House of Flames/House of Alarms

HOA Rewatch - Episodes 14/15

I’ve never mentioned this before but the opening theme just slaps

god the chandelier is so pretty

“don’t worry, it’ll be me who’ll be dusting it” I Love when trudy tells victor to mind his business

amber is such a good friend like she has important values and she knows the importance of the locket and even though she’s close with patricia she still upholds them

fabian. things you are trying to keep from the teachers. should probably not be. used in front of the teacher.

I wanna know if jerome ever Actually wrote ms. robinson a sonnet and if so how was it received

nina could definitely get the jewel bit of, she was just flirting with fabian

lmao nice cover fabian, you shouldn’t join any metal bands anytime soon

nina is so condescending. like. just say it’s a fireplace rather than teasing amber. don’t like this scene

“I don’t like you snooping around the house” lmaooo

lmaoo jerome just thirdwheeling alfie rapping amber’s song. he was like can’t miss this

does anyone know what the secret society chants? like has someone figured that out yet? I’m very curious but I’m Really bad at spelling (if you haven’t guessed by my posts yet lol) and don’t think I could get it right to put in a translator

akdhsjak patricia can be so mean. like. I Know she’s going through it a lot. but come on

rufus finding out the locket is in anubis house 😮😏🧐

lowkey think ms. andrews class would be a fun english class

wait she teaches french

does she teach both?? that would be kinda annoying

she’s just the language gal in general

“nobody. not one body.” I love amber so much

amber’s like I Am Not Thirdwheeling

nathalia’s acting is not it this episode. it’s weird, the previous episode was fine and I’m pretty the next one is. she just. had an off day ig

fr rufus? using your same initials was a dumb bitch idea

“she could send us back to a fireplace in 1972” wait. isn’t that. the point. like aren’t you trying to find old fireplaces that have been boarded up around the time central heating was a thing.

poor sarah. she has so many people wanting things from her and she just can’t :((

wow even jerome and alfie went along with the silent treatment

why have the all switched spots this dinner? mara, alfie, amber, and fabian are all in the a different seat then they normally are.

that fake oven was the best thing to happen to them, could you imagine how hard it would’ve been to get down to the attic in s2 if they Had to go through the door under victors office

well ig there’s the alfie and jerome way of the window but that was never used again. I wonder why, it seems like it would be smart to sometimes pretend you were at the school/library and never walk in the house. mix up your methods

“bad things don’t happen when the lights are on” she’s definitely not entirely wrong, the only bad thing I remember happening in daylight was patricia/nina’s kidnapping

victor: actively going down the steps. nina, in her normal loud voice: hide!!! victor: 🧐🤔🤔

well that’s this episode, I enjoyed it was a nice, kinda filler but still some good bits :)

#house of anubis #mine #hoa #sibuna #victor rodenmaar #nina martin #fabian rutter #amber millington #patricia williamson #jerome clarke #alfie lewis #mara jaffray #mick campbell #rufus zeno #trudy rehmann #hoa rewatch #why was this stuck in my drafts?#anyways I'm rewatching so might as well continue this series

Smiffina Episodes - Episode 348

Roger and Yvonne attend the scene of a RTA where a young boy has been knocked over. The driver is found at the scene after trying to run away. It turns out that the driver stole the car and he insists the child just ran out in front of him. The boys dies from massive internal injuries. If the driver sticks to his story it's going to be a struggle to pin dangerous driving on him as there are no witnesses. The father, Jeff, blames himself because he took his eyes off him for a second to answer the phone. The driver insists they've got nothing on him - other than joyriding and driving without a licence, he refuses to even consider that he was to blame.

Amanda hears Smithy and June talking about Gina and advises Smithy to stay away from Gina because she can't be helped. More likely Amanda's worried more people will find out what she did if people talk to Gina!

Reg is very happy to be leading the anniversary proceedings for the celebration. He 'volunteers' Reg and Lance to help him chaperoning guests and making things run smoothly.

Gabriel is overwhelmed with the amount of stuff to sort out and the whole pretending to be someone else thing which would require a lot of sorting out and a high risk of being caught out. June tells him he's living in cloud cuckoo land and that he's got a bank account, NI number, driving licence etc in her sons name and not his own and that he's claimed everything else of her sons to be his. June tells him that if he doesn't tell Sheelagh then she will. He tries to threaten her and June's far passed the point of actually being scared of him and doesn't care. She gives him a week to talk to Sheelagh. He actually thanks her and promises he won't let her down.

Roger supports the father, Jeff, and is gently and kind and tells him that they're doing everything they can. Amanda however is on the phone to the press as she arrives and tells them that she wants it specifically mentioned that they're doing all they can and that she personally visited the father. She knocks whilst still on the telephone and interupts Roger telling Jeff that they have some concerns with the prelimary findings which means the driver will only be charged with with aggrevated vehicle taking, driving with no insurance and no licence and not death by dangerous driving. Amanda puts her foot in it massively and upsets Jeff, inflaming the situation. Jeff throws her out of the house and in turn Roger too. Amanda then blames Roger for it backfiring int he manner it did!

Smithy goes to Adam's house to speak to him, knowing Gina will have told him nothing. Adam's been working as a volunteer at a homeless shelter to keep him busy as he hates being in the house alone. Smithy updates him on the happenings at Sun Hill, telling Adam that it's like Gina is being forced out by Amanda and that Amanda's lost the respect of the entire station through it as they all know that it wasn't Gina who sent S019 to the wrong house. Adam insists it will be fine as Gina won't let it knock her - but Smithy tells him that it's like Gina has given up and just rolled over. Smithy begs him to return to take the helm but Adam is not at all sure and asks for time to think about it.

Yvonne and Roger have to arrest Jeff for assaulting the driver of the car who killed his son. Amanda tells Roger to release him straight away rather than let him calm down and she demands that Roger makes the driver NOT press charges. Jeff demands that the boy is arrested again and Amanda tells him she hasn't read the file and she can't do that. She tells him it was an accident and that they're all deeply sorry. She's incredibly useless and simply inflames Jeff over again. He screams at her that he wants the man who killed his son brought to justice. She simply tells him they're doing everything they can to help him and escapes back to her office, leaving Yvonne to take him home.

Adam goes to see Gina and she guesses immediatley that Smithy sent him. She tells him she's lost her fight and she's not doing a great deal to secure her job back because she doesn't have the energy to deal with it right now. She 'rememebers' she's got to be somewhere and he leaves. He tells her she's the best Super he's ever worked under and that she's being pushed out for something that isn't her fault. She admits she doesn't want to work under Amanda so is considering her options. Adam tells her he's considering returning and asks if she'd work under him again. She's surprised - but of course she would! She agrees to return to the station for the anniversary do and admits she lied about 'having things to do' and closes the door.

There's a shock instore for both June and Gabriel at the front desk. The Real Gabriel Kent has arrived, asking to see June. It doesn't half confuse Laura however when the man gives his name as 'Gabriel Kent'.

The Fake Gabriel is putting up posters advertising his and Sheelagh's engagement party as Laura arrives and asks him if he's seen June because there's a bloke at the front desk asking for her. "You're not going to believe this, but his name is Gabriel Kent." she tells him. The Fake Gabriel assures Laura he's a bit of a nutter and that he'll deal with it and goes through to see his brother - The Real Gabriel Kent. The Real Gabriel is amazed to see him and shocked that his brother is a police officer and tells him he's there to see June.

The Fake Gabriel (TFG) tells The Real Gabriel (TRG)* they can sort it out but that they need to go upstairs to a private quiet room so it's not played out in front of people whilst TRG gets to know his birth mother.

Outside the station Jeff Clarke is watching it fill up with visitors for the anniversary. Laura spots him outside and asks if he's ok, he assures her he's fine and continues looming.

Reg is running around in old fashioned police clothing, trying his best to get everything set up and ordering the others around to help. Tony has to tell him that the old Sun Hill officer that he'd arranged to make a talk has hurt his back and can't come after 'helping' with an arrest earlier. Reg says he'll drive him to the hospital and that Tony has to take over for him and do the introductions.

TRG is even more confused as he talks with his brother as he wanted to be a police officer and it just so happens that his brother is stationed at the same station as his birth mother. He suggests it can't be a coincidence but TFG insists it is and says that June isn't in that day, what a shame it is considering he came all that way to see her. TRG just smiles, telling TFG that he's now home for good having lost his job and his marriage having ended. He's going nowhere - sending more alarm bells ringing for TFG. TRG asks how he got into the MET after his 'trouble' in the Navy. Laura appears and calls TFG 'Gabriel' which suddenly explains it all to TRG. (cor this is exhausting!) TRG wants to thrash it out, knowing that he's stolen his identity. TRG knows just how twisted his brother is. TFG refuses to let him leave.

Terry arrives back at the station after a covert operation he's been on all day. Amanda tells him he has to show guests around CID. He explains but she won't take no for an answer - he has to show them round now or else. Gina turns up for the anniversary do on Adam's arm, nervous that she might not be allowed in because she's been suspended. He assures her it'll be fine.

Jeff is in the front office with the rest of the people invited, he tells Terry that he's not there for the anniversary, he wants to talk to someone about his son. Amanda is horrified to see him and interupts as Terry wants to take him somewhere to explain the process gently. Amanda tells him that she'll take him to her office and leads him upstairs - telling him he's come at a bad time as it's actually a celebration. Jeff is clearly on the edge but she doesn't appear to realise and just continues upstairs, "It's always best to deal with these things whilst they're fresh." She tells him in a dismissive bored tone.

TFG insists that stealing his brothers life and identity is no big deal and can all be sorted out. "Yes it can." nods TRG. "You're going to tell them the truth." TFG turns it all round to be TRG's fault that this happened in the first place, claiming he just wanted to be like him. TFG claims he's finally found something he's good at and that he's not going to let TRG ruin it. TFG offers to pay him whatever he wants to return to America. "Either you tell them the truth or I do. So what's it going to be, David?" TFG freezes, plotting and he finally agrees that yes, he will resign. "But not now. Everyone's tied up with the do. Who could I talk to?" TRG knows he's playing for time and TFG scoffs. "Who are you going to tell? You just going to grab someone and blurt it out? People wil think you're a nutter." TFG tells him to come back the next morning to speak to June. TRG demands he let him leave but TFG won't let him. "Face it David, your little game is over."

Amanda inflames Jeff's feelings further, telling him that she's very sorry - yet again - but nothing can be done. She asks him to leave... as Jeff produces a gun. "You keep saying you're sorry, but you're not. All you had to do was listen."

TRG charges out of the room with TFG at his heels, grabbing him and telling him he doesn't know where he's going. They come face to face with Amanda being held at gun point and Jeff orders them to stay where they are. "Just do what he says!" Amanda says, terrified.

Next time on The Bill... it's the second live ep!

As an aside, for extra LOLS, each time James Barriscale is in The Bill as Gabriel Kent, he is credited as 'The Real Gabriel Kent' 😂😂

Just rewatched a bunch of Frankie Drake episodes & I'm so frustrated. I'm gonna be ranting about the show for a bit so if you want to skip i will tag the posts with 'f d rant'. I will also put most of it below the read more.

I really like almost every character except the titular frankie and her wardrobe/costumes makes me increasingly angry.

Trudy is a gem and I wish she was the focus. She is cunning, adventurous and could honestly run the agency by herself. She does most of the groundwork anyway & has almost all of the important contacts. Also she is gorgeous in anything.

I want more of Flo's backstory and would have really liked an episode focused on her. The other girls had at least one each so I can only assume one was planned for Flo before the show was cancelled. I just like her general vibe and the scenes she is in are always good. A woman studying on her own while holding a job she is passionate about is easy for me to relate to and Flo is a great character with strong loyal ties.

Mary is hilarious and the only thing I wish was different was that Frankie & Trudy included her more or actually gave her information back intead of just taking it from her, often without a thank you until the general 'good-job-everyone' at the episodes end. Sure she is naive and is made fun of by that by the narrative and a lot of the other characters, but she states outright that she's not living in a bubble and tries to make the best choices she has with what she's allowed to know. Considering few people (even her friends!) actually bothers to tell her relevant information in time it's no wonder her actions are sometimes misguided. I have a hard time relating to her cop-behaviour, but it's a strong motivator for her character.

I really love Wendy and she could not show up enough times! Same with Nora. She is a dynamic character that really brings excitement to any scene.

Jerome Centric House of Anubis Chapter One

AN: No, you aren't going nuts, I have posted a chapter of the same name before, but that's now long in the past! I've decided to go a different route with the book, so this is the new first chapter, which will start when JEROME first went to Anubis House, not Nina. In addition, the book will be Jerome centered, but will also focus on the other students (I have to think of a snappier name for the title lol). Technically the main characters will be Jerome, Nina, and Fabian. Also MASSIVELY important is that this is not entirely canon compliant! There will be a lot of changes, such as Jerome being the Osirian, this is not just going to be a retelling of the same story from Jerome's POV. Enjoy!

Jerome had never been on a train alone before. He wasn’t exactly alone, there was a stewardess sitting across from him, who only left to make a few announcements and serve everyone food and drinks. He had a cup of hot chocolate in front of him, steam still rising over the edge of the mug. Trees and towns passed by in a blur, Jerome watching curiously as the train disappeared into a tunnel.

“Is this your first time on a train?” The stewardess asked as he took a sip of the hot chocolate.

“No.” Jerome reached his hand into the backpack sitting beside him, feeling the soft yet tattered fur of his stuffed tiger. He held it’s hand, his arm still in his backpack and the tiger out of sight. “It’s my first time alone. I aged out of my old boarding school. My mom said I was old enough to go to the new one alone.”

“Strange.” The stewardess commented, then blushed slightly. “Sorry. Bad habit. That’s none of my business.”

“It’s okay.” Jerome shrugged. He let go of his tiger and zipped his bag back up. The stewardess stood and moved over to the bar cart.

“I’ll be right back. Do you want a sandwich?”

He shook his head and watched her walk down the aisle for a moment. He’d been on the train for hours. He was admittedly hungry, but he didn’t want to eat. He felt nauseous, the hot cocoa sloshing around in his stomach and making him all the more queasy. Bad idea to eat or drink anything when he was this nervous. He stood and found the bathroom the stewardess had shown him when she’d been assigned to look over him during his trip. He went to the bathroom, and washed his hands, making a bit of a mess as some of the soap missed his hand, splattering onto the floor.

His hair was a fluffy mess, as he surveyed himself in the mirror, and there were barely noticeable bags under his eyes from his lack of sleep. He was too nervous to sleep the night before, and his three roommates at his old school had caused a ruckus all night, knowing that they were going home or to some new school, and the teachers didn’t really care to punish them. He hadn’t told any of them where he was going, while they planned to write each other and text. He didn’t have a phone to text on, and didn’t know what the address of his new dorm would be.

He didn’t really know if they’d want to keep in touch anyways. They were friends, but the kind of friends that little kids sharing a room were. Jack was more friends with Garrison, and Henry was closer with some of the boys from the room next to theirs. Jerome doubted they’d ever see each other again, not wherever they were going. Better to lose contact fast than bother writing letters to boys he’d presumably forget the names of when he grew up.

“Oh, there you are.” The stewardess said as he came out and sat back down. His hands were still wet. The hot chocolate in the cup was starting to look more like sludge. “So, what year are you going into?”

“Six. I’m ten.” Jerome answered. “My old boarding school only went up to year five.”

“I graduated a few years ago, started working here right after that. I want to be a stewardess for an airline someday.”

“Cool.” Jerome said a bit mutely as the train began to slow, the loud whistle sounding again. The stewardess stood, grabbing one of the packed sandwiches of her cart and handing it to him. Jerome pulled on his backpack, grabbing his suitcase as he stood up. He looked at the sandwich bag. The wrapper said it was ham with colby jack cheese.

“Here. You can have that. Come on, this is your stop.” She held out her hand, but Jerome didn’t take it, following her to the exit and getting out. “All right, lets find your taxi.” She said as she took him through the busy station. His suitcase bumped into the back of his knees a few times. “It’s Clarke, isn’t it?”

“Yeah.” He nodded, surveying the few black taxis waiting for people outside.

“Taxi for Clarke?” The stewardess began to ask, repeating it as she walked to each one. “Taxi for Clarke?”

“Jerome Clarke?” On of the drivers finally repeated. She looked back at him and he nodded, coming a little closer. The driver took his bag and popped the trunk to put it inside.

“Do you have your folder?” She asked. “Get it out your bag. The driver knows where you’re going.” She turned to him for a brief moment to repeat that he was an unsupervised child, then turned back to Jerome. “Alright, you should be all set, okay? Hope you have fun at your school kid, I have to get back to the train.”

“...Bye.” Jerome said reluctantly. She turned and left, the taxi driver opening the back door for him.

They drove in complete silence, Jerome holding his folder against his chest, his backpack down by his feet. The driver didn’t bother to ask any questions like the stewardess had, or make any conversation until they were pulling up to the school.

“You need to be with the orientation groups, yes?” He confirmed. “That’s over by the main school, where all the kids are.”

“Okay.” Jerome said flatly, reaching into his pocket for the envelope his mother had given him to pay the driver. It had felt strange to be home with his mother. He hadn’t seen her in a long time, not since he’d left to go to the full time boarding school. Poppy had clung to his legs like a koala bear to a tree the whole time, acting like she’d never seen her brother before. He supposed it had been a while since they’d been living together like normal siblings. He didn’t even have a room really at home, it was more of a guest room. “Here.”

The man took it without a word and he got out, getting his suitcase and reluctantly walking over to the big group of kids.

“Quiet please!” An older man with slightly greying hair and a bowtie on called into the crowd, holding up a hand. “Hello all new students and welcome to Amun academy! In just a moment I will be splitting you into groups of three, to go to your houses, but first I wanted to give you all a personal welcome, and tell you that we are happy to have you here, joining our ranks as the newest students. I am Mr. Sweet, your principal, and I will also be teaching the science class for the older students.”

Jerome shifted side to side, looking away from Mr. Sweet to the older students walking to their houses and chatting excitedly to their friends. He watched as a boy picked up a girl and flung her over his shoulder, spinning her around while she laughed.

“-right those are the students for the house of Ra, now for Thoth! Hailey Buemont, Jessica-”

Jerome looked back over at Mr. Sweet, noticing now that the kids were getting into groups. One group was already together, all talking together and introducing themselves, while another was beginning to form as the students’ names were called. Jerome listened as the second group was finished, and Mr. Sweet moved onto the house of Bastet.

His name still wasn’t called. He must be in Ra house then, must have missed his name when he was distracted.

He took a single step towards their group, and Mr. Sweet zeroed in on him. “And are you Jerome Clarke?”

He looked at him nervously, all of the students staring at him now. “Yeah.” Mr. Sweet beckoned him up, Jerome trudging his shoes through the grass as he slowly made his way over. “...Yeah?” He repeated.

“Right, Jerome Clarke.” Mr. Sweet looked as uncomfortable as Jerome felt. “Unfortunately Jerome, boarding is usually only for students in year seven and above, and all underclassmen are day students. Normally a student will be assigned a house, and they will stay there for the remainder of the school years.”

“I know how boarding schools work.” Jerome said bluntly, his hands shaking at his sides. What had his mother done, why had she sent him to a boarding school that didn’t board kids his age?

“Right, so we’ve decided that instead of placing you with a group of our seventh years, we’ll place you in one of the houses with our oldest students.” Mr. Sweet said. “That way you won’t be younger than everyone, and the oldest for your last year. Instead you will be in Anubis house, and when the older students have graduated and new students come next year, you’ll all be the same age. Is that…alright, Mr. Clarke?”

He sounded very worried Jerome would be stupid enough to believe that was actually a question he could have an opinion on. “Sure. Okay.”

Mr. Sweet let out a small sigh of relief. “Excellent! Pleasure to see you then Jerome, I will leave you with Mr. Rodenmaar, he will take you to the house.”

Jerome only then realized there was another man standing slightly behind him, jumping as he took a step away.

“Follow me Mr. Clarke.” Mr. Rodenmaar demanded as he walked with purpose towards the dormitory buildings. “I will give you a tour of Anubis house and introduce you to the house mother, Mrs. Trudy Rehmaan, who will show you your room.”

Anubis house loomed over Jerome. He heard a faint, hissed sound, almost like a whispering, as Victor pulled open the front door. The man immediately set into a boring monologue about the house's history, and the long list of rules. Jerome tuned it all out.

His eyes wandered to different things around the house as Mr. Rodenmaar lead him through. The crocodile in the living room, the grandfather clock in the hall, the ugly mosaic hanging on the wall. Trudy had joined them with comments of Victor “boring the poor boy to death”, showing Jerome the room he'd be sleeping in. It was clear which bed was his, compared to the fully decorated sides of the room, proudly displaying personality and style. Jerome's bed was awkwardly crammed into a corner of the room. The mattress was mostly bare, with a single white sheet covering it, and the floor was covered in his trunks.

“I'll leave you to unpack.” Trudy said, patting Jerome's shoulder as she left.

“Supper will be served at the school dining hall.” Victor said, pointing his watch fob at Jerome's chest. “I've heard about you, boy. Break any of the rules and there will be consequences, is that understood?”

“...Yeah.” Jerome said reluctantly. Victor left him without another word, and Jerome unpacked his things in silence. The door slammed open as he was putting away his pants and two boys ran in, both fighting over a phone.

“Don’t you dare-don’t you dare!” The boy chasing the other laughed, tackling him to a bed. “Brandon give it back or I swear-”

They both stopped when they noticed Jerome, the boy snatching the phone out of Brandon’s hand as he was distracted.

“So. You’re the pipsqueak.” Brandon said decidedly.

Jerome flushed. “I’m not a pipsqueak. I’m ten.”

“Shortstack then.” The other laughed. “Jerry, right?”

“Jerome.” Jerome corrected in a mumble. The boys ignored him after that, chatting loudly to each other about their summer vacations while Jerome finished unpacking. He hid his backpack under his bed, shooting one last look at the boys as he silently left the room and went into the living room. Three girls were sitting crowded around each other on the couch, watching and giggling as he sat in one of the armchairs, trying his best not to look out of place.

“God you’re so little.” One of the girls said in a fake nice voice, twirling a light blue streak of hair around her finger. The other girls nudged her through their quiet tittered laughs. “Are you sure you aren’t in year four? Or two?” She laughed at that, Jerome’s blush reaching the tips of his ears.

“No, I’m in year six.” He muttered.

“I’m Isabella.” One of the other girls said, tilting her head towards the girl who’d made fun of him. “That’s Zoe, and this is Esperanza.”

“Gosh you really are small.” Esperanza commented. “No way we were ever that small. Can you even reach the top cabinet in a kitchen?”

“Of course I can.” He said defensively. Reaching the top shelf of a cabinet? That was another story. Zoe studied him for a moment, then tugged on Esperanza’s sleeve.

“Well, we better be going.” She said with feigned nonchalance. “Lots to do before school starts tomorrow.” The girls all stood and left, Trudy walking in with a bouquet of flowers.

“Look what I bought for the house!” She said cheerily as she moved to set them in a vase. “That’s much better. Do you know your way to the dining hall lovie? It’s almost supper time.” Jerome shook his head, and she held out a hand. “I’ll walk you down then. Come on.”

Jerome looked towards the stairs, making sure the girls had definitely made it up to their rooms, then took her hand as she led him outside.
