Character task 02: Relationships

Devlin and Cassandra / You and I - Pvris

The love of his life, the one that made the rowdy, ragged guy with nothing but a series of hook ups and one night stands want something more for the first time in his life. Cass is so much more than just Devlin’s wife, she is his best friend, his light in the darkness, the one he relies on for pretty much anything and everything. While they do have their ups and downs, their relationship is filled with passion, laughter and play. He constantly tries to hold onto their sweet honeymoon phase and cherishes all the time they get to spend together, but alone. Not a day goes by that Devlin doesn’t deeply appreciate her or think himself wildly lucky to have found her. Its only recently that he’s started to accept and trust in that she isn’t going to suddenly up and leave when she realizes what kind of man she’s married. In her eyes she is such a good and kindhearted person that at times, he can’t believe she’s with a man like him who has scores of blood on his hands. @cassxtaylor

Devlin and Nikolas / All Along The Watchtower - Billy Valentine & The Forest Rangers

There were times when Devlin used to take his big brother role very seriously with Nikolas, times when he’d give plenty of advice, try to be a guiding force in his brothers life without the abuse their parents tended to add. He’s often ended up parenting Nik more than he probably should, with their age difference that was just a part of the package. However, since growing up more their brotherly bond became a lot more about mutual interests in raising hell and how good of a team, near unbeatable, they were when joining forces. Dev has always admired his brother greatly, for his brains and smarts. They have arguments and fights just like any pair of siblings would have, but they tend to solve them more maturely now at their age. Devlin would do anything for his brother, die if he has to, and despite his often teasing remarks he genuinely cares a heck of a lot for Nik’s happiness and well being. @grimreapertaylor

Devlin and Reagan / Forever Young - Audra Mae & The Forest rangers

Caught between a brother and a father figure role, Devlin is navigating the waters now that Reagan is back in the city. On one side, he cares so deeply for her, having always considered her part of his family as a younger sister, on another he is doing his best to accept that she has grown up and become a strong, independent woman. Its not easy to let go of the image and perception he has of her, he isn’t likely to stop treating her like an older brother would, but he is still finding that balance between older sibling and leader, knowing she wants to be a part of the Strix. Dev has, though well concealed a lot of guilt over leaving Reagan to fend for herself for a lot of years while he and Nik were in London, building the Strix after Devlin took over, and he’s unlikely to let go of that anytime soon. He’ll do anything to make sure she can start anew in London and get the life she always wanted, and deserved. @reagan-donahue

Devlin and Nate / I won’t let go - Rascal Flatts

Some might consider Nathaniel the youngest of the Taylor clan, though his last name is still his mothers. To Devlin, Nate is like a son, but also a brother. From the second the little boy was dropped off at the Taylor’s doorstep, Devlin has cared for and looked after Nate. He’ll always be a bit overbearing and protective, when he’s not in trainer mode, teaching his cousin a trick or two. Should anyone be stupid enough to try and harm Nate, they’ll experience hell on earth, as Devlin would move mountains to protect him, but also anyone he considers family. Nothing and no one i allowed to touch them. @ofstrixbastard

Devlin and Grace / Take me there - Rascal Flatts 

Devlin doesn’t quite know what it is, but ever since he recruited Grace, he has had a great fondness for her. Whenever they speak he is at ease, increasingly curious to hear her take on situations or her opinions. He’s boiled it down to how different her story and nature is from everyone else in the gang, how sweet and soft she is in her appearance, how he knows she is still very grateful that he brought her aboard, or how she doesn’t have a great disposition for violence. In many ways Devlin looks at Grace and sees the daughter he’s never had, and he wants nothing more than for her to thrive in her role, to grow and experience the world, yet be safe and well protected. @thievingxgrace

✗ Bloody London Character Task ; 001 - Three of a Kind ✗

Ethan Chandler ● Penny Dreadful:

“We've all done things to survive. There are such sins at my back it would kill me to turn around.”

Ethan Chandler is a charming, suave man that is haunted and trapped by his dark past. Although sometimes he can appear careless and quiet he is anything but. Exhibiting signs of thoughtful actions and amoral outcomes. But behind Ethan's bright eyes lurk dark secrets. He is running from something, and his troubling past threatens to overtake him at every turn. At the loss of his beautiful companion, Brona, he loses control and becomes more susceptible to the destructive behavior of drugs and alcohol.

Mr. Blonde ● Reservoir Dogs:

“Listen kid, I'm not gonna bullshit you, all right? I don't give a good fuck what you know, or don't know, but I'm gonna torture you anyway, regardless. Not to get information. But because it's amusing to me.”

Mr. Blonde is very simply put; a psychopath. In a slightly more difficult explanation; he is a suit wearing young man who enjoys the mental game of torture, manipulation and killing people. He displays almost no compassion and has an extremely casual attitude to the idea of death. He is a smooth-talking psychopath who remains calm rather than displaying anger, however this makes him only more dangerous. Remaining loyal to the very few who have deemed him worthy, he would die for the few people he subsequently lives for.

Clay Burton ● Banshee:

“I don’t trust you.”

~Bloody London Character Task 001: Three of a Kind~

1) Yennefer of Vengerberg-  The Witchers

“The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.”

Like Yennefer, who both as a person and a character refuses to conform to stereotypes, Roxanne takes pleasure in often reversing gender roles and smashing conceptions of any skill or job being a gender-specific area. Famed for her penetrating gaze and sparking with wisdom and imperiousness, like Yen, everything about Rox was ravishing and menacing at the same time, a knife decorated with soft fur or soft fur hidden beneath layers of steel- it all depended on the intellect and intuitiveness of the individual who dared to approach her with a determination to get to her,beneath the charming facades she is expert in exhibiting.

2) Elizabeth Bennet- Pride and Prejudice

“There is a stubbornness about me that can never bear to be frightened at the will of others. My courage always rises at ever attempt to intimidate me”

A mix of energy and intelligence, gaiety and resilience is perhaps what makes Elizabeth Bennet termed as delightful a creature as ever appeared in print and our own lady attorney, a paradoxical force to be reckoned with. Like Eliza, Roxanne is spirited, teasing and possesses a self-assurance that comes from her keen mind and sharp observations. Her confidence in her own discernment, at times a combination of both pride and prejudice, is what leads her into her worst errors and best judgements.  

3) Pamela Swynford De Beaufort  - True Blood

"Let these good people practice their constitutional right to be fucking idiots.I don't know what it is about me that makes people think I want to hear their problems. Maybe I smile too much. Maybe I wear too much pink. But please remember I can rip your throat out if I need to”

Three of a kind / Character task 01 / Luna Morales

Raven Reyes / The 100

“We all have battle scars Finn, suck it up and build a brace for yours.”

“What do you need a pressure regulator for?” Raven: “Regulating pressure.”

“People thinks that I can just change and my pain will go away. But I can’t! And I can’t do this!”

“There’s nothing like a little pain, to remind you you’re alive.”

Fierce, determined, short tempered, mechanic. These are just some of the personality traits that Luna and Raven share. They are both fighters, who have experienced grief and pain, side by side, and they have an intense passion and genius for their craft. Much like Raven, Luna is a mechanic by heart, not too fond of coming off as vulnerable, and will rather yell than cry.

Maia / From Dusk Till Dawn

“I’m the one who kills the queen.”

“Nobody messes with my man.”

“After this, I am going to make you my queen.” “You know you’re not the first king to offer me that? Besides, I was never one for crowns.”

Maia is a character that very much inspired Luna’s backstory. She is a sultry, sexy and badass biker who is her own woman, and is not afraid to say so. She loves fiercely, and is loyal to a tee. She also does not flinch from harsh realities or back down. 

Bobbi Morse / Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D

“This is the job, we have to make certain sacrifices. Like free time.”

“Got to get you a gun one of these days.”

If I ever apologize or beg for mercy while you torture me, know that I don’t mean a word of it… not a word. I made a hard call. I’d make the same one again right now.

“If anyone can handle him, its Bobbi.”

Three of a kind / Task 1 / Devlin Taylor 

Jax Teller / Sons Of Anarchy

“There’s an old saying, ‘That what doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger’ I don’t believe that. I think the things that try to kill you make you angry and sad. Strength comes from the good things - your family, your friends, the satisfaction of hard work. Those are the things that’ll keep you whole. Those are the things to hold on to when you’re broken.”

“Your loyalty and faith in me over the last few weeks, I can’t express my gratitude.”

“I’m an okay mechanic with a GED. The only thing I do well is outlaw.”

Devlin and Jax share a lot of traits, and a lot of background. They are both men who are weighed down by responsibility, and trying to carry this as best they can. They are brutal and at times merciless, but incredibly loyal and with a good heart beneath the faquade. Being and outlaw is all they know, all they have ever been, and probably who they always will be. They both believe in protecting and caring for their family, close, extended, blood or not blood. And lastly, both men have a love of motorcycles and mechanics.

Bryan Mills / Taken

“I don’t know who you are. I don’t know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don’t have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.”

“I believe you. But that won’t save you.”

“That is what happens when you sit behind a desk. You forget things, like the weight in the hand of a gun that’s loaded and one that’s not.”

Devlin is not a father, but he is someone who will go to the ends of the earth for the people he loves. Much like Bryan he can be ruthless and hard, and if you do make an enemy of him, be prepared to face a shit storm with a bloody end, your end that is. He is fully dedicated to his job, and dislikes being placed behind a desk. He’ll choose the field and bloody action any day over sitting still. Neither is helpless in crisis, and will always choose action as opposed to idleness.

Marcel Gerrard / The Originals

“One survivor to another, all I want to do is keep you alive, I swear.”

“Loyalty. You can’t buy it. You can’t own it. You can’t force it. It comes only out of love and respect for the people who believe in you.”

“Wise man said 'if you know yourself and you know your enemy, then you don’t need to fear the outcome of battle.’ I know myself and I know my enemy. I know his strengths, I know his pride, and I know his house. Every nook and cranny.”

Bloody London Task 004 - Sorting Hat

Bloody London Task 003 - Theme Song

the man comes around - Johnny Cash

There’s a man going round taking names And he decides who to keep and who to blame Everybody won’t be treated all the same There’ll be a golden ladder reaching down

When the man comes around

The hairs on your arms will stand up In the terror in each sip and in each sup Will you partake of that last offered cup Or disappear into the potter’s yard

When the man comes around

This sums up Noah’s standing in both the Royals and in society as a whole. He’s the man that comes around, the enforcer for Charlotte, he continues the legacy left by his father. He takes the names of people who wrong Charlotte and those close to her and he decides who lives and who dies accordingly, as the muscle behind the throne he has different ideals than assassins because he thinks about Charlotte first and then the Royal empire.

His size, frame and his imposing reputation cause people to fear him as hes almost bear like, and is able to beat most people into submission, as well as his history as a champion bare knuckle boxer. While the offered cup is Noah’s drinking with his enemies to incite fear (for an example see Mirabelle), those who refuse end up dead quicker.
