Fetching Scarlett

(just the beginning of) a one-shot that lies in Scarlett & Hennessy's future

The fuel pump of his rental 2018 Range Rover gave up the ghost just shy of eight kilometers from his destination--the Scottish village of Stormeil Na Mara, a scant five kilometers as the crow flies, from the storm-tossed Atlantic Ocean. Hennessy let loose a salty string of bitter profanities at the outrageous inconvenience of having to trek the final leg of his quest on foot. Of course Scarlett’s home village was so far off the grid (nearly two hours drive from Edinburgh Airport) that mobile reception was almost non-existent. He could only hope the wee fishing and farming burgh had some alternate form of communication with the wider world. He didn’t fancy the idea of being stranded there any longer than absolutely necessary to reclaim his wayward lassie. Surely his willingness to leave his cherished Caribbean clime and the comforts of the world he had built for himself, to travel to this dismal, godforsaken countryside should be proof enough that indeed he loved her. That she had--unwittingly or not--won her way deep into his normally thorny heart, making him break every self-made rule regarding romantic entanglements, which he had abided by for nearly two decades.

Yes, Scarlett’s gentle, loving ways, coupled with the well of heady passion within her--which he alone had ever had the privilege of plumbing--had turned him more than monogamus. Had shown him he could trust in another human soul to see his weaknesses yet never scorn him for them. Had proven that she saw a light in him that he had believed was extinguished long ago, trusting in him without hesitation from their beginning and sincerely loving him unconditionally. Late as he was in coming to this realization, Hennessy finally understood that Scarlett was his pearl of great price--and that no cost was too high to win her back into his life.

Resigned to the road ahead, he quickly gathered a few essentials from his luggage, along with his bottled water, to pack into his leather tote, and donned the heavy wool sweater he had purchased at an airport boutique that catered to tourists desiring to immerse themselves in the trite trappings of Gaelic culture. As Hennessy’s designer wardrobe featured only hot weather garb, in this case it was a necessity. Plus, it might very well make the difference in him catching a ride from a local croftsman heading in his direction. As his usual good luck would have it, he traversed less than two kilometers before a lift materialized.

The farmer wasn’t a talker beyond a few rudimentary questions in a brogue so thick Hennessy barely understood him. They got along well enough for Henns to make clear he was seeking the Campbell cottage, home of Mrs. Aileen Campell (he’d had a stuttering moment when he couldn’t recall Scarlett’s mum’s name, but finally managed it when he set his mind’s eye to the way the sunlight streaming through the transom window lit his bonnie lover like a halo of gold about her sex-tousled raven locks, as she sat wrapped in his silk sheet at the foot of his bed, revealing some quiet detail of the strict life she’d lived as a teen beneath her mother’s roof). The man had grunted with a nod, telling him he could drop him as near to there as the road would take him, but he’d still have a twenty-minute walk at least, to reach the shoreside bothie. Their rough conversation lapsed from there, until the farmer dropped Hennessy off those twenty minutes from his destination, telling him to head northwest and when he saw the shore off to his right, he’d be nearly there.

Doggedly determined as he strode across the long grass towards his goal, he could smell the Sea before he saw it--and as always, nearness to the source of his vitality and power, granted Hennessy the invigoration needed to speed his pace afoot.

Coming over a thistle-covered hill, he paused when he saw the white capped waves beating upon the sand, and drew a deep, deep breath, a full understanding of the source of his Scarlett’s fundamental relationship with the Sea, dawning upon him. Though these waters would always run in her blood, they had taught her a healthy fear of the treacherous, untrustworthy northern seas. Her gentle nature was far better suited to the warm embrace of sunshine seawaters, as was his own...

(I'd love to hear from anyone still following this story ~ although I can't reply directly, as my main blog still dwells in shadowban prison)

i can’t stop thinking about that one midge campbell line where she’s rehearsing her script and she asks her lover to remember her as a blur in the rearview mirror.

thinking about how it must feel for jones to hear that line after he loses conrad in an automobile accident.

all the ways in which conrad speaks anew in the mouths of his characters, communicating in all sorts of unexpected ways. and how much that hurts jones.

#i’m thinking my asteroid city thoughts i’m sorry #but oh god i can’t stop thinking my asteroid city thoughts #wes anderson popped off with this screenplay #wes anderson #asteroid city #conrad earp #augie steenbeck #jones hall #mercedes ford #midge campbell #jason schwartzman #edward norton #scarlett johansson #film

STARMAN - A. STEENBECK

Auggie Steenbeck x reader

Part one of ????

Part two https://www.tumblr.com/coolgal5/738210108662775808/starman-a-steenbeck

(GN reader, we need more auggie on this app)

You had wanted to be an astronomer since you were younger. You had always had an affinity for outer space and even more so you loved the unknown. Something about trying to find the answers to things nobody had ever known had always been the best to you. So when one of your closer colleagues, Dr. Hickenlooper, invited you to travel with her to a Jr. Stargazers convention you knew you had to go.

Asteroid city was familiar to you, you had grown up in a nearby town. You however had never seen it this packed before. School children, parents, cowboys, military men, you even noticed a movie star. You were staying with Dr. Hickenlooper for the most part of the trip but after you guys had unpacked at the motel she was pulled away by someone to work on preparing stuff for later in the day. This left you on your own for about half an hour. You recalled seeing a small diner on your way into town and you figured you should probably eat something.

You waltzed into the diner and glanced around. There was a few tables spread around and a bar. You thought about where you should sit when you noticed someone familiar. Midge Campbell, the film actress sitting at the end of the bar. You walked over, pulling out the seat beside her and sat down.

“Pardon me, Midge Campbell?” You spoke softly as to not startle her

“oh yes hello?” She quickly replied, glaring at you through the thin frames of her glasses.

You offer out your hand for her to shake.

“Hello! I’m familiar with some of your work and it’s very good, you’re very talented.”

She smiled lightly, seeming to ease up.

“Oh yes thank you. I’m glad you think s-“

She was cut off by a snapping sound from the other end of the bar causing the three of you to snap your heads around to the cause of the sound.

A man sat there, around his early forties with who you assumed was his son.

“You took a picture of us” Midge spoke, glaring at him as if he was something she had found on the bottom of her shoes.

“Mhm” He nodded.

As you looked at him you began to think to yourself. You noticed he was REALLY attractive. He had messy hair and a scruffy beard that was patchier than a pair of old jeans but he seemed to pull it off WAY too well.

“Why?” Midge continued to interrogate the man.

“I’m a photographer” Even the way he spoke was attractive, the way he seemed so sure of himself and you found your cheeks heating up at the thought.

“You didn’t ask permission”

“I never ask permission”

“Why not?”

“Because I work in trenches, battle fields and combat zones.”

“Really?” “Mhm”

“You mean you’re a war photographer?” You chimed in.

“I sometimes cover sporting events, my name is Auggie Steenbeck.”

“What will you do with it?”

“I’ll probably try and sell it to a magazine now that you mention it, Midge Campbell and her friend, eating waffles.”

“Make us a print first, to approve”

You listened to the way midge spoke, she had a REALLY pretty voice. It felt really strange to see someone who you had only seen on the screen in real life.

Just then, the younger girl beside midge raised her hand.

“This is Dinah”

“This is Woodrow” Auggie stated, motioning towards the boy beside him.

“I have a question” Dinah finally spoke as Auggie nodded.

“Have you ever been shot? With bullets?”

“Have I ever-“ he chuckled lightly “Once or twice, just grazed”

“He got shrapnelled in the back of the head once, show her” Woodrow tipped in before Auggie turned around, revealing the mark on the back of his head.

Midge took a sip of her coffee before speaking again.

“I don’t say I forgive you yet by the way”

You all turned back to your food, but you continue glancing off to the side at Auggie

This was going to be a long two days.
