So Gerbert in ADOW is based on the man Gerbert of Aurilliac (Pope Sylvester II). The dude is credited as introducing the Arabic numerical system into Europe (the one we use today), re-introdicing the abacus and armillary sphere (old astronomical tool) to Europe, and inventing the first mechanical clock. Basically this French bishop-turned-pope was OBSESSED with learning things and traveled to Muslim Spain because he knew they knew things he didn't know and was DESPERATE to know them.

Meaning you could make an argument that the reason Gerbert wasn't really as huge of a villain in ADOW as Knox or Benjamin is because part of him kinda wanted to know what would happen. Part of his need to have The Book of Life could've been because he just wanted to know what it said for knowledge's sake.

Like he probably stops Diana after Council meetings like "What does the Book say about *insert topic here*?"

If I did have this book you speak of, why would I give it to you? A prying English spy and charlatan?

Matthew Goode's on-screen royal connections

There is a big royal event today or so I have been told so here is Matthew Goode in royally connected roles (some more tenuous than others, indulge me 🤣):

1) Antony Armstrong-Jones married a princess

2) King Sigismund of Hungary aka The Red Fox (but he was a bad'un)

3) Jeremy Hutchinson Queen's Counsel (that's a senior trial barrister in the UK)

4) Matthew Roydon, Queen Elizabeth I's shadow (spy)

5) Lady Mary and Henry Talbot looking beautiful for the ball given in honour of King George V and Queen Mary's visit at Downton.

SEASON 2 EPISODE 7

Princess Margaret Marries Antony Armstrong-Jones

May 6, 1960: After years of falling for a variety of “wrong” men, Princess Margaret meets the rakish Antony Armstrong-Jones (Matthew Goode), a one-time portrait photographer of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, at a dinner party in 1957. The two begin dating in secret almost immediately and upon unexpectedly receiving Elizabeth’s approval, they marry on May 6, 1960, in the first televised royal wedding at Westminster Abbey. Hurray for Margot!

On Set: When it came to styling Tony, costume designer Jane Petrie wanted him to be “a really cool, ’60s guy that Margaret would obviously be drawn to — a little bit dangerous, a little bit edgy, anti-establishment.” ♚

-The Crown: A Royal Timeline, Netflix Tudum

FOR WANT OF A NAIL

Part Fourty-Four

Summary: Baldwin Montclair had a string of ex girlfriends, a single child, and a lifetime longer than most people could dream of to make all kinds of mistakes. His family knew one which kept coming out of the woodwork to irritate him every other century

Also on AO3

It was cold in the chapel.

Weak sunlight filtered through the windows, contrasting with the torches in sconces on the walls to deepen the shadows between them. In the gloom, Martin sat with his back to the wall, torc in hand.

"-that God has so few friends; if that is the way he favours them, he ought to have still less."

Martin's laughter echoed back to himself. Across from him, on the opposite wall, Hugh's shield, armour and sword rested on a metal frame Matthew had sunk into the stone floor. The plaque beside it read

In Memoriam

Hugh de Clermont

Beloved Son

'I hope you like the flowers' said Martin. Carnations and forget-me-nots wreathed Hugh's shield and gauntlets; a reference to Fernando masked by double meaning. Underneath the real ones flowers made from iron held the figure up, like vines grasping each piece of the mannequin together.

It had been Martin's gift to Fernando, and one that had received a chilling response from Philippe until his need to grieve his son had outpaced his dislike for his son's choice of mate and he had let the matter go.

'Well!' Martin rocked up onto his feet, stretching. 'I had best walk to the main gate. Your father is throwing a party for no particular reason again and he will be ushering guests in shortly.'

The cold breeze that started from nowhere as he turned to leave felt like hands pressing gently on his back. Martin gave a small smile, and walked outside.

________________________________________________________________

'Lucius!'

'Still Baldwin.'

Baldwin chuckled affectionately as Martin shrugged.

Beautiful. Like music.

He went to sit on the bench next to Baldwin, who shuffled over to give him space.

'Have you been up to anything new of late?'

Baldwin shook his head. 'Much the same as ever, I am afraid.'

'You need a hobby,' said Martin, observing Baldwin over the rim of the tankard a passing serving girl had rushed over and placed in front of him. 'You know, I think you should get into finance.'

'Yes, the mighty desk warrior; earning honour and glory through paperwork.' Baldwin sneered.

Martin grinned, nursing the tankard and leaning forward.

'Let me tell you the story of the king from Mali with the Midas' touch...'

________________________________________________________________

Philippe had toured the room twice, mingling and talking with visitors and locals. When he made it back to the high table again he was annoyed to see Baldwin still sitting at the edge of the room, listening to Martin rambling on.

He had specifically requested one or two individuals be here today so Baldwin could gently persuade them to follow Philippe's plans.

Now that he had a moment to properly observe his son, Philippe could tell Baldwin was listening to Martin. Really listening. He was staring at him with a focus that Philippe hadn't seen before; there was a warmth in his gaze that went beyond fondness, and a slight suggestion that he could start smiling at any moment.

Oh.

Oh no.

A millennia of willpower was the only thing which stoppered the scream of white-hot fury clawing up Phillipe’s throat. He ground his teeth and hissed.

His boy, his second son, mating with a thrice-damned nuisance?!

Gaul.

Patricide.

Insipid meddler.

‘Somebody has caught up with the rest of us it would seem,’ Marthe muttered quietly as she passed by Philippe’s elbow. Ysabeau placed a hand on his to ground him and remind him where they were, and he let out a long, long breath.

‘All of you knew?!’ Philippe hissed.

'If you confront them, they will deny it and end up hurting each other. It will be better to let them come to a conclusion on their own.' Ysabeau squeezed his hand, and Philippe, reluctantly, squeezed hers back.

Author's Notes

The joke that Martin tells was recorded in Facetiae, a collection of jokes published in 1470, written by Poggio Bracciolini. This chapter takes place circa 1324, so the joke is not era-accurate, but I couldn't find one from the 1300s.

The full joke:

"One of our fellow citizens, a very witty man, was labouring under a painful and lengthy illness, was attended by a Friar who came to comfort him, and, among other words of solace, told him that God thus especially chastens those he loves, and inflicts his visitations upon them. “No wonder then,” retorted the sick man, “that God has so few friends; if that is the way he favours them, he ought to have still less.”" (Medievalists.net)

Canonically Matthew made a shrine to Hugh in the chapel of Sept Tours out of Hugh’s shield, gauntlets, hauberk, coat of plates, sword and helm. We see a plaque on the wall in the show, so I incorporated both.

Oh the screaming. The screaming that occured when Philippe found out about what Martin had made. Matthew was, is, and will probably still be on his father's shit list for the next few centuries for keeping Martin's gift a secret from him. But in the end the entire family banded together and told Philippe to "build a fucking bridge, we want to mourn our brother/son/father/significant other" and it's a reference to Hugh's home in Spain*, so what's the big deal?

*Fernando and Gallowglass nearly broke Martin's ribs hugging him.

Carnations are the national flower of Spain.

I think that it takes a lot of energy for a ghost to materialise into corporeal form. Vampires and daemons cannot see ghosts immediately but they can feel their touch; witches can, of course, see ghosts in full whether or not they are actively trying to be seen.

the discovery of witches is such a weird show, like the first season was easy to watch to some extent, and now I'm here, wondering how can they overextend their simplest scenes to last 3/4 of an episode and then turn around and make one epsiode where a character "falls in love" in 1 episode that's almost disconnected to the rest of the series and it's not addressed again for a few afterwards

also, Teresa Palmer and Matthew Goode have no chemistry, and/or the writers don't know how to write romance into the plot so every single scene where they are together feels like a forced reminder that this hundreds yo vampire and this 30-something witch are literally doing everything to change the world because, supposedly, they are in love with each other.

it's weird because it very much feels like the plot of twilight but for 30-somethings, and it's kinda disappointing BC nothing much changes? Like, their characterization might as well be teenage girl finds out her boyfriend is a vampire and Girlbosses her way through the plot. Which honestly, is not Teresa's fault bc I've seen her act and she's singlehandedly making this as realistic as this plot allows.

but even the plot, like why would you make a plot point of these two not buggering each other. She's 30 something, he's hundreds yo, this is some twilight plot line, some religious bs. (Which it already has a lot of.) You know what's even worse? They want to make you care that they have not consumated their marriage, THEY DONT EVEN HAVE SEXUAL TENSION.

Anyway, I'm gonna continue watching this.
