I tried to emulate the style of AA sprites (mainly Investigations) and I’m happy with the result :)

A Power Unbound

Secrets! Magic! Enemies to… something more? Jack Alston, Lord Hawthorn, would love a nice, safe, comfortable life. After the death of his twin sister, he thought he was done with magic for good. But with the threat of a dangerous ritual hanging over every magician in Britain, he’s drawn reluctantly back into that world. Now Jack is living in a bizarre puzzle-box of a magical London townhouse, helping an unlikely group of friends track down the final piece of the Last Contract before their enemies can do the same. And to make matters worse, they need the help of writer and thief Alan Ross. Cagey and argumentative, Alan is only in this for the money. The aristocratic Lord Hawthorn, with all his unearned power, is everything that Alan hates. And unfortunately, Alan happens to be everything that Jack wants in one gorgeous, infuriating package. When a plot to seize unimaginable power comes to a head at Cheetham Hall—Jack’s ancestral family estate, a land so old and bound in oaths that it’s grown a personality as prickly as its owner—Jack, Alan and their allies will become entangled in a night of champagne, secrets, and bloody sacrifice… and the foundations of magic in Britain will be torn up by the roots before the end.

The Case of the Lame Canary, season 2 episode 30, last scene....

Hamilton Burger and Lt Tragg join everyone in Perry's office after the trial..

They ask Perry how he knew what he knew, and he says that a little bird told him...

As they all look down at the beautiful canary in the cage, Hamilton says, " A little bird, huh? That's the first time I've heard of a lame canary being a stool pigeon". They all find that very amusing, and so did I!!

minglana's 2024 films WRAPPED

im just kidding this is nowhere near close to a wrapped. its just a list of my favorite movies i watched this year. they are in no specific order though, because you cannot make me choose The Best ive watched this year, i refuse to, in fact.

be warned of spoilers ahead for some of these, btw!

The Lion in Winter (1968)- i really liked this movie, i went in not really knowing too much about it, but i think it will become a christmas classic. nothing says 'holidays' as much as family hatred and vengeance starring katharine hepburn <3

The Talk of the Town (1942)- OK SO. throuples am i right???? like most of these movies, i watched it because of cary grant, but i ended up enjoying it because of the overall plot of the three of them living together and what they get up to, basically. i did not care much for the social commentary aspect of it though.

Arsenic and Old Lace (1944)- loved it!!!! its also about to become a halloween classic, because nothing is as scary as whatever went on in that house, as a commentary on the foundation of the US of A, disguised as comedy.

Notorious (1946)- absolute banger of a film. im mad at myself for not watching it earlier. ingrid bergman is amaaaaaaaaziiiiinnnggg. in this film (and others, of course). but holy shit. she carries this film entirely. and the phone scene is something that can be so personal. what who said that👀. cary grant and ingrid bergman on screen together is also something that can be so personal. WHO SAID THAT!!!!!!!

The Philadelphia Story (1941)- absolute cary & katherine classic! this is a movie i watched mainly for the cast, but the plot did not dissapoint either.

Ladies Should Listen (1934)- very cute movie honestly! a lot happens in the hour that the film goes on but i liked that the plot got straight to the point. this movie really surprised me, i didn't expect much of it when i decided to watch it.

Holiday (1938)- another katherine & cary classic. not much else to say about this movie except that again, i loved both of them here as well lol.

Design for Living (1933)- what if you were a broke artist in paris and you and your best friend were in love w the same girl. and the girl decided to do a gentleman's agreement. and what if the three of yall lived happily ever after as a throuple. someone sedate me this film is very cute ok😭

His Girl Friday (1940)- the craziest (so to speak) film i watched this year, probably along with arsenic and old lace if im honest. i also kind of fell in love with rosalind russell here, i loved her character so much. also this year (2024) it entered public domain so, thats fun!

some fun facts about my film watching habits this year:

the newest-released film i watched (from 2023) was also the first one i watched this year, which was saltburn (watched on jan. 4th)

in total, i watched 29 films. of those films, 16 were starring cary grant.

the worst film i watched this year was, without a doubt, the pride and the passion (1957). i do not recommend anyone vaguely familiar with the iberian peninsula or spanish culture(s) watch it expecting it to be good. the only redeeming factors are sophia loren, and cary grant dressed as a spanish peasant.

i rewatched two movies this year: my favorite wife (1940), and bottoms (2023) (third time watching it, actually). a side fun fact is that i dont like rewatching/rereading/etc stuff. so you KNOW i liked these movies.

saltburn (2023), shiva baby (2020), and bottoms (2023) were the only movies i watched made in this millenium/century/last 20 years.

i only watched one (1) movie in a language that wasnt english (i was on a cary grant high this year, whoops), and it was in spanish, todo sobre mi madre (1999).

[waitineedaname]

oh my god. wait. modern au wei wuxian where he went to prison, and when he gets out he works his ass off to become a defense attorney. he's smart as hell and loves finding loop holes and calling people out when they're breaking their own rules. he'd be a fucking menace in the courtroom.

[a-hell-of-a-time]

((Also realizing that, by telling Vassago to shut the fuck up, he was overstepping his bounds and station.

Something to consider-))

[four-white-trees]

i need to stop reading books with "wife" in the title. maybe I'll stop getting bamboozled by domestic suspense.

[gegenbuchstabierung]

Absolutely would throw a lot of money at games workshop if they'll make a whole reality tv style show out of necron courtroom drama
