EDIT: because of AI scraping, I've locked my fics after 3rd March 2025 and will lock all new ones in the future. more info here.

Quick intro post :)

I'm Starry, and I've been in various fandoms to varying degrees for pretty much all my life - Les Miserables, Hamilton, Six, Harry Potter, Downton Abbey, Poldark, Ballykissangel, How I Met Your Mother, Friends, Good Omens, The Office US, the Hugh Grant cinematic universe, and honestly more classic British sitcoms than I can remember (Dad's Army, The Thin Blue Line, Keeping Up Appearances, The Good Life, All Creatures Great And Small 1978, Fawlty Towers, etcetera) - then life got super hectic, the pandemic happened, and I lost my old tumblr, so starting afresh with this one :)

Currently I'm completely obsessed with All Creatures Great and Small on Channel5 and on Ao3 I write (mainly Tristan/Richard, aka Farmody) fics on xstarryxnightx

Fic masterpost!

You’re not the only one

A tribute to Tristan and Callum Woodhouse’s incredible acting! This episode is everything to me.

Season 6 and especially episode 6 spoilers

In a way you really predicted Tristan the horse first expert and then psychologist too, and the dead on the front lover friends with Close to You, did you have access to some secret files when writing that?

Haha oh I wish! 😆 That was all guesswork, but very much inspired by the little glimpses at his war trauma we got in S5. If I ever finish that fic, I had also planned out that his war career would lead him to Italy, which was based on researching the medels we saw on Callum's costume in the bts pictures which leaked during the spring!

Any thoughts on the new acgas series so far? : )

Hello!! 🥰 I'm loving it so far! It took a couple watches through to grow on me though, mainly because of the time skip - I expected there to be a timeskip but I hadn't fully thought through what that would actually mean for the characters as the vibe feeling quite different than previous seasons. I think steadily I've been enjoying it more and more each week! Although I really really miss Carmody, I'm disappointed that we're not seeing him at all :/ But I absolutely love Jimmy so much, he's just adorable! 🥰

Hi! How are you?

Hii!! Oh I'm sorry it's taken me a while to respond, I feel like I've been saying that a lot recently 😆 at the moment I'm a bit stressed at work, hence my slow reply, but I'm alright! Currently emotionally and mentally processing the new episode of all creatures great and small 🥺 I'm gearing up to binge House of Guinness this weekend, it looks really good! And tomorrow we're seeing a screening of Hamilton in our local cinema for the 10th anniversary which I'm super super excited for!! 🥰

May 1945, and things look very different at Skeldale House as James is struggling with a wild and chaotic Siegfried. When Tristan returns from war and is shocked to see the shift in his brother, he and James decide to take action. But there's also some good news around the corner for everyone
