seamus | he/him | 21 | AO3: hopeless_eccentric | | ask me stuff about detectives

intro post:

hi all! i thought since ive been gaining some followers with my disco elysium metas, i'd make a proper introductory post:

seamus - (he/him) - 21 . big fan of reading literature and teaching about it. please ask me about my thesis on the queer hard-boiled detective revival literature of the AIDS crisis

interests:

  • detectives of all shapes and sizes (my area of study is the hard-boiled era but i also have a huge soft spot for anything based off of it, i.e., the dave brandstetter books)
  • pop culture (especially pulp fiction) of early-mid 1900s america
  • literary theory, criticism, analysis, and academia
  • disco elysium lately
  • muppets, occasionally!
  • a bit of fallout--i've only played 1 and 2 because my computer cant handle that much

tags:

seamus rambles: personal posts, unrelated to an interest or topic. usually about school work, teacher work, etc

seamus writes: usually either literary analysis or reference to original work. i havent written fic in a few years, but this world is full of possibility! my latest work was sins of the father, a radio play script deconstructing hard-boiled detective tropes

detective fiction: where i post all things detectives baby! usually related to analysis/theory & criticism

PLEASE feel free to send me a message or an ask about

  • my original fiction
  • the dave brandstetter or henry rios books (PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASE-)
  • detectives of any kind (including and especially disco elysium)
  • saying hi!

idk why but i feel like being a punk is for he/hims and doing ballet is for she/hers
