Maybe one day I'll turn this doodle into beautiful, anatomically correct art, but drawing any LoS scene as SFW is a lot of work.

I'm absolutely sure I've seen an art of Miss Peregrine thrown over PT's shoulder, I don't remember where it was, but the art was beautiful, and it was with it that I noticed Ymbryne's lack of clothes. That's when I realized why there are so few Los fanarts.

[furious-mango]

Another one crazy AU idea.

What if mphfpc was a feel-good comedy with the elements of musical? No one’s dead, everyone’s happy And the main character isn’t Jacob

Who then? Bentham brothers

[idk where's Alma in this au so feel free to add somethin to the story to fulfill her absence]

I see it so clear because you know what? It’s The Greatest Showman!

Phineas Taylor Barnum [P.T.!!!] Look at this man! He looks like both Jack and Myron imho

They’re like two sides of man actually. The one who wants SHOW and applause and to be looked upon with delight and so on And another, who wants show too but also wants to be with his family / loved ones

The Greatest Show [beginning]

How handsome he is.. i cant handle

In de beningi... ngi... nevermind. In the beginning he appears more calm but clearly enjoys the action. That's Myron's feature

That last part when the lights and music fades away but he keeps quietly singing those words…. im gonna start crying rn

I feel like Myron is lost in himself and in what he's doing but keeps going. Jack, on the other hand, is confident

The Other Side

oh look who's there! So young and yet innocent Percival Murmeow

Jack recruting Percy to quit loop life and join his emo band / circus / rebellious group etc. [underline as appropriate]

and after that they're dancing on tables. we all want to see Jack and almost drunk Percival dancing on tables and then makin the deal of their life.

"Sir, it looks like you have yourself a junior partner" "What I have is an overcompensated apprentice"

[oh shut up. I love them all sooo much]

Actually there's still some kind of rebel happening. But it's the Art rebellion. And they're singing:

Forget the cage, 'cause we know how to make the key Oh, damn! Suddenly we're free to flyyy

Just to rewatch this masterpiece with new perception:

Percy is younger (late teens I think) but soon he’ll become taller and overgrow Jack^^

Aand we're moving on to Myron!

Once again my man is lost and distraught. I want to hug him very tight... But he isn't broken. He has so much strengh inside

From now on These eyes will not be blinded by the lights From now on What's waited 'til tomorrow starts tonight Tonight

Let this promise in me start Like an anthem in my heart From now on From now on

And he will come back home... Home, again.... *distant sobbing*

The Greatest Show [end]

Jack is basking in the light and glory

I think even in this au Jack might want to gain divine powers. Just to make his show more breathtaking, spektacular, thrilling etc.

[imagined blue-cloud-Caul singing The Greatest Show with many voices…… creepy. but also epic]

Myron is also here! Finally living his best life

the grimbear instead of elephant. Now it's Myron riding PT

aand im done with going insane with characters and songs. or maybe not... Anyway! Thanks for reading! please tell me what do you think about it. i really wanna talk about mphfpc///

[cauls-antique-pepperbox-pistol]

This might sound crazy, but what if Myron didn’t actually really side with his brother again in the end of LoS. What if he just pretended to, so that he could more easily obtain a soul to fight his brother with.

Didn’t work out, still got a soul in the end by using Abe’s soul and fought Caul, but yknow

And that he didn’t keep Abe’s soul for himself cause he wanted to become a god just like Caul, but because cause he feared that that moment would come and he would need Abe’s soul to see the soul jars. (Cause let’s be honest, this man just wants to hang out in his library, pet his grimbear and read books to Nim. Myron’s not planning on being some god anytime soon.)

And maybe the argument he had with Alma didn’t make him side with his brother again (probably still upset him tbh), but encouraged him more to prove her wrong.

#been saying this (not publicly) for YEARS but oh well #i’m serious when i say i could talk about this man for hours #myron bentham #mphfpc #miss peregrines home for peculiar children #library of souls

___________________________________

When I woke up, the sun was shining through my window, and i could hear birds singing. I had a beautiful day ahead of me, and I was going to enjoy every bit. As I got up to get dressed, someone knocked on my door.

"Little sis ? Can i come in ?"

It was Enoch, my brother. I asked him to wait a little, since i was not dressed yet. At that moment, i felt like something had hit me on the forehead. I had a terrible headache, but it only lasted a few seconds.

I ignored it, and picked out a light blue dress that i put on as quickly as i could to not keep my brother waiting. I opened up my door, and Enoch smiled at me. "Ready ? It's time to go down for breakfast."

When we arrived at the dining room, Victor got up and pulled the chair next to him so i could sit down.

"Did you sleep well, love ?" He asked, with a smile.

"Oh yes, i slept like an hibernating grimbear."

"Bruntley ! Get your metal-bending hands away from  my sister." Said my brother.

"Oh, throw yourself off a cliff to see if you can raise yourself." Answered Victor.

"Boys ! Stop bickering like kindergarteners. This is really not necessary. Just.. stay friends, like you've always been." I said, trying to calm them down.

As we started eating i suddenly felt very nauseous, and my headache was back. I leaped out of my seat, and ran out of the dining room, ignoring my brother and my boyfriend.

My stomach was aching so badly i almost felt like something was biting my insides. I was trying to get to the bathroom in time, but the pain was so intense that i collapsed in the corridor.

I awoke in my bed, the pain in my head making things all blurry. I could see that two people were standing beside my bed, and slowly my consciousness came back and i was able to hear what they were saying.

"If you stopped choking her with all your protectiveness, this wouldn't have happened. I'm sure she got sick of you and all your 'she's my sister' nonsense." Said a voice i recognized as Victor's.

"Well let's see how you like it if i start snogging with your sister every night." Answered my brother, obviously irritated.

However, their arguing stopped when they noticed i was awake. They both knelt down next to me, asking if i was okay and if how i felt. Then Millard entered to reassure my brother and my boyfriend.

"So, Kitty, before you fainted, did you have a headache or stomachache of some sort ?" He asked.

"I had both. And i was feeling nauseous." I answered.

"Judging by this and your fever, you probably have some Stomach flu. It's an infection in the intestines. It has an incubation period of 1 to 3 days, during which no symptoms occur. Once symptoms appear, they usually last for 1 to 2 days, although symptoms may linger for as long as 10 days. It's often called a stomach bug as well." He explained.

Suddenly, Claire burst in, shrieking "What! Kitty has a bug in her stomach ? What is it ? An ant ? A spider ? I don't like spiders !" She seemed to be on the edge of crying. Bronwyn walked in and scooped Claire up in her arms. "Shhh, shhh... don't cry sweetie. Kitty doesn't have spiders in her stomach, a stomach bug is just the name." She said in a low voice. She walked out, closing the door behind her.

"How long have i slept ?" I asked, a little bit dizzy.

"For quite a few hours." Answered Millard.

"Let's just say that you missed both lunch and dinner." Added Victor.

At that moment, Miss Peregrine entered, and kicked everyone out of my room.

"How do you feel, miss O'Connor ?" She asked.

"I'm a little dizzy... and i have a slight headache too."

"Go to sleep, we'll see how you feel tomorrow morning. Sleep tight." She adjusted my blanket, before walking out, closing the door behind her. I quickly fell into a deep dreamless sleep.

When i awoke the next day, around eleven AM, i quickly noticed a terrible feeling that something was burning in my chest. I also had difficulty to swallow. It felt like there was something stuck in my throat. The pain struck me on different intensities, coming and going. My mouth tasted bitter, like i'd just drank lemon juice or something similar.

Enoch walked in my room to check on me, but ran to Miss Peregrine when he saw i was still not doing okay. She kneeled down next to me, asking me to describe my symptoms while Enoch bit his nails nervously. She quickly concluded that i had heartburn, and the only way would be of digesting the food that had caused it. Lucky for me, i had barely eaten the day before, so it should go quickly.

Miss Peregrine asked Enoch to fetch me a glass of water and a ripe banana, which she said could help get rid of the heartburn. She then sat on a chair next to me, and put fresh wet towels on my forehead to help me cool off. When Enoch came back, he and Miss P helped me to sit by replacing my pillows so they would support my back. I ate my banana, and drank the water by taking slow gulps.

Victor also came in, and Enoch tried make him go away, but my boyfriend threatened to throw him out of the window if Enoch didn't let him see me. Miss Peregrine was not happy with that, and escorted them out, to leave me alone.

I felt extremely tired, and dozed off.

I awoke early the next morning, and i was glad to find that my chest pain and the lump in my throat were gone. I was feeling great, except maybe for a runny nose and a sore throat, which i attributed to my illnesses of the past days. As i tried to get up, i had a coughing fit, the kind that ends by almost throwing up. It drew Enoch and Victor in my room, who tried to make me go back into my bed.

But i really was tired of being in my bed, and persisted in getting up. They both gave up, and i got up and dressed. I then came out of my room, where i started feeling extremely cold, so i went back to get a sweater. As i came out though, i encountered Miss Peregrine, who insisted i got back to bed as i was shivering with cold. She then pressed her hand to my forehead, and told me i was burning hot.

So i unwillingly went back to bed, and sneezed a couple of times in my sleeve. Victor had heard me, and brought me a box of tissues. He then insisted on giving me his blanket, because i was still shivering despite the blanket and sweater. Enoch kept bringing me something hot to drink, saying that it was important to stay hydrated. Hugh even gave me some of his bees' honey to help with my sore throat.

At lunch, my brother and my boyfriend seemed to have declared a truce, for they brought me a hot bowl of chicken soup, without even arguing. This was definitely an improvement. The soup was delicious, and it definitely helped with my sore throat. The boys then went back downstairs, and i drifted off to sleep.

When i awoke the next morning, the first thing i wanted to do was to check on Kitty. I walked out of my room wearing my pajamas, and went straight into my little sister's room. She was still asleep. I placed my hand on her forehead, and i was happy to know her temperature seemed normal. I picked up her used tissues that had fallen next to her trash can and her old glass of water, and walked out.

I threw the tissues away, placed the glass in the sink and washed my hands. I made a new glass of water, and as i was about to bring it back to my sleeping sister i encountered Victor in the corridor.

"What are you doing ?" He asked.

"Good morning to you too. I'm going to give this to Kitty." I answered, rolling my eyes.

He insisted on following me to check on her, and he was disappointed to see that she was asleep but relieved to see she seemed to be doing better. We waited for an hour, two, three... eventually it was the afternoon and Kitty had still not woken up.

We tried gently shaking her, calling her, clapping next to her ears. At one point we even wondered if she had died. Miss Peregrine checked her pulse and stated it seemed normal. Some others would sometimes walk in, their eyes going between Kitty, Victor and me.

I could feel their pity for us, and it annoyed me. We stayed by her side all day, ignoring the others, who said we had to eat. We both held on to her hands to soothe her when she was mumbling nervously in her sleep, and we took turns to give her fresh water on the rare occasions she woke up, even if just for a few seconds.

We decided to take turns watching over her for the night, me taking the first half. I watched over her until eleven thirty, where Victor arrived and sent me to my bedroom. After eating an apple, i slid into my covers and fell asleep.

I was abruptly awoken before sunrise, by Victor, who had come to tell me Kitty had woken up.

Myron Bentham (LoS Spoilers)

Myron Bentham: "I have nothing to hide"

Also Myron Bentham:

Kidnaps people from loops and pretends they're wax figures

Tricks his friend into having part of his soul removed and keeps the soul for himself instead of using it as a weapon against the hollows

Betrays people countless times

Kidnaps his own sister and justifies it by her lack of forgiveness towards him for his countless betrayals

Kidnaps his sister while knowing all too well that their twisted brother could hurt her very badly

Pretends to care for a lot of people, but probably doesn't

Is a liar

Is basically always ready to betray people if it benefits him

In conclusion: he has a lot to hide (but he is imo one of the most interesting characters, and one of my favorites!)

Feel free to add things to this list!

Review of Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs

Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs is the third novel in the Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children series. I have also reviewed the previous two books, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children and Hollow City.

This review may contain spoilers. This review contains affiliate links. I may earn a small commission off of qualifying purchases made through the links on this page at no extra cost to you.

After the events of Hollow City, Jacob, Emma, and Addison on are on their own in their quest to rescue Miss Peregrine from the wights. And now the wights have the rest of their friends as well. With the help of the intrepid Addison’s Peculiar-sensitive nose, they are able to track the wights and their captives to the loop entrance leading to Devil’s Acre. They must pay for passage from a mysterious boatman, who warns them to trust no one and swears not to help them beyond transporting them safely to the shore.

Setting

While Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs begins in modern-day London, but by chapter two Jacob, Emma, and Addison are in Devil’s Acre. The exact year of the time loop is never stated, however, it was long before the invention of modern plumbing as its inhabitants dump their waste in the river. Sharon, the boatman, describes Devil’s Acre as containing, “Nasty things… Dreadful things. Vile things. Anything you like, so long as what you like is nasty, dreadful, and vile…” It is home to outlaws, mercenaries, and exiles.

Ransom Riggs’ talent for descriptive writing means that we get to see Devil’s Acre in sordid detail, from the stinking water of The Ditch to the flower boxes on Oozing Street.

Continue reading below or on my website.

Characters

I was pleased that Addison the talking boxer returned in this book, as I enjoyed him immensely in Hollow City. He is proud, courageous, and loyal to the point of recklessness, as indicated by how he charges off anytime he thinks Miss Wren, his ymbryne, is nearby. In fact, his pride and recklessness results in him often blurting things out, revealing that he is a Peculiar dog at inappropriate times, such as around Normals.

Jacob grows braver and more sure of himself. However, he retains his natural timidity, which means that he is cautious and doesn’t fall victim to the typical male protagonist brashness. If Jacob had his way, there would always be time to come up with a plan. That’s not his reality, though, so he has learned to be more flexible and to think on his feet as the series grows on. I’m very pleased with his growth from a bored, nihilistic teenager to a brave, selfless young man.

The brashness belongs to Emma. Emma has a strong sense of justice, which gets them into more than one mess. She can’t bring herself to look away from people being treated poorly, even for the sake of rescuing Miss Peregrine, who she loves like a mother. She is far more than a love interest, and does her part to advance the plot.

There were also a number of new characters introduced in this book.

Sharon

I knew from the moment we met our seven-foot-tall, hooded boatman that I was going to love him. He’s sarcastic, he’s morally-ambiguous, he’s got pet rats that he refers to himself as “daddy” to. I was guaranteed to like him. So I hope that he would stick around for more than that one scene, and sure enough Emma and Jacob were able to convince him to help them navigate Devil’s Acre. Sharon is a Peculiar, but his power is never explained. I, personally, am assuming it has to do with rat communication. Sharon is a nuanced, round character, and he is my favourite of the new characters in Library of Souls.

Mr. Bentham

The younger of Miss Peregrine’s brothers. The council of ymbrynes exiled him to Devil’s Acre for his part in creating the hollows. Bentham is weak both physically and mentally, often requiring his grimbear bodyguard PT to carry him around his own house. He has a checkered past of good deeds and bad, and neither Emma nor Jacob trust him despite the assistance he renders to them.

Caul

The older of Miss Peregrine’s two brothers. Caul, whose birth name is Jack, is the leader of the wights. While he appeared in Hollow City, we get to see more of him as a character in Library of Souls. Caul is sadistic and selfish, with no loyalty to his own men or his siblings. All Caul wants is to rule the world. To achieve that, there is nothing he isn’t willing to do. Torture children? Threaten his own brother? All fine in Caul’s book. While his motives aren’t complex, he is sensible enough to never put himself in harm’s way. He holds deep bitterness for his sister, Miss Peregrine’s, status as an ymbryne, which gives her great status in matriarchal Peculiar society. This seems to have factored in to his desire to rule Peculiardom as its king.

Mother Dust

Mother Dust is not a major character, but I feel she is worth mentioning.  She is a healer in Bentham’s employ who gives Emma and Jacob a tool to help them infiltrate the wights’ fortress. To use her healing power, she has to rub her flesh into dust to sprinkle on wounds. This means that her power harms her each time its used. When Emma asked her about it, Mother Dust said through her assistant Reynaldo that this is how she was chosen to serve. The narrative implies that she has no tongue, so she never speaks directly. Reynaldo translates everything she says. Mother Dust might be French, as Reynaldo has a French accent.

Final Thoughts on Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs

I loved Library of Souls from start to finish. It was one of those books that I was sad to see end, though I was satisfied by the conclusion. The first thing I did after reading the last page was excitedly tell all my friends how much I enjoyed the book.

I know that there are more books in the series, so I’ll definitely be picking them up. Library of Souls tied up the loose ends from the previous two books, so I’m curious about what the other books will be about.

Definitely recommended! However, there are applicable trigger warnings: torture, madness, human experimentation, unlawful confinement, slavery, drugs, needles, blood, injury, and child abuse.

My headcanons

Miss Peregrine is very afraid of Grimbears (due to what happened in LOS)

Murnau was a cannibal

Caul knew that Bentham's statues were humans, but he didn't mess with them because he thought they were actually stuffed dead people.

Bentham's Grimbear was killed from the battle of LOS. (I had a theory that he survived and became a hollow unlike anything he's ever seen, but it's just a theory)

Abe must have seen Golan thousands of times and never identified him as a wight.

Emma, Millard, Fiona and Hugh must blame themselves for what happened to Charlotte.

Claire is afraid of Enoch's humunculi and wants them far away from her dolls and stuffed animals.

Olive sleeps on the bottom bunk bed, but instead of her mattress being on top of the bottom bunk, it is stuck under the top bunk, so that she doesn't need to be tied to her bed and can sleep more comfortably (I'll draw this later)

Caul was never punished for attacking Miss P when he was a child, which is why she is so resentful and says he was too spoiled, after all he did not bear the consequences of his actions

Ymbrynes feel pain when transforming into birds, all their bones change at once and their entire body is forced to shrink, probably the faster the transformation the less pain.

Ymbrynes feel the peculiarities of others, they cannot identify which one it is, but they feel that a Child is peculiar. So a ymbryne identified baby Jacob's peculiarity , so the peregrine identified Abe's Peculiarity , and so the miss P always knows when Millard is present.

If You're Having a Bad Day

Just remember:

Millard can juggle

Millard is allergic to grimbear dander and almond butter

Hugh love love LOVES honey and probably has a gigantic sweet tooth

Emma and Bronwyn are best friends and probably have little chats over tea or something

Fiona has the kids sit on a vine and she grows it as tall as she can

Hugh will follow all of his loved ones to the ends of the earth and he'll be damned if they get hurt

Bronwyn refers to Jacob as "brother" in book two

Horace teases the little ones by telling them that they'd taste good to hollows

Enoch barely goes up to Jacob's chest on his tiptoes

Once upon a peculiar time, in a forest deep and ancient, there roamed a great many animals. There were rabbits and deer and foxes, just as there are in every forest, but there were animals of a less common sort, too, like stilt-legged grimbears and two headed lynxes and talking emu-raffes. These peculiar animals were a favorite target of hunters, who loved to shoot them and mount them on walls, and show them off to their hunter friends, but loved even more to sell them to zookeepers, who would lock them in cages and charge money to view them. Now, you might think it would be far better to be locked in a cage than to be shot and mounted upon a wall, but peculiar creatures must roam free to be happy, and after while the spirits of caged ones wither, and they begin to envy their wall-mounted friends... https://www.instagram.com/p/B2YimqjB37WYv4ao_e9ChEQHEHHBON9C0MSegs0/?igshid=12u7v1fcuylls
