"Mal lui en prit de jouer au "gangster"," La Presse. July 11, 1933. Page 3. ---- Un bambin de 13 ans a voulu faire son petit "gangster" mais a raté son coup de belle façon. Il avait adressé une lettre à une dame A. Beauchamp, 1246, deBullion, la menaçant de dénonciation si elle n'allait pas porter sans faute au "restaurant noir et blanc", angle des rues Sanguinet et Saint-Denis la somme de $75.00. Les policiers informés avisèrent Madame Beauchamp de bourrer une enveloppe de papier et d'aller au restaurant. Le garçonnet l'y attendait et s'empara vite de l'enveloppe mais il n'avait pas si tôt fait demi-tour, qu'il était lui-même saisi par le sergent Rafter et le sergent-détective Valois qui le conduisirent aux cellules de la Cour des jeunes délinquants.

colorkiller,,,,, again

i tried real hard to write their dialogue in the proper arabic (standard arabic for killer, egyptian arabic for color) and i hope to god they say what i want them to say, i was clinging to translators like my life depended on it

context for this is like. killer comes home during stage 1 and assumes based off the DT on his face and how tired and shaky he is, he must be having a rough day. fragile killer being held by color

aside from that, my own headcanon AU territory!!! killer with Night Terror :D

"HOLD STILL."

i plan to make another proper post about NT, covering his powers and design and stuff like that. for now a brief explanation

NT got gross hands that bring the worst out of people. its like acid to everything and not just dream. amplifies the negativity of anyone who touches it like tenfold

utilizes that to apprehend killer and inflict the NastyTM upon him, which sends him frighteningly quickly from stage 1 to stage 3, and sets him loose upon anyone fighting NT

aka "sic em boy"

and then they've never seen each other again

Lying to myself everytime Hiccup sends a terror mail in Rtte. Idc about coloration differences, it is Sharpshot. Sharpshot didn't just disappear after Dob.

Hiccup still has him, and loves him, and takes care of him. And he sits on Toothless' head and they play together sometimes but also have an incredibly one-sided rivalry centered around trying to impress Hiccup. And he bothers Hiccup while he's working because he likes laying on his desk like a cat. And for all the shit he gives them, he loves Hiccup and Toothless so much and they're like a little family. He's still there guys he's just chilling in Toothless' saddlebag most of the time.

The series may have forgotten about Sharpshot, but I have not. He is still there and so are all the other dragon riders' trained terrors.

One thing I really wish they would have had more time to develop in the show was the relationship between Crozier and James Clark Ross. Like there’s a little of it there but not “My Dear James who I will walk an hour to see, who I went to Antarctica with and spent many a night with at the observatory, who made the doctor write to him about my health when I was sick, and who I confided my deepest insecurities to” levels. It makes the ending hurt so much worse. Like historically thats your best friend in the whole world!! Right on the other side of that tent!! He has literally traveled thousands of miles into unforgiving terrain to find you!!! You are sacrificing something you hold so dear because you can’t forgive yourself!! You are rejecting love in the name of penance!!!

can we see what the coat fitzcoat looks like on?

Sure! It's slightly long in the sleeves as per the show, and while my version is not entirely screen-accurate, it's still quite warm.

whoops too real

Thinking about James Fitzjames sharing with Elizabeth C. the letters he received from these little girls to show off their penmanships and express how much it touched him to receive them 🥺

And little Fanny be all: "Frostbitten toes be upon thee!"

God, children are magical and that's the most precious thing I've ever read.

Jason + Calling Them His Family (An Analysis)

I've noticed that when Jason refers to his family as family in front of them it has a sarcastic or smart ass tone. It's italicized, has quotation marks, and/or is part of a quip.

Meanwhile in his conversations with others and in his internal monologue, he straightforwardly refers to them as brothers and family.
