Happy 1 Year to the tumblr sexyman finale showdown that killed the queen

[sboochi]

Omg, your Merlin/Good Omens comic is so cute. Also got such a brilliant idea! The Metatron apparently has plans for a second apocalypse and Arthur is supposed to rise again when the world needs him most. Good Omens 3 is about a second coming - the second coming of Arthur, mayhaps? 👀

The hardest thing so far about this au is trying not to make it too similar to s2 and (eventually) s3, because I decided it's set before s2 (so around 2022)! This way I can conveniently avoid those future plot points (mostly the finale. Hard to have a Fun Silly Mistery when 2/4 characters are going through mental breakdowns)

So! Arthur isn't the second coming that will happen, or another apocalypse. It's something different. Worse than those?? 👀

i gotta be real for a sec.......... i have been kind of bored of my own characters lately and i find it hard to bring myself to draw or write about them at the moment no matter what i do ;__; i hope it's just my regular october-february depression or the state of my physical health atm and not part of a bigger problem LOL

also i gotta start working on new uni projects soon which is why there will be bigger breaks between my art posts !! xoxo

“Mummy! Mummy!” Matilda yells, barreling full speed down the stairs.

“Heavens, Matilda, what is it?” Jenny replies, resting a hand over her racing heart and checking to make sure Matilda hasn’t fallen down the stairs running so quickly.

“Look! Look what I found in the attic!” Matilda says eagerly, holding out a small box.

“Matilda, I’ve told you not to go up there on your own. It could be dangerous,” Jenny chides.

“I’m careful!” Matilda retaliates.

“Careful doesn’t prevent tetanus,” Jenny says.

“I’m careful and I’ve had all my pokes,” Matilda huffs. Jenny rolls her eyes lovingly, knowing she won’t get anywhere, and takes the proffered box.

It’s absolutely covered in dust, so Jenny turns away from Matilda’s face and blows as much as she can off. The box is made of sturdy cardboard, and covered with a flower-patterned paper, yellowed by age. It’s stained in a few places, but her mother’s name is etched on the top in a dark ink.

Jenny opens the lid with a small creak, and has to bite her lip to hold back tears at what she finds inside.

Note card upon note card. Beautiful parchment cards, with pressed flowers adorning the corners and her mother’s neat cursive in tidy little rows.

“These… these are my mother’s recipes,” Jenny says softly, gently flipping through them. The recipes range from things like waffle batter to Sunday roasts, handy casseroles to muffins, pasta dishes to delicious cakes and everything in between.

“Can we make some?” Matilda asks eagerly. “Please?”

Jenny smiles down at her own daughter, and she nods. “Pick one.”

Matilda takes the box like she’s just been handed the Ark of the Covenant and carefully flips through the aged paper recipes. She pulls out one towards the back and holds it out.

Jenny takes it to see what she’s picked and smiles. Christmas Pudding, with small crocus blossoms pressed into each corner. Jenny reads over it, and her brow furrows ever so slightly.

“Oh dear, this is quite involved,” she says.

“Can we do it?” Matilda asks softly. Jenny peeks over the card at her saddened little face, and feels a swell of determination.

“Go get some paper, please, we’ll need to make a shopping list,” she says. Matilda smiles widely and tackles her in a hug before running off to fetch one of her school notebooks and pens. Jenny has her rush about the kitchen to see what they have enough of already and adds the rest to their shopping list.

They button up their coats and head off towards the nearest grocery shop.

—-

“Christmas pudding, eh?” the cashier asks when they rest their purchases on the counter to be rung up.

“Yes,” Matilda says, for once eagerly speaking to the person behind the counter. “It’s my grandmother’s recipe. We’ve never made it before and we’re trying it for the first time ever.”

“How lovely,” the cashier responds as he scans their items. “No nuts in your recipe, then?”

Jenny chuckles as she remembers the small Absolutely no nuts!!! that had been scrawled just beneath the title in her father’s blocky writing. “I don’t think so, no.”

“Everyone’s got something different. Me nan always used walnuts, but my mum never used anything of the sort,” the cashier says. He bags up all their items and hands them over once Jenny has paid for everything. “You lot have a Merry Christmas. Good luck with the pudding.”

“Thank you,” Jenny says appreciatively. She and Matilda wave and wish him a Merry Christmas as they head back out into the brisk winter air and start their walk back home.

—————

Matilda eagerly puts everything away in the kitchen and washes her hands. Jenny doesn’t even have time to stop her before she’s tying on her apron and looking at her excitedly. “What’s first?”

Jenny reads from the recipe card as she ties on her own apron. “Soaking the currants, raisins, and sultanas in the brandy, lemon juice, and orange juice.”

Matilda checks for the proper quantities of everything and happily adds it to a large bowl. She looks at it curiously. “For how long?”

“Overnight,” Jenny replies.

“Oh.” “And the pudding also has to be steamed for eight hours and then sit for two to three weeks.”

“Oh.”

“Sounds like we’ll have some tasty New Year’s pudding instead,” Jenny says with a chuckle, covering the bowl with some plastic wrap and resting it on a shelf for everything to soak in peace.

Matilda looks dejectedly up at it from her spot on the ground. Jenny smiles sadly.

“Should we make some cookies instead?”

Matilda beams at her and nods eagerly. Jenny keeps everything they need for that on hand anyway, so they waste no time whipping up a batch of snickerdoodles and getting absolutely covered in flour and sugar.

Matilda is delighted by rolling the dough into balls and rolling them in cinnamon sugar, and making sure they’re exactly the right distance apart on the tray before they go into the oven. Jenny is delighted just watching her.

The pudding will taste delicious once it’s ready, but for now, they’re perfectly content to cuddle by a cozy fire, read a long book, and snack on their delicious cookies.

my hair colorist didn't have any long openings before the 19th of October (when I leave to go see dan and phil) but she has one that's just enough time to dye my whole head. so we have to do the bleach part at home.

maybe one day I'll release the "vince, nikki, and mick on their knees infront of tommy salivating over his dick" drawing into the wild...

Man something I have not stopped thinking about is how part of why Midst podcast is so mind bogglingly good to me is because of how Third Person makes it. The whole thing is basically them just making up a story in beats and arcs ahead of time, and then RPing individual scenes.

They thought about what kinds of narratives sounded compelling, what ideas they wanted to see in the world and/or story, and how they wanted the story to unfold… but they didn't write scripts. Instead, they rolled up with maybe like an index card of story beats and scene summaries and then started recording [tangent: they shared the outline of the first episode and it's hilarious it's like 5 bullet points very cool stuff].

WHICH MEANS that all the dialogue is improved which makes me go [cartoon foghorn mallet-bonking cockle-doodle-doo] because some of the dialogue is [cartoon cymbals crashing cat yowl stock sounds of a crowd cheering]! Like I don't know how else to say this but the words that they are saying makes me feel like my brain is getting vaporized.

Filming has commenced in Leeds and Belgium on the six-parter from Professor T producer Eagle Eye Drama, which follows Tomlinson’s Evie and Pete (Harry Potter star Alfred Enoch), who move into an upscale neighborhood and find themselves in a world of curtain twitching and status anxiety. They find friendship in the shape of the couple next door, alpha traffic cop Danny (Heughan) and his wife, glamorous yoga instructor Becka (Jessica De Gouw), but after Danny and Evie share a passionate night together, there is trouble ahead.

The U.S. streamer and UK network, who never have co-produced together, described The Couple Next Door as a “psychological drama, exploring the stultifying claustrophobia of suburbia and the fallout of chasing your darkest desires.”

Tomlinson is best known for playing Demelza Poldark opposite Aidan Turner across five seasons of hit BBC drama Poldark. Other credits include Stephen Merchant comedy-drama The Outlaws and Netflix’s upcoming adaptation of David Nicholls’ One Day.

Scottish actor Heughan is gearing up for a seventh season of Starz hit Outlander, in which he plays Jamie Fraser, while he is also starring in Priyanka Chopra Jonas rom-com Love Again with Celine Dion – set for May release. He generated headlines recently when his memoir revealed how a brutal rape scene in Outlander Season 1 had impacted him negatively.

Marcella writer David Allison is penning The Couple Next Door, Professor T‘s Dries Vos is directing, and EPs are Jo McGrath, Walter Iuzzolino and Alison Kee.

The thriller is based on Dutch series New Neighbours and feeds into Eagle Eye’s strategy of turning European hits into shows for the major English-language markets, following Channel 4’s Suspect, which is based on a Danish series, and ITV’s Professor T, which is based on a show from Belgium.

The show was commissioned by Channel 4’s Caroline Hollick and Rebecca Holdsworth. EVP Programming Karen Bailey is overseeing The Couple Next Door for Starz, and it will be distributed by Beta Film.
