For the Ghosts Ask Game!! 2, 8, 15, 23, 28 [Julian], 41 & 44 [Thomas] <3 <3 <3

2. If you could see the ghosts like Alison, which one do you think would come the closest to making you want to leave the house?

I'm so sorry but it would be Thomas and Kitty. The ghosts are all clingy in their own way but these two are clingy in a way that would genuinely make me go insane. I need my SPACE and I despise anyone forming a romantic attachment to me.

Obviously Julian is awful but I've known/lived with people who are awful in a similar way and I think I could cope. Just give him something to do and leave him be. and it's like. yeah he's got terrible political opinions, but he's dead, so it's not like he can fucking do anything with them. I think Robin might be the third most annoying to live with because I do not appreciate being jump scared, he'd probably give me a full on panic attack or something :| but then again, if it REALLY upset me, he'd probably stop, whereas some of the others are not quite as empathetic. hmm

8. Which ghost do you think you'd get along with the best?

Patrick!!!! I think his eternal chipperness might grate on me but not too much. I also think he'd be quite fun to wind up good-naturedly, y'know. I know I just said Robin for the other answer but also Robin for this answer? he's a sweet boy

15. If you could go back in time and live in the house/on the property at the same time as one of the ghosts when they were alive, who would you pick?

this is so tough because I LOVE history but all of the ghosts' encounters with the house are a bit unpleasant. like I would love to go back to the 90s, but Julian's specific 90s?! Nein, danke. Regency, tempting, if only for the poets, but if I'm stuck at Button House I won't get to meet any of them. I think it'd probably weirdly be Fanny because mid to late 1800s is just very inchresting to me. I'd probably end up being one of her bloody maids or something, though, which would not be very fun. I'm changing my answer to Robin because I'm very curious about when he's from and what it was like :)

23. What is something you're hoping to see in a future series, but know we probably WON'T get to see?

I honestly can't think of much, I feel like they'll show us everything we should see, and not show us everything we shouldn't see. Obviously Cap's death is very interesting to me. I would also very much like to see Robin's life and Mary's life? We don't know anything about their partners/children/etc.!

28. Top 5 headcanons for Julian?

Erm. oh boy. y'know this is tough because there's a version of him that lives in my head who is so divorced from the real Julian that it's not really headcanons it's just complete fabrication. and yet it's also all correct and true so here goes :)

- If, IF -- he's not, but if -- he were remotely not straight, he'd be more repressed about it than the Captain, I think. I do buy it when people write him as being so sexually liberated that he's not embarrassed about having had gay experiences or whatever, but also... if he's from a very conservative background, he's going to have Issues there. I have known gay tories and they are a little fucked up.

- He and Margot were swingers and if it weren't for having a baby their marriage might have survived?

- He and Cap are close because they have a sort of public school boy camaraderie, Julian very much has the vibe of leading the very well-behaved boy astray which I think he enjoys a LOT.

- Rich but not like old money rich, y'know. Very new money, very flashy, very ostentatious. Very tacky.

- Has absolutely done everything he professes to have done, but also the laziest person in the world when it comes to sex, so he's never done anything that required much effort on his part.

41. Let's settle this once and for all. Who's the real leader, the Captain or Pat?

Neither, there is no leader, there's just Alison herding ghosts like cats and before that they were all just semi-feral cats

44. Tell me a song you think Thomas would like, or a song that reminds you of them!

This is cheating but I do have a Thomas playlist that's 80% Smiths songs. This one by Moz is especially Thomas-y, but also Half a Person and Cemetery Gates and The More You Ignore Me... Thomas is MUCH more a Smiths person than he is Cure person but I imagine they could not get the rights to a Smiths song for the show lmao.
