Antoine carried Zelda all the way up the creaking stairs and down the hall until they found a door ajar into a large, but shabby bedroom. He set her down softly on the floor as the two of them silently looked around the space that was to be their new home.
There were vestiges of warmth even alongside the dilapidation; furniture and keepsakes of the previous inhabitants sat forgotten amidst the ravages of time and the harsh desert landscape. Still the linens were fresh and there was a single jar of flowers left for them by Giorgio.
Zelda looked toward Antoine with a wry smile, seemingly unbothered by their new surroundings, “It’s not quite the gilded palace of your youth, is it?”
Antoine returned the good natured teasing with a smile of his own, before throwing off his jacket and gently pushing her toward the bed.
Already growing breathless Zelda tried to continue, “What’s a man with more robes than me to do here? One with more shoes than books? Does he give up the fine trappings of city life to become a simple farmer?”
By that point her wedding dress was already over her head and crumpled on the floor, “I don’t care Zelda, they can take it all. I don’t want any of it.”
“No? None…none of it, Mr. Duplanchier? Why’s that?”
“Because you weren’t my wife in that palace. But even if this house crumbles into the sand around us,” his voice trailed off as he buried himself in Zelda’s coiffed hair, “You’re my wife here.”
She reached down to help him with the last of his buttons and looked up to meet his eyes, all good natured teasing settled into a silent tension. Antoine cupped her chin in his hand before pushing her down onto the bed.

#tumblr woke up today and chose violence against me personally#also my personal style evokes the 1930/40s sometimes and that's about it there is nothing victorian in there#if you don't know fashion history that's fine but like... this comment has over a 200 year contradiction with itself#and is even further off given the era I *do* dress from#compliment accepted but lord the psychic damage

A few of the photos from the Paul and India interview in this month’s DWM, plus a couple of snippets:
#i’m not going to post the whole thing because mags need sales to survive#but these two#i want more charley alone with the doctor#they work together so well they don’t need gooseberries like audacity#paul mcgann#india fisher#doctor who#eighth doctor#8th doctor#charley pollard#big finish#the stuff of legend live#doctor who magazine#i do wish they’d given us more from the photoshoot#but what we’ve got is great#though the lighting in that second photo makes it look as though paul has a black eye#i removed the text from the first one#“audio casual”#“define ‘had’”#i would have loved to watch this interview#but once again i want to yell from the rooftops that charley is not edwardian!!#edward vii had been dead for two years when she was born#it still bugs the hell out of me that they refer to her as edwardian#and as she’s from 1930 india would have looked a bit out of place in an edwardian outfit#a flapper dress or something would have been a bit more appropriate#and it wouldn’t have rustled so much#anyway

bit of an insane request but i love your au a lot and im hoping you have one palestinian-american character in it! im palestinian and i have family in america who have been there since the 1910/1920s. im unsure if you have any arab characters, but i suppose itd be fun?
I actually do have a character planned. Doctor Whooves is gonna be a Palestinian engineer and scientist who immigrated to America.
#this has been planned since last year actually#because i told myself i don't wanna make doctor whooves a white doctor who-looking twink#so i thought 11th doctor. fezes. he should wear a fez. he should be arab. my first thought was turkish but i've changed that since#especially relevant now as fezes were symbols of resistance against zionism in the 1930s. which is when the au also takes place in#ask me#anon#if you're curious to the planned races of the background six:#doctor whooves is palestinian; derpy is of polish descent; octavia is indian; vinyl scratch is albino black american;#lyra is a greek jew; bon bon is french/senegalese

why are PJO characters most consistently measured in scales of Michaels?
Like. this is some of the most specific height information we have out of most characters, besides maybe Percy being an inch shorter than Jason. The Michaels Scale...
#pjo#riordanverse#nico di angelo#michael kahale#michael yew#clarisse la rue#this is some of the most specific numbers we get#also for the record i did the math and inferring based on multiple factors#(average height of a 13 year old boy / average height in 1930s italy)#so implications are: a.) Nico is absolutely never gonna break 5'6''. he is probably 5'2'' at best in HoO#and b.) presuming that. the math does add up that in comparison Michael Kahale is about 5'8'' which would put him at ~50lb heavier than Nic#with the *generous* estimate that Nico is like 120lb. which is average for 5'2''#but knowing that Nico weighs like. Nothing. he is Skin and Bones. lets guesstimate that Nico is 120 soaking wet. hes probably closer to 110#i do too much math for these books. anyways enjoy that. wiki i want the heights updated with sources on my desk by tomorrow /j

The Sammy Lawrence Art I mentioned in another post!
I literally can't stop drawing him guys, send help 😭 😭 He's such a fascinating character to me, like I need to stick this guy under a microscope and write a 10 page dissertation him. The ink got to him guys. It called to him.
Like, he's an asshole but a lot of it wasn't his fault. He deserved better.
(Design of Sammy heavily based on the Escape AU by @inkdemonapologist!!) (I hope you don't mind the ping, or me taking inspiration from your designs. He's so fun to draw, I love it)
#sammy lawrence#bendy and the ink machine#Fanart#my art#batim#I'm like 98% sure he has autism but it's the 1930's so he hasn't been diagnosed obvi#I'm new to the fandom!! Idk how I ended up here in the year 2024 but yaknow we have fun#tw religious themes#Should I put that? It's Sammy I feel like it's a given#How to tag this I do not know

What a difference 90 years makes juxtaposition of Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantiс, 1934 & Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 57 One of One, 2024. A one-off Chiron has been created that references the classic Type 57SC Atlantiс, an icon of the 1930s. The car has been commissioned as a 70th birthday present for a woman whose husband is also a Bugatti owner. She wanted her car to be a tribute to the Type 57SC Atlantiс and worked with Jascha Straub, Lead Designer Sur Mesure at Bugatti, to make her vision a reality
#Bugatti#Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantiс#Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 57 One of One#Bugatti Chiron Super Sport#1934#2024#tribute car#hyper car#1930s style#one off#one of one#Bugatti Type 57#what a difference#90th anniversary#90 years
