What's the best scene in the first ACGAS 2020 Christmas special and why is it the part where James gives Helen a blanket and Maggie and Tristan kiss?

through the whisky mists
18. The envy began the way the rot would take a ewe’s hoof, creeping, then all at once an emergency, a death sentence without some drastic measure undertaken.
James laying his hand at the small of Helen’s back as they walked through a doorway.
Helen’s fingers at the nape of James’s neck when she straightened his collar.
The gleam in Helen’s eyes when James slipped and called her mo chridhe when they sat in the parlor after supper.
It was enough to drive any man mad and Siegfried wasn’t any man. He was the man in love with Mrs. Audrey Hall.

Idk if you ship Helen/James, but if so, Some kind of Fantasy AU? Au where there are dragons.
Ooo, dragons! I love dragons + Sanctuary! And yes, I do ship Helen/James! :) Same drill as before! Three sentences + extended scene!
___
To his kingdom, Sir James Watson was a knight, extremely achieved, brave and true, just the right sort of person that could rescue Princess Helen Magnus from the clutches of the dragon that had carried her off some months earlier, even if it would take months more to execute a rescue attempt from such a fearsome beast.
To the princess in question, however, he was simply a partner in many ways, the person that loved her, that would rescue her from such a fearsome beast, if the need arose.
However, what no one else knew was that while James would rescue Helen if needed, there was no need at all, considering she had only pretended to be kidnapped by the agreeable dragon so that she may study the species in peace with the added bonus of quite a bit of time alone with James.
___
James sighed at Helen as he took the notebook she had handed him, pretending to be annoyed with her as she grinned at him and gave him the pencil that went with it.
He pretended to be above all of this.
He one of the most reputable knights in the entire kingdom and had been selected to rescue the princess from the dragon that had carried her off months earlier, keeping her as its pet and hostage.
No one expected him to return with the princess immediately.
Everyone knew that dragons kept princesses as pets and that they lived in areas of the mountains that were incredibly difficult to traverse and that it would be harder still to slay the beast without harm coming to the princess.
What no one but the two of them--and if he was honest, Helen's father, probably--knew was that Helen had not been taken by the dragon as a hostage.
Oh no.
Dragons, after all, were a sentient species, and Helen adored studying all manner of the strange beings that shared their world.
She had once spent a summer at the seaside studying mer when the court had been vacationing there.
What that meant, however, was that she was able to strike a deal with the dragon in question.
She would live with it as its pet for a few months as long as she had the chance to study it.
James had known that even before she had been 'taken'. After all, it had been all her idea that he come to rescue her, though James was fairly certain that their ability to marry after all this was just a bonus in Helen's mind.
"Write down the measurements exactly." Helen ordered as she unwound the length of rope she was using as a tape measure.
"Of course, your highness." James said dutifully, making Helen scowl before she broke into a smile.
She turned her back on him, approaching the dragon that was lounging on the other side of the cave, being very polite as she spoke to the creature.
The dragon extended its wing and lowered it so that Helen could measure it and Helen precisely recited the measurements and which parts they applied to over her shoulder.
James wrote it down, using the baby dragon that was snuggled in his lap as a desk. It didn't mind and snuggled against him some more, letting out a small purring noise as it did so.
Helen's dragon had several young and James had the sneaking suspicion that it had been so agreeable to whisking her away because it wanted a babysitter.
"This is hardly work befitting a knight." he called over to Helen as he awaited the next list of measurements.
"If a princess can do it, so can a knight."
James chuckled and scratched the dragon in his lap along its eye ridges, which they had discovered the creatures enjoyed.
Eventually when Helen had stopped her measuring and had climbed up on to the dragon's back to remove some shedding scales, James shifted the baby out of his lap and joined her.
"I am going to have to 'rescue' you eventually, you know." he said, somewhat quietly.
Helen paused in her work, letting out a sigh.
"I know."
James squeezed her knee gently.
He would let her stay as long as they could get away with, but there were many factors to consider in this. His reputation--perhaps even his life--was on the line. And Helen, as future ruler of her kingdom, couldn't stay away forever.
"I'll give you all the time I can, my dear."
"Oh, my shining knight." Helen teased, going back to her task.
James chuckled and shifted to help remove the shedding scales alongside her.
With the two of them, the work went by rather quickly and the dragon beneath them growled in appreciation before shaking itself lightly, letting them know it was time to get down.
James slid down first and turned, reaching his arms up for Helen, taking her around the waist and setting her firmly on the ground.
She smiled at him and placed her hands on his chest.
"This will be worth it." she told him.
"Yes." James agreed. "Rescuing you from a dragon will practically force us to marry."
Which was rather ironic, considering that James's rank as a knight, under normal circumstances, was not considered high enough for him to wed a woman of Helen's status.
"Oh." Helen sighed lightly. "I was talking about how this research will further our understanding of dragons."
James burst into laughter as Helen grinned up at him and he bent his head, drawing her mouth to his for a kiss.

[A three-panel comic in the style of A Softer World featuring pictures from the 2020s version of All Creatures Great And Small. The first panel features James proposing to Helen with text reading "I asked for a fairy tale romance." The second shows them smiling at each other after their wedding with the text "In my defense". And the third shows Helen crying after James chooses to enlist with the text "I'd never read any actual fairy tales."]

this cumbersome and heavy body.
(TW for canon-typical body horror)
I finished this little project about a year ago (by little I mean this thing was a MONSTER took me months to get around to finishing) and honestly every opportunity I get to share it I will goddamit. Unfortunately I can find the TikTok that put the idea in my head but it was just going to be a short snippet of the song until my brain exploded and the rest was born. For my first attempt at a project like this, I'm pretty happy with it.
Here’s a few of my favorite frames~

Helen talking about being married to James: Yeah, sex is cool and all, but have you ever seen him bring a puppy back from the brink of death?
#All Creatures Great and Small#ACGAS 2020#Helen/James#Completely forgot about this post and practically screamed laughing.#She says this to Tristan. And he's like 'no. But I've seen him do risky surgery on a cow. And you're right. It's awesome.'

through the whisky mists
19. “Was there anyone else, besides Hugh?” James said. It was easy enough now, to ask, when he was sure of her, Helen’s head on his bare chest, his fingers playing idly with her loose curls. She was drowsy, tired from a long day at the farm, satisfied after lovemaking.
“Anyone else?” she said.
“That you liked. Who caught your fancy,” he said. “Some other boy.”
“Would who that be? Daft Donald from the costermonger’s?”
“Well, I don’t know. What about Tristan?”
“What about Tristan?” Helen propped herself up, particularly beautiful, and giving him a look of utter reproach.
“Tristan? Tristan?”

Anyone else doing the ink-tober thing? I’ve made my own list based off tma. I would love to see what others are doing!
I don’t do many ships. The pairings in here are souly the relationships they have in the show. Example: I don’t ship Trevor and Julia beyond a fatherly to daughter relationship.
IMPORTANT EDIT:
It’s come to my attention this should have a tag. I’m going with #tmatober or you can tag #foxnfishstudio Please tag so me and others can follow your awesome creations!

Here's a few gifs with my favorite scenes from my TMA animation! I had to speed a few of them up a bunch or cut them down to make it fit with the music. I really like how the colors turned out on this one!
