…And to think that I didn’t quite like the first episode and considered not watching the rest! Phileas Fogg turned out to be such a darling, so sad and so delightfully tormented. Yes, he’s not the Phileas Fogg from Jules Verne's book, cold-blooded and self-assured, but I gradually came to appreciate this version more. I have a thing for neurodivergent characters—and David Tennant always delivers :)

If you haven't watched Around the world in 80 days with David, or if you simply don't want to get your heart broken by a Fogg x Crowley comparison, you should maybe scroll past this.
Oh, you're still here? Good.
Imagine this: It's been a few months since Aziraphale left. Crowley has been spending them drinking and sleeping away the days, ever since the second the angel disappeared from his eyes.
He hasn't been in contact with anyone, ignoring Muriel's attempts to get him out of there.
And he won't talk about it. He can't talk about it.
So, one day, Muriel stops by his flat to check up on him, finds him deliriously drunk, slumped over at the feet of his couch, probably fell during his attempt to grab another bottle and couldn't possibly get back up.
He's slurring, his hair a mess, his clothes rumpled. He must have at some point ripped his shirt open, maybe in despair or simple overheating, because Muriel could see his now bare chest, bracketed by his shirt, but there were buttons scattered around him.
Muriel hurries over to his side, grabs his hands and tries to get his attention.
"Mister Crowley?" They take his hand in theirs and give it a firm squeeze. "Please, Mister Crowley?" The demon won't look at them. "Crowley?!" They say, unintentionally in a similar way Aziraphale used to call out his name when he was worried.
His eyes slowly open and attempt to focus on the blurry, blindingly white image in front of him. Muriel repeats his name, and Crowley finally speaks.
"Aziraphale...?" His eyes are as open as he could get them, but the image is fuzzy as ever. Still, there's only one person his unimaginably drunk brain wants to see, so that's what he sees.
"No, it's me, Muriel," they try and correct him, but he doesn't seem to be able to listen. Or even care.
"My darling Aziraphale, you came back! I always knew you would." A couple of tears escape the demon's eyes, his glasses nowhere to be seen to cover them up as usual. "I always knew," he repeats, his voice breaking. "Well, no, I didn't know, but I hoped." He attempts to squeeze the warm hand still holding his. "I dreamed," comes a whisper.
"Mister Crowley-" Muriel attempts again, but gets interrupted once again.
Crowley brings their joined hands on his naked chest. "Feel my heart, Aziraphale," he whines his name. "It's always been yours. Waiting for you." He's properly crying now, sobs escape his mouth but there's also a faint smile there. "Now you're finally here, I can tell you everything!"
Muriel couldn't stand interrupting him again, he was smiling. Clearly, his own brain was deceiving him, but he was smiling.
He told them, thinking it was Aziraphale, about his travels. His blessings, when he was doing Aziraphale's job. And then he told them about his blessings, when he definitely wasn't doing Aziraphale's job.
"I saved a young boy's life!"
"That's wonderful," Muriel cooed.
"I just want you to be proud of me," Crowley admitted. "Just once." He looked them in the eyes, or tried to, anyway. "You see, angel, I've been alone for such a very long time. You were right to go. To leave me."
Muriel wanted to stop him, comfort him, tell him he was wrong. But he didn't seem to want to hear anything they had to say. So they remained silent.
"I could never have been good enough for you, I think you knew that from the start." His voice was now raw with emotion, no more whining. It was as if he was numb to those things he was saying. Like he'd accepted them. "I think we both knew."
With that, he closed his eyes and went to sleep. Soon, soft snores started coming from his mouth, replacing the heartbreaking sobs.

This idea has been bugging me for a while, so I decided to turn it into a thing and now you all have to suffer with me. (tagging @thinking-with-quadrants)
Welcome to the shitpost titled:
(drumroll please)
How is Phileas Fogg like a Disney Princess?
Item 1: Does he have magic hair?
Tumblr media
✔ Can we even argue the point?
Item 2: Magic hands?
Tumblr media
✔ You know it
Item 3: Do animals talk to him?
Tumblr media
✔ I mean... probably not saying anything nice, but... still counts right?
Item 4: Was he poisoned?
Tumblr media
✔ The proof is in the pudding... er... datura seeds
Item 5: Cursed?
Tumblr media
✔ Okay, not really, but... just humor me
Item 6: Kidnapped or enslaved?
Tumblr media
✔ Kinda?
Item 7: okay, we're skipping the making a deal with an underwater sea witch bit for obvious reasons, although I must say, I wouldn't mind seeing Fogg with a merman tail 😏
Item 8: Ever had a true love's kiss?
Tumblr media
✔ Oh, we're definitely gonna give him that one
Item 9: Have daddy issues?
Tumblr media
✔ And then some....
Item 10: Do people assume all of his problems got solved because a big strong man showed up?
Tumblr media
✔ *insert a shit-eating grin here*
Welp, I'm gonna go hide now

Once again some tumblr post introduced me to a variety of David Tennant movies and shows I had never even heard of, one of them being Around the World in 80 Days. And now I've watched it. And I love how awkward Phileas looked holdig not just one but two weapons

Headcanon # 1: These three definitely have a thing going on. Abigail and Passepartout have a passionate fling (with a bit of playful Femdom involved), and for a while Phileas Fogg is only watching them from afar with those sad eyes of his, until they very firmly say he's a part of the family :) He might (or might not) want anything carnal. He's theirs anyway.

Headcanon # 2: Phileas Fogg is a fobwatched Time Lord :)

The Doctor Who / Around The World In 80 Days (probably very un-original) Human Nature-esque AU where Phileas Fogg is the 10th Doctor who used the chameleon arch to hide from alien enemies while time travelling. However, some of his adventurous tendencies begin to leak out, leading to Phileas devising up the plan of navigating around the world in 80 days. Passepartout and Abigail end up accompanying this strange man with a fascination for discovering the unknown, but they're actually two of 10's companions undercover, making sure that he doesn't do anything too stupid to endanger himself. A TARDIS team that care for each other, even if it's not said aloud...
Eventually, Phileas would have to remember his true life, and realise that his love for Estella was nothing more than an echo of a memory... Passepartout and Abigail would be there to pick up the pieces of Phileas/10's broken heart for what didn't exist...
(Part of me wants to write something for this xD)

Marbled Monday
This Marbled Monday book is one we posted about recently for the anniversary of the main character setting off on his voyage around the world—Around the World in 80 Days by Jules Verne, as published by the Limited Editions Club in 1962.
While the slipcase it was issued in is covered in plain, navy blue paper, the book itself is covered in "French hand-marbled paper in a deep blue marine pattern" (publication announcement). Marine is not the name of the pattern, just a description of the colors used. This pattern falls under the category of Fantasy patterns and would be created using a stylus to make the organic swirls. There is also a very light speckling of gold in the marbling. The spine is vellum with a gold label printed with the title.
