#amelia and delia

[shyjusticewarrior]

Jason has had lot of people violating his bodily autonomy lately

Task Force Z injecting him with lazarus resin after he'd told them to keep that shit away from him

Bruce drugging him and using a machine to give him debilitating fear when his adrenaline spikes

One of the Jokers spraying joker gas in his face

[guinevere-of-smiths]

I still think about the absolut Disaster (affectionate) an AU where TUH MC romanced John and still goes through with marrying Francis against her will could have been.

I mean, picture it. MC is married to Francis. MC still loves John. John still loves MC. Francis knows they still love each other and feels guilty that both of them are suffering. John feels guilty both that he stands in the way of his brother having a happy marriage and that he resents Francis for being married to the woman he loves. MC feels guily for the tension between the brothers. They all love each other but that love only causes pain because their unhappiness magnifies that of the others. John is too dutiful to consider an affair with his brother's wife. They can't stay away from each other. Staying away from each other is painful. Being together, but always forced to hide, would be moreso.

Francis still loves his wife's dead sister and all he sees when he looks at her is Amelia. Amelia who would hate that her baby sister is miserable.

MC knows he still loves her sister.

They all live together.

With his track record, John will probably just flee abroad within weeks. Then World War 1 happens, and while it is a distraction, John is also stuck in the trenches with no loving wife to write letters to, as he would have had in a slightly happier timeline.

Honestly, I want to write that AU just to describe Delia's horror when it all predictably crashes and burns.

GUYS GUYSGUYS OH MY GOD. OHMMYGOD I JUST FIGURED SOMETHING OUT

so after joker gets hit by a train solomon gives him this mysterious green liquid. i've been wondering what it was, my first though was maybe there was an undiscovered lazarus pit in the sewers or something like that. but i was rereading task force z and

it's lazarus resin!!!

maybe grundy grabbed a vial when he tackled bloom? but either way that is definitely the same type of vial and the color is similar (not identical but that's likely bc different artists/colorists!)

my running assumption has been that this line was metaphorical but it's not! it's literal!!! joker DID die when he got hit by the train but grundy brought him back with a vial of lazarus resin!

and i've been making mental connections between tfz and tmwsl the entire time but it was kinda theoretical (and still is!) but the lazarus resin thing makes my theories more plausible for sure imo

so in tfz there are clones, amelia, delia, and celia. the powers company has cloning tech. and they also have memory replacement tech!!! that's what they did with the fake bane! they tampered with his memories. the thinker says that he has cognitive profiles of metahumans but in issue 12 bloom manages to resurrect a dead corpse with the powers company resources and make it think that it's jason todd/red hood, who is definitely not a meta, so evidently they have tech to do the same for non-metas

so my theories are that either:

1. they cloned joker and implanted memories in the clone. this could maybe connect to the network plot in the joker (2021)

2. they found a very fresh corpse with a striking resemblance to joker, and then maybe gave him a nice acid bath and implanted the memories (or they found a way to do this with living people)

i think it's highly likely at this point that sewer rat undead!joker is the real joker, especially after knight terrors. so now the question is: if i'm right about this, who's behind the other (LA) joker? harvey? did bloom somehow survive? geri powers? maybe even waller? and what are they up to? is LA joker an escaped experiment or does whoever's controlling him have an agenda?

Masterlist

Catherine Hayes was at a complete loss. She'd actually believed she could be with the man she loved. After all, the Somerset family supported her. Though they were initially sad that she and Francis had decided against marrying, they'd still been kind to her, even considering her family.

She could still see Hugh's face when he thought they were finally free to be together. His smile twinkled brighter than the stars as he confessed his hopes for a future with her.

If only her stepmother, Delia, hadn't arrived. She was determined to see Catherine married to a peer of the realm. Titles and status were all she thought of. Anything that could elevate their already lofty level in society should be done to shine even more amongst the very wealthy of New York.

It was dreadful. Here Catherine stood, a young woman madly in love with another man, set to marry a man who though kind, was still deeply in love with her deceased sister.

Poor Francis, Catherine thought as she gazed out her window. How horrible it would be to marry someone who is a daily reminder of the one you lost.

And yet, in a few short minutes, that is exactly what would happen.

Catherine turned towards the standing mirror to gaze once more at her reflection. Her wedding gown was perfect. It was the dress she'd once dreamed of when playing make believe with her older sister, Amelia.

"Amelia." Tears came to her eyes. "What would you have me do? Would you want me marrying your Francis out of duty? Or would you rather I defy everyone and follow my heart?"

She searched for her handkerchief, pressing it to her eyes to stop her tears from leaving noticeable marks upon her cheeks. She sniffed, wishing she could once again be that carefree young girl who was able to daydream about her knight in shining armor.

Hugh Crawford at first glance might not appear the romantic hero. Yet Catherine had seen from the beginning that he was so much more than a mere solicitor. She didn't know what she would have done without his steadfast presence during the search for Amelia's murderer.

His kindness, his quick wit, everything about him drew her to him. She couldn't imagine a more perfect match for herself.

And now, as soon as the cue was given, she'd be separated from him for all eternity. There would be no chance to be together once she said her vows to Francis. There was nothing left for them to do.

Hugh already told her he was leaving England for good. Initially it had been his dream to practice law in America. Once he knew Catherine's family refused to let her marry anyone other than Mr. Francis Somerset, the future Viscount Ashbourne, Hugh was moving out of the country because he wouldn't be able to bear seeing her married to another.

Catherine knew he was somewhere in the chapel, sitting with the other guests. How was she going to be able to continue to walk down the aisle once she saw his face?

She was distracted from her thoughts when a brisk knock sounded at her door.

"Come in." Catherine called out.

Her maid and fellow sleuth, Effie came in, shutting the door behind her.

"Miss Hayes!" Effie was breathless with excitement and from rushing about. "I followed up on your suspicion."

Catherine blinked, her thoughts returning once more to Amelia's last words.

Blood runs.

Being half sisters, Amelia and Catherine's late mother stressed that blood does not run thicker than water. With so many people saying that the Hayes were not a true family in the same sense as many of their fellow wealthy counterparts, Amelia made certain that her younger sister never felt like she didn't belong. When their father married Delia and produced their younger brothers, this notion was repeated often to make each member feel more secure.

It was why Amelia's last words were so puzzling. If she wanted them to be a reminder of her love for Catherine, then she would have said blood does not run, instead of blood runs.

That's what spurred Catherine to take advantage of being in Huntsbury Hall. If the marquess was willing to murder her sister to protect his secret family in India, then perhaps his wife had a hand in it also to protect the legitimate family she had with him in England.

"Look what I found!" Effie handed her various letters from Vincent's mistress.

Catherine scanned the letters' contents. The hair on the back of her neck rose as she read about the marchioness knowing about her husband's other family and being the one to pay to keep them out of England.

At that moment, Rebecca, the Marchioness of Huntsbury walked in, quietly locking the door behind her.

"All is ready." She said in a cheery voice. "I must say, Miss Hayes that you look absolutely lovely."

"Th-thank you." Catherine stuttered.

She pasted a forced smile upon her face.

Rebecca's eyes zeroed in on the papers Catherine was hiding behind her back.

"Whatever have you got there? Surely you don't wish to walk down the aisle with those in hand."

She snatched them away from Catherine. Recognizing them for what they were, her pleasant demeanor turned to one of quiet rage.

"Why couldn't you leave well enough alone?" Her eyes narrowed upon the young lady. "Just like Amelia, you are determined to make everyone's private affairs your own."

Catherine paled the moment Rebecca pulled out a revolver.

"Lady Huntsbury!" She quickly said. "I understand your worries. With your eldest thinking of remaining in America, your younger children would be overlooked for their inheritance if Lord Hunstbury's other sons were to return and stake claim to his title."

"Then you see why the bribes had to be done." Rebecca kept the revolver directed at Catherine's heart.

"I do." Catherine tried to keep her tone reasonable. "But you can't force a woman and her children from returning home. They have rights too! And--"

"And like Amelia, you don't care that my children and I could lose everything?!" Rebecca snapped. "Vincent did nothing but bring us near financial ruin while he gave in to his lust."

She sneered at the very thought.

"I'm the one who has kept this estate and our family together! And if you think I won't do everything I can to keep it that way, then remember what happened to your sister."

"You killed her." Catherine shook her head in disbelief. "You risked everything to silence her."

"And you're next." Rebecca cocked the trigger.

"Is this the legacy you wish to leave your children? Their father a philanderer and their mother a murderess?"

"I'm leaving them a legacy of a mother who was willing to do anything for them!"

Rebecca took a deep breath.

"Goodbye Miss Hayes."

The door drew their attention once more.

Hugh was banging on it.

"Catherine, let me in!"

Delia's voice could be heard behind him, scolding him to return to the chapel.

He broke through the old lock, bursting into the room.

"Catherine, I can't let you go through with this wedding." He shook off Delia's hand trying to pull him from the room.

"You will leave my stepdaughter alone!" Delia snapped.

Catherine shook her head as the two were in the line of Rebecca's gun.

"Look out!" She shouted.

The pair turned and noticed the marchioness.

"Good heavens!" Delia exclaimed. "What are you--"

"ENOUGH!" Rebecca pulled the trigger.

Catherine attempted to push Hugh out of the way as he did the same with her. The couple tumbled to the ground. The bullet went into Hugh's side.

As Rebecca raised the gun to shoot them again, Catherine managed to knock it from her hand.

The marchioness went to grab a letter opener, determined to get rid of the young woman who knew all her secrets. She was beyond reason now and didn't care who witnessed her act of murder.

Delia snatched it away from her.

"You will not harm my Catherine!" She told her, pointing the slender knife at her.

Hugh struggled to his feet and knocked the marchioness down. He pinned her arms behind her back, shouted for Effie to call the constable, and checked to make certain Catherine was not hurt.

"Hugh, you're bleeding!" Catherine stumbled over to him.

She ignored Rebecca's shouts about Catherine and Amelia ruining her children's lives.

"I'm fine." Hugh bit out.

The color from his face was draining quickly as he handed the woman over to the authorities.

"Hugh!" Catherine tried to catch him as he collapsed to the ground.

"I'll get the car! We can get him to the hospital faster than waiting on a doctor to come." Delia ran out of the room with Effie following to find help amongst the guests.

"Hugh." Catherine cradled his head in her lap.

She gently smoothed his hair back from his forehead, tears falling down her cheeks.

His breathing was labored as he tried to remain conscious.

Hugh looked up at her. His lips twisted in a painful smile.

"Hello there."

Catherine laughed.

"Hello." She pressed her lips to his forehead. "Oh Hugh."

"Shh." He raised a trembling hand to cup her cheek. "None of that."

She sniffed, unable to stop her tears.

He gently urged her down for a kiss. Hugh could feel his strength leaving. Blackness ebbed at the edge of his vision, threatening to consume him.

His last thought was that if was to die, he wanted her lips to the last thing he felt on this earth.

Catherine returned the tender kiss. Her breath hitched when she felt his hand fall from her cheek.

"Hugh!" She pleaded. "Please, don't leave me. I love you so much. I need you--"

His eyes closed as the blood continued to seep from his wound.

*****************

Catherine sat by his bedside as the doctor explained the extent of the surgery. She held tight to his hand, willing him to wake up and reassure her that he would recover.

Delia and her sister Maude listened quietly to what the young solicitor had endured. They also couldn't ignore the obvious feelings Catherine had for him.

Once the doctor left, the entire story of Lord and Lady Huntsbury's actions were discussed.

"But why would she do it?" Delia repeated.

"She was determined to do anything for her children." Catherine pointed out. "No matter who it hurt."

Delia winced over that jab.

"I refuse to be anything like that mad woman." She stated.

Maude cleared her throat. "Our Catherine shared with me a while back her feelings for Mr. Crawford. Surely, you don't intend to keep them apart after all that's happened."

Delia met her stepdaughter's tearful gaze.

Her heart softened as she realized what she'd done to one she truly loved as a real daughter.

"You're right. I don't intend to." She reached over and took Catherine's free hand. "Forgive me, my dear. I won't force you to marry Francis."

"Delia!" Catherine hugged her. "Thank you!"

Delia shivered once she let her go. The mere thought of turning into the marchioness worried her. She'd been so ready to sacrifice the happiness of another to ensure that the right doors would always be open for her sons. She refused to go any further down that particular path.

"We'll leave you alone with Mr. Crawford." Delia gently patted Catherine's shoulder.

"We'll see you back at Lord and Lady Ashbourne's, cherub." Maude told her with a wink. "I believe you have some news to share with your Mr. Crawford once he awakens."

Catherine hugged her.

"Thank you, Auntie Maude." She whispered, tears glistening in her eyes. "For everything."

Maude kissed her cheek and quietly slipped out of the room.

"Catherine?" Hugh said softly.

She hurried to his bedside, taking his hand once more.

"Yes, Hugh?"

"I had the strangest dream." He mumbled.

"About what?" She pressed a kiss to his forehead.

His eyes searched hers. "That you were set free from your engagement."

Catherine captured his lips in a tender kiss.

"It isn't a dream any longer, darling." She whispered. "I am free to be with whomever my heart belongs to."

Hugh weakly grasped her hand. "I don't suppose you're willing to let it belong to a lowly, English solicitor?"

She smiled at him. "I'm afraid I can't give it to him now. For you see, he's had my heart this entire time."

"What a lucky fellow, he is." Hugh lifted her hand to his lips. "He lost his to you the moment he first laid eyes upon you."

"We are both lucky." Catherine pressed their clasped hands to her cheek. "Now, I need you to get well quickly."

"And why is that?" Hugh teased. "This is the first time I've been allowed to laze about in bed."

"I intend to make an honest man of you, Mr. Crawford. We're going to follow your family's tradition and have the little solicitors your family requires all Crawford's to bear. We will move to America and set up your new practice."

Hugh's smile grew as she went through all the plans for their future.

"And once in New York, we'll" Catherine paused as he tugged on her hand.

"Come here." He said.

Catherine leaned over, smiling as he gently ran his fingers through her hair, urging her down for a tender kiss.

"With a future like that, how could I possibly tarry in getting better?" He whispered.

Well there's plenty of names you can use that rhyme with Amelia;

Camelia

Delia

Cecilia

Ophelia

Aurelia

Though this really depends on some certain factors; do you want it to rhyme? Or for it to relate to trains? Do you want it to retain their first letter E and I?

- 💌

rhyming doesn't really matter to me im just kinda looking for matching opposite names in the same vein as nobori&kudari/ingo&emmet etc. train related would also be epic tho

[guinevere-of-smiths]

Something that has always bothered me about the beginning of TUH: why on earth would MC's father and Delia let their young, unmarried daughter travel across the Atlantic unchaperoned? Especially if she needed that good reputation more than ever, given that she was on her way to get married to an aristocrat in already somewhat difficult circumstances? I used to think that the random passenger she expositions her feelings to could have easily been written as someone paid to accompany her, but then it hit me last night while writing fanfic.

Aunt Maude.

I'd assume Aunt Maude travelled to New York to attend Amelia's funeral, possibly even on the same vessel that brought over her body. Watsonically speaking, it would have made all the sense in the world for her to stick around for the next few weeks to spend time with her grieving niece and nephews and then accompany MC over to England. Problem solved.

From a Doylist point of view I am of course aware that they introduced Aunt Maude when she was relevant to the story because that is how storytelling works. And that I am thinking about this way harder than the writers did. But still, point is, she really should have been chaperoned, and at least Random Passenger Lady would have been ideal for that.
