WERE GETTING A S2 AND S3!!! 👻

[thomas-thorne]

I would like to see thomas sing I want it that way but he doesn’t sing it he sort of recites it like a poem

Imagine this

You’re sleeping. It is midnight. The only sounds outside are birds chirping. It is peaceful.

And then you hear it.

“You… are my fire… the one… desire…”

You are Alison from BBC Ghosts

What are the ghost’s favourite alcoholic drink? Beer existed in the Stone Age so robin would of know alcohol.

The answer to all their favourites is

Spirits.

I love all the ghosts so much but I really want a ghost from the 90s with like crazy blue eyeshadow and butterfly clips who makes alison play the spice girls on repeat.

Kitty 90s AU. Like if you combined Kitty and Julian as one ghost.

Headcanons for suffragette Fanny?

STRAIGHT UP MRS. BANKS FROM THE ORIGINAL MARY POPPINS FILM.

What are Julian’s favourite songs that have sexual themes?

I feel like his secret love is show tunes.

However for sexual early ‘90s music (never typed that sentence before) I think Julian would be pretty into Madonna and probably be playing a cassette of Divinyl’s “I Touch Myself” on his personal Walkman quite a bit and realise he had started possibly humming aloud in public places.

And when I say he was a Madonna fan I mean like very into it.

Though it’s not ‘90s I feel Julian would also REALLY vibe with Scissor Sisters early 2000s music.

Took a break for a bit but the mod of this site is back and answering all those Ghosts asks I know everyone’s just DYING to have responses for!

Headcanons of moody teen Thomas Throne? He’s definitely a book nerd.

MOODY TEEN THOMAS HERE WE GO!

10000% A book nerd, he has all the versions, he has all the releases. He keeps his books in pristine condition. You want to borrow one? Nope he’s not having it. Or if he does then he is watching you like a hawk, if that book comes back with so much as the faintest mark on it then he will make you pay. (In actual money because let’s face it, he ain’t hurting a fly).

Pretentious art kid as well, Make a flippant comment about art or music at your peril because he will go off on a rant and you will be forced to back out of the room slowly. 

Although he comes across as moody if someone shows some sort of the same interest as he does in something then he has a lot of time for them. Match him to a level and he’ll want to be your friend immediately. Challenge him with valid points and he’ll respect you even more. 

One of those that’s like ‘this makes me feel closer to the earth’ and you’re there like ‘Thomas…That is water in a jar…dirty water in a jar’ and he goes ‘IT’S ART’ yeah I can see that. 

Anyone got anything else I’m running out? 

[telling-ghost-s-stories]

I love this so much and it’s so fitting. Also, locking himself in his room, playing sad music just because, always having an existential crisis to the point people are no longer concerned.

The Captain has a flashback

Song: Bei Mir Bist Du Schon - The Andrews Sisters

Inspired by @ms-random

[fightthemonthelanding]

The Ghosty Group: *standing up for themselves*

Audience: *satisfied*

Captain: *jumps into defensive stance, moving backwards*

Audience: I am a sinner. I have betrayed those who I held safe, who I swore to protect. I am not worthy of trust. I am not worthy of even beholding you. This is the crime of the highest order, for which I shall never receive true forgiveness. Sorry is too pathetic a word.

[incorrectghostsquotes]

Robin: But it hurts my Robin’s apple.

Thomas: For the last time, it’s not named after each individual man!

[fightthemonthelanding]

The Captain and Julian are both chaotic alignments pretending to be lawful alignments to varying degrees of success.

Ghosts (2019)

Someone get this boy out of the lake

[telling-ghost-s-stories]

Imagine Thomas getting fed up that it’s taking so long for his portrait to be painted.

(1- Volume up. 2- For anyone who doesn’t get the reference, here’s the original commercial. I don’t know if this is just an American thing or if it’s universal at this point). (Audio from the JG Wentworth commercial and the 1945 Dorian Gray because that just needed to be referenced).
