dragonslayingbeekeeper hat auf deinen Eintrag geantwortet: I want every Morseverse fan to know that Lewis was...

yes!! this! �� i recently bought the inspector morse dvds to finally see what all the fuss is about haha. i would’ve loved to watch it with my mum but since there’s no dubbed version and not even subtitles… �� which is really strange if you think about how successful lewis was and is, i mean there are still reruns almost every week on some channel. you would’ve thought they’d take advantage of that success to translate and show morse as well. ��

I know. Same with Austrian TV. No idea why they wouldn’t pick it up. 

My mother and I compromised - we watched it with English subtitles and when she wouldn’t understand something, she’d throw me a look XD. And boy do I know that feeling of just checking out Morse to see why Lewis was so hung up on the guy. They’re ADORABLE right?!

for the headcanon meme: james hathaway & ★ ,☆,▼,∇ (with or without robbie, whichever you prefer) 🙂

ooh so many, thank you!

★ - sad headcanon: sometime after robbie and laura leave for australia, james’s dad gets worse and passes away. He loses contact with Nell (again) but he doesn’t tell Robbie and Laura because they seem so happy visiting her relatives. Obviously he’d hoped that by getting back in contact with his family things might be different, but Nell has her own life and without their parents they drift apart again, leaving James to remain reclusive and to dive too much into his work.

☆ - happy headcanon: One day, sometime in the future, maybe at a wedding, as he watches his best friends dancing and being happy, James thinks maybe love isn’t total rubbish after all. Someone else who doesn’t think love is rubbish either is the dashing waiter who’s been eyeing him all night, stuffing people with canopes in a desperate attempt to move his way to the same side of the room and catch our equine nine’s eye. Since James is not a joiner of things, he’s all ready and set to spend the function on his own, until the waiter accidently spills said canopes on him. Blushes ensue. Their first date is somewhere quiet with absolutely no canopes or cheesy wedding music.

▼ - childhood headcanon: “James the just we used to call you.” We know he grew up in that big house, where of course James would think it was a castle. But maybe the rich kids made sure he never got to play the prince, always reminding him where he came from. But Will, his childhood friend, always let him be whoever he wanted because he was kind, and gentle, and he reminded James to be all those things too. (this is also sad considering oh my god why am i doing this) 

∇ -. old age/aging headcanon: He basically turns into Morse 2.0. But mostly he gets a cat (or rather, the cat adopts him) and despite his fears of suffering the same illness as his father, james remains sharp and quick all his life. Never stops quoting bloody Thomas Aquinas.

#3, 5, 11, and 19, please 🦄

Thanks! 3) Favorite musical artist / group you started listening to this year?I honestly didn’t listen to many new artists this year but I did start listening to Sondre Lerche and his music kind of became my soundtrack for my semester in Norway. I went to see him live in November as well. 

5) TV show of the year?

I binged so many shows these past few weeks because it was too cold to go outside and I think my favourites were “Brooklyn 99″ and “Timeless”. “Alias Grace” was also really, really good. (I also watched all episodes of “Buzzfeed Unsolved” but that’s not a TV show. Still…) 11) Something you want to do again next year?

I want to go to a lot more shows than I did this year and I want to travel again. My friend and I really want to go back to Brighton again and I hope that’s going to happen. Other than that I’m saving up for a weekend trip to Paris and maaaybeee Prague again if I can afford it.  19) What’re you excited about for next year?I’m going to learn to play the mandolin and I’m proper excited. I play the guitar so I should be able to learn quickly and I’ve already fallen in love with a shiny black bluegrass mandolin that I’ll buy with my Christmas money in January. I used to write music and I wanna get into that again and playing two instruments instead of just guitar will probably help with that. I’m also going to be finally done with uni this summer and I’m excited for that as well but also a bit scared. End of the Year Asks

space asks woohoo: constellation, cassiopeia, and meteor, please! 😊

woohoo ♥

constellation: have you ever read a book that is worse than the movie?what an interesting thought experiment(!) i am a graduate of film theory so i have really convoluted opinions about adaptation and cross-media comparative theory…tbh i hate it, i really don’t film literature and cinema are comparable in nearly any way, and i never have :’(

cassiopeia: what do you like most about yourself?i like my sense of humour (irl) and how easily i can keep a room or a conversation from becoming awkward…i assume that an extrovert thing, and i’m quite glad for it 😁

meteor: do you have a favorite historical figure?my boy…

9, 17, 25, and 28 please :)

hey hey!!

9)   a song that reminds you of yourself

essays and university and life is breaking me. good thing john k samson is relatable as ever

17)  a song with great lyrics

there are many, many songs i can list here, but because it’s great and because i’ve loved the ‘laid back to panic attacks’ line since i first heard it, have you heard bury me in the pantheon by ben marwood yet? it came out today, and the album is out on the seventh of april and i cannot WAIT

25)  a song from before you were born

my 88 year old, saaf landan former mobster type grandad has recently got back into completing the gaps in his jazz collection, and he told me he wanted a specific vinyl, but he couldn’t remember the name or the cover, only that it included ben webster and coleman hawkins (but it’s not 'encounters’.) i’m not really getting anywhere finding the jazz album with those helpful clues but i do love body and soul. (1939!)

28)  a song you want to see live

i imagine seeing stan roger’s son play northwest passage live is something akin to a religious experience, judging by this video

thank u!!!

Tag game, shipping edition

tagged by @a-candle-for-sherlock.  ❤️❤️

First ship you ever read fic for: probably Frodo/Sam. (Other popular ships in my dim-and-distant were Zoe/Wash/Mal, Xena/Gabrielle, Hawkeye/BJ, and every combination of the residents of Moya, especially John/D’Argo.)

First ship you ever wrote fic for: also Frodo/Sam, but that particular story is lost to the mists of time. My first extant fic is Gimli/Legolas, and I’d rather count that anyway.

Ship you write the most now: I almost never write anything at all now, so there’s no “most”, but I’m trying to write Lewis/Hathaway atm, so that.

Ship you read the most now: Lewis/Hathaway. Holmes/Watson second.

Newest ship: Sal/Tip (Jam and Jerusalem/Clatterford)

Rare ship you wanna read more of: Dorothea Frazil/Max DeBryn (Endeavour)

Your taboo ship: Is this the same as a notp? As in “You do you but I have zero interest”? (Or as we used to call it back in my Usenet days: YKINMK?) Mystrade. Also Bagginshield.

They never met in canon ship: I don’t think I have one.

Your unexpected ship: Phryne/Jack. I mean, I usually ship people because it’s not canon, but those two... *fans self*

The ship you always forget to give love to: Rat/Mole (Wind in the Willows bookverse) and Momoko/Ichigo (Shimotsuma Monogatari). Got any recs for these? Toss ‘em my way.

Ship your OC with a canon character: Uh… that’s the entirety of Aulë’s Gift. Assuming you count Freor as an OC.  Freor/Legolas.

A ship you’re embarrassed to ship: Jack Harkness/anybody. It’s just too easy, you know? But… Jack!

Your most romantic ship: That I read: Lewis/Hathaway. That I’ve written: Gimli/Legolas.

Your sexiest ship: see above

Your most tragic ship: Henry/Radar

I’ve been having so much fun reading others’ answers; I’d love it if you wanted to play, too! Including @ancientreader @greenapricot @thetimemoves @klinger @weeguttersnipe @maraschino-merry @glenmoresparks @flootzavut @roselightfairy @sarahthecoat @dragonslayingbeekeeper and everyone else who wants to play. Please tag me if you do!

Top 3 shows: endeavour, lewis, and oh god i don’t know what the third would be. the office? the thick of it? star trek: voyager? parks and rec? does cabin pressure count as a show?

#19 and 22, please!

19. What’re you excited about for next year? I’m excited about not being in Germany for at least 3 months which is always good, but also (I’m gonna regret saying this) I’m kiiiinda looking forward to when my semester starts in April because as much cooler as studying abroad is, I kinda miss the feeling of being involved at my home university

22. Favorite place you visited this year? Obviously Iceland but naming my favorite place IN Iceland is insanely hard. I can only narrow it down to Reynisfjara, Jökulsárlon or the Highlands…

[gaietygirl]

hi there darling, please do K A T I for the book questions thingy ❤️

Aw, this is really sweet!

K) Favourite male writer?

Let’s pretend you people don’t already know who it is… Oscar Wilde, and he probably will be forever. But I do like some modern male writers as well. I adore Christoph Marzi for example, “Memory” is one of my favourite Young Adult books. A) What’s the first book you see with a red spine?

It’s the German edition of Mackenzi Lee’s “The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue”! You’re lucky it’s red because it is literally one of only three print books I brought to Norway with me and it’s right in front of me on my desk right now.T) Used or new?

I’ve never really cared. I love new books because they’re nice and shiny but I buy a lot of used books as well, I like how they have a history already. 

I) Do you have a favourite poet?

I’m super basic when it comes to poetry! Wilde of course, the Romantics (especially Shelley), Emily Dickinson and Dylan Thomas… the usual stuff people who aren’t that into poetry like. I also like a lot of the beat poetry stuff. For the Books And You Meme
