ok hear me out: i don’t think mrs flood is necessarily evil or scheming. she’s tied to the pantheon in some way, but her name isn’t harbinger. and whoever ruby’s parent is, they’re almost definitely also tied to the pantheon too. it seems more than possible that mrs flood was placed there to keep an eye on ruby until the time was right, not to cause trouble or a disaster of some kind, but just as an observer

Details under the cut:

London Beer Flood: Somewhere between 500k and 1.5 million litres of beer flooded out of a brewery. I like the part when the day of the accident an employee noticed that one of the vats was damaged and his supervisor said that this wouldn't cause any harm. So anyway, 8 people died and the brewery almost bankrupted. I think everyone who's house didn't get destroyed was very happy about the flood.

Prohibition loopholes: It was illegal to make, distribute or sell alcohol. So obviously they sold grape concentrate you could use to make juice, AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE add yeast and let it ferment. that'd be illegal

…how did you even get this??? Give the man his hat back! The stats can’t be worth it!

Remember how I was supposed to be like figuring out how to draw this guy in my style. Well… I drew part of him? Partial credit.

How after all those years they are still interested in eachothers this way does dan going on tour did wonders because they missed eachothers?

i don't think it did wonders, because they were always like this to some extent. but wad definitely did something, secured their relationship for starters.

One of my favourite views in my local area. This is Limekiln Dock in Limehouse which is basically a small inlet from the River Thames. Here converted warehouses stand right next to the water's edge. I cannot say whether they flood regularly and whether they have excellent damp proofing!

It's been pouring rain where I live since playing Firmament. Immersive gameplay has gone too far

I know nearly everything points to Mrs Flood being a Pantheon member, but I will carry the Iris hopes until the moment I have to stop.

“But she seems kinda evil?” Iris would think it’s funny. She would like fucking with the audience, keep us guessing, it’s fine.

Or maybe Mrs Flood is evil. Maybe she’s Iris’s Master expy. Mrs Flood will be in the middle of an evil speech, there will be a dixie horn, she gets hit by a bus, and then Iris (with the exact same face) stumbles out and looks down at the mess with a 😬 before shrugging and going ‘oh well, it happens.’

Day 2129, 21 April 2024

[yannfredericks]

saw legally blonde again the other night so once again thinking about the legally blonde yolly au I want to write one day <3

-polly is elle woods and yann is emmett forrest, obviously

-the musical has them so perfectly set up as bewildered by each other but drawn together nonetheless and then fierce, fierce friends who would do anything for each other and support each other unconditionally

-yann being bi would also be giving polly advice on how to get her ex back and what usually works with him for guys etc (or maybe she has an ex girlfriend???? something to think about)

-polly finding herself and her power through the law but also her deep rooted (but previously more subconscious) desire to help people and make the world a better place, especially for those who are marginalised in society

-they’d both befriend karl, craig, rose, albus and scorpius along the way!!! the gang found family core

-something funny to me about turning yann fredericks into mr “I don’t go to parties a lot, not good use of the time that I’ve got” ….there’s probably a scene where they do end up at a party together and polly is shocked by how hot and competent at it all he is and he’s like ‘I said I don’t go a lot, not that I don’t go at all’

-the bend and snap / gay or european turns into both yann and polly performing the bend and snap in front of the witness to test if he’s gay and when he’s only paying attention to yann, yann is both smug and proud of polly’s instincts, he probably makes some comment about how he can’t comprehend people Not looking at her

-it’s the genuine friends to lovers of it all!! they are obsessed with each other, they become each others closest and fiercest friend and they both know that there’s something more there but their friendship has become SO important they’re worried about compromising it (also yann thinks she’s still invested in getting her ex back and is trying to be supportive)

-something something polly chapman proposing to yann fredericks just feels deeply right and real
