#Be More Chill Revival

[levemetal]

Ye old Shen twins au where they both become peak lords EXCEPT. Instead of making them twin peak lords or something, we pretend the evidence that the beast peak does likely not exist is lies, and Shen Yuan gets to become peak lord of the beast peak. Why? Because he would LOVE IT there. It's his territory. He gets to be unapologetically nerdy about beasts 24/7 and make it everyone's problem.

As he should.

And bonus! He can snatch LBH at the disciple hole digging. Plot solved! (Assuming the system wouldn't you know. Pull system stuff and force LBH to end up on Qing Jing or some shit.)

And everyone lived happily ever after or some bullshit idk. I reread the 79 extras as well as the TLJ & ZZL ones let me have fluffy AU thoughts goddamnit, my heart has been irreparably damaged-

When Toxic Sonamy shippers say Elise "stole" Sonic from Amy and she should've beaten Elise up for stealing her man, or Amy should've kissed Sonic instead

Songs that I think go with BATIM characters but I can’t exactly articulate why (musical edition.. part… 1)

(Keep in mind dctl Sammy and Sammy x Susie has my heart)

The songs are linked <3

Kiss Me(Sweeney Todd): something about how fast Johanna talks and how she keeps rambling about stuff only she can hear rlly says “Sammy” to me don’t u think

Dirty Girl (Nerdy Prudes Must Die): pls don’t crucify me. The religious theming of Grace Chastity and the “sin” of Max Jagerman and the and the and the— it’s either like, Susie trying not to have a crush on her boss, OR Sammy being alarmed about his own feelings bc of religious upbringing (I’ve always hc that he had a religious background)

What I Know Now (Beetlejuice): it’s giving Susie its giving telling ppl not to enter the machine despite imperfection it’s giving insecurity when she was alive it’s giving its giving-

Barbara 2.0 (also Beetlejuice): idk why but I love the idea of this being Allison and Tom in the Ink machine after realizing they have to deal with the situation

The Summoning (Nerdy Prudes Must Die): it just makes sense it just does and it takes too many words to explain the obvious

I Love Play Rehearsal (Be More Chill) : Susie before Joey happened

The Pitiful Children (Be More Chill): sounds like a cult song tbh and it’s giving the lost ones

Ready for This (Hazbin Hotel. Yes it counts.): another song where it just reminds me of rounding up the lost ones to go wreck Wilson’s shi-

Cool as I Think I Am (Nerdy Prudes Must Die): once again I’m gonna associate this with Samsie because TO BEHONEST… the situation of like.. one of them has to kill the other to satisfy the demons demands… yes, yes I like, it fit

Ok that’s all for now <3 gimme some suggestions for the next one

[superectojazzmage]

To those concerned about the Hellfire Gala and worrying it’s gonna be YET ANOTHER mutant genocide… remember something important.

It’s already been established that the next major arc of the Krakoan Age after Fall of X is going to be titled Rise of X.

Rise.

Like a phoenix from the ashes.

IM GETTING MORE OF MY FRIENDS INTO BE MORE CHILL LETS GOOOOOOOOOO

time to make a google doc on everything they need to know abt it

[emdotcom]

For years, I've been trying to put into words Why I give a single iota about Bendy & the Ink Machine, but it's such a tangled mess that no thread can be seperated -- they're all interwoven in a way that makes it hard to pick them out. The game, overall, makes me miserable, because I can see that there was love put into it, but a lot of it is thrown to the wayside in favor of a story that I think was retroactively improved by the sequel's recontextualizing of it, but is ultimately not worth the price of admission & majorly drops the ball.

It's easy to list things I don't like about it -- the gameplay is sparse, the combat is uninteresting, none of the chapters feel connected, the bugs that assault all my playthroughs & kill my saves are consistent & fill me with dread every time I open the game, the lack of thought in the contents of a chapter (chapter 3's wheel ""puzzle"" & the animatronic Bendy from chapter 4, in specifc, really grind my gears), which speaks to the amateurish & rushed way that the game was crafted -- there's a lot to hate, & it's easy to hate it. But I don't. Despite all that, I am compelled by this game, by what it's trying & failing & trying again to say.

It's really easy to understand why you dislike something. I couldn't have told you much about what I did like, in Ink Machine.

& then, I played Dark Revival. I didn't realize I liked the story of Ink Machine, until I played Dark Revival. It's a better made game, it's just not fucking interesting, to me, because it doesn't have a story worth tuning in to.

I’ve been curious about everyone’s favorite bmc songs.

So! Rant to me about your favorite bmc song >:)

ANON YOU HAVE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE AND ALSO NOT BECAUSE I HAVE MULTIPLE AND I CANNOT MAKE DECISIONS FOR THE LIFE OF ME

first up is ALWAYS gtikbi idc it's a FUN SONG it's bouncy and happy it’s cringe it’s campy it’s the basic romance song for the female lead and i love it and i love christine and i love stephanie hsu she sounds amazing and the jake twist at the end the first time i heard it I was like 😦

i’m going off of the music but if we talk about the visuals then the HEARTS the cardboard hearts are so fun they’re so high school theater esque and the rest of the cast popping in and dancing and singing the way they randomly stick their head in kinda makes me feel like they were eavesdropping or something tbh and the way the squip was so sure of himself in bway he was literally smiling and conducting them hello

a strong STRONG contender is mts we’re introduced to everybody and it gives a good look into everyone’s character and a good look into JEREMY specifically and how he interacts with everyone and how life is for him and for everyone there’s michaels little solo which is a BOP every time everyone sounds so good and there are a bunch of underlaying motifs/melodies from other coming songs which is so cool for example smartphone hour when they’re talking about madeline and mitb + pants song during michael and jeremy’s convo

and VISUALS the bus effect and the classroom choreo is so funny every time and all their little mannerisms and the way they interact with each other throughout show their personality there are SO MANY DETAILS i think i lowkey learned the end bit of the bway choreo from watching it so much

i can go on about more songs but i think these are top two anyways thank you for the ask anon!! i bet a lot of people had a lot of fun answering them

I think that Tumblr is the only website where musical theater fandom is actually alive
