So we know Isadora & Duncan Quagmire are named after the dancer Isadoda Duncan because she died tragically; but she also had a pretty unfortunate life. Let me just summarize some of her story for you:

- her father, Joseph Charles Duncan, embezzling funds, leading to

- divorce of her parents, (well, also the fact that Joseph wasn't faithful) which lead to

- the family being in poverty (side point, there were three siblings, like the three siblings in most of the VFD families)

- Joseph and his third wife (sketchy) and his daughter with said wife DYING IN A BOAT ACCIDENT WHEN IT CRASHED INTO ROCKS UNDER MYSTERIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES (???!!!!) and is considered the "greatest disaster in the history of the Atlantic Transport Line to date". Oh and here's a picture of the MASS GRAVE

Wow okay anyway

- this isn't exactly "unfortunate" but she dropped out of school at 10

- she worked with Augustin Daly's theater but didn't enjoy it due to her free-spirited nature, and was thoroughly unhappy in America

- she moved to London (which is an unfortunate event alone) and was quite successful (girl's getting a break) but she didn't like touring or contracts because of the commercialism

- therefore she opens a school in Germany to teach dance, adopts six girls (good for her ig) and calls them the "Isadorables" (WHAT) and also they're her protégés; cute but then she tries opening a school but it closes due to WORLD WAR I

- moves to the United States but she plans to leave, narrowly avoids dying at sea like her dad (ok I'm not kidding; she was going to go on the RMS Lusitania, which was TORPEDOED BY THE GERMANS AND HELPED LEAD AMERICA INTO THE WAR, this is all very ironic because she considered the sea inspiration for her dancing)

- she ended up moving to SOVIET RUSSIA which was not smart bc they didn't support her work like they promised. She had established a school so she left it to one of her daughters/protégés/Isadorables

- oh, somewhere during all this, she has three biological children to three different husbands - THE FIRST TWO PROCEEDED TO DROWN (drown???? Oh my gosh this is a pattern) because their nanny accidentally (?) drove her car into the RIVER SEINE.

-with the first two children dead, Isadora is so desperate for another that she BEGS A STRANGER to get her pregnant. This baby also DIES shortly after birth

- marries a poet, then divorces him soon after (this poet btw, Sergei Yesenin, had a bunch of affairs, got arrested a bunch of times, was accused of anti-semetism, and then committed suicide-by-hanging in a hotel room. Wild.)

- okay so at this point Isadora's going through serious depression. Her three biological children are dead and she feels like she's lost some of the Isadorables to old men, and so her performances are getting more scarce.

- her reputation is tarnished by being drunk in public, her financial struggles, and her now-scandalous love life. She spends the years working on her autobiography (which only gets published posthumously) supported by her few remaining friends and family

- here's the part you've all been waiting for: Isadora Duncan dies on September 14, 1927 at the age of 50. Her silk scarf gets caught in the wheel of the automobile she was riding in, right in front of the person who had given the scarf to her as a gift. Apparently, she was flung out out of the window and died on brutal impact with the ground, almost decapitated by the scarf.

On that note, thanks for reading so far!! Please note that all of this is sourced from her Wikipedia page as well as a few other Wikipedia pages. Here's a picture of her:

WOEVEMBER DAY 6: THE UNFORTUNATE GENERATION

[Image description: Two images of Duncan Quagmire and Isadora Quagmire sleeping on a circle. The first image has Isadora sleeping upside down on the right, while Duncan is laying 'upright' on the left. He has curly hair and a content smile on his face, wearing a cardigan and turtleneck with socks. Next to him, the words 'What are friends for?' is written in big cursive, alongside a little drawing of a notepad. The next image is the same image as the first, but flipped and rotated until Isadora is the one upright while Duncan is upside down. She has the same curly hair as him and seems to be snoring. She is wearing a skirt, sweatshirt, and tennis shoes with knee-high socks. Next to her, the words 'don't worry baudelaires, don't be in disgrace, the quagmire triplets are on the case!' are written in cursive, with a little illustration of a pencil underneath it. End description.]

for @asouefanworkevent 's lovely lovely event! i love scrolling through everyone's contributions

anyhow, isadora and duncan!

arguably first true peers of the baudelaires, and who we hold out hope throughout the entire series that maybe, at least, they'll survive

ahaha...

at first i was going to draw them and 'the great unknown' together, but then just settled on them takin a lil nap

+ extra cuties as a treat

#...it was at this point where i realized i totally could've thrown quigley in there and it still would worked for the whole circular thing #a h #just assume he got up for a quick glass of water #the quagmires #isadora quagmire #duncan quagmire #a series of unfortunate events #asoue #woevember #the unfortunate generation

What’s your favourite thing about the Baudelaire siblings dynamic vs your favourite thing about the Quagmire siblings dynamic? (Canon or fanon) :) 👩‍👧‍👦👩‍👦‍👦

My favorite thing about the Baudelaires is that they always look out for each other. They're always each other's biggest priority and it's so sweet to see how much they care.

My favorite thing about the Quagmires? Their chaotic energy. We don't see the three together in canon but you just KNOW they're the most chaos triplets there is. And I love that.

#thanks for the ask!#asoue #the baudelaires #the quagmires

THE X-FILES (1993-2018)

SEASON THREE — Don’t you see, Mulder? You’re doing their work for them. You’re chasing aliens that aren’t there, helping them to create a story to cover the shameful truth. And what they can’t cover, they apologize for. Apology has become policy.

#my favourite season <333 #(ask me again after I watch s4 jsfkbfjs it's always between those 2 for me :'))#txf #the x files #tv #txf3 #txfedit #tvedit #scifiedit #horroredit #90sedit #thexfilesnet #.gif #*txfrewatch #this was soooo difficult I had like 40 gifs made and couldn't decide omg #because this season (even more than most others) has a very interesting mix of serious and comedic episodes #the myth arc is less trauma heavy than other seasons but still carries a lot of drama and darkness with melissa's death for example #and then the introduction of the black oil and scully meeting the other abductees and all that #but opposite this we have THE funniest and most brilliantly silly episodes (clyde bruckman. war of the c. jose chung's. quagmire etc.)#while there are ALSO some darker motw like grotesque and oubliette and pusher (to only name a few)#so idk. this set is a bit all over the place and doesn't totally do the season justice but it is what is is :')#*saul queued

You wake me up on a Saturday morning, tell me to be ready in five minutes, my mother is out of town, all of the dog sitters are booked and you know how I feel about kennels. So, unless you want to lose your security deposit on the car, I suggest you pull over.
