Undying Devotion

the locklyle brainrot is real

[biscuitrule]

I’m Alex (she/her) and I realized I’ve never actually introduced myself lol so hello! here’s a belated introduction post

I’m a college student from America!

I do write! However I have yet to actually post any of it (maybe someday)

I’m always down to beta or proof read something if you want me to though!

I have a habit of getting carried away with hcs and making it way too long so if you ever want to discuss one further I promise I have more to say

I welcome any and all fics based on anything I post and would love to read them so pls tag me if you’re inspired!

My DMs and asks are always open and I’m happy to chat! Don’t be afraid to reach out if you want to! I love overanalyzing and just screaming about things in general

Welcome to Lock Nation and 35 Portland Row! I hope you make yourself at home!

I’m reading The Raven Cycle for the first time (I’m late to the game I know) and do I just have brainrot or do Blue and Gansey lowkey give Locklyle vibes? Like I can’t put it into words but there’s something there that reminds me of Lucy and Lockwood.

Bro was 60 seconds from going down on one knee, change my mind

[biscuitrule]

Just saw a locklyle edit on tiktok and was reminded that I will actually never forgive shitflix for taking them from us.

[biscuitrule]

Being in college is slowly realizing that you would not in fact be the Lucy or the Lockwood, but you would in fact be the George.

Stroud is trying to kill me on Christmas as usual

do you ever discover a movie/show/book that executes its themes and dynamics so beautifully and you get obsessed with it even though the fandom is relatively small, and then another movie/show/book with similar themes comes along and absolutely explodes in popularity, and you watch it and you have to admit that it’s good, but you still can’t feel the same level of excitement everyone else does and you’re just sitting in a corner of the fandom like

Lucy painting!!!

Trying to relearn how to use watercolours and just had to paint my fav girl!!

(And happy St. Paddy’s Day lovelies!)

[biscuitrule]

Legitimately one of the most beautiful paintings I’ve ever seen

[niqosasaki-deactivated20240928]

lockwood sick fics are always great but tbh the fandom is in dire need of some about lucy!

[biscuitrule]

No because Lucy is the epitome of pretending they’re fine and denying they’re sick until they literally pass out and Lockwood is the epitome of a worried mother hen and we deserve to see it more

[queen-of-hobgobblers]

I mean personally, if I were Netflix, I'd start to be concerned that some people have stopped watching my shows solely because I keep canceling them but idk man, maybe that's just me

[desos-records]

the way you know Lockwood's going to say Grenadier Guard before he even opens his mouth. idk if it was scripted or they let the actor pick, but you just know his answer before he even says it

how do I explain? this boy with the detective novels in his room, with adventuring and globe-trotting in his blood. this boy who never attacks innocent or unarmed opponents. this boy who defends Lucy's honor by sword point, who not only would die for her and their friends, but tried to

Grenadier Guards don't move. They are fixed points. Honor bound protectors of the highest rank. Lockwood is not always a fixed point, except in the protection of his home, his friends, and Lucy. Always, always, standing between them and the darkness

he's not an enforcer of law, although he sometimes tries to be within his own organization, to little effect. Lockwood bends and breaks rules as easy as breathing, but always with a reason, with honor, with ruthlessness in the sense of the shortest, clearest line between two points

of course he chooses Grenadier Guard

[biscuitrule]

Tell me the people who made the show understand the books without telling me they understand the books because this is so true.

Like this is a seemingly insignificant moment and choice but like that almost makes it more important. I don’t think they spent a ton of time trying to decide which one Lockwood would pick, but they got it right anyways and that almost makes it so much better because it means they had an inherent understanding of the character and his vibe subconsciously.

[biscuitrule]

I’ve been trying to figure out how to describe the pain I feel at seeing all the Dead Boy Detectives stuff and love for it online without it coming across as hating on the show or the fandom lmao

Like “no don’t mind me crying you guys aren’t doing anything wrong and I’m so happy for you this just reminds me of a love I lost” type beat lol

[trolliworms]

Somehow I keep getting Dead Boy Detectives on my feed and look I am so happy for you guys and it looks super cool

But it’s like someone pouring acid onto my wounds (my wounds being the fact that Lockwood and Co is cancelled)

The fandom: Wow what a cool found-family ghost show

Me, watching from the shadows with tear-tracks down my face: I had that once

[biscuitrule]

This is literally exactly what I’ve been thinking since I saw the trailer

[biscuitrule]

GUYS! As someone who loves Lockwood and Co, The Last of Us, and Enola Holmes I’m absolutely screaming and will be sat!

[alcorianight]

One thing I loved about Lockwood and Co. is just. The girls are pro brute force and the guys are all about proper technique. (Not all girls and not all guys but like, yeah).

Like it's Lockwood and Kipps that are finicky about proper stances and rapier technique (and iirc they both fenced (and Flo kicked their butts cause she's a legend)) and then there's Lucy and Kat who are just like "Look at that conveniently placed heavy object. Imma hit someone with that."

And it's great to me because I feel like in most works of fiction girls have to have exceptional technique and training to be on par with guys in fights, and then Stroud just flips the script. It's great. As a girl I appreciate other brute force girls.

[biscuitrule]

I never thought of this but it’s so true!!!
