To Phryne, murder investigations were not merely a hobby that occupied her free time and challenged her wits. She couldn’t save the whole world, but by solving cases, she sought justice for those who, dead or alive, couldn’t speak for themselves.
********************
p.s. The quote is from Kerry Greenwood’s latest Phryne book series, Murder in Williamstown. The image is from TV series S3E6 Death at the Grand.

okay so death at the grand and her dad being back and ugh i love watching phryne when her dad is around. the unwanted vulnerability and the role she has to assume when he’s there - and i imagine that was her role as a child, what with her dad’s antics and frivolity, and her mother’s ’nerves’ and her sister being younger (and then gone), and i wonder if phryne was the one to hold it all together, to assume responsibility, to be the one caregiving more often than receiving it. (and how that feeds into both her need to be independent and free of any commitments, as well as her need to help people).
between her parent’s marriage and her experience with rene, phryne makes so much sense and i just love how we are always - always - shown and never told who she is and honestly it’s my favourite thing about this show. it always just shows you, never tells you - be that the characters or the love story.
for example, this scene, and there’s just something so intimate about this, the way it is only ever jack that gets ~this phryne. the sister, the daughter, the collingwood kid

and man i knew they’d be waltzing from the moment they first set foot in that ballroom and it absolutely delivered 🥺
mother blamed it all on his dancing - claimed one whirl in his arms forced all reason from her head. the way she dismisses it as fanciful nonsense only to taste some of that medicine herself 😮‍💨
Tumblr media
but what actually threw me was that it was a call-back to juana the mad and her saying this and him looking at her like that, and keeping step, always keeping step, her jack
Tumblr media
anyway, love the dad eps and the insight they bring into phryne and the in-law jack robinson and the way he is so clearly the one in a way no other man has been.
also, phryne playing poker is so fucking hot 😮‍💨

Robin!Jason, Dying: Honestly, this isn't even the most traumatic thing that has happened to me.
The Joker: Excuse me? this is so traumatic. I'm about to blow you up.
Robin!Jason: I was homeless at 9, a pasty man with a crowbar isn't really that scary compared to the streets of crime alley

Phryne’s relationship with her father was complicated. On the one hand, she loathed his excessive drinking, irresponsible spending, gambling, female companionship indiscretion, etc. On the other hand, they did seem to once have a close relationship, like he taught her card tricks and lock-picking and she watched her first footy match from her father's shoulders. As much as adult Phryne wanted to distant herself from her father, physically and emotionally, she was still her father’s daughter and shared some traits, one of them being strong-willed as mentioned by Kerry Greenwood in Book 17, Murder on a Midsummer Night. No wonder they butt heads so often.

p.s. Today (third Sunday in June) is Father’s Day in the U.S. and a number of other countries. This post is dedicated to all fathers, perfect or not.

The idea that it's 'shocking' or 'worrying' for there to be violence in a comedy show like OFMD is so funny when you consider that MASH - a show about a field army hospital in the middle of a bloody war that features blood, surgery and more than a little bit of death, as well as pretty emotionally/psychologically challenging scenes across the board - is one of the most popular and successful sitcoms of all time.
