“it's easy to forget that the average potc viewer probably only knows the original screenplays and one or two jack davenport interviews”
“and swann song, of course.”
“of course.”

do you think Ari would ever want or try to go rumrunning with Ivy and Rocky or does she just enjoy visiting lackadaisy. It would be cool though to see Ari rumrunning
honestly, it's not something she'd want to do and i can't think of any good enough reasons for her to get roped into it, even if she was in need of a second job she still wouldn't take up rumrunning
most she's willing to do is help in carrying the crates full of illicit beverages and bartend while Viktor's out of commission
#i do have a rumrunner!Ari AU for funsies because yEAH I ALSO THINK IT'D BE COOL TO SEE#but there's still no reason for her to be doing it- if there is then it'll be mostly out of character gdskgds#so yeah she just likes visiting the Lackadaisy.. ...for the music.. ...and stuff-#asks#nori-the-mouse#hc tag

taking advantage of your suggestion for three characters so I don't have to make a decision on which duo to pick: gov swann, elizabeth, and james in #96?
“A little in the way of water will not harm me, Commodore,” Elizabeth had insisted, obstinate, her arms crossed before her. The noise of the rain and wind nearly drowned her words, and Norrington leaned close to hear her complain of the reeking humid airlessness of the Dauntless’s cabin, shut up to hold the weather out. Even after their betrothal, some part of him felt it an unwarranted imposition. “A little may not, but this is a great deal more than that. What will I –” he stopped himself, and corrected, “What will your father say if you are swept away?”
send me a number and two (or more) characters, and get a five sentence drabble!
#set sometime between rumrunners' island and the hanging? is it before or after isla de muerta? HMMMMM.#' i can't possibly admit i don't want the woman i'm marrying to die ' and other greatest hits from jimothy n. useless. <3#ask meme#fic#my fic

"BOAT ALLEGED TO HAVE TAKEN WINE IS SEIZED," Hamilton Spectator. December 4, 1933. Page 7. --- Said to Have Carried Liquor From Hamilton ---- And Deposited It Near Rochester City --- Impounded By R.C.M.P. at Port Hope ---- A new development in the wine transaction between the H. Robinson corporation and an American bootleg ring came to light over the week-end when Sergeant Frank Samson took two men to Port Hope and seized the Harry H., a 125-foot craft that is alleged by the police to have carried the shipment of wine from Hamilton to a point near Rochester in the latter part of October.
Mounted Police officers stated that they had information in their possession that the craft in question had made the trip from Hamilton to a point near Rochester, where the purchasers of the wine had received it. Late Saturday Constables Crawford and McDuff, from the Toronto R.C.M.P. barracks, were placed on the boat after it was officially impounded by the government.
The boat has been lying in the west harbour at Port Hope for several months, ever since the law was passed prohibiting the export of liquor, but longshoremen at Port Hope said the ship was absent from its berth for three days at the time the police claim it made the trip. At this time the waterfront men said it sailed light and came back. -light and they believe the boat made the trip first to Hamilton and then to the American shore before returning.
Former Sub-Chaser The ship is of sturdy build and was used as a sub-chaser in the Black Sea during the war and is capable of doing about 40 miles an hour. It could make the trip from - its home berth to Rochester in about an hour, the lake sailors stated. It was registered at Toronto and the crew never stayed in Port Hope, residents of that town said. Whenever the ship made a trip the crew was brought down from Toronto.
At present Milton B. Staud is being held at Rochester charged by United States authorities with being in possession of merchandise that entered the country without the taxes being paid, but he will be turned over to the Mounted Police officers after they apply for extradition.

Subclans that I have in my head but just haven't made yet because I need like three lair expansions first:
-A subclan of Beastclan and Dragons that do horse races. The Beastclans are the Jockeys and the Dragons are the mounts. The dragons don't mind this because they're paid really handsomely. There's a whole bunch of different types of races (Based on size, flight ability, average speed, fighting allowed/disallowed, etc). They race all around Sornieth and the dragons have really hilarious racing names that are agreed upon with their Beastclan partner. (Taking from the PEI racer's names I witnessed recently, things like "Somewhere Fancy", "Proven Lover", "The Rev", "My Man Charley", and "Roll Withitharry"). Horse Girl drama, but it's with dragons and Beastclan! Saucy!
-The Subclan lead by a personal dragon called Ram-O-Tan. He's named after the family ship! (We had a family ship back in the day when my family was bringing bread back and forth to PEI from the mainland). A bunch of mysterious sea-going dragons that take from various ocean-related mythos and a lil mix of family history. I have two right now- Navigator and Ram-O-Tan himself! But I have many stories from my family ranging from rumrunning during prohibition to more benign things like shipping food to an otherwise-isolated PEI in the winter before the bridge was finished
#Flight Rising#fr#Real talk I always found our “Rumrunning during prohibition” thing FASCINATING#Apparently our family tree branched out a lot there because. Y'know. Y'knoooooow.#So none of the extant branches of my family (Of which there are a good few) are sure which one of us is the “Legitimate” branch#and which are the bastard branch#We all get along though this is HARDLY serious drama#I mean it probably was back then#but thankfully the branches of this tree exist in happy simpatico with each other#Though we have genuinely accidentally found other families with our last name and went “Oh shit are you possibly related to this guy”#and the answer is yes and it's the fucking rumrunner#You go Grandpa#This family tree will be a Family Quaking Aspen at this rate

i'm thinking rocky rickaby thoughts... my love he is an artist... a musician, a poet and more... a scientist, a researcher, someone who adores learning and knowledge and more... i cannot get over the fact so much of him and what he does now is something of a desperate, drowning "i want to be useful" above all else.
i love him so much... i want to romance him and cuddle him and i want him to look at me and think "not once has she made me think i wasn't exactly who she wants." or something of that sort...
"not once have i doubted my place by her side," not because i somehow rid him of that anxious quality of him but because i am so fervent in reassuring him without him needing to ask. it is how i am.
#[.rainsreveries]#[adrift.txt]#▐ ;#perhaps he doesn't think in those exact words#but it's a sentiment similar.#i say he is a scientist mainly because of the fact that so many of the books he read growing up were all#very very informative books. that encouraged his curiosity. made him the sort of guy he is today. so verbose!#he's *very* well read. sometimes i wonder if people underestimate him due to his wild demeanor#but he's genuinely‚ deeply well-read and extremely well spoken. gotta do something when you're on the road huh? <3#ohh‚ what made me fall in love? was it his alchemical references? his poetry? his moon-motif?#his silly‚ playful‚ desperate demeanor?#desperation to be useful‚ desperation to have a place for himself?#to dispel that echoing loneliness within him?#he'd do anything for those he loves‚ even if it meant becoming a criminal. is that what you need from him? he'll *do* it#need him to hammer a nail into his nose? he'll do it. he'll be a stuntsman‚ a linecook‚ a rumrunner. anything.#and i'll do anything for him‚ too.

There's a special kind of raw energy you can only experience when you attend a live Punk show. It's next level when it's a home town band playing in front of friends, family and fans. On tour with Doghouse Rose, Toronto's Lime Ricky brought their Sk8 Punk sound to London's Rum Runners. Their short set had the crowd jumping and dancing along with the likes of "It's Been Real", "Drink My Words" and "Hundreds of Hangovers". It was definitely a great vibe to experience live. While they have wrapped up their live shows for the year, I'll be watching their Facebook Page (Link below) to see when they tour again.

HIIII!!! I love your stufff!!!! I just wanted to see if you're in the mood for a request for Mordecai and/or Rocky with a reader who has like NO interest in being involved with crime, but has ALL the skills to become a great bootlegger. Like, they have an amazing eye, they're great at driving, they're incredible at thinking under pressure.
It's been in my mind forever and I thought that you'd LOVE to write something for this! Sorry if it's too much! I love your writing!!!
Whilst he understands why you’re not a rumrunner
He also believes it’s your calling!
You’re gonna need infinite patience with him because he’s going to come up with so many reasons as to why you should join him
He won’t pressure you- just strongly incline that you shouldn’t miss this opportunity
He watches you use your talents for other things too though!
And sometimes he’ll ask you teach him how to think better under pressure
Please take pity on him he just wants to impress you and miss Mitzi
He admires you
To put it simply!
Finds that whilst you would make an amazing rum runner- you’ve made a living for yourself using your talents in the more legal aspect
Will challenge you to chess matches- but watch out he’s a sore loser and mean winner
Asks for your perspective on things and will actually take what you say into consideration
Consider yourself lucky that he will come to you instead of making you come to him
(He’s almost slightly jealous)

someone get this woman away from it all, heaven knows she needs a vacation
character description i wrote for Elsa below the cut since she doesn't have her own:
"With hooded river eyes that hold the weight of a bygone war, Elsa is the resident doctor for any gangsters, bootleggers, and rumrunners passing through. She runs a liquor trafficking operation with her brother and husband in Defiance, Missouri, providing her medical expertise and no-nonsense demeanor to the trio. Elsa was a former nurse in the Great War where she would wed the gregarious Bobby Bastion. Opposites attract, this is true, but she would later on build a perhaps deeper bond with Viktor Vasko while he stayed in Defiance, as the two found silent solace in the other for their shared, lingering trauma of the war, in contrast to her husband's cheery nature despite being a veteran himself.
When Elsa is not sewing up brains back in heads or poking needles in scaredy cats, the world-weary woman probably likes to garden, tolerate her husband's yapping, and suffer no fools."

How is Ari and Rocky's relationship after he got the head damage/scar?
on one hand, she sees the horrors he's subjected to and a lot finally adds up, so they become closer in that regard
on the other hand, he doubles down on distancing himself from her once he's out the door
so... ..kinda strained?? ?
#not that she hasn't seen him with scratches and bruises before but.. ...y'know. this ain't just that + the confirmation he's a rumrunner oof#anyway IT'S FINE it doesn't last long- they get together shortly after lmao#also i still wanna draw stuff related to this#I'LL GET THERE SOMEDAY#asks#thisiswasabis#hc tag

so we’re all in agreement that Jack, a castaway who had nothing of value — just a pistol with only 1 shot and a compass that doesn’t work — bartered passage off the island with the rumrunners by letting them ********* him right
