Wow that sure is a search result

I have poison ivy. I'm trying to get it out of my yard. I... I don't think I need to bring in the six foot tall ghost of a bride with unfinished business to haunt the poison ivy out of my yard but thank...you? I think?

I'm pretty sure if I did, I wouldn't be worried about the poison ivy anymore. Or much of anything else either!

I have a very rough idea in my head that I don't think I can clearly articulate beyond "And that concludes tonight's reports on German air forc—WHAT'S THIS? IT'S KING ARTHUR WITH A STEEL CHAIR"

IDK what this is about, but I want to know more.

This isn't exactly the same idea but it could be but there is more rattling around in here so:

  • The Blitz here manages to qualify as Britain's Darkest Hour, thus triggering the return of Arthur from the Realm Avalon.
  • He does not speak a lick of modern English. He speaks an unholy mishmash of Brittonic and Late Classical Latin.
  • (Honestly I can see the latter becoming a plot point if they manage to get their hands on a Roman Catholic priest to act as a translator. It wouldn't be a perfect arrangement, but probably better than anything else.)
  • Truthfully he probably gets mistaken for a madman.
  • Somehow manages to steal a Spitfire out from under the RAF's nose, proceeds to use it to bring down like half an enemy squadron on his own, then lands in a field in the middle of nowhere.
  • Police and RAF converge on his location on account of the whole "stealing a plane" thing. They eventually overwhelm him with sheer numbers, but he manages to knock out an impressive number of them in the process. I mean, come on. It's Arthur.

"a catholic priest" i mean yeah sure why not but JRRTOLKIEN himself was alive and a teacher at the time so go big or go home.

You know what sure why not let's just make literal real-life JRRT himself a character in this Arthurian return story, he deserves it.

when I saw "and it's King Arthur with a steel chair" I thought someone was going to propose a WWE / Idylls of the King fusion and, not going to lie, my brain broke at the idea of some Hulkamania King Arthur bullshit.

saw someone mention a derry girls/yellowjackets au and listen michelle would suggest cannibalism the second the plane hit the ground. they wouldnt need to run out of food she would immediately be like “well sorry james looks like we’re gonna have to eat you.” erin would care more about missing a concert than being stranded. clare’s having a panic attack. they find out after only like a week that orla’s known a way out this whole time and told no one cause they never asked.

I've never seen an ep of yellowjackets but I feel in my heart this is correct

BRO?

Reblog if you're self indulgent and perverted lmao

Fanfic is not inherently degrading to the original art. The idea of "fanfiction" is a relatively new one; the idea of "I heard a story and I liked the characters but I want them to do something else/wish the story had ended differently/want them all naked" is as old as humanity. Shakespeare, Dante, the Arthurian legends, big chunks of Greek mythology, much of the Bible, it's all fanfic, one way or another.

And does this person really think authors of original work don't write it because they enjoy fantasizing about certain concepts and characters? You can figure out a lot about various authors' kinks by looking at their work. Just saying.

A daunting number of people seem to have taken "you can figure out a lot about various authors' kinks by looking at their work" as me somehow endorsing the worryingly puritanical take of the original ask. And like...if you can read my oeuvre and not figure out that I have a thing for mermaids, dramatic reunions, found family, and overly complex problems being resolved by thirty seconds of communication, I don't know how I can help you.
