#HATED woodes rodgers a lot. fuck that man

[girlscience]

just finished black sails and I am wildly confused. I could have sworn I absolutely saw a gif of Flint and Silver kissing on tumblr before I ever watched this show. It wasn't why I watched the show, but I literally have spent 40 hours expecting to see it.... and they don't kiss. WHAT DID I SEE????? WHAT WAS THAT GIF OF???? because there wasn't even a scene that looked like that gif??? IM SO CONFUSED

The ending of Gideon the Ninth destroyed me so here’s what I think the Canaan House crew’s favorite musicals would be

Judith: Resident musical theater disliker of Canaan House. Would probably not hate something like Come From Away if you dragged her but is opposed to musicals on principle.

Marta: We don’t know much about her but I think she’d like Wicked!

(EDIT: Now that I’ve read As Yet Unsent, I’m gonna switch my answer for Marta and say Chicago! Idk why it’s just vibes)

Coronabeth: West Side Story! Tragic, romantic, gorgeous score, and she likes puns so she’d love Sondheim.

Ianthe: Cats. @wegottagetouttahere

Naberius: Hamilton guy for sure. Thinks most other musicals are super pretentious.

Isaac and Jeannemary: I’m putting them together because they bonded over Rent. Isaac gives off big theater kid energy to me, and Jeannemary likes rock for sure. They sing Take Me or Leave Me together.

Abigail: Would love a classic like Camelot. Wouldn’t judge the teens in a million years, but she doesn’t really get modern musicals.

Magnus: Fiddler on the Roof! He’s the most likely of the crew to really love musicals imo. Sings to the teens to embarrass them.

Palamedes: Pirates of Penzance. That is a man who loves a good patter song.

Camilla: Would probably just say Pirates of Penzance too, because it’s Pal’s favorite and she doesn’t really get musicals. Would probably like Hamilton a lot but she’d be chill about it.

Dulcinea: Like Marta, we don’t know much about her but I think she’d like Hadestown!

(EDIT: I just came back from seeing Moulin Rouge on tour, and now that I’ve read Harrow I can confidently say that Dulcie would go fucking crazy for that show.)

Protesilaus: Loves Les Mis and has the best voice at Canaan House. You can pry this one out of my cold dead hands

Silas: Lloyd Weber enjoyer. Thinks the eighties were the peak of musical theater and refuses to listen to anything made afterwards.

Colum: Into The Woods I think! Silas has heard him do Agony one too many times. He’s surprisingly good!

Gideon: Newsies fan. Santa Fe makes her feel feelings. (Newsies fandom I’m giving you my best girl because you guys are SO nice)

Harrow: Would dislike theater on principle, Judith-style, but might like something like Hadestown as well if you made her go. Eventually she gets into Malloysicals

Bonus Cytherea: Sweeney Todd if we’re being thematic, but really she’d be a Rodgers and Hammerstein girlie

Bonus-bonus Teacher: You just know if he was real he’d be an opera buff.
