My Wings Are On Wheels

Disabled, trans, queer, late-40s mountain-hugger, sea-dreamer, and folk musician. He/him. Fandoms/ships: heated rivalry (esp. skip, but I love all of them!), endeavour/morseverse, shetland, ineffable spouses, geraskier, Shakespeare, Tolkien, folk music, ballet, choral music, musical theatre, other theatre, Discworld, KJ Charles, Alexandra Rowland, and more. Current favourite actors: Roger Allam, François Arnaud. Recommended lesser-known stage actors: Gloria Obiyano, Ros Watt. I block a lot of people; it doesn't mean I think you're a terrible person, I'm just being sensible and self-caring. This isn't where I do my activism.

Put in the tags the completely finished (whether cancelled or wrapped up on its own terms) TV series that has YOUR perfect ending, however you define that

Please don’t include huge spoilers for the specifics of the endings, and it would also make me happy if people don’t use this to talk about the shows whose endings they hated

honestly sometimes there's no better feeling than rereading a fic you've written and coming out of it going, "yeah that actually this DOES slap. exactly what i wanted to read. fucking nailed it."

Some D&D party is out there playing the coolest campaign ever.

[nonasuch]

I saw this when it was posted! Some highlights from the comments:

[fenrir-kin]

Expecting the campaigns to be child-like and innocent because she's 10 is hilarious

This whole thing is 100% in keeping with what 10 year old girls are Actually Like

Sometimes "rarepair" means "you are literally the only person who posts about this on tumblr dot com" and you have to learn to be okay with that.

IM BACK

with more Heated Rivalry x Fae AU

Since Hollanov has been the most featured within my works with this AU i wanted to expand to the other book couples that dont get enough love during pride month

Scott is an informant for the Fae people who stumbles upon an enchanted lake in which Mer-Kip resides.

I wanted to convey an "opposites" vibe but one that wasnt as close to Ilya and Shane's

Ryan Price is the Rozanov's Royal Executionor who dispises his brutal role within the kingdom but is swept off his feet by the gorgeous Lute player, Fabian.

Within the Fae kingdom, a young Pub owner Kyle helps the newly separated royal informant Eric, explore his sexual identity with a risky (LEGAL) age gap

Troy is the son of a Fae (mother) and Human (father) affair, leaving him an Elf in the human kingdom, an outsider but taken under the royal hands of Ilya Rozanov, along the way meeting a farmer, Harris and his dog Chiron.

Also will be posting my OC x Cliff with this AU bc im self indulgent

[mywingsareonwheels]

I was trying to work out who was my first beloved queer character, and honestly it was Carwash in Willo the Wisp when I was about 3, so around 1981. He was my favourite, and honestly he still is. ;-)

I mean, all of Willo the Wisp was voiced by Kenneth Williams *anyway*, but Carwash was magnificently obviously (and clearly deliberately) the gayest cat known to humankind. I am still unsure as to whether he and the Moog are together-together or just in a QPR while Carwash is actually romantically involved with the "very dear friend in Catford" he mentions at one point.

But anyway. That was my favourite show when I was a small child, and also it is fricking awful that the anti-woke brigade here in the UK would go absolutely ballistic if the show was made new now. :(

A common theme in science fiction is that if you're in space, don't trust a corporation. And Earth is in space

John Finnemore on Anthony Head:

https://substack.com/home/post/p-195999614 "...but I wanted to say how shocked and sad I am to hear of the death of Anthony Head. He was a fantastic, funny actor and a lovely man; and I was so lucky to have him on Cabin Pressure..."

"I gave him, looking back at it, a really difficult job: to come into the core cast of a little show like ours after two series, as an adversary to one and a love interest to another, without either unbalancing it or feeling like an unnecessary add-on. Anthony did neither, he slotted right in as if he’d always been there, and his Beatrice and Benedick relationship with Stephanie Cole’s Carolyn provided some of my favourite scenes of the show - along with his superb 'voice-off’ against Roger Allam.

My favourite memory of Anthony from the show was when - as happened to all of us at one time or another - one little phrase suddenly became impossible to say. I think his was ‘soft shoe shuffle’. We all started playing up to the idea of ‘helping’ him get the line out, which of course made it far harder for him, and by the end, my memory is that I had taken his script and was crouched in front of him holding it up; and Ben and Roger were either side of him, arms round him, Roger crooning ‘you can do it, Tony’… as he tried to get the line out through tears of laughter.

And then when (of course) he finally delivered it immaculately, his exultant post-goal style celebrations took him across the whole stage.

I always assumed we’d work together again, and am so sorry that we will not. My sympathy and condolences to all his family and friends."

Ilya Rosanov 🤝 Endeavour Morse

lost their mothers at a young age

fathers are horrible and emotionally abusive (and die during canon)

incredibly good at what they do

regarded as arrogant (and let's be honest quite frequently are - affectionate)

ridiculously pretty

bi as fuck (though only one of them is necessarily aware of this)

drawn to people and spaces where they feel safe and emotionally warm and can find new family (but not always remotely good at showing this)

working for corrupt and awful institutions (and at various points attempting to change them from within and make things better)

Horrifyingly, the hockey player a) is the more well-adjusted of the two, b) appears to obtain fewer injuries...

[literary-claustrophobia]

I love that the antagonist in Heated Rivalry is homophobia and toxic masculinity. Like, sure they have some failure to communicate and they make some unfortunate choices, but it's all very understandable because they are both very very afraid. And the thing is... their fears are so valid that it's nauseating.
