#Morse dislikes Gwen

I absolutely hate āScherzoā. I hate most of S8. Not as much as S7, but I do hate it. In any case, though, as with S7, there are wonderful moments. This is one of the highlights for me.
Since Iāve only been part of this cult community for a short time, Iām sure someone has discussed this before now, but towards the beginning of the episode, Morse is getting dressed. We havenāt seen him appear yet and weāre a few minutes in. ļæ¼
As the scene opens, we hear Wagnerās famous āTristan Chordā.
Part of the reason why itās famous is because of its construction. Itās unresolved. Unresolved chords create tension and uncertainty. Theyāre also quite dramatic.
This happens several times in the opera āTristan und Isoldeā, and at this moment, at the beginning of Act 3 (the thing is four hours long), our hero, Tristan, is injured and hoping for help.
As the camera pulls back from the image of the turntable, we see empty bottles - itās first thing in the morning we realize, because Morse is carrying coffee and putting on his tie. Thatās lot of bottles. Heās clearly not okay. Thereās a knock at the door.
Instead of help for our hero, itās Gwen. ļæ¼
I know itās not a Thursday Thursday, but I thought Iād leave you with a Tristan Thursday before I head off to a busy workday. ļæ¼
Volume up.

WISHLIST 28.03.22
FLUFF
teach morse to cook/bake
picnic date
give morse affection and donāt let him do the little turning his head away to smile about it thing that he always does. donāt let him hide his smile! itās a good smile and his partner deserves to see it
take morse on holiday! force him to relax! he does horribly if he has to have time off work and heās alone, but if heās with someone?? perhaps they can force him to cheer up
bring him home for dinner bc this man is horrible at cooking for himself and will simply choose not to. trick him into coming over for dinner if necessary
romance him! pursue him! morse does most of the seeking out and pursuing in canon so it would be adorable if someone turned up to take him on dates and stuff. plus heās,, Not Rich so if you take him out for dinner ( while reassuring him he isnāt paying for it and isnāt allowed to try, bc otherwise he wonāt accept ) he wonāt know how tf to act
morse accidentally napping at someone elseās house
give morse a massage?? he is quite possibly the most stressed man to ever exist idk how heās still standing and yet. he has never had a massage. he needs some help relaxing.
morse is an attractive man. pls tell him so. he doesnāt dislike his appearance but he wishes he was a bit more muscular and less scrawny. heās got some muscle but itās not that visible unless heās got his shirt off. but heās got pretty freckles and they should be appreciated and so should his body generally. he wonāt know wtf to do with himself if heās being complimented on it.Ā
scar tracing! idk itās cute and morse deserves to associate something cute with his old case scars instead of purely the memory of getting them
CASEĀ Ā /Ā Ā ADVENTUREĀ Ā /Ā Ā ACTION
attacked/held captive by the same criminal
undercover operations
post-case shit. morse is pretty much guaranteed to be a) exhausted or b) hurt and if itās extra bad he might need a lil hospital trip.Ā
mid-case stress. morse does a lot of the thinking part of cases alone in his room, but if heās got company, he might do it out loud. nice way for someone to realise how genuinely smart he is??
morse gets taken off a case for disobeying orders and chasing leads heās been told to drop, and then carries on anyway. who bettter to help him than someone else who isnāt supposed to be investigating?Ā
alternatively, morse gets taken off a case and actually stays off it, but something he did earlier in the investigation comes back to bite him and he gets attacked or poisoned or something by someone who thinks heās still on it, and since heās now alone and not near the office, he needs some help from the first person he can find. convenient way for him to meet someone with no other reason to know him.Ā
DEVELOPING SHIP ( pre- or early-days ship / some of this could also work for platonic! )
only one bed trope
casual sex except morse predictably catches feelings
trapped somewhere together = bonding time?
meeting on a case / in hospital after a case when morse inevitably needs medical attention / someone finding morse after a case when all the action is overĀ
morse canonically passes out at blood and heights sometimes... so someone could find him like that. great way to discover his phobias.
( tw emotional abuse ) finding out literally anything about morseās family situation? the general emotional abuse, the fact that morse still sends his stepmother money when he canāt afford it, the way heās so snappy with everyone else but when sheās insulting him he just sits there and takes it most of the time... idk i feel like knowing that about him explains a lot about his behaviour and the fact that he so genuinely believes heās a disappointment and a failure. bc those words have come straight from gwen ( plus other people heās known ). if itās up to morse he will never discuss it, but gwen does turn up unannounced and expect to stay with him when she needs a place to sleep, so thatās a thing that could happen. rip to morse if heās got someone staying over with him at the time.Ā
morse tends to live in some shitty flats so he might need somewhere to stay occasionally if his heating or water stops working... who better than the person heās crushing on??
alternatively, someone find out how heās living. how tiny his flat is, how miserable it is. invite him over.Ā
#wishlist.#if any of this interests anyone pls feel free to slide into my dms or tag me in a starter or reply to this post if you want me to make one#or do literally anything else. tell me what you're interested in. send a meme. hit me in the face#if you take any of these ideas and write them into a starter you will have my entire heart#zero permission needed

Hey Specs, did you ever hang with the avengers? And, on an unrelated note, if you had would you have ever gotten your hands on any avengers authorization codes?
(Purely hypothetical, I'm not fighting a losing battle with code or anything here)
Did I ever--
Gwen, this is...this is me we're talking about. Someone with a borderline allergic reaction to the superheroes-as-celebrity phenomenon. I saw the Avengers on Oprah when I was twelve and felt myself seize up. The encounters I've had with them as a group have been purely professional, with teeth clenched. Individually, though:
I met Captain America on a rooftop when I was fifteen. Now, admittedly, I was an immature jackass at that point (as compared to the mature jackass I am now). So when he started expressing concern over an obvious child fighting people, my awe at being in the presence of a living legend quickly morphed into a more fuck-you-old-man mentality. Our argument there was the first of a few. Cap had a...an unshakable self-righteousness to him that I've never quite learned to like. But looking back on our encounters now, I can see that he was just trying to do the right thing. And I'm a bit ashamed that he died thinking I disliked him.
Iron Man, on the other hand, I'm quite pleased to be on bad terms with. Every single time I've met Stark, in or out of his tin can, he was trying to either fight me, buy my services, or use me as a lackey. The man's an egotist and a megalomaniac who's barely better than Norman Osborn, and the only reason the entire world doesn't see him as such is because he paid lip service to the idea of combating terrorism or stopping the expansion of HYDRA or whatever Cap was twisting his arm into caring about that week. I am so glad he's lost control of his company by now.
Thor is....they're hot. I don't know what else there is to say. They're outrageously, impossibly, mind-numbingly attractive, with that luscious red hair and those rippling arms and that firm bit of tummy fat and--I'm getting off track. I don't think I've ever had a full conversation with Thor outside of, like, a battle, but they've never given me a reason to dislike 'em. And the way they're summoning rainclouds to alleviate the California wildfires and put an end to droughts the world over is...it's good. It's really, really good.
Does Wasp count as an Avenger? I dunno. She was in the beginning, so I don't care if she says she's retired. I respect her as a scientist, I guess, but I don't particularly like her attitude as to what superheroes are supposed to be.
Mockingbird? I've never paid attention to Dr. Morse in my life.
Hawkeye? Clint was fine when he was alive, but I'm like 90% certain that he trained Bullseye in the ways of ridiculous supernatural accuracy so I'm blaming him for that. I like Kate, based on the, like, three times I've met her. Come to think of it, she was actually in Prison 42 when we were busting everybody out. I wonder which portal she escaped through.
Hulk? Listen. Banner needs to stop trying to suppress the poor kid and start trying to let him out in safe, comfortable environments. There's a reason why that alter is only ever seen in the midst of a violent, screaming meltdown. I feel sorry for the Hulk, and I'm frustrated with Banner for his part in that.
...And, of course, there was that time during the War of the Worlds when every superhero was drafted into in the Avengers to help fight the Chitauri. I'm never going to stop hating Nick Fury for that. But I...might have some old access codes from when I was a part of that?
I'm not sure. My laptop is in the back of Emjay's car, currently in...Minnesota, I think. I'll send you whatever I've still got once I'm back with her.

Right so in the light of a person from Morseās past apparently turning up in Morseās life in tonightās episode Iām speculating as to just who itās going to be and I have whittled it down to two options, one not very likely but could still happen and one more likely (for the record in case I do accidentally get this correct: I didnāt look up anything about whoās in this weekās episode aired because I like to speculate on these things but not actually know them until the episode airs):
Option 1) Gwen Morse.
Option 2) Susan.
Letās start with the one I think is slightly less likely, Susan, Morseās ex fiancĆ©. well i donāt think this is likely to happen since I donāt think Morse meets her again until her husband is found dead and heās investigating it in the 1990s but it could still happen, the Morse continuity has been changed a bit before in Endeavour (like the age he was when his mum died for example) but still, I also struggle to think of a reason why sheād be there at Morseās door.
So I reckon itās going to be Gwen.
Purely because the Radio Times description said itās someone from his past heād rather forget. So if itās family, itās not going to be Joyce, Morse canonically likes his little sister, and who do we know made his younger years hell and he doesnāt get on with? Itās his step mother, Gwen. I mean, she almost drove him to s****** through petty bullying, so him not getting on with Gwen is an understatement. Also we havenāt heard about Morseās family for a while, so why not have the member Morse dislikes the most pop up (maybe with some family news like...Joyce is getting married to Keith Garrett? Itās around the right time for Joyce to be getting married or into that relationship considering Marilyn Garrett is 15 in 1992 when she dies so sheād have to be born in the late 70s for that to work out) right when he is going through some emotional turmoil (still over Violetta and Venice, and also added with the fact that Joan is going out with Strange, one of his best mates) and when he least expects it. It just sounds like something the writers would do to torture poor Morse even further.

Ā Ā Ā Ā it isnāt motherās day where i live however i know it is where a lot of you live, so! morse & his mother headcanon post. ( some of this is canon not hc but i gotta give you the context! )Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā morseās mother died when he was 12. her name was constance. she was a quaker and thatās partly why morseās first name is what it is; itās a virtue name like hers. sheās also the reason he hasnāt changed it. he doesnāt like his name much, but itās also one of the only connections he has left to his mother, which makes it very special and makes him extremely reluctant to change it. so, he settles for simply not using it.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā morse was raised in quakerism as much as his father would allow. he went with his mother to the meeting house although he didnāt particularly like going or believe, because he didnāt want to disappoint her. he stopped going when he lost her.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā he doesnāt remember a whole lot of her, but he remembers the scent of her hair, andĀ ātendernessā. it was a very soft, loving relationship, full of affection and trust. morse likes physical touch very much and he wouldāve been getting a lot of that from constance, running to her for cuddles when he was upset or hurt, getting tucked into bed at night, that kind of thing. he was very attached to her and he stayed with her after she and his father got divorced.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā when she got sick, morse did most of the caring for her. he knows how to look after people, as a result. he also retained the constant urge to help people. he couldnāt save her, he just had to watch her slowly get sicker and sicker, and that left him with the belief that he has something to make up for. iāve discussed this before, but morse has her death certificate still, along with a picture of him with her. the death certificate states that she was found in bed. morse and constance lived alone, which means itās highly likely that little morse was the one to find his motherās body. no prizes for guessing where the phobia of dead bodies comes from.Ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā losing her broke his heart. morse went from this very loving, very affectionate and close relationship to living with a father who was indifferent towards him at best and a stepmother who actively disliked and bullied him. no more affection, no more hugs, no more getting tucked into bed at night, no more feeling like someone cared if he was upset. he wouldnāt have gotten any of the same affection from them. the closest thing morse had to affection wouldāve been when he held his baby stepsister. he loved her a lot, but probably wasnāt allowed to hold her very often, courtesy of gwen. morse didnāt consider gwen to be anything like his mother, and certainly wouldnāt have come anywhere close to filling the gap left by constance. she was his stepmother legally, but nothing more.
Ā Ā Ā Ā morseās mother formed the part of his childhood where morse felt loved. when he lost her, he lost the feeling of being loved and appreciated simply for existing. from that moment on, his existence wasnāt enough, and he felt he had to earn love.Ā
