#NOT a reference just a coincidence

[melancholyheartss]

The Gaslight District was. So cool. 11/10 I love it i watched it with my mom and SHE loves it, very much excited to see more stuff about it.

It's got super cool designs and colors, and I really like the plot!!

BUT, just like everything i like for some reason, it has a very specific downside, and that downside is that I share a name with Mel from the show.

(Gonna put this rant below a cut so people can ignore it if they want.)

when I watched it, I thought "I'm gonna end up being unnecessarily annoyed by her because someone's gonna ask me if I named myself after her, ain't I?" AND I WAS RIGHT SOMEONE HAS ALREADY ASKED IF MY NAME WAS A REFERENCE TO HER WHAT.

It'd only been like 4 hours since it released when this happened people PLEASE.

Melancholy from The Gaslight District, you are going to make my life SUCH A PAIN if this keeps happening, but I also think you're super cool and I desperately WANT to like you. :((

(To make it clear I like Mel, I just don't like that I'm apparently gonna have to explain that my name isn't because of her to people now.)

When the Time Lords kept their eye on everything, you could hop between realities, home in time for tea. Then they died, took it all with them. The walls of reality closed, the worlds were sealed. Everything became that bit less kind.

Something something abt how a clown’s whole thing is to make themselves the butt of the joke and take everything thrown at them while a jester’s whole thing is to freely call out & ridicule the king however they choose something something…

The King: you two aren't a thing right? Because I can excuse homosexuality, but not with a servant (ew)

Khanin, does not think going "ooh, you care about me :)" counts as being in a relationship as much as he'd like it to: ugh, grandfather. We're just friends

Charan, currently has sealed Magdeburg hemispheres in his heart where the atmospheric pressure is duty, the vacuum is feelings, the horses are the belief he entwined his destiny with prince Khanin after kissing him once, and the grease is emotional repression: I concur Your Majesty

yayyyy fellow jazz soundwave rivalry trutherrr. soundwave is trying so hard to be mr nonchalant and jazz is all embrace the beauty of music asshole. so true jazz

IT’S A REALLY UNDEREXPLORED DYNAMIC! it’s such a shame, too. jazz specifically is a character I tend to see with a lot of his core beliefs warped in fan content— which isn’t bad, of course, it’s always fun and fine to put a new original spin on a character! but a lot of what made jazz such an interesting character to me (across most if not all continuities) was his genuine appreciation for human culture. there’s a lot of empathy in the ability to connect to a culture that’s completely alien to onself. he’s always embraced the Other, and has a deep understanding why people create things, like music and art— because everybody does! creation is a privilege of the living, and living is universal, everywhere. life is to create, life is to enjoy what others create, and it’s a form of freedom, too.

on the flipside, you have soundwave, a character I also believe is very closely tied to music by virtue of his choice of alt mode, but in a different way. not a ton of continuities focus a ton on soundwave’s relationship to earth— there’s bits here and there, but it’s clear he usually has a complicated extending sympathy towards earth and everything on it. do I think soundwave appreciates earth music? well, yes, but I don’t think he recognizes it in the same way jazz does. there’s a conflict between what he appreciates by nature and the active role he plays in the destruction of it. said destruction is something I don’t think jazz can ever forgive him for, but that’s obviously not the be-all-and-end-all of a dynamic. there’s a lot of yummy potential in jazz’s recognition of soundwave’s hypocrisy! I think jazz would find it unbelievably funny that nobody’s immune to appreciating good music and the people behind it, and soundwave would find it an eternal headache that an autobot would be able to recognize something he’s afraid to recognize himself. and of course, the banter would be excellent. i don’t think soundwave would realize absolutely nothing he can do will break jazz’s laidback attitude towards everything. serious hypercompetent person against an easygoing hypercompetent person. they’d never be true friends, but maybe they’d have a very important rivalry with some very important lulls.

I felt like drawing Pengy in a cute outfit

The predominantly blue colors were inspired by fairy penguins (aka blue penguins/little penguins), because I'd found out about them recently and thought they were adorable

Some other inspirations for the outfit (especially the nautical elements, colors, and fluffiness):

mission launch for minkowski's crew was in march 2013. ostensibly, they were put through some mission training, though the extent and effectiveness of that is kinda dubious. pagliacci takes place in 2013, exact date unspecified. but it has to be early. let's say... mid-january.

eiffel thought he had ruined the rest of his life before he'd even turned thirty. he probably spent his thirtieth birthday in jail. and then... for some number of days, weeks, maybe even a couple of months, he exists in this state of, well. of limbo. cutter gets him released from prison, and flies him out to canaveral. he doesn't speak to his family, obviously. they don't want to hear from him, and don't even know. he's still a prisoner, but no one around him knows that, either. at some point in this time frame, goddard first exposes him to decima, before hilbert even knows who he is. and he lives wherever goddard is accommodating him, and he has to go about his day-to-day life in this transitory state between a 26-year sentence he'd just started really grappling with, and the very immediate reality he's now about to be sent into deep space instead.

they give him a certain amount of freedom; it's not like he can go anywhere. he doesn't do much, anyway, is not feeling appreciative for his momentary second chance at life, given the circumstances. he blows off most of his mission training, and they're surprisingly lax about that, which in retrospect probably should have been a sign. he sits around and smokes, mostly. gets takeout food. but he goes to see movies, as much as he can. as much as he wants to punish himself, he needs to do something, or he'll go crazy, and it's not like he'll get a chance to see a movie in a long time. he was already resigning himself to maybe never going to a movie theater again.

the film adaptation of les misérables was released in december 2012. it's entirely feasible it could've been one of the movies he saw in this time period. i think the idea adds some resonance to his shared reference with minkowski in the finale, at least, in the way it pulls things full circle. intentionally or otherwise. and, incidentally, the 2012 film adaptation of les misérables, a story that notably features an ex-convict protagonist seeking redemption, was released on december 25th. call that serendipity.

something that will never fail to be amusing to me is when an mdzs college au needs the name of a professor, and then suddenly shen qingqiu is there
