Illya buys books as gifts. 🥰 He's also being both smiley and green eyed snarky. There are some cute looks between him & Napoleon anyway. 😆😂

No-one is going to stop Napoleon rescuing Illya today!

Illya is not able to help though. He's zonked & can barely speak or understand anything. Poor Illya. Lots of manhandling & hand holding required.

Optical illusion of a woman bent over some papers. Her sunglasses are pushed up and she is wearing a hair band so the top of her head looks exactly like a Muppet face

Sorry I know the world is in a terrible fix but I've been laughing at this for ten minutes now

Napoleon has permission to go get Illya back. I don't think Waverley suggesting it might be too late has helped his mood.

It's not that he's about to rampage, but he is a one man force to be reckoned with & he's not even seen how rough Illya is yet! He's even in fighting gear not a suit!

Napoleon has found out who got Illya captured & is not a happy bunny. Livid might be how I'd describe him right now.

Rival baddies are messing with Illya's head for funsies & he looks very out of it. Poor Illya. They're being very mean to him.

At the moment though, Napoleon is in summer attire, which has a horrid pattern, but he has got his legs out. Rare for him to flash flesh.

Oh dear. Illya's about to have a terrible time & Napoleon is not going to be happy about it.

Napoleon is having to talk to a baddie & he doesn't seem pleased. He's being very calm, sensible & diplomatic.

Illya is stuck on his own.

Tiny Moments of Joy | Swashbuckler Press Delightful moments captured from people watching in a small city in Aotearoa New Zealand.

For the lovely British and Irish people here, if you'd like to get a copy of Tiny Moments of Joy for Mothering Sunday or Irish Mother's Day, I'd say today and tomorrow might be the last days to order to guarantee it'll arrive on time. 🪻🌸https://www.swashbucklerpress.com/tiny-moments-of-joy

Napoleon's hair is a bit floppy at the front again. It's intermittent, but seems to happen when he's been around Illya. 😊

🧵Spotted at a Small City Fringe* Festival in Aotearoa New Zealand:

A man (30s?) is a picture of pure pride and joy on watching his very pregnant wife perform in a theatrical song and dance show.
Surrounded by friends, grinning whenever she takes the stage. This is love. (1)

Illya's shirt isn't buttoned up to the top, in contrast to Napoleon all neatly suited. They've been a bit chased already.

Hmmm - now Illya's hat is more of a shiny flatcap. 🤔

And a bedtime episode of Man From UNCLE...for my mental health. S4 again. Illya's wearing a delightful beret & is picking Napoleon up at the port in Lisbon.

Fell asleep for a bit, so going to make myself a bedtime drink & get ready to snooze properly.

That clip of Timothee Chalamet being like “no one watches the opera or ballet” is wild and I am dying over every ballet and opera acct (correctly) being like “we’ve been here for hundreds of years before you and we’ll be here for hundreds of years after you” lmao

Miss Fisher is wonderful! 🥰

Now to solve this murder!

FAN DANCE! 😆😆

Almost time for the fan dance! 😆🥰

The painting "Night in the Steppe" shows a vast plain under a bright full moon, the light being distributed over the landscape and the water in an almost magical way.

This work is made by the renowned Ukrainian artist Ivan Marchuk, who invented the unique painting style called "plyontanism" (from the Ukrainian word plyontaty, meaning "to braid"). This technique consists of hundreds of fine, intertwined lines that create depth and an almost textile-like texture.

Mfmm Miss Fishers Murder Mysteries GIF Alt: Gif from Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries. Phryne Fisher is in a black spanish hat and black lacy dress. She is sat on Jack's knee. They hold each other close as cover, while Phryne pretends to be a lady of negotiable affection.

This will happen later. After the fan dance. 🥰

Also - the chemistry between Jack & Phryne is marvellous. 🥰

Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...

Miss Fisher won. Starting with s2, as it required less effort from me. This ep has the fan dance. I love the fan dance! 😊🥰😆

Oooh or some Miss Fisher. Also a good looking detective that likes a cocktail! I think she might have more sex than the other detectives though. And is the best dressed, no matter how tidy Poirot likes to keep himself.

In the meantime....perhaps some Poirot. Less nudity usually, but still.

I like a mix of detectives. Too many detective shows have very similar male detectives. The women tend to be a bit more varied though.

Anyway - trying to remember why I didn't pick up more of these detective stories. 🤔

I will watch something completely not sexy when this is done if you think that will work.

Or should I watch something a little sexy first, so I don't go completely cold turkey?
