HDM ADAPTATIONAL RAMBLES

i’m still not over the fact that we got the atom speech AND the “let’s come back every year” speech pretty much word for word in the show. like, this is a show that has proven they care SO MUCH about the source material (jane just being a lingerer with pullman until he greenlit her to make it is such a mood).

could they have done masriel in series three better? yes, of course, we could have had much more with them. but them cutting midnight is literally my only gripe with the entire show.

like, this is how book adaptations should be. and using long form television to make it too. 💙

Ooc: opinions so far? Hehe. Oh! Pinions.

🔥-pinions!!!! 🤯

[mini-leafster]

🔥-its been a while 😭😭😭

No! Junior is not doing okay. She has a shotgun and got her arm ripped of but is back to normal because she shot Golf Ball point blank. Maple is dead. FBP has an entire FAMILY now and Shroomy has infected Pin Jr who by her own will became a murder robot turning people into stuffed effigies after consuming their corpses. She is missing an arm and a leg and has gone mad.

WHAT

ooc post

Hello! Archer is going on a short hiatus (against my will) since I can't play No Man's Sky for a bit and I have no backlog anymore. I'm still around though, and if anyone has some questions about Archer (or in general) I'm down to answer OOC! No pressure, just putting the opportunity out there. My hope is I can get back to playing by Sunday or Monday. (Many thank-yous and some shoutouts under cut because I'm incapable of writing a short post)

If you'll permit me a few seconds to be a sap--thank you very dearly to everyone who follows, interacts, or even just looks at this blog in any way. It brings me great joy to see people enjoying my silly story with my silly little Traveller (who desperately needs a hug). It's absolutely wonderful getting feedback like this on one of my creative endeavors.

And a special thank you to everyone who's sent in asks. Dear lord. I didn't anticipate the sheer amount of people who would be reaching out as fellow Travellers, and it is absolutely wonderful. Multiple of you have made me cry on several occasions with how heartfelt some of your messages have been. And the goofy ones have made me laugh, and the thoughtful ones have given me a chance to really think in depth about Archer's character--I love every single one of them! (Also the advice. Spyglass, you have revolutionized how I get money right now.)

Also, if you like my blog and don't already follow them, you should go check out @iteration-anomaly and @thrice-iterations! They're two other in-character blogs from more experienced Travellers. They also do more goofy interactions than I do! (I love the commentary you two add to my posts, I just cackled at the responses to Archer using his phase beam)

Ahhhh. Sorry, I am very long-winded. (Though you'd probably be able to tell that by the sheer amount of posts on this blog already.) TLDR is I 'preciate y'all a lot, I 100% recommend following Anomaly and the Thrice iterations, and if you have any questions about Archer that you wanna ask OOC, I'm here!

AWTA for conning old Davy Jones? (ooc: long one, mostly because it is based off a 20 minute long song)

I guess it all starts on that day, the first of december. We (the captain and I) spotted a wrecked ship with no crew in sight. We weighed anchor and headed to shore. Climbing through a sharp break in the hull we found a man hanging from the rigging. Bloodied, beaten, bruised and dangling he rasped "beware you ignorant fools! Do you not know the look and the sign of a ship when she's taken surprised and asunder she's torn, mast, rudder, and plank as though caught by foul winds in a tempest from hell. Then comes reeking a black stench as a thousand dead rotting sailors it seems and before you can jump ship and make for land you are lost for that is the breath of the beast?"

He died after finishing that.

We thought nothing of it until three years later, on the first of June at Tortuga. The sky turned green and the sea, red, and before the captain could rouse me or the crew a maid rushed in and told him "we are under attack, come with me." It was a ruse, he was lured to the ship and then the ship was set alight, with him aboard. When I woke, I found the crew gone and the captain dead.

I found another ship to sign onto, and kept on till the thirteenth of march. We (not the captain and I, the crew I had signed onto) had just unearthed our trove of treasure, we had one more journey to make before we could disband.

Then a storm came in an instant, and soon from the deep came a reeking black stench, it seemed like a thousand dead and rotting sailors, and soon I saw the face of the beast.

The other captain shouted "To arms! put fire and sword to the beast, to fight is our only hope!" We rallied with cannon and sword and the captain himself cut out the beasts heart, and died in the act.

I repeated the first line of the warning I had heard four years before, and an old man who survived next to me said "Every sailor and scalawag knows of the beast, by the green of the sky and the red of the sea. This is the work of old Davy Jones - he'd have dragged us down to his courts." and continued "there is a girl that I know at the tavern down by the bay. Her hair is red as the flames of hell and her tongue drips with honeyed lies. Her skin is pale as silk-covered bones and her eyes are as green as the sea when it crashes and pulls you under to sleep until judgement."

They appointed me captain, and I felt I had business with the maid whom I had met before.

On the twenty seventh of may we reached tortuga and divided our plunder, and I went in search of that woman. I found her in a brothel where I gave a few coins to have her sent my way. I followed her to her chamber and she offered a cask inlaid with gold, which I knew to be my doom. After I drank she cried

"Beware, you ignorant fool! greet my husband when you descend to the ship that will never set sail!"

I fled and cried "though my spyglass had seen through your plans, still the loneliest hearts may be swindled and bled"

I was greeted by a dead man, the flesh eaten away from his skull.

"welcome, you're a corpse among many, I'll take you to see Davy Jones"

Well the captain had been here eleven long months and denied Davy Jones his service every day of them. He recognized me and pleaded Davy Jones to not hurt me.

Davy jones said "this isn't the last you've seen of me nor the first, but it may be the worst. This man who stand before you, beloved of yours is he not? Trustworthy to the end he has come to save you from rot. I'll be plain, I need a crew, and you have denied me eleven months as if you had something to prove. Withhold yourself today and my wrath will come in full to your crew and this man who wished to save you.

The captain agreed to serve, and me as well.

It was midnight after thirty long years of work so that Davy Jones may leave on his ship to find his bride and his heart when the captain pulled me aside and said "the repairs are nearly all made, when the anchor goes up and the sails will raise and Davy Jones will be away."

I realised that that would be the worlds doom and asked the captain of it. He had in secret planned.

he said "

"Davy Jones I have done as you said, Every order fulfilled without fail. But now we're going home, and we're leaving you here— It is you who shall never set sail!"

Davy jones scoffed "it is my ship, what gives you the right to come aboard. "

He said that he was the first innocent man down here that Davy Jones came to trust.

Davy tried to play our sympathy, but the captain saw through him. We pushed davy off the deck and raised anchor for fiddlers green.

But what if Davy Jones was not lying, what if just leaving this once would have him let go of his hate. Surely then we should have listened to him, but Jone's deeds were that of a heartless killer and slave-driver, so I do not know what the proper course was.

Oh! Forgot to mention in reset I woke up Maple and she immediately did a hook to Leafior. Now Past Ship Spyglass and Jar are fighting an evil baby.

They're losing.

Phantombur nods, beaming, his tail flicking happily.

Yeah! I get all of the supplies, I make the potions, I run the shop, all me. It does really well, a lot of people in town love to come in and chat so that's really nice.

Biting his lip for a moment, Phantombur gestures to the shelves, feeling his heart grow happy that he has a friend he can show off the most important thing in his life to.

Go on, take a look! If you find one or two things, I'll let you have it on the house! Let me know if you have any questions about things.

While Wilby does that, Phantombur walks over to his desk and sits down, starting to put together a disassembled spyglass, tongue sticking out the corner of his mouth in concentration.

(OOC: In terms of the lore timeline for me, this takes place a few days before Phantombur meets Incelbur ehhe)

( @flightlessphantomboi ) 💜🌌

Phantombur's wings are obviously ruffled and twitchy and his teal freckles flash occasionally on indigo skin, the only lasting effect of his breakdown a few hours ago. He tries to ignore it and smiles at Wilby.

Uh, h-hiya Wilby! I was just wondering why you blush purple and not a more natural skin tone blush?

He realises that might sound a little offending and shakes his head at himself, muttering for a moment.

Sorry-I didn't mean it like that...I-I just haven't seen someone do that before. It's quite a nice colour though! Like when it turns dusk and the orange bleeds out of the sunset and is replaced by the purples and blues of the night!

Phantombur smiles again, his tail twitching.

Hello there . !

A completely natural question . .

So , although my skin is quite pale, it does have a slight green tint .

And my blood is a dark purpleish blue ?

So . . I guess the colors combine to make purple

. .

When I blush . .

Now that I think about it , it is quite strange . .

But thank you for asking !
