Can I say I believe all three Quagmire triplets had a chance with Violet, but Quigley was the only one who succeeded because he's the only one that went for it.
Violet is more than likely bi. She obviously thinks the triplets are physically attractive if she was into Quigley at all. The only difference is that Quigley said "I could stay here and do research, or I could cilmb a mountain and shoot my shot."
The low impulse control really helped him out here.
(My personal belief is for some reason Isadora convinced herself Violet was straight and Duncan was being too gay about Klaus to think about going for his sister, but that's just me)
I fully and wholeheartedly believe that the Baudelairs and Quagmires found each other again and are now the closest of friends.
(Let a girl be delusional)
OFFICIAL NOTICES FOR ALL MY WIPS:
“Fly Me To The Moon” will be getting its final chapter THIS MONTH (possibly like next week). It’s pride month and you know I need to celebrate with Solangelo.
”leave all your love and your longing behind” is getting a new chapter or two this summer and that’s the title now. Old one is stupid and way way too long. Excited to write this, as it is basically pure summery fluff.
the other two WIPs on my profile are my cringey high school stuff and I’m so sorry to officially announce that they will not be getting any updates because I’m not into it. They also have very little engagement so I don’t think anyone’s gonna be mad at me for that decision.

Happy Snicket Sunday! The Slippery Slope! My first Snicket book! It's time for Sunny Baudelaire syndrome, my beloved Quigley Quagmire, Verse Fluctuation Declaration, Verdant Flammable Devices, Snow Gnats, Snow Scouts, and men and women with auras of menace and various hairstyles and facial ornamentations. Oh, and headquarters! Can you tell this is one of my favorites? So many good things and bits of worldbuilding to dig into today.
@snicketsundays
Hello @snicketsundays / @drowninginredink,
I know I've been somewhat late these last few posts — sorry about this slippery slope I've been on!
Like handshakes, house pets and raw carrots many things are less preferable when slippery; the least preferable slippery thing, of course, is a slope.
I love that opening simile. House pets as well 😂.
...what was I going to s— AAH! MOMMY! DADDY!
The introduction of The Man With a Beard but No Hair and The Woman with Hair but No Beard is easily (one of, if not) the single greatest introduction of character(s) into any series. I think this is because it comes at a point when we, the readers/viewers, who are following (forced to follow, one could argue) the narrative from the Baudelaires' perspective, have already established that Olaf is this vile fiend who is willing to go to lengths of murder and arson...
...just to illegally earn (admittedly, a LOT more) money. All the acts we see him perform, both off-stage and on, are sometimes legal parts of a grand illegal scheme.
To then find someone who SCARES the murderer arsonist who's just been described... yeah, when Lemony said they have an aura of menace he was not kidding. There is a theory that they're Gifford and Ghede from ATWQ; the logic for this theory makes sense, I think.
I like the build-up to Quigley's reveal, especially the Vertical Flame Diversion. The VFD codes from the Baudelaires to Quigley and back again are also quite fun to watch. Makes me feel like I'm around my friends.
*sighs in ASOUE fandom*
Then there's...ahem, that moment (ft. Lemony giving them privacy!), followed by Esmé's... whatever that was. Something about skinning the children alive being the second worst thing she's done in a hot tub.
I dread to think of the first.
MUSH, MUSH! MUSH! MUSH, MUSH! MUSH!
Carmelita being forced to be 100% democratically elected (in a vote which is not in any way rigged whatsoever) crowned False Spring Queen, then being adopted by Esmé—
I think Carmelita was the last straw in Olaf and Esmé's already deteriorating relationship. Esmé saw an opportunity whereas Olaf saw a nuisance.
The reveal of 'Quigleforth Quagmire' to the villains is still hilarious, to this day. What, one may argue, is even more hilarious is the fact that they all think the Sugar Bowl is close when it's just chilling (rather literally) in Anwhistle Aquatics!
Let's be honest, though — those eagle-controlling whistles look amazing. I'd like to not consider myself a villain, but I'd love one of those.
But to kidnap a bunch of Snow Scouts... for money? Really?
I don't understand why they couldn't just, from their perspective, played the manipulation game: slowly but surely bankrupted every 'noble' VFD member, swindled them out of their entire fortune.
Then again, the Baudelaire fortune is small potatoes. Even though Olaf is pretty sure it's money.
At least Sunny got the chance to:
a) stay alive, not dying at the hands of TWWHBNB.
b) bond with Fernald during her time in captivity.
c) shout "ROSEBUD!" as she shoved the sled towards Olaf, a reference to Citizen Kane, referenced in TRR
Then the dream couple separates! Noooooooooo!!!!
Very lovely indeed,

P.S. I do have a theory somewhere, on this mess that is my blog, about what the motto is emblazoned on the (iron?) arch of the VFD HQ.
when i run out of fanfic to read so i write the fanfic
New chapter of passing though (till the well runs dry)!!
part four: the survivor
“This place was my last hope to find my brother and sister. All I can think is that they’re out there somewhere kidnapped and in danger, and I couldn’t do anything to help them.” “They’re safe!” Violet cried suddenly, as if she had forgotten.
