I desperately need someone to make an AU where WK ends up going with Fionna, Cake and Simon to other worlds and shit and he and Simon end up becoming vampires in 'the star', becoming better people, WK getting his crown nerfed/deactivated and by the end of the series they become travelling companions that go from world to world, exploring and learning because they don't feel like they belong anywhere so the only comfort they find is in each other because if someone doesn't do that, then I'll do it and nobody wants that

With her book The Return of Martin Guerre (1983), the historian Natalie Zemon Davis, who has died aged 94, attracted a wide readership and inspired future historians. It came out of working as a historical consultant on a film of the same name released the previous year, starring Gérard Depardieu and Nathalie Baye, and directed by Daniel Vigne.
Martin Guerre, a peasant farmer in the 16th-century Pyrenees, left his wife Bertrande to go on a journey, only to have his marital role usurped by an impostor who “returned” pretending to be him. After some years of cohabitation, Bertrande denounced the impostor, her testimony seemingly confirmed by the return of the real Martin Guerre. The impostor was duly tried and executed.
The film-makers’ questions about period detail and behaviour intrigued Davis. But other aspects of the movie genre troubled her, so she went back to the archives and wrote up her own compact account of 120 pages.
A gripping narrative and a lesson in method, Davis’s book raised questions about the reliability of evidence and the motives and worldviews of peasant men and women from a faraway place and time. It is an example of a microhistory, where historians turn away from the big canvas of kings, queens and battles to understand ordinary lives, often through a highly localised case study.
The Return of Martin Guerre was one of a series of works including Society and Culture in Early Modern France (1975), Fiction in the Archives (1987), Women on the Margins (1995) and The Gift in Sixteenth-Century France (2000). Davis’s trademark was the longer essay or biographical study, often focused on marginal or misunderstood personalities, all spiced with a sharp attention to issues of religion, gender, sex, class, money and power. Historical records for her were never dull: she once described them as “a magic thread that links me to people long since dead and with situations that have crumbled to dust”.
Born in Detroit, Natalie was the daughter of Helen (nee Lamport) and Julian Zemon, a textile trader, both children of east European Jewish immigrants to the US. While studying at Smith College, Massachusetts, at the age of 19 she fell in love with Chandler Davis, a brilliant mathematician and socialist activist; they married in 1948 and went on to have a son and two daughters. Her first degree, from Smith (1949), was followed by a master’s at Radcliffe College (1950).
Her life with Davis was productive and fulfilling but also complicated her early career, as his principled stances against McCarthy-era restrictions on political expression led to both him and her being barred from a number of posts, and from travelling abroad. This she needed to do for her doctorate on 16th-century France.
After finally gaining her PhD at Michigan University in 1959, Davis went on to hold positions at Toronto, moved in 1971 to the University of California, Berkeley, where she was appointed professor, and in 1978 to Princeton, retiring in 1996. She became only the second woman to serve as president of the American Historical Association (1987), and the first to serve as Eastman professor at Oxford (1994). In 2012 she was appointed Companion of the Order of Canada, and in the US was awarded a National Humanities Medal.
Davis helped establish programmes in women’s studies and taught courses on history and film. Her AHA presidential address, History’s Two Bodies (1988), summed up her thinking about gender in history. It was also the first such address to be printed with illustrations. Her book Slaves on Screen (2002) was one of the first in-depth treatments of this topic by a professional historian.
In her last two books, Davis returned to the exploration of mixed identities. Trickster Travels (2006) was about the 16th-century scholar Leo Africanus, whose complicated Jewish and Muslim roots in North Africa she expertly unpicked. Listening to the Languages of the People (2022) focused on the 19th-century scholar Lazare Sainéan, a Romanian-Jewish folklorist and lexicographer who published one of the world’s first serious studies of Yiddish, but had to abandon his Romanian homeland for Paris in 1901.
At the time of her death, Davis was completing a study of slave families in colonial Suriname: it is hoped this will appear under the announced title of Braided Histories. In this way she continued to explore unconventional topics, going against the grain of Eurocentric history and looking instead at the boundaries of identity and belonging in very different settings.
Visiting many universities and research centres in her retirement, Davis encouraged younger scholars by conveying the potential of history to inspire empathy and hope for change. While at my own institution, the University of Amsterdam, in 2016, she made it her main aim to talk to students rather than to other professors. In 2022-23 she presented her latest work in online seminars, and wrote and corresponded actively until shortly before her death from cancer.
Chandler died in 2022. Natalie is survived by her three children, Aaron, Hannah and Simone; four grandchildren; three great-grandchildren; and a brother, Stanley.

Ha muerto Natalie Zemon Davis (1928-2023), una de mis grandes memorias de mis años de estudiante de historia fue la lectura de "El regreso de Martin Guerre".
A través de los años estos tres libros se convirtieron en algunos de mis favoritos.
¡Qué la tierra le sea leve y su nombre sea una bendición!

The Return of Martin Guerre (1983). In medieval France, some villagers challenge a man's claim of identity when he (as he says) returns home from some time in the army.
I didn't know much about this case going in, but have read about it pretty compulsively since finishing it. What a fascinating story, and one this movie depicts with a lot of humanity and empathy. It's a mystery, it's a romance, it's a harrowing story about identity and worth, with some pretty killer costuming and a distinct tone. If anything, I do wish though that we'd gotten a bit more of a sense of certain dynamics, but overall, it's a really interesting period crime drama. 8/10.

okay so me and my friend @summrsbuffy have talked a lot about zemon (Zoe and Lemon) and we used to low-key think there were fruity vibes and now it's more like High Key (idk if you saw my set about it but I'm telling you) and I definitely agree that Lemon def had feelings for Zoe at some point and didn't know how to deal WOULD YOU CARE TO DISCUSS
Is that the “a rival is a crush you’re mad about having” post? Yes I’ve seen it and I am obsessed with it!!!!
I don’t know if Lemon ever had like capital F feelings you know? But I definitely think there was an instant attraction? But in a way that Lemon couldn’t recognize?
Like, okay…maybe this is a hot take but I don’t think George had deep feelings for Zoe straight from the jump. I think that came somewhere between their [redacted cause he’s a child predator] movie date in 107 and all the stuff that happened with his dad in 116/117. I think initially it was maybe just a little bit of attraction for George, maybe not even a full crush.
I think LEMON was kinda projecting onto George in the beginning. Like, oh well I think this new lady doctor is super pretty so I bet George does too! I can’t have George hanging around her, he might get ideas in his head! (Says the person who definitely has ideas in HER head)
(Also because I’m me and I love Hayland very much, I would be remiss not to add that a lot of Lemon’s initial jealousy of Zoe comes not from her connection with George but because Lemon thinks there’s something going on between Zoe and Lavon in the first two episodes!)
And like as the series goes on, I think Lemon and Zoe become reluctantly aware of just how much they understand each other. Like they both have very similar parental abandonment issues that only the other one can relate to that I find really really fascinating. Like the speeches they give each other about how the other will be a great mother…those are speeches that could’ve only come from them. Because Lemon and Zoe both Get It in a way I don’t think any other hod character really does. They get what it’s like to feel completely unloved by a parent, to fear that you’ll turn into them, but also while still desperately craving their love and approval and yeah…
I’m getting off track here but yes, Lemon and Zoe are very fruity and I think they liked each other as people as early as like…118 maybe. But they would never ever admit to it because pretending to hate each other is like an intricate ritual in a way??
Idk and there’s just so many times where one calls the other pretty or something, and like also!!! The way they often parallel Rose/Magnolia who are like…possibly the queerest hod ship lololol yeah it all just makes me go 👀👀👀
(Oh also when Didi finds that picture of Lemon in Lavon’s desk and Zoe lies and says it’s hers and the lie is that Zoe was trying to look like Lemon?? Instead of just saying she has a crush on Lemon?? That’s capital S stupid!!! If Zoe was a real friend she would’ve said she had a crush on Lemon with her full chest, the only reason Didi bought that nonsense is cause she’s canonically a little air-headed lolol)

Halloween headcanons 🎃🦇🕸🕷
Going thru a few of devon's characters and guessing what they'd be getting up to on Halloween
#1 Adam
Tumblr media
He's most likely taking you to some frat party, nothing too special, but he does dress up - well kinda. He puts a little fake blood around his mouth, says he's a vampire and calls it a day. Halloween is more about the parties than the spooks for him.
#2 Freddy Klein
Tumblr media
Halloween is a business opportunity for him, knowing that parents are gonna be taking their kids trick or treating, he organises a few spooky games and refreshment to try and get their attention to the dealership. You help the kids play games like bobbing for apples, while Freddy tries to sell cars to their parents. Once the night is over, the two of you celebrate some successful sales wrapped up on the sofa with a couple of beers.
#3 Casper Galloway
Tumblr media
Casper HATES Halloween, he's a big scaredy cat. Even the doorbell ringing from trick or treaters makes him jump out of his skin. He's still pretty freaked out from the whole zemon thing, so you go out of your way to distract him on Halloween. You order a pizza and snuggle up in bed to watch anything other than a horror film - he usually picks a rom com because let's face it, this man is a huuuuge softie.
#4 Mike (rip picture quality)
Tumblr media
You and Mike go to great lengths to make Halloween fun for Angel. You carve pumpkins together, make her a little boo basket and take her trick or treating. You let her stay up an hour past her bed time on Halloween, so she can watch a spooky film for kids, like monster House. Once she's been put to bed, you and Mike split a bottle of wine while watching a classic horror film and fall asleep on the sofa together.
#5 Dean Taylor
Tumblr media
According to Dean, Halloween is just an excuse to go out and raise hell without getting in trouble. He's been known to graffiti people's houses, set people's bins on fire and even mug drunk party goers. He's kinda an ass.
Where are you while all this is going on? You're at home none the wiser, waiting for him to get back so you can watch a movie together. You're under the impression that he's just out getting some snacks.. but now he's been gone an hour and you're pretty sure the store is closed by now.. oh, never mind, he just got back. He always seems to show up juuuust when you start to worry.
#Rodrick Heffley (yeah i made you wait until the very end, I know that's who you came here for)
Tumblr media
He's throwing a rager, and you better believe he's gone all out with his costume. He's painted his face to look like a skeleton and ordered a cheap robe off amazon so he can go as the grim reaper. He usually gets pretty drunk at parties, but on Halloween, every time without a doubt, he gets absolutely wasted. It ends up being your job to carry him up to bed and try to wipe his face paint off him so he doesn't ruin his bedsheets. He ends up getting very clingy and insists that you stay and cuddle with him instead of going back to the party - which you have no problem with at all.
A/n happy Halloween everyone! Hope you enjoyed these hcs, and let me know if you think I should do more "How different characters would act in a scenario" type headcanons- because this was a lot of fun to write!
As always, replies and reblogs are greatly appreciated, they help me figure out what sort of stuff people wanna see more of :^)
Requests are still open! Check my pinned post for details
