logically the concept of the hotel as a library was probably dewey's idea HOWEVER
I like to consider that Frank and Ernest organized the rooms in the hotel like that so that they could say their brother's name every time they explained it

the other day i was thinking about olaf being described as tall in the books, and then i paused to consider, was he "much taller than average", or just "seemed tall from a child's perspective"? after all, olaf's age, according to DH, is "however old children think old people are". so when he was described as tall, could that just be that he looked tall to the three kids.
so i thought, were other people described as tall? off the top of my head the one thing i recall is, jacques was described as " not as tall as olaf" and "not as thin as olaf", and possibly the only adult character whose height is directly compared to olaf's iirc
for comparison's sake, i went back to check if other adults were described as tall as well. olaf and each of his disguises were repeatedly described as tall. within his troupe. the bald man has been described as tall, and fernald, while in disguise, has also been described as tall. charles and sir were both described as tall at some point. so were georgina, esme, jerome. and some more.
esme, like olaf and fernald, has also been described as tall when in disguise and using a fake name. she's also been described as slender.
denouements are also tall, and more than once described as "tall and skinny, with legs and arms sticking out at odd angles"
side note: this has nothing to do with height but: georgina is described to have blond hair. this is interesting because in the books it wasn't that often that a character's hair color is specified. aside from georgina, olivia is described to have blonde hair - "with a flick of her wrist, she unraveled the turban, and her long, blond hair fell down around her tearstained face" (she, on the other hand, was not described as tall)
references below:
poe:
a tall figure striding toward the Baudelaire children. (tbb)
charles:
the children turned to see a very tall man with very short hair. He was wearing a bright blue vest and holding a peach. (tmm)
nero:
a tall man with a violin under his chin and an angry glare in his eyes. (taa)
georgina:
Dr. Orwell was a tall woman with blond hair pulled back from her head and fashioned into a tight, tight bun. (tmm)
esme:
in walked a tall, slender woman, also dressed in a pinstripe suit. (tee)
Officer Luciana was a very tall woman wearing big black boots, a blue coat with a shiny badge, and a motorcycle helmet with the visor pulled down to cover her eyes. (tvv)
a tall, skinny figure walking down the B aisle STOP. (thh)
jerome:
a tall man wearing a suit with long, narrow stripes down it. (tee)
hector:
A tall skinny man in rumpled overalls stood up from one of the folding chairs as the Chief of Police stepped off the platform with a lipsticked smile on. (tvv)
jacques:
He wasn’t as tall as Count Olaf, and he wasn’t quite as thin, and there wasn’t dirt under his fingernails, or a nasty and greedy look in his eyes. (tvv)
colette:
a tall skinny woman with curly hair squinting down at them, and in the third was a man with a very wrinkled face who was still asleep. (tcc)
denouement:
He was very tall and skinny, and his arms and legs stuck out at odd angles, as if he were made of drinking straws instead of flesh and bone. (tpp)
even the tall, skinny figure of either Frank or Ernest, who would occasionally rush by them on errands of his own. (tpp)
it was a man, tall and skinny, with his legs and arms sticking out at odd angles, as if he were made of drinking straws instead of flesh and bone. (tpp)
taxi driver from tpp:
the children felt a shadow over them, and looked up to see a tall, skinny figure standing over them. In the darkness the children could not see any of his features, only the glowing tip of a skinny cigarette in his mouth. (tpp)
sir:
The door of the sauna swung open, and Klaus saw a tall, dim figure step into the steam. (tpp)

So i gave the denouement triplets diffences to tell them apart when I draw them
Ernest denouement- Hidden Anger issues, burns from starting fires, autumn vibes.
Frank denouement- guilt isssues, eyebrow slit little scar from accidently falling in an abandoned place he was exploreing with friends, Summer vibes.
Dewey denouement- social cue issues, busted finger nails from a chair thats bottom wasnt correctly put on so he got up and tried to push his chair in and his fingers got caught between the wooden seat bottom and the metal legs, small eye bags from loseing track of time in the librarry, spring vibes.

OH MY GOD THIS IS SO TRUE AND THE MOST ACCURATE FAN THEORY EVER
The book’s cover
or “Some musings on the appearance of the Denouement brothers”
Re-reading the series as a medical student, there are some parts of ASOUE that stick out to me as interesting or just wrong medically and scientifically. I’ve talked about how Kit’s decision isn’t actually what it seems to be when you look at it with a scientific understanding. I haven’t thought that it was worth pointing out in a separate post so I’ll just say it here - Sunny’s allergic reaction to peppermints is impossible since she was never previously exposed to peppermints. Etc.
One of the things that I noticed while reading TPP was the rather unusual descriptions of the physical appearance of the Denouement brothers:

“This stays between us,” Ernest instructs his brother as Frank silently stitches the small but deep wound on his right side. “Seriously. Not even if Dewey asks.”
“I’ve never been accused of being a gossip,” Frank murmurs, finishing his work with surgeon-like precision.
“Come on, you owe me one.” Ernest nudges him with his boot. “That man thought I was you.”
“I always tell you not to do that,” Frank scowls. “You should have let me take the hit.”
“You would do the same for me. You have done the same for me.”
Frank drops the used needle into the tray beside his couch with a clank and a blank expression. “That was different,” he says. “I didn’t know the poison was in the sugar. I thought the violence would start after the tea.”
“You expect too much civility from your side,” Ernest tells him. “They were trying to kill either way. Why let someone finish their breakfast?”
“They were very polite.” Frank pours rubbing alcohol onto a cotton pad. “And J always…hey, do not scratch those stitches.”
“My associates just went for the gut.” Ernest winces at the burning sensation of the alcohol. “Didn’t take much of a look at me.”
Frank stares at him. He’s got the kind of stare that goes right through a person.
“What?”
“You’re upset,” Frank states.
“Alright, Captain Empathy.” Ernest rolls his eyes. “I scratched the stitches and it hurt, just get on with telling me off.”
“That would probably make both of us feel better,” Frank agrees. “But I’m asking you why anyway.”
“If you’d been the one who got stabbed, you’d have clammed up until the end of time,” Ernest says bitterly.
“We’re different people.” Frank puts down the cotton pad and folds his hands.
“I wish we were,” Ernest snaps, which he doesn’t mean to say at all, but his side is burning and a not-insignificant amount of his blood is on the floor.
Frank just nods. He doesn’t need any further explanation.
“Do you remember when we were little?” Ernest asks finally. “Before…before everything. And I cried because we all got different colour scarves for our birthday and I wanted red like yours?”
“So we’d match.” Frank smiles a little. “Yours was green.”
“And Dewey’s was yellow.” Ernest nods. “But Father sat us down and he told us that he didn’t want us to just be identical triplets our whole lives. He wanted us all to be as different as we could possibly be. That’s the only memory I have of him.”
“I remember,” Frank’s voice is soft. “I don’t think they ever mixed us up once.”
“I hate that they believed I was you so easily,” he says. Then, “No offence.”
Frank snorts.
“They don’t see a single tell,” he continues. “We’re one person on two sides. Where do you draw the line? What’s me, and what’s me pretending to be you? And what’s me pretending to be you pretending to be me? Are we both just pretending to be a manager?”
“Ernest.” Frank holds out a hand. “Stop.”
“Sorry.” Ernest shakes his head. “Too sincere for you?”
“I read the files on our parents,” Frank says quietly.
Ernest stills. Dewey had handed them each a copy of VFD’s records of their parents some years ago. He hadn’t been able to bring himself to read them, and neither had Ernest. He had been under the impression that Frank had never touched them either. The last he was aware, none of them knew a single thing about their parents beyond blurry, unreliable memories.
“How is that relevant?” Ernest says at last.
“Because…” Frank considers his words. “I looked at all these photos. I read people’s accounts of meeting them. Letters they wrote, diary entries. Even their school reports.”
“And?”
“And I’m nothing like them.” Frank smiles grimly. “I’m too neurotic, I was too clingy at school, I don’t laugh much. Our mother loved sesame and I’m allergic. Our father couldn’t focus on anything, but I can’t put something down until it’s finished. And they seemed so fun.”
“Where is this going?”
“Let me finish.” Frank huffs. “Our father questioned everything. He made trouble every single day at school, but it was because he had the strongest sense of justice any of those teachers had ever seen. He was charming and funny and he loved the sauna. He was a terrible dancer but a great singer. He wanted to be a cowboy when he was little.”
“Frank.” He can feel a dam starting to crack, something swelling to bursting in his chest.
“You’re not me,” Frank says sternly but gently. “You’re our father’s son. And that man is so loved and so missed. Which I’m told he would have been cocky about.”
Ernest laughs a little shakily.
Later, when he returns to his own room to rest, he finds a photo tucked into the pages of the book on his nightstand.
The man in it has a squarer jaw and darker hair, but the smile that looks back at him is like staring in a mirror.

Personally, Matching Set Denouements, Full Collection Quagmires.
The Quagmires even moreso if you have a straight, a gay, and a bi and a cis, a trans, and a nonbinary.
trying to decide if it’s funnier for all three of the denouements to be bisexual or for them to be straight, bisexual, and gay respectively

some sbg males height:
denouements: 6'5 (195cm). they joke about how they could easily pick up people and take them away, but they never do it. well, except frank pre-canon. frank sometimes has the need to intervene fights; he will pick up one the two brawlers and drag their ass away. also: despite having limbs like 'straws', they're quite strong.
olaf: 6'4 (193cm). olaf came from a family of tall people, so it's no surprise that he grew up to be tall also. olaf likes his height, especially back in happier days when olaf was dating kit. kit had a habit of pulling him down to her level (usually by the tie or collar) so she can kiss him. olaf had no qualms with it.
jacques: 6'1 (185cm). jacques is the tallest of his siblings, and incidentally, this is the same height as their father (kit and lemony are on the shorter side). jacques is threaten by his shorter associates to get kick in the shins, which only happened twice (beatrice and r due to being angry at him at different occasions).
widdershins: 6'0 (183cm). widdershins wouldn't be this tall if he wasn't part of vfd. it's a mix of his genes from his father's side and growing up in a environment that allowed him to be healthy and strong. he's also a bit stocky (fat and muscle), and it's something widdershins feels insecure about (and got dieting books for).
gregor: 5'11 (180cm). the tallest of the anwhistles, gregor's stocky build and his personality doesn't help the illusion he's taller than he appears. gregor wears shoes that does give him an inch of height, but he doesn't want to be taller than 6'0. gregor actually reached his full height in his teen years before he stop growing.
ike: 5'10 (178cm). the funny thing is that ike was the shortest anwhistle as a child, and he had the baby fat to match (he was a rather chubby child). when ike reach puberty, he grew like a beanstalk (and also lost his baby fat and chubbiness). ike had a field day being taller than hector until hector pushed him to the ground.
hector: 5'7 or 5'8 (170cm or 172.7cm). hector's biological family is full of short people, with his father's height (the same as hector's) is consider tall. hector is tall by short people's standards (re: the baudelaires in tvv). hector is okay with his height now, but back then he wasn't. he didn't regret pushing ike to the ground.
#ramblings#headcanons#book verse#denouement triplets#count olaf#jacques snicket#captain widdershins#gregor anwhistle#ike anwhistle#hector asoue#hector#some characters i'm still thinking of. these are the set ones#the widdershins height is an updated headcanon i made some time ago

There is a cluster of people hovering around the front desk of the hotel when Jacques arrives, and both managers are mostly hidden by the many visitors vying for their attention. Jacques takes his time wandering over, pinching an abandoned newspaper and posting himself at the side of the front desk. He scans a few articles as he waits for the crowd to die down.
"What can I help you with today, J?"
Jacques looks up a few minutes later to find that the burst of activity in the lobby has faded. One of the managers stands at the end of the front desk, grinning back at him.
"Hello, Ernest."
His gaze slides over Ernest's shoulder, to where the other manager has just sent a family off to their room, and is turning to face Jacques as well.
"And hello..." says Jacques, raising his eyebrow, "Frank."
Dewey almost hides his laugh, before moving smoothly back into his practiced air of professionalism. He turns away to answer a ringing phone, leaving Jacques with only Ernest and Ernest's poorly disguised amusement.
"This is rather inconvenient," says Jacques, folding his newspaper, "as I was hoping to see your brother."
"My brother is right here," replies Ernest, with immense delight. "I'm sure his phone call will only take a minute. Unless it's something I can do for you instead?"
He leans in over the desk, one hand toying with the cuff of Jacques' shirt. It would be a more convincing ploy if he didn't look like he was seconds away from laughing out loud. Jacques puts his hand on top of Ernest's, pressing down to stop his wandering fingers.
"I think this may be a job that Frank will want to see to personally," he says, purposefully low and suggestive.
Ernest does laugh then, yanking his hand away from Jacques and swatting at his shoulder.
"That," he says, producing a key from behind the desk, "doesn't narrow down the possibilities. Though I'd wager you land a little higher in priority than say, pruning the lobby plants. He's in his office."
He dangles the key between them on one finger.
"Higher than the plants!" Jacques says, winking as he takes the key. "Careful, Ernest, or I might think you're flirting with me."

Consider: trans male Denouement triplets who originally developed the habit of hiding which triplet they were not because they actually wanted to keep their identity secret, but because they hated their deadnames and no one could call them by them if they didn't even know which person it was. By the time they had names they actually liked, they were stuck in the habit.
Also come on, the idea of Frank picking his name and Ernest going "I know the most annoying name I could pick now that would make people confuse us even more." Like I know the Snicketverse has weird names, but those make a lot more sense if they chose them and not their parents. Also like, yes, the librarian absolute chose to name himself Dewey. He didn't just happen to be born with a fitting name.
It would make it easier to hide Dewey, too. "Oh, our third triplet? Well she's cis, so she left the VFD because she couldn't exactly pretend to be us anymore."
This makes way too much sense for an idea I literally only had because I was thinking over a fic in my head and was like "I don't wanna write PIV sex this time. What if I just transed Ernest?"

another fall is upon us! another woevember is coming!!
what is it?
woevember is an asoue fanwork event week, that will take place from november 10th through november 16th, 2024. every day of the week is dedicated to a different part of a series of unfortunate events or all the wrong questions for you to create something about! this year's theme is objects!
what do i do?
the prompts will be revealed now, so everyone has time to make something. between now and the week of november 10th, you’ll create fanworks about the prompts, and then post it on the corresponding day during november 10th - 16th! there will be the occasional countdown post between then and now too, so we all know how many days are left until posting begins.
don’t forget to tag this tumblr (asouefanworkevent) in the post so i can find it and reblog it, and tag the post with #woevember !
what do you mean by fanwork?
everything! fanfic and fanart are of course allowed, but woevember has always been meant to be an event that is as big or as little effort as you want! fanwork also means edits, gifs, analysis posts, headcanons!! your cosplay!! your photography!! your photosets!! your web weaving!! your moodboards!! your super short fics!! your sketchiest drawings!! your most ramble-y half-fic idea posts!! your wip scenes!! you merely saying ‘lemony snicket, though. am i right?????’ (and you are. you’re so right.) your loving macaroni art!! your embroidery!! your sculpture!! whatever you are moved to make from the prompts! i want people to be encouraged to and be able to create even something small that didn’t exist before for the snicketverse, and share it with other people!
are there any rules?
to keep the event open and comfortable for everyone, no explicit content. also, as always, sibling romance and age gaps will not be tolerated.
do i have to make something for every day?
only if you want to! feel free to just make something for one day if you want :) the point of having a different theme for each day is so some part of canon that you like comes up eventually, and you can at least make something for one of the days. or you get struck by an idea you might not have considered before! i want to get people thinking about all the intriguing things in asoue and atwq and the exciting, different ways we can interpret and create from the same idea.
what are the prompts?
the description under each prompt is just some ideas to get your brain going – feel free to take them in another direction too! whatever you want to come up with!!
november 10th - violet's inventions
the grappling hook! the toaster in the clock! the rock retrieval device! the bobblehead train stopper! even just lockpicking, and violet's ribbon, too! what else do you think violet has made, pre-canon or during canon? what does she make now? post-canon, does she have a job that relates to inventing? does she still invent in her spare time?
november 11th - the sugar bowl
the mysterious sugar bowl! lives have been lost in the quest to find it and it's important to both the snickets and the baudelaires, so says esme. where is it now? what was its importance? what was inside it? where was it during canon, before canon? who has had it before? did anyone have it before esme? what does it look like? how does it keep its contents safe? when was it first used? did it make it to the hotel denouement? is anyone still searching for it? what if it wasn't stolen?
november 12th - disguises
both the firestarters and the firefighters have used disguises --the same disguises, supplied by vfd. what other kinds of disguises have each side used, and for what ends? was a disguise ever seen through at the wrong time, or the right time? was a disguise ever NOT seen through when it should have been? even the disguises beatrice wore when she acted on stage, or the cow disguise worn by jacques snicket, or the denouement triplets pretending to be each other, what does it mean to wear a disguise and what do you do when you wear one? do the baudelaires, or the quagmires, ever wear disguises again? do frank and ernest ever pretend to be each other post-canon?
november 13th - the bombinating beast
our beloved statue the size of a milk bottle, valued upwards of a great deal of money! where do you think it is now? what did lemony do with it when he left stain'd-by-the-sea? who used it before canon? do the baudelaires ever encounter it? does it make its way back to stain'd-by-the-sea? and where is the bombinating beast itself now?
november 14th - books
lemony's a series of unfortunate events books do, after all, exist in asoue canon itself! what does vfd think of the books? who's read them? or books like the unauthorized autobiography, and the beatrice letters, and lemony's childrens books, what place might they have in canon? for all the wrong questions, who's read them? they were filed at vfd headquarters, after all. how many members of vfd know what lemony did during his apprenticeship? or books like caviar: salty jewel of the tasty sea, or stain'd myths, or lemony's pamphlets on the accordion, or even the classic children's lit books, like the ramona series by beverly cleary, and their place inside canon and especially vfd? or even beatrice and bertrand's a series of unfortunate events, the journal they contribute to on the island. who else has written in that journal?
november 15th - the duchess of winnipeg's ring
the ring that went from the duchess, to lemony, to beatrice, to back to lemony, to kit, to bertrand, to beatrice, to the box she kept it in, to widdershins as he searched the ruins of the baudelaire mansion, to ishmael when it washed up on the island, to violet, and to the second beatrice, who traded it to a shepherd for a yak ride. what other adventures has it been on? does the duchess ever get it back again? why did beatrice keep it in a box -- a box that kit's grandfather made the code for? what has the rest of the duchess' family done with it? what does it mean to them?
november 16th - free space!
do you have another object in mind? the spyglass, one of klaus's books, or sunny's meals, or the harpoon gun, or ellington's record player, or cleo's chemistry equipment, or something like the medusoid mycelium? the laudanum? all the things esme says are in or out? the baudelaire fortune? the quagmire sapphires? the fabled tito puente records? the ruins of the baudelaire mansion and what else might be there? all those objects mrs. bass had her students measure? jake hix's meals? cleo's car, or the bellerophon taxi? the vfd taxi? gustav's films, or the sebald code? violet's bread knife? kit's book raft? commonplace books? do you want to combine any of these objects with one of the previous days and create something with two objects for one of the previous days? so many options!! or do you care not for objects! use the free space to write about the item or character or relationship or thought or whatever of your choosing! feel free to pick a theme from a previous woevember event for the free space, if you'd like!
if you have any questions about anything, feel free to drop me an ask or a message!
happy creating, and i hope to see lots of you november 10th-16th!! ✨
