#and one of his favorite cars

[kennabeth]

I commissioned @littlestpersimmon to draw my favorite character ever, dustfinger from inkheart, and I have not stopped staring in actual awe since he finished it. my coworkers can vouch that I cried in public over seeing it for the first time lol.

#i WILL be commissioning again if i can nab a slot once my car stops bleeding me dry #please follow him im sure youve seen me say so already but hes my favorite artist ever #agonizing over whether i want next time to be more inkworld characters or one of my ocs #if yall know tanith or izumi how killer would they be in his style #inkheart #says kenna #dustfinger

HEY. HEY.

HEY @re-dracula WHAT GAVE YOU THE RIGHT TO HAVE JONATHAN ACTUALLY READING THAT PASSAGE OUT LOUD BEHIND SEWARD DESCRIBING THE SCENE, HUH? WITH THE TEARS IN HIS VOICE AND THE PAUSING AND THE SHORT LITTLE INHALES AND THE VOICE CRACKS? WAS IT TRULY NECESSARY??? I WAS ALREADY CRYING. I DIDN'T NEED THIS TOO. WHAT THE FUCK.

#dracula #dracula daily #re: dracula #re dracula #to be clear this is meant in sarcastic jest this episode was a beautifully crafted piece of art and I'm blown away by the cast and #the producers and the editors... holy fucking shit I know today's was a short episode but I think it's taken its place as my favorite so fa #it beat out jonathan fuckin dropping out of the sky in front of drac with his fuckin knife out in order to protect his wife which was ALSO #very good and made me cheer out loud in my car but THIS #also why does jack get to narrate all the dope ass dramatic scenes #I wonder if Mina was like #no really y'all this dude has the best voice and grammar structure for storytelling #we gotta let him keep doing the phonograph thing and I'll just keep copying it down later #tbh she's so valid for that also y'all are so valid for casting jonny sims in this role bc he SHINES when he's describing emotional shit #he NAILS the middle ground between conveying the emotion of a scene and still being a separate narrator #it's almost like he did a whole podcast of that one time ANYWAY my point is y'all are incredible and I am so fuckin glad y'all decided to #start this project

will being a brat is not only so incredibly important to me, it’s also canon

How long have you been married and how did you know it was the right person 😔

i’ll try to not make this an essay. we just celebrated four years together, three married, on halloween! i’ll say i knew pretty quickly. i think within three conversations i was thinking “this is someone i’m going to love very very much.” i’ve never been very good at being. normal sjdksjsj so i’m pretty sure our first convos consisted of me rambling about mothman for some reason? i was terrified of being annoying but i also just. enjoyed talking to him so much. there’s a quote from if beale street could talk where james baldwin writes, “fonny liked me so much that it didn’t occur to him that he loved me,” and that’s exactly how it felt. there has always been just a sense of understanding between us, things we communicate w/o words. he’s my best friend and it’s absolutely insane to me that he loves me this much too???

#✉️ #sorry for being gay it’s his bday and i miss him bc i was exposed to someone w covid so i can’t see him today :( #oh i also knew when he told me that my singing voice is one of his favorite sounds. i love to sing but im really shy ab it #and singing in the car is one of my fav things. i love holding his hand and singing to my silly lil playlist in the car!!!! #he’s my passenger seat princess <3 #feel free to ask ab my husband i love talking ab him lol

"Falling into place... blah blah blah" (New York, Sep 9 2023)

#i like it when he mocks the crowd not his own songs.... #first the thing about emphasizing how he made arabella up now making fun of the lyrics #a decade ago these were his favorite words in all of his songs #anyway i love her but if no one's happy just drop it from the setlist dude no one would mind i'm sure. make room for more the car songs #arctic monkeys #alex turner #the car #show

i genuinely love when you can tell an older show was Not made with high quality video viewing in mind. i am watching knight rider and constantly seeing all the little mistakes they surely brushed under the rug thinking nobody would see them on their crunchy little CRTs back in the 80s, that are huge attention grabbers now in HD fullscreen on my 3 foot computer monitor

the biggest one of course is all the drivers/controllers for the (in-universe) self driving car, kitt. there's guys tucked down in the footwells who can't always stay out of the shot. there's a guy who has a Car Seat Suit to blend in and look like the drivers seat from a distance, but you can always tell when that's the method they're using for a particular shot because its so much thicker than the passenger seat next to it and the headrest is missing it's cutout section. in at least one instance he starts taking the suit off too early, on a focus shot of the damn car, so its REAL visible.

all the extremely obvious stunt drivers or performers who look nothing like the character they're supposed to be

props, such as animals, vanishing from the car interior for stunt/race sequences.

the production crew (or their shadows) being visible in the background. only at a glance, but its especially hilarious in shots where nobody else is supposed to be around

the camera panning out from a sound stage set far enough that you can actually see over the edges of the set and into the stage they were filming in. mostly this happens with their truck trailer mobile unit thing.

this one isn't a mistake but every time the car "turbo jumps" they CLEARLY hide the ramp behind another car, a prop, the environment, and its just. so charming. sometimes its blatantly on screen just for a moment. like... of Course in real life this car isn't magically leaping 20 feet, of course its a ramp, but it's still so silly and fun to be reminded of how they were doing those stunts to begin with.

also not really a mistake but related, the bracket they keep on the front of the car for stunt work.... is just left on half the time. cuz it's a pain to take on and off.

and there are more examples that are more unique that haven't cemented themselves in my head well yet, but these are the more notable or common things i see and it's really charming. if i'm not giggling to myself noticing the "seams" and flaws and so human imperfections of your show or movie what EVEN is the point. hollywood is too flashy these days i think!

#liz blogs #knight rider #kr #tv production #1980s #television #i dont even know if this is a 'older tv' thing or if its just a knight rider thing because i've seen all of classic columbo at this point #and i think i can think of... maybe one or two times you saw the edges of a sound stage room. and thats it #i dont know Why its like this i dont know how common it is for shows of the era but i love it to bits. cannot get through an episode #with somebody without pointing out the quirky little things i notice. #y'know what hollywood really can burn there is such a great backlog of media to watch #i need to gif that guy pulling off his Seat Costume in the MIDDLE of the SHOT. that was so fucking funny. my favorite blooper so far #a lot of these have to do with kitt bc he IS a prop but its extremely funny how hard they push the 'HES INDESTRUCTIBLE' thing #and every other boost landing has the car looking like its gonna snap in fucking half like a twig. got some ROUGH landings #i wanna know how many stunt kitts they went through they really beat the shit outta those cars sometimes #i think if this show were free on streaming like columbo way more people on this site would like it it is a weirdly charming little show

Wait holdup what’s this about Howdy’s shop burning down and nearly taking him with it?? (talking about human au)

oh yeah lmfao it caught fire

it wasn't like... foul play or anything. in my mind it was some sort of electrical failure or bizarre accident. like a lightning strike! actually wait i like that lightning strike idea bc then it could be Raining for this very dramatic scene and i do love me some rain juxtaposing fire <3

and Howdy would've been fine! he got all of his employees and customers out of the building, including himself. he handed them off to Barnaby & Wally, who had been swinging by for dinner with fantastic timing (the fire department was just then arriving). then, like an idiot, Howdy went right back inside the Very On Fire building!

bc, ok, he lives in his store. specifically, above it. the ground floor is the store, then there's a staircase going up to an apartment. and naturally, Howdy was not gonna abandon all of his / the store's legal documents (also his coupon stash) to burn.

so in his mind he was like "yeah ill just pop in, grab these very important files, and then get out. easy!". babe, you're giving Barnaby & Wally a heart attack. that's what you're doing. dumbass (affectionate)

but yeah he's in there, in the burning building, smoke everywhere. meanwhile outside firefighters (and Wally) have to physically hold Barnaby back from going in after Howdy, even though a few more firefighters already went in to find him. its all very dramatic! blah blah blah the front door becomes unusable, blah blah blah the apartment windows explode due to thermal stress & also bc i want them to, etc etc

long story short the firefighters get Howdy out through the back, and mostly unscathed at that! ofc smoke inhalation is a thing, he's got some minor cuts and burns, but it's really not that bad! lucky bastard! he gets taken to the hospital to get treated & make sure he's fine, and he is.

naturally he stays with Barnaby & Wally for a while. he doesn't have a say in the matter lol he was planning on getting a motel room or somethin, but Barnaby picked him up from the hospital, took him home, and went "alright the guest room is ready for you we can go shopping tomorrow for anything you need, you live here now". good thing Howdy rescued his coupons!

the fire damage to the building is, thankfully, mostly cosmetic. it takes a while to clean & fix it, but Howdy has great friends and a wonderful community to help out! everyone chips in, some fundraisers happen, Wally sells some Darling™️ Exclusives™️, etc. long story short they get the store back up & running, and with some new bells and whistles to go with it!

#the scene is Very Vivid in my head #i had to sneak some action drama in there somewhere!!!! #what better than a building fire!! what can i say! im a sucker for the #'character watches person they love run straight into danger & is unable to follow them' #'and so is forced to watch in terror unsure if the loved one will make it out alive' #trope!!! its damn good!!! ill never tire of it!!! #the rain glittering in the firelight! the red-blue of emergency lights! glass raining down! wet pavement & black smoke! #its about The Visuals!! #i think my favorite part of the Brain Scene is when they get howdy out & he's like. half collapsed on the curb w/ an oxygen mask #and barnaby is Hovering! very freaked out but also immensely relieved! as soon as he learns theyre taking howdy to the hospital #he sprints to his car to go follow the ambulance!! #(in my mind julie eddie and sally had shown up & wally stayed with them to answer questions / keep an eye on things) #but yeah! drama Babey!!! #rambles from the bog #wh modern human au #i feel so bad for howdy lmfao #like... that store is his Everything and it got crispied. so did his home. and pretty much all his possessions #i also feel very bad for barnaby! he has a bad year bc of Two Incidents! #barnaby 'if one more person i love winds up injured in the hospital im going to Lose It' b. beagle #barnaby: well that whole fire thing was a disaster but we're all okay <3 with any luck there'll be no more hospital visits <3 #wally: im about to end this mans whole career- #ough and the arc of howdy living with them for a bit.... ougggghhhh #bc he & barns are in that 'our mutual feelings are unspoken but we both Know' inbetween state #its like a trial run for their future lmfao #except. a depressed trial run. bc howdy is very fucking upset about losing his Home & Possessions #a piece of the world he'd carved out for himself that was His and no one else's #he has a period of pushing through with an 'everything is fine i can work w this' pained grin and emotional avoidance #until obviously he hits a wall and Crashes. depressy spaghetti time! #he'll be fine but he doesn't feel like it for a while <3 good thing he's got awesome friends to keep him afloat <3

rewatching carl

#taking this opportunity to ramble in the tags #i like this ep so much it's probably one of my favorites #it's so. it's. ghsdgjfshj. LOOK #compared to lets get shadowy ko was clearly more comfortable around venomous #ko was STARTING to think 'oh maaaybe he's not the worst dad in the world?' #and it gets thrown back at his face #i love the car scene. it has none of the show's usual bright colors or background music #it BUGS ME #which is GREAT because THATS THE EMOTION IM SUPPOSED TO FEEL #the feeling of 'it's all going downhill. darn' #and wow everything does go downhill so incredibly fast #it's like getting hit by three or four consecutive gut punches #and you feel terrible but WOW the episode is SO GOOD they sure know how to make me feel like crying! #yes i havent recovered. yes i know it's obvious. #*grabs passing stranger* CARL IS GOOD HERE'S A THREE HOUR TED TALK ON THE REASON WHY #incoherent ramblings

ok but the fact that "aziraphale is softening. they haven't spoken in a hundred years: he's realizing they're still friends" and "there's no need to thank me that's what...friends...are for" was in the same night is making me go INSANE

#we NEED to talk more abt the 1941 ep im so serious im not normal about it like i had such high expectations and it suppressed them all. #am i disappointed there wasn't a rejection scene like i predicted?? yes ofc but also aziraphale said he did the apology dance that year so #i wonder what else could've fucking happened #but anyway. let's focus on what DID happen: aziraphale literally GLOWING with love in the car. crowley telling him to shut up cause of a #compliment. aziraphale helping crowley out and crowley looking at him like 'you'd do that for me?'. crowley not only letting aziraphale #practice magic with him but ACTIVELY playing a character to help him and i mean that scene was literally just crowley flirting with him #crowley indulging aziraphale by going to the magic shop with him and agreeing to participate in his show despite the fact that he NEVER EVEN #SHOT A GUN BEFORE. him just leafing thru the guidebook till he realizes there's a miracle blocker than starting to frantically flip thru it #her hands SHAKING on the gun and them being so afraid of hurting az. 'no paperwork :))' sure my guy that's what u r so happy about ofc #'but do u really think it went well' 'absolutely' with such sincerity. the book description saying smth abt ifa demon were to happen across #aziraphale they should report it immediately to the demon crowley. 'you could've just walked away' 'well you said 'trust me'' 'and you did' #its just. its one of my favorite eps it's so nice #good omens #azicrow #good omens s2 #aziracrow #go s2 spoilers #go s2 #good omens script book #good omens s2 spoilers #aziraphale x crowley

Ok last post tonight thinking about this too much could make me crazy. I need to steal Liz’s phone or hack into her iCloud or something I want all the silly casual Red photos

#objectively isn’t it a bit dangerous for liz to have photographs of him. but subjectively yayyyyyy #I want all of them. the photos she sneaks of him when he’s not paying attention. when he dozes off in the car. getting a new hat… #a photo of his hands while he’s unconscious in a hospital bed for the 100th time. it comforts her to look at it when she can’t be at his si #*side #and photos like these the one he lets her take. maybe it’s a little reckless but he’s happy his guard is down #a photo of them together at his favorite restaurant in sorrento. holding a puppy at heddie’s dog grooming business. #I already have a folder of JS photos that are so boyfriend but that isn’t enough. it isn’t the same #I need casual everyday bf raymond….. #james spader #the blacklist #raymond reddington #*

Happy countdown to Dougmas!!

You know what, I’m curious, what do you think this man’s car is like? Like the maintenance, trash everywhere, stickers galore?

I know Lovelace and Minkowski are getting visceral reactions to that thing.

oh, it's disgusting. it's uninhabitable. eiffel desperately wants a cool car, but he's got the most affordable, 'dependable' used car he could find. canonically used to drive a corolla. it came pre-dented and with one door that's a different color. constantly sounds like it's on the verge of dying. looks like it's being held together by stickers alone. bobbleheads on the dash. he uses the backseat as storage for god knows what. absolutely full of garbage inside; you have to shove it aside to make space. smells like stale cigarette smoke and old fast food wrappers in there. the seats have mystery stains and are weirdly sticky from all the stuff he's spilled on them. check engine light permanently on. eiffel knows enough about cars to do his own maintenance, but that works against him: because he can do it, he won't pay someone else to do it, but he doesn't want to do it, so he puts it off until something breaks. the only things he keeps in good shape are the radio and his stack of CDs.

#happy almost dougmas!! dougmas eve... #i love this question thank you. one of my favorite topics #just the other day i sent my friends that picture of someone's nasty car that's captioned like #'forget passenger princess you ever been a passenger peasant' i could be that for him. well anyway #minkowski and lovelace fully refuse to get in his car i think #asks

so sorry but it does throw me off when i see cas calling dean "baby"

#or babe. other pet names are eh but #i think he calls dean babe ONCE and dean is like excuse me what the fuck did you just say to me #it sounds wrong #and i think cas just does it bc he thinks that's how you're supposed to refer to the love of your life #i think he calls dean ''my love'' i think he says it in the same tone as ''you can't save everyone my friend'' #i also think he says it in multiple languages #BUT also. just ''dean'' #it's in the way he says it like nothing else could better express his love #DEAN calls cas babe though #not baby because that is the car and that's a hard boundary that cas set #dean you will not refer to me the same way you do your car #also at the beginning he was disgruntled. dean i am not an infant #but then it clicked that it wasn't another baby in a trenchcoat incident #dean also calls him lots of pet names that start off as jokes and stick :) #''good morning sunshine'' -> just sunshine as a pet name #angel as a joke that turns into something reverent and serious #honey when he's joking about being old men but maybe he WANTS to be an old man with cas #SWEETHEART. sweetheart is cute and cheesy and one of cas' favorites #also buddy (you are the love of my life) pal (please never leave me again) and man (you mean everything to me)

i don't wanna take over the world, it sounds like a lot. but you know, laying siege to a golf course sounds really nice sometimes
