I haven’t fallen in love with fictional characters and the world that they inhabit the way I have with Victoriocity in YEARS. It genuinely makes me feel like a kid again, the way I got when I was reading Harry Potter for the first time and the universe just was slowly unfolding and I wanted to know everything about it outside of the main storyline. And then you have the pitch perfect humor and characters I AM VERY DEEPLY INVESTED IN that are in the most perfect Victorian slow burn of all time where I KNOW SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN EVENTUALLY BUT ITS GOING TO TAKE YEARS AND ILL BE HANGING ON TO A DARCY HAND FLEX MOMENT FOR DEAR LIFE UNTIL IT DOES, and you got me hook, line and sinker.
But seriously, it’s well written. It engages in some trope but does so in a way that only good writing can where expectation is subverted and then not that that is surprising and delightful, The pacing is excellent. The world they’ve created is completely original but totally familiar which grounds the characters and the plot.
Anyway, I bought three copies of High Vaultage (audio, ebook and special edition hard copy of course), finished it, binged season three and now I need the link to the kickstarter for the next project because I NEED MORE. This is just going to be a fan account until then.

like Clara Entwhistle, we should all start referring to the Horrors™️ as the Midnight Overthinkies

Thinking about the protective way Clara tells Fleet not to go into DeVries' dangerous-looking training set-up, and about how when Septimus mentions Fleet's friend Fleet's immediate assumption is that he must mean Clara, and about "This is Miss Clara Entwhistle, my partner - in business, my business partner." / "I'm also his friend, but he doesn't like to say it.", and about how Fleet rarely smiles but he smiles to himself at Clara having a good idea (and Clara notices the change in his expression), and about how Clara is trying to work out Fleet's birthday through a process of elimination, and about how Fleet tries twice to shut down the conversation with Frances Byrne that's making Clara uncomfortable, and about how panicked and angry he sounds after realising she's been poisoned...

I think Fleet should get to be a lil’ inhuman and scary sometimes. As a treat.

The absolute fond exasperation — or perhaps exasperated fondness — in Fleet’s voice literally every time he’s talking with Clara is just fuckin chef’s kiss 😩

I heard that season 3 of Victoriocity was going to have a hound of the baskervilles vibe and lost my mind a little so have the dynamic duo investigating a house that for sure isn’t haunted. probably.

Because I cannot stop thinking about Victoriocity and I don’t belong to any sort of book club, I will be posting my errant thoughts and analysis here until further notice.
Today’s thought: I cannot wait for a deeper examination/exploration of the identities that both Fleet and Clara are struggling with. With Clara it’s very clearly the dichotomy between what is expected from her from society and her mother versus what she wants out of life. That’s definitely explored a little in S3 and I can’t wait to get more of that.
What is only hinted at though both in the book and in S3 and what I am DYING to learn more about is Fleets relationship with automatons post coming back to life. There is clearly so much tension between him and these robots and what happened to him and how he doesn’t fully KNOW what happened to him. Plus the whole determining whether an automaton is dead or merely off etc etc. So interesting and I can’t wait to get more hints of that as time goes on. Also there’s a part in the book about a railing that weirdly moved me and is where this thought comes from. You’ll know it when you see it which is why you should buy and read the book.
I wasn’t kidding when I said this was going to be a Victoriocity fan page until new content comes out. I may have been a bit hyperbolic but I wasn’t KIDDING.

FLEET: Hey, I uh. I got something for you.
CLARA: Fleet, you bought me a present? Is this because I saved your life again? Or is it for my birthday- which you should know, if you want to write it down, is April-
FLEET: Open it.
CLARA: So it's not for my birthday.
FLEET: Open it.
CLARA: April 15th.
FLEET: Open it!

A very happy 163rd(?) birthday to Clara Entwhistle.

Clara Entwhistle (reader of books on taxi regulations) would get along with Mina Harker (train fiend) so well <3
