Murdoch mysteries will always be a life saver and a cherished lifeline from back in uni. Watching this silly little show every night for 6 months keeping our sanity alive means the world to us. One of our (K) favourite characters is this guy here. Detective Llewelyn Watts played by Daniel maslany. Looking back now I realise he was our first connection and association with both autism and being Queer. This painting is in admiration for a handsome quirky detective.

New tarot card! This time, it's for a show that just reached 17 seasons, if you can believe that- Murdoch Mysteries!
And here is Llewellyn Watts, as the Page of Wands.
Tumblr media
Now- the obligatory explanation (in broken english, yay, how lucky!) for those who are interested!
Upright, this card is the symbol of a free spirit, guided by their inspirations and ideas. I do feel like it fits our one and only Watts- never really fitting the mould of societal conveniences, but always following his inner self. It's also a card for limitless potential, often in the form of creative restlessness, which again- he does have, and the show should ~really~ explore that more. Overall, it means you embrace the opportunity to start out a new journey, without necessarily having a solid plan in place or even knowing where you are headed- but you are excited and intrigued about the possibilities. For a character always searching for himself, well-
All of that, with the advice to try and filter your thoughts, sometimes. Especially when you're talking. Even if we all love Detective Your-Wife-Is-Not-Pretty Watts.
Reversed, the card can mean that the consultant is being held back by limiting beliefs- such as, well, for Watts, the rules of the society he lives in. Which is why the card is ponctuated with references to current or future instance of homophobia and antisemitism in Canada. On the other side, Llewellyn can also represent (as would William and many other characters of the show!) someone carrying newly-formed ideas, that can have been tampered by obstacles and opposition. The card can also mean that you tried many new projects, which did not worked as you had hoped... and isn't that the story of his life?
Overall, this is a card deeply linked with someone engaging or trying to engage in a spiritual journey to discover themself. A free spirit who can't, and who should not submit the the limiting beliefs of the society around.
Tumblr media
It was so fun to do, eh! The wand is not really supposed to be a wand, sure, but I feel like Llewellyn is less a wooden-staff-guy than a magic-wand-guy. And sure, the book on Wine and Philosophy or the Pretzel in the background where not *necessary*, per se, but that's just so- him, and those cards are always about representing the character in the best possible way.
Hope you'll like it!

I love this scene because I feel like half of these could be used as some very good reaction gifs.

>> If you know me, you're most likely acquainted to my passion for dressing up characters — today's choice fell on none other than Llewellyn Watts and the main colour was picked : grey— silver, more precisely

Still not getting into Murdoch Mysteries; however, my best friend has most definitely dragged me into absolutely loving this guy.

Watts is a criminally underutilized character and should be in more episodes like they for real made him super complex and gave him a complicated backstory just to not explore any of it?!

this is my new profile picture hes a dormant blorbo from a canadian period drama hes a gay jewish autistic detective his name is Llewelyn watts and i love him so dearly the show is murdoch mysteries i reccommend it but warning it is a cop drama and while it has fairly liberal politics it still justifies and maintains policing, also half the plot is the main couple taking 12 seasons to get together, i like it because it can be madcap but also serious, like one episode will be "oh no someone was killed with a pellet fired from a machine in the ceiling that was set to go off with a whistle that belonged to alexandar grahm bell" and the next one will be "period typical but still upsetting racial or homophobic violence", "son kills father to stop domestic abuse and one of our characters takes the blame for it", then it will go back to Terrance meyers getting stuck in a tree or whatever hes going to do next and the main character invents the pogo stick

Watts with glasses and a mustache is definitely a great Watts.

at this point I've gotten into gifmaking just so I can put together as many reaction gifs as possible for that moment when I admit to my IRL friends that I much prefer weird Canadian 1900s murder mystery shows where everyone gets microwaved to death than the (USAmerican) mainstream stuff.

Omg I have never seen Watts look as sad as when Murdoch was telling him that one of the Mennonites might not be nice after all. This poor boy just wants some peace 😭
ETA okay I forgot about My Brother's Keeper. After that, then.
