#guy fawkes night 2024

[artisofthandy]

It’s Guy Fawkes Day/ Guy Fawkes Night/Bonfire Night 2024! A day to commemorate and celebrate the failed gunpowder assassination attempt of King James I back in the 17th century! For some context in 1605, a fella by the name of Guy Fawkes decided to plan a gunpowder assassination along with his gang by blowing up the House of Parliament with King James inside, this was all due to political and religious matters (remember back then, the church was massively Protestant and that being part of a different religion was incredibly illegal if they find out and Guy Fawkes and his gang were mostly Catholic.) They believe should they succeed in killing James, they get a new sympathetic ruler. But the plan failed spectacularly, because there was someone who notified the king ahead of time and not only was the whole gang, Guy Fawkes included was caught they were executed for treason and conspiracy. And now every year the British holiday on November 5th was now Guy Fawkes Night and the rest is history. It’s celebrated every year to commemorate the foiled attempt!

Happy Guy Fawkes Night 2024 everyone! Celebrate with bonfires, fireworks, sparklers, firecrackers and other pyrotechnics!

[harrowedworld]

Remember, remember, the 5th of November, gunpowder, treason, and plot.

I see no reason why gunpowder treason should ever be forgot.

Happy November 5th!!

This year, the UK election is on the 4th of July and the American election is on Guy Fawkes day.

[bisexualseraphim]

As I said to my American mutuals: today my country is setting off fireworks and making bonfires in celebration of a man who tried to blow up the government 360 years ago. And today, Americans will be making the very difficult and very close decision to choose whether they want their government to be run by either the human embodiment of Everyone Gets A Free Houseplant, or Eternal Death By Diarrhoea.

We’ll all be watching and waiting on the other side of the pond. Good luck, Yanks. Go out and vote.

[semyas-ii]

It's the 5th of November, you all know what that means...

It's my 30th birthday! Which famously falls on the same day as, you guessed it, BONFIRE NIGHT!! So for my birthday this year I demand you all go out and build giant bonfires and burn me in effigy! And put on fabulous fireworks displays! And, of course, GLOW STICKS GALORE! All of the glow sticks! For everyone!

And don't forget to sing the song!

Huzzah!!!

In-Progress Chaptered (10) Masterlist

part one, part two, part three, part four, part five, part six, part seven, part eight, part nine

In progress as of December 17, 2024

Ad Infinitum (ao3) - vanillascentedblood

Summary: Dan loves law, but he hates it too - probably a little more than the others. Struggling through an Oxford Law degree, he meets Phil, an English student dipping his toe into the whirlwind world of corporate law.

Dan’s in over his head, and Phil’s out of his depth. Dan’s running out of time, while Phil’s just starting his journey. Dan’s too scared to make a friend he might lose, and Phil’s desperate to unravel the enigma of the boy he met at a glittering soirée.

It’s competitive, it’s brutal, and the pressure is relentless. But Phil’s optimism might be the support Dan needs as he feels his future slipping through his fingers - until Dan starts to wonder if keeping Phil close is too dangerous in a world where even friends are competitors.

Amidst stolen glances at formal dinners and late-night talks in the library, the boys can feel the spark. Between the cutthroat competition for success and the feelings neither of them can ignore, Dan and Phil must decide what they’re willing to risk: their futures or each other. Maybe they’ll make it out together - or maybe their story will stay on Oxford’s hallowed streets, ad infinitum…

and a tiny horse in a christmas tree (ao3) - phegetarian

Summary: Daniel Howell is living a work-centric life in the city. What happens when he reluctantly agrees to go back to his hometown for Christmas and meets a new resident?

Between Ballads and Bouquets (ao3) - proudsnackeezowner

Summary: When all the guests had arrived and the doors closed, Phil scanned the room again, until finally his eyes found it. The piano rolled out to the right of the altar, and in front of it sat Daniel Howell, flipping through his sheet music.

or

They work for weddings, Dan as a pianist and Phil as a florist.

But I’m a Christian Puppet Troope Leader (ao3) - MostfunIveeverhad

Summary: Dan and Phil, from different cities in England, get sent by their concerned families to a very interesting gay conversion camp… Plus: they clearly don’t belong there. Right?

Coffee Break (ao3) - Scuddleduck

Summary: "I didn’t catch your name.”

“Phil. I’m over in graphic design,” Phil points over his shoulder to the other side of the complex office corridors.

Dan extends his empty hand. “Nice to meet you, Phil in graphic design.” Phil’s hand is soft and warm and slots into Dan’s in a way that makes the hair on the back of his neck stand on end.

“You, too, Dan in legal.”

***

a BBC co-workers to lovers that is just an excuse for me to write Phil with tattoos and blushy, smitten Dan. Enjoy!

lie now, apologize later (ao3) - regalwhore

Summary: What happens when Dan, a holiday loner, and Phil, an eternal optimist with a meddling family, agree to fake-date their way through a year’s worth of holiday events?

What happens when Dan’s sarcastic quips and Phil’s awkward charm make them the accidental hit of every party, from Valentine’s Day to Guy Fawkes Night?

What happens when pretending to hold hands starts feeling suspiciously natural, and family outings spark comments like: “When is the wedding?”

What happens when their ”no romance" clause becomes as flimsy as Dan's excuse for avoiding a haunted house, and "no expectations" morphs into secretly wondering if Phil’s laugh is Dan’s favorite sound?

What happens when they realize this convenient arrangement might just be the best thing that’s ever happened to them—and maybe, just maybe, they’re not faking it anymore?

Because when Dan and Phil step into this holiday deal, there’s only one guarantee: every holiday is about to get way more complicated… and a lot more fun.

OR!!! The "Holidate" fan fic no one asked for.

making out while the world collapses! (ao3) - alittlestarsick

Summary: Cheers errupted through the crowd as the clack of heels sounded through the aisle between seats to the beat of the song. Phil was too nervous to turn around. soon enough the clack of the heels was right next to him and suddenly he felt long nails trailing over his shoulders and through his hair, he turned to the side and made eye contact with the drag queen, their faces mere inches away from each other. It was her. The same drag queen from those five years ago.

Sister Daniel.

or....the one where closeted famous pop star Phil Lester has a run in with drag queen Sister Daniel and they have a much deeper connection than expected, and see just how long they can keep their newfound affair a secret.

Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree (ao3) - sleepyslag (galacticneighbor)

Summary: Five years ago, Dan Howell broke his best friend's heart to pursue a music career.

Five years ago, Phil Lester left Manchester to start over in the US.

Now, weeks before Christmas and in the middle of Dan's latest tour, the two of them meet again when Dan winds up stranded in a small town in Pennsylvania. With Dan's tour postponed until after the holidays and Phil's community center at risk of shutting down, can the two exes come together to save it, or will the demands of Dan's career tear them apart again?

the past ain’t through with you (ao3) - citylights10

Summary: ‘Phil Lester did not expect a knock on his door at 1am on a Thursday in the middle of November, and he certainly did not expect it to be his ex-boyfriend, Dan Howell.’

OR

Dan and Phil split up a long time ago. Phil is very surprised when one evening, Dan shows up on his doorstep uninvited.

Undercover (ao3) - phansauce97

Summary: After recovering from tragedy, Phil does his best to get back on his feet. He still had his mom, his brother, his friends, and a good future to look forward to. So, continuing to put one foot in front of the other, he pushes on.

Things turn upside down though when a new student arrives at school one day; tall, mysterious, and wearing all black.

"Dan Howell," or Agent Ten, as he's known, is a master assassin and secret agent. His mission? Go undercover to befriend, study, and ultimately - kill Phil Lester.

Yet despite his best efforts, this mission ends up being much more challenging than Dan would have previously expected, especially when he begins to fall hopelessly in love with his target.

you’re poison to me (ao3) - danniepanic

Summary: Dan and Phil hate each other, can’t stand each other. Dan makes fun of everyone and bullies people but Phil stops him everytime. Phil is openly gay and Dan bullies him for it. these two are like water and fire. but sometimes if you bring them together it steams. will they one day find out why awkward things happen between them?

🔥 Bonfire Night, a date specific to the United Kingdom, remembers The Gunpowder Plot of 1605 when Catholic conspirators, of which Guido Fawkes was a member of the collective of 13, tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament in order to kill King James I (The Jacobean Era). The goal for this plot was to aid in restoring a Catholic Monarch to the Throne of England.

🔥 After the 16th Century religious Reformations, particularly the 1536 English Reformation under Henry VIII breaking away from the Roman Catholic Church which increased the authority of the Church of England under Protestant ideals. These beliefs were particularly heavily enforced during the reign of Henry VIII's son, Edward VI, though the severity of these later reformations are generally often incorrectly attributed to his father's Henrician Reformation.

🔥 The Tudor reign and Jacobean rule was difficult for Catholics as persecution was rife, though this increased further after the failed plot. Robert Catesby, the man in charge of organising the Gunpowder Plot wanted to replace the Protestant King James I with a Catholic Monarch.

🔥 Despite popular belief, Guy Fawkes was not the leader, he was the Member found first as his job was to set off the fuse for the 36 barrels in the cellar beneath the Houses of Parliament.

🔥 Originally the bonfires were to celebrate the foiled attempt, however, over the centuries it is often commonplace for people to now celebrate the Plotters.

just realised that the 2024 UK vote this year was on the 4th of July (Independence Day in the US) and the US vote this year was on the 5th of November (Guy Fawkes/Fireworks Night in the UK (it’s a lot bigger of a deal than either of its names imply I promise)) and idk it’s just a bit funny to me

[weeping-angel-13]

05.11.2024 – „Guy Fawks Day“

Der 5. November - ein Tag, der die britische Geschichte für immer veränderte. In der kühlen #Herbstluft Englands flackern Lagerfeuer und bunte #Feuerwerkskörper erhellen den Nachthimmel. Es ist Guy Fawkes Night, auch bekannt als Bonfire Night, ein Fest, das tief in der britischen Kultur verwurzelt ist.

Die Verschwörung, die #England erschütterte: Im Jahr 1605 plante eine Gruppe katholischer Verschwörer unter der Führung von #GuyFawkes einen kühnen Anschlag. Ihr Ziel: Das protestantische #Parlament und König James I. in die Luft zu sprengen. 36 Fässer #Schießpulver wurden heimlich in den Keller des Parlamentsgebäudes geschmuggelt.

Doch das #Schicksal hatte andere Pläne. Am Morgen des 5. November wurde Guy Fawkes auf frischer Tat ertappt, als er die explosive Fracht bewachte.

Von Verrat zu Tradition: Die Nachricht von der vereitelten #Verschwörung verbreitete sich wie ein Lauffeuer durch London. König James I., erleichtert über seine Rettung, erlaubte dem Volk, #Freudenfeuer zu entzünden. Was als spontaner Ausdruck der Erleichterung begann, entwickelte sich im Laufe der Jahrhunderte zu einer fest verankerten Tradition.

Ein Fest der #Lichter und des Gedenkens: Heute ist der Guy Fawkes Day ein farbenfrohes Spektakel. In den Straßen Englands ziehen Fackelumzüge durch die Nacht, begleitet vom Knistern der Lagerfeuer und dem Zischen der Raketen.

Kinder basteln "Guys" - Strohpuppen, die Guy Fawkes darstellen und traditionell auf den Scheiterhaufen geworfen werden.

Wandel der Bedeutung: Interessanterweise hat sich die Wahrnehmung von Guy Fawkes im Laufe der Zeit gewandelt. Von einem verurteilten #Hochverräter wurde er für manche zu einem Symbol des Widerstands gegen Tyrannei.

Seine ikonische Maske, bekannt aus "V for Vendetta", ist heute ein weltweit erkanntes Symbol für Anonymität und Aufstand.

Er ist ein Tag, an dem die #Vergangenheit in den flackernden #Flammen der Gegenwart tanzt und uns mahnt, nie zu vergessen: "Remember, remember, the fifth of November."
