“Welcome,” cries Donna Noble, “to the Sad Time Lords Drinking Society!”

The beach stretches as far as the eye can see. There seems to be nobody else on it. The sand is black; Jack has discovered it is rough beneath the toes, like gravel. The sea is a rich and iridescent blue; the sky above it clear and serene. A breeze ruffles the thatched roof of the bar at which they are all seated. From the radio behind the counter issue the tinny strains of a zither.

“I move to rename the society,” says the Doctor. He’s a tall, skinny man in a pin-striped suit and an outlandish pair of shoes, who looks like he stuck his fingers in a plug socket and still hasn’t burned off the energy. He and Donna emerged from a blue edifice labelled POLICE BOX, which is now sitting modestly on the beach next to Miss Fisher’s TARDIS, once more a Hispano-Suiza. Miss Fisher has introduced the Doctor as “my oldest friend, literally, he’s got a century or so on me”. 

“Quite,” says Miss Fisher, “we are hardly sad - I am always merry, for one - and only one of us identifies as a Time Lord at present.”

“And he is not sad,” puts in the Doctor.

“Rubbish,” says Donna. “Get a couple of drinks in you and you’ll be all mopey again.” 

“Anyway,” says the Doctor. He is sipping a complex cocktail out of a coconut, too violently coloured to actually be from the coconut, through a twisty straw. “To business. Present: the Doctor, tenth incarnation; the Fisher, third - honestly, how are you only on your third one?”

“Clean and virtuous living,” says Miss Fisher demurely over her sidecar.

Mac snorts into her glass. “Hallelujah.”

“Companions,” the Doctor continues dictating minutes to an invisible secretary, “Donna Noble - ” Donna makes a mock-bow “ - Dr MacMillan, good-looking, ginger and an actual doctor, I hope my future regenerations are taking note - ”

“I’m flattered,” says Mac. “I think.”

“ - and Detective Inspector Jack Robinson, whose first time it is at the Drinking Society of Time Persons of Various Moods and Genders.” The Doctor beams at him. “When did she pick you up from, then?”

“The 1920s,” says Jack.

“Oh, we just went, didn’t we, Donna? Lovely time.”

“I mean, there was a murder,” says Donna. “Quite a few murders, actually. Also, a giant wasp. Oh, and the Doctor got poisoned.”

“And we met Agatha Christie!” exclaims the Doctor. ���Great stuff.”

“Yes,” says Jack. “That sounds exactly like what goes on in the 1920s.”

That soft smile 🫠

Shouldn’t you be clapping me in irons? Too much paperwork.

[latenight-panic]

That's it that's the plot.

[archibald-jones]

Thinking once again about Jack and Phryne and the end of 'Raisins and Almonds'. About how much meaning there is in that conversation.

Especially those last two lines.

"A marriage is still a marriage, Miss Fisher" - Jack knows something is developing between them but he needs to make sure she knows that there's a line he won't cross. He needs her to respect that

"Especially to a man of honour" - Phryne's response in assurance that she will. They haven't known each other long but she understands him.

And I feel like after that conversation they're a lot more comfortable with each other and with the relationship that's developing. Because they both know where they stand. For me, that scene is the first acknowledgement that *something* is happening.

god, miss fisher's murder mysteries was so good. what do y'all know about yearning if you don't know the honourable miss phryne fisher and detective inspector jack robinson.

Reasons I think Miss Fisher and Inspector Robinson will probably get married sooner or later:

1. It’s the 1930s.

You can be the most modern woman in the world in love with the most modern man in the world, but unless you also want to have the most modern life in the world (which they don’t seem to. They want to maintain their positions in society where she can push for women’s rights and they can solve crimes together) you will eventually have to flex to world you live in. And in the 1930s, that means that if they want people to acknowledge their relationship, it has to be a marriage. 

We see in S3 a bit of what their life might look like if they don’t, because multiple people assume them to be a couple. Sure, Jack is probably high ranking enough that he won’t lose his job and divorced enough that he can probably get away with having a mistress, and Phryne doesn’t give a fig what anyone thinks of her as long as it doesn’t get in the way of her doing her thing, but eventually it’s going to start to grind that they have a relationship that no one outside their immediate chosen family will acknowledge openly. Suspects may try to use it against them (like Angela Barnes in Game, Set and Murder) or to appeal to them (like Eric Edwards in Death and Hysteria), but that’s as far as acknowledgement is going to go. Jack will be invited to Phryne’s intimate parties, and possibly Aunt P’s, but he won’t be her plus one to any public events that don’t require a police presence. If anything happens to them, the other will be acknowledged as a good friend, like Mac was in Death by Misadventure. And Phryne has a lot of friends in that situation, enough to know what it looks like outside of an accepting and understanding intimate friendship group. They will spend their relationship treading a fine line of how much acceptance they can demand before it becomes too much and compromises their lives, at which point they will come back to the same choice - marry, or end it.

They may well decide that it was fun while it lasted, but they’d rather walk away. I doubt it, but it’s possible. I’m not sure I can see them going back to being just friends at this stage, and I don’t think it would help. The rumours will persist unless they cut off all contact, and probably Phryne leaves Melbourne completely. They are both demonstrative, affectionate people. Maintaining a secret relationship would be unpleasant, maintaining a friendship when they’re still in love would be awful.

Personally, I think that Phryne is softening on the position of marriage. She’s always understood why other people marry, but not how it could apply to her. Jack is different, but she’s also incredibly pragmatic. Marriage is not going to change her, but it can protect her. The one thing she does not want is for people to believe she has married purely to avoid a scandal. Not for her sake, because she doesn’t give a damn what people think of her, but because of how that reflects on Jack. If they do marry, it will be the biggest social event of the decade, and she will make people acknowledge that she has married ‘below her station’ and done so for love.

And if the Chief Commissioner thinks that it’s going to mean she leaves his crime scenes alone, he can whistle.

Because at the end of the day, she might now be Mrs Phryne Robinson (and surely one of the perks of marrying is getting rid of her father’s name), but she’s still the Honourable Miss Phryne Fisher and she will kick you from here to Darwin if you look at her husband wrong.

2. At some point the Fleurie sisters are going to present Phryne with a vague concept for a wedding gown for her and she is going to lose her mind over it.

Concern, disbelief and exasperation!

You might as well get used to those feelings Jack.
