i have no idea if my ask sent because my phone crashed right as i hit send…so i will try to retype again. but first: please don’t use the term “afro-american” in any context. it’s outdated. secondly, to maybe put this in perspective, for the non poc in your story, not once is their skin color described. only adjectives like “portly” and “tall”, but never “white” and i think even once…it makes me uncomfortable to use “the black male” as the only way to describe a person…but your writing does not have to address my comforts/discomforts only and if that’s how you choose to write poc, then i can’t force you to change how you write. but this is also coming from a poc who would be uncomfortable if the terms “dark tan person” (my skin color) were used to reference me in a story.
I wouldn't know what term is outdated or not since we don't have many people of that color in my country
Let ME put it in perspective, if I was writing for Ulysses Klaue, you know, the one of two white people in Black Panther, I would use white, because the whole cast is of color and you would know who I'm referring to when I say "white"
If I used "heavyset" for example, since Gato is so, you can easily think I'm referring to Hooten. If I use "shorter male" it gets even more confusing since all the cast is smaller than Harding. If I say "bald" you can think of Hooten again since he shaved off his head.
I am poc and I find it absolutely absurd when people consider the usage of a color to be racist. I don't find it uncomfortable when people refer to my skin color to describe me, because that is who I am
Again, I used that term 4 times from 26, because I didn't want to repeat myself. Last I checked, the color "black" isn't a contemptuous term
Please note that I am open to changing the term as long as it doesn't make things confusing. A fact you shut down instantly since the term I suggested earlier was "outdated". What else can you suggest that does not create confusion on who’s being addressed?
And please remember that if a fic (mine or anyone else's) makes you uncomfortable you can always stop reading it

Regret- Ulysses Hooten
Tumblr media
Pairing: Ulysses Hooten x Reader
Characters: Ulysses Hooten
Warnings: N/A
Request: Anon- Since any sign of Hooten and the Lady is non existent on Tumblr, one shot request for Hooten and reader? "Who are they?" "They don't like me." And whose that?!" "They don't like me either!". If you're up to it 
Word Count: 405
Author: Charlotte
Sometimes you had to ask yourself which stupid decisions led to where you were in the world, but you didn't have to think too far to figure out what led you here today. Befriending Ulysses Hooten was what had led you to having guns pointed at you from every direction and you regretted ever meeting the man especially agreeing to travel with him to find a relic in the middle of a jungle in Latin America.
You knew that he was a troublesome man and didn't follow a lot of things such as laws and that would get you into some hot water at some point, but you didn't expect anything like this. He told you it would be safe, at least safe enough that you wouldn't end up dead but with the number of guns pointed at your head, you doubted that heavily. The people surrounding you were clearly from different groups, two clear different uniforms amongst them.
"Who are they?" You asked, trying not to move too much, rather scared that you were able to get shot, gesturing towards the group to your left with a small movement.
"They don't like me," he stated.
It wasn't hard to realise that; people didn't aim guns at people they liked.
"And who's that?" You frowned gesturing in the opposite direction.
He narrowed his eyes at you, as though it was a very obvious answer even though you had no idea who any of these people were and seen as they all spoke different languages that you didn't understand, it was a little hard to figure it out on your own.
"They don't like me either!" He exclaimed.
You huffed, having hoped that maybe he knew one of the groups for a good reason but instead you were more than likely going to end up dead in the middle of a jungle with a man you weren't fond of.
"At least I have something in common with them," you stated with venom laced in your words.
"It would hurt if I cared," he retorted.
With a frown you tried to calm down, not wanting your anger to take over but it was easier said than done.
"I knew it was a bad idea to work with you. Why was I so stupid?" You sighed.
Hooten shrugged his shoulders. "Everyone I work with seems to regret it. Honestly I might start taking it personally."
"You really should."

Hooten & the Lady is such a great-looking show, you’d think it’d be easier to find fun bits to gif. This’ll do for now.

Hooten and the lady one shot
“So what’s the big plan, eh? You not marrying Farquard? Just going on adventures every week, getting me into trouble for the rest of my life? You’re like a magnet for crazy people who want to kill me, do you remember that?”
Alex chuckled and tried to sound as cheery as she could whilst holding back tears.
“Don’t be daft, Hooten. Of course I’m gonna marry Edward. It’s just…”
“No… no there is no it’s just. Either you marry him or you don’t. Aren’t you one of those 21st century need no man and don’t shave their legs independent girls? You got to make the decision on your own.”
“Excuse me the word is feminist, actually.”
“So you don’t shave them then?”
“Hooten, my legs and my body hair, as well as the two combined, are not the topic here!” She hated when she lost control over her voice like that. When it broke away in this high-pitched fashion, it made her sound like Minnie Mouse in her own ears.
“Okay, okay Mrs Flokati Farquard there’s no need for this hostile attitude”
She hated when he did this. Holding up his hands just a little bit in mock surrender, with a glint in his eyes and that cocky smile that made her want to slap him in the face most of the times.
“I am not being hostile… I am just”, she paused in order to organise her thoughts, trying to sound as calm and casual and preferably less high-pitched as possible. “I am just saying that...”
“Hold that thought for a second, there”. Hooten stared at his compass and looked around. “We have to go that way according to this here.”
Alex who glimpsed over his shoulder shook her head.
“No Hooten, that’s wrong, see the needle is obviously pointing that way so we, obviously, have to go in that direction”. He looked in the direction that she was pointing in, which was the exact opposite direction of what he had proposed.
“No, look the needle always points south so we have to go tha…”
“What?”, Alex interrupted him, “what did you just say?”
“I said we have to go that way”, Hooten said with a lot of gesturing is his favourised direction.
“No you said and I quote the needle always points south…Hooten have you ever used a compass before?” A shrug and a grin followed.
“Well it ain’t rocket science, right?”
“Hooten you can’t be serious! A compass doesn’t point south it always points north!”
Hooten turned a few times on his heels, shielding his eyes from the sun, as if he was searching for a huge shield that said you messed up the real southwest is that way, buddy.
Alex stared irritated at him. “What are you doing, now? I’ve been following the directions you gave us for miles! You even insisted on taking the compass! You didn’t even allow me to cross check! And all this time we walked in the complete wrong direction?”
Hooten now stood still questioningly staring in one, then in another and rather opposite direction.
“Oh my god…” Alex placed her hand against her forehead and took a few deep breaths. “Ulysses Hooten you did not just get us lost by the misuse of a compass, did you?”
“Well”, he scratched his head, “define lost. I mean we know where we are just not where everyone else is. Or the treasure. Or the nice little restaurant in which Farquard will be sitting by now waiting for you. And in fact like I told you I never needed a compass. I always land where I need to be. You can call that intuition, or like I call it awesomeness”
Alex frowned.
“I’d call it delusional, really. I mean what kind of…Oh no wait the dinner! I completely forgot about that! Oh poor Edward, not again!”
Hooten glanced at her from the side.
“Telling almost, eh?”
“What do you mean?” Alex was the only person that he knew that could look so deeply and honestly confused and yet so suspicious of everything at the same time.
“Nothing, nothing really… just how you seem to completely forget the soon to be Lord Farquard every time one of our little adventures pops up.” He smirked at her.
“Don’t. Don’t Hooten. Don’t do this, I mean it. That is not fair and it’s most certainly not the truth and you know it.”
He turned his head towards her his eyebrows raised.
“Oh, do I?... Alex… really… do I know so?” His words came out hoarse and far more quiet and serious than she had ever heard him before. One could almost sense the emotions behind his words, which was ironically the only reason why he uttered them in the first place, perhaps not knowing how much his voice could betray him and reveal more meaning than some simple platitudes could. Together with his piercing expression she subconsciously held her breath.
However, the moment went the same as it had appeared…it went away in a flash.
Hooten stopped himself from maintaining a serious attitude, be it from the habit of avoiding exactly this very thing, or from the feeling that if he didn’t watch his verbal step, he would hit a landmine of things that were better be left unsaid, in some cases even better left unthought.

You're only half as annoying as most of the Brits I meet. Well, you're not the most annoying American I've ever met.

Hooten & The Lady
- Oh, I see, right. Because I’m a lady, you think I sit around all day, being waited on the hand and foot by a butler.
- You’ve actually got a butler?
- No! Okay, no, yes, fine, that’s exactly what I do. And I generally travel everywhere by horse and carriage. I wear lace, gloves and a bonnet.
- Do you know the Queen?

Das Fabergé-Ei in der Verfinsterung des Lichts
Das Fabergé-Ei in der Verfinsterung des Lichts
Die Umstände meines Lebens sind von jener Art, die niemand schätzt. Denn wer mag es schon, wenn er zu schwach ist, um eine Situation auszuhalten, zu feige, sie hinter sich zu lassen und nicht dumm genug, um sich beider Eigenschaften nicht bewusst zu sein.
Das I Ging kommentiert die Situation mit dem Bild 36 – Die Verfinsterung des Lichts. Als wüsste ich nicht, dass ich gerade im Dunkel…
