Here, take it!

A plot buny multiplied in my brain and I was forced to establish my own seperated au. I call it D4.

Dapper Duo: Draxum & Donnie

While Lou jitsu was escaping with the baby turtle tots he accidentally dropped donnie. Whoops 🤗

Draxum noticed that and made his way over to the dropped lil turtle. Just as he picked up the cutie disaster struck. The part of the lab they were standing in contained some explosive chemicals. During the whole collapse the chemicals went off 💥 BOOM 💥

Draxum daddy shielded dontron with his body though both were still heavily injured. But it was while Draxum was holding on for dear life, making sure they weren't buried under rubble that he took the time to really look at his creation. What he saw was a child. Not a weapon. Not a warrior. But a small frightened and crying child.

Draxum doesn't heal completely from the accident. He's on strict orders to not fight any longer. Instead of going against doctor's order he spends the extra time he has taking care of his new child. Aka: good dad Draxum.

He almost never wears his armour anymore. Most days he's stays in his sleepwear. Sleepy sheep man

Donnie is basically the same as in Canon except a lot more eccentric, thanks to Uncle Huginn and Munnin. He's also really into cats (for years, he was convinced that his dad was a cat. No one could convince him differently.) And not so much into eyebrows. Huh, imagine that.

They like watching the battle nexus together. Donnie's fav is an uprising challenger called Usagi. First time he saw him he declared that he wanted to 'befriend the murderous bunny!', to his dad's amusement. (Years later Donnie introduces his first friend to Leo)

D4 donnie also has Draxum's eyes. No one knows why.

Court of Darkness: Consort Nicknames (The Sequel)

Another collection of random nicknames for CoD consorts and why!

Part One Nicknames for Consorts: LINK

GUY - Avari Jafari

Guy’s ancient magic kinda reminds me of Jafar from Disney’s Aladdin with both men being able to control people with glowing red eyes and their disdain for idiots. Also, both men have that lovely propensity to see women as objects to use for power (YES, Guy gets better about that, but **** his attitude annoys me).

GRAYSON - Fifty Shades of Neigh

Grayson looks quite dapper in his grey coat and his wannabe Emo vibe as he diligently attends to his Invidian charges and beloved Nox. And behind closed doors? Oomph 🤭

@magicjesuscup Your Stallion nickname is perfection. Also, OOMPH 🐎 😘

LOU - Shady Chaos Man

Let’s see…you’re part of an underground group with nefarious intentions, you have the ability to magically c*** block most princes in their book one spicy endings, and you’re a bit of a trickster by heart. If that’s not shady chaos man, I dunno what is. ???

JASPER - The Walking Corpse 🧟‍♂️

Your book one makes me want to punch you and wipe that smug smile off your face. Also, your complexion plus dark hair kinda make you look like a legit corpse (though, to be honest, all of these consorts are pretty darn pale…come on boys, go out in the sun once in a while!).

DIA - Sharp Tart

This beautiful man has quite the sharp mouth on him. But beneath the prickly exterior is a sweet man who offers very good insights and thoughtful analysis in events where the MC is inevitability befuddled, lost, or clueless.

KNIGHT - Whiskers

Besides his love for cats, Knight has a heightened awareness of various senses like hearing and smell. When he’s engaging in using those super senses, I have the image of a cat twitching its ears or wiggling its whiskers and it’s pretty cute to envision 🐱

LANCE - Iran Shrek

OK, here me out. I think Lance has a fair amount in common with Dreamwork’s Shrek the ogre. Both want to keep to themselves, grumble a lot, and like being in nature/the woods. But beneath the surly exterior is someone who values peace, quiet, and is quite heroic when the situation calls for it. Plus, Lance’s speech patterns in CoD make me think he’s got a Scottish accent like Shrek.

Another interview for Better

A witty, no-nonsense policewoman faces off against a charismatic but chilling villain in crime-filled Yorkshire. You can see why Better might fill a Happy Valley-sized hole when it starts tonight on BBC1.

That, probably, is where the similarities end because Lou and Col, the central pair in the new series, have a very different relationship from Catherine Cawood and Tommy Lee Royce in Happy Valley. For a start they actually like each other. Lou (Leila Farzad, aka Suzie’s manager in I Hate Suzie) is a high-ranking cop in Leeds, while Col, played by Andrew Buchan — who was the grieving father Mark Latimer in Broadchurch and Matt Hancock in This England — is the dapper Northern Irish head of a drug-dealing network.

Not a typical friendship, then, but they’ve been scratching each other’s backs for 19 years, rising to the top in their respective fields. The five-parter by Jonathan Brackley and Sam Vincent (Humans, Spooks) is moody and stylish with flashes of gallows humour. In the first episode Col invites Lou to his birthday dinner, telling the guests: “I’ve made it to another birthday in a challenging line of work.” Col and Lou sneak off for a fag. “I would not be here today without you,” he tells her. “Same here,” she replies. Their loyalty to each other is about to be challenged.Better is “a character-driven morality piece about redemption”, Buchan says over Zoom from a café near his home in Buckinghamshire. “And two characters who’ve made some very particular choices that slowly start unravelling. They’re both landlocked in a sense but just can’t get out.”It is, he adds, “nothing like Happy Valley”, although he understands why people might wonder.

The night before we speak he was at a screening in Leeds, where the show is set and shot. “One of the questions from the audience was about how people are going to naturally draw comparisons with Happy Valley. But in the future, hopefully, when a million more shows are being made up there, you wouldn’t need to draw comparisons.”Shows such as the one Buchan, 43, has just written, Passenger, which we’ll get to later. He is a proud northerner, having grown up in Bolton and married a fellow Lancastrian, Amy Nuttall, who played Chloe Atkinson in Coronation Street and Ethel the maid in Downton Abbey, with whom he has a child.

He used to excel at what he calls “everymen going through a crisis”, from Mark in Broadchurch, whose son is killed, to a former soldier accused of murder in The Fixer. These days he brings similar nuance to less ordinary — and richer — types: the millionaire scion John Paul Getty Jr in All the Money in the World; Andrew Parker Bowles, husband of Camilla, in The Crown; Felim Bichan, a financial player in Industry. SKY UKHis character in Better is loaded and powerful with an Ulster accent to boot, while the London-born Farzad, whom he describes as “a force”, does a Yorkshire one. Both sound pretty impressive to these poncey southern ears. Col’s accent was inspired by the Belfast-raised actor Jamie Dornan. “I bumped into him in a lift in London and we had this little brief chat,” Buchan says. “It’s such an amazing accent. I was walking along, quietly doing impersonations of Jamie Dornan to myself.

”When Buchan was first offered the role, “I was, like, ‘God no. He’s got to be 68 with a loose tooth and a gold chain. I’m not that guy.’ ” The director told him that they wanted someone a bit more charming. “He’s quite calm and careful and considered. He’s not a psychopath. But when people press his buttons he can go places.” Col’s lavish modernist house, filmed in Harrogate, “was a wee bit ridiculous”, Buchan says. Harrogate’s posh, isn’t it? “To us Boltonians it definitely is.”

He got closer to privilege when reading modern languages at Durham University and studying at Rada, where he was in the same year as Tom Hiddleston and Andrea Riseborough.Buchan also starred in the political drama Party Animals with Riseborough, whose recent Oscar nomination has been criticised after she benefited from celebrity cheerleaders including Gwyneth Paltrow and Kate Winslet. “All I know is that she’s a phenomenal actress,” Buchan says. “My initial reaction to her being nominated was ‘about time’.

”Playing Hancock was “interesting”, he says, but he won’t be drawn on a political judgment. This England went quite easy on the former health secretary but Buchan “could only play what was on the page”, although he admits he must have “subliminally” incorporated his impressions of a man he had seen on TV daily during the pandemic.Well, it worked — his performance was eerily persuasive. He won’t say what he thinks of Hancock doing I’m a Celebrity but he raves about Kenneth Branagh’s take on Boris Johnson. “I’ve worked with some witty folk in my time, but Ken’s ad libs are off the scale.”

We talk about The Crown, in which he starred with Josh O’Connor and Emerald Fennell (“whose careers have nosedived obviously since then”, he says wryly), and All the Money in the World, where Christopher Plummer famously replaced Kevin Spacey as John Paul Getty Sr after Spacey was accused of sexual misconduct.Filmed in Rome, it was a taste of movie opulence that Buchan hadn’t had before. He compares it with The Fixer in 2008: “We filmed it in Lewisham, in minus 2C, covered in fake blood, in a vest and it was all quite unpleasant. So, to shoot in Rome!” For the reshoots he was flown back out on a private jet with Plummer, Michelle Williams and Ridley Scott, the director. “I think I was the only one who’d never been on a private jet before.”

Plummer handled the cast and crew with panache, he says, which was hard “when you’ve got 20,000 people in between takes saying, ‘Can you do Edelweiss?’ ” Plummer and Spacey had “very different takes” on the role, the father of Buchan’s character. “Christopher grabbed my hand really tightly and smiled at me with this twinkle in his eye, which was really unnerving. Whereas Kevin was the complete opposite.” More in character? “Yeah, whereas Christopher kind of played against it.”

His big ambition is to do more comedy. When he was playing the 18th-century lawyer William Garrow in Garrow’s Law he had long chats about it with his co-star, Alun Armstrong. “Al said, ‘The problem is that good comedies are as rare as rocking horse shit.’

”Buchan has found a neat way around that problem — writing his own show for ITV. Passenger is a horror comedy set in a small village called Chadder Vale in Lancashire. “We start filming in five days’ time, which is quite frightening,” he says. He won’t be acting in it but he has written all six episodes.“I’m on a bit of a hamster wheel at the minute, churning them out. When you can hear the execs barking at you, ‘We need, we need, we need . . . ’ you think, ‘I’m just going to treat that as white noise.’ ” The series will feature a former Met policewoman called Riya Ajunwa investigating a series of unnatural crimes including the abduction of a local girl. Dark, funny, female cop, set in the north — it’s all the rage, you know.

Jean Lou may have been an excellent craftsman, an expert in perms and Brazilian smoothing, but his salon wasn't likely to be full... Who could trust a hairdresser who was so bad at puns?

this one is complicated to translate: in France hair salons are known to use puns in their names, it's even a national sport. For example, many salons are called ephem'hair (a pun on ephemere and "hair") but Jean Lou made a mistake and put tif, which is a French slang word for hair, so his pun falls flat, and he is no longer a credible hairdresser.

Lark and Sparrow were ABSOLUTELY those kids who opened the windows during a car wash. they did it every single time. henry kept having talks with them about how that's not nice to the car and the people who have to go in and fix it and they're gonna get all wet and they simply. Do not listen. every time. every time it happens. they convince him that they've changed and then immediately open the windows again. whenever henry tries to hold them down when mercedes is driving they bite him so so so so so so hard.

My #1 post of 2022

thinking ab the baby ninja being attracted to their elements and the ppl who raised them knowing ab it

Like Kai and Nya's village knew their parents, so it makes sense to them that Nya learns how to swim before she learns how to walk, and that Kai is so interested in blacksmithing and how they have to keep him away from candles. Lou putting up with Cole digging holes in the backyard and coming in covered in mud. Julien thinking Zane is just being all roboty when he wants to sit outside during a snowstorm, or want the air conditioning to be on. Even Lloyd being drawn to brighter lit areas at Darkleys.

Meanwhile, Ed and Edna have NO idea why their baby keeps wanting to electrocute himself, how he keeps undoing the safety measures they put on the plugs, why he keeps sticking wires in his mouth, and why he gives them a static shock every other time they pick him up
