgeorge. I assure you that if I did wrong, I paid for it. But you must not blame my husband."

"Oh, I don't. According to his lights, he gave you everything you could desire. He merely killed you, that's all. Men do kill women, and most women enjoy being killed - so I am told."

Leviathan Panel at Otakon 2024

I was OVERJOYED to be at the Leviathan panel during Otakon 2024! I'll do my best to recap it below, but if you want a more coherent play by play, this Twitter user did an excellent job.

I've got a handful of photos, recap of Sharp Gender Discussion, plus misc. things I remember.

Not everyone was up for the entire time, but I snapped this photo near the end when everyone was on stage! From left to right: Waki Kiyotaka (Studio Orange), Yoshihiro Watanabe (Studio Orange), Scott Westerfeld, Christophe Ferreira (Quibic Pictures), Justin Leach (Quibic Pictures), Katrina Minett (Quibic Pictures), and Diana Garnet (ending theme vocalist).

New concept art! Looks like Dr. Barlow, Klopp, Alek, and Sharp, right before the Germans attack the Leviathan.

More under the cut!

Alternative shot of that art bc I couldn't get my lighting right:

Clanker and Darwinist technology designs. Watanave explained that Studio Orange's early days were spent doing contract work on Gundam anime, so I can't wait to see how that translates to the Clanker machines.

Some more concept art:

By the way, the entire series is being adapted at once - so we'll get the complete story at once! That in mind, the second image here makes me think of that maneuver near the beginning of Goliath to pick up the cargo.

Sharp!!! Look at them!!!

I don't have much to say about these but I'm fairly sure I hadn't seen them before. I am wondering if they downsized Alek's crew for the sake of the story, or perhaps we just haven't seem Bauer and Hoffman yet.

We got some new character art! The panel was very cryptic about who the character designer is. Apparently they're pretty well known, but they can't share it yet!

Volger I am so sorry your photo was unfocused. Forgive me.

The panel jokingly described him as "Alek's dad," which feels accurate. And maybe I misunderstood, but it sounds like he plays an even more important role in the anime than he does in the books. I've always considered Volger to be a pretty important character, so I wonder what else he'll do in this new series.

Klopp looks exactly like how I pictured him in my mind!! They said if Volger is Alek's dad, then Klopp is like his mom. Which is very fair but also made me laugh a lot.

Dr. Barlow!! She looks amazing. There was a lot of talk about the dynamic between her and Volger and how they're often playing mental chess games with each other. I'm really glad they're leaning into that dynamic.

And one more concept art:

This looks like the visit to Istanbul, which I'm desperately hoping means we'll see my favorite chaotic bisexual, Lilit.

That's all of the photos I have! They also showed us a preview of the show plus a live performance of the ending song with Diana Garnet. No video recording was allowed and I don't break rules, but believe me when I tell you it was stunning. The world feels so full of life and adventure and I can't wait to see the final show.

Tbh I was too busy holding back tears of joy but one thing I remember distinctly is there's a shot of Sharp getting ready for the day, and we see a sheet of paper with a bunch of names written and crossed out before finally (I think) "Dylan" is circled.

Which actually brings me to the Q&A part. TLDR, between the use of "Sharp" for Deryn's name, Scott referring to Sharp as "she/he/they" during the panel, and the scene I mentioned earlier, I feel really hopeful about how they're approaching Deryn's gender and identity in this adaptation.

I asked a question about this at the Q&A and voice recorded it, so I'll try to transcribe it here as best I can because the audio is not great lol. I stumbled through my question so I trimmed it down here but I'll transcribe the response as clearly as I can!

Me: I just finished re-reading [the series] for the first time since I was probably in high school, and one of the things that interests me about this adaptation is the approach to Sharp's character... I guess I'm just interested, like, was there a lot of thought put behind, or what kind of thought was put behind how to approach their character in the anime, I guess as a chance to re-approach the story however many years after it was originally written.

Scott Westerfeld: Yeah, there's a lot to that. The "girl dressing as a boy" as a trope was something completely different in 2007 when I started writing this than it is now. And so we really approached Deryn's identity as what was at stake rather than just... rather than just her being in disguise, it's about their recreating themselves and becoming a different person and transitioning and, and so... but it's always been interesting to me that the words that I wrote back in 2009, 10, 11, y'know, as an old guy who grew up in Texas in the 70s - who was David Bowie fan! - but otherwise didn't have a lot of access into issues of gender, I'm amazed at how many people have been [able to?] adopt Deryn/Dylan as one of their own. I just got an email a week ago from a trans boy whose chosen name is Dylan. So it is amazing to me how whatever imperfections or whatever problematics there are in the text, people still find their way into what they need from a character. And as a writer, I can say that I always respected that character, I always respected their choices, I always respected who they were. I never tried to stick them into a dress and have everyone go "Ooh now you're pretty 'because 'cause you're in dress!" We didn't do that, and I think that what may be important for people and I think that's why it's still what's gonna work here, but it's been fun to be able to update it and everybody on the team's been really great about understanding that.

TLDR I don't want to get anyone's hopes up too high, but I'm really appreciative of the care that's being taken with Sharp's story and identity in this adaptation. It seems like Scott and the others on the team are taking that into account, and I'm excited to see how it plays out.

Other random things I remember:

THERE WAS AN ALEK COSPLAYER. I took a photo with them but I won't post it without their consent. Just trust that they looked fantastic.

Scott said one of the first things he was told was that Alek can't actually kill Nikola Tesla because he's too well loved by people in Japan, which I think is the funniest possible reason for a change to be made in an adaptation.

Diana Garnet (they/any) mentioned how much they love Sharp (don't we all) and also how they used to work at a Barnes and Noble and remembers selling lots of Westerfeld books!

Scott said his approach in writing Leviathan was taking everything he'd always wanted to write about and basically throwing it together, because he was just coming off of the success of Uglies and figured he could get away with it.

If I remember anything else I'll add on to this post! Overall, it was a wonderful panel and I'm incredibly excited for this project.

[verdiris]

"I told you, once, that I didn't want to leave without saying goodbye, like I did the first night. So I'm keeping that promise now."

Had an incredible time drawing this art for @aj-barlowe for their book "A Series of Rooms"! It was genuinely a joy to read and you should definitely check it out! 💜

[blcssom]

ok ok ok i'm reasonably caught up on drafts (single digits baby 😎) which means it's time for me to fill it with n e w things :' ))))

like this for a short starter (possibly usfw) from one of the below muses i'm itching to write atm !!! i'll come to you for muse preference <3

anthony allen (46) - financial consultant | bisexual | luke kirby fc a very high powered man in the conference room but an absolute pathetic simp when it comes to relationships !!! never above getting on his knees and begging for the approval of whoever's giving him affection.... may be a lil touch starved

beau greer (32) - librarian/cam boy | bisexual | drew starkey fc comes across very serious and quiet due to the nature of his work but absolutely unhinged in his free time xoxox naturally self-destructive and constantly pushing boundaries (sexually, emotionally, physically, etc.) just to see if he can !! live fast die young yk the drill

brianne barlowe (30) - personal stylist | bisexual | sarah catherine hook fc absolutely too rich to be kind to anyone not worshipping her !!! blonde rich bitch w/ a god complex and a tendency to act out when she's bored (which is pretty often) - approach at your own risk

carmen navarro (24) - exotic dancer | bisexual | nicole wallace fc former white trash turned would-be prima ballerina !!! unfortunately couldn't keep up w/ the $$$ for her lessons so she made a quick pivot to stripping as one does <333 never lost that ego tho very much thinks she's more talented than any other girl in the room, takes her dancing VERY seriously but also throws fits when things don't go her way whoops

declan bain (52) - ghost writer | bisexual | ewan mcgregor fc former child prodigy turned recluse !! absolutely hates socializing or being perceived in general so he switched from writing his own books to writing other people's xox very observant tho somehow manages to capture the human experience v well despite never participating !! also touch starved (shocker)

kiara obi (28) - caterer | bisexual | ayo edebiri fc big time frantic hummingbird energy this girl CANNOT sit still for the life of her. always moving/talking/walking f a s t and doesn't really make time for anyone to keep up w/ her.... unsurprisingly very socially awkward and blunt and doesn't understand why that's a problem :' )))

lenore acosta (35) - seamstress | bisexual | nathalie emmanuel fc very holistic very peace love and joy..... also v clingy and maybe not the best w/ boundaries (i.e. she doesn't respect them) but like !!! so cute so sunshine until she keys your car bc you didn't text her back for forty-five minutes even though she knows you read it <333

luca rosen (48) - priest/con-man | heterosexual | jon bernthal fc think harold hill a la the music man genuinely just moves from town to town looking for a way to scam as many people as possible and get the fuck outta dodge before they can catch on <333 currently working as a priest and he likes corrupting his flock almost as much as he likes pocketing the collection plate at the end of his 'sermon'

marcella locardi (40) - entertainment lawyer | bisexual | cristin milioti fc VERY good at what she does god can this woman argue.... absolutely not above pulling underhanded stunts in court for her clients and subsequently has never lost a case !! and if she sleeps with a client here or there or everywhere what of it??? genuinely believes the rules do not apply to her (might even think she's immortal??? depends if she's taken her meds)

remi tahara (27) - twitch streamer | bisexual | nico hiraga fc just a DOPE a loser a sweet puppy..... does what he's told without questioning it bc people are usually right and he's usually wrong!!! went viral for doing jackass level stunts his chat suggested which is not his f a v o r i t e thing but he loves how excited the audience gets when he's streaming from the ER so.......... he's gonna keep doin it

taran lowe (22) - vagabond/photographer | bisexual | louis partridge fc very laurie (little women) coded he's just coasting on his late grandad's money and traveling the world collecting lovers like infinity stones (and somehow dodging stds ??? lord knows how) very much comes and goes as he pleases and doesn't get why that's an issue !!!! will probably never love anyone as much as he loves himself his freedom but he sure is convincing w/ those flowery promises he likes to handout

[when-life-gives-you-lemons-if]

CC imagine deep in the relationship the ro walking into the bathroom and seeing on the sink a positive pregnancy test??? (flings too please? so greedy sorry!)

Mattos would be over the moon. Their mother has been pressuring them to have children, and they would do a great job being an at-home parent. I can see them baking with their little ones and teaching them how to bake muffins.

Green would love it too and probably hug MC and starts crying. They want to have children while their father is still alive so a news like that would overcome them with joy.

Fiffer... things were rough for Fiffer when raising Amari, so having another child would probably freak them out, but as long as both MC and Fiffer's financial situation is alright, I think they would welcome the idea. They would still be a bit grumpy about dealing with diapers again, but hey, love conquers all.

Monroe would actually be very happy about this news. They would spend the whole pregnancy treating MC like a trinket, and do everything for MC. MC would get pampered 24/7.

Barlow would cry at the idea of becoming a parent, and they would be anxious about not being good enough so, a lot of angst with Barlow and MC would need to put in some work to convince them that they would be a great parent.

This asks here answers for the hookup options

Jin made his solo US TV debut on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon with an unforgettable performance of “Running Wild,” the main track off of his first solo album Happy released on November 15. 

Clad in a stylish green fringe jacket and black pants, the multifaceted global superstar lit up the stage with electrifying energy, showcasing his vocal prowess alongside a full band featuring bass, drums, guitar, and keys. A road emblazoned with the track’s title— "Running Wild"—at the centre of the stage stretched endlessly toward a vibrant canyon landscape behind Jin, symbolising his journey toward happiness. The colourful display of road signs further brought the stage to life, perfecting a visually stunning narrative.

During his interview with Fallon prior to the performance, Jin reflected on the inspirations behind Happy, sharing his hopes to bring listeners joy, strength, and comfort in their everyday lives through the album. He also brought laughter to the studio by teaching Fallon the signature dance move from his viral sensation “SUPER TUNA,” as well as providing explanation for his self-titled nickname, “Worldwide Handsome,” which he continues to embrace for its irresistible humour and ability to spark smiles.

Jin’s first solo album Happy is a genuine, heartwarming gesture that invites listeners to join him on a journey to find happiness. It is a testament to his versatility and artistic growth as a solo artist, boasting a diverse range of genres and notable collaborations, including Gary Barlow of Take That, MAX, Taka and Toru of Japanese rock band ONE OK ROCK, and WENDY of Red Velvet. 

The official music video for “Running Wild” has already garnered 8.2M views as of November 20, 2024, reinforcing Jin’s status as a megastar at the centre of worldwide attention. Happy is available on all streaming platforms worldwide.

@exquisitexagony | for arthur. feat. eric barlow.

“Are you crazy? The red ones are clearly superior.” Leo’s elbows are propped on the counter as she sorts a bag of skittles into groups. Red with red, green with green, etc. “That’s why there’s less of them in a bag. Too much of a good thing spoils it.” They’d had this debate going for a while; which candy was the best. She had her opinions and it was difficult to sway her from them. If you asked her, she would tell you the blue m&ms tasted the best. And that somehow Twizzlers were better when you snapped them in half. It didn’t make sense – there was no science behind it. But God help anyone that tried to tell her otherwise. Of course, Arthur let her have her opinions, as strange as they were.

“When I was little, my dad wo-“ The rumbling engine of a car outside makes her stop her train of thought entirely. She bristles, pushing herself up to stand and listen. She knew that sound; it haunted her. Tormented her for years and-

The world spins to a halt on its axis. Suddenly, it feels as if the air has gone stale; like the joy has been sucked from the world. A muted-green BMW m3 pulls into the parking lot outside. Her hearing suddenly becomes attuned to every sound – the leaking faucet behind them, the squeaking turn of the hot dog warmer beside them.

A moment comes and goes where the store turns into a blinding blur. She bolts for the back of it, hands scratching and yanking on the bathroom handle as she throws herself inside and slams the door shut. The lights flicker on and she half punches the lock and wobbles backwards.

When he exits the car he stretches, eyes squinting against the harsh sun. This place was a shithole town with ugly ass rednecks. He couldn’t imagine her hiding here of all places. Not when she worshipped the idea of community and belonging.

A tip-off from her mother had led him here. At least Diane didn’t know the truth – that was a start. And even if Leo had opened her mouth it was easy enough for him to explain away. She was an anxiety ridden nuisance. Who could blame him?

The door to the gas station dings open and he doesn’t so much as look at the clerk. He stalks the inside as if he’s looking for something. In the back he helps himself to a six pack, popping the tab on one of the cans before he even gets to the register. His eyes flicker back to the closed bathroom door with the lights on, noting the shadow of feet in the cracks.

Leo’s eyes are closed and she tries her best not to breathe with her hand glued over her mouth. This was impossible; how did he find her? She had been so careful, so cunning. Everything was paid for in cash – everything was handled under the table. There was no official contract with her landlord. Nothing. He shouldn’t have been able to trace her.

At the counter, Eric slams the case of beer down and leans. His tongue passes along his upper teeth as he stares at the curly-haired kid in front of him. Briefly, his eyes flicker to the painting on the wall. Bingo.

“You know a girl named Leonora?” His eyes are dark – threatening. “Short, brunette. Likes to talk.” He’s gauging the situation to see just how much she talked. Eric takes a long gulp of his beer until the contents are empty. “You Arthur?” He motions with one finger to the drawing on the wall as the can crushes in his grasp.

She had it all, Two Stanley Cups, a Conn Smythe Trophy, a team that supported her as only the 2nd female goalie in NHL history. Everything was perfect.... Until it wasn't.

Now she is moving back to her hometown, and has to face the fact that not even a superstar goalie is safe from a trade. Filled with anger and hurt that her old team would just pass her aside for the next hotshot to hit the ice, Avalon isn't quick to make new friends on her new team. That is till Erik Johnson or EJ as he goes by, decides to take the new star goalie under his wing, and show her how life can be just as good in Colorado as it was in LA. Avalon and EJ never planned on anything more then friendship over the next few years, but when the thoughts of retirement cross minds, risky plays put players on the line and the Stanley cup right within their reach, they need to hold on to each other more then ever to make it to the end goal.
