Finally getting to watch one of the Law & Order: UK DVDs that I bought back in November. I needed to watch and listen to Jamie Bamber (and his gorgeous British accent). I need this for David Yates.

Tech Whiz ~ Matt Devlin - Part 2 Notes.
Here’s some things that I wrote down ages ago for the second part of ‘Tech Whiz’ that have just been sitting in my drafts. A story that I really want to continue but I just don’t think it’ll happen, not for a while anyway. So I thought these were kinda cute and wanted to share.  So enjoy 🥺 
Tumblr media
“He fancies you, you know.” She looked up from her paperwork to see Ronnie standing by the side of her desk.
Her eyebrows knitted together. “Who does?”
He crossed his arms over his chest. “Mattie.” She scoffed. “What? Don’t you believe me?”
“Have you seen him?”
“Yeah unfortunately I have to see him everyday.” They both smiled at each other.
Ronnie shrugged.
“He’s Matt Devlin! Charming and funny not to mention bloody Gorgeous! That man could literally have anyone he wanted. I doubt he go for someone like me.”
“Someone like you?” He shifted on the desk to face her completely.
“Alternative, think I’m a little bit too gothic for him. I could see him more with a beautiful elegant blonde on his arm.”
“Saylor.” Ronnie moved forward and grabbed her hand from the table. “Believe me when I say this, he likes you because you’re smart, funny and so different from everyone else.”
“He’s told you this?”
“Sweetheart I can’t get him to shut up about you after you’ve just said two words to each other in the office.” He just laughed at how shocked she was. “I’ll leave it with you.”
Just like that he left, she tried to go back to her paperwork but was too distracted by Ronnie’s words. Matt liked her that’s all she could think of.
Tumblr media
“Sooo a little birdie told me something this morning.” Her back was to the owner of the voice but she knew instantly who had spoken.
“Oh yeah, well I hope whatever this information is will help me crack this password.” She still didn’t turn but continued to type away at her computer, only the small desk lamp illuminating her little space.
“Ronnie told me that you like me.” There was amusement in the man’s voice, it made her stop typing and swing around in her chair.
She was met with the handsome face of Matt, he was smirking as he leaned on the desk just behind hers.
“That’s really funny, because earlier that same little birdie came to me too. He told me that it was YOU who had a crush on me.”
He sat on the desk, still smirking at her. “Looks like he set us both up.” They just laughed.
“So?”
“So what?”
She leaned forward in her chair to get a good look at him. “It’s it true?”
He leaned forward as well, their faces inches apart. “Were you telling the truth?”
She just smiled and huffed. “I asked you first.”
“Yeah I like you.” She searched his eyes for a hint of lying but couldn’t find any, she leaned back in the chair. “Any man would be crazy not to like you.”
So Ronnie was telling the truth.
“And you?”
“Yeah.” She smiled softly at his stupid grin. “Any girl would be stupid not to.” They both started laughing as he stood and straightened his pants out.
“So can I take you out on a date?”
She had to bite her lip to stop herself from laughing. “Maybe, we’ll see.”
She turned back to her computer but he managed to catch the massive smile on her face before she turned completely.
“Great! I’ll pick you up at 7pm on Saturday then.” His voice got further away he must have been leaving.
“You don’t know where I live!” She shouted out to him.
“I can find out.” He shouted back before he was gone.
She turned to look at the door he’d left and couldn’t help but feel butterflies, was this really happening? Not only had Matt confessed to liking her but also asked her out. It all felt like a dream.
Little did they both know, someone else was listening in on their exchange.

'Cillian Murphy has said his new film, Small Things Like These, uncovers a dark chapter in recent Irish society and that he was "emotionally knocked out" by the story of a Magdalene Laundry in smalltown Ireland in the 1980s.
The film is an adaptation of Claire Keegan's bestseller of the same name and became the first Irish film to open the Berlin International Film Festival on Thursday.
Murphy stars opposite Zara Devlin, Emily Watson, Eileen Walsh, and Michelle Fairley in the adaptation of Wexford author Keegan's 2021 Booker Prize-nominated novel and is also among the producers.
According to the synopsis, the film takes place in an Irish town over Christmas in 1985, "when devoted father and coal merchant Bill Furlong (Murphy) discovers startling secrets kept by the convent in his town, along with some shocking truths of his own.
"The film reveals truths about Ireland's Magdalene Laundries - horrific asylums run by Roman Catholic institutions from the 1820s until 1996, ostensibly to reform 'fallen young women’."
Speaking to RTÉ at the Berlinale, Murphy said: "It’s a lot to take on, it’s certainly a collective trauma we’re all processing. My generation and an older generation, it is still something we are trying to figure out.
"Books and art and film can be a balm to that wound more than government reports or academic papers.
"I think above all the film has to entertain and you have to be involved in it emotionally, but if it asks a few questions, that’s a bonus."
Small Things Like These tells a very Irish story, but Murphy doesn't see that as a barrier to the film attracting a wider audience.
"Its universality lies in its specificity," he said.
"We showed it in New York and LA and people responded in the same way and the response we're having here in Berlin is the same. There are very raw emotions to the film that people respond to, and the fact that it’s located in Irish society is no barrier to it."
Small Things Like These, which aims to be in cinemas this Autumn, reunites Murphy with Peaky Blinders director Tim Mielants, and the script has been written by Murphy's long-time collaborator, playwright Enda Walsh.
Speaking about how the project came about, the Cork actor said: "I love Claire Keegan’s work, all of her work, and I read the story quite early. It knocked me out emotionally, I thought it was beautiful and then I began to think of it as a film slowly, then I brought it to Alan, brought it to Tim and then Enda. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck became involved and then Eileen and it gathered momentum really quickly."'

I really wish all of the seasons of Law & Order UK were available on DVD. Or just, all of the ones with Jamie Bamber because a girl needs her fix. I also wish that it was available on something other than AMC+/Sundance Now.
In addition to wanting to see and hear my David Yates faceclaim, I also want to write a Law & Order verse or Law & Order UK fanfic.

*dj Khalid voice* another one. G for Jurassic Sanctuary!
G:  If you wrote a sequel to [insert fic], what would it be about?
OH NO.
Okay I know what happens next. The sequel would surround Nick and Devlin's wedding 2ish years after the epilogue. It would be held on the Sanctuary campus. Sofia would be flower girl, naturally, and get into all kinds of shenanigans. Tyler designed the tuxes and planned the wedding, but he's also Out Of His Mind so he's going ballistic trying to get things in order while also chasing after Sofia. Willow and Kris are quietly engaged and haven't told anybody yet, and they're trying to keep it under wraps until after the Devlin and Nick wedding. Mox and Matt, who had eloped, are caught everywhere on the campus doing all sorts of unspeakable things.
It's like the original fic, but the emergencies are rips in tuxes, a scampering toddler, and sexually uninhibited best men.

'On Thursday, the Berlin Film Festival will kick off with the world premiere of Small Things Like These, starring Cillian Murphy, who also produces, and marking the first time an Irish movie opens the Berlinale. In the exclusive first-look at the 1985-set drama, Murphy’s family man Bill Furlong comes face-to-face with Emily Watson’s formidable Sister Mary whose convent is concealing dark and disturbing secrets.
Also starring Eileen Walsh, Michelle Fairley and Zara Devlin, the story plays out in the weeks leading up to Christmas 1985. Bill, a devoted husband, father and coal merchant living in the traditional Irish town of New Ross in County Wexford, is facing his busiest season. During his delivery rounds, he discovers that the local convent is in fact a cruel institution that takes in so-called ‘fallen girls and women.’ His reaction to this discovery forces him to confront some hard truths about the convent, his hometown — and his own life.
Small Things Like These is directed by Tim Mielants (Peaky Blinders) and adapted by Enda Walsh (Hunger, Disco Pigs) from Claire Keegan’s acclaimed Booker Prize shortlisted novel. Keegan’s short story Foster was previously adapted for the screen as The Quiet Girl which debuted in Berlin in 2022 and went on to become the first Irish-language film nominated for an International Feature Oscar.
Of Small Things Like These, Murphy says he “fell in love with the book” and “very much wanted to play the part. And so, I thought, well the best thing to do then is to see if Claire will give us the rights and to see if we can put a team together.”
That team includes Artists Equity which financed the film after Murphy met Matt Damon while working on Oppenheimer. Producers are Murphy and his longtime collaborator and partner at Big Things Films, Alan Moloney, along with Artists Equity’s Damon and Drew Vinton; and Catherine Magee. Exec producers are Artists Equity’s Ben Affleck, Kevin Halloran and Michael Joe.
FilmNation Entertainment is repping sales on Small Things Like These which is an Artists Equity, Big Things Films, Screen Ireland, Wilder Films production.'
