the other day i was thinking about olaf being described as tall in the books, and then i paused to consider, was he "much taller than average", or just "seemed tall from a child's perspective"? after all, olaf's age, according to DH, is "however old children think old people are". so when he was described as tall, could that just be that he looked tall to the three kids.

so i thought, were other people described as tall? off the top of my head the one thing i recall is, jacques was described as " not as tall as olaf" and "not as thin as olaf", and possibly the only adult character whose height is directly compared to olaf's iirc

for comparison's sake, i went back to check if other adults were described as tall as well. olaf and each of his disguises were repeatedly described as tall. within his troupe. the bald man has been described as tall, and fernald, while in disguise, has also been described as tall. charles and sir were both described as tall at some point. so were georgina, esme, jerome. and some more.

esme, like olaf and fernald, has also been described as tall when in disguise and using a fake name. she's also been described as slender.

denouements are also tall, and more than once described as "tall and skinny, with legs and arms sticking out at odd angles"

side note: this has nothing to do with height but: georgina is described to have blond hair. this is interesting because in the books it wasn't that often that a character's hair color is specified. aside from georgina, olivia is described to have blonde hair - "with a flick of her wrist, she unraveled the turban, and her long, blond hair fell down around her tearstained face" (she, on the other hand, was not described as tall)

He wasn’t as tall as Count Olaf, and he wasn’t quite as thin, and there wasn’t dirt under his fingernails, or a nasty and greedy look in his eyes. (tvv)

colette:

a tall skinny woman with curly hair squinting down at them, and in the third was a man with a very wrinkled face who was still asleep. (tcc)

denouement:

the children felt a shadow over them, and looked up to see a tall, skinny figure standing over them. In the darkness the children could not see any of his features, only the glowing tip of a skinny cigarette in his mouth. (tpp)

sir:

The door of the sauna swung open, and Klaus saw a tall, dim figure step into the steam. (tpp)

jelle shippers have to have such a big imagination considering they interacted a total of maybe like 4 times but thats light work for me cause i was a DIEHARD eswell shipper for going on 2 years.. they never even met

*While it's unknown if Georgina has any connection to VFD in the book continuity, she is included in this poll on account of her association with Olaf + me headcanoning her as the oldest and I'm curious to see who thinks the same as I do (I didn't vote in poll because I don't want my vote to mess with the numbers).

^While it's unknown which generation Dashiell is apart due to his young age [of assume early 20s], he is included in this poll because of said young age isn't clear enough to properly lump him into a generation (unlike Fernald, who is lump with the SBG).

[unfortunatetheorist]

What were the earliest the Baudelaires could've died, once ASOUE began?

Part 2: Klaus Baudelaire

Hmm.

This is a toughie.

There is a chance that Klaus could've died as a result of neglect from Olaf's slap in TBB...

...but a very slim chance. So slim that I won't count it.

TRR: Olaf chased all 3 Baudelaires with that massive knife of his - but he very heavily implied that the knife was meant for Sunny.

So again, unlikely.

The closest I think, is during TMM: Klaus is likeliest to have died following Dr Orwell's orders, under hypnosis.

Georgina Orwell actually does use the cane for chronic leg pain sorry I don't make the rules

[asoue-blog]

For a moment I thought the actress who played Dr. Orwell (Catherine O'hara) was the same actress who played Laura Roslin/Madeline Usher (Mary Mcdonnell).

Hey do u have any trans hcs for asoue?🏳️‍⚧️

this is barely a headcanon because she actually did have a bar mitzvah but ORWELL DR ORWELL GEORGINA ORWELL IS A TRANS WOMAN IN MY HEAD !!!!! i have this headcanon that her and Olaf both got into drag when they were younger and Georgina realised she was a trans woman and Olaf realised he liked playing dress up

besides that i think violet and quigley are trans bc i saw a funny post once that was like (paraphrasing) “when violet and quigley were on that waterfall they didn’t kiss they actually took their hrt”. also perhaps fernald just because olaf was kind of housewife-ifying him and that’s a very transmasc experience and also because i like him

[milf-lover42]

I've been thinking about Georgina Orwell an alarming amount this past week but I think I've exhausted all the good fan content out there 💔, tumblr posts, fanfics, hell even whatever pinterest gave me has run dry. I'm sad, I'm contentless, and I'm shamefully in love with Georgina Orwell.

That was longer than I thought itd be but basically the point is that if you have any advice for where to look next then I will take it, and if not then I am humbly asking you for any headcanons or anything you have 🙏

THANK YOUUU SORRY THIS WAS SO LONG!! YOU HAVE WONDERFUL TASTE IN WOMEN!!!

Dear anon I am so so unbelievably sorry for the time it has taken to get to you. I, an Esmé kinner, and my partner, a Georgina kinner, think about this ask every day and have been dying to answer you. Life has just been all over the place.

I would say that these headcanons are just that, and if you disagree then that’s fine, but truthfully I think of what we have come up with over the years as the real and actual truth and canon of the series. With that in mind! Here you go, I hope you enjoy!

Lore headcanons

First and foremost!

No matter the version, book, show, or continuation of the movie that never happened… Georgina survived her “death” at the Mill. In show canon, obviously there’s just an escape chute in the furnace, easy peasy, everyone has said this.

In book canon… yeah okay sure she tripped and was sawed in half at the mill. However, that woman has surely seen an Alice Cooper concert and knows how to fake a gory death live. She probably taught him how to do it to be honest.

So. She lives through Miserable Mill no matter the version. That woman is unkillable.

Georgina’s family is Old VFD. Like the Orwells were founding members type shit. Maybe it was her parents, maybe her grandparents or further, but either way, she was raised knowing everything. She was one of few members capable of learning about VFD and its inner workings from her own family - long before they died. She is the last keeper of every secret. She knows more things about the history of the organization than most of the sugarbowl gen can even begin to piece together. If VFD had nuclear weapons, Georgina Orwell would be the only one left who knew the codes, and that includes the Sinister Duo. Because of this, she’s very disconnected from the other members that we know of because they just don’t know about the truly dark information that VFD has kept secret from itself. She is technically still VFD, and in her earlier life was a dedicated member in some capacity, but she has no strong allegiance to it aside from her secret keeping (though that is more familial allegiance) when the SBG undergoes their schism.

Characteristic headcanons

BOTH of her knees are bad, that’s why she carries a cane. She doesn’t always need it (see: how often she simply holds it instead of actually placing it on the ground in the show), the pain flares up at different intervals and usually only in one leg at a time, but she always carries one A) because it is her sword and B) because that way no one can ever tell if it’s a good or bad day for her as far as knee pain goes.

She takes her coffee with no creamer, but does use sugar. It just varies in quantity per day. NEVER creamer or milk. Also is totally someone that’s a “don’t talk to me before my morning coffee” person. She doesn’t ever say this, she doesn’t have a nonsense mug that says it. However, if you try to speak to her before her coffee she will simply ignore you. She doesn’t get mad or glare or anything. She just… does not care until she’s had coffee. So it’s best to just wait because you won’t get anything out of her until then.

Tea she takes plain, nothing in it, no milk, no sugar, no lemon, nothing. Just. Tea. She isn’t a tea snob by any means, she will drink any tea she is given. If it’s bad tea she’ll just think that it wasn’t great, could be improved, but will take NO steps to improve it herself. She doesn’t even look at what type she is buying and she has no favorites. She likes tea enough to buy and make it but she literally does not care enough to select one. She just picks one at random every single time. She has had some truly horrible teas in her time without complaining or changing her habits once.

If you ask her what matcha is she will have NO idea what the fuck you are talking about.

Thank you so much for the ask, I love talking about my wife. I have so many more headcanons but pretty much all of them revolve around the idea that she and Esmé are together pre and post series (I am writing a fic slowly but surely to better explain this dynamic) and that they adopt Carmelita after the hotel. In the case that you are not an Eswell shipper I am keeping them to myself for the time being, but should you want that specific Georgina content I am more than happy to oblige! Just shoot me another ask and I will begin to compile it for you.

[afterthegreatunknown]

@unfortunatetheorist to your question for the 'ask blog' ask game:

Why did the Netflix series decide to swap Esmé and Georgina's hair colours from the book canon (and what, if any, is the significance behind this decision)?

Personally, I think they went for acting abilities over appearances for the roles; no real significance to it. But to play into the argument of that there is logic to the hair color swap:

Madame Lulu said that Esme is not a real blonde, which could mean Esme in-universe has natural dark hair (I thought it feels of a jab/insult than legit claim, but...)

Regarding Georgina, IIRC Klaus after he said his dad didn't trust optimists or optometrists, Georgina goes into a little 'I wonder' talk about the person that is clearly about herself, and mentions plastic surgery to assume a new identity. It's possible Georgina post plastic surgery she either dyed her natural blonde hair as part of her new identity, or she was a bottle blonde who stopped dying her hair and went back to her natural dark hair color.

Regarding your question for the ask game itself...

Netflix!Esme:

"Am I a bottled blonde? Darling, I swear to you that this is my natural hair color. If I were ever to dye my hair a different color, know that I would do so when it's in. And currently, a dye-job is out."

"It's a shame that some people choose to ignore it."

Netflix!Georgina:

"You think that I-oh, that's the funniest thing I ever heard!"

"I assure you that I don't dye my hair, just like how I don't hypnotize anyone to get the best dates possible for balls and parties."
