Hey, whats your story? I’m curious how ya became Lin-Manuel Miranda’s fan 😄
STORY TIME!
ok anon, so the thing is, i've heard about this guy before, i've been familiar with some of his stuff, but i was never really interested (shame on me. I KNOW).
it changed a little bit when i heard about encanto (2021) for the first time and actually fell in love with the soundtrack before i even saw the movie. i remember i even learned how to play "we don't talk about bruno" on ukulele lol. the soundtrack was actually the reason i decided to watch it (and i knew nothing about the plot, this was the first time something like this happened to me). i totally loved it of course and i was truly obsessed for a while (i just wasn't loud about it). not even with the movie but with the songs. and of course i knew who wrote them.
so i've been planning to watch hamilton for a very long time and this thought just came back to me this year when my bestie started fixating on the little mermaid (2023) and she was actually the one who told me lin is writing some songs for the soundtrack. we were both so hyped. i remember i didn't know that much about him back then but i slowly started falling in love with his music and after seeing the little mermaid i was just like OK IT'S TIME FOR HAMILTON NOW. first i listened to some songs and i loved them so much i eventually decided to watch the play, so i did that and... oh boy, i knew i was fucked.
honestly, anon, i don't know if anyone even knows about this but the night i saw hamilton for the first time was also the worst night of my life (some personal shit happened) and after that i decided to focus my whole energy on this new fixation which helped me get through the hardest period of my life. and it's not only hamilton, it's mr miranda himself. i literally fell in love with his beautiful mind, i think i will never get tired of his music, both hamilton and in the heights are my comfort soundtracks now. i could talk about him for hours. i could also watch him talk for hours. so i know i am very loud about my love for him but i don't think that's ever going to change and i'm not even sorry. he is the love of my life.

What is the Fresh Mikey au lore? 👀
KHFGJDSGFJSD yes an opportunity to talk about my guy.... I'm gonna be so real with you, the backstory to Party Host/Fresh Mikey is not at all solid gffdshfd I technically have an in-universe explanation for that (just to avoid needing to worry about it but), which is that 'Mikey' doesn't exactly remember what happened...
All you have to worry about is that a Kraang (or Kraang. stuff. idk what to call it.) kind of. possessed Mikey. but it's more complicated than what happened to Raph in the movie.
Something something Mikey's magic something the Kraang and Mikey's consciousnesses merged or something and now they're like. one thing. and not in the Kraang hive mind.
With the Kraang in there, the limits Mikey's body has for his magic is much higher, and he's able to do a lot more with it than he would've otherwise. The closest comparison to other characters I can think of for you guys to see what I'm getting at is Eddie and Venom, and Fresh Sans (obviously, he's the main inspo).
SO, using his magic and ability to travel through time and space, he goes to other universes/dimensions/timelines. He's not sure why exactly, but he has this instinct to get stronger. To be able to stand above everything else. And he has a very,,, interesting way of accomplishing that. (cough killing and eating other Kraang cough)

universal hand signal for help: tuck thumb in, trap it with your fingers, and repeat.
(graphic by the Women's Funding Network)
because I didn't know this was a thing until randomly seeing a poster in a bathroom, I'm sharing this graphic here so more people can know what to look out for (and what to use if you're ever in danger and can't draw attention to yourself)

Joel getting to Jackson and going from job to job, exhausting himself deeply. Extra time means more time to think, and the more he thinks the more his deep buried grief resurfaces, because this life is too much like what it had been before. Tommy thinks it's just Joel being Joel, he was like this before the outbreak too, but it's Maria who notices that Joels running from something, and casually tries inviting him over to help with the baby, she casually tries to talk about her own process with grief, and it gets to Joel who shakes his head, and she tries to get to him. Telling him that he has to feel it, he has to let it out... which results in Joel silently shaking with the baby in his arms.

Listen I know
I know it's just a form she takes to fool people or whatever and she's actually an old decrepid witch from Slavic Folklore. And she would kill and eat my body
But I mean that's my type

i feel like this is something people probably already figured out but im 100% convinced sr pelo based john and jack off the cop dudes from child's play (1988) considering we already have the very obvious chucky parody - i havent seen anyone bring it up though and i just wanna ramble bc i find it interesting lol
i mean, the guy on the right's name is literally john and looks like him. thh eguy on the left is named mike but he still looks like jack. idk i just kinda thought it was cool to think abt lol
as i said i feel like this is probably something a bunch of people probably already noticed and/or im WAY behind (i havent been into spooky month for like a couple years or so) but. idk!!!
