#lockwood and do

[liveandbreathemusicals]

Gay people will be like “this is my comfort show!” And then show you the most emotionally devastating, stress-inducing, tragic piece of media you have ever witnessed

[iysure]

skull lockwood and co is my best friend

Good morning to everyone, except Netflix who keeps cancelling perfectly good shows for no fathomable reason. Fuck you in particular actually.

[snaplight-anxiety]

ohohohohohoho love when characters get premature/supernatural gray and white hair………yes please symbolism of the trauma you go through changing you physically.. wearing you out.. brushing with death in ways that prematurely age you……yes…..

[ineedhjalp]

oh honey i have rewatching capabilities you couldn’t dream of

[lilaccatholic]

It's hilarious to me how much the second half of the show seemed to want Lockwood specifically to suffer. Three instances come to mind in particular: at Winkman's, at the auction, and the fight with Joplin.

Winkman's in the book: Lucy and Lockwood snoop around, get caught, get thrown out

Show: Lockwood gets ELECTRIC CHAIR TORTURED

The auction in the book: Lucy and Lockwood’s plan works fairly well. They still jump into the Thames, but all in all, it goes according to plan

Show: a DEPRAC agent with a family gets MURDERED and Lockwood has a PANIC ATTACK because he feels at fault

Fight with Joplin in the book: Lockwood has a few scrapes from the fight with the thugs, comes and saves Lucy, George, and Kipps. The gun doesn't go off.

Show: SHOOT HIM AND HOIST HIS COLLAPSED BODY UP THE CATAFALQUE

Guys I swear I could fix him.

(He’s a traumatised, committed numerous atrocities and I’m not his type)

[tenuousnessless7]

Feel like it’s overshadowed by George’s “go write a poem about it”, but the Lockwood & George exchange right before that is legit one of the funniest moments in the series for me.

Lockwood: Gravediggers. Proper honest blokes, y’know, real salt-of-the-earth.

George: You’ve never even spoken to them.

Lockwood: …yeah, well they’re a bit scary.

Like it’s giving “rich politician trying to relate to the common folk” and I love that George calls him out on it lol

I think one of the most overlooked parts of lockwood and co lore is lucy's sisters. I barely hear people in this fandom mention them. they're literally haunting the narrative while being alive and well. we never got to know them, still lucy claims that her sisters were a bigger deal in raising her than her own mother.

[iliketopgun]

Y'all I gotta say something

Please remember this is my opinion!!

I can't stand when I'm looking for /reader stuff and I keep getting the use of "I", maybe I'm just being dramatic and pissy but I just cannot stand it when first person is used... I can't!

Anyways! I'm gonna go attempt to write

Lockwood & Co as Troubled Birds - Locklyle Edition Shall I do more? [1/?]

[thetimetravellercat]

I did this silly Lockwood & Co fanart after reading the fourth book. This snapshot just popped into my head while I was reading and I just had to draw it

[mistandshcdow]

so this happened

[snaplight-anxiety]

Quill kipps book three core like i KNOW he’s the annoying rude rival but also i love him. like he’s a dick and not a nice person but he’s also grieving and caught up in bureaucracy and he is terrified all the time and he’s responsible for a bunch of kid’s lives and he’s only just stopped being a kid himself and he used to be able to do something about his terror and used to be able to fight back against it but now he just knows it’s there and he’s helpless and the only thing he can do is send kids in to die and he used to be important and now he’s clinging to that importance by the skin of his teeth

the way that jonathan stroud wrote lucy and lockwood as characters that directly parallel each other in everything!!! she Listens and he Sees. he’s the title character and she’s the narrator. she has this great power and he wants to build a great agency. when apart she’s just as reckless as he is. even down to their likes and dislikes: she hates orange juice pulp and he loves it if only to pretend he’s a whale. she leaves to protect him and he comes back to protect her. she wants to communicate with ghosts and he wants to fight them. they have matching white streaks!!!! they are the most alike and the most different and that is why they work. literally no one has ever created such a compelling relationship with such compelling characters!!!!
