Its Tanner Tuesday!
Tumblr media
Here, have some headcanons specifically about Bill Tanner!
1. Tanner is a big fan of the classics, and he loves watching them on his couch or on his laptop (thanks to a secured server Q setup for him and also uses from time to time) whenever he has any downtime. There isn’t a lot, which is why he tends to go for his favorites and not new movies or shows.
2. Tanner is the go-to person for anyone in MI6 to take care of their animals whenever they are off on long missions or can’t make it home. It’s become such a thing that there’s now a waitlist for his services and Q is regularly solicited to put names at the top of the list.
3. Tanner knows everything. Even if you think he doesn’t know, he does. He decides (along with Moneypenny) what is M’s purview and what is just something to be taken care of with a good bit of blackmail.
4. Q, Tanner, and Moneypenny all like to sync together at least once a week (on the pretext of knowing what's happening in all the departments but really to just bitch about their colleagues). Tanner keeps a running list of material just in case he needs to blackmail Eve or Q into doing him favors later.
5. Tanner used to be a field agent, one step down from double-oh, and no one- barring the old M-knows this until he has to showcase his skills during an attempted MI6 break in one day. No one believes Q when Q tries to tell them all that Tanner really is a badass.
6. In a Q!Holmes verse Tanner is Mycroft’s partner, but he refuses to give Mycroft any dirt on his sibling and Q only discovers Tanner and Mycroft are together by accident and gets very upset until he finds out that Tanner never tells Mycroft anything and it genuinely annoys Mycroft to no end. Then, Q helps Tanner get around Mycroft’s surveillance, just because he can.
7. Tanner’s favorite food is hand pies, because he can eat them whenever and he can make them ahead of time and not have to worry about food during the week. He often brings Q and Moneypenny some since they all work about the same amount and he knows they aren’t eating well enough.

007 Fest Intro
Last year I was a 00, and this year I’ve defected😎
Tumblr media
Villainous Nickname:
I believe they call me, The Gremlin
Modus Operandi:
Many pranks of lethal nature! I will also have my henchpeople move your furnitures three centimeters to the right.
About My Lair:
A very nice mansion beside the sea, with lots of escape routes and niches I can squeeze myself into to hide from agents. I don’t have shark tanks or jellyfish, but who knows what tricks the corridors hide?
There are also some bean bags lying around, very convenient when I need to slow people down.
My Secret Weapon:
I can only say, those big strong agents never saw me coming.
Villainous Catchphrase:
Come play with me, if you dare.
What I’m most looking forward to about 007 Fest 2023:
Lots of writing and maybe making new friends!

I know we joke Lawrence Stroll is basically a bond villain, but my god, I have to take off my hat to him. Man joined this sport purely to support his son's career and dreams, and has seemingly just managed (not officially confirmed as yet) to nab the key to achieving those dreams in certified freaking car genius Adrian Newey, the man behind car designs that won 6 constructors' championships, 7 drivers championships, and earned 120 podiums to date for red bull alone. He's won 12 constructors' championships in total with 3 different Formula One teams (red bull, williams & mclaren). And now, he's apparently chasing Max too. I have to admire this man's sheer commitment, I now need him to win (sign newey & Max when the time comes) so badly now to see him rub the entire paddocks nose in it lmao.

one day we need to talk about how helaena and alicent are glorified into these perfect little victims that can do no wrong and screaming sexist, misogynist, etc when you point it out, while calling rhaenyra a whore and minimizing what she went through simply because she doesn’t want to suffer as a woman in westeros. might it have to do with how rhaenyra’s suffering isn’t as male gaze and fetishizable as the forever victims?

I still have a bigger post in the works but in case I don't get to this point anytime soon
I just wanted to say that ever since I first read Imposter Syndrome and the Overpowered arc of IDW Sonic I've felt in my bones that Surge and Kit's projected end point is not to "accept Sonic" and "become real heroes"
To me their story has always been about how the current system of good/heroes vs evil/villains has hurt them, how they don't fit into it and yet are being pulled in both directions by villains and heroes who want them to choose a side (theirs in specific), and how they'll find their place, home, and future living freely alongside each other
I cannot envision Surge happy working for hero attention and praise long term, a position that comes with strings and will inevitably restrict her
Surge has always wanted to do her own thing, Kit has known since Overpowered that being with her is the purpose he chooses.
And I don't believe we've really hit Surge's defining moment yet (where she finally finds her own purpose and is no longer jumping between potential ones). I think right now in idw Sonic we're still in a transitional period of learning and growing and experiencing, and that moment of realization is yet to come.
But perhaps that's just me.

Holy shit! Maka & CRONA'S VAs??!!!
Tumblr media
#my ramblings#I mean I know it's kinda expected that Maka & Soul's VAs return to voice a promo for this 20th anniversary exhibition thing-#-but I never really expected Crona's VA to come back and take part on this promo thing. it's such a treat! I was maybe expecting Kid's VA-#-cuz afaik Mamoru(Kid's VA) is still active in the voice acting career plus Kid is part of the main cast#don't get me wrong. I TOTALLY LOVE hearing Crona's voice again and it was such a pleasant surprise. it's just... idk well unexpected for a-#-minor character (later 'villain') to be the 1st one to make a come back voice alongside with the protagonist instead of one of the main-#-party Maka teamed up with like Kid or Black Star#what does this mean#well.. maybeee?? Kid along with the Thompson sisters and Black Star along with Tsubaki will have their own part in promoting this later on#assuming their VAs would also make a come back#so lack for a better reason they partnered up Maka & Crona for this promo taking account of what happened in the manga and how meaningful-#-their bond is to the story. sooo... safe to assume CROMAKA CANON!!!#lmao my brain is so fried im sorry#this doesn't makes sense. I'm literally just rambling#tho I wish I knew what they were saying...I heard Crona's VA saying 'big chance of (something) is going to be held'#and Maka saying 'Ohkubo-sensei (something something) special video' lol that's as far as my limited JP can understand#I wish there was a transcript or a translation of they said (⁠っ⁠˘̩⁠╭⁠╮⁠˘̩⁠)⁠っ

The Happiest Days of Their Lives (realistic attempt 2)
Oh, what is this. Realistic art, by me? 😱 Now that's something that doesn't happen every day... even less when it features Brosnan!Bond (honestly, I probably haven't drawn him "realistically" since 2014). But beyond that, yep, this is a collab with @3nigm4art yet again—as good as my line art can get, nothing can beat their amazing colours ♥️
The heart originally was me fooling around (Alec first had a much more displeased expression...), but I see 3NIGM4 took the joke one step further with the amount of skin showing, lol. Not that I'm complaining, though.
Think that this is my art magnum opus for this Fest? Ohhh, just you wait. There will be a sequel to this... in due time. ��
(No, I didn't resist paraphrasing Pink Floyd in the title. One does not simply change a winning team.)

007 Fest 2023 - Felix Friday
Tumblr media
Have some headcanons about Felix!
He has a daughter, they are publicly estranged but only because they both work in espionage and they don't want to risk each other. They regularly pass messages and communicate however, just via clandestine means instead.
Felix loves coming to the UK and seeing James (and Alec). He knows he can count on them to understand his life and to have some crazy stories that make him feel good about his own crazy missions.
When he doesn't have missions, Felix lives on his boat that he takes all around the world, it's helpful for both his cover and he also just loves sailing. James sometimes joins him to get away, and it's usually crashed by Alec at some point during their trip.
James tried really hard to stop Q and Felix from meeting because they knew Felix would try and recruit Q. When both finally did meet they laughed, turns out Felix had rescued Q from a bit of trouble in America when Q was a teenager (before he was MI6) and they both had been friends and remained friends since. James is baffled by this and feel slightly betrayed no one told them anything.

I started playing pokemon diamond! i've been meaning to play it for ages so im super excited to jump in and finally play a 2D pokemon game, though i dont know if i trust either of my rivals yet.... I've only ever played pokemon games where you get exp share pretty much at the start so remembering to individually level up my whole teams gonna be a bit of a learning curve but im always up for new challenges
Naming my starters has always been important to me, it took me a while to come up with her's but i ended up picking Mori, after the japanese word for forest and a city in hokkaido, the island that's the partial inspiration for sinnoh :)
#i looked it up and apparently you can get exp share after registering 40 species of pokemon but that's still wild to me#like i don't just get it at the beginning??? how am i supposed to evolve all my Guys?????#i don't know why i'm so weary about my rivals especially lucas but there's something about them that's screaming villain arc to me#i don't want any spoilers nobody spoil anything#also why do they show the gym leaders on your profile even before you fight them??? the surprise of what they look like has always been#rly fun to me. i only glanced at it bc i didn't want to be spoiled but even then i feel like ive Seen Too Much#i caught an abra too it's just not on my team and oh my god that took like a half hour#why do they only know teleportttttt i wasted so many pokeballs#circling back to the rivals i think what's throwing me off abt barry is that he chose the starter with the type advantage#idk if that was normal in the older games but in all the ones i've played your rival picks the weaker one. it's just sus idk#anywho it's 1 in the morning i'm gonna go to sleep but woowee i'll having fun#OH RIGHT I LOVE THE WAY YOU GET YOUR STARTER IN THIS GAME#like 'whoopsies i found you in a random guys briefcase! we're bonded for life now.'#i've already characterized Mori to she 100% is a spoiled little princess who#learned how to do big sopping wet sad puppy eyes to get what she wants#and id fall for it every time she'll still be my itty bitty baby even after she evolves#sassy speaks#pkmn#pkmn diamond

wrote a long post about subtle changes i would have put into s3 of ted lasso to set it up as a four-part show, accidentally wrote another post now about potential s4 stuff (but do not have it in me to write out an episode by episode structure post)
but also really the main gist is that why I was initially confused at the 3-season structure (and then I felt right in having felt it should have been longer when I did watch the season, despite liking where it ultimately landed on those final scenes), was that everything barring ted himself felt like it needed a bit more time
if ted ended s3 by making his decision and telling rebecca (either on or off screen, but if it were cliff-hanger I'd say off) and then having all of s4 setting that up while he's in a much better place to help others with their various things after a s3 where he was so in his own head that he wasn't a very good coach for almost all of it -- and then also a story about when he's planning on telling the team
if one could have fully dealt with sam's narrative about being hounded for standing up for his ideals and grounded him more centrally and built up to him joining the nigerian national team, rather than jumping to it, and given proper space to his interpersonal relationships (such as with the woman managing his restaurant, sorry I forget her name rn)
if nate could have had a whole season after being with west ham where he's back with the team, in which he could have, yes, made it up to some people, but also dealt with how it felt to be with west ham and before that, how he was treated by his teammates, his girlfriend, and even his own father
if rebecca could have had that whole season after their manchester win to go "oh wait, I really don't care what my husband thinks of me" while getting to share scenes with both his ex-wife and his current (but also soon-to-be-ex) wife, showing the three of them in a supportive space recovering from being in a relationship with a manipulative, cheating, controlling man
if keeley could have a whole season building her company with her new, more financially savvy and more organised friend at her side, barbara, while not centering romantic relationships/having her realise that she really can be okay without one (whether or not she is with anyone by the end, but actually giving it a whole season's worth of time)
if there could be a whole fallout/supportive trend after colin publicly kissed his boyfriend on the football pitch, to really give us more actual delving into what it means to be out as a male football player, and perhaps isaac taking that on himself as both his best friend and team captain, and how that plays out in contrast to perhaps other teams, none of which would have out players
if roy and jamie kind of... I guess continued along the lines they were doing, but really got to get into the former's feelings about being "old" in football terms, but not really that old at all, and the latter's relationship with his father (and yeah, I'm a roy/jamie/keeley fan, so scenes that let the three of them be mutually supportive and effortlessly close with one another)
with trent crimm's own narrative continuing to be that of documenting and pulling together the structure
and all of that with a main storyline on building a women's football team and centering keeley's storyline around that as well (also soooo many gay characters then, for realism 😜 also I know two non-binary football players who play semipro personally, there's more than that, so that could be a storyline too...)
just a bit more time youknow
it would have first of all given a final season that broadens the world they're in more, after a third season that wasn't trying to wrap things up and so maybe gave us a bit more west ham/just football beyond the tiny sphere of richmond
and crucially that things weren't flattened to make them get to the ending faster (things like how some characters had done some really nasty stuff (rupert, jamie's dad), but at some point characters just went *ah well, but I'm over it enough to start moving on,* or how sam never quite got to carry an ongoing dramatic arc that wasn't solved with a handwave that didn't give enough weight to how serious his narrative was, or whatever jade's deal was and how she wasn't nice to nate (and neither was coach beard's gf) and the rushedness of keeley's company and need for romantic partnership to feel safe in herself, etc.)
I really liked the ethos of the show and I enjoyed watching it, but I do not believe that three seasons was the intended structure, and I think if I knew for sure that was the case, I'd be more shrug-and-move-on of some of its rushedness than I am now, where I'm trying to understand what prompted those choices if indeed they were deliberate. because there was a lot of unexplored territory for almost every character, I think especially the characters of colour (nate with how he was treated and sam with his politically deeper storylines) and the female characters (keeley with her business, potentially rebecca with her kinship with bex)
like how the sense8 movie could never in a million years have paid off all the plot that came before, but we're just glad for the catharsis
also lastly, it could have still setup a potential spinoff centering the woman's team entirely, if that was something one wanted to do

what’s the flashpoints equivalent of this lewis ferrari insanity 😭 😭
phenomenal ask, thank you so much anon
it's a bit like if Shepard announced she was leaving Red Bull Normandy to drive for Ferrari Hierarchy. but thankfully she doesn't
we also have Garrus ditching Hierarchy after one (1) season to drive for Omega but he's just some rookie making a bizarre career move and not like. a seven time world champ

*cracks knuckles* well if I'm gonna work on my OCs and now that someone's reminded me how actually tragic Echo is
Let's talk about Jasmine and her relationship with Echo
I feel like they would get really close if they ever met. I think Julien would tell Echo about her in a way he wouldn't tell Zane because he was scared Zane would tell others someday. Echo won't ever leave the lighthouse, so he can't tell anyone. He would know about Julien's other child, but he would figure it's Zane, the one he replaced. When they meet, once they figured out they were related, I think Echo would realize and want to tell Jasmine what he knows. Julien wanted to know her but couldn't. He left her because it's what was best for her. I think Echo would want to imagine Julien left him for those kinds of reasons too.
I think they would bond over being abandoned by Julien. Jasmine before she was born, Echo long after. I think they'd each envy each other, in a way. They both resent him (even if they won't admit it), but Jasmine resents him never being there. Echo resents him being there so much, only to leave him. Echo would fill in the gaps for Jasmine on who he was, while Echo is more eager to hear about the life Jasmine lived in the wide world, especially on her own.
I think they'd have a super close bond, I think they should visit Jasmine's home and have a snowball fight, I think she should take him to Borg Industries and watch Echo go starry eyed at all the cool technology, I think Jasmine would help replace his rusted gears and wires with ones that won't deteriorate as easily, i think she'd teach him how to garden and befriend animals and i think echo would be so thrilled to get away from the sea
I think if Echo and Jasmine ever got to meet, they'd find a comfort in each other and a confidant about some of their issues that no one else could provide
