Thank you Fish and @les-gnossiennes-fantomatiques! Not one of these is exciting, it was all just fact checking little things to make sure I didn’t include details that were embarrassingly wrong. 🥲
did Victorians eat toast
history french pastilles
winter in Perros-Guirec
Edwardian wallpaper
native flowers Brittany
Tagging @from-aldebaran @box5intern @brendadaaedestler @nerdywriter36
tag game: last five google searches
@brendadaaedestler tagged me to list the last 5 things I googled for a fic! I've gone on so many wikipedia journeys this week, but these are the things I actually searched for (in firefox, so technically not google but whatever):
historical cook tent
french regency balls
duke of orléans
louis XIV
Norse mythology
tagging @kotaka-kun @emotionalmotionsicknessxx @flora-gray @shinyfire-0 @ashadeintheshade but no pressure!

Saturday, April 27, 2024 • 9 p.m. EST: James Gant, Paige Blankson & Matt Blaker (London 2023)
We've loved every one of these actors separately (they are all of "broke the stream chat" caliber), but now we get to watch them together! Hooray! I'm sure we will be left feeling totally normal about this performance.
As always, the stream will be on cy.tube and shy anons are welcome. For more info, please see the Saturday Streams FAQ! Link and password will be posted here at 8:45.

"Realisation" sketch (small explanation just-in-case:erik after he saw his reflection for the first time was scared and destroyed the mirror just to realize that this whole time it was HIM)

Dark Week 2024 UPDATE!
New Date of event May 27-June 1st!!!
Tumblr media
I've received lots of feedback this year from many folks who really want to participate in Dark Week but require more time. (including me!) Therefore, it's being postponed a few weeks!
Let all of your darkest versions of your beloved POTO characters out to play May 27- June 1st!
Murder, Madness, Mayhem, Misery and Macabre galore!
This is an opportunity to really delve down into the most twisted and deranged versions of your POTO characters and give them some life.  
Here is how to participate:
1. Follow the tag POTO Dark Week 2024
2. Create new dark POTO content, this could be fics, art, memes, posts, whatever! Use the POTO Dark Week 2024 tag when you post.
3. Repost or reblog any dark works you have created in the past. Use the POTO Dark Week 2024 tag when you post.
4. Support the dark works of others by reading, leaving feedback or reblogging.
Note: Taboo, gore or any other graphic subjects are welcome, it is descent into darkness after all, but be sure to tag or provide some warning for sensitive readers.

Chapter 27: Homecoming
FINISHED!!!! COMPLETED!!! DONE!!!!
Erik/Christine, Circus AU, Enemies to Lovers, Slowburn, 100k+
Erik Claudin couldn’t remember when he learned that he was a burden. He supposed it was when he was five, watching his mother shake her head at him, a carpet bag in her hand, a mask in the other, his first. Or, perhaps, it was when, in the tiny house, the flames surrounded him and he could not breathe, and yet his mother yelled, and cried, and the priest said he was cursed. Either way, he knew he had to leave. He packed his little bag with his meager clothes and set off on the road, only to be struck and nearly killed by a racing carriage. He still had a scar on his leg from a hoof, and he was still a burden to his mother.   As a boy he knew he was unwanted. Why, then, did it hurt him so terribly now?

Thank you again to @victorianandthespian for this awesome commission from (gosh literally last year) - my motivation for finishing was getting to post this lovely work and I finally did it!!

I firmly believe what ever you’re obsessed with at 11/12 years old becomes a core part of who you are, regardless if you lose interest in it or not. Maybe some of you were lucky and were obsessed with warrior cats or smth, and if you’re real unlucky it was probably twilight.

We love Greg and we love Emilie, but we haven't watched them together! I browsed about two minutes of footage to make the gif below and it's the kind of stuff that makes the chat go feral, so consider yourself warned.
