#Martin X Amanda

[kittyspring-creates]

Guess who started a new story even though they're working on so many others, this guy

[henrythepug]

so martin freeman is actually married to amanda abbington (who played mary). and they were married since before sherlock. and so you’re telling me martin had more chemistry with benedict cumberbatch than his actual wife… iconic.

This is the extended trailer for my M rated side story set during the Defenders Chronicles Highlander series "Beginning of a New Life."

I originally had Gregor Powers (from "Studies in Light") to work with Felicia Martins as well as Ming, but through suggestions, I ended up changing my mind to have David Keogh (from "Obsession") to work alongside Felicia instead.

"I know you two. And if I'm gone, I know what you could become."

You think Mary was talking about John and Sherlock's careers or about their friendship in this scene? These were barely, if at all, effected by Mary's presence. The only thing majorly changed by Mary's death was John's relationship status - and frankly, from the very first scenes Mary was in, she wasn't exactly treating Sherlock as her husband's "bestie". She was suggesting for John and Sherlock to build a life together in a way they couldn't do when Mary was still in the picture, and you won't convince me otherwise.

I absolutely love how the people in Milo and Amanda's lives just adore and support their relationship.

There's Melissa who absolutely supported them from day one...

Then Zack coming in with the teasing...

Then their respective familiew are so very happy for them...

And of course MURPHY'S LAW ITS SELF set these two up to be together and be even closer.

Given that Cake' Splosion was live, I'm sure the whole school (if not the whole town) knows that Milo and Amanda are a couple.

Unfortunately for Joni, she must have NOT seen it...

Dynamite Comics Launches Kickstarter for GARGOYLES Classic Comics As Part Of The Show's 30th Anniversary.

Dynamite Comics and Disney Comics are celebrating the 30th anniversary of Gargoyles with the first-ever Kickstarter campaign featuring brand new graphic novels collecting long out-of-print Gargoyles comic books.

Dynamite Entertainment brought back Gargoyles as a comic series in 2022 to great acclaim. Now the publisher is crowdfunding a reprint of the classic comics based on the beloved animated series. To celebrate the 30th anniversary, Dynamite is excited to offer three beautiful tomes collecting all of these previous tales for fans. The set is initially being offered on Kickstarter to reach and communicate with diverse fans of all ages directly.

“I’m honestly thrilled that these three volumes will finally give Gargoyles fans easy access to these great stories, including the canon SLG tales!” said Weisman. “I think the Dynamite Kickstarter is a great way for Gargoyles fans to get the word out and to reserve their copies. This could be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so I hope our fans don’t miss out!”

The first volume is the hotly anticipated compilation of the first-ever Gargoyles comic series from 1995. This 11-issue title was originally released by Marvel Comics and is set loosely between the first two seasons of the original TV show. The memorable first issue featured a jaw-dropping cover by artist Joe Madureira, one of the biggest superstars of the era from his work on Uncanny X-Men. The series was written by Martin Pasko (Superman) and Mort Todd.

The second and third volumes of the Gargoyles Classic Years will be an incredible treat. From 2006 to 2009, a new Gargoyles comic series was launched from SLG Publishing in association with CreatureComics — the first written by Weisman. The main series, often referred to as “Clan Building,” was joined by a companion title, Bad Guys. Issues #9-12 of Gargoyles and #5-6 of Bad Guys did not see release and were only printed in paperback collections with small print runs. They were produced at a smaller digest size and have been incredibly expensive for years on the secondary market. 

The three-volume set is available in multiple variations for different kinds of fans and collectors. Each is available as either hardcover or paperback. Deluxe hardcover editions with signed tip-in pages are being offered. For the Gargoyles diehards, the most premium option will be the Gargoyles 30th Anniversary Premier Editions limited to just 1,000 copies each!

In addition to the books at the center of this celebration, the campaign will offer several add-ons for backers, including lithograph prints of Jae Lee and Amanda Conner’s covers for Dynamite’s Gargoyles #1. The most premium art piece anyone can get will be a deluxe signed and remarqued giclée print of Lee’s Gargoyles art.

In addition to the reprint of the full series, fans can get special facsimile editions of the very first issue with gold or purple foil stamping. Sketch cover options are also available, as well as commissioned original art from Lee. Plus, collector packs of variant cover sets or premium limited editions and metal covers for Dynamite’s series can be added.

November 1988. WHO'S WHO UPDATE '88 #4 included this entry for Amanda Waller, summarizing her early history. This was probably written by Robert Greenberger and/or Peter Sanderson, but it's based primarily on "The Secret Origin of the Suicide Squad" in SECRET ORIGINS #14 (May 1987). The text reads:

PERSONAL DATA Full Name: Amanda Blake Waller Occupation: Director, Task Force X Marital Status: Widowed Known Relatives: Joseph (husband, deceased), Joseph, Jr, (son, deceased), Damita (daughter, deceased), Martin (son), Jessie (sister), Coretta (daughter), Sareetha (daughter), Bubba (son-in-law) Group Affiliation: Suicide Squad, Checkmate Base of Operations: Belle Reve Prison, Louisiana First Appearance: LEGENDS #2 Height: 5'9" Weight: 213 lbs. Eyes: Brown Hair: Brown

HISTORY Amanda Blake was a young, struggling teen living In Chicago's notorious Cabrini-Green district. She met, fell in love with and married Joseph Waller when she was eighteen. Over the next few years, the Wallers built up a stable family of six children all struggling to stay out of trouble. Joe, Jr. had a promising career ahead of him in basketball, but street toughs shot him when Joe refused to give up a dollar. Six months later, Damita was raped and murdered. This trouble drove Joseph over the edge and he grabbed a gun, went out into the street and tried to extract a measure of revenge. Joe stalked a man he suspected of the rape and the two exchanged gunfire in a local bar. Both men died, and Amanda was left alone to carry on. Amanda turned to a local Community Health Clinic and there she met Simon LaGrieve, then a young psychiatrist. LaGrieve helped Amanda work through the pain and the guilt and gave her the strength to carry on. Over the years, she saw to it that her other children finished college and then she went on to get her own degree. Looking for some meaningful work, Waller went to work for Marvin Collins, who was looking to be elected to Congress. Collins and Waller proved to be a formidable team and they won the election and once in Washington began hammering on the administration’s domestic policies and programs. While searching for some documents, Waller unearthed files detailing the 40-year existence of Task Force X—its original divisions of “Suicide Squad" and "Argent" and how the Squad was used when needed. Given the then-current sentiment against heroes created by G. Gordon Godfrey (see Glorious Godfrey). Waller pushed through a reactivation of the Suicide Squad. With Federal support, the team was greenlighted and funds were provided to open up a major base. Belle Reve Prison in Louisiana (see Suicide Squad revised, Belle Reve). Waller headed up all of Task Force X but her heart remained with the Squad. When staffing Belle Reve, she hired her old counselor, LaGrieve, and relies on him for spot checks of her performance. To most, she is The Wall, a hardnosed, uncompromising woman who sets very rigid and tough standards for all who work for her. When a division placed under Task Force X failed, Waller saw to it that it was salvaged and turned Into what has been named Checkmate (see Checkmate). Today, Task Force X is run by Waller and both sides have performed admirably. Currently, Walter is being besieged by threats to her authority by Squad Mission Leader Rick Flag and blackmail through Task Force X's former National Security Council liaison Derek Tolliver. Waller has resolved that she will not go down but will fight and claw her way back into control. No one doubts that she has the willpower to accomplish her goal. While Amanda Waller has no superpowers, she wields considerable Influence and authority throughout the American intelligence community. She also has strong budgetary ties to Congress and has managed to secure major funding for both divisions of Task Force X. Given her years on Capitol Hill, Waller is one of the slickest operators in American government. Waller has trained herself in the use of various firearms but chooses to use her sharp tongue and imperious personality to get most jobs done. On occasion, she has demonstrated a powerful right cross.

I spent entirely too much time on this, but I really got going. I also probably missed a few people (and didn't even start on the crew because of so much overlap). I'm not sure if this is just Vancouver film industry at work or what, but I am done.

Writing Patterns (tag game)

Rules: list the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern!

I was tagged by @iwritesometimes Thank you this was so much fun!Ten fics is a good long way back, the oldest of these were posted in 2021.

It was little known, and hardly at all marked in the annals of Gondor, for all that it was etched with remarkable clarity in Aragorn’s memory, that for three short, yet terrifying, hours the hobbit Peregrin Took had held full sway of the seating chart for the King’s wedding (Lord of the rings, Gen)

2. Billy had been nursing his slug of whiskey in the saloon long enough that it had grown warm from his hands as he turned the glass round and round (The Magnificent Seven (2016), Billy/Goody)

3. ”But why do I have to come?” Johnny whines from the backseat like a five-year old, as if going to a Christmas party with free booze was some sort of unimaginable hardship just because it required a button down, but Amanda could ask herself the same question (unfinished Kobra Kai fic from Morgue files)

4. Barak’s quarters in the Rivan citadel were large and comfortable, they were close to Anheg’s as befitted the Earl of Trellheim and the king’s cousin (The Belgariad, NSFW, Silk/Barak)

5. “Do you have your hat, and your allergy pills? And hand sanitizer in those tiny little bottles?” (Glass Onion, NSFW, Benoit Blanc/Phillip Blanc)

6. “You are bringing Lan Wangji to Vulcan for Christmas?” Jiang Cheng said, pausing with his glass of juice halfway to his mouth. (The Untamed X Star Trek, Lan Zhan/Wei Ying NSFW)

7. After their midnight revelations Billy had optimistically imagined that as soon as Sam had closed the door behind him he and Goody fall on each other like those insufferable couples at airports, or possibly wolves at the zoo feeding time (The Magnificent Seven (2016) Billy/Goodnight).

8. Once the dust had settled and humanity had come to the conclusion that, by and large, it had survived there had been months of celebrations, galas and press tours (Pacific Rim, Herrman Gottleib/Newton Geiszler)

9. The first time it happens it's on the boat, in the confusion of the shark returning, the noise of the barrels thumbing against the hull and water rushing in and everyone running around (Jaws, Martin Brody/Matt Hooper).

10. Ward spends the fall holiday on New Penzance. (Moonrise Kingdom, Scoutmaster Ward/Sharp).

I dont really know if I can see a pattern, I would say that since I am pretty much a situational comedy writer I tend to start with the set up for the situation as soon as possible. In four the whole premise of the fic is in the first sentence so I guess I start with exposition and when I have the table set so to speak its easier to get off the ground.

This M/Mature rated story is set after Chapter 27 of Defenders Chronicles Highlander and this video is the trailer for that fanfiction.
