I’ve Been Using This As A Phone Background For A Few Months Now And It Still Makes Me So Happy Whenever

I’ve been using this as a phone background for a few months now and it still makes me so happy whenever I look at it :) Os and Ed are just so sweet and happy and adorable in it, plus it’s such a lovely purple. I have a deep fondness for purple, in case you hadn’t noticed ;) 

(It occurs to me that that last bit might not make sense if you aren’t looking at this on my actual blog, but it’s 99% purple, like most things in my life. It’s very convenient for me that my favorite Gotham character has the same favorite color as me.)

Yeeessss, this is perfect, haha :) I mean, in the second case, I’m pretty sure Jim would re-arrest the heck out of Ed regardless of Oswald’s lack of testimony, but that first scenario is beautiful and I can 100% see Ed doing a super dramatic reveal exactly like that.

I ramble about my feelings on the end of Gotham (and shows ending generally) below the cut...

I’m so not ready for Gotham to end, though. I still haven’t seen last Thursday’s episode, and tomorrow is opening night of the play I’m in so I won’t be able to watch tomorrow’s episode, either (not that I would watch out of order, but like, I could catch up tonight... but also I’m super tired between work and rehearsals and everything, and I don’t want to rush one of the only two remaining episodes of this show I’ve been obsessed with going on a year now). But... urgggh, this is that thing I always run into where I have trouble letting a show go. I so often wind up saving the last 1-4 episodes of a show I love because it’s just hard to finish it, to not have it anymore. I’ve seen all but the last couple of episodes of White Collar, Leverage, Psych, A Series of Unfortunate Events... It’s a thing I do.

But the trouble with Gotham in particular is, well, now I’m on tumblr. I haven’t been able to scroll through my dashboard in a week since the last episode aired and I’m trying not to spoil myself. I did open it a time or two, just to glance at it; just tonight I caught a glimpse of a gifset of Os and Ed hugging after Oswald’s eye wound (which I’ve known about for quite a while from the bts pics, interviews, and trailers) but the hug gave me FEEEELLS and I haven’t even seen the episode and I’m not ready but also I want to see it? Uggh once this play is over I’m just going to have to watch the last two episodes, if only so I can safely use tumblr again.

And also, I know this saving thing doesn’t actually make more of a show I love exist. In a way, I like the idea that there’s something more there for me to go back to, but like, in a way I’m depriving myself of part of the story. I know I should just watch the last episodes of things, but it’s so hard to let things go... I’m a hoarder in so many ways, including of unwatched final episodes, I suppose. But yeah, I’ll have to watch Gotham so I can go back to looking at tumblr other than in my old drafts and likes, I suppose.

Well, and I also know that I’ll enjoy a thing best if I consume it while it’s still in an active obsession cycle. Although, my obsession cycle with Gotham has been semi-dormant for a while since I ran out of binging to do, so I’m not the closest to it I’ve ever been, but it’s still giving me feels, so I should watch it.

This has been: I talk myself into watching the end of Gotham some time in the near future. We’ll see if I listen.

But anyways, if you see me on tumblr looking at spoilers tomorrow remind me to stop!! Haha. I have a huge backlog of drafts to process anywho. I should be working through those.

And also wish me broken limbs! Almost, Maine opens tomorrow!!

And, happy end of Gotham, to those witnessing it tomorrow. I hope it’s a good one...

Oswald and Edward; married in the time jump.

Stay with me. Oswald and Edward are seen working together in the time jump. If Gotham is going to suggest that they have been operating as criminals, doing illegal stuff together for years, wouldn't it make sense that the two of them would have exploited the heck out of Marital Privilege? The law that protects the confidential communications between spouses during their marriage from being used as a testimonial in a court case? Meaning that one can never be forced to rat out the other? What a dramatic reveal that would be. 

___________________________________________________________

Imagine it. After lying low for months, Oswald Cobblepot resurfaces and puts a grand scheme in motion. The GCPD knows its Oswald, so they grab The Riddler to question him because he likely knows all about said plan.

Oswald And Edward; Married In The Time Jump.

Riddler is in the cold interrogation room, all pristine in his green suit, bowler hat and leather gloves. Completely relaxed and in his element. Jim slams some files on the table and goes through how they know Edward knows what Oswald is up to.

Oswald And Edward; Married In The Time Jump.

All the while Riddler has this shit eating grin as he loosens his gloves, one finger at a time, as he listens to what Jim is saying.

Oswald And Edward; Married In The Time Jump.

“While I would love to help you out, Jim…” Riddler begins as he places his arm upright on the table, so his hand is almost eve level with Jim. A bit unnecessary but it allows him to be as dramatic as possible as he removes his left glove with a flourish to reveal a gold ring on his ring finger. “I’m afraid you can’t legally force me to testify against my… Husband.”

Oswald And Edward; Married In The Time Jump.

___________________________________________________________

“I don’t suppose you know anything about The Riddlers most recent escape from Arkham…?” a tired Jim deadpans to Oswald in the middle of a high-end restaurant, where the Riddler is blatantly seated across from Oswald. Martini in hand, smugly leading back in his chair, still in his stripped Arkham robes just to rub it in.

“I’m afraid I legally can’t say Jim” Oswald replies with mock sincerity.

If you get this and would like - answer with 3 random facts about yourself and send it to the last 7 blogs in your notifications, anonymously or not! Let’s get to know the person behind the blog!

1. Not to copy the person I got this ask from, but I also have two cats! Their names are Maple and Willa :) They were abandoned as kittens so we actually bottle fed them and raised them from when they were only a few weeks old, and now they’re super clingy because my mom and I are collectively their mom cats <3 Also, Willa is actually my blog icon. So, in fairness, I suppose I should post a picture of boy cat (as we often call Maple):

image

Here he is helping me do yoga. 

Also here’s another picture of Willa because she’s beautiful and adorable.

image

2. I sometimes suspect I might be tone deaf. I’ve been trying to tune my guitar but I have a terrible time telling if the notes on the guitar are higher or lower than the notes on the tuner. I used to have a tuner that just made a buzzing sound and I really couldn’t make heads nor tails of that since the sound it made was nothing like the one my guitar makes; I don’t get how people can do things like that, where they can get a pitch from one sounding thing and make it match up with a completely different sounding thing. It’s like when people take a note from a piano and sing it. Seriously, if it’s not the same sound then how do you tell if you’re at the same pitch as it? But anyways, I found this online guitar tuner that actually makes guitar sounds and I’ve been getting closer to being able to tune my guitar. I still had to ask my mom a couple of times whether I was higher or lower than the note on the tuner, but eventually I got it fiddled in and I think the first three strings on my guitar are actually pretty much in tune now. They certainly sound better than before, at least. (I can generally tell “good” or “not good”, more or less, even if I can’t always tell whether the “not good” is higher or lower.) I was going to try and tune the other three strings but Willa, speaking of whom, decided that she was more important than my musical endeavors and climbed up on my chest to demand attention. Fortunately, the first three strings are all I need to play Ode to Joy, which is the only piece I can play from memory. Despite the fact that I first took guitar lessons in 6th grade, I am still very much a beginner.

3. I have been idly thinking about dyeing my hair something between red and purple since… probably around middle school, but I’ve never done so. I have had roughly the same length and color of hair all of my life, basically. I’ve been thinking about it much more seriously of late (partially thanks to my current MCR obsession, between Gerard and the Killjoys), and I was generally thinking that after the current play I’m in, (which is the Crucible, and being historic, discourages unnaturally bright hair colors,) I might finally dye it. The rub, though, is that our play, which was supposed to happen this very weekend, is postponed indefinitely, what with all this pandemic business. So, now I’m not sure how long I need to wait before I dye my hair. But anyways, I found this blog post and this woman’s hair is pretty much exactly what I’m wanting color-wise. 

image

Bonus fact, I am pretty much incapable of giving short, simple answers, haha. I’ve always been inclined to overexplain, I guess. 

Also, you may have thought you saw me accidentally answer this ask before I was ready, but that definitely didn’t happen. Pfffffft I have no clue what you’re talking about. I know how to tumblr.

I currently follow 40; most of them are Gotham and I’m trying to diversify, though. I want to follow more Doctor Who blogs and maybe even some Once Upon a Time ones, but the trouble is that I’m behind on both of those shows and tumblr blogs tend to focus on the most current stuff. (If anyone knows good ones, feel free to recommend them!)

Also, quite a few of those 40 are art blogs that update pretty rarely, but when they do, the art is great. So, it’s not like I’m seeing 40 blogs’ worth of stuff in my dashboard every day; only like 5 of the blogs I follow update daily. 

how many people do y’all follow? it’s for science

Oswald and his family, being happy and sweet. 

At first I was disappointed that Ed was left out, but then I realized, even though he’s not pictured really, there are two gifs of Os looking at him/attempting to confess his love for him, so he’s implied in it. 

Three generations of Cobblepot cuteness :) 

I hope no one minds my Christmas spam, but I feel like I’ve got to post all this cuteness tonight because it will be late tomorrow. So much Christmassy fluff, so little time...

Merry Christmas!

It’s a weird time for me fandom-wise. Normally, the way I cycle through obsessions, I’d be fading out on Gotham in favor of A Series of Unfortunate Events, because that’s kind of just how I process things, cycling from one fandom into another, and then back around again after taking a break for a while. But now Gotham is coming back, and both because I’m on tumblr now and because it’s exciting and rare for me to be current on a show I’ll want to keep up with it, especially since this is the final season, even though I was getting a little burned out on my obsession with it. But also, I’m in rehearsals for a play right now (which I need to leave for soon) and so I’ll be missing it live tonight (and for all of January) and I’ll have to stay off tumblr tonight until I can see it on hulu tomorrow--probably not until after rehearsal again, actually. Also I was going to try to put out a season 3 inspired Nygmobblepot fanmix before Gotham came back but that’s not getting done in the next 5 minutes so I suppose it’ll just have to come out this weekend amidst the rush on season 5 premiere stuff. Also I got a Doctor Who audio drama for Christmas and I’ve been listening to that in the car on the way to and from work, so it’s like I’m actively consuming things from 3 of my fandoms all at once, which is probably not that strange for most people, but which is rather strange for me given the way in which I obsess over things. 

tl;dr--I’m going to try and put up a Nygmobblepot fanmix I’ve been working on this weekend, but because of play rehearsal I won’t be able to watch Gotham live on TV this month so I’ll be watching a day behind on hulu and avoiding tumblr in the space inbetween.

Alright, I think I’ll end the day’s mass Christmas rebloggings here, with some good old fashioned Nygmobblefamily fluff :) Adorable as ever. Also I love the detail in the pattern of Oswald’s robe. This art is just so cozy and snuggly and sweet; I can feel the warmth. 

The lady I work with also does Christmas in January, actually. I think it’s an Eastern Orthodox thing--she’s from Russia. Well, they had a family Christmas this Saturday, but she’s mentioned the January Christmas thing to me before, too. I think they might do both. 

So, Merry Christmas and joyous holidays to all :) 

Here You Go Anon! I Kept This One In The Queue For Today.

I hope you all have a nice day (regardless of holidays) and that you have fun on New Year’s Eve as well. I got 3 more days of work and then I’m on holidays. (We celebrate Christmas in January. Crazy, I know.)

No hate to Star Wars, but Earth is a really awesome planet and this is a super cool post! :) 

No Hate To Star Wars, But Earth Is A Really Awesome Planet And This Is A Super Cool Post! :) 

Oh, and speaking of pink lakes, this reminds me of Lake Hillier in Australia (image source: https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/lake-hillier) 

No Hate To Star Wars, But Earth Is A Really Awesome Planet And This Is A Super Cool Post! :) 

And also, I know people get all excited about Hoia Baciu forest because it’s supposedly haunted and an alien sighting hotspot or whatever, but just aesthetically, I think the curvy trees would be a neat look for a far-off planet.

Yeah, sci fi in general could do well to take more advantage of these things. Like, I know filming in quarries is a time-honored Doctor Who tradition, and I’m not suggesting an end to that. Welsh quarries are neat, too :) But the world is full of a great many fantastic sights. 

why are star wars planets more boring than earth and our solar system like sure we’ve seen desert, snow, diff types of forest, beach, lava, rain, but like…

and cool fauna like the touch me not or like, you know, the venus flytrap.. and don’t get me started on BUGS like… we have bugs cooler than sw aliens

harry potter william beckett the academy is... it me ravenclaw pride no but you guys they reuse those scarves at the photo op what are the odds we could've used the same scarf? mine looks bluer but the lighting is also clearly brighter in mine... and my camera is also clearly inferior lol it's funny though‚ I was watching TAI interviews the other night and there was one where they asked him his Hogwarts House and they had to tell him the options? like he didn't immediately know? I guess maybe he got into HP after that anyways this is probably deeply cringe but I didn't wait in line 3 hours for that picture not to use it at every possible opportuniyt actually my friends and I collectively had the idea to take a short video instead of a picture so we could make sure we caught the scarf at the perfect moment (the people working at the photo op throw the scarf so it looks like it's fluttering)‚ so this is actually a still from that little video‚ which in hindsight made it come out a bit blurrier than a picture would've; this was taken on my good old iphone 5 I believe so it wasn’t the highest quality anyway but yeah studying abroad in England was a fun time! We did lots of fandom-y stuff I know jkr is not being a great person right now but this was in 2018 before all that and I don't think we had to pay money for it anyways‚ also I did lots of Doctor Who stuff so let me know if you wanna see those pics :) yeah I would love to visit England again study abroad adventures
So I Just Went Through The New Gotham Promo At .25 Speed, As One Does, And I Don’t Have Any Discoveries

So I just went through the new Gotham promo at .25 speed, as one does, and I don’t have any discoveries quite as significant as my Selena one last promo, but I still thought I’d share a few screenshots and speculations. Probably the best is this first one, where I managed to pause on this funky bird-masked person in the night vision goggles. Is this that Magpie who’s supposed to be coming in this season? I thought she was the silver-haired girl? Well, perhaps this is her wearing a mask. 

So I Just Went Through The New Gotham Promo At .25 Speed, As One Does, And I Don’t Have Any Discoveries

Also, this looks disturbingly like bones in a furnace--see the ribs? Is this a cremation or something? Well... I’m spooked. 

So I Just Went Through The New Gotham Promo At .25 Speed, As One Does, And I Don’t Have Any Discoveries

Speaking of bones... someone is collecting teeth? Is... is there a tooth fairy themed Gotham villain? Or is this Zsasz or Strange or someone keeping trophies? Actually I’m not completely certain whether they’re teeth but I also don’t know what else they’d be. For the most part, they look too smooth, but the gold ones definitely look like false teeth. 

So I Just Went Through The New Gotham Promo At .25 Speed, As One Does, And I Don’t Have Any Discoveries

On a less spooky note, look, a random child. While I have no more information about this beyond it being a random child, my heart is already saying that this is another orphan like Martin for Os and Ed to adopt. 

So I Just Went Through The New Gotham Promo At .25 Speed, As One Does, And I Don’t Have Any Discoveries

And here we have Bruce presumably looking down at Jeremiah falling into the vat of Joker-juice... Either that, or this is before the fall and he’s just gazing down at the glowing green chemicals and brooding as Jeremiah monologues. It didn’t feel like there would be a lot of time for monologuing and brooding before the fight breaks out, though, so my gut is telling me this is post-fall. It’s an interesting mix of emotions on his face, to be sure.

So I Just Went Through The New Gotham Promo At .25 Speed, As One Does, And I Don’t Have Any Discoveries

And, lastly, I know plenty of people have screenshotted this without the frame and some have even giffed it, but I had to throw in this lovely Nygmobblepot moment :) Mostly I just wanted to say that that bit where Ed is confronting Oswald and he overhears that Os named his dog Edward is basically everything I’ve been hoping for from season 5. I laughed so hard while my mom and grandma were watching wheel of fortune. It’s not exactly the “not you, we named the dog Edward” exact Pirates of the Caribbean parody I was hoping for, but it’s darn close and I’m deeply excited to see the rest of that scene. 

Aaaaa you guys, Gotham season 5 is almost here!!!!!!!!!!! *screams fangirlishly into the night*

alfhildr-the-word-weaver - The Lande of Violet Mists
The Lande of Violet Mists

Welcome, dear traveller, to our fantastical lande shrouded in swirling violet mists. Here we study how stories shape our lives, how words weave wonders before our eyes. Here we are enamoured of love and the connections betwixt people. Here we seek daring adventures in our wild lande, delving into the unknown at every turn. But mostly, here you'll find my obsession with any number of things, like Doctor Who, the Vampire Diaries, or any number of others from the ever-shifting tide of obsessions through which I cycle. My more-used sideblog is blagueofchaos if you ever wish I posted more :) She/her, 28
