To celebrate barricades day, J & I watched Les Mis (2012) with our housemate who doesn't go to tumblr. Truly eye opening to see how little knowledge about this film it's possible to have!

#Had to tell her Marius was a bonapartist. She didn't know #She hadn't heard of George Blagdon. Sure. I expected that.#But I don't think she knew who Jean valjean was...#Me Fein #Les Mis

[Golden Age of Piracy] Chief Obliviator Captain Morgan Blay Moodboard

“Rip it off -- show the symbol on your chest -- Say, ‘come on,’ and show the world who you really are! It's not enough to be better than the rest... Gotta take it to the top and make yourself a superstar!

You don't need them to believe in you -- Get your mission on lock and see it through... You've got all the power you need in you -- Power you need in you -- power you need in you!”

~“Superhero” by Simon Curtis

In the late 17th and early 18th century, pirates ruled the seven seas. Muggle pirates had plenty of enemies, but pirates who came from the Wizarding World had even more. They not only had to contend with the likes of magical creatures like sea serpents and ancient Dark curses beyond imagination, but they also had to deal with the British Ministry of Magic’s Chief Obliviator, Morgan Blay, who was determined to hunt down and transport all of them back to Europe to face the Wizengamot for violating the International Statute of Secrecy.

However much of a stickler for law and order Blay is and no matter how easy it is to make fun of his fastidious, rigid nature, however, he’s no idle threat to piracy. At just 26 years of age, Blay is an expert at both non-verbal and wandless magic, and his Charms and Transfiguration are so advanced that he has been able to create perfect illusions around his own wand and other such magical things so that to Muggle eyes, they resemble perfectly normal things like swords (for wands) or seals (for mermaids). He even invented a spell of his own -- Repello Muggletum -- which wards Muggles off from magic-heavy areas and deters them from investigating further. (His alma mater, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, has gotten very good use out of this particular spell.) His dueling skill is only slightly sharper than his talent with a Muggle pistol and cutlass, which in turn is just as sharp as his wit -- many an opponent of Blay’s has gotten a good verbal lashing alongside a physical one. This isn’t even touching on his encyclopedic knowledge of sailing, astronomy, navigation, and Muggle technology of the era like pistols, cannons, and telescopes. All of these talents serve him well as he works undercover as part of the British Muggle Navy, secretly capturing magical pirates alongside non-magical ones while captaining an entire crew of Muggle sailors, who idolize and respect their leader for his courage, intelligence, dedication, and moral fiber. It’s a fact that makes Blay all the more protective of his men and of Muggles in general, considering the deception he’s had to deal in, just interacting with them.

Truly, if any magic users on the high seas in the Golden Age of Piracy wish to retain their freedom, they will want to stay one step ahead of the likes of Captain Morgan Blay.

#morgan blay #aesthetic #moodboard #golden age of piracy #yaaaaaas here's the boy!#basically this guy is inspector javert james norrington hermione granger percy weasley and thorin oakenshield in a blender #classic gryffindor-ravenclaw hatstall #more about his background...#morgan was largely raised by his great-uncle blagdon blay a wizard who invented the anti-alohomora charm #morgan's father was an auror and he was killed when morgan was very young #so he always aspired to do good meaningful work for the ministry 'like his father but bolder'#he also strongly STRONGLY believes in upholding the statute of secrecy #not only is it the law but morgan believes if it were ever broken then it would throw the whole world -- muggle and magical -- into chaos #this is why however fond he is of his crew and how protective he is of them he is adamant about not sharing the truth with them #and this is also why he's so passionate about rounding up those magical pirates who sail the seven seas using magic willy-nilly #even though I'm like *sniff* come on morgan they just wanna be freeeeeee #but hey morgan's a stick in the mud what can I say #a stick in the mud who uses his head more than his heart and is as stubborn as a mule #but a moral responsible and courageous one regardless

An original grog bucket from HMS Majesty, a 74 Gun third-rate ship of the line launched in 1785 at Deptford, England fought at Aboukir Bay, known as "The Battle of the Nile" under the command of Captain George Blagdon Westcott who was killed in during the action. Incribed : "Good men of the MAJESTIC. In remembrance of ABOUKIR BAY. Your toast shall be God Bless KING GEORGE, ADMIRAL NELSON and brave CAPTAIN WESTCOTT. 1798"

The contents of this bucket is of course not enough for the whole crew. But the grog was usually distributed from the barrel in such buckets to the individual divisions to avoid long queues.

John and Hosea gave Dutch a proper scolding for losing Arthur, who stole Old Boy and then proceeded to go off on his own accord. John: . . . "He stole Old Boy!" Hosea: . . . Get them back. Dutch and the boys finally caught up with the unruly son, after torrential desert downpour but wild horses cannot simply be roped in! To be be continued. (true story I spawned Orthur, John and Hosea for a family bounty hunting, spawned a pony each for them; Silver Dollar for Hosea, Old Boy for John, and Pat the Pack Pony for Arthur because he seems a Bretony kind of guy; well Orthur had other plans, and decided that lol no he's going to take his bro's horse and ride off into the sunset with him) (feat. Blagdon the Irish Cob)
