Now, nobody likes The Colonel more than I do…except perhaps my wife and some of her friends. Oh yes, and Captain Johnson. Come to think of it, most people like The Colonel more than I do, but that's beside the point.
It's probably unlikely that you'll see this, since ofc you're probably busy rn, but incase you do see this in your inbox but don't have time to answer due to other stuff, i just wanna let you know that i still appreciate you somehow having time to read this lil ask I've sent you! Again, thank you Mr Gaiman!
Anyway, so this would probably sound *kinda* weird in terms of the ask i'm writing to you, but do bear with me!
Ok, so uhh Mr Gaiman, if you were to have the ability to time travel to alternative dimensions/universes, would you go to an alternative universe where Monty Python member Graham Chapman never got throat cancer and was still alive and well and happy in his 80s and living his best life in said alternative universe? If so, why? If not, why?
Again, sorry if it sounds a bit out of league and sorta philosophical in terms of the question for you to answer, Mr Gaiman, but I've been thinking about this for quite a while now and it does make me both happy and emotional to think about if Graham Chapman was still alive today, and if he was still alive today, what kinda projects he would've been in, both in terms of writing and acting? Would Graham still be in contact with the other Pythons? Would Graham probably also have a Tumblr account? (ok that's a bit of a stretch but it's a bit funny to imagine imo).
I certainly think that, if Graham was still alive today, he would've been absolutely happy that same-sex marriage was finally made legal plus many other achievements for LGBTQ+ rights, and that he would've probably gotten legally married to his partner David Sherlock, with the other Pythons being the guests of honour for the wedding ceremony!
I also wonder that, if Graham's adopted son John Tomiczek (who unfortunately died from a heart attack in 1992) were to also live, would've Graham finally become a grandpa/great-grandpa?
Idk, it's just some thoughts that I've been thinking about. Thoughts about the many upon many possibilities of Graham doing lots of stuff today if he were still alive. Things he *would've* and *could've* have had the opportunity to do......that is.....if the universe didn't decide to be a dickhead one day and give Graham throat cancer for no absolute reason, and to make it hurt even more, have him pass away on the eve before the 20th Anniversary of "Monty Python's Flying Circus" airing on the 5th October, 1989.....
Again, I understand if you can't be able to answer rn due to other stuff, but I thought I'd ask you this rather hypothetical (rather philosophical of sorts) question cuz I have been thinking about it for quite a while now, and I wanted to hear your personal thoughts on this hypothetical AU situation!
Thanks Mr Neil Gaiman ❤️
It's a lovely idea. I never knew Graham (although I've met most of the other Pythons, and am friends with Terry Gilliam). I like thinking of worlds in which wonderful people didn't die.
Ok guys, I did it. I drew Old Man Graham Chapman (in an AU where Gray never got cancer and was still alive and well and happy and living his best life), in which Old Man Gray here has thick, black glasses, wears a fluffy jumper and has a grey-whitish (but mostly grey) beard. And he's smiling 😊 and holding a cup of coffee/tea!
Hiya! I was wondering if you could do a Monty Python art request for me, please?
The art request in question is basically this:
Could you redraw this pic of the Pythons from 1969, but draw the Pythons as old men (including Gray as an old man as I absolutely LUV your fanart of him, thanks so much for making it happen!!!) please? Uhh thanks!!
Hiya! I don't know if you do art requests, but I was wondering if you could draw an AU Graham Chapman as an old man (aka an AU where Graham never got throat cancer and was still alive and well and happy in his 80s in said AU), in which Old Man Gray is wearing cute, thick black glasses 🤓, wears a fluffy jumper, and has a cute grey-whitish beard with grey-whitish hair, and he's smiling an adorable old man smile please? Uhh thanks!!
Hii! As much as I would LOVE to say yes to this, I spent wayyyyy too much time as a child singing rather than drawing, so my skills are non-existent. Honestly the best you’d get is a stick-man. 😭🙏
However, if it’s ok with you, I’m gonna post this here so that an amazing-tumblr-artist-Python-fan might see this and draw it!! (because I need old man Gray art in my life!)
Decided to make this cuz Mrs Brown's and Galaxy Song Singer's outfit colour schemes reminded me of the colours of the trans flag, but spacey edition! 🌌🏳️⚧️🌌 (Enjoy!!)
