#harold they're getting married

Ships? But Sir, They're Trains!

It's Valentine's Day, and to celebrate, I thought I'd break my usual streak of not shipping the talking trains together and share the pairings that I like the best! But only of the original 11, and a few other RWS-related friends (and maybe a bonus or two from the TVS).

Also known as: local weirdo decides trains can kiss, but only on Valentine's Day.

Let's get into the ships... er... trains.

Thomas:

Almost chronically single. I'm sorry Thomas, but you're not very good at the dating thing. Maybe Hank if I swallowed my pride and went to watch Season 12 - just because Hank's calm and friendly personality would naturally balance out Thomas. But also because they are the epitome of 'gentle giant' and 'tank engine terror'. Also, Thomas blushes in this episode:

(Sorry for the Season 12 image, but it's the only Season Hank was in!)

Edward:

This engine has options! Or more to the point - this engine has suitors. Not all make sense to the poor engine - but that's the pain of being the one everyone looks up to. I would put him with BoCo, but I must admit I had a phase where I read EdwardxJames fanfics. So... nostalgia wins (that and Edward needs someone with a fiery personality to boost his confidence sometimes, and James needs a cooler head all the time).

(Look at the smile on James' face! He's ecstatic to see his engine.)

Henry:

Bear. The answer is Bear. I'm sorry, but that Hymek has it bad for Henry, and Henry fought for Bear to stay on Sodor. And after the early days when every engine fought, Henry has no interest in getting tangled up with them again, only this time romantically. Besides, the youthful energy and eagerness Bear has will only benefit Henry, who can be a bit of an old grump.

(Bear, I can't tell if you're looking into Henry's eyes or not...)

Gordon:

Hoo boy... Gordon, oh Gordon. What to do with you? Henry and James are taken, Edward and Thomas are more siblings than romantic interests - and engines 6 through 11 are just not close enough. But how about BoCo? (Yes, this is why I didn't pair him up with Edward). BoCo is calm and polite where Gordon is loud and brash - and Gordon does see BoCo as his saviour. It would probably be the plot of a b-list romantic movie, but I can see these two getting together, with Gordon being the jock and BoCo being the 'kid' of Edward.

(Look at that little smile Gordon has! This engine is smitten.)

James:

He's with Edward, thank you. More than that, he doesn't really fit well with the other RWS cast romance-wise. Thomas is something of a rival and friend, while he wants Gordon and Henry to acknowledge him and Percy is something of a little brother/annoyance to James. Edward and he have a lot to work out (mostly James groveling) but they got a lot of coding in the series from what I remember. Plus Edward saved him - so we've ticked the cliche box.

(Yes, this means Edward is the knight in shining armour. James is a diva anyway.)

Percy:

Has about as much luck as Thomas does, if we're honest. Young, childish Percy has no chance, while older, grumpier Percy is more interesting to consider. The Percy of Seasons 5 and 6 I could see bagging Harold. But then, we could also consider the absolute insanity of Percy and Diesel 10. Imagine the shock, imagine the story! (I'm a writer, let me dream about how I'd write this lot). Diesel 10 would be the delinquent who is soft for Percy and Percy only. It would also lead to an epic fight between the helicopter and the engine with a giant claw.

(Um, is Percy... blushing?! What are these faces?! I have questions.)

Toby:

Is married to Henrietta. They are old couple goals. Percy and Thomas are extremely jealous.

(Toby is grinning cause he knows his wife - that poor manager...)

Duck and Donald:

I considered Percy for Duck, but I feel like what Duck needs is an engine who can really bring out the playful side in Duck - the engine who helps him be more than just the railway he used to work for. That engine is Donald. When they ended up playing pranks on each other in Donald's Duck to the point where Duck stooped to putting a literal duck in Donald's tender knowing Donald would find it funny really says it all about these two.

(Look at him, so excited to play his little prank! His driver is wheezing!)

Douglas and Oliver:

These two practically have a kid in Toad already (or an advice-giving uncle. One of the two). Douglas saved Oliver, and that sort of thing has a lasting impact - especially because it's also the most likely relationship to actually happen. Both Douglas and Oliver are known for sticking it to authority, being a bit hot-headed and being led a bit more by spirit and the heart than by their heads. They have Toad for critical thinking. They live and work together too - and it would be hilarious to watch Duck blast his safety valve off when he finds out.

(Ah yes, let me just stare into your eyes for half an episode.)

Mavis and Daisy:

These two are disaster lesbians, and we love them for it. It's also the femme fatale (or as femme fatale as a diesel railcar can be) and the butch (she works in a quarry - this girl wears overalls) tropes - and they're disasters. Need I remind anyone that Daisy was the one who encouraged Mavis to ignore Toby? It would also be hilarious purely for how much Thomas and Percy would grumble about being single, while Daisy and Mavis rub their relationship in the pair's faces. Which would lead to that one memorable incident where Thomas tried to flirt with a very unamused and confused Bertie.

(Mavis, sweetie - don't listen to Daisy's advice. I know you're distracted but ple-- and she's gone.)

Annie and Clarabel:

Are wine aunts and siblings. And no, neither of them are interested in Thomas, so you can stop thinking that.

(These coaches are Thomas' wine aunts and best friends - and he loves them too.)

Bill and Ben:

Are children! Edward's children! That he has with BoCo (sort of) leading to the brilliant moments where Gordon has to 'babysit' them - which is mostly done with a lot of grimacing and begging BoCo to just hand this lot over to Edward and James - no seriously, please stop letting these two just randomly adopt you as their parent. They're evil, and they wanted to throw me in the sea, remember? No, I don't care that James doesn't like them, I don't like them! BoCo!

(He's petrified of them, but he wants to be nice for BoCo's sake...)

Emily:

Does not need a man, thank you. But she is entranced sometimes by Caitlin's streamlining (yes, I have seen some CGI - I am not a true purist, I am sorry Awdry). Then again, sometimes Emily likes Hiro - and then there was that one time where she was just so upset that Mavis wouldn't notice her. Emily doesn't need no man - but she's also not exactly got the best selection of potential candidates at her shed...

(She's got an amazing poker face. Caitlin however...)

So... that was a thing I did. Somewhere around Percy's entry, this gained a coherent plot in my mind - probably a High School AU? - and now I'm just thinking of Diesel 10 towering over Percy, blushing and trying to give him flowers (with his claw???) while Harold seethes. Clearly, being a single pringle has driven me insane.

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone, I hope you enjoyed this wild idea and if people want expansions on these ships (still trains) and why I like the idea of them, please go ahead and ask!

If people really like this, I will take on the Narrow Gauge engines.

UR HEADCANNONS ARE TO DIE FOR 💗 COULD U DO HEADCANNONS ON HOW AIZAWA,PRESENT MIC, IZUKU,BAKUGO,KIRISHIMA AND DENKI (U can do one of those characters or just pick a few from them! Up to u!) WOULD BE AS UR BF! THANK U ❤️❤️❤️

denki and kirishima boyfriend headcanons!! gn!reader

content warning: fluff, established relationship between reader and characters

a/n: when i got this note i was rly happe TwT thank you so muchhhh, it means so so much to me that someone likes the things i write <3 gives me so much power!! power to write more! so sry this one took long eheh. anyway i really hope you like this one!!

DENKI

he's my favorite boi!! 💖💖

you guys probably went from best friends to lovers!

the way he told you he liked you was by some really huge show XD

like he had sero and kirishima to be his wingmans to go to your dorm and they got fake rose petals and scattered them at your dorm doorframe

and you hear commotion outside your dorm like ("AAAAH IM FALLINGIMFALLINGHALP" "BRO THEY'RE GUNNA HEAR CHILL")

and you open the door and you see the trio all sprawled out on the floor and you hear like scattered whispering like "get into foRMATION"

(*ahem* "where's the script man" "bro i think i dropped it on the way here" "ya know what freaking screw it")

"I WOULD LIKE TO GO ON A DATE WITH YOU, LIKE ROMANTICALLY PLEASE"

onto established relationship!!

in general he's a really goofy bf he'll send you enough memes in about 10 minutes to be a mini fyp

so i don't know if it's a style choice or he needs them for vision and stuff, but in official art he'll wear glasses, so i think that when he's just chilling with you, he'll wear prescriptional glasses (ughhhh he looks rly handsome in them)

speaking of, his hero suit has these blue glasses, so sometimes, he'll put them on you just for fun

i think his ideal date choice would be going to a cute restaurant or going to a cinema 💗

your friends are his friends!!! you won't have to worry about him cheating on you or falling for one of your friends because he does pda with you around them XD

his love languages are (to give)! quality time, physical touch, and words of affirmation. he likes receiving words of affirmation, also acts of service 💗

KIRISHIMA

he is a lot like denki XD just different font you know?

he lovessss to admire you <3 he'll buy you lots of nice suits/dresses to wear on dates

before you go out anywhere on a date he'll kind of study himself in the mirror before asking you if he looks sharp (no pun intended)

SUCH A FRIGGING GENTLEMANN like husband material if you ask me

he'll open doors for you and hold your hand in a big crowd

he's actually insecure about a few things, and if you let him, he'll open up to you about them because he believes communication is key in a relationship (not that he'll ever pressure or force you to vent to him about stuff)

in general he won't really force you to do anything you don't feel up to

he lovesssss cuddling you, him being big spoon 💗

his natural hair color is black, meaning he dyes his hair, so he'd be good at it i'd think, so if you're just chilling together, he'll ask you if you want to dye your hair

you guys have a lot of inside jokes, like you could be hanging out in public and he'll randomly say something like "hey remember the hairbrush" "oh my gosh STAWP" "AHEHWHEHHWHEHE" people in public be lookin at you like you're crazy

he probably has a rock on his desk in his dorm that he named harold btw

his love languages are quality time and words of affirmation! he likes receiving words of affirmation too!

he plans on marrying you a few years after high school 😂

What Happens after The Bachelorette Challenge?

Learn what happened to all the contestants 25 years after the show ended:

First up for our main couple, Lira and Nathan. They lived together in a little apartment for a few years and married a year after the show aired. They moved to a two story house in a close residential neighborhood and had a daughter named Nadia, who looks so much like her father! Nadia is friends with the kids of all the other contestants and they created a club as kids to hang out in the treehouse behind their houses. Nadia is now a successful fashion designer in Ciudad Enamorada. Lira and Nathan actually had another kid after this photo was taken (yep Nathan was an elder and Lira wasn't far behind) a boy named Kurtis, who is now child. The day of Nadia's wedding Nathan dies of old age, leaving behind his wife and now toddler little boy. Lira and Kurtis still live in the same house along with Lira's younger sister Luna. (@bumblebeessims)

For our runner up Ian Farell he actually went back to Willow Creek and had a couple more failed relationships until the first cast reunion when he reencountered June Taye! They had an amazing night together and started officially dating not long after. They got married three years after the show and later adopted their daugther Brittni, who is Nadia's best friend. Brittni eventually found love with a hot business man she met in Cupid's Corner. After many years of marriage sadly Ian and June got a divorce not long after this picture was taken. (@bloomingkyras @invisiblequeen)

Our Third Place contestant was Chelsea Miller, she managed to become a mildly known actress after the show. For the first two years she still held a candle for Lira until she met Keiko (not pictured), a beautiful background actress in one of her films, and thought she had finally found someone who understands her. Chelsea and Keiko get married in small ceremony in the Del Sol Valley Hills. They eventually had twins Nataly (left) and Tiffany (right), but by the time the girls aged up to teens, Chelsea and Keiko's relationship had taken a deep dive, they got divorced and Keiko moved out. Nataly recently got married to Takao Mikishima and they just moved to a new place. Tiffany is engaged to Arianna Fink-Harper (who will meet soon) (@tipsy-clouds)

For our boy Michael Fink-Harper life moved along slowly for a while until he eventually meets Aoi Miyazaki, she's older than him and has a child from a previous relationship named Harold (far right) They get married pretty quick and have twins boy and girl named Arthur and Arianna. The twins also joined Nadia's club as kids, and when they become teenagers and the hormones are in the air, Arianna and Arthur both have a crush on Nadia. Arthur wins the race when he invites her to prom, and they start dating oficially not long after. As young adults all the children move together to Ciudad Enamorada where they share a residential rental. It is here that Arianna starts noticing Tiffany more and they start dating after club night out. Arthur and Nadia's wedding date is changed twice bc of the death of their parents (Nadia's dad and Arthur's mom), wedding pics will be posted later. They're now thinking of having babies soon. (@akitasimblr)

Sadly Cortez Cranberry could not be featured here today, he died of neighborhood stories complications, only two years after the end of the show (@riverofjazzsims)

The Birthday Wish - Beyond the Pale for This Sinner by u/Legal_Huckleberry_80

The Birthday Wish - Beyond the Pale for This Sinner Okay. I think I'm done. I have no idea what the thinking behind the RF's happy birthday wishes to Harold is about, but to me, it shows a lack of backbone. I can't get behind people who consistently let the runt of the family and the attack dog he married walk all over them without slapping back. Maybe they're better people than I am, though I doubt it. Perhaps the gap between regular people and aristocrats is too vast to understand. Whatever it is, I think I'm done. What are your thoughts about this birthday wish to the ginger muppet? post link: https://ift.tt/I8GJLea author: Legal_Huckleberry_80 submitted: September 15, 2024 at 08:39PM via SaintMeghanMarkle on Reddit disclaimer: all views + opinions expressed by the author of this post, as well as any comments and reblogs, are solely the author's own; they do not necessarily reflect the views of the administrator of this Tumblr blog.

[unpopularvivian]

My Ttte Designs (Toby):

Headcanons:

Shy, gentle, nervous but wise and extremely caring towards others. Is one of Sodor's oldest but finest engines.

Human age is 54 while his actual age is 121.

He and Henrietta are married for 30 years while he and Edward are married for 10 years.

Disrespect one of his loved ones, especially if it's Henrietta, and he'll sent you to your grave.

Has a super close bond with the humans of Sodor and sees them as this one, big, loving family.

Even though he's prone to panic in certain situations, he has the patience of a god and is very good at handling emotional problems. His compassion and empathy makes him very popular with engines and Sudrians.

Loves jazz, romantic music and electro swing.

Is the Harold Hutchins to Gordon's George Beard and they're best friends because I said so. He acts like the heart of the duo while Gordon acts like the brains. These two will do anything from becoming wingmen for each other to trying to figure how to use the internet.

He doesn't have too many people that he hates but if you manage to be one of those people; Then congrats! You're officially one of the worst people to ever live on earth!

Bisexual and transgender (Ftm). Has top surgery and his scars are kinda faded. Scars are double incision and are curved. (I swear, if ya'll are ever drawing him shirtless and you incorrectly draw his top surgery scars, I am going to break into your house and break all of your limbs-)

Street-stupid as fuck and doesn't understand modern society that well.

Has PTSD, depression and separation anxiety. Extremely fast-moving water, great heights and loud sounds all give him shivers down to his spine because they're all part of events that he used to be in. Sometimes, he feels disconnected to the rest of the world and doesn't have any motivation to do anything. And about his separation anxiety? Try separating Henrietta from him and he'll be missing her instantly.

Loves to bake and cook food. Is a god at it. (Unlike Edward-)

Has 4 adopted children: Mavis, Percy, Phillip and Pluto.

I like to imagine that he used to have a stupid long ahoge that he unfortunately lost during his younger years. It hasn't grown back ever since. RIP random ahoge, we'll miss you. 😞

"Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair-"

PRIVATE HE'S AFRAID OF COCKROACHES!!!!!

(USING SHE/HER AND THE NAME "TABITHA" FOR THE NEXT FEW HEADCANONS. TW: MENTIONS OF DEADNAMING, TRANSPHOBIA, HOMOPHOBIA AND DEATH)

When Tabitha was first built, she was devilish, tomboyish daredevil who took over the quaint little world that she lived in by storm. She had two older brothers who she bonded quickly. Tom, who was the middle child and was fun-loving and Leonard, who was the oldest and acted as the voice of reason and discipline.

In her old tramway that was located nearby on a pretty little coastline, Tabitha met two tramway coaches named Henrietta and Hannah. She got along quite well with Hannah due to their chaotic personalities but butted heads with Henrietta because of her more reserved demeanor. (What Tabitha doesn't know that she's going to get married to Henrietta someday hehehoho)

However, Roger, a very bratty and absolutely shit tram engine bullied the two all lot. (Ya'll probably who I'm talking about) And not only was he spoiled and jerkish, he was also extremely transphobic and homophobic towards Tabitha, often calling her many slurs and derogatory nicknames. But the haughty steam tram would soon meet his end when he was crushed to death. What the others didn't know that things would be way worse....

During a cheerful and calm day, Tabitha was working with her two brothers as usual along with Henrietta. Out of nowhere, a large boom filled the air with terror and doom as an disheveled old man, wearing shattered goggles, was driving a gigantic tank as cannons were blasting everywhere, destroying trucks and houses. Leonard immediately took his then-sister's hand and started sprinting towards the other direction with Tom and Henrietta following in hot pursuit.

Bullets sliced through the smoky air as the screams of dying people and engines filled the atmosphere with dread and hopelessness and just as the crazy old man was about to shoot Tabitha, Tom suddenly went in front of her, surprising the lunatic and causing him to miss and have the bullet hit the ground instead. But, the bullet ended up ricocheting a piece of shrapnel straight towards Tom's face and pierced straight through his eye, killing him instantly.

And went the young tram thought that the worse has been over, a shriek of pain echoed through the sky as Henrietta dragged Tabitha to a safe place. Turns out that Leonard had acid poured on his face by the old driver for refusing to let him kill Tabitha.

The next day was the funeral for Tom and Leonard, the sky was a cloudy grey as rain poured onto the ground like bricks hitting pavement. Nobody make a sound except for the anguished cries of Tabitha for she just lost the people that she loved the most. Ever since, the poor tram hasn't been the same.

(TOBY, IN HIS AWKWARD TRANSITONAL PHASE)

Started using he/him and the name "Tobias" that Leonard give to him. Shortened it to "Toby" because he didn't like being called by his full name.

Wore awkward brown suspenders, a white buttoned up shirt and had shiny black loafers. (Man, he was really wearing the loser fit wasn't he) Later got a fuzzy homemade oak-colored sweater made by Henrietta for him as a gift when he worked on his own little tramway.

Easily scared, very jumpy, frightened and extremely shy toward others. Only communicated in whispers. (Not too unlike to his wimpy CGI persona!)

Was pretty neutral on liking flowers but ended up loving one of them, roses, after Henrietta put one on his head during one of their dates.

You thought that Edward was his bisexual awakening? Ha! Edward was only his bisexual REAWAKENING. His actual first bisexual awakening was when he met a fellow blue lorry whose name was Alec. Unlike the rest of the lorries and trucks that were assholes, Alec was mild-mannered and polite and had a pleasant conversation with Toby, who the latter caught feelings for him. However, because homophobia was at a dangerously high stake during that time, Toby had extreme feelings of internalized homophobia and avoided Alec when ever he could. (Poor him, it looks that Toby couldn't catch a break)

Toby and Henrietta literally got married when Toby tried to propose her but failed horribly, only to find out that Henrietta was also going to propose to him as well.

His bond between his driver and firewoman started to grow since the two were a couple themselves and would give relationship advice to Toby whenever he had trouble with Henrietta.

[hey-hey-j]

happy Dog Man trailer release day everyone 🥳🎉

but anyway. We've made it to movie #2 on my list. The penultimate film in this marathon. And that movie is Shrek 2.

I went to the 20th anniversary screening back in May and it was like falling in love all over again. It's emotional, ya know, experiencing this movie that I love and have loved my entire life on the big screen, able to fully appreciate it in a way I couldn't when I was little. I've said it before but damn, the Shrek franchise means so much to me. As I get older, I find that my favourite moments in this movie aren't the big, action-packed comedic moments everyone talks about, but the smaller moments. King Harold swapping the tea. The little smile Fiona gives Shrek inside the carriage as they're riding into Far Far Away. "I was but I can't let them do this to Fiona!" "I want what every princess wants. To live happily ever after.... with the ogre I married." There's just so much to love here, man. I love this movie. Fucking phenomenal movie.

..............and yeah, the Holding Out For a Hero scene is one of the top 10 most iconic moments in cinema next question!!

[br1ghtestlight]

my headcanon for louise and rudy's future now is that they date throughout high school and rudy ends up going to college in bog harbour for marine biology (considering they live on the shoreline its a course with a lot of local resources lmao) and moves into an apartment w/ louise for his second year. louise works at bob's burgers but actually gets PAID and trained to take over when bob and linda semi-retire. when rudy graduates he works at local aquariums and stuff (he loves teaching kids about ocean life and preservation) and eventually when louise takes over the restaurant they rebrand it into a weird ocean-life themed burgers fish and chips type resturaunt with a more expansive menu that also teaches ppl about the local marine life bcuz rudy is a DORK ans loves sharing knowledge with people. they never have kids but they're a great aunt and uncle (i imagine their lives being somewhat similar to edith and harold in that they're just a weird married couple running a local business together but never had kids. ocean avenue 4 life)

[a-kind-of-merry-war]

What’s your book coming out in November about?

dsfjks WELL. It's already out here (in the UK), and its a sapphic medieval romance about dressing up as a knight to save your best friend from getting married. It's called All the Painted Stars and it looks like this:

That's Lily on the left and Jo on the right. They're lesbians, Harold.

I've got a masterpost about it here with the full blurb, content warnings etc!

OH ALSO. Its a sequel, altho written in such a way that you shouldnt need to read the first one before you read Stars, as the stories are totally separate. The first one is called One Night in Hartswood and you can find out about it HERE ⚔

[expirisims]

The Dating Pool is Shrinking

It's Spooky Day! Now, I know that technically, Terrell isn't single as he's dating Brianna, but I wanted to throw another Single's Mingle to find some townie dates for my uncoupled sims. I can't believe how few are not attached! Cristina, Shayne, Alyson, Jess, and Harold. Everyone else is either married, engaged or dating! As I haven't been able to add Cristina or Brianna to party guest lists since sending them on vacation I had them group up at Terrell's house before heading down to Insignia. Blaine is still unattached and good friends with Terrell from the band days so I invited him too.

Bahahaha! Looks like they're having fun!

Oh boy! It looks like these two might actually be in it for the long haul this time!

Unfortunately, because Blaine is no longer in Terrell's band, as soon as the Neptune Lounge opened, he was pulled to work, where he's the bouncer! Brianna, too, decided to leave right as I was getting ready to send the group to Insignia for the party.

Looks like Terrell and Cristina are the first to arrive!

Looks like everyone is getting into costume! And Terrell is thinking about Alyson again, who was the next to arrive.

Harold came, and randomly Alicia showed up to crash our party, maybe because Cristina was there. Shayne showed up for two seconds and left, none of the townies I invited showed, not even Marisela, which surprises me a little because she and Terrell have been close for years!

Oh I see how it is! She's at Marsha's house instead.

So it was a bit of a dud as far as attendance is concerned, but at least the sims who DID show up had fun!

Terrell even took a turn playing DJ!

That's right! That's how it's done!

The night ended with the birth of baby Gallo! And Terrell's party was a success to boot!

[real-total-drama-takes]

As requested Total Drama Divorce headcanons

-Heather and Alejandro get married in like 2016, then get divorced in 2017, but then remarry in 2019 and divorce in 2023

Crimson and innui never actually gets married but aare one of the few total drama relationships to last

Izzy and Owen I don't think even get married they break up at some point around 2012 after world tour. That's why he wasn't in all stars Owen was depressed

Bridgette and Geoff get married and have like a big celebrity wedding. And then have a big celebrity divorce that's really messy

Lindsey and Tyler probably stay together. Even if they stop loving each other I feel like they're the type to stay together because is convenient

Sam and Dakota are getting divorced come one Sam is he most divorced guy I've ever seen. Sorry Samkota fans :-(

Harold and Leshawna are kinda in the same boat as Sam and Dakota. I don't wanna say it but I think they'd split up. I just don't know what they'd talk about they don't seem to have that many shades interests.

Noah and Emma stay together for like five years and break up. Neither of them are particularly surprised nor do either of them take it badly.

Duncan and Courtney get between action and world tour to spite their parents probably. You can technically get married at 16 in Canada and legal loopholes feels up both of their Ally's. They both do it to spite people and basically ruined any potential relationship they could have. You can guess what happens after world tour.

Devin and Carrie are such classic married young divorced young couples I can't even describe it. Does this ship have fans an I gonna make someone mad with this because I don't think anyone cares

Stephanie and Ryan get divorced. It takes them too long. Significantly too long. Like they have kids and get them tied up into the problem.

I mostly stuck to canon ships but eh what the hell

Cody and Sierra get divorced but there are two possibilities. Either Cody divorces Sierra because she keeps acting the way she did before and is unable to change. Or she does change but doing so is forced to realize just how flawed of a person Cody is.

A summary of The Original Ahriman

This is mainly aimed at new followers on Bluesky, so I'll only include things that have so far been posted on Bluesky.

Everything is in the order it happened, but some of it has only been implied so far and we might get back to those things more thoroughly in flashback/backstory format in future chapters.

Btw, to not confuse you about some parts below, Ahriman is genderfluid and can change their form. They go by she/they in their female form, and he/they in their male form.

Summary:

Ahriman was raised by the three Sages of The Magic Realm, Áine, Ethren and Keisha

Ahriman and Bella were in a relationship during their teenage years, they now hate each other because of how badly that relationship ended, because Ahriman is polysexual and greyromantic (they don't know about the "grey" part though, they think they can't fall in love at all), and no one taught neither Ahriman nor Bella anything about how to be a good partner (This part was posted in a "8 years earlier" flashback yesterday, and we're still in the middle of that flashback)

Bella and Mortimer married when they were 20, they're now 25 and Cassandra is 5

Ahriman and Grace Anansi start a woohoo relationship

Ahriman studies Villainy at Foxbury Institute

Ahriman works as a mixologist in the pub in The Magic Realm HQs

Morgyn and Caleb were in a relationship, Caleb was very clingy so it didn't work out

Ahriman accidentally "turned someone into a ghost" (more about this in a future chapter), and to say sorry for giving Grim extra work they took him to the movies, and then they stole one of his Death Notes

Áine got a crush on Morgyn, who's her apprentice, so she thought that maybe Ahriman could take over after her instead of Morgyn, which was basically Áine's brain not working properly because of her feelings for Morgyn

Áine and Morgyn start a relationship

Ethren and Keisha decide to take help from Grace and Tomax with Morgyn's training, because they don't trust Áine to be completely professional

Ahriman creates a Permanent Duplicate and sends them to a parallel universe

Ahriman struggles with loneliness, because everyone has always treated them the way you'd expect people to treat you when you don't act like a decent person

Ahriman tries to get help from Grace to handle the loneliness and Grace tells them to treat others the way they themself wants to be treated

A person spawns at the ley line in Ahriman's backyard, Ahriman figures out that the person is a magical exchange for sending their Duplicate to a parallel universe

Ahriman loses the magical-exchange-person

Ahriman feels like they should tell Áine about the magical exchange, but doesn't have the courage to do so

Grim figured out that Ahriman stole one of his Death Notes and is very angry because of the extra work Ahriman caused him by playing around with the Death Note (more about how the Death Note works in a future chapter)

Bella has trust issues and thought that Mortimer cheated on her with Bonehilda (he didn't)

Cornelia and Gunther made Bella and Mortimer go to couples counselling

Bonehilda and Grim start dating (implied)

Caleb is still very clingy and Morgyn doesn't want to see Caleb ever again

Lilith forces Caleb to go to therapy because of how unreasonable and clingy Caleb is

Áine and Morgyn's relationship isn't going very well because Áine thinks that problems can be solved through woohoo

Ahriman tries to get help from Grace again to handle loneliness, Grace suggests trying to befriend Agnes and Agatha, because Ahriman and Agnes both have a hate for Bella, and Agatha is nice to literally everyone

Agnes and Agatha take Ahriman sightseeing in Henford, and Ahriman decides to act nice for one day

Ahriman meets Harold the Llama in Henford. Ahriman loves animals and llamas are their favourite animal, so they're very happy to meet Harold

Ahriman breaks down from having been nice to Agnes and Agatha for a whole day, because they're very much not used to acting nice

Due to their breakdown, Ahriman sets The Magic Realm HQs on fire (no one was harmed, Tomax put out the fire) and freezes Bella with the Chillio spell

Grace talks some sense into Ahriman

Ahriman wants change, and tries to get that by Morphiating into their male form, which they haven't been in since they were young, but now it reminds them of having sent their Duplicate (who was spawned in their male form) to the parallel universe and having the magical-exchange-person spawn in this universe, so they go back to their female form

Ahriman decides to change their career to get some change

Ahriman tells Áine about sending their Duplicate to a parallel universe and about the magical-exchange-person that they lost, Áine gets mad

And this is where we are right now on Bluesky (though right now we're actually in the middle of the flashback mentioned in the second bullet point).

In my head, Roier never actually gave birth and instead it's another one of his fantasies. It helps reinforce how unstable, sad and yearning for love he actually is; my poor baby :(

But I see you've taken a different route, I guess.

I just love the idea of Roier being so clueless about love in general, so lost in his mind that his thoughts blur with reality to create his own;

Just Cell and him lying side by side, Cell caressing gently along his body.

Roier "Ah, sorry about these marks, I know they're ugly"

Cell stops. "What marks?"

I'm just sharing my headcanon with the world because I love but you can totally ignore this ask if you want, no hard feelings!

Peace and Love and Murder ✌

(Another note: I also hc that Natalan is, in fact, fucking terrified and horrified by Roier deep down. Poor dude, at least Cell is here to be a new object of obsession!)

(You accidentally sent this twice, so I'll just answer this one! :D)

Now, to be fair, I haven't actually seen Chafaland. Because I don't speak Spanish. But I have read a recap thread, and idk much about Chafaland lore, but I do know a Little Creature when I see one:

So this is the canon I'm going with for Bad Romance. He had a kid, and you can guess what that implies for his character pretty easily. (🏳️‍⚧️)

To me, the Sally that he ended up imagining was Sally 2. He also fully believes that he's going to open his eyes one day and find Sally Harold back in his arms. Once upon a time, he also imagined Natalan being there with him. Now, he pictures someone else in bed next to him cooing at their baby, and he's definitely over Natalan.

Definitely.

This is just what I'm working with though! I haven't seen the actual series, so who knows? This is what I've got, but your headcanon is obviously chill, too.

I do personally agree with Natalan being fucking terrified of Roier, though. Watching through clips, he did everything he could to keep Roier away from him, but nothing seemed to work. Luckily for him, Roier is definitely over him now that he has Cell, who really doesn't understand what he's gotten into. He sealed his fate the second he told Roier in that meeting room that he would get married if he ever left Alcatraz. Now he's going to get married whether he likes it or not.

(Because, contrary to a lot of people's opinions, Cell is not the only one manipulating someone in this relationship. Roier knows what he wants, and he is going to get him, goddamnit!)

George and Harold lore (headcannoned)

Ok so Mangaldas Mukherjee came over from India in 1893 to study medicine at St Andrews University. There he met Euphemia Bell, who didn't attend the university but worked in the village bakery owned by her family. They fell in love and got married after he'd finished uni. Effie's parents were thrilled, while Mangaldas' parents were less than - the Bells weren't the most well off family around but came around when George was born (yes I do mean George here bearwith!). She died when he was 10, in 1931.

Suhasini Majumdar is Harold's mother, and she moved to London with her family when war broke out as her father was inspired to 'help the war effort'. She met her husband there and got married. He was killed in 1918 during WW1 while Suhasini was pregnant with Harold.

In 1932 (this is where my maths might get a little funny) George starts at Weston, and takes a liking/looks up to Harold (he's like...16 about now?) as they're some of the only Indian boys there. Their parents are introduced at some such exeat weekend. Suhasini runs a charity for disadvantaged women, and mentions she could do with a doctor to check in one of the women in her boarding houses. Mangaldas says he is and goes to treat this woman, and gets roped in (voluntarily) to look at some of the other women too. They spend a lot of time together and end up falling in love and get married too.

I like to think their wedding was the year before MAM.

TLDR: George has a dead Scottish mother, while Harold has a dead father. Their living parents got together.

HIIII ok so I have a question about the power ranger TD au!!

Are there gonna be any ships? (I’m mostly interested in Noah ships (totally not my favorite character)) likeee is there gonna be Noco? Nowen? Is duncey gonna be canon?

(Also is Gwen gonna show up? IF SOO will there be gwourtney or gwent instead? Is the Duncan, Courtney and Gwen triangle gonna come?)

ALSO I CANT WAIT UNTIL THE DRAMA BROTHERS SHOW UP GANSNKSBAKAKAAH

ok that was all thank you very much good person 🫡

CRAWFISH SPOTTED YEAHEAHHHHHHHH

As for relationships... 😈

Since this is a self-indulgent AU made primarily for enjoyment, I'm pretty lenient when it comes to romantic pairings! If someone suggests a ship and I feel fine towards it, I'll give them some crumbs to work with lmao

Focusing on the pairings you brought up, though...

Noah - I headcanon Noah as being on the aroace spectrum, meaning he rarely feels attraction towards others. This identity is brought up several times in the AU, though not exactly by name (I don't think Noah would use specific labels, tbh)...

HOWEVER, he is not immune to the ship-bait crumbs! Noah and Owen are close in this AU, and can be read as romantic or queerplatonic. Nowen is explicitly canon in this AU, and most TD related things I'll write or draw! But, whether they're romantic or queerplatonic is up to the readers, I've decided. I love both interpretations equally, and I love Nowen because of how both interpretations work almost perfectly!

As for NoCo... I have mixed feelings towards this ship, but that's usually because nobody ever interprets it the way I interpret it: and that's Cody fucking sucks /aff /derogatory.

He had a weird one-sided situationship with Noah for 3 days in October of freshman year, said something FOUL and KINDA CRINGE about rizz and women, and Noah just got up and left. No hesitation.

Let Cody be a loser... genuinely. He gets mauled by a bear at least once. Other than that, no hints of NoCo in the main plot. Cody's out there freakin it loser style, and Noah is gay married to Owen in every universe.

Now for the questions about Gwen and Courtney - No for the love triangle, I felt that entire thing ruined all three characters. Like, Duncanis suppose to be a "punk with a heart of gold" and yet he's down to cheat??? Gwen, the anxious yet very progressive goth who's like... genuinely nice??? And bro what'd Courtney do to deserve that??? ... She did help carry WT tho

As for Duncey and Gwent? I'm on the fence. I don't think Duncan and Courtney are good for eachother. And Gwent was really cute in season 1, but the way they handled Trent's breakdown in Action just felt... off. I think I prefer both of them being single, unfortunately. Might have Trent and Gwen be exes on really good terms though? For world building and lore? Because both characters are revelant to the plot due to their connections with Courtney, Duncan, and Harold (primarily Trent for that last one but yk)

Qwourtney is a maybe, I did promise some Heather/Courtney crumbs for an anon so I'm down for that lmao

Honestly, if you wanna write or draw ship art for this AU, even if ifs not explicitly "canon" then go for it. I'd love to see it! This is a self-indulgent AU, and I'm chill w/ letting you guys get self-indulgent with my self-indulgent AU lmaoooooo

And to finish this off...

I'M GONNA USE THE DRAMA BROTHERS AS AN EXCUSE TO REFERENCE BUFFY, LET ME TELL YOU... DUDE. THE SCENES AT THE BRONZE AND THE COLLEGE HOUSE PARTIES WHERE INDIE/ROCK BANDS ARE PLAYING LIVE AND SMTH INSANE HAPPENS... CHANGED ME FUNDAMENTALLY. Omg i love buffy the vampire slayer hashtag feminism

[losergendered]

TTTE First Impressions: S6 Eps 2 and 4

Hello Train Fans of the Internet!

Now that I have this blog, I want to try and make it a habit of recording my thoughts about each episode I watch. From what I've observed, I feel like a lot of the TTTE fandom is composed of people who grew up with the show and/or continued to keep up with it until the end. And while I did watch the model series growing up, I actually don't remember anything that happened. 😅 Re-watching it now feels like watching it for the first time. And so I hope that sharing my thoughts here would provide a new perspective (or at least some entertainment).

First Episode for Discussion: Season 6 Episode 2 "Harvey to the Rescue"

This episode introduces Harvey the Crane Engine! And can I just say, I really like how Harvey's prop looks! Like, I look at him and I just want to pick him up like

I also like how they gave him more of a round, chubby face. I think it makes him look cute and distinguishes him from the others (outside of the fact that he has a crane on his boiler, but you know)

I really liked the scene where Harvey rescues Percy in the end. That was also really neat. It was cool to watch the crane move and the chains go down and the gears turning. Like, I just think it's really cool! Practical effects rule!

The one thing I found really odd about this episode is that Edward is... weirdly out of character? They have Edward among the other engines who are judging Harvey for looking weird. And I get that they're going for the whole aesop of "being different makes you special". But like, since when was Edward judgmental? He's one of the nicest engines on this railway! And yet here he's making the comment of "he doesn't even look like an engine". And like, THIS COMING FROM THE GUY WHO RESCUED TREVOR THE TRACTION ENGINE?! WHO DON'T EVEN USE RAILS?

Like I get it that it's a kids' show and you gotta get your aesop in there. But I think you can do it without making characters out-of-character. I think there are ways you could potentially have Edward be suspicious of Harvey without being outright judgy. But that's just my take.

Anyway, we also get another entry for the Jameward Relationship Timeline!

Look at them with their berths in the shed next to each other! They're so married ❤💙

Next Episode for Discussion: Season 6 Episode 4 "A Bad Day for Harold"

You might be asking me, "Why did you skip episode 3?" I didn't. Amazon's just weird about how they published the episodes. So "No Sleep for Cranky" was published as episode 1 when really it's episode 3, and I watched it thinking it was episode 1 and "Salty's Secret" was episode 2 until I looked up the TvTropes recap.

Anyway, I liked this episode. I love Percy and Harold's dynamic and it's always a treat seeing them together. I know Percy and Thomas are the ones remembered as the Iconic Besties(tm). But in my opinion, I actually think Percy, Toby, and Harold have the most fun and interesting dynamic with each other. Particularly with Percy and Harold, I love how they're the kind of friends who will continuously butt heads and tease each other, but you know that when it comes down to it they'll have each other's backs. And that shows here in this episode too.

I like how Harold asked them to load all the mail in his net so he's "not slow like Percy". It's a neat little callback to that one time Harold roasted him and was like "you're so slow, you should give everyone their stamps back" (which, by the way, is one of my favorite roasts in the whole show so far XD).

Also I think this is Harold's first crash? I watched Seasons 1 - 5 kind of fast so if I missed one previously, feel free to correct me.

I like the little detail of Harold hovering in close to Percy to thank him. That was a nice touch.

One last thought, as much as I've been enjoying Alec Baldwin's narration so far, I do REALLY miss the buttery voice George Carlin gave to Harold. Carlin's Harold voice is so needlessly zesty and it adds so much extra flavor to his character. Kinda wish Baldwin kept going in the same direction, but I respect him doing his own thing (at least he gave us Fruity James 💅)

That's all for now! 'Til next time,

CHOO CHOO B*TCHES!
