Let Daniel Craig kiss Hugh Grant in the next Knives out Movie, pretty please. Let Phillip call Blanc “My darling” or “My dear” and let Blanc call Phillip “My sweetheart” or “my good husband”.
(TLDR: Let Phillip and Blanc be gay together, thanks)
*benoit blanc voice* Yoar tellin’ me, this heah applicashon, tumblah dot com is obsessin’ ova the extracshon from vanilla beans? Strange, very strange. And ah, who began this heaya trend? No one?? Intrestin’ tha’s very intrestin’. Phillip, darlin’, what do you make of this phenomena? Not surprised, eh? I must’a get online moar I believe.
I am knee-deep in the Benoit Blanc/Philip tag on Ao3 and am delighted by the many plausible and wonderfully fitting jobs my fellow sleuth/house husband gentleman butler fans have come up with. So I came to the conclusion: I want Philip to have a different job in every upcoming Benoit Blanc movie. And I want there to be no questions asked.
Blanc introducing his husband as the most capable lawyer he knows. Next time he casually mentions Philip to have opened a bookshop. Afterwards we find out that he also owns a bakery. A female lead of a future movie recognizes Philip and refers to him as the famous jewel thieve only for Benoit to retort that his hubby is into tailoring now. Another movie starts with Philip finding a body on his realtor job.
Blanc: The bond's Name. James Name.
Phillip: Pleased to...what?
Blanc: Bond Name's the james
Phillip: Are you alright?
Blanc: Bames Nond's having a stronk, call a Bondulance
It has come to my attention that there aren't many manips with Benoit/Phillip as young adults out there, soo ... I did that instead of being otherwise productive!
I know these are not perfect, but I think the idea of them meeting at a young age and being in love ever since is very cute. <3
