i do miss captain hastings (<- hasnt read or watched an agatha christie for a long time). like. hes basically what everyone thinks doctor watson is.

THINGS HE KNOWS: cricket. modes of transport. lots pf posh english people and their social codes.

THINGS HE DOESNT KNOW: literally anything else. regularly gets distracted from the case. fully does not know whats going on. him and poirot are like that one things they teach you on buisness school/things they dont teach you in buisness school-> thus, the sum of all human knowledge joke (you know the one).

poirot literallty just seems to keep him around as some kind of trophy husband/pet englishman/rubber duck/like. social lubricant i dont know what youd call it. like hes always just hanging around for no real reason. i love him so much

[mightstaywhoknows]

He is also there to yap about sports/car to confuse and distract people while poirot looks around

He take notes very well, can run, tackle and shoot the killer

Him and japp protect poirot from geting jumped at by the killer too

[babystarbeam]

He is perfect because of all his beautiful flaws.

Poirot is literally like "I keep you around because you were made in a vat to be the world's most stereotypical Englishman so if I ever want to know how the average Englishman would react to a situation I can just ask you!" It's great.

[anza-redstar]

#oh Hastings is absolutely Poirot's rubber duck yeah. and Japp is like a different rubber duck with angry eyebrows drawn on

Okay. I was on my beloved AO3 and I saw something that made me do a double take. So, now I really want to know…

What is your AO3 user ID?

I’m an OG user 5 digits or less

Six figures baby!

I’m in the millions…

Remaining time: 5 days 4 hours

I’m so curious to see how long people have been on AO3! I know some people have been on there since beta/invite only, but I would love to see what the number is on tumblr!

Not to indulge in childish fantasies but what if every time I checked the news it wasn’t worse?

do you like my repetitive and outdated music taste

Say what you will but I still think there’s so much intimacy and devotion in the way Carmilla resorted to draining an entire village worth of women dry before even considering drinking from Laura.

This stubborn and viscerally evil devil girl has mustered enough love in her rotting, undead, soon-to-be-staked heart, to save the life of the human dear to her, for last.

“if you love this character then you must make him happy in your fics, right?” wrong. the horror. suffering. internal hemorrhage. hospital. immediately

That day, he was amazed to discover that when he was saying, “Yes, boss,” what he meant was, “I love you.”

[guiltfactory-moved]

the "my favorite character did nothing wrong" mindset is completely unappealing to me because i love thinking about all the things my favorite characters did wrong

spanish films are weird as fuck in the way people THINK german films are, german films are lowkey simmering with passion the way people think french films are, french films are rather nihilistic in the way people think german films are. and italian films are all three and feature way more cock.
