Y’all this tag just kills me…
I just saw someone that looked an awful lot like Lockwood on the bus and now I'm in shambles because he reminded me that Lockwood and Co was cancelled, I CAN'T LIVE LIKE THIS
CAMERON CHAPMAN as ANTHONY LOCKWOOD and RUBY STOKES as LUCY CARLYLE Lockwood & Co. 1.07: Mesmerised
the god tier trio dynamic
I think the best part about Lucy Carlyle is her flaws. Unlike most female characters written by men, her insecurities do not resolve themselves when she succeeds in life, if anything they amplify.
She’s ambitious and passionate and selfish and thoughtless, her vices aren’t ‘female’ in the sense that all of them lead back to beauty or weakness. She’s irrational and angry and rebellious, masculine traits that rarely are accepted in female protagonists.
And these things are never viewed through a romantic or sexual lense, Lockwood doesn’t tame her or fix all her problems, he accepts them as part of her. Jonathan Stroud is a genius when it comes to teenagers, but I think we sometimes forget that teenagers are not dramatic because of hormones, but because they feel incredibly deeply.
Lockwood was such a magnificent character because a lot of male characters sort of revolve an angelic female love interest, and that’s their main motivation.
Nah.
His motivation was his dead family and his haunted house and his survivors guilt and his deep loyalty to the past and how things once were. He loved Lucy fiercely, and she definitely factored into his motivations, but she was no saint and he never made her one.
”you gave her a free pass just because you like the way she looks at you!“
excuse me george i love you but have you seen the way HE looks at HER??

ROUND 2 MATCH 5: LOCKLYLE VS. LAYCLAIRE
Locklyle Propaganda:
"Lockwood is a homeowner at age 15 and he wanders around it drinking tea and charming people into giving him yhings. Lucy carlyle is a hotheaded aggressive and EXTREMELY powerful agent in his ghost hunting company. They both get shit done but in OPPOSITE ways. They have an interes5ing way of rejecting traditional gendered tropes- the sensitive dude and the bullheaded girl- that is both simple and INTENSELY complicated within their narrative, which i think qualifies them for the title."
"she is the protagonist of the series, a once in a generation prodigy, the most powerful listener since Marissa Fittes, the list goes on. He likes to drink pulpy orange juice and strain it throught his teeth to pretend to be a blue whale"
"Imagine a buff kind of irritated teenage girl with a sword. No, shes even cooler. That's better. Now imagine a rich preppy guy. No, thats too much like Patrick Bateman. Think Artemis Fowl. Ok youtr there. Hope yhis helps :)"
"they are PERFECT for each other. she recognises the subtleties in his smiles and he allows himself to be vulnerable in front of her"
Layclaire Propaganda:
"THEY ARE SO- Ok first off their relationship is the first time in the series where we see Hershel in a state of emotional vulnerability. Usually he's cool and smart but in the scenes where he's with Claire he's just a blushing bashful mess oh mygoodness he's so precious. Claire in comparison is more outgoing and confident and it makes for a really cute dynamic. Also she's a phycisist who helped make a time machine what's more girlbossy than that. Anyway she deserved better. Layclaire deserved better. We need more Layclaire fluff in the world."
Was reading Lockwood and Co and thought of this:
