“Bah. Who cares? A lot of fuss about nothing if you ask me.”
By now, the news of Michelle’s impressive time with the Seagull’s Catch had spread.
“First Edward with his little passenger excursion yesterday, then some nobody from the North East and their fish train. This railway really has a penchant for overselling mediocracy, doesn’t it? Come and find me when this no-hoper is pulling a real express - provided that they actually can.”
Edward pretended he hadn’t heard. 8754 didn’t.
“Not everything is about you, Gordon.” He huffed. “Just because you don't run overnight trains doesn't mean they aren't important.”
“I never claimed they don’t have their uses,” Gordon countered, loftily, “just that they aren’t worthy of such attention - not like my expresses.”
The big blue goods engine rolled his eyes.
“Having said that, you all just look out for me this afternoon, when I rush through with the express.” Gordon declared, as he prepared to leave. “That will be a fine sight for you.”
The engines were so entrenched in their bickering, that no one noticed a small blue engine - formerly of express status in his own right - excuse himself to shunt trucks in the yard.

People when they listen to 𝗘𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗸's panting and 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗲 tell him that he sounds out of breath and she asks him if she catches him at a bad time: “think normal”. Me: “🔥 😏”. What things I think 🤭
But leaving that aside, I feel tenderness to watch the smile that it's formed on 𝗘𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗲 when he greets 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗲 and listens she wants to meet him 🥺💖
Happy birthday to 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗺𝘀 🥳🎈🎂! I can't wait to see if she will also appear in 𝑽𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒎 3 as 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 🙌🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀
La gente cuando oye los jadeos de 𝗘𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗸 y 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗲 le dice que parece que le falta el aire y le pregunta que si le pilla en mal momento: “piensa normal”. Yo: “🔥 😏”. Qué cosas pienso 🤭
Pero dejando eso aparte, qué ternura siento al ver la sonrisa que se le forma a 𝗘𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗲 cuando saluda a 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗲 y cuando escucha que ella quiere quedar con él 🥺💖
¡Feliz cumpleaños a 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗺𝘀 🥳🎈🎂! Qué ganas de ver si aparecerá en 𝑽𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒎 3 también como 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 🙌🏻
