do you think any Lorre characters knit? I know Conseil can sew (he mends his own clothing in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea) but like....I have a feeling there's gotta be someone who knits. Maybe Felix Gillie?

To be very honest, I can’t really imagine any Lorre character doing anything in fabric arts like knitting or embroidery… while I enjoy inventing modern characters for Lorre to play, all the ones he actually did on screen are too wrapped up in their time period for me to imagine them doing anything more than repairing clothes or tailoring. That said, I do think Felix would be tempted to knit if it was something he knew would make Amaryllis happy! And perhaps the General, mostly because that man is a chaotic bisexual and I can imagine him doing something like that for the hell of it (maybe stealing some lady's knitwork first)

(Also I briefly thought of Joel Cairo, but then I realised that man couldn’t hold a needle if his life depended on it)

WIP Wednesday

And now for something completely different!

Of course, I didn't expect to start this at all, but I don't make the rules about what I get to write 🤷

[Mature language under the cut!]

🕵️‍♂️

“Stella Spotlight?” It must have come out louder than he expected, because he cut himself off. He repeated it in a half-whisper, as if he was worried someone could overhear them in the giant apartment even though she'd told him that Stella was out and the rest of the staff had the day off. “You’ve slept with Stella Spotlight? Oh my god.” 

“Well you’ve fucked the richest man in the universe!” 

“It’s not the same!” he protested. “He wasn’t the richest man in the universe then! He was just some millionaire’s uptight son I was supposed to look after.” 

“And look after him, you did!” She winked exaggeratedly. 

“I would never have touched him if he’d been Zéro Janvier Zéro Janvier back then. But you! Stella Spotlight, holy shit. Do you know how much we used to talk about her in the barracks?”

this is kind of a series of questions in one big question but do you think any Peter Lorre characters have tattoos and if so, who is it, where do they have it, and what does the tattoo look like? (I kinda have this feeling that at least one of them has a tattoo that says "Kleine" (baby girl in german) in cursive and it's embellished with hearts)

Oh this is such a fun ask!! I spent way too much time on this and it’s three in the morning now but here goes!

First up is Victor Emmric from The Verdict:

Everyone’s favourite morbid illustrator from the Victorian era, if anyone has a tattoo, he surely does. I’m imagining a gothic Victorian vampire tattoo with an edgy snake across, and because Victor is somewhat of a wine woman and life man, he’s also got a very shitty tattoo drawn on in a drunken mood on his hip. Live every regret tattoo it has an ex-flame named on there, later corrected in another drunk mood with another ill-fated name

Next, there’s Marko from Black Angel:

Ever the sentimentalist, I think it’s extremely in character to have a tattoo on his chest with his daughter’s name on there. I’m thinking it’ll be something very simple, a bunch of roses for instance, because Marko isn’t one for grand gestures.

Kismet from My Favourite Brunette:

Our (my) favourite French-speaking, knife-wielding, civics test studying butler/gardener! This man is definitely tattooed, and I’m going all in. I’m giving him a badass French tattoo with obscure symbolism, knives, blackjack and hookers. A bizarre collection of symbolism only he knows and understands and something that’ll instantly intimidate mild-mannered photographers who fancy themselves to be a detective!

Gino from The Chase:

Love or hate this film, I certainly love its weirdness and proto-Lynchian atmosphere. Gino is an Italian name, so I settled on some Neapolitan mafia tattoos, and I think they fit well with the character.

The General from The Secret Agent:

Does this man look like he makes well-thought out decisions? I’m imagining an early 20th century version of a tramp stamp: on the lower back just above his crack, a sword piercing a heart, a crudely drawn woman cleaved in two, and some latin meaning ‘shit bitch’. An edgy shitpost of a tattoo! Also to answer your question, this man is the most likely candidate to wake up one morning with ‘babygirl’ tattooed on his buttcheeks. The design of which I’ll leave as an exercise to the reader…

Finally, Abbott from The Man Who Knew too Much:

The man has a scar and painted hair. How would he not have a tattoo? But, being Abbott, it’s gonna be a map of the prison he last stayed (and escaped from). Also an anarchist black cat because I like it and I think he carries his politics on his sleeve.

I was too tired to draw more, so honorary mentions to:

Nick Dramoshag from Quicksand. He’s bitter, he runs an arcade, he drinks, he smokes, he’s a nasty crook with a switchblade… This is definitely a man with a faded sweetheart tattoo.

Marius from Passage to Marseille. He was a prisoner on Devil’s Island, I don’t think many would come away uninked from there. Maybe the amazing lockpick has a little safe in a heart tattooed on his arm?

Major Siegfried Grüning from Lancer Spy. My headcanon is that this guy eventually becomes The General, so he’s gonna have the ‘shitbitch’ tramp stamp and ‘babygirl’.

Mr Strangdour from Muscle Beach Party. The strongest man in the world, I think he might have some fun ones under that turtleneck of his.

Peter characters/parodies medical issues. strange ask but I'm curious of your headcanons.

Huh! Good question.

Other than mentioning before on another ask that I can see most, if not all(living) lorre characters/caricatures having some form of iron deficiency, I can't say I've thought too much about potential medical issues for any of them.

I guess I can see Polo and Louie being very accident prone and ending up in hospitals and clinics more than most people due to bad luck and a tendency to have their heads in the clouds. The General probably gets a lot of injuries as a result of fights which he mostly instigates. Also its not an original headcanon of mine, but this seems like a good place to bring up @stillwaitin76 's idea of Cairo having chronic pain, which I appreciate for how it gives a practical reason for his cane and adds some extra depth to his personality and self image

As for caricatures; Slappy and Slippy both probably have a plethora of diseases and parasites from the stray animals they play with and Ren has rabies

Danny was livid.

The Guys In White had been following Phantom around constantly and while they weren't much of a threat, they were a massive nuisance. They had shot him down on Thursday and caused him to crash into some poor kids birthday cake in the park.

On Friday they had accidentally released ghost rats into the school.

On Saturday they had somehow managed to turn Paulinas hair ectoplasm green. She refused to leave her bedroom until it was reversed

On Sunday they tried to commandeer his parents GAV and earned the ire of his mom. They found out exactly why that was a bad idea.

On Monday they bardged into Danny's classroom, interrupting his math test because they were looking for a ghost parrot. It was mostly harmless but kept insulting them in a cheery tone. Danny decided he liked that bird.

We won't speak about what happened on Tuesday.

On Wednesday, he scowled at an agent that had accidentally blasted him and his friends with liquid ectoplasm while they were sitting and eating lunch. It was then that Danny began plotting his revenge.

That night he when ghost and lead the GIW on a while goose chase. Did danny take them across state lines? Yes. Did he manage to pull a massive following of these creeps? Also yes.

Did he plan for his target-the guy he had been leading them to- to already be in cuffs when he arrived in Gotham? No. Not at all.

"Hey, uh..." the words died on his tongue as Batman- The Batman- turned to him with narrowed eyes. Mustering his will, he started again, "Could you let him out? Just for a little bit?"

"No."

"Aw, Cmon!"

Condiment King began raving about something, but Danny didn't particularly care to pay attention. "If you're not going to let him out, then can you at least call the rest of the paw patrol? I wanna ask if they wanna throw mud at evil secret organization people. For enrichment." Danny gave his best, most cheeky smile for extra measure.

"Hn."
