Riddle watches New Wish - Post #16
Battle of the Dimmsonian
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I want to highlight them specifically. Look at that FOP-style fairy boy! Baby's all grown up!
Jasmine and Winn are so ready to party at the museum sleepover.
Tumblr media
Oh, they are SO ready for this (Also).
slifdj, Peri looking ahead, noticing Cosmo and Wanda in disguise, and screaming "MY PARENTS?!?"
What the heck, Fairywinkle-Cosmas? You left your son for 10k years? Why? Look at him; he's got anxiety!!!
Dev: I haven't talked to Hazel since our fight :'( I need to get to her. /apparently doesn't talk to her all day and now it's night and he's trying to scare people with ghosts for no reason
Removing the staff during the sleepover night (after a spooky presentation) seems like something a museum would totally do as a prank.
Peri has been onscreen for like 2 minutes and he's already sad inside.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
-> Hey, I think he outgrew his fear of the dark!
Dev, I am begging you to make it clear to the audience what you're doing right now. This is not an apology. This is not close to what you said you were going to do earlier??
-> Confirmation Dev is Peri's first assignment, so my "high school trial run" lore hasn't been disproven yet. I can work with that in 'fic. We'll see if he says he's graduated.
-> I do have a fanfic set-up where he's going to do a trial program as Foop's partner when they're still in Spellementary, but I don't think this disproves that either since that's a very supervised experiment for him (It's their extracurricular).
I don't think I've said it, but I really enjoy the way this art style has been handling the hairstyles. These angles of Peri's swirl are really interesting.
Peri... Don't take this the wrong way, but if you can't handle Dev being mildly needy and pushy, you're not ready for the big leagues.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
idk, Peri strikes me as WAY too overconfident. He showed up ready to go a couple episodes ago. This is the first time he's back onscreen, and this immediate crash on his end is just proof to me that his inexperienced little tail doesn't know what he's doing.
Peri is the guy who's super hype for kids because he thinks they'll be cute and fun, but he's unprepared for work and responsibility. I'm getting "Tries to avoid changing diapers and/or feels smug about how little housework he does" vibes.
-> What decade is he designed after? Cosmo was designed with 50s aesthetic and I feel like this is actually on-brand for attitudes during Peri's aesthetic parallel time period. lol.
-> It's not like Poof was doing the hard work of godparenting when he was a baby. This is new for him and probably different than he fondly remembers.
-> I looked it up and apparently suspenders made a comeback in the 1980s. I designed my teen Poof for the late 60s-early 70s (and he's my flower child), but it makes total sense that he'd be a little farther forward in time since Cosmo and Wanda weren't allowed to have kids for the first 10k years of their marriage.
- Yeah, I would look at this man and say he's giving me "macho 1980s breadwinner husband who has a fragile ego regarding his manliness and doesn't do his own laundry" energy. - Please tell me he started dating Goldie and she broke up with him because he's not good with stress and now he's clingy and wants her back; "He lost the pretty girl because he wouldn't pull his weight" would be the funniest possible direction to take their relationship - I might need to write a 'fic about Goldie showing up while Dev is out and she and Peri have a fight where he's groveling and begging and then Dev walks in and he's like "... Oh boy, I can't wait to have a business relationship with this guy."
Peri came to this party like "I grew up with Timmy Turner. My grandma teaches godparenting classes. I even did a trial run with Mrs. Crocker... I know the ropes! :)"
-> His crown did not know the ropes.
Tumblr media
Diagnosed "would not take full custody in the divorce."
Peri, I cannot be any clearer that you can't behave this way around a neglected child right after establishing yourself as a trustworthy figure he can rely on. If this plot goes in the direction of Peri throwing in the towel (or snapping at Dev), I'm gonna crack up.
Like, at this point I am 100% expecting Peri to yell at Dev (maybe not this episode, but someday), and that's going to break this kid. I feel like Jorgen might get involved and separate them, unless Peri is desperate to "not have a failure on his record" or something (seeing as he seems embarrassed his parents know he's a godparent.
-> idk what's up with that yet. I'm genuinely confused. Peri, this is your first chance to see your parents since they dipped for 10k years. I can't get a read on your feelings. Are you angry? Did they invite you and you said No? How old were you? Did you grow up with Mama Cosma? Big Daddy? Boarding school? Inquiring minds need to know!
Maybe it's not been 10k years for him? Was he still existing in the slower-moving present day? Maybe Peri embarked on his own 10k-year trip? I'm puzzled.
-> I feeeeeeel like the time travel is a convenient plot device for the purpose of aging him up without jumping us forward to a more destroyed planet, and we're not going to get a straight answer about what happened with him, which is a shame.
Hmm. I suspect we're not going to delve into his backstory, but I'll hold out hope. Why throw that in there if you're not going to discuss it, though?
Did I miss something? Why does Dev think he doesn't need friends when earlier he wanted to talk to Hazel? Huh. I feel like there's a missing scene there. Hazel rejecting his attempt at an apology would've been helpful for me.
For some reason it's funny to me that the Tooth Fairy offered Peri a job, which he turned down. My brain immediately went Peri -> Cosmo is his dad -> Jorgen is Cosmo's distant relative but they refer to each other as cousins -> Tooth Fairy is Jorgen's wife. I wonder if they hung out together sometimes at like, extended family reunions or something.
-> von Strangles are big on family and Cosmo and Wanda kinda dipped out on theirs, so...
-> omfg, Mama Cosma is out there somewhere like that meme of the guy in the chair leaning over way far, head in her hands, because this is the 2nd time she lost her baby for 10k years. Left to get milk (Again).
Tumblr media
He's so cute. I'm so glad to see him back in the series; I missed him so much. He's always been a favorite for me, which was largely based on my own 'fics, so it's really cool to see a character I love showing a wider range of personality onscreen.
HAZEL! If you weren't mad at Dev anymore, you should've told him! He's been miserable about you yelling at him without giving him a chance to share his side!!
Tumblr media
His tushie cannot read minds!!
Dev is the kid that you want to get in a fight with because he's mean but then he looks at you like this and you're like " :| "
-> I hate that this is likely how Dale looked at Vicky once upon a time. Dev looks so much like his dad and now I'm like. "Yeah, she probably kicked him down the stairs."
Aww, reunion... <3
Tumblr media
I really do like their color scheme and vibes. I've always thought Poof was a good blend of his parents (Good blend of smart, clean, and on top of things while also getting into trouble, holding petty grudges, and making bad or dumb decisions). I'm happy to see him and it's cool to see their hair designs and colors together.
I'm glad "Certifiable Super Sitter" wasn't his swan song from the franchise. It's nice to see a deeper take on his character <3
Patty Possums Party Playground
I'm glad they're making an effort to balance Hazel's Dev interactions with Jasmine and Winn. I keep wondering if they'll get sidelined. This episode seems to be about them, though.
Is the animatronic going to be run-down?
Winn is having the TIME of their life.
Cosmo: We're gonna do this without magic! Hazel: Isn't shrinking Wanda magic?
Immediate prediction: the possum mascot has been summoned to party with them and now she isn't going to let them leave. She'll get aggressive if they try.
Oh no, Cosmo just suggested Wanda use her wand to try getting his out of the claw machine. Is she about to blindly follow and stick it in there like when they were swallowed by a bear and Cosmo suggested dipping it in stomach acid to measure how deep it was and it dissolved? And she just... did it?
Tumblr media
YES, sdlkfj. Never change, Wanda.
Nobody tell Gary and Betty there's a Smack-a-Mole game here.
The possum's singing a song about how the party never ends. Yeah, I think I called the plot.
-> Oh, I NAILED THAT!
Tumblr media
They're so cute:
Tumblr media
Hazel: Friendship isn't only about the moments you're together! It's also about holding each other in your hearts when you're apart! :) Dev, abandoned and confused since their fight: Hey. what.
Wanda dunking on friendship is very funny to me.
A Date to Remember
... Is this with Hazel's parents I assume?
-> Okay, maybe! That title card looks like it is. Also, waning crescent AGAIN? Y'know, the moons were so useful for my OG series episode timeline and I think some will have to be non-canon in New Wish.
I like how Cosmo and Wanda push their backs against each other the same way they used to dance. And I really appreciate how we seem to have a consistent floorplan for Hazel's apartment.
-> Okay, I treat "Cosmonopoly" as the first time they met so if I want to canonize New Wish, I have to un-canonize Cosmo's line about the diner being their first meeting spot, but I can't be mad since I pretty much never see anyone use "Cosmonopoly" for that.
Did Hazel just erase her parents' memories. Oh no, now they've never met! ... Are Cosmo and Wanda allowed to do that? It sounds like they just altered true love.
-> Hazel's parents look the same 11+ years ago as today. I'm a bit surprised by that.
CUPID! ... Oh, wow. His design's changed. I don't think I love it, but I guess it's cool they're doing unique shapes in this show since the OG had the same bodies all the time. I'm glad he's still a grump <3
-> Is he a lot older than Cosmo and Wanda? I'm surprised he aged(?) during normal time when they didn't during 10k years of travel? Is he old or just redesigned? Unclear.
I would make another "IS HE ALLOWED TO DO THAT?" joke here [Cupid trying to set Hazel's mom up with someone else] but... I mean, he's literally the only person who's allowed to do that.
Tumblr media
egg baby.
It's hilarious that Hazel convinced her dad to listen to her by saying she's psychic. Of course the parascience scientist would go for that.
-> Note to self, he was interested in it at least 11 years ago.
Cosma confirmed to still be Cosmo's surname!
Cupid's bragging that he won because Brewster (sp?) is going to ask out Angela, but she's totally going to turn him down. Get wrecked, fool.
I am OBSESSED with the fact that Cupid knows all the humans' names. That is a man who does his job. Also I love how he keeps nipping at his bottom lip with his silly buck teeth.
-> I don't remember Cupid knowing people's names in the OG series (I don't think he has much opportunity to say them besides on the dating show in his debut) and now I want to see if that's always been his thing.
-> I'm pretty sure I remember Timmy was given an arrow with his name magically engraved on it at the end of "Love Struck Out," so... interesting.

Double Crossing, Bird Bother, and a Total Idiot...
Rounding up a week in Hollyoaks (14th-18th October 2019)
Mercedes and Liam’s hit and run secret was almost exposed this week when Joel discovered the message left on Harry’s phone. At the start of the week, Breda decided that, as he’d been such a good boy, Tony could have some of Harry’s possessions. However, when she caught him trying to sneak Harry’s phone, Breda took them away again. Later, in her haste to keep the items hidden from Goldie, Breda accidentally dropped the phone in The Dog car park, something which she and Goldie surprisingly failed to realise. Joel stumbled across the phone and was shocked to hear the message that Harry had left for Tony, dropping Mercedes and Liam right in it over Grace’s hit and run...
Tumblr media
Rather than take the phone straight to the police, Joel, in his infinite wisdom, decided to confront Mercy with it, and told her that he would give her one last night with her family before handing it in. Of course, Mercedes wasn’t going to let that happen and she turned to Liam for help, telling him that she would leave the village with him if he beat Joel up. Liam was only too happy to oblige, however, he was spotted by Cindy following Joel into the alley, and Cindy wasted no time in giving the police his name when Joel was discovered some time later. Joel was rushed to hospital and Mercedes threatened him into handing the phone over, telling him that she would harm Goldie if he ever breathed a word to anyone. Luckily for Mercedes and Liam, Joel agreed, and so Liam was released from custody when Joel told the police that he couldn’t be certain who had beaten him up. Back in the village, Liam was busy packing his things to leave with Mercedes, however, when he went to meet her at the folly, he was both devastated and furious to discover a letter informing him that she’d never had any intention of leaving Sylver and Bobby...
Tumblr media
Meanwhile, it was the week of Liberty’s first scan and she was desperate for Brody and Sienna to make up before the appointment. After Liberty tried, and failed, to glue herself to The Love Boat in protest, Luke offered to help, but instead, set up a party in order to tempt Brody away. Brody ended up kissing Cindy, and Sienna was devastated when she found out. In fact, she was so upset, that she headed straight home to pack her bags, leaving Liberty concerned about what this meant for the baby. Luckily, Sienna was stopped from leaving the village by Brody, after Damon convinced him to give Sienna another chance. The pair made up and headed for the scan, however, they were too late. As Brody and Sienna entered the hospital, they bumped into a tearful Liberty, who informed them that there was no baby.
Tumblr media
Elsewhere, Peri discovered Romeo hiding out at the Maalik’s and was shocked to hear that James had hit him. The following day, Peri confronted James over his actions, leaving Marnie and Juliet disgusted. As if things weren’t bad enough for James already, he was later thrown out (of his own flat) by his family when Marnie and Romeo walked in on him shouting at Juliet...
Tumblr media
Also this week, Cindy was raging after discovering that a rare bird nesting in The Loft yard meant that she’d be unable to build there. Not to be deterred, Cindy roped Charlie and Leah, who were working on a wildlife project for school, in to help move the bird. However, before the kids were able to come up with a solution, their partnership was under threat when Charlie overheard Leah calling him a nerd. Charlie was hurt by Leah’s words and told her that he’d only partnered with her out of pity, as no-one else wanted to work with a racist’s daughter. Charlie spent the next couple of days ignoring Leah, but the pair eventually made up when Leah presented Charlie with a home-made bird box. Charlie was touched by the gesture and Leah struggled to hide her delight when Charlie agreed to meet up with her before school the following day. Aww! 
Tumblr media
In other news this week, a delighted Jesse presented Liam with the adoption papers for Iona, but Grace could see that Liam wasn’t 100% sure about signing them. Mitchell remained torn between Cleo and Anita and, finally, with Walter needing a bone marrow transplant, Martine considered starting the search for her long lost child.
Tumblr media
5 Things We Learned This Week:
1. Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today. Oh, Joel, mate. You’re an absolute plonker. When you find out something incriminating, you don’t go straight to the person you’ve got dirt on and tell them, giving them a chance to either do a runner or harm you! You take it straight to the police!
2. Liam is a very dramatic individual. He’s lost Mercedes, and now his life’s over apparently. Liam, we’ve been here before, haven’t we? You said all this when Eva died!
3. Nana McQueen once had a sexy dream about Emmerdale’s Lisa Dingle. Luckily, Lisa’s recent death means we’re spared from a cross-over featuring a live re-enactment. 
4. Leah’s not the sharpest tool in box. Lovely idea to make a bird box, not such a great idea to make it out of cardboard! 
5. Shredding a terrible mac is very therapeutic. 
This Week’s Cast:
Breda, Brody, Charlie, Cindy, Cleo, Courtney, Damon, Darren, Diane, DJ, Finn, Goldie, Grace, Imran, Iona, James, Jesse, Joel, Juliet, Kyle, Leah, Leela, Liam, Liberty, Lucas, Luke, Mandy, Marnie, Martine, Mercedes, Mitchell, Nana McQueen, Nancy, Oliver, Peri, Romeo, Scott, Sinead, Sylver, Tom, Tony and Walter.
Blasts From The Past:
Tracey Donovan, Warren Fox, Simone Loveday, Zack Loveday, Jacqui McQueen, Myra McQueen, Mac Nightingale, Harry Thompson.

Let’s Go Round Again...
Rounding up a week in Hollyoaks (5th-9th November 2018)
It’s funny how opinions can change so quickly. When the ‘Women Against Glenn’, or the ‘WAGS’ as they’ve come to be known, first teamed up, I really enjoyed their scenes. I was fed up of Glenn and his gang, but I loved watching all of the women who he’d wronged team up to take revenge on him. After many failed attempts, they were finally successful but still the story goes on, only now they’ve replaced Glenn with Liam, who is an even worse character than his Father (how is that even possible?!) This week saw Maxine sent into a panic as Liam continued to demand information on Kim’s whereabouts and when Maxine refused to comply, he threatened Minnie. However, Maxine soon realised that there was a way to save her own skin; give Liam the names of the other WAGS and leave herself out of it. After all, as she would later confess to the rest of the group, she hadn’t actually used her vial of poison, and therefore, was not responsible at all...
Tumblr media
Needing a way to keep Maxine quiet, Grace arranged a video call with Kim and recorded her naming Maxine as an accomplice. It seemed to do the trick and Maxine agreed to keep quiet. Although Liam was infuriated that Maxine was refusing to play ball, one of his contacts came good, and informed him that the forensics in his Dad’s murder had been wrong, and the finger prints on the vial did not belong to Kim. Still believing the WAGS to be responsible, Liam turned his attentions to Courtney and used baby Iona to get information from her. In a bizarre turn of events, social services handed over care of Iona to Liam, and Liam told Courtney that he would sign the baby over to her if she told him who had murdered his Father. Courtney gave the situation serious consideration and eventually gave Liam Simone’s name, reasoning that she was the only one of the group that did not have a young child. Knowing the danger she’d put Simone in, Courtney went straight to Roxy...
Tumblr media
At The Dog, Simone was taking part in a press conference, hoping to save her political career following a sex tape of her and Glenn being leaked to the press, completely oblivious to the danger she was in. As the conference wrapped up, Liam approached Simone and dragged her to the car park before bundling her into his car. Just then, Roxy and Courtney arrived on the scene and Liam was arrested for kidnap. Not only that, but Roxy planted a vial in the boot of Liam’s car, and he was soon in the firing line for Glenn’s murder. However, the following day, Roxy visited the WAGS and informed them that they sadly did not have enough evidence to charge Liam with Glenn’s murder and he would likely be released that night. It was Zack who would come up with a solution when he offered to act as a witness and lie to the police about seeing Liam poison Glenn. Simone was completely against the idea but when Roxy pointed out that it was their best hope, she reluctantly agreed. It seemed to work, and Liam was charged with murder...
Tumblr media
Meanwhile, Darren found himself in a right old mess when he shared a kiss with Nancy and then returned home to the news that Mandy was pregnant! As Darren began to process this bombshell, Nancy insisted that he had to be honest with Mandy about their kiss, and told him that if he didn’t tell her, she would. However, Darren soon found a way to discredit Nancy when he discovered that she’d faked last week’s MS attack and so Mandy refused to believe Nancy’s claims when she stuck to her word and told her about the kiss. A bitter argument broke out between the trio, resulting in Darren accidentally pushing Nancy to the ground. Although Darren was immediately apologetic, Nancy reacted by taking out an injunction against him, banning him from coming anywhere near her and the boys.  
Tumblr media
Desperate to spend some time with the kids, Darren took them out of school without Nancy’s knowledge. Whilst Oscar was pleased to see Darren, the same couldn’t be said for Charlie, who was furious with him for pushing Nancy. Charlie got particularly angry when Darren pointed out that Nancy wasn’t entirely blameless, and told Darren that his cheating was the cause of the whole mess in the first place. When Nancy arrived to collect the kids, another argument broke out between the pair and Darren announced that he planned to fight Nancy for custody! Good luck with that one, Darren! 
Tumblr media
Elsewhere, Sinead was well and truly settling back into life in Hollyoaks but Tony was growing tired of her using all the hot water, making comments about his pores and having to wade through her underwear to get to the kitchen. With Dee Dee about to be discharged from hospital, Tony told Diane that something would have to change. As Diane gently asked Sinead how long she was planning on staying, Ste was pushing her for information on Hannah’s whereabouts and Sinead realised she couldn’t carry on lying. Announcing that Hannah would be coming home that day, Sinead snuck off before anyone could offer to come with her and badgered Sami into giving her a lift. Poor Sami had no idea what he was getting himself into and he became even more worried when it became clear that Sinead had snatched her daughter. Back in the village, Ste was delighted to see Hannah again but Sinead’s life away from Hollyoaks soon caught up with her, when her husband, Laurie, arrived and demanded to know why she had taken Hannah. However, it seems that Sinead’s not the only one who’s been keeping secrets, as Sinead confronted Laurie over an affair he’d supposedly had and Laurie was later seen asking Sami for legal advice over an accusation made against him...
Tumblr media
In other news this week, Louis’ two worlds almost collided when Martine sent him flowers addressed to her ‘yogi bear’. Leela found the flowers on the doorstep and assumed they were condolences for Tegan, whilst Louis was able to rip up the card before it was seen. Harley’s poor attendance caught up with her when Sally informed her that she was failing the year and finally, Peri was delighted when Tom allowed her to spend some time with Steph. 
Tumblr media
Star of the Week:
Tumblr media
I loved seeing Charlie call Darren out on his wrongdoings this week. He’s absolutely right. Nancy may not have behaved perfectly these last few weeks, but it’s Darren’s cheating that created the mess in the first place. Charlie Behan, who plays Charlie, is a great little actor and I hope Hollyoaks give him more to do in the future. 
5 Things We Learned This Week:
1. Social services will hand over a child to anyone these days. Iona is nearly a year old and Liam has had no involvement in her life so far. The charges against Courtney have now been dropped, so why have social services decided that the best place for Iona is with Liam? Is he even on her birth certificate?
2.  Sinead wants to become a nurse. Even though it’s child nursing she wants to specialise in, it will surely only be a matter of time before she’s treating everyone, young and old. 
3. Where does a recovering alcoholic hold a press conference? In a pub, of course! I do like a bit of alcohol related irony. Like former Hollyoaks resident Mel Burton finally getting her alcoholism under control only to die in the pub during a fire. 
4. Hollyoaks like to get their money’s worth out a script. You can just imagine the conversations at Lime Pictures as this weeks scripts were written; “Just replace Glenn with Liam and hope that the audience don’t notice they saw these scenes just a month ago”. 
5. Tom’s got a very short memory. “Peri’s allowed to be a teenager but I’m not allowed���, he told Breda as he pointed out that he was the one who had been there for Steph for the last three years. So it wasn’t you, Tom, who flew off to Ibiza for a holiday without your baby? It wasn’t you who swanned off to London for the whole Summer a couple of years back? It isn’t you who only just seems to have remembered his daughter’s existence?
