I never thought of this but... But I'm going to suggest, if you hadn't tried The Music Box and Firth of Fifth by Genesis, please take a look. (you appreciate Romantic period music and so on like myself, so I wonder if you'd like them as I do!)
They're both really cool, thank you! I really love the piano intro of firth of fifth. I haven't listened to much genesis before so it's good to have recommendations. I also like that firth of fifth is a pun on firth of forth, which is very dear to my heart

God. I know my memory has alternated good and bad over the years, but movies have always been something that I really struggle to remember lol. Which is also why I don't watch that many of them (unless with someone). I actually had to search "I liked that movie" in Discord to remember some of these ~~which is also why I comment at the end so I can check later haha~~ Anyway, I'm doing 6 because even 6 was a stretch, ngl.
1. Le Grande Bleu
2. House of Angelo
3. The Wicker Man
4. Death in Venice
5. Der Himmel ĂĽber Berlin
6. Master and Commander
Thanks for the tag! If you're seeing this, pls do it too hehe
blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most): sherlock holmes for both SH and AA, but also phoenix wright for AA
scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped): Ryuu for AA I would LOVE to hug him. also I feel a little protective over him. I would say holmes for SH but he's like some old guy, so maybe toby the dog?? or watson
scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave): john clay for SH!! seriously this man gets so little attention even though he's supposed to be the fourth smartest man in london according to holmes? gumshoe and gregson for AA, give these detectives some love
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week): tbh both the violets in SH. Hosonaga for AA because he's hot and stupid
poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave): gregson and lestrade for SH maybe? I would say they're a bit pathetic?? I can't think of anyone for AA except van zieks, he's not unpopular but he's racist
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason): miles edgeworth and sherlock holmes for AA, because it would be funny. also sherlock holmes for SH but only when he pisses watson off
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell): spoiler? but manfred von karma, damon gant, and mael stronghart, and dahlia hawthorne for AA for obvious reasons. I don't think I'd send any SH characters to superhell

Raffles (either TV or book is ok) and Callan for fandom asks (sorry I sent 2 lol)
Thank you!
Raffles (going with tv because I still haven’t finished the books lol):
blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most): Raffles or Bunny. I can’t choose just one of them
scrunkly (my "baby", character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped): Bunny of course
scrimblo bimbo (underrated/underappreciated fave): Maud, she was very sweet
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won't shut up about it for a week): the manager of the Albany lmao
poor little meow meow ("problematic"/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave): raffles
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason): Mackenzie
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell): Tremaine and carruthers lol oh and rosenthall
Callan:
blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most): toby meres <3 callan is a close second
scrunkly (my "baby", character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped): probably callan? Though I wouldn’t describe him as cute I just feel protective over him
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won't shut up about it for a week): I really liked Latour :(
poor little meow meow ("problematic"/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave): callan and meres are both my poor little meow meows. Callan is more pathetic, Meres is considered “problematic”/controversial by some fans I guess
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason): s3 Cross (not s4, I feel sorry for him then). Also Bishop because I think it would be funny
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell): s1/2 meres aldksjdj but I think he’d enjoy it and I’d bring him back after 10 mins
What's your favourite series from Star Trek franchise (:p I know it's such an abrupt question lol)
Hmmmmm....
For all its flaws (mostly its age and a certain actor), I am very fond of TOS. Spock is one of my favourite characters, period, so that makes a huge difference.
I have plans to rewatch DS9, though - I remember some very key characterisation bits, but very little in terms of its plots, and I think I need to give it another go to properly reevaluate it.
Other than that, it's honestly probably Discovery.
@hadescavedish asked: Maybe uh mermaid or "today's special torture" (maybe that's not what it means but)
for the WIP tag game (sorry it took me a bit!)
MermaidAvon is one of the very few absolute, total AUs I’ve planned out - not even remotely canon divergent, just full on Alternate Universe, and basically an A/V that’s exactly what it sounds like. It’s a low priority WIP at the moment, but one I really loved setting up and definitely hope to finish eventually.
“Today’s Special Torture” is another Whumptober one that I interpreted a little more loosely, so I’m not sure what you were imagining, but probably not the actual premise, which is that Avon has a literal sixth sense for interfacing with AI. There isn’t a whole lot to this one yet, so I can’t really share a snippet, but have some mermaid!Avon below.
Vila pulled the last of the net off and avoided the dark fin beating heavily onto the deck. “I’m Vila Restal. What’s your name?”
The merperson was carefully examining their hand – the net had cut into the wrist, but hadn’t broken skin. “Next, doubtless, you will ask whether I’m male or female,” they said, and Vila’s breath caught.
Few humans sounded so caustic and bitter, and it hardly fit with the joyous merpeople he remembered.
“Hey, now, I’m not out to hurt you. What were you doing near my net, anyway?”
The merperson shrugged. They had sounded male, but Vila didn’t dare judge by human standards, and he could hardly ask now.
“Freeing the fish, of course.” They bared their teeth. “These are my hunting grounds.” They gave up on their wrist, propping themselves up on the deck. The dark fin beat again, but it couldn’t move them. “And since you humans are so desperate for gendered pronouns, I prefer he. Now, if you would be so kind…”
Vila nearly obeyed before he had a chance to examine what he had heard. When his mind caught up, he stopped. “Hang on!”
The merman rolled his eyes. “Here we go.”
“You were sabotaging my catches?!”
“My hunting grounds.”
“I need to eat!”
“Then move.”
“Where is your pack?”
“My pack?” His mouth shifted into a sneer, showing off sharp teeth. “I don’t know why I’m surprised. Human, after all.”
“Your family, then,” Vila probed.
The merman tensed, his shoulders stiffening. “I’m done answering questions. Either set me free now or make your intentions clear.”
“Right. Sorry.” Vila took hold of the merman’s arm and hoisted him up onto the railing of his boat, where the merman immediately jerked free, eyes on the sea.
“I can’t move on, you know,” Vila told him and found a baleful glare directed back at him.
“Can’t or won’t?”
“Can’t. I don’t take more than will balance out, I promise. You and everyone else will be fine even with me here. I mean you no harm.”
The merman eyed Vila’s catch, fish struggling on the wet deck. Their breathing was nowhere near as adaptable. “I’ll be the judge of that,” the merman said and with a sharp flick of his fin launched himself back into the water. It wasn’t a smooth dive, but Vila could see him turn under the surface, then he dived through under Vila’s boat and Vila lost sight of him.
