"It's not possible… this. Why can't you see that?" "We just brought a stag-headed girl to an orphanage to be looked after by a woman with fire for hands and a… debutante giantess! I think what is possible is very much up for debate."

#the nevers #james norton #ben chaplin #lgbtq+ #frank mundi #hugo swann #gottagobackintime gifs #that scene where frank tells hugo to shut up is probably my favourite scene between them tbh #because it's so sweet #the teasing from hugo and you can tell that frank is trying not to smile when he says shut up #but then he ends up smiling anyway #and the way hugo looks at frank with like literal heart eyes makes me go 😭 #but I also love the scene where frank asks if everything's all right because he can tell something's off #but then he can't help but provoke hugo because then he'll get a reaction from him #but it ends up with them being super close and you can see frank fighting against himself #like he wants nothing more than to embrace hugo to kiss him #and you can see that hugo wants that too he wants to feel the comfort of frank in his arms #because he's going through a lot #but frank can't allow himself that so he walks away but he can't help but glance back at hugo as if he's almost changed his mind #god the acting these to did especially in the scenes they had together! #they have such little screen time together and yet you get these amazing scenes and you root for them #I was already a fan of james before this and he's the reason I started watching it but ben made it impossible for me to not become a fan of #him and frank quickly became my favourite character #imagine if he'd gotten to explore him even more #and I would have liked it if they hadn't killed hugo off #my god when he confessed his feelings for frank I just... and frank kind of rejecting him but also not #like he doesn't say that he doesn't want hugo too it's more he can't allow himself that happiness #and I can't imagine the guilt he feels when he's sitting on the stairs after hugo has died in his arms #because he didn't say that he wanted to be with him too yes he kissed him and it's clear that he reciprocates hugo's feelings and hugo #knows it too and he dies knowing that frank loves him but frank ends up losing him

Ben Chaplin is my Elijah Baley.

The unassuming British actor with smouldering, darkly handsome looks may not be the thinking woman's crumpet, but has the right touch (heh) of reserved, intense, brooding sensitivity. And he's played several gay men.

I started thinking about actors when I cast Matt Bomer as Daneel and entertained the idea of Pedro Pascal for Elijah, but Pascal just didn't feel right to me. Too sensing, too much of an extroverted chad. So I Googled around for anyone who might fit the bill, and found this most suitable fellow. His screen career is somewhat middling and mostly supporting roles, but he's been in critically acclaimed theatre.

I happily cast him and made (+AI) a ton of (yet-to-be-posted) images of him as Elijah before I ever even saw a single performance of his. Then I watched The Nevers. And it confirmed that I was right. My husband agrees!

I also wanted to keep him all to myself, but I decided to share my secret since my book covers modeled on his likeness were appreciated.

Tags that I totally agree with. Like, I love Daneel, but Elijah is where it's at 🔥

Behold, his gay roles...

1. As Basil getting intimate with Dorian in Dorian Gray (2009):

Imagine this as Elijah making/receiving his offer to Daneel at the beginning of No Unnecessary Distinctions - Chapter 1

2. As Sir Thomas living in secret as a monk, growing close to Brother Matthias, in World Without End (2012):

Imagine this as Elijah weeping over Daneel in Positronic Resistance

3. As gruff conflicted closeted detective Frank Mundi, who's having an uncomfortable secret dalliance with posh libertine Hugo Swann, in The Nevers (2021):

The alcoholism and physical aggression isn't very Elijah, but he’s very repressed and growls about “justice” a lot and gets booted off the case, as per required by Detective Tropes. In a tense yet tender standoff with a tormented/abused mental patient turned serial murderess, she tells him:

“You'd be a good father. Can see that. Sad eyes. Kind, soft bit in the corner.”

That's literally Elijah.

The one time Hugo made Frank smile, and he tried very hard not to, because he is a Gruff Tsundere Detective™️:

Ben Chaplin quote on Frank Mundi (from above interview):

“…he carries his own secrets and battles his own demons. It’s to do with Frank’s Elijah’s sexuality. There has been dalliances between Hugo and Frank Daneel and Elijah. There’s an attraction that he finds upsetting, and worrying, and confusing. He’s absolutely torn and a complete mess about it. There’s this ‘push me, pull me’ agony going on. And shame, great shame about it.”

Need I say more?

if Elijah wore glasses...

Let it be known that @see-fee could give Nina Gold a run for her money :P

Twixt: A Documentary by Gia Coppola

When struggling supernatural fiction writer Hall Baltimore (Val Kilmer) arrives in an isolated small town as part of his book tour, he hears about the local lore of vampires and an infamous mass murder. Eager for inspiration, Baltimore is swept into a surreal fever dream of eccentric characters — from the oddball sheriff (Bruce Dern) to the ghost of a young girl (Elle Fanning) to visions of Edgar Allan Poe (Ben Chaplin) — that forces him to confront his own troubled past.

Pre-order B'Twixt Now and Sunrise.
