i really wish i had the motivation to write rn, because i have an idea for a post-canon Dracula fic where the characters have to deal with world war one. like, how do you even cope with thinking you saved all those lives, only for the entire western world to go to absolute shit just 20-ish years later? if only Bram Stoker had known what was coming.

anyway, i find it so interesting to consider what certain characters would do in that situation.

depending on when he was born, Quincey Jr could be just old enough to enlist or get drafted. or honestly, he might just want to be a hero like his parents, and lie about his age. and let's be real, that boy has some latent vampire powers that would give him an edge.

Jonathan has good survival instincts, an ear for languages, and the ability and willingness to scale sheer walls with a knife between his teeth if necessary. Mina has a really impressive memory for conversations and schedules, a love of technology, experience resisting what is essentially supernatural interrogation, and probably some vampire side effects of her own. both of them know shorthand and have plenty of experience with life or death situations. they would kick ass as spies and wireless operators.

Jack and Van Helsing would have to cease the medical malpractice to be actual army doctors. maybe learn about shell shock and call up Jonathan about that old "brain fever" diagnosis of his.

and what would Arthur even do? what did lords do during WW1? try to keep his friends out of harm's way? use his seat in government to try and end the war? grapple with the fact that lordships are falling out of favour and the world is moving on into a modern era without him?

i just find it fun to ponder.

#let's not even touch my idea for a crossover with war of the worlds #because those are set in the same decade #imagine: you defeat dracula and 6 months later england is invaded by blood drinking aliens #'goddamnit. here we go again.'#except crucifixes and communion wafers won't protect you this time #dracula #dracula daily #re: dracula

all hate to tiktok for taking 'having a space to more openly and actively talk about different cultures' to mean 'cultures are NOT to be shared and we must be vigilantly defensive of our cultures for fear of appropriation, a word that can be applied to any multicultural interaction'. like of course cultural appropriation is a very real problem but ive seen with the access to global multicultural conversation that tiktok provides it's made people TERRIFIED to even interact with cultures other than their own for fear of 'doing it wrong'. like at some point you have to acknowledge that in the real world of the great outdoors, the majority of people are eager to SHARE their cultures. yes there are ignorant questions and biases but also... how do you think those things get unlearnt? i dont understand how deciding that multiculturalism is an elephant in the room instead of a normal thing that should just be talked about and lived with is supposed to benefit anyone? and kids on tiktok are CONVINCED that it's a time bomb of a conversation to have and therefore must be avoided at all costs but like. people generally LOVE their home and their culture and are PROUD of it and want to share it. how have we made it so that showing genuine interest and a desire to understand something so integral to a person's identity is now feared and borderline demonised?

#thinking about this a lot lately. thinking about how fun it was comparing cultural differences in america #thinking of how when i was homesick one thing i found a great comfort in was talking about my home #and how it differed and i really loved and appreciated it when people would ask me about england #in a way that they genuinely just wanted to learn about it and not to take the piss #thinking about how the kitchen at work has chefs from all over europe. we have an irish chef and a spanish chef and an italian chef #and one of the kps is from eastern europe (i havent actually been able to find out where yet) etc and the way they banter with each other #like usually chefs are Problematic bc their humour is VERY abrasive and usually offensive #but this is one instance where it's actually to their benefit bc they're so unafraid to ADDRESS THE FACT THEY HAVE DIFFERENT CULTURES #i feel like the tiktok gen are so petrified of even acknowledging other cultures let alone discussing them #that it's actually sending the conversation backwards. like how does hoarding your culture and pretending it's not there benefit anyone #LET ALONE YOU AND THE CULTURE IN QUESTION. idk it just baffles me a bit that something that started as people on tiktok #genuinely spreading information and talking about the BAD side of this where people DO culturally appropriate or invade spaces that arent #theirs has now become 'for fear of speaking bad about it we will not speak about it at all'. and they'll crucify you if you do. like what #even at uni my best mate is indian and she's too scared to join the sikh society on her own so i regularly go to the events with her #and im typically one of the handful (or the only) white non-sikh there and i get SO welcomed each time #like there's such a genuine excitement to share the culture with someone who is effectively a blank slate #and like yeah ill ask 'dumb' questions or i'll have different experiences (tried a samosa for the first time at one of these events #and the moment that info got out i had like five STRANGERS trying to give me different samosas to try and it was genuinely such #a laugh bc yes they were TEASING me bc 'how have you never had one' but they were also really eager to share MORE as a result)#ugh idk what im saying. i just think it's a shame to watch this happen in real time on the internet #when if people would just go outside and actually TALK to people from other cultures they'd realise 9 times out of 10 the interactions #are actually really really nice for BOTH parties. and actually refusing to talk about this stuff is long-term pretty fucking detrimental #and it also goes the other way!!! like imagine if i - citizen of colonisation motherland herself - didn't interact with other cultures #and didnt ask questions or hear their opinions on whatever shared history we have from THEIR POINT OF VIEW #imagine the kind of shit id be internalising bc i only hung out with other white british people. it wouldnt matter if i was doing it #to be woke or 'respect their culture'. it would still be fucking ignorant. like half my interactions with other cultures #see me as the butt of the joke bc of this like aforementioned irish chef at work VOCALLY slates the english all the time #but it's done in an environment where we're FRIENDS and it's poking fun at each other while still addressing a very serious history. like??#idk if any of this is worded in a way that makes sense but yeah. i have thoughts #cant believe i got inspired to make an actually serious post bc of the CHEFS AT WORK. embarrassing. no one let them see this

Alright I got enough England requests where I broke down and made an England Voice,. A regular old "Fine I'll do it myself" moment. So I can now do England requests. Molded off his World Stars Voice. Previews of his voice : 3 Songs: Leave her Johnny, Wellerman, Humors of Whisky.

I'm going to polish it more. But for my first attempt at doing this I Impressed myself. It just wanted to show case the FIRST England AI voice to you all. Thought Sea Shanties would be the best way to do it. England isn't my favorite but SOMEONE has to do something for all the England girlies out there

Download available on the discord

#Hetalia #hws england #aph england #arthur kirkland #audio #okay now i'm seriosuly going to go to bed #4 real this time #if you want copies of any of the songs just let me know #maybe I can start a discord where I drop them all and you guys can grab the ones you want #HC Ai Voices

Not to link everything in the PL universe back to the Azran… but does anyone wonder if Layton and Luke (especially) were so determined to investigate the Relic Stones because they thought there was a chance they could bring Aurora back?

Like, Luke knows the timeline doesn’t make sense because Baby Kat is born 2/3 years after AL and Luke walks past a mother and a baby who look like Aurora in the AL credits but after the shipwreck, in his exhausted starving mind, do you think Luke hoped the baby might be Reborn Aurora? Kat’s mother was literally called Kamila Azran—

The purple Relic Stones also look like the jewel of Aurora’s pendant…

I don’t think Luke gets enough flak for how he decided to investigate the Relic Stones on his own, shut Marina out, got himself captured by Don Paolo and then he inspired Layton (who was dedicated to raising Kat at that point) to go out hunting for the Relic Stones with him…

But if Luke was so determined to find the Relic Stones because he thought he could save his lost friend… I could see why he would take the risk.

Either that, or Luke wanted to help avoid another disastrous family reunion if Kat’s birth father happened to be alive and he could come back to fight Layton and kidnap Kat. (Luke still hasn’t recovered to the Bronev Family Soap Opera.)

#aurora azran #luke triton #hershel layton #Kamila Azan #professor layton #character analysis #Me trying to apply logic to the nonsensical anime plotline again #If we’re going to criticise Layton for being an absent parent then Luke doesn’t get let off the hook either #He had a WIFE who moved to ENGLAND with him just so he could go on his little treasure hunt and shut her out #Marina DESERVED that shopping trip at the end of the anime #Luke better buy her cake and clothes and an aquarium or whatever she wants in the world

Just like an adventurer that shares to the world their treasures, I'm going to share with the world my favorite cuttletavio tweets that I found while scavenging, just so you don't have to go to that site unnecessarily.

#I could keep going but I don't want to be there more than i have to #my absolute favorites are la guerre; queen of england and cuttlesphere #I can't deny we are very funny no matter the site #ah yes let's all go to cuttletavio church. We have a statue of Craig crucified and we blast octavio's music through the speakers

canada: *sitting in fetal position in police station cell, hiding his face and wishing he could just die* england: *standing outside the cell with his arms folded, exasperated but honestly somewhat amused it’s canada he’s gotta come pick up from jail*

#'yes that's my son usually he's a good lad but something about that hockey game he adores seems to turn him into a raging beast'#royal red bros #hws canada #hws england #no america never lets this go

25 for engspa 😌😌 happy holidays!

we're moving we're writting we're engspa-ing - i hope you had a lovely holiday period! sorry for this being slowwww, but here ya go, and welcome to 2024! :D

Message

“Hey, where are you going? Arthur, come back!”

Arthur peers back over his shoulder just as he steps out of the meeting room, along with everyone else that has already packed their work so that they could officially embrace the start of their holiday break. With three weeks off, it is a blessing in tinsel-adorned surprise.

Even if he recognises the voice that has called to him, though, in those milliseconds it takes to turn his head, he wonders if it could be João, or Francis, or Ludwig. Someone logical. Someone that would have reason, surely, to want to make conversation.

His ears, however, have not deceived him.

He turns to find Antonio, yet to properly put his things away and part from the final gathering of the year. He seems to be waiting. Expecting. Arthur is unsure what for, though.

João does pass in the meantime, and claps Arthur on the shoulder (“Have fun,” he says, a comment yet to be understood) as he goes, and there is a brief temptation to go with him—it would be safer. A drink with João at a nearby bar to wish him a happy Christmas, before the Channel separates them again. He misses spending time with his friend. It gets harder and harder to make an excuse to see him with each year that passes…

Fingers snap in front of his face. Arthur jerks back, and then shoots Antonio (who has magically collected his things to leave) an unamused look as he recovers.

“What?” he asks, calling the other names only in his cornered mind.

“You never replied,” Antonio tells him.

“To you calling me back like a dog, you mean?” the Brit scoffs.

“No,” Antonio replies, however. “I sent you a message last week. A few, actually.”

Arthur stutters. He doesn't recall. He even asks Antonio if he is sure, but the way the other crosses his arms over his chest, raises a brow, and steels himself is the only answer he requires.

“Sorry,” he says sheepishly. “I take it it was important.”

“Very,” Antonio replies.

“Well, like I said, I’m sor—”

“I asked you about your plans for Christmas.”

At that, Arthur blinks, his eyes staying shut for a good two seconds before he opens them and looks at Antonio with an increased level of bewilderment. “You want to know what I’m doing for Christmas?”

“Yes. If that’s okay.”

The Brit tuts, but he gives in. (Sort of): “I’m going wake up Christmas morning,” he begins to say, “make myself a cup of tea, have a sorry excuse for a breakfast, go for a walk, watch some crappy movie, have dinner, have pudding, and then go to bed.” His face relaxes. “Is that a detailed enough itinerary for you?”

Antonio only starts to look sorry for him, much to Arthur’s horror, however, and he says, “You aren’t seeing anyone…?”

“No,” the blond says warily. “Why?”

“Because,” Antonio replies, “if that’s the case, then you should come and spend Christmas with me.”

“With—” He scoffs, a pure instinctual response to something so— so ludicrous! “With you?” he barks. “Yeah, right!”

Looking mildly offended at the outburst, Antonio lets the stragglers from the meeting file out, breaking eye contact with Arthur for a good moment, before he finally looks back at him and says somewhat sternly, “I mean it. You can spend Christmas with me.”

There is only one word that Arthur is able to produce: “Why?”

“Why, what?”

“Why are you inviting me to spend Christmas with you?” the Brit clarifies. “Me of all people?”

“Well João and Francis are popping over as well over Christmas Eve and Christmas Day,” Antonio tells him. “Gilbert, too. And I’ve invited a few others, though I’ve not had definite responses yet… But it’s not just you, if that’s what you’re worried about.”

“I’m not worried, I’m confused. Seriously, why are you—?”

“Arthur, please,” Antonio says with a soft sigh. “Do you really have to ask why?”

“Yes!”

The Spaniard rolls his eyes and shakes his head a little, but, in the end, he concedes: “I’m inviting you over, because no one should be alone for the holidays. It… doesn’t sit right with me.”

Arthur is stunned, for lack of a better word. He’s surprised—still a little bit confused, too—but more than anything, he is… touched. Not that he would dare say so aloud, because of course, he has no issues spending some time alone!… But…

…No one can deny the complexities lying behind England and Spain, and the relationship their personifications share.

Part of Arthur finds distaste in how this could be a gesture of pity rather than thought, because Antonio feels sorry for the fool who spends his Christmas sitting alone by the fire nursing a cup of tea and old memories of years gone by. Part of him at the same time, however, also wants to believe that this is all sincere, that Antonio cares, that Antonio wants him—genuinely wants him—to be there.

It could be a blessing in disguise. It could be a change to… branch out, he supposes. Enjoy some winter sun, while he’s at it…

“It’s up to you,” Antonio goes on to say amidst Arthur’s indecision. “But I’ve got a room going spare and lots of food to eat. So you’re welcome to come over if you want to.”

Arthur nods, and swallows down a lump of… he doesn’t know. Shame? Guilt? Uncertainty?

Then he asks, “Can I have some time to think on it?” as a polite request—a sign, really, that he is at least considering the offer he has been given.

“Sure,” Antonio smiles at him, much to his relief (and that smile warms him all the while, a sign in turn that the other is happy to hear it). “If you just give me a few days’ notice if you do decide to join us, that’d be good. Just so I can make sure everything’s ready.”

“‘Course.”

“Great. Well, uh…” His smile becomes a bit softer, and almost meeker, too. “I’ll… leave you to do whatever it was you were doing,” Antonio says, before he excuses himself and stps around Arthur to continue on his way.

It is as Arthur watches Antonio leave—as he watches how Antonio rubs the back of his neck and swings his bag and glances out of the corridor windows before he fixes his strides and pace—that something takes over him. That something deep within him calls out:

“Antonio, wait!”

The Spaniard stops, almost tripping over his own feet. Arthur hears him curse, and scurries after him as Antonio turns around.

“W… What is it?” the other asks him.

As Arthur arrives at his side, he makes his call: “I’ll come.”

Antonio perks up. Now he is the surprised one. “You will?”

“I am actually seeing my brother on the 28th,” Arthur says before he forgets, “but I— I can spend Christmas with you. In fact, I…”

“You…?”

Arthur clears his throat and musters up a faint smile for the other, finding it, at last, in himself to say, “I’d be honoured,” as his face warms, his palms start to turn clammy, and his tie feels just a bit too tight. “I would… very much like to see you for Christmas, in fact.”

Antonio’s smile returns, brighter than before.

Arthur’s happy holidays have officially begun.

Davy had braces as a kid and now sleeps with a retainer that makes him lisp really hard. So when he puts it in (the same time on the dot every night, his grandfather warned him about not wearing it) he becomes completely incomprehensible to the other guys

Awe and he’s already sleepy so he’d already be all mumbly and grumbly. Burying his face in a blanket while muffled by the retainer no one can tell what little one is saying.

mike reads bedtime stories sometimes after davy has his retainer in when he’s all baby davy and he’ll get all wide-eyed and try to point something out to mike as he’s reading and mike is just like “yeah babe! uh huh!” and davy snuggles back into him and giggles.

#the monkees #davy jones #asks #davybaby #he’s such a little guy oh my goodness #davy was always so nervous at home that he was going to break the rules it’s why he’s so pushy with mike setting rules #because he thinks it’s fun but also because he knows that mike won’t get upset with him really #and that mike loves him conconditonally and that he can also talk with mike if something isn’t working for everyone #mike won’t scare him into doing anything but he’ll let davy know WHY he’s telling him something #must’ve had some real bad teeth to get braces in england in the SIXTIES #poor babe and his messed up teeth

that'd be a great time for netflix to announce rottmnt season 3 and watch the world rip itself open as every neurodivergent on social media is debating wether to post about the old crone or the ninja turtles, right in the midst of the splatoon 3 fever. I want the death of lizzie to FIGHT for the first trending place. i want a fandom war to take the bitch's throne. this would be the battle of the five armies.

#let's keep this party going y'all #england #elizabeth ii #uk #queen elizabeth #rottmnt #splatoon 3

Just rewatched DFF ep 9 and I really do think this show is so beautifully meticulously artistically written, with themes and layers and so much thoughtful care. I trust wherever it leads, even if it doesn't lead to the places I want most in my heart (PerthNon vs. PheeTan revenge teams at crosshairs, culminating in a heartfelt brotherly reunion, lol if playfully grudging at how much they fucked up each other's plans despite having the same goals, and a Non who has moved on with someone who has life experiences similar enough to his to actually understand him, listen to him, and trust him. But most importantly A HEARTFELT BROTHERLY REUNION). It's just always fun to watch a show where you can expect to be surprised, you can expect to be angry at the characters, you can expect to not get what you want, and you can still expect to appreciate the writing and enjoy the experience. Love to let the story seduce me you see

#btw im not knocking phee for not understanding or trusting non he is a realistic teenage boy #but i am not expecting the narrative to have him confront his inadequacies as wannabe superboyfriend #like he may confront them with jin but i don't think he's going to really get the scope of them with non #thusly i don't want him to choose non out of obligation or guilt i want non to have his own very alive life without him #phee hurts me the most because he's probably the character i relate to most. for better or worse....#but!!! the real point of this post is that i trust the writing and i trust the show #it doesn't have to go in any direction i predict for me to be satisfied and mesmerized #i hope non is alive thoughhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sob sob sob #i hope non and new survive together sob sob sob #they make me SO SAD i can't cope #everything new's parents kept from him 'for his own good' to preserve his golden boy future #at cost to him and his relationship with them and his relationship with his brother #there is no way he would have let them continue needlessly sending $$ for two years straight if he knew what a hardship it was #which means he had no idea what it took to support him in england while non was at home being blamed for his family's money problems #new carried his family's expectations on his shoulders and strove and strove and strove the way his parents wanted #and utterly failed his brother in the process #then strove and strove to make that right #and utterly failed his parents #non carried his family's disappointments and strove and strove to find anything to live for outside of them #and found only more isolation and horror #but his brother actually loves him so much #i need him and non to get their hug #but if he dies heroically hallucinating the hug #or any other possible writing choice #i trust! i do trust!! i will appreciate the writing #i'll sob my eyes out. and want fixit fic. and appreciate the writing #dff #dead friend forever #dff spoilers #prathipsits
