i fear the target audience for this may literally just be me but this realization hit me like a fucking truck the other day and i could not stop thinking about it

[and-i-forgive-you-father]

Sometimes I wonder if I’m overanalysing bare but then I listen to Epiphany and start thinking about the foreshadowing and then I think I’m not overanalysing this show enough

I mean, I don’t agree with you op. But had to reblog because I agree with Michael Arden.

love this. rip to you Michael but i'm different. i cast the blame and i do so joyfully! i hope matt and the priest died right after the end of the show <3

bare a pop opera is so fucking good

To pitch in on the "Jason/Peter is a bad boyfriend debate"... neither is, but

What they both are is suicidal teenagers, who need things so opposed to each other they can't help the other because it would simply be deciding they're going to be the one who dies. And they don't know the other is also suicidal, so all they see is themselves reaching for a way to keep going and the other stopping them from getting there

You slew all my giants, ignoring your own. And now that they haunt you, I'm left with my courage alone.

"you know we're still cool, right?" 😭😭😭😭

sometimes i’ll be chilling and then boom i remember “father, we were so in love/and that’s what I find so odd/our love was pure/and nothing else brought me closer to God” and just need to go sit down for a minute

rest in peace Jason McConnell, you would’ve loved The Black Parade (Deluxe Edition)

i’m watching the 2004 off broadway bare and peter… opens the coffin in epiphany??? does he see jason in there??? does he have some vague memory of seeing jason dead that haunts him through the rest of the show??? i have so many questions this version is fascinating

[and-i-forgive-you-father]

The way Jason auditions with the monologue that says "I have night's cloak to hide me from their eyes/ and but thou love me, let them find me here/ my life were better ended by their hate"

Still not over Bare after 5 fucking years apparently

in an attempt to revive a pretty dead fandom LOOK!!! I HAVE BARE: A POP OPERA FANART!!!!

[and-i-forgive-you-father]

thinking about how every character in bare has their own motif except for matt. thinking about how he almost got a motif during auditions and then jason sang it instead. thinking about how he brings the auditions motif back during promise as he thinks he’s finally taking control. thinking about how he slowly realizes what he’s done and the auditions motif never appears again.

thinking about how the only true solo motif matt has is jason’s eulogy.

it’s been years since i’ve even thought about bare: a pop opera but i relistened to the soundtrack recently and genuinely all of us that could relate to Role of a Lifetime and See Me deserve financial compensation

Me: Bare is a masterclass on skillful lyric crafting. Every lyric is made with clear intent and forwards the plot in some way while also relating back to the themes of the show

Bare: rhymes alone with alone. Three times. In a row.
