The Giggle Thoughts

Naturally, spoilers ahead

- Honestly I was very excited for the Toymaker's return. The whole concept was beautiful

- Mel, my beloved, I'm so glad you're home

- My understanding of the Toymaker's effect on humanity was that it brought out what they thought (hence the always being right issue). So Kate going off at everyone, more what she said than how she said it, was weird since I thought it was kinda their deepest thoughts coming to light, not just a bit of ableism or ginger conspiracy

- Though her fear of the Doctor is valid. You know, since he’s an alien that always seems to come out on top. Well, almost always

- MEL!! (I'm glad they had a solo Mel & Doctor interaction)

- I felt 14 was needlessly aggressive towards humanity? Just flat out insulting humanity out of nowhere? That was weird to me. If it was built up? Fine. But it just appeared

- Catherine Tate is amazing the whole way through. She always nails it. Much love to her

- The Toymaker's shop folding up just reminded me of Dan's house I'm sorry-

- LMAO THE SPICE GIRLS SCENE. We love a man who can make an entrance

- 14's regeneration, Mel and Donna reassuring him and insisting to be by his side? Immaculate. Bi-generation? Not so much.

- Unpopular(?) opinion but they keep giving the Doctor lore that I can only think to describe as main character syndrome. With 13, Chibbers tried to tell us that the Doctor is actually the only one who had regenerative abilities and it was extracted from them and bestowed upon other Gallifreyans to make them Time Lords (I will not stop talking about how this makes so sense in regards to the last 60 years of Doctor Who. (Also no hate to 13 I love her so much she deserves better))

- But yeah, giving the Doctor the Timeless Child lore and now this, something that is supposedly a myth? It feels very much like a child stacking a bunch of powers onto their character to make them seem all important

- Don't get me wrong, bi-generation is an awesome concept. Just... don't give it to the Doctor. Please.

- Wait is 14 commando?

- Ncuti was brilliant, though I wished he was treated more like the Doctor than a side character. He is now the Doctor, after all.

- The end of the Toymaker felt... a little anticlimactic

- I THOUGHT 14 AND 15 WERE GONNA KISS THAT SCARED ME

- 15 and Donna really told 14 to get help lmao. They know he's not okay

- The mention of Adric and Sarah Jane broke my heart

- The concept of two Doctors and Two Tardis' is... not sitting well with me. They need to let Tennant go. I can't stress enough how much this concept makes me want to peel off my own skin and burn it.

- Okay, also potentially unpopular opinion, but the rule of show, don't tell? I feel like they abandoned that with the wheelchair ramp scene.

- Have y'all seen that Sonic Boom clip where Knuckles is like "Actually Amy, stating that a woman doing this is abnormal solidifies the idea that it's abnormal because you're making it seem like it's a great achievement that will only be done once"... or something like that? Yeah, some of the inclusitivity felt like they were making a big deal of something that should be... normal? Like, you could have Shirley just enter the Tardis. You get the message across that hey, the Tardis is now wheelchair accessible, without being so on the nose.

- Despite everything, the slice of life at the end with 14, the Noble family and Mel was beautiful. The Doctor is finally healing

Overall, I enjoyed the episode, there were good bits, and not so good bits, and of course things I would like to have done differently. It started off really strong but gradually got weaker, and it felt like there was a better resolution than what we got, and the bi-generation should not have happened, at least not to the Doctor. Of course my opinions are neither right or wrong, for they are opinions, and I'm willing to see the opposing side to my views and even be challenged.

I feel like I'm being mean so thank you Russel and the Doctor Who team for bringing us these three episodes, they have been a joy to watch.

Also I praised Ncuti and Catherine, expressed my love for Bonnie, but I didn’t give props to Tennant. He really is great

#doctor who #david tennant #catherine tate #ncuti gatwa #14th doctor #15th doctor #fourteenth doctor #fifteenth doctor #the giggle #wild blue yonder #star beast #doctor who spoilers #doctor who sixtieth

I will update this frequently, as I am always either getting into new things or remembering things I already love. I am mostly dedicated to OFMD right now, but you may also leave requests for other fandoms and I will keep them on file, or who knows, perhaps even get to them sooner than you may imagine! Have a wonderful day (or night!), and don't forget to request!

yours truly,

lavinia

listening to music and suddenly struck by the curiosity, what kind of music would 1930s beatrice & wod beatrice like to listen to? and what kind of music would 1930s & wod ava like to listen to as well?

Ok, so for WoD it's gonna be reaaallyyy hard to be objective. Ava definitely listens to Nick Cave (since she does in the fic, and because it's a nod to the film). I can picture her playing some of his stuff for Beatrice and Beatrice absolutely hating it. But then she puts on PJ Harvey and Bea's like "hmmm that isn't entirely unpleasant." (again, these are my own preferences bleeding in)

Bea would definitely go through the motions of having a heavy Hozier phase. She listens to whatever Ava puts on but makes sure to note down every song that stands out to her. Ava listens to a lot of disco 1000000% (this is me being totally absolutely undoubtedly objective) so Donna Summer, Boney M. etc etc. I think Bea would lean slightly more towards Steely Dan-type music simply because I think it would be hilarious and that is reason enough. (I'm taking this very seriously.) I'd like to think Ava introduces Beatrice to the wonders of Sade (early and late because Sade can do no wrong), but also infects Beatrice with a grudging love of TOTO. (Georgy Peorgy my beloved).

Honestly irdk for WoD because its so modern that it's hard not to just list all my favourite musicians. But I think they'd listen to a lot of the tunes on my companion playlist. You get to decide who would be more into what songs I guess...

For the 30s AU however...

Beatrice was defintielyyyy classically trained in piano and maybe a string instrument (I'm gonna go with Cello) and played Bach, Brahms, Chopin, etc etc, but, in her own way, rebelled and pissed off her parents by playing a lot of Schoenberg (atonality babeey!!!). Even later when she no longer spoke to her parents she got into Shostakovich because she knew they'd hate his music. I do think she'd appreciate choral music though (explanations to come in future chapters... ah, her tenuous relationship with religion) e.g. Hildegard Von Bingen and Thomas Tallis.

For Ava: Rumba!!! I went through a particularly... intense rumba phase a year or two ago during exam szn and got super into it. I listened to a lot of Lecuona Cuban Boys and they started up in the 30s so the time period checks out. In the fic I mention Ava working in America for a bit, so she was definitely in America in the 20s and you know what that means... Jazz!! I don't think she'd be too specific with what she liked tbh. If it sounded good, that's all that mattered.

#sorry it took me so long to answer this oops #1930s au #misiek asks #warrior nun

I've started a class on US history ( particularly around the colonization ) and it's fascinating! Do you have any period you would recommend to look more into?

You picked an interesting time to ask me about US history, through absolutely no fault of your own! (I haven't studied US history since high school, and my AP US History teacher has spent the last 20 or so years in jail for, uh... having relationships with little boys that were 100% NOT OKAY. And I recently found out he's out of prison and has been attempting to track down some of the boys involved [who are all now in their 30s and 40s]. I only know because one is one of my old roommates, and he was dating my best friend, and... well. I saw his name on the list and was just like "okay, this has to be a parole violation of some sort. Also, dude, what the actual fuck?! Several of the boys you hurt later committed suicide. One was found dead by his little sister and her best friend. They were nine. Nine years old. You are a fucking monster. Jesus christ.")

Aside from that... I'm not super well-versed in US history as a whole, but I have enjoyed some books dealing with it, so okay if I mention those? I particularly loved A People's History of the United States (Howard Zinn) and Lies My Teacher Told Me (James Loewen), both of which were seminal in presenting less "whitewashed" versions of US history. I've also enjoyed in recent years The Warmth of Other Suns by Isabel Wilkerson (about the disapora of Black Americans from the Southeast into the Midwest during the 20th century), The American West and Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, both by Dee Brown (classics of the expansion of settlers into the West in the 19th century, the "cowboy" years), and White Trash by Nancy Isenberg (looking at class in America). Other good, popular writers of US history: David McCullough, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Ron Chernow, Candice Millard. There's some awesome fiction that tackles US history in interesting ways - my favorites are A Tree Grows in Brooklyn (Betty Smith), The Little Friend (Donna Tartt), Forever (Pete Hamill), The Jungle (Upton Sinclair), and basically anything by Steinbeck.

I find the great migration periods particularly interesting, especially the Asian arrivals in the West in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Early Hollywood is fascinating. There's a wonderful book about it called Silent Stars by Jeanine Basinger. The US also has some honest really good classics in True Crime, especially Truman Capote's In Cold Blood and Norman Mailer's The Executioner's Song. (Truman Capote is also interesting in that he was a very good friend of Harper Lee, who wrote To Kill a Mockingbird.) There were some writers in the mid-20th century who took travel writing and turned it on its head: try Travels with Charley (Steinbeck again!), On the Road (Jack Kerouac - not my personal style, but I understand why it's an American classic!), and Roughing It (Mark Twain). (Honestly, all of Twain's stuff is great, and fucking hilarious. Twain and Wodehouse - in England - had no business being as brilliantly hilarious as they were.)

Also, a weirder rec?

Stephen King's 11/22/63.

Just trust me. And yes, it's that Stephen King.

Again: trust me.

(Other fictional creepiness built around or dealing with North American history [I say North American because I'm including Canada and Mexico]: Alma Katsu's The Hunger, Dan Simmons' The Terror, Silvia Moreno-Garcia's Mexican Gothic [and I just got her Velvet was the Night, but haven't read it yet!], Toni Morrison's Beloved, basically anything by Cormac McCarthy. [Content warning, some of these are a little stomach-churning to get through. Reader beware!] I've also recently been recommended S. Craig Zahler's Westerns, but haven't read them yet, so be warned there that he's the guy who wrote Bone Tomahawk! If you know... you know. If you don't... not recommended viewing while eating. 🤷‍♀️ And speaking of Westerns, Larry McMurtry's Lonesome Dove is absolutely wonderful. And not stomach-churning!)

Hope that helps! If there are any specific periods that catch your interest, I can dig into recommendations for further reading/watching. US history isn't always my personal cup of tea, but my mother's been writing books and articles about it for 30 years, so I can always ask for recs! 😁

Doctor Who Power of the Doctor thoughts before I forget (SPOILERS)

- OMG okay so finally a Doctor who episode this era that I actually really liked. There's others but they've usually been ruined in hindsight. This one wasn't perfect but it was pretty good and it wasn't ruined and the Doctor and the companions finally felt more 3d than they had in previous episodes.

- Dan leaving first 10 mins of the episode was so odd tho

- Daleks, Cybermen AND the master??? This is ambitious

- TEAGAN AND ACE!!! I'm not even a classic whovian, I havent watched the show pre 2005 but I was still like AHHHH OMG THEM!!

- Always good to see Kate again as well

- The Rasputin scene was genuinely so funny. I love Sacha Dawan as the master anyway and this was just the cherry on top

- was the episode rushed??? Yes but I do think the actual implication of character depth was so much better than what we've had for so long that I actually left that episode feeling satisfied but like this would have been perfect for Yaz and the doctor to have a couple of arguments I.e. the doctor rushing and not letting people into her plan and also about the Doctor leaving people behind

- A bit odd that Graham showed up with no explanation but okay

- Omg the doctor AI taking the form of Teagan and Ace's doctors and having a chat and giving them closure was so good. Like when AI!5 called Teagan Braveheart and Ace and AI!6 patched things up between them made me get a bit emotional

- doctors bickering in the consciousness was funny and in character

- I liked seeing Vinder and Jo Martin's Doctor back!

- the forced regeneration plot was so-so but it did the job so I liked it

- I was hoping for a more heroic end I guess instead of the master just blasting the doctor at the end but the regeneration actually pulled on my heartstrings so much. Which is a feat because I never really connected to 13 or the companions (mainly to do with a lack of character depth and conflict and actual interpersonal relationship building) but seeing Yaz in tears but trying to hold it together and the Doctor being angry and upset first but then calming down for yaz and them just spending their last moments together watching Earth eating ice cream was so *chef's kiss*

- The support group scene actually made me so emotional, when Jo Grant popped up on my screen, my eyes were defo pricking, and it just made me think of how much I missed Sarah Jane as well

- the Doctor regenerating into 10. I'm excited to see David again, he was my fav, he will always be my fav, MY Doctor but I hope he doesn't stay for too long. Doctor who NEEDS newness, it's intrinsic to the show, it would not make sense at all to go back to the old just because it was popular. So I hope there's a cracking 60th with David and Catherine (DONNA MY BELOVED!!!) and then new season! New Doctor! RTD back!

#doctor who #doctor who spoilers #v makes a post #v clears out her drafts #v watches x

i need your brilliant mind to cheer me up (if you have time and/or want) and give me your best canon show ending with dan-wasnt-gossip-girl but dair are actually final endgame afterward headcanons

Oh dear friend I would be happy to share. I’m sort of robbing peter to pay paul with these because I do have a fic idea that I want to plug these into eventually but I am absolutely happy to share them now 🤍🤍🤍

Okay so post canon, but Dan isn’t GG are the rules yes? So let’s see what I can do. Cheering up is the endgame I promise but ya can’t reckon with the canon omelet without breaking some angst eggs.

Also this will be pushing my personal agendas of musicians!Humphreys and dilf!Dan — and bi!Dan but that’s like, canon to me, so.

Like most dair writers out there, I think derena implode on their own shortly after the wedding. Dan Humphrey may be a born liar, but just because he’s good at it doesn’t mean he likes it. He hates feeling like he’s living a lie. It was easier somehow, when the wedding was upcoming, to lose himself in the story Serena was trying to tell, and it was a good one. But in the After, when the dust settles, he feels…hollow. Lying makes him hollow, and acting like she’s the settle-down-and-marry kind makes Serena hollow, too.

He ends it, but she leaves first, hopping off to parts unknown with Carter Baizen on her arm.

Dan goes to London, and crashes on his sister’s couch because he’s trying to break his own habits of relapse (asking Serena to take him back, falling into bed with Georgina). Jenny screens his calls and gives him something to do: write songs with her. (They both say that it’s not and never will be their day jobs, but Jenny’s always written the same way their mom has always written, because it’s good for her mental health and good mental health focuses what she calls her “real art.” During one of the mini-breakups between Blair’s 2nd wedding and his own, Rufus got Dan work as a studio session musician to pay the bills (play in the accompanying band, etc.) He’s good and reliable on keys and guitar, and something about playing what other people write helps him get out of his blocks.

He gives what help he can, including throwing her some stuff that was languishing in his old journals that hadn’t seen the light of day, and Jen, in between freelancing lines, puts out a respectable EP, and convinces him (he calls it bullying) to write more with her.

Blair meanwhile, cuts Dan out and off, his annulment makes it easy. She wasn’t sure, in the run up to the wedding, if she could stand him being married to her best friend, she was convinced that the more they were in each other’s presence, the more she was in danger of falling off the precipice of her marriage. So when Serena calls her from Antigua, all Blair feels is relief.

But relief fades, and she misses her friend. Both of them, but it’s more often than not Dan she’s looking for when she needs to make eye contact at yet another ridiculous thing said at whatever event of the week she’s at. It’s Dan she wants to talk to about the last movie she saw that didn’t begin with a lamp jumping on the letter “I.” It’s Dan she wants to ask for advice when she’s drowning at Waldorf Designs because she can’t keep up.

She’s on a ledge, all the time, and when she finally has to say something about work to Chuck he says quit. So they can have another baby. (obviously chip is deep dark and manipulative and there’s way more shit going on but this is supposed to be cheery so we’ll just leave it at that for now)

It’s then that she starts to think about leaving, really leaving.

She’d thought that if she ever did, Dan would be there, but he’s even less of an option now than when he was Serena’s. Because even if he wanted her now, Serena would always blame Blair for her marriage falling apart. But Dan isn’t around, the last she remembers hearing about him is that he was dating some Canadian indie musician. Blair thinks she may have been the only one genuinely unsurprised at the fact that said musician was a guy.

Dan’s not there, but Nate is.

She and Henry become Nate’s roommates, in the small UWS apartment Nate rents, not the red herring of a hotel penthouse that keeps the Spectator bloodhounds off his heels. Nate gives her a safe place to be once the papers are served, and they take inspiration from each other. He from her for cutting Chuck out of her life for good this time, and her from him, for going back to school and finishing. She hands in her resignation to Waldorf Designs and Nate blocks every form of contact he and Chuck have.

Blair does her best on her own, with Nate and Dorota’s help (and Cyrus’ legal help), but it’s still hard, to keep up with classes at NYU and her toddler, and one day she gets home to see Jenny in her apartment.

Jenny and Nate are pals, and Jen’s in the city because when Blair left her position, Eleanor put up the metaphorical bat signal, and since her capsule collection was so well-received—and still coveted by fashionistas—Jen was offered an interim position.

Jenny and Henry get along pretty well, actually, and Jenny is self-actualized enough not to hold his parentage against him, and not to hold too much of Blair’s past against her, though she suspects it’s only out of respect for Nate.

They clear the air one night, while Dorota has Henry, on Nate’s balcony, passing a joint between them.

“I told myself I wouldn’t say anything until you ask about him,” Jenny says. “But you never do.”

“Maybe I’m afraid of the answer,” Blair replies. She knows Dan and Nate are close friends, but she hasn’t asked him anything either, for the same reason, Nate can see right through her, and she wasn’t ready for that.

After that, Blair finds through thorough browsing Jenny’s social media that Dan moved to an apartment in Chelsea, that he evidently seems to share with Jenny now she’s in the city, that he plays music, that he appears in a lot of the covers Jenny shares online, and that they have an album slated for release in a few weeks.

She finds a performance of Jenny on a late night talk show, and she watches, because Dan isn’t in the thumbnail so she thinks it’s safe. It’s pretty good actually.

Life goes on. Blair’s divorce is finalized. At Cyrus’ and Nate’s advice, she holds nothing back in her depositions, and as such gets full custody of her son. The relief is so palpable Blair locks herself in a bathroom in the courthouse and cries.

Jenny continues to hang around at her pal Nate’s apartment, but it’s kind of…okay? She’ll crash in at the end of the day with takeout, interrupting Nate and Blair reading for classes, she’ll joke with Nate and Henry and pick Blair’s brain for advice on Waldorf Designs.

One night after Henry’s asleep and she’s had just enough red wine to make her brave, she tries watching one of Dan’s performances posted to Jenny’s feed. It’s a cover of “Chelsea Morning” and it makes Blair smile because she has memories of him singing Joni Mitchell in the loft, and one day while they were together the weather was dreary and neither of them felt like going anywhere and he pulled an LP off the shelf and declared it a “Blue Day” and they lay on the rug and listened to the whole album. And it’s…that thing of when you hear the voice of someone you cherish for the first time in a long while and it hits you how much you miss it in your everyday? It’s that.

But she can’t keep living in the past, she has to get Henry enroled in preschool and herself enrolled in her last year of college plus figure out just what she wants to do with her life.

One day Jenny calls her. “Okay so you know I hate asking for favors from you but if you were to ask, well, anyone, they would say that you probably own me a billion.”

So, Blair goes. Jenny and her work is being photographed for a feature in Vogue, and her coordinator backed out, and there’s actually not that many people in this world that Jenny trusts with her vision, but Blair is (begrudgingly) one of them.

So, Blair steps in, interfacing with the photographer, and the Vogue team, which is headed up by … *drumroll* Epperly Lawrence!

Epperly casually mentions at the end of the day that she’s glad Blair is back in this line of work, because she was always good at it. And that gets Blair thinking…

Nate cheerfully accuses Dan of never coming around anymore, but Nate knows damn well the reason why.

Not that he resents Nate for being there for Blair, maybe he resents that he couldn’t be.

He’s still writing, but prose is slow going. Songwriting though…He likes cowriting with Jen. She’s never precious with him, will tell him when something doesn’t work so that shen she says something is good, he believes her. They have to hold Rufus at arm’s length to curb his enthusiasm, because neither of them expect it to last, this music thing, but they have to see it through. But, with Rufus’ permission, he takes some of his dad’s half-finished songs and completes them, and the end up on the record. The record is a hodge podge really, of Jenny’s writing and his writing and Rufus’ all it coming together in something that actually resembles a record. It’s helpful, having a place to put words that he wasn’t able to get out in another medium. Jenny reads his lyrics, and he knows just by the sideways glance she gives that she knows who they’re about, but doesn’t say anything.

They’ve worked together. Jenny told him because she isn’t precious with him, but she also seems like she’s waiting for him to ask. He can’t let himself.

The record comes out eventually, and it’s good. It feels good to have something collaborative, it’s much harder to hate it after it comes out, unlike the books with only his name on the cover.

They’ve been gigging in the city, half of their stuff, half covers, and that plus the album plus their name recognition (plus his connections from working for a studio for so many years, Jenny tries to tell him) gets them an offer to play as an opener on a similar sounding acts tour.

Dan’s always thought he wouldn’t be the type. Rufus’ over-romanticized stories have kind of put him off, but he can tell Jen wants to do it. She’s felt too chained to Waldorf Designs as of late and is chomping at the bit for an artistic palate cleanser. And it’s not like there is anything keeping him here in New York.

At Epperly’s encouragement, Blair starts putting herself out there professionally again, applying everywhere, because she’s not that attached to New York, there’s little to keep her here. And, miraculously enough, she gets an offer from Vogue Paris. It’s a demotion anyway you look at it compared to her last job, but it’s earned. And hers. She can move to Paris, Henry can grow up bilingual and in a city where he isn’t Chuck Bass’ son. (Bass Industries goes under after the divorce. Apparently the financial strain and bad press was too much for him to take).

She starts putting the plans in motion, and Nate starts making some of his own. With Dan’s help, he’s been applying to graduate programs for social work, “And while I hate the idea of even more school, I really want to do this.” And before that, he’s taking the post graduation sailing trip of his dreams. Blair worries, the way she always does, that Henry’s gotten too used to having Nate around, that she’s gotten to used to having him around. But it’s time for her to move on. “If you ever need me,” Nate promises, “I’m there.”

During her last week in NYC, Nate persuades her to let Dorota take Henry for the night and come out with him to the show Jenny’s playing before she leaves on tour. She’d given Eleanor her notice with a long list of vetted replacements, but Eleanor still bemoans her misfortune to Blair over the phone. Blair had only nodded along, half listening while coloring with Henry. Waldorf Designs is not her ship to save anymore.

So they go. It’s a retrospective sort of thing, with Lincoln Hawk as one of its main centerpieces. She spots Lily in the crowd, because of course those two couldn’t stay away from each other very long. And, during the set, both Dan and Jenny come onstage.

It’s something to watch. The Dan she knows is never comfortable in the spotlight, he shifts away from it, or tries to reflect it back onto someone else. On stage, behind the mic and a guitar in his hands, it’s like he wraps the music around himself. It’s not about him, it’s about the story.

Nate takes them to the stage door after the show, and he and Jenny disappear into the night shortly after, which means Blair is left to her own devices, and so is Dan.

“Walk me home?” she asks, suddenly shy.

He says yes.

She loses count of how many blocks, but they walk the whole way, from the club on the Lower East Side, to her old penthouse that she’s helping her mom close up and prepare to sell before leaving for France.

They take their time, going slowly, and talking about…everything.

Henry is the first thing he asks about, and they go from there.

She talks about her new job, and he talks about his musical moonlighting. They touch on their respective divorces, but they’re both on the other side of it now.

Eventually though, they get to her door. And because she has nothing to lose and everything to gain, she kisses him, and all those years, all that time between the last just falls away.

“So, Dan, are you coming upstairs, or what?”

“Blair,” he sighs, “I’m going on tour tomorrow.”

“I’m moving to France in three days!”

He laughs, and when she grabs his hand and leads him forward, he follows.

The next few months go by, Dan tours, Blair settles in to her new job and helps Henry settle into his new life in Paris. He loves his new school, and the language he picks up quickly in the way only small kids can.

Dan sends her postcards from every stop, the constraints of the format keep him from saying too much too fast. He sometimes shares stories from the road, like when in Nashville, he breaks a string midsong during an acoustic set and drops out completely from laughing too hard, leaving Jenny on her own and causing her to go “What the fuck, dude?” as soon as she finishes. Sometimes he doesn’t talk about the tour at all, writing about the years they were strangers to each other.

Blair pressures Nate into getting an email address so she can send him replies. They go on like that, his card and her emails, until he wraps the tour back in NYC.

A few weeks after his last postcard, Blair is out on her favorite weekly ritual, her Thursday lunchtime visit to Musee D’Orsay. She’s been systematically showing Henry all of her favorite places, but with him in kindergarten, this midday trip is something she sets aside just for her.

She can trace the path to her favorite gallery on autopilot now, but when she gets there, someone is already standing in front of the painting, blocking most of Manet’s work from her view.

She would know him anywhere, even with his back turned. She knows him from the set of his shoulders and the curl of his hair, and the stillness of his figure, like he was part of the art himself.

He perks up at the sound of her heels clicking on the marble floor, walking into the rest of her life. And when he turns to look over his shoulder, oh, she cannot stop her smile.

Dan gets his own place in Paris at first, a tiny studio walkup in the 6th. “Left bank,” Blair snorts, “figures.” He wanted to give Henry time to actually get to know him, since he was a baby when Dan last knew him, but Dan is still around all the time, cooking meals, accompanying the Waldorfs on Blair’s trips to show Henry her Paris, which becomes showing Henry and Dan her Paris. He sublets the tiny studio after 3 months. They’d waited enough.

They get married at Harold and Roman’s vineyard in the summer. It’s small, quiet. Lily and Rufus fly in and rent a property a few kilometers away for the weekend, Eleanor and Cyrus plan to drive up from Paris on the day, and Nate and Jenny tumble in a few days prior from their respective landing places—Nate from Berkeley, Jenny from Tokyo.

Dan and Nate and Roman lead Henry in kicking a football around on the grounds, and the quiet, ever-present guilt she can’t help but have—that she’s kept her son from having a father—fizzles and fades away. Because Henry has Dan, and hope balloons in Blair’s chest that her son isn’t destined to be broken and break others in return. She’s relieved, so relieved that she’s…nauseous?

Jenny’s the one that finds her slumped on the floor of her father’s tastefully decorated guest bathroom. Maybe it’s some remnant of feminine solidarity, or that they’ll legally be family in less than 24 hours, or maybe after all this time Jenny Humphrey really is her friend, because Jen slips out and to the city and back on a crucial errand.

Blair toys with the idea of waiting until tomorrow, to make it “special,” but it already is, special. So before he goes to stay the night in the carriage house (because Daniel Humphrey had to have some kind of tradition for his wedding), she tells him she’s pregnant. And tells him that she wanted to tell him now, when they’re like this, because she loves him like this and tomorrow isn’t going to make them more of a family than they already are, or change how happy she is about this now.

He so cries.

On the next day, after they sign the marriage license, Dan signs the adoption papers that make Henry his. Though if you were to ask, Dan would say it’s him that belongs to Henry.

They don’t say anything about the pregnancy ntil a few weeks later, but Jenny catches Dan sipping on Blair’s champagne all night with raised eyebrows.

Serena doesn’t come, but she calls while Blair is getting ready, and three months later, she sends the most expensive and designer baby basket money can buy.

Apart from his absolutely terrible French, Dan takes to his life as Parisian house husband very well. He calls it his Julia Child, Alice Toklas phase. Blair still sometimes has to remind herself that she doesn’t need to guard Henry so jealously anymore, that Dan’s here for him as much as he is for her.

Many a time, though, Henry will be telling him a story and get so excited that he goes too fast and forgets what language he’s speaking, and Dan will have to stop him and say “Henry, honey, en Anglais, please.”

“Does it bother you?” Dan asks after Lizzie Waldorf-Humphrey is born, “That she can’t run for president?”

“Nah,” Blair says sleepily, “She’s a Supreme Court justice all the way.”

One day when Blair’s organizing her home office, she stumbles across their high school senior yearbook. She ignores most pages, too many of them with the potential to hurt, but sends a picture to Serena of the page of the two of them, which Serena hearts immediately.

She pads down the hall and into Dan’s office, the door open so he can keep one eye in Henry in the living room, Lizzie asleep on the sofa.

“So this was your plan all along?” she asks as she saunters in. “The American writer in Paris?”

It takes him a minute to come out of his head and back to her, but he always comes back. He blinks at the book in her hands for a moment until his eyes light up in recognition, the rest of his face lighting up with a laugh.

He reaches out a hand, tugging her to him. “This,” he says, in that heart-stirringly sincere way only he gets, “is so beyond what I ever could have planned.”

She slips onto his lap, and he holds her close, the both of them knowing this quiet will only last so long, and then Lizzie will wake up and Henry will barrel in with a question and a follow up and the cat is somewhere in the house about to knock something over. Never completely peaceful nor perfect but wholly, entirely worth it.
