A play by play of me reading the first Poldark novel.

just some rambling hopefully funny thoughts of mine i jotted down as i read the book

Mrs choaks lisp is the worst thing I have ever read

Christ, I didn't understand a word Jud is saying and I'm from Belfast we talk exactly the same.

Ross comparing Elizabeth to a tiny cloud is adorable

"Mrs Chynoweth as beautiful as a well bread female eagle " is a nice way of saying she's got a huge nose.

I find it interesting that book Ross and George have their features swapped with TV versions. George has big brown eyes like Aiden turner and Ross has jack farthings mercury blue ones.

I wonder how valentine will look in the books

That cockfighting didn't half drag on. George tried to stop it tho. Guess he's an animal lover?

Right, at the end of the wedding we see Georges mom and dad. But in the TV show he quite clearly states his dad at least is dead. And given his comparison of himself to Ross , his mom too. Only Cary is there but he isn't in this book at all

That want wit whitworth makes an early appearance, but he doesn’t do anything so what’s the point of mentioning him?

Ruth Teague getting shat on from page 1 seems a tad unnecessary. Not her fault she's ugly, Winston, you wrote her that way.

Ok I’m on the dislike ruth train too. An ugly face is one thing, an ugly personality is quite another

Page 87 all the smells. I’m starting to think Ross has a scent kink.

Demelza is 13, Ross is 24 and I am uncomfortable.I know there’s nothing between them right now but still.

Elizabeth explains herself much better than the TV show and I think they should have had this word for word. Ross is just being a Lil bitch. Nothing new there then.

I'm going to start saying "scat un up" instead of shit em up or fuck em up. It just has a little *kisses fingers* somthin spicy

Ross is a cat person and I love Tabitha bethia . but I did keep reading it as bridge to Terabithia

Why the fuck does Charles keep barking ….AARF!

Pg202 Francis is a big bitch baby….NO CHANGE THERE THEN.

Seriously though Francis is fucking stupid. The fuck is wrong with the Poldark men? Bucha big bitch babies with memories as short as their di-

I've just been advised not to finish that sentence.

But I will point out that not 6 months later ( and later in the book) Francis is sleeping with prostitutes and yet he’s prissy with captain blamey??? Get ur head out of ur ass pls Francis.

The phrase " to take a vomit and rest until supper " is the worst line in English literature.

Yes, including everything in the 50 shades books.

[Jack cobbledick sounds like a pornstar not a farmhand and I’m glad he wasn’t in the tv show.

Dr choak continues to annoy and Ross describing Elizabeth continues to my eternal delight.

Lol no joke dr choak can go hang.

Oh my god Ruth! Wind your neck in!

Francis continues to disappoint by trying to force Elizabeth to fuck. A) Gross and B) YOUR DADS JUST HAD A HEARTATTACK MAN WHATS WRONG WITH YOU???

Oh, and now he’s being huffy and jealous with her? Ok I get that in the 1700s women were basically powerless and had to do what their husbands said but WHAT right has he to be pissy with her? He drinks and gambles and goes cavorting with George Warleggan “ 3 or 4 nights a week” and leaves her all alone and still demands she have sex again RIGHT AFTER HIS DAD HAD A HEART ATTACK.

I’m just.

You’re better than this Francis.

Would much have preferred Georges dad to be in charge of Jim carter's trial than the random Jonny's we got in the tv series. Show us the whole family is unlikable.

But I suppose Nicolas and mary are dead so I guess these random tv people will do.

Ross’s speech loses something for not having been delivered in my living room by a slightly bewildered Aiden turner wondering why I’m sitting in my pyjamas asking him to defend a fictional character verbatim.

Ok so Mel is now 17 when she and Ross do the woohoo but I'm pretty sure legal age has always been 16 so why are people still pissed?

Wait just googled it and it is in fact 13 in Poldark times. So, it's fine? She’s 17 I don’t get the ire from the other characters.1803 introduces the law that makes it 13 to crack down on child prostitution ( this part of the book being in 1780 something) so clearly not everyone has a problem with kids, as gross as that is.

Is it because she’s been there for so long? Like he’s grooming her? I just don’t understand the social thing, if someone does please explain it to me.

Side note I don’t condone these kinds of shenanigans irl, I’m just giving my thoughts as they come while I read the book.

Ooh but then Mel reminds him of his mother, and I feel skquicky. Never bring ur dead mother into the bedroom ,Ross.

Actually, just leave all your Mommy issues at the door.

Thank fuck it cut away before another sex scene. I’m so sick of reading them when they arent written by horny women on ao3.

Please don't describe grass touching you as sensuous because all I can think of is that Tumblr meme “ what if grass licked you when you walked on it “ “ I would do the splits”

So, is Ross...ace? Like he goes on about not having the normal appetites of a man and the only person he's slept with is Demelza who he's built up a friendship with. He even calls himself frigid (kind of,) on page 330 Demi maybe?

Pg 339 Demelza’s turn to be a big baby about Elizabeth. She’s not THAT pretty, calm down.

Pg 350 is just Ross and Demelza’s sex life . It talks about her being 2 different people, lady in the streets freak in the sheets of you will.

I'm choosing to interpret this as Ross bottoming .

Pg 360 Yep Ross is a sub and nothing will convince me otherwise

The last few chapters are him just pining after Demelza and it is freaking adorable. I would read 8 books of this .

Christmas at Trenwith sound shit. Honestly who wants a 2 hour and 40-minute dinner. Who tf can make conversation that long never mind eat that much food???

"George likes you" I knew it. He’s been pining for ross senpai from day 1. P 422

Actually, book George is generally far more agreeable than TV George. But that could be because graham wrote these years apart and didn’t quite know where he was going with George in the first book.

You know book Cornwall is much more accepting of Demelza too. She's a pretty singer and she does her best. 11/10 best wife.

Except ruth. Fuck off ruth.

Pg 446 is basically Demelza "why's them birds spotty they aint really spotty" Ross “go home Demelza Ur drunk."

Ok but why didn't Demelza tell Ros she was preggers? It just jumps to Julia being born in the first chap of the 2nd book. I know foetal alcohol syndrome won’t be discovered for like 200 years but why are they all drinking so much booze? Is the water not safe?

Ok final thoughts now I've literally just closed the dust jacket: wouldn’t have picked this up or read it without having seen the tv show, which was a lot more compelling, but the book was helped by me doing character voices.

Francis needs to buck up his fucking ideas before I reach into the pages and slap him.

I like Elizabeth much more in the book, not that I didn’t before its just she makes a better case for herself.

Demelza and ross’s relationship seems… a touch more verbally abusive than the tv show but I suppose the tv show wouldn’t have been such a big success if we didn’t like them and the books are probably truer to the era. And, without wishing to defend ross, he never actually follows through on his threats of violence or punishment. Demelza plays him like a fiddle and its glorious.

Polly choak, Ruth treneglos and her mother can all take a flying leap.

Actually, all of English high society can take a long walk off a short pier.

Wasn’t a bad book. Lacking in stakes, I think. and rather wordy compared to what I normally read. I consider myself at least somewhat well read and I had to google words to see what they meant. Do you know how long it’s been since last I had to do that? I’m not complaining it was just a strange departure from my normal novels. The mining talk was mercifully brief but If my memory of the tv show serves me it’ll be back with a vengeance soon. Overall not a bad book and although I very much doubt id have read it without the tv show I rather enjoyed it.

I’m going to start reading “Demelza” Now

Arty. Arty. Arty. Friend,,, I know like two things about fnaf but please yell at me abt ur crossover. I lovm it so much,,,

:D !!!

*paps table like bongo cat* I will happily screech about my crossover au cuz I’m having so much fun with it—

Ok ok so— first things first— some details may change as I work more stuff out??? But??? This is stuff I have figured out for sure so far

Aiden works at this place as a mechanic. He used to be a night guard, but has since swapped positions since others (including Journal) were able to fill it for him

Aiden fills ph/one guy’s role if we’re taking game mechanics

Journal is a new security guard who just started doing the night shift. He’s easily frightened, a bit anxious, and real nervous about his job, but he’s doing his best. He took the job cuz he’s low on money, and his friend Aiden convinced him it wasn’t so bad

Journal takes the role of player/night guard here!

Evangel made this place, and the animatronics. Unsure exactly why, but it’s still vaguely Chuck E. Cheese like in terms of what the establishment is

Evangel went wacko for some reason and ends up cursing said animatronics Bc reasons

She’s like. A weird combo of the higher ups in f/naf and also maybe pur/ple guy??? She doesn’t murder anyone but she did make the place n does Heck around w/the animatronics. Idk, I’m not up to date on current fn/af lore, so I can’t be sure ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Roo is actually the oldest animatronic. He’s got a lot of wear and tear, and his jaw doesn’t shut all the way anymore, but he’s still functional. He was recently taken off the main stage for repairs. He may look scary, but he’s actually jus rlly anxious n needs reassurance that he’s safe n ok.

Hence why he fills f/oxy’s role!!! (need to keep an eye on him via cameras or he’ll book it down to ur office to murder u for snuggles)

Roo and Aiden are close bc he goes to the mechanic a lot for fixing

Second oldest is ruffy! He was sort of started in production, but when evangel realized he’d probably scare more kids than he’d entertain, she set him aside for scrap metal. Oddly enough, he still manages to function. He crawls around everywhere, knows how to get into vents, and is often seen on the ceiling. He’s a helpful guy tho!!! He just wants to make people happy, even if evangel was convinced he couldn’t

He fills a role similar to mangle here! (Static comes out instead of a voice, broken parts, haphazardly shoved together n looks like a mess of parts, crawls on ceiling, still wants to be loved)

Aaaand last but not least, we have seraph!!! She’s the newest animatronic, and she’s a singer/dancer!!! There was a malfunction when evangel was making her eyes, so she can’t open them v much or see well, but uses touch/a form of echolocation to find her way around. She’s very kind and gentle, and just wants to do her best to entertain and keep kids happy. She looks up to and admires Roo a lot.

(Roo absolutely loves her singing too!!! Someone let them perform together I’m begging u—))

Seraph fills a role similar to ba/llora here!!! (Shut eyes, makes music all the time which is used to locate her, dances, fancy n shiny n new)

Aaaaand I’ve got more that would go along with how the actual “game” would work (ex: how the nights go, what u use to keep track of em, do they kill or do they not, what happens as stuff progresses, etc) but I’ve... prolly rambled enough in one ask ‘^^

#whoop that got long—#... and i have more stuff to say...#but h #thats enough for one ask ‘^^#i hope u enjoy the lil blurb here fam ;w;#im glad u like the new au hfjjsks #arty asks #fnae!au #afw
