one of my favourite things is how tommy's wikipedia page just has to mention alfie even though the rest of the description doesn't really relate to it. that's his key relationship, that's the one they have to mention over any other.. okay

in s05e01 when tommy talks to grace's ghost, he says to her "all this time" (to which she replies "our love still remains"). just like in the s6 finale where tommy says to alfie "after all this time, just you and me". in this essay, i will-

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Peaky Blinders (TV) Rating: Mature Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Tommy Shelby/Alfie Solomons Characters: Tommy Shelby, Alfie Solomons Additional Tags: Missing Scene, Historical References, Literary References & Allusions, Season/Series 06, Seizures, Sexual Politics, Suicidal Thoughts Summary:
He was dying. It settled into the diseased creases of his brain the way every other detail and fact and plan did; it wasn鈥檛 unexpected information. He鈥檇 known something sat altered above his head for a while. Lied to Lizzie, about the crossing. Had been waking up pinned to the floor by ache and fatigue and dull metal in his mouth for months now, the death he鈥檇 wanted to die four years ago (and still, on some level, still) momentarily catching up with him. He鈥檇 be breathing like an unfit yearling running its first sprints, harsh, ragged pants, sweat sliding down his face. Barely able to talk the first few minutes. Certainly not able to stand. Tell me, Polly, is that the situation of a healthy man?
Death being what it was, he went to Margate.

beautiful symbolism ... the way it still looks like alfie is holding the gun at tommy even though it isn't him, but you have to look again before you're sure. so perfectly yet so simply reflects the way we and tommy are never sure if he will betray him. and when he does it's usually because of someone else
Tumblr media
his reaction to hearing they took charlie sticks with me all the time and i think i'd say this is alfie at his most authentic, even though he betrayed tommy again his guard is let down (literally when michael kills the guy protecting him) and the lines stop becoming blurred.

fic writer tag game
thanks for the tag @mirkwood-hr-department !
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
44
2. What鈥檚 your total AO3 word count?
~900k (scary)
3. What fandoms do you write for?
stranger things, peaky blinders, tolkien, succession, among others...
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
- sub-culture
- the lathe
- better by you, better than me
- disaster/lucky
- misgiven
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
i do! i'm not so great at it with oneshots but with multichapters my practice is to reply to all the previous chapter's comments right before i post the next one. it keeps me disciplined about it, since i think it's important to engage with and thank my readers.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
probably the year of what now... i was going for hopeful melancholy but let's be honest. i cried writing it
7. What鈥檚 the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
i mean i don't really do unqualified happy endings lmao there's always something bittersweet or complicated about it. maybe love is a battle i can win? since i finished writing it on christmas eve and something about the festive spirit must have suffused my attitude.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
thankfully not, or if i have it wasn't consequential enough to recall it.
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
not really, no. i'm more of a fade-to-black kind of gal. i have the utmost respect for those who do write it, since i find it difficult and ultimately would rather focus my energy on other parts of my writing.
10. Do you write crossovers? What鈥檚 the craziest one you鈥檝e written?
not really, no. they can be fun but it's difficult to find a scenario that feels plausible (as someone obsessed with that sort of thing lmao). i do have a hankering to somehow connect downton abbey and peaky blinders together, since they occur in exactly the same period from very different societal perspectives. i have no idea how, however. the casual viewer's choice would be putting mary and tommy together, but mary's far too much of a snob, and sybil too much of an idealist. thomas, maybe? hmm now i'm thinking about it maybe i'll do it and write something gen.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
not to my knowledge. i have had edits stolen and put on tiktok, though, which was enraging.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
i have! no forest, no trees was translated into russian, and the first few chapters of the lathe have been translated into german.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
i have not. i don't think i'm a collaborative enough person for that lmao
14. What鈥檚 your all time favourite ship?
i'm not sure i have one! definitely have some i prefer to write but i like them all for different reasons, and i also err on the side of character work rather than straightforward fandom-style shipping.
15. What鈥檚 a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
there's a elrond & thranduil wip sitting in my google docs waiting for its final few sections. i keep going back to it and rereading it and then never adding anything else, though it really does need those extra sections to be fit for uploading. there's also private eyes, which i did enjoy writing, but i think my style and interests have evolved somewhat beyond it now. i'm also somewhat working on a thoroughbred racing tommyalfie au set in the 1970s, but i fear my own lack of knowledge about the industry will prevent me ever being quite happy enough with it to post.
16. What are your writing strengths?
dialogue. i love me some dialogue. i also love doing research and i think i'm good at utilising that research in a thematically effective way.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
i make things way longer than they need to be lol. i'm also trying to get away from over-explaining in an internal monologue and instead trying to trust the reader and the writing to speak for itself.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
i can't say i've ever really had an opinion on this. i probably wouldn't use another language for pivotal dialogue, even if it's footnoted, since it can take a non-speaking reader out of the flow of the scene, but overall i don't really mind and sometimes it can be effective.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
probably something like marvel or once upon a time back on ff.net. those were most certainly NOT the days.
20. Favourite fic you鈥檝e written?
hmmm definite recency bias coming in here but it's got to be either the lathe or better by you, better than me. honourable mention (only because it's so much shorter) to vagues.
zero pressure tags to @beetlesandstarss @television-bodies @greatunironic @divinekangaroo

after cyril dies, tommy buys alfie a cat, actually. and it鈥檚 one of those things where alfie pretends to hate the cat but after about 3.5 seconds is so in love with it that not only is he ignoring tommy but he is making fresh food for the little fella and has carved out a spot at the foot of the bed for him while tommy just grins smugly in the background
