I see that you are a dewis connaisseur as well, so I was wondering if you have any fic suggestions or any authors that write about Dewis that you know of? I feel like a drug addict in desperate need of a fix.

Thank you in advance☺️

Hiii Anonstie! So, I literally just went straight to my bookmarks lmao. I will admit, that I haven't read any new Dewis lately, and thats on me- I've been distracted with writing lol. BUT!!! Here's a lovely list, I truly hope I linked everything correctly. I know dr3writings put out something recently as well, that I plan to check out- I already know its good Hopefully the formatting doesnt get messed up, but I mainly hope I've provided something you haven't read as yet! <3

Aloha - The Art of Saying Hello and Goodbye by WaitingtoBloom Words: 16,210 Daniel travels to Hawaii in an attempt to shut out the world and find his bearings after a tumultuous start to the season, but Formula 1 ends up finding him anyway in the form of one Sir Lewis Hamilton.

Active Love by f1errari Words: 1,638 Daniel grins, one eye closes, he forgot how sharp the sun is at home but he looks at Lewis anyways who smiles softly and tips Daniel’s cap down just a little, Daniel scrunches his nose up in response but opens his eyes ‘well, let’s hope it goes better then last time huh’ - (aka Daniel thinks about Lewis a lot and how good they are together before the 2022 Australian gp)

wrapped in gold by Anonymous Words: 1,162 Daniel had gotten the address from the photographer he’d messaged on Instagram. She’d said it’s beautiful and Lewis trusts her judgment, he’s not all that familiar with the area in the summer anyway.

Love, In All the Hard Places to Reach by IICarpeDiemII for toastandvegemite (Restricted) Words: 15,270 Daniel’s been living on his own for almost a decade. He’s forgotten how it is to live with other people. He’s forgotten how hard it is to hide things from someone you’re sharing the same bed with.

it's not a crime to steal from a thief by Anonymous Words: 1,228 Max is still celebrating when Lewis posts the photo with the caption: You win some, you lose some. Today, I won.

one bright moment by pronoe for Gertika (Restricted) Words: 1,345

one bright moment by pronoe for Gertika (Restricted) Words: 1,345

Daniel wins the race, Lewis wins the championship, they kiss in parc fermé.

“Now that you’re back at Red Bull, will we see a mating announcement between you and Max? You two have always been so close.”

And in that moment Daniel knows, his mate at home isn't going to be thrilled with that question.

I've had the time of my life (and I owe it all to you) by Danubius

Words: 2,147 Daniel realized he shared his bathroom's wall with his negihbor after a long shift at work, when he heard the singing from the other side, and singing back seemed like a good idea.

He didn't think things would escalade so quickly from there.

let's just dance by dr3writings

Words: 1,374 “You done with your work?” he mumbles, leaning further into the solid body behind himself and feels a light exhale on his neck that makes him shiver pleasantly.

“Yep, just in time too I saw,” Daniel whispers, the song still playing on repeat in the background and his fingers have started tapping out the beat lightly against Lewis’ stomach without a conscious thought.

can't stand the heat by @toastandvegemite (Restricted)

Words: 2,839 

Lewis is most irresistible Alpha on the grid. Daniel is the most untameable Omega.

It should be a match made in heaven, but for some reason Lewis is determined to resist Daniel’s charms.

Purely for the sake of you reblogging that one post abt musicals, I'll be the one to ask:

Which musicals do you like?

SJAJSJJAGS I love you

Forgive my basic answers, I haven't had time to listen to more (planning to listen to Hadestown and The Lightning Thief, recs are welcome), but so far I've listened to/watched Hamilton, Six, Heathers (<33 need to watch the movie), Jekyll and Hyde, and Payung Fantasi

Hamilton was my first "real" musical. I watched a compilation of animatics in order lol (I was in the car with my dad when It's Quiet Uptown came on. Yeah it wasn't ideal). I went through a lengthy and strong Hamilton phase, but now I've calmed down and can appreciate the absurdity of it all. I know the real people weren't good people and I'm sure they'd all be as horrified by miku binder jefferson as I was. Favorite songs are Non Stop and Room Where It Happened btw—

After that it was Six, which I watched in a hotel room on vacation. And then I realised that I'd seen Ex-Wives performed on America's/Britan's Got Talent (can't remember). It was quite the struggle trying not to disturb everyone else when I was laughing watching the K Howard roast. All the songs are great but I have a soft spot for Don't Lose Your Head

I watched half of Heathers at one point after/during my Hamilton phase and forgot about it, but then I rewatched it planning to actually focus this time. Had an absolute blast (wasn't ready for Dead Girl Walking at all though). I quote it all the time now, but no one ever understands what I'm saying. Unfortunately I was quietly singing Dead Gay Son not knowing my religion teacher was passing by. I don't know if they heard it or not. Dead Gay Son and Meant To Be Yours are my favorite btw can't believe the latter got tiktok-ized.

Stumbled across the Jekyll and Hyde musical accidentally and found a full performance on youtube, posted for free by the theatre production that performed it. I was in awe. Murder, Murder is my darling, but I need to stop singing it when others are around

Payung Fantasi is an Indonesian musical that was also posted for free on youtube by those who made it (The production value is through the roof). It's kind of like Hamilton if Hamilton was a musician. What I'm trying to say is that the musical based off a historical figure in Indonesia, Ismail Marzuki, who was a composer. The name of the musical, Payung Fantasi, is named after one of his songs. I'd tell you all to watch it immediately but there aren't english captions yet :(

So so sorry for the ramble I just never get asked about this lol. Have a great day <333

Can we talk about why Priyanka Chopra was invited to the Royal Box this year after her attendance two years ago in 2021? Also look at the other Sussex Squaddies in the Royal Box at Wimbledon 2023 [LONG READ] by u/Negative_Difference4

Can we talk about why Priyanka Chopra was invited to the Royal Box this year after her attendance two years ago in 2021? Also look at the other Sussex Squaddies in the Royal Box at Wimbledon 2023 [LONG READ] This year - July 2023 Wimbledon Day 13I found it interesting that PC has barely mentioned her attendance at the Royal Box via her instagram. I assume that it's because of the hate she will get from the fans. But if you look at Nick Jonas' insta he's fan girling about the invite and the opportunity to sit in the Royal Box. Interesting because Priyanka was the one who took most of the pictures. Maybe she wrote his caption too? And maybe she didn't want to post it on her account because of the hate from the sugars and megxiteers. (And yes there were negative comments)​By the reflection in his glasses, Priyanka took this photo​Priyanka took this photo tooEDIT: Here's the photo of her taking the pic... lolPC takin the photo for Nick's insta A video including Catherine giving the winner, Marketa her award was included in the post. Two years ago - July 2021 Wimbledon Day 13This was really surprising after the scarfing incident two years ago (2021). When Catherine and William attended the Royal Box attended together. Priyanka didn't clap or look at them and was instead fiddling with her scarf. This DailyMail article shows how she intentionally turned her face rather than acknowledge the royals who walked past her. And here is a Sun archive article where she ignored them afterwards.​This comes after an old video was unearthed of Priyanka wishing to date Prince William. See Reddit thread link to video. I mean who didn't want to date PW, just ask Meghan.PC's shit series called Citadel also made a crude awful joke about the then Duchess of Cambridge (Catherine). That wasn't the worst part about that show.​So why was PC allowed back into the Royal Box two years later?? Its also interesting that she wasn't seated near the Princess this time. Is it intentional?I also made this infographic of all the famous, once dedicated Sussex Squaddies. Now they are happy to sit in the Royal Box with the Wales'. I also note, that we didn't get to see POW's entrance on that day. Just a lot of cheering and clapping in the background.List of celeb Sussex squaddies:Priyanka Chopra - Meghan's long time bestie, Soho House ride or die, guest at wedding, and fancies Prince William (the fit brother)Issa Rae - comedian with dry sense of humour. Has some funny moments. Appeared on Meghan's Archetypes as 'Angry Black Woman' stereotype. From my research on her... that's not the vibe I get... its being ironic in a very meta way. She enjoys making people feel uncomfortable and watching their reaction. Maybe I didn't see what Meghan sees.Lin-Manuel Miranda - Pre-Megxit, Harry and Meghan visited the Hamilton cast in London in 2018. The show raised money for his Sentabale charity. He then goes on to sing a little note from King George III's song 'You'll Be Back'. Meghan claimed to know all the words to Hamilton and better than Lin-Manuel (archive link)(YT timestamp of comment)https://ift.tt/zN48qLW Rae in pink - Because Barbie marketing! She looks gorgeous though​ post link: https://ift.tt/f3RmA9G author: Negative_Difference4 submitted: July 16, 2023 at 07:43PM via SaintMeghanMarkle on Reddit

I have a visual to share with y'all. Say welcome to my long ass 'The Foxes + tiktok' headcanon

@ nickythefox_es (part 1???)

Basically Nicky gets tiktok but all of the foxes show up eventually and just use his profile.

• Most of the videos are with nicky and allison, also matt and dan and occasionally neil.

• Allison and nicky learn so many dances.

• Their duet of make his pockets hurt with Mariah and Zane from the vlog squad is the first one to go v i r a l.

• Yeah most of their followers know them but some and a lot of the comments are non exy fans that just watch them because they're cool

• So many of the "what is exy" "stickball game??" "dont even bother explaining to me what is the sport they play I dont care I'm just here for neil." And related comments get a liked from creator (andrew told nicky to like them)

•The "Oh my god she's coming." "I'm so afraid of her." Audio are the twinyards and nicky shows up, he had to bribe them to be a part of that one.

• They post another version but it's Kevin that enters and Allison and Nicky talking

• So many comments thirsting over them and calling matt and dan parents

• "the real bisexual struggle is simping for matt and dan in the same tiktok." -> liked from creator nickythefox_es commented/replied: ASDGFKSSDWADKWB

• Someone makes a 'put a finger down: Neil Josten edition' and nicky drags him to do it. They both smile as they listen to the prompts and Neil obviously puts all his fingers down but they're like "put a finger down if you clapbacked/if you bad mouthed someone (bonus points if it was on national tv)" "put a finger down if you're under 6 feet" "put a finger down if you love exy" and the last one just says "put a finger down if andrew minyard." Neil does and smiles at someone off camera. Needless to say it goes viral as well. A few weeks after nicky gets verified.

• Allison becomes friends with thenavarose and wisdom sorry I dont make the rules (they're fashion tiktokers)

• They make a series of rating each of the foxes throughout the day, including one of Wymack.

• They do receive bad comments, from bitter ravens fans or just recalling their pasts and nicky sits down and makes a video telling everyone about how they do this videos for fun they dont need hate and negative comments on their videos and all that

• Then another one posted minutes after, neil comes in and nicky says "okay neil you have one minute. Rant off." And neil goes on this rant like how they already hit Rock bottom a single comment is not gonna hurt them and "do you get how insignificant and meaningless your lives must be? You took the time to write and post a comment that you thought was gonna cause an impact and failed. Also thanks for the comments though it helps nicky stay on the algorithm." NICKY SCREECHES AND THE VIDEO ENDS WITH THEM SMILING

• Allison vlogs neil and her going shopping or thrifting also cutting Neil's hair

• *neil walks into the room wearing his orange bandana* *camera moves and zooms on Andrew's face* he doesnt lip sync but the song sings "oh noo I think I'm catching feelings" andrew tells him to delete it "but it already has thousands of likes andrew"

• They post some of their work out routines per request

• One of them is the fast and "I'm spinning like a ballerina" chill of neil just running on the treadmill and doing sprints and squats and leg stuff while it cuts to allison doing a bit of everything but looking like a queen on a matching set.

• A fun one that goes viral for "vine energy" is: it's very quiet on the court and Kevin, very in the zone, throws the ball to the goal, which Andre's catches easily and almost without moving. The camera goes back to kevin as he screeches and let's himself fall on the ground. Neil is standing beside him shaking his head and looking at the goal with a smile on his face.

• They try to teach neil the dances but while filming one of them he just leaves. They post it either way.

• They're in the bus, nicky is on selfie mode and says "it is game day my dudes" he turns and shows the whole bus S C R E A M S, in the corner Wymack is covering his face.

• The iconic "they say drunk thoughts are sober words" or something like that and it cuts to a series of videos of the foxes drunk af. Example: Nicky grabbing Allison's face and saying 'Remember. Bread. Head. Leave.' And allison nodding.

• Nicky films kevin standing up and put the "do you ever wonder what is going on inside their head?" And it cuts to pictures of racquets and exy and Jeremy Knox and one that says history stuff.

• Another one that goes viral is kevin very seriously and p e r f o r m i n g, rapping Jefferson's side of the cabinet battle #1 from Hamilton then towards the end andrew stands up in front of him and with his iconic bored expression he starts rapping Hamilton's part. Behind the camera there's a soft "...oh my gOD" and kevin is shocked eyes widen open and then the camera zooms on Neil who's mouth is open in shock but GRINNING and ~impressed~

• Dan and matt do The challenge, you know the one that like has to flip them over and all that and they ace it, nicky points the camera to where andrew and neil are stating and Andrew says no.

• A few minutes later another video of the challenge is posted only this time is matt and neil.

• Nicky and allison are in full gear filming a dance video (maybe savage or captain hook) on the court and someone films them filming that and then Wymack looking at them SO disappointed cut to Wymack with nicky's phone, having confiscated it and nicky besides him "coach, it's cardio!"

• Hours spent trying trick shots

• Foxes: "get back! Move!" Ravens: "Let me in! I be the I g g y!" Trojans: "Oh my God do no let her in" Foxes: "I am trying!"

• Nicky lying down: "okay but someone needs to tell me how old is the shirtless pottery guy. I can't be part of another controversy. It's for science c'mon. *debby Ryan's*"

• Someone comments "he's eighteen. Simp away, nicky." And he makes a video with his feet swinging and smiling. Aaron gets on the frame and says "we are deeply in need of some bowls." The caption: hi @ papapots

• They are verified so obviously he gains a couple of thousands followers and he duets smiling and with a package in his arms. Text: thanks for the support (and hi new followers from sport side of tiktok hope you enjoy my pots) caption: hi @ nickthefox_es I got you aaron.

• After the package comes they duet it with nicky screaming and showing off the goods and then he moves stop show andrew eating ice cream out of one of them. Caption: AJSNEPWLDKSS THANK YOU DAX

• Allison and nicky do the "I love you!" "No you dont topper! You love the idea of me. You love being seen with me but you dont love me." But nicky is Sarah and allison is topper. Next day the obx ig page reposted it "we stan the psu foxes pogues for life." And chase stokes posts it on Twitter saying "yoo the palmetto foxes watch??? my show???" Nicky takes a screenshot and on green screen he says "hi chase!! We do! The whole team binged it. Currently we've been debating who of us is going to dress up as pogues for Halloween." A lot of voices start arguing and as nicky is gonna enter the debate the video cuts.

• Allison does the facetime *deep male voice says hey* prank on them. Neil doesnt react. Nicky doesnt look up from his phone but does the finger thing and says "get that d, allison!" Dan and renee look at each other and then at allison and she bursts out laughing.

• aaron studying to be a doctor: *two plus two is four etc sound* andrew (eating pretzels from the bag while watching a game show lying down in a bean bag) and his eiditic memory [basically not needing to study]: *three is a magic number sound*

• Nicky runs through the court and enters the lounge beside the photo wall there's a poster he shows the camera as the sounds says it "alive ahaha fuck"

• Somehow they convince all of them to show up and do the wipe it down trend that ends up with wymack throwing the towel at the mirror.

• Comment: so how many members of the team listen to girl in red or sweater weather? Nicky stands there with the color filter: 👁👄👁👉👈 caption: yes❤

• He gets neil to duet to the whole "british people be like". "Neil I'm not british." "Part of you is so just read the tweets." He does and the comments are all thirst and simping

• Comment: raise your hand if you've been victimized by neil josten. Where my fellow Simps at? (The comment gets hundreds of thousands of likes) they make a video, everyone on the team except aaron who walks out raises their hand as the sound says "welcome to simp nation" kevin rolls his eyes but raises his, says something that nicky captions "i simp over his exy skills". andrew doesn't at first, but next to him neil whispers something and after andrew says yes, neil grabs Andrew's forearm and raises it. Andrew looks away and neil smiles.

• Nicky lying down: okay but what if Jean moreau traded places with the french guy from here you know who, david.

• Comment "ugh your mind nicky" reply video: right? Big brain, many thoughts, head full all the time. But like actually the idea of david playing exy and Jean hanging out with ducks and making viral tiktoks just-

• Comment "i feel you and @ austincantdrive would make the best chaotic duo" reply: we would be too powerful together. Austin replies too: agree.

• Allison makes a sports jersey/comfy wear but make it fashion and she styles herself. Everyone on the comments d i e s for her.

• Comment "okay but what about the boys. help allison." She makes a video too with matt and nicky and at the end neil wears an orange crop top and the internet b r e a k s

• Comment "allison do you listen to girl in red?" video reply: her winking at the camera and lip syncing as sweater weather plays. The comments a lot of them liked by creator: a win for the girls (and the boys)

• Upperclassmen Back in 2003: okay but hey do we always have to be involved? Can we do normal stuff that normal people do, like, go for brunch? Us (aaron, andrew, kevin and me): what the fuck is brunch?

• Of course they do the mr blue sky trend. Nicky: drunkenly goes to flirt with a guy. Aaron: drunkenly follows to get away from kevin. Kevin: drunk on pure vodka reminds us we have practice in the morning.

• Or another one all of them. Neil: ready to insult a reporter. Dan: tries not to laugh on camera. Matt: gets ready to hug him afterwards Allison and Nicky: Filming everything. Wymack: the only one trying to stop it from happening and failing.

• Dan and matt duet their reactions to every video edit of them, smiling and saying "your parents love you guys!".

• Comment "literally what is wrong with the ravens/ravens fans?The foxes are such a nice group of people and they're doing great in the sport y'all worship just shut up you cult-y athletic hype house." video reply: "ladies and gentlemen. The volume inside of this bus is A S T R O N O M I C A L."

• comment video reply: okay so we're not gonna talk about nicky at the gym?? Bc C A K E. nicky lip syncing "I'm glad you brung it up because I've been dying to talk about this for a fucking hot minute. First of all-"

• Colin uses one of Neil's or Andrew's interviews replies as one of his sounds and nicky fanboys a lot

• Allison and nicky do the Kardashian sound compilation.

• Nicky with a picture of Erik on green screen: "hi I just wanna say if you look anything like this please contact me. Thank you." Caption: miss u baby. And Erik watches his tiktoks and he facetimes him immediately. Nicky takes a screenshot and duets his own video crying with the screenshot caption: SKALSBSKAJSL Erik comments: stop making tiktoks and answer the phone, hemmick. Nicky replies: yessir everyone below comments keyboard smashes and you got a good one. Goals. Lmao kids that's what we call bottom panic. We stan one healthy long distance relationship and after that a bunch of long distance relationship questions that he makes another video on.

• A video of Katelyn and neil chatting and it pans to the twins watching them with the *when worlds collide sound*

• He reposts a snippet of one of his interviews post game where he grabs the mic from the reporter and nicky: can I say something? Reporter: sure, go ahead. Nicky: thank you. *looks straight into the camera* all the birds died in 1986 due to Reagan killing them and replacing them with spies that are now watching us. The birds work for the bourgeoisie. Thank you." And leaves. IT GOES VIRAL INSTANTLY.

• Comment "is everyone else gonna forget that tiktok where he said he was already part of a controversy? We stan a problematic icon?" Video reply: guys I might have been part of a whole Twitter beef thing against my little hoodie and Bruce hallway but c'mon, like, c'mon you can't blame me.

• Comment "for neil: does the carpet match the drapes 👅😍?" Video reply: neil on selfie mode. "Allison gave me her phone, told me to answer this and ran away so umm." He reads the box on the screen and frowns he walks and stands next to the window, where Andrew is sitting down and is barely seen on frame. "uhmm, the internet is confusing. Our carpet is like this" he turns the phone and shows the floor (grayish carpet) and then back at him "but we don't have drapes so, technically they don't match, I dont know." Andrew's head goes up and simply says "Neil." Neil turns "what?" And the video ends.

• of course nicky and allison do the WAP dance, on the court, when they should be running drills.

thoughts on the musicals y’all recommended!

tysm for all the recs! i had so much fun listening to them, i really appreciate it! always feel free to rec more :)  

to preface, there’s no actual judging system. it’s all about the vibes. so, in the order that i listened to them: 

the mad ones

i already made a post abt this one, but i have to mention it again. i’ve been listening to it on repeat. like. straight up on a loop. 

i’m obsessed with this

the storyline is so put together, and you can really feel the heart of the show

the characters were well written (with the exception of the boyfriend tbh, i could have done without him), and i’m so fascinated by sam and kelly’s relationship (writers were cowards for making them not gay) 

the songs felt super cohesive, and the repeated drum loop was super well integrated. the sound techie in me is fascinated by the way this show was put together, and i’d love to see it performed (like. fr. i was getting ideas for the design. which is always so much fun) 

19.75/10

romeo es julia

holy shit this slaps

costumes were weird

but the music was brilliant

some of the captioned lyrics were ???? bad translation or bad lyrics??? but the sound was incredible so i don’t even care 

mercutio and tybalt were spot on

the moms were GREAT. i LOVED their voices, like. could FEEL the emotions, even if i didn’t know wtf they were saying 

pretty much everyone was like that, like idk what’s going on via words, but i def can feel it, which is the best kind of song

my mother didn’t like this one but whatever, she didn’t get to see the choreo that went with it so what does she know 

the SET. the LIGHTS. the SOUND. the SET. the LIGHTS. the SOUND. chef’s kiss. 

14/10 

ordinary days

eh

i liked “favorite places” and “beautiful” a lot, but the rest of the songs were only okay

i wasn’t super attached to the characters and the singing was just. like. okay for me. i didn’t love any of them in particular 

my mother also didn’t like this one, rip. she has a lot of opinions on musicals. 

6/10

venice

oh my fucking god???????? 

not what i expected at all. right from the first lines i was like. 😲😲😲 

like. this was so good??? wtf???? hamilton meets shakespeare meets the mechanisms meets les mis meets post-9/11 politics meets dystopia. i thought it couldn’t be done, but here i am, in awe

i was going to include some favorite lines but. it’s just all of them. ALL of them. 

further confirmation that i’m in love with jennifer damiano. 

also angela polk?? incredible 

it’s weird bc it’s so clearly Not Broadway Music, but it’s also not trying to be, which i enjoy. i can see why some critics hated it (read some really funny reviews lmao), but i really loved the sound (haven’t seen the show, though, and that’s half of a musical, so maybe gonna try and find a bootleg) 

18.99/10

count of monte cristo 

damn from the overture this was. Intense. like. damn. i’m a slut for any dies irae sequence, so i was a big fan of that

that being said. gonna be real. i had no idea what was happening throughout the entire musical. it’s a pretty music-light show, so that’s probably why? 

maybe it would make more sense if i watched a performance rather than just listening to the soundtrack??? idk. anyone got a bootleg? 

thomas borchert has a nice voice. very distinctive. googled him to see where else i can listen to him. he was rum tum tugger. anyways. mad respect for this man

sonically, it didn’t feel like a very cohesive show? like it felt like there were a lot of diff vibes going around

lots of good songs for my evil musicals playlist though 

11/10 

once on this island (2017 revival)

ok turns out musicals are a lot better when sung by professionals than by sixth graders who think they can belt even tho their voices are still cracking 

also turns out that stories can be much more complex and interesting-- and have much deeper themes of racism and classism-- when on broadway than when in a sweaty middle school auditorium in an upper middle class white neighborhood 

funny how that works, huh 

i’m still a little unsure abt it, and probably wouldn’t listen to it just because i can, but i definitely don’t object to it anymore 

ty for making me give it a second try 

hailey kilgore is brilliant in this

the singing in general is REALLY impressive and beautiful 

12.68/10 

death note

i cannot express enough in words how mad i am that i actually liked this

genuinely don’t know how to feel 

i do think that i would get more out of it if i watched the anime, but it was still pretty easy to follow, just knowing the premise 

idk who the cast is bc i found a weird shady playlist on spotify rather than a cast recording, but the girl’s voice (idk character names) was beautiful. “i’ll only love you more” was SO good

reminded me a little of jekyll and hyde? which? huh

also i’m now getting tik tok videos with audio from this musical can my iphone stop stalking me for ONE second

fucking unfair that this is actually a good soundtrack. the desire to find a bootleg is unholy. 

14.87/10 

35mm

why did no one tell me that alex brightman is in this!!!!

i listened to a few songs and really enjoyed them, but didn't get through the whole album lmao

but i did really enjoy what i did listen to, and i'm gonna come back to it

9/10

ghost quartet

i wanted to like this one. SO badly. i REALLY wanted to like it.

but i couldn't really get into it? 

there were a few songs that absolutely slapped, but overall, it was just kinda. eh. which sucks bc i have heard such good things about it

i LOVED "the astronomer," "the telescope," and "lights out" 

but i didn't get through the entire album

i'll come back to it eventually and give it another try, i think. i might just not have been in the specific mood for it

9.8/10

[meepmoopfanfics]

you don’t get a win unless you’re playing the game

Daveed Diggs x Reader

I’m thinking of making this an extensive fan fiction on your journey to becoming a member of the first post-COVID recast of Hamilton where they bring back the OBC principals for one month only. It’s going to go by slowly because I’m really attentive to detail. 

Chapter 1

You had been working your ass off for months to prepare for your final Hamilton audition. You went in, nailed it, and pretty much nailed the singing, except for when they had you sing for a potential Maria Reynolds alternate. You had already known the show by heart from fangirling over every single Hamilton Slime Tutorial available on Youtube and the internet as well as the new HD movie on Disney Plus. You suffered long hours in the gym building your stamina and endurance for this. Your agent told you you would be hearing back from casting today at 2:00-3:00 pm sharp if you were hired. This was it. Your chance for Broadway. They were recasting the entire cast. You were 1/50 being considered to fill the 5 women ensemble parts, as well as women swings roles. 

You look down at your phone which displays the OBC Hamilton cast’s Vogue centerfold shoot photo. Of course it was zoomed in on Daveed Diggs to the left, grabbing his nuts, looking like a hot, charismatic, gentleman. It was your life goal to meet this man someday.

2:43 PM

“Fuck…” you said out loud to yourself. You were all alone in your closet sized studio apartment. You began pacing. You were browsing Youtube on your Apple TV, listening to your favorite Broadway songs that had nothing to do with Hamilton to ease your nerves. Your green urban outfitters tank top was drenched in sweat in the underarms. Your anxiety was skyrocketing. You thought about your ex who you recently broke up with and wish you had him to comfort you through this terrifying time. 

You finished scream singing Suddenly Seymour and looked back down at your phone.

2:48PM

It was getting bleak. It didn’t seem like this was going to happen for you. You began to spiral, beginning to feel your throat tensing up, your heart falling into your gut, feeling your soul shattered, you worked so hard and this is what you were going to have to live with for the rest of your li—

“LAFAYETTE! I’m taking this horse by the reigns making redcoats redder with bloodstains!”

Your head couldn’t process that your phone, which you made sure wasn’t on silent and turned up to the max so you wouldn’t miss a call, was ringing with a random number on it. You’ve seen the number so many times before from your agency calling for normal check-ins. 

“LAFAYETTE! And I’m never gonna stop until I see em drop and—“

“Hello?”

“Hi! Y/N?”

“Yes this is she!”

“This is Jenny. Where are you at right now?” “I’m in my apartment in the heights! Simply pacing waiting to hear back from casting.” You nervous giggled, putting on your most professional voice. You had personally asked your agent to call you either way based on what casting had to offer or not.

“Well Y/N I have some news for you... I I think you may want to sit down to hear this.”

Your heart sank back down. You felt tears rushing to your tear ducts. Heat rushed over your face and you began to shake as a panic attack began settling in.

“Okay I’m sitting. Is everything okay? Was the feedback negative?”

“Y/N… how’d you like to make your Broadway debut as The Bullet?”

Your whole world stopped.

“Are you joking right now?”

“Of course not. This is one of the happiest calls I’ve ever made as an agent. I know how badly you wanted this and we’re all so happy for you.”

You begin to scream and cry and laugh all at the same time. 

“Y/N? Are you okay? Are you laughing or crying? Or both?”

“I’m so happy I can’t even breathe!” You exclaimed. 

“You’ll be starting rehearsals on Monday morning at the Richard Rogers. Wanna know something else really cool?”

“What?”

“The principals for the first month of shows will be from the OBC. Lin Manuel, Anthony Ramos, All three Schuyler sisters, Christopher Jackson, Daveed Diggs, Oak-“

“I’m sorry… WHAT” you screamed. 

Jenny laughed a huge belly laugh. You began to dance around your apartment alone, stomping your feet on your hard wood floor. You’d be sure to be getting a noise complaint from the elderly couple that lived in the apartment below you.

“Yes! Daveed is coming back.”

“I’m in, I’m so in.”

“I’ll send you the details as soon as I’m done. We’re so proud of you and will be there for you debut on president’s day!”

You dropped your phone onto the floor. You didn’t even look or check to see if it was cracked. You could afford a new one anyway. Broadway salary? And Hamilton for that matter?!?

And you were going to be your dream role, making your Broadway debut, with Daveed Diggs right at your side. Daveed Diggs was going to know your name.

You already started writing what your Instagram caption was going to say for your debut post…

You had to call your parents and all of your best friends. This was the start of something new.

Talks on TikTok

Pairing: Jordan Fisher x Female Reader

Warnings: Some bad words, my bad this whole thing is one bog self insert!

Request? Yes! Tagged @johnlaurensbitch​ and anon request!! this is probably a very late request,, considering i’m never on tumblr.

Preview: kinda self explanatory?? but basically reader duets jordan’s tiktok and he sees it and messages her!!

Y/F/N is Your Friend’s Name!!

Masterlist

TikTok was a relatively new app in your life. You had done a few POV’s and also sang along to the Sofia The First song to “broadway attractive men: sing-a-long edition” specifically to sing along for Thayne Jasperson and Jordan Fisher. It had become a new obsession, as you replied to comments and liked funny ones that made you laugh when you couldn’t sleep.

As you swiped through your For You page and liked a few, you received a comment notification. @username: @yourusername please duet this!!! 

Upon reading the comment, you first checked the username to make sure it wasn’t a weird bot account, and you realized it was not. After that, you clicked the video and it took you to Jordan Fisher’s account. 

The video was a 60 second clip of Jordan singing the Orpheus part of “All I’ve Ever Known” from Hadestown. You already knew the song and you had seen Reeve in the Original Broadway Cast, alongside Eva Noblezada, prior to Coronavirus putting every inch of Broadway in the dark.

Below the video, the caption said “Duet this as Eurydice! Let me hear your voices! :) #fyp #hadestown #duet.”

Maybe you could duet it? Of course you could, it was just a simple sixty second video, it wouldn’t change or affect your life in any way shape or form. At least that’s what you initially thought.

Clicking the small swishy arrow, then clicking duet, you sang your part and finalized the video, with the caption ‘The Orpheus to my Eurydice! Cast Jordan as Orpheus or you’re cowards!!! #fyp #bway #duet #hadestown’ Granted the duet itself wasn’t anything professional and was merely for fun, as you assumed Jordan would never see it, let alone anyone from Broadway that would see your poke at the Hadestown casting directors.

You went to text your friend about your recent Glee binge while pressing play on the next episode, though Netflix should know you by now. Of course you’re ‘still watching,’ that shouldn’t even be a question. You decide to grab the bag of chips off of the coffee table before plopping yourself on the couch and settling into the plot that was the storm of Glee.

Two episodes in and your phone vibrates beside you. 

Y/F/N Calling...

You accept the call and raise the phone to your ear.

“Oh my God! You saw it right? Tell me you saw it?” they shrill into your ear.

“What is ‘it?” What are you talking about?”

“Come on Y/N... Jordan commented on your post!”

“No way.. What the fuck!? Let me go see.” you respond before adding, “hold on, I’ll call you back.”

Sure enough, you opened TikTok and there was the notification, or the many notifications...

@jordan_fisher: YOU KILLED THIS! 😍

Another notification popped up, this time a little paper airplane depicting a dm.

Jordan Fisher: 

Hey! You did so good on that duet!! 

Does he do that to everyone who duets? What was going on...

You take a screenshot and send it to Y/F/N with ‘tell me i’m reading this wrong... this is fake...’ undernearth the screenshot.

You go back to TikTok and reply, or try to, as Y/F/N floods you with texts. ‘OMG DATE’ ‘WTF NO WAY’ ‘OMG SIS U HAVE TO’ ‘MESSAFE HIM’ ‘FLIRT FLIRT PLS OMH DO IT NOW FOT ME’

Y/N L/N:

Thank you! That means so much coming from you! Yours was phenomenal

He responded almost instantaneously.

Jordan Fisher: 

Well I kinda do the singing thing for a living. Seriously though, do you sing? I’ve seen some of your videos, you’re really good!

Now he wants to actually know you? Not only that, but he’s creeped on your TikTok? He doesn’t do this with everyone... right?

Y/N L/N:

Well I knew that much. I sing in the shower! Not professionally, but I’ve written some stuff.. I wish I had the guts to get out there!

You were actually shaking, and didn’t know what to even say to him. This was all so surreal to you.

Then you got an Instagram notification. 

@jordan_fisher has followed you!

Followed by a TikTok notification that Jordan had duetted you back. The duet was Jordan staring at the screen with a smile on his face while you sang the Eurydice part, then adding “OH MY GOD SHE’S LITERALLY SO GOOD!” to the end. 

Comments flooded in left and right, follows on Instagram.. It seemed endless. You decide to mess with him and message him on Instagram. 

@YourUsername: 

You stalking me or something? 🤔

@jordan_fisher: 

Maybe it’s something like that. Or maybe you just caught my eye.

@YourUsername:

Is that so?

@jordan_fisher:

Yeah, you really blew me away!

@YourUsername:

Okay Philip Hamilton blow us all away tease! Btw you did so good in that show! 

@jordan_fisher:

You saw it?

@YourUsername:

Yeah I saw you as Philip and John, but couldn’t stagedoor :( but here I am talking to you so!

@jordan_fisher:

Well I’m glad the universe worked out that way!

@YourUsername:

Literally how many people can say they’re talking to their childhood crush on Instagram? Not many!

@jordan_fisher:

Childhood crush huh?

@YourUsername:

Let’s just say my younger sibling had a thing for Liv&Maddie😂

@jordan_fisher:

That’s cute though! Gotta start somehow. This is totally random, and you can say no, but what would you say to coffee sometime?

@YourUsername:

I’d say that I’ll need your number to let your know when your order is ready, just like Starbucks!

@jordan_fisher:

Oh right, like Starbucks...😂 xxx-xxx-xxxx

@YourUsername:

I’ll text you the plan yeah?

@jordan_fisher:

Can’t wait!

Roman's Angst Playlist

So recently, I decided to do an angst playlist for Roman followed by Logan. I might do one for the other sides in the future. Also if you don't have Spotify and want me to make it a youtube playlist then please let me know.

So im going to explain why I chose certain songs and why I think Roman would listen to them when he feels sad.

Okay I saw this as a tik tok audio used for Virgil Cosplay but when I listened to the lyrics it (no pun intended) screamed Roman.

If you listen to the lyrics closely it details exactly how Roman feels. He feels denied of being himself.

"You wanted me to show more interests

To always keep a big bright smile

Be that pinky little perfect princess

But I'm not that type of child."

That just exactly seems like what he forces himself to be to keep the others happy. He feels like he has to be perfect.

Pft so why this of all Disney Songs, Mel? Well, im glad you asked. I would have chosen I Will Go The Distance if it wasn't already on Roman's plus it's too subtle, we're looking for songs that openly state Roman's issues. Reflection is perfect for Roman and a lot you artists in the fandom agree with me. It perfectly represents how Roman doesn't feel good enough for the other sides.

This song perfectly represents how Roman feels about Patton. He is constantly risking it all to gain Patton's approval but he never gets anything in return from the father figure. I'll do a full analysis in the future.

You know I had to put Hamilton on here and burn definitely replicates perfectly how Roman feels after svs redux. This song also represents how Roman feels about Janus as you forget how badly Janus treated Roman during the original svs and can lying be good.

I'm sorry I had to put one song about feeling like a monster. Roman hates his flaws and his mistakes. This song is perfect as like if suggests Roman hides his demons.

Slight language warning here but I had to include this song. Roman constantly tries to look out for the others and change for them. Yet they're holding the gun, it perfectly represents how betrayed Roman feels especially by Thomas and Patton. He made self-sacrifice and they don't defend him after the moustache comment so he thinks they agree with Janus. He thinks all of his friends have betrayed him after how much he tried to change for them.

Please don't cry but I added this song because I think this is Roman insulting himself. He feels like he's such a rude bully and that he never makes the others happy. He's essentially telling himself you're going to rot in hell because all you do is bully the other sides.

A less subtle version of Broadway here I come so yeah it fits.

Pft apparently everyone in the fandom once said this suited Virgil well not anymore. This pretty much probably somes up all of Romans feelings after he sinks out during pof. He like the fandom is probably villainizing himself. I don't think Romans gonna join the dark sides but unfortunately, I think he will try to duck out without everyone noticing. After that comment from Janus, he's blaming himself for everything. Trapped in self-loathing till the next episode.

So I've reached the audio limit so ill have to link the next few songs.

https://youtu.be/cRTjksM3YAs

Here me out change the lyrics from man or muppet to good twin or bad twin. Roman is going to be reflecting a lot after pof.

https://youtu.be/1rfSHisyHdc

Due the old man on the throne telling Roman he probably shouldn't be so mean is Patton. Also it just suits Roman more than Remus for some reason.

https://youtu.be/sENM2wA_FTg

It just suits Roman because he doesn't want to change who he is.

https://youtu.be/ulJXiB5i_q0

Your gonna kill me but imagine Roman singing I dreamed a dream straight after the original svs. Roman feels like especially after svs redux that all of his dreams have been taken away from him.

https://youtu.be/Rl3ELiPXFRo

First comes the blessings of all that you dreamed but then comes the curses of diamonds and rings. Who can you trust?

All of these lyrics scream Roman-like im sorry that every single imagine dragons song suits Roman. Like if I'd been irrational this playlist would have been just imagine dragons songs.

https://youtu.be/SL_YMm9C6tw

Like how could I not include this one on here, Roman has constantly been told by Logan that his dreams are stupid.

https://youtu.be/mw5VIEIvuMI

Like ever since getting into this fandom this song has a whole different meaning to me instead of just calling this a female power ballad I keep relating this to Logan and Roman pleading to be listened too. Ahh please get Roman and Logan to sing this as a duet Thomas.

https://youtu.be/8v_4O44sfjM

No caption made it just feels like Romans heart.

https://youtu.be/w6g1yQV0dIY

Roman feels lost this is going to be his battle after he stops blaming himself every time Thomas has a problem.

https://youtu.be/r5yaoMjaAmE

Ok, this does suit Logan but it also suits Roman. Despite how mean he can be to cover up his insecurities he is still offended by the others biting back.

https://youtu.be/JFYedt-KnB0

Now the last song is if only from the first descendant's movie. It perfectly represents Roman's inner conflict, after Patton and Thomas giving up on him he doesn't know what's right and wrong anymore.

Ok so that was my Roman angst playlist and I hope you enjoy it I put a lot of hard work into it.

[thtdamfangirl4]

thanks @pretend-im-normal for this set of questions!

i shall start with a christmas ask game (yes i know it’s january 28th) created by none other than archie’s husband

1. Their favorite Christmas tradition

I think for Archie it has to be baking christmas cookies. He loves doing it even if it’s just him, but especially doing it with the people he loves. He takes the decorating process way too seriously (this may or may not be inspired by my real life) and all the bois pitch in and reginald’s are always disturbing but annoyingly delicious and dorian’s are always a little goth and octavius’s are fabulous and archie keeps telling him that louboutins are not a christmas item but octavius insists that since he asked for them for christmas they should count, and archie loves him so he lets it slide. Eustace very carefully decorates and does his best and every time you eat one you can tell it’s full of love. Jasper wants everything to be as colorful as possible and he covers them in sprinkles. And nathaniel, lovely nathaniel, can’t decorate for shit but he just has fun with it and laughs the whole time and that makes archie’s chest feel tight for reasons he can’t explain until later. And then Archie and Nate finally start dating and during their first Christmas, aside from the bois cookie night, they do one of their own and Archie shows Nate how to decorate the way he does and Nate can’t quite get there but he’s following each direction with fervor and they look pretty good and he’s so proud of himself and Archie sneaks mistletoe into the kitchen and kisses him and now they do it every year, and every year Nate gets a little better. And eventually they have kids and they join the tradition (even the annual cookie decorating night with the bois), and Cam is fantastic at cookie decorating and Ben eats the dough and Archie swats him teasingly with a wooden spoon every time and Evie mixes icing colors cause she’s great at art and Nate washes dishes and makes a valiant effort and they dance around the kitchen and sing christmas music playing from Archie’s phone and he smiles the whole time and every year, he pulls out the mistletoe and kisses his husband and the kids go from thinking it’s cute to thinking it’s gross and embarrassing and all the way back to thinking it’s adorable when they’re old enough and one year Evie snaps a picture of it and it’s on the Christmas card the next year. Christmas is his favorite time of the year, and cookie days just feel like this magic untouchable place where he’s with his family and doing what he loves and to him, it is Christmas personified.

2. Their favorite Christmas song

It’s very hard to narrow down, so I’ll give a top three: All I Want for Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey, Last Christmas by Wham!, and Mary Did You Know by Pentatonix.

3. Their least favorite Christmas song

This will not come as a shock, because well... I’m Archie. It’s Michael Buble’s version of Santa Baby. He loves most of Michael’s Christmas music, but in his words, Michael Buble “needs to man up and be willing to fuck Santa or don’t bother singing the song.” He just made it weird by having it be Santa Buddy and Santa Pally. And Archie loves this song. He tweets Michael Buble about it every Christmas, begging him to erase it from existence.

4. Their general feelings about Christmas

Archie goes feral for Christmas. He loves everything about it. Fun, family, love, festivity, good music, good food, an excuse to bake 24/7, baby Jesus, buying presents, getting presents. Archie prides himself on being the Christmas Bitch. He’s especially fantastic at gift-giving.

5. Their favorite Christmas treat

Octavius’s homemade pizelles dipped in spiked hot chocolate.

6. The best gift they ever received

When Evie is like 20, she gives him a scrapbook for Christmas. It’s filled with pictures of Archie, Nathaniel, the kids, and the other bois over the years. Every page has Taylor Swift lyrics that relate to the images and stories, as well as messages she’s written and cute captions. In addition to pictures, there’s little mementos like ticket stubs or receipts or notes she’s collected from her dad and her aunts and uncles and scattered throughout the book are cutout lines from a printed out version of the poem he wrote for his and Nathaniel’s anniversary. Archie cries for like 3 hours.

7. The worst gift they ever received

One year, Jessica gets him in the PTA secret santa, and she gets him a few workout shirts and an expensive bottle of red wine. He’s so offended. To an outsider, this may seem like a nice gift, but it’s very clear that she got him the shirt because she disapproves of his crop tops. And she knows full well that he doesn’t really like red wine. He’s a white wine bitch. She knows. It’s been discussed.

8. The best gift they ever gave

He likes to joke that the best gift he’s ever given is the supplementary bundle of “free sex” coupons he gave to Nathaniel their first Christmas together (he also got him a fluffy bathrobe, a playlist of songs that remind him of nate, an anthology of queer writing and letters from historical figures, and a trip to color me mine, don’t worry). But the real best gift he ever gave was years later, when they’ve been married for 5 years. He surprises Nathaniel with a trip to New York, where he’s also gotten them tickets to a revival of Hamilton, they go on a tour of diner breakfasts, and then have a shopping and spa day. And then he has them get dressed up but Nathaniel doesn’t know why and after they go to a fancy dinner, he takes Nathaniel to the Woolworth building on Broadway (where the ball scene from Enchanted takes place), and the whole place has been rented out there’s the actual singer from the movie and they slow dance in the romantic lighting to So Close (their wedding song) and it’s endlessly romantic and both of them are crying a lot little.

9. The worst gift they ever gave

No. Archie has never given a bad gift in his life.

10. How they decorate their house

dude. DECK THE FUCKING HALLS. There are two trees. One is picture perfect and looks straight out of a hallmark movie, and the other one is covered in popcorn strings and tacky ornaments from movies and shows and homemade ones by the kids and Ben always puts too much tinsel on it and Cam eats the candy canes so it’s a little wonky and that one is not-so-secretly Archie’s favorite. Beautiful wreaths on the doors and windows outside. Beautiful real-looking garland and berries and red ribbon and little bells decorate the banisters and staircases. There are lights everywhere. Christmas paintings. Outside is decked the fuck out in lights of all colors, he loves the icicles, no blow ups, but he does get a moving reindeer made of lights, and it’s a whole winter wonderland. Lots of seasonal scented candles. White lights on the mantle. Always a fire burning in the fireplace. A beautiful handmade and well-lit nativity scene. Cinnamon scented pinecones everywhere. Santa, reindeer, and snowman figures are in a lot of places. He puts mistletoe above every doorway, molding, entryway, high cabinet, or anywhere he can hang it because the man loves love and he wants as many excuses as he can get to kiss his husband.

11. Their favorite Christmas memory

On Evie’s first Christmas, she gets all fussy and cries a lot while they’re at Octavius and Dorian’s for Christmas Eve and so they go home early and they put her to bed but it’s only like 8pm. So they have their own end to the night and it’s just them in their pajamas, watching The Holiday and Love Actually while drinking tea and they just cuddle up under a blanket. Archie gives Nate forehead kisses and they fall asleep curled up on the couch halfway through The Year Without a Santa Claus. And he wakes up and Nate isn’t there anymore and he finds him holding Evie in her rocking chair humming Christmas songs to her and he just watches from the doorway until Nate finally looks up and smiles at him. And then they get everything ready cause everyone they know is coming to their house for Christmas and Evie wears an adorable Christmas onesie and they all open presents but. Those like 12 hours. Cuddling with Nathaniel and watching christmas romcoms and waking up to see his husband rocking their beautiful baby daughter to christmas songs. Yeah. That one’s his favorite.

12. Their least favorite Christmas memory

When he was like 12 (back in the regency days) he got sick on Christmas and couldn’t go to any of the events or parties and he hated it. But other than that,,, there’s a reason Christmas is his favorite time of year. It’s magic for him.

13. if/Where they travel for the holidays

Nah. He always stays home. He’s the Christmas Hostess With The Mostest. Always home for Christmas. He, Nathaniel, and the kids do go to Disney World for the week before/including New Year’s one year though.

14. Who they spend the holidays with

Obviously: Nathaniel, Octavius, Dorian, Reginald, Jasper, Eustace, Tyler, (and eventually) Evie, Ben, and Cam, and Eustace and Tyler’s kids. Gigi, Chloe, Jackie, and Liza, switch off every year whether they’re with family or the bois. Lynn and Suzanne always come to Christmas Eve and stop by on Christmas day before going to see their families. Every once in a while, Reginald brings a Doug who had nowhere else to go.

15. All of their Christmas traditions (not just their favorite XD)

jesus. well some have been listed. Cookies, decorating, hanging mistletoe fucking everywhere. he starts listening to Christmas music on November 1st. Snowball fight with the whole crew. Snowman contest with the whole crew. Getting drunk and watching Hallmark/Netflix Christmas movies. Making cinnamon rolls for christmas morning. wearing an entire christmas wardrobe in the month of december. Christmas treats at the bakery. Looking hot at Nathaniel’s work Christmas party. Wrapping presents for weeks after the kids go to bed. Making the world’s best hot cocoa. Bugging Octavius for his pizelle recipe (he won’t give it up). tweeting one direction and begging them to reunite for a Christmas album. Rewatching all the holiday seasons of the Great British Bake Off. Making roast for Christmas dinner. Making mulled wine at some point. Game day with the crew the day after Christmas. Writing Nate a poem every Christmas they’re usually really bad . eating one candy cane per season out of obligation and then going back to his hatred of mint. buying a million seasonal items at Bath and Body Works. watching It’s a Wonderful Life with Nathaniel on Christmas Eve Eve. Dressing his kids in christmas pajamas. That’s all I can think of for now.

okay i’m finally done this took me almost two hours oh my god. happy frat boi-ing.

My favorite line(s) from each Hamilton song – Part Three

Part Two

Part One

What’d I Miss?

Where have you been? – Uuuh, France?

+ The fact that this was originally improvised by Daveed Diggs and it was kept in

 Cabinet Battle #1

Look, when Britain taxed out tea, we got frisky Imagine what gon’ happen if you try to tax our whiskeyyyyy

mic drop

You don’t have the votes AH HA HA HA you’re gonna need congressional approval and you don’t have the votes

Such a blunder, sometimes it makes me wonder why I even bring the thunder Why he even brings the thunder

This just speaks so much for Jefferson’s and Madison’s characters, plus it’s iconic

 Take A Break

(with Eliza beatboxing)

My name is Phillip I am a poet I wrote this poem just to show it And I just turned nine You can write rhymes but you can’t write MIne (WHaT)

And the rest of Phillip’s poem aaaah he’s just so pure in this :,-) I also love both his parent’s during this, so wholesome

 Say No To This

Did I say ‘wholesome’? I actually meant

nO, NO

and also:

You see, that was my wife who you decided toFUUUuuuuuuu

Lmfao

 The Room Where It Happens

Straight up, the whole song. Definitely my favorite in the whole musical. But I guess my favorite line would be

My God in God we trust, but we never really know what God discussed (hah) Click, boom, then it happened AnD NO One else was is the room where it happened

The way Leslie Odom Jr. says/sings that … idk, it just really appeals to me. Also, like, the choreography for that number? Uuuugh so GOOD!

 Schuyler Defeated

FurTheR dOwN, fURtHer DoWn

With that familiar melody, geniussssss

 Cabinet Battle #2

you must be out of your GODDAMN MIND if you think,

I love how Jefferson just stays completely calm when Hamilton suddenly screams at him, like, makes me think he has snapped before during one of their debates and at this point you just have to expect it at some point lmaoooo but also very in character for Hamilton, AND understandable, Jefferson’s very annoying indeed

A game of chess, where France is king and queen-less

I mean, that just such a great line … LMM HOW do you write so good

ALso, I really wanted to link this one really great post here, it’s about when Jefferson says “Did you forget Lafayette?” and then OP put this one scene in Mulan where she holds up her hair into a bun to show the villain she’s the ‘man’. Nvm I can’t explain it well enough but I hope you’ve seen it or will someday because it’s the best

 Washington On Your Side

Someone on Youtube captioned Jefferson’s little laughs at the beginning when Burr first starts to sing as ‘awkward unimpressed chuckling’ and I think that’s genius so I’ll just put it here (note that you can only hear it in the movie itself, it’s not included in the recordings)

*awkward unimpressed chuckling*

BUt also the fact that Jefferson repeatedly mentions Hamilton’s clothes and how he dresses in a rather inappropriate way when meanwhile HE is the one wearing a PINK VELVET COAT is one of the funniest things in the whole musical to me

and in this number when he’s like

The way he primps and preens and dresses like the pits of fashion

I THINK Burr also notices this and even tries to point it out a little, at least that’s what I get from his mimics and gestures in that moment, but maybe that’s just my headcanon lol

 One Last Time

This whole song is really beautiful and tear-jerking ngl :(

Though, in reviewing the incidents of my administration, I am unconscious of intentional error, I am nevertheless too sensible of my defects not to think it probable that I may have committed many errors.

And the rest of the farewell address. Honestly, knowing this is the real transcript of the real speech the real Washington gave and that it was written by the real Hamilton just makes this (real) special imo

 I Know Him

They say George Washington’s yielding his power and stepping away Is that true? I wasn’t aware that was something a person could do

King George really never fails to make me laugh (also can we talk about what Jonathan Groff did with his literal 9 minutes on stage?? amazing)

 The Adams Administration

Literally just the chaos that ensues on stage after Hamilton drops his newspapers

Note that 1) King George runs away in a hilarious manner and 2) Jefferson is actually startled/scared lmaooo

 We Know

hAH! You don’t even know what you’re asking me to confess (CoNfEsS!)

I just love that moment idk it’s kinda satisfying (haha) to see Burr, Madison and Jefferson thinking they have Hamilton cornered only to find out they assumed the completely wrong thing – I mean, at that point, I think I was still kinda rooting for Hamilton ngl

No one else was in the room where it happens …

Idk I just think it’s a very clever little reference, and coming from Burr, I mean, he must know … also Leslie Odom Jr.’s voice is just such a blessing to the ears

Aaand done. Well, almost. Part 4 is here!

Hamilton High School AU 50

Aaron brought out a tray of cupcakes. "We're just finishing up with the decorating."

"Thanks!"

"You're the best!"

Aaron nodded and went back to the kitchen as the girls began eating the cupcakes.

Lafayette smiled and began getting up to join them before his phone rang, another Snapchat from Hercules coming through. He blushed as he saw a picture of shirtless Hercules lounging in his room, winking with a cheeky grin with the caption [Miss you xx]. His face was dark red and he was sure that he'd be flustered just if the girls noticed his reaction. Naturally, he had to get revenge. He covered the camera so the screen was black, as if he was hiding, with the simple caption [THE GIRLS SAW THAT PICTURE OVER MY SHOULDER, HERC]

[LAF WHY] Hercules sent a panicked selfie.

[Kidding <3] He sent back a selfie with a cheeky grin.

[my poor heart can't take this stress] He looked more than relieved. A minute later, he sent back another selfie, showing off more of his shirtless self as he laid in bed. [I suppose I can forgive you... 😉] Then another. [Honestly I feel so cuddly right now. why aren't youu heerreeeee...?]

"Ew! Stop it!"

Lafayette practically jumped out of his skin as Martha cried out.

"George is so disgusting!"

Frances tutted. "Alright, you don't like him. You'll at least have a date with a red solo cup, just like me." She rolled her eyes and caught a glimpse of Lafayette's flustered face. "At least Lafayette will have a fun night. What did he say?"

Lafayette shook his head. "Nothing. He's just being silly.." He sent back an almost casual looking selfie, a slight blush still visible. [You seem like you want a little bit more than just to cuddle with me 😘]

How could Hercules resist taking things further? [Me? Want more? Never... 😉] said the caption over Hercules's selfie with him winging and sticking his tongue out cheekily. Soon after, he sent another topless picture, the dim light of the room catching every curve of Hercules' muscles. [Have fun with the giiirrlllllsssss...! Hope you have a long hoodie 😘😘😘]

Lafayette blushed again, Frances grinning.

"He's sending you something rude, isn't he?"

"Ooh, scandalous!"

"Let us see!"

"What are you guys up to out here?" Theodosia asked as she and Aaron brought out the rest of the cupcakes, a few strawberry slices decorating the tops.

"Hercules is sending Lafayette something that's making him blush and he won't let us see!"

Lafayette rolled his eyes. [Yes, this hoodie that I stole from you is plenty long on me and I need that now, thanks to you 💗] He sent a picture of the giggling girls. [Seriously, though, they're getting curious. We can continue this later 😘] "It is none of your concern and I'm not letting you see."

Aaron chuckled and decided to let the girls torture Lafayette without him. He got Rosie and CC and took them outside to Theodosia's backyard.

[Not gonna lie, I'm looking forward to 'later', baby 😘❤️]

At least he decided to leave him alone.

"He's sending you nudes, isn't he?" Frances asked with a tut.

Theodosia shifted uncomfortably at that. She was still a bit too raw for jokes like that. "As long as you don't save them.." she said dryly, attempting to brush it off. "Hey, do you think you can do my makeup next?"

"Of course I can. And he's not sending me nudes, just shirtless selfies... That you're not allowed to see." He sat beside Frances on the floor and finished the makeup that he'd began. "You know, it was actually my friend John Laurens who taught me how to do makeup. He was trying to explain something about art to me and he figured I'd learn more easily if he used a metaphor that I'd get, like makeup. So we both kind of learned that way." He finished with Frances after maybe fifteen minutes, keeping it simple and mainly natural, though a touch of light pink here and there added the soft femininity to Frances's face that she struggled to grasp herself. "There you go."

"John seems like a cool guy. Theo really seems to look up to him." Frances looked at her reflection in a mirror and smiled. "Hey, I like this. Do you think you can do my makeup for the dance next Friday?"

"Of course. You're up, Theodosia." He smiled as she sat in front of him and began on her makeup. "Do you do art, too?"

"Oh.. Nothing nearly as great as John. He's so talented!"

"I'm sure you're great."

"You should see her art, Laf! It's splattery, but still so neat and really pretty."

"Aw, Marti.." Theodosia muttered, flustered by the compliment. "It's just for fun.. But I'd like to get better.."

"If Alex and Aaron wanted you to be involved in the art dance, I'm sure you're great. Who are you going as, anyways? Those two are Anna and Else and I'm going with Herc as Cinderella and Prince Charming."

"Me and Aaron are going to be Ariel and Eric." She smiled softly.

Lafayette nodded. "I still want to see your art." He took a bit longer than he had with Frances's, adding quite a bit more detail to it. The end result seemed fit for a mermaid, shimmery blues and greens highlighting the details of her face and a few scale patterns were done around her face in silver.

Theodosia shrugged and looked in a mirror, gasping quietly. "Oh, Laf.. I love it! It's so pretty! I can tell you learned this from John Laurens."

Lafayette smiled. "I'm glad you like it.." He smiled and did Martha's makeup, keeping it natural as he had with Frances.

Just as he finished up her makeup, they all turned towards the kitchen door as Aaron and the cats came back inside, Rosie yawning. CC picked her up by the scruff of her neck and carried her to the couch, laying around her protectively as he went to sleep.

Aaron smiled, then turned towards the girls, his face going bright red as he looked at Theodosia. "Oh... Wow.. You look amazing.."

"Now it's your turn!"

"Over my dead body."

Lafayette tutted. "I'm kidding. Now it's my turn. The girls get to make me look pretty."

Frances roller her eyes. "We can't make you any prettier than you already are."

"If I can make you three prettier than you already are, I think you can make me look a lot prettier than this."

All three girls blushed. Lafayette was so soft and caring and he got along well with the girls so well, it was no wonder they liked having him around so much.

"Well, If anyone can do this, it's definitely Theo," Martha said, volunteering her friend for the project.

Theodosia shrugged. "Well, I can't make you prettier, but I can do something." She used his face as a canvas, similarly to how he'd done to her. A baby pink flower outlined in lavender and detailed with blue spread over his cheek, splatter marks and petals over his other cheek. It showed her distinct style of splatter marks and ink blots, coupled with a bit of eyeliner and a shimmery pink lipstick.

Lafayette smiled widely as he looked at his reflection, the flower moving perfectly with his face.

"I told you I couldn't make you prettier, just add to how pretty you are.."

He rolled his eyes playfully. "Then I suppose I did all of your makeup for nothing? You all already face faces fit for princesses."

Aaron smiled as Lafayette flirted- no, complimented, the three girls. As much as he seemed to fluster them, it was so casual, it was impossible to imagine him doing it for any reason other than to make them feel nice. He'd have to take notes to have the same effect on Theodosia.

Lafayette took a selfie and sent it to his friends with the caption [Theodosia made me a princess!]

John, who had been watching movies at the time, responded first. [Gorgeous! She's a great artist!]

Hercules responded right after, taking another second after being blown away by his boyfriend's looks. [Woaaahhhh, baby! 💕 You're so precious, good god! 👼] [God I'm in love with you 💕]

Lafayette smiled and showed Theodosia. "See? It's not just me."

Theodosia felt a familiar flutter in her chest as she read the responses. With the exception of Hercules, who was reasonably more focused on his boyfriend, the reactions were so pure and sincere. Mark didn't give anything a second thought if it wasn't sexy or hot, but there was so much more to the world than guys like him... and Theodosia was overwhelmed by it. She hiccuped and her friends giggled a bit.

"Oh, geez.." Martha sighed.

"If only there was a handsome gentleman that could cuddle the sadness out of you.."

"But I'm not sa-" She was cut off by Frances nudging her and pointing towards Aaron. "Oh! Yes, cuddles, please.."

Aaron nodded and gladly sat beside her, wrapping his arms around her as she hiccuped and a few tears spilled.

"Oh, god, I'm going to mess up the makeup.. I'm so sorry, Laf.."

"Don't be. A girl as talented and pretty as you should always be receiving this kind of attention," Lafayette responded as he carefully wiped the remaining makeup from her face. Just as it came naturally to Thomas and Alexander to berate and belittle, Lafayette loved to flatter girls on things they didn't necessarily get enough compliments on, only rarely using it to flirt and get his way.

Frances and Martha decided against teasing the couple for once and Lafayette sided with them, letting them be as soon as he finished cleaning the makeup. The pair looked too happy to disrupt. They passed the time by talking a bit more about the dance, talking about how the girls were going to sing for it and how a few kids from the school band were going to help them out. They even asked Lafayette if he wanted to sing a few songs. Of course, he accepted and even volunteered John to join them, too.

Still, they were teenage girls. They could only remain quiet for so long. So, as soon as Lafayette came out of the kitchen with a bottle of water, Martha and Frances gave each other a look, sharing the same idea.

"Spin the bottle?"

"Definitely. Theo?"

"Well, I don't see why not. Aaron?"

"I don't know.."

"What is this game? I've never heard of it."

They all looked at Lafayette, surprise. Of all people, he'd never heard of that game?

"You spin the bottle and you're supposed to kiss whoever it points at," Aaron explained.

Lafayette smiled and finished the water. "I'll play. It sounds fun."

Martha took the first turn, spinning the empty water bottle. When it landed on Theodosia, the pair gave each other the quickest peck on the lips before giggling, though they seemed to lack humility that most people might have.

Theodosia smiled and took her turn next, the bottle pointing at Lafayette. "Looks like Herc's got some competition.." she joked.

Lafayette smiled. It was just a little kiss, like in theater. He knew Herc wouldn't mind. He moved forward a bit and pecked Theodosia's lips, making her blush brightly.

Kissing one of her friends was one thing, but Lafayette was first off, gorgeous from head to toe, second, he'd been complimenting them all night, and third, he treated it so casually that it surprised her. Her face was bright red as Lafayette moved back into his place.

Aaron took his turn next, spinning the bottle and watching as it pointed at Frances. "Oh, geez," he teased.

"Oh, shut up." She leaned towards him and pecked his lips. "You should consider yourself lucky."

"Were you Theodosia, I would."

Lafayette smiled and took his turn, the bottle pointing at Martha. He gave her a quick peck and let Frances take her turn.

She landed on Martha and their kiss was so quick, it almost looked choreographed.

Then, Martha spun the bottle as if she hadn't just had a turn, Frances stopping it.

"Why don't we make this game more interesting? Little pecks are so boring. Three second kisses or you can let everyone know that you're a wimp."

"Frankie, you're so mean," Theodosia muttered.

"But I'm in," Martha shrugged.

"I don't see why not," Lafayette agreed.

Theodosia and Aaron agreed after another minute and Frances let Martha spin the bottle again.

"Thank you." She span it and it pointed at Lafayette, making her blush for the same reasons Theodosia had done the same.

Lafayette was hardly embarrassed by the game. "Would you mind if I kissed you?"

"No, go ahead." Still, she blushed more as Lafayette did just that and returned the kiss.

"Does anyone else feel awkward watching this?.." Frances asked as Lafayette sat back down.

"I feel fine with this," Martha sighed dreamily.

Theodosia spun next, landing on Lafayette, but before he could ask, she shook her head and spoke. "I'd prefer not to. It's not you, I'm just being awkward.."

"That's fine," Lafayette nodded.

Aaron took his turn next, the bottle pointing right at Theodosia. He turned to her and smiled softly. "May I?.."

She nodded and leaned towards him, blushing brightly as they kissed. It wasn't just a little peck, it was a full on kiss. She may have been shy about affection, but there was no one she'd rather be kissing than Aaron. He was so sweet and caring. When he pulled away, she was left in a state of shock, unused to such soft affection. In fact, she stayed in that state until Lafayette took his turn and landed on Aaron.

"Don't worry, it's just a little kiss," Lafayette assured him as he leaned towards him and kissed him.

Aaron blushed and returned the kiss, blushing just as brightly as Theodosia was. Lafayette was a good kisser and he knew it.

He smiled as he pulled away and turned to Frances. "Your turn."

She span the bottle and grinned as she landed on Lafayette, being the last person to test his kissing abilities. Unlike the others, though, she was the one who leaned towards him. She sat on her knees in front of him and grabbed his collar, pulling him into a kiss. It was a bit rougher than the rest of the game, but she still couldn't help but blush at Lafayette's abilities. "Like I said, all of the good guys are gay or taken," she said as she got back into her seat.

"You didn't have to torture poor Laf!" Martha said.

"I didn't torture him, I blessed him."

Theodosia rolled her eyes. "Maybe we should play something else... Or get some sleep? We do have school tomorrow and it's almost one in the morning."

They all agreed and changed into their pajamas, the girls doing so in Theodosia's room and Lafayette changing in a bathroom. Aaron decided to wait, for the time being.

Martha and Frances slept in the guest room and Lafayette volunteered to take the couch, Rosie curling up on his stomach under the blanket that Theodosia let him borrow.

After changing, Aaron slept on a folding bed in Theodosia's room beside her, Thor sleeping in Theodosia's bed and CC sleeping with Aaron. For the first time that night, the house was quiet.

And it stayed that way in the morning for a while as Aaron woke up, making sure to do so before everybody else, and went to the kitchen, making breakfast for everybody.

Lafayette was awake right after him, stretching as he joined him and helped him cook.

"Thanks."

"No problem. You know, it's not good to bind your chest as long as you did."

He looked up at him, eyes wide with shock. "What?"

"I accidentally peeked into your bag. It was beside mine and yours fell over and opened. I don't care or anything."

"Right.." He looked back at the food and finished it, helping Lafayette put it on plates for the girls.

As they did that, Martha came into the kitchen, seemingly troubled. "Laf, can I borrow you for a second?"

"Of course."

She led him to the bathroom, to a crying Frances. Frances Kinloch, the girl who embodied a less evil Heather Chandler was crying like a lost child. And it didn't take a genius to see why.

Meghan Trainor is the latest celebrity to share their hilarious post-wisdom teeth removal antics.

The “All About That Bass” singer, 25, shared a several videos of herself after getting her wisdom teeth out, explaining on Instagram that she had originally planned on only having one tooth removed — but her doctor said that “they all had to go.”

“I was initially going to just take one wisdom tooth out. The dentist said they all had to go,” Trainor wrote in the caption of her post. “Wasn’t emotionally or mentally prepared but sure got some great content

.”

And great content it is, indeed.

One video was filmed as a message for her manager, Tommy Bruce — “who literally has my whole heart,” Trainor added in her caption.

“Is this for Tommy?” Trainor asks in the video, with cotton in her mouth and a wrap around her head.

View this post on Instagram I was initially going to just take one wisdom tooth out. The dentist said they all had to go. Wasn’t emotionally or mentally prepared but sure got some great content

“I love you so much,” she continued emotionally, adding, “I, like, can’t cry, because it hurts, but I love you so much.”

Other videos shared by Trainor include footage from the car ride home, in which the star tries to sing along to her song “Working On It” featuring Sasha Sloan and Lennon Stella. In another, the singer appears to be sleeping before zooming in on a fellow passenger in the back seat and then seeming to say “I regret.”

On her TikTok, Trainor posted a video of herself dancing to “Purple Hat” by Sofi Tukker — but revealed to her fans that she didn’t have any memory of creating it.

“Guys, I don’t remember filming that TikTok at all,” Trainor said on her Instagram Stories on Tuesday. “But I’m obsessed with that song, and Sofi Tukker did a duet and I’m freaking out! I love you, I love ‘Purple Hat’!”

The singer then showed off the duo’s TikTok on her Instagram Stories, showing the German-American pair imitating Trainor’s original.

Trainor’s wisdom teeth procedure isn’t her first surgery.

The “Dear Future Husband” underwent surgery for a severely hemorrhaged vocal cord in 2015, causing her to have to cancel her tour at the time, and then had another vocal cord procedure in 2017.

Last year, Trainor opened up to PEOPLE about some lifestyle changes she’s made since the surgeries, saying that she stopped drinking alcohol and started exercising more often.

“It really shocks you and puts you in place. I stopped drinking — I know it hurts your cords. I don’t ever smoke anything, I drink a lot of water and I started eating healthier and working out more,” the Grammy winner said. “Now mentally and physically, it’s proven to work, so I’m gonna keep doing that.”

K19 Hangar 18

                                  Aliens or something, I don’t know

General notes

          I always remember that this movie is K19 because it’s Hangar 18 and that for some reason strikes me as mildly funny. From the title I expected it to be about airplanes, but it’s actually about spaceships. Made in 1980, starring people from things. Nothing really to note about the episode. Everyone’s here for the whole thing this time, so let’s get a-rollin’.

 Prologue

Joel pops up from under the desk sounding like he hit his head.

No real intro this time, no Mads. Joel just tells us the name of the movie and we go straight into Movie Sign. Maybe they were pressed for time this week.

 Movie pt. 1

I can’t tell when the guys get into the theater because the version I’m watching is such bad quality. Any black backgrounds make it impossible to see the guys. Later on they started putting a slight filter on the movies to make the silhouettes stand out better.

At 3:22, Joel asks why made-for-TV movies always look different than normal movies. Tom informs him, correctly, that Hangar 18 was shown in theaters. Why is that, actually? It is related to how they’re shot? There’s even a difference in look between different types of TV shows, so I assume that’s why. Does anyone want to inform both me and 1989 Joel?

When the movie astronauts are checking switches and things on the space shuttle at 5:39, Crow asks Joel if he remembered to check their switches and things. Joel doesn’t answer. Several seconds later at 5:47, Servo asks him the same thing, and he says no. Servo seems slightly distressed but lets it be.

Crow’s comment about the movie satellite makes Tom/Josh laugh at 7:26.

Joel messes with the on-screen controls at 7:43, but again, you can barely see him.

Something about Crow’s incredulous tone at 9:10 is really funny.

When you can finally see them, Joel and bots look like they’re sitting closer together than usual.

At 9:54, Joel makes a joke about prune-flavored Tang, and Josh laughs mockingly at it.

So far this whole movie has been half black screens. VHS movie played on UHF TV x old VHS recording + YouTube upload = hard to see.

76° at 6:13, when the time and temperature come up at 12:46. Looks like the Twin Cities are making their way toward summer.

Tom calls commercial at 13:25, Jeopardy-style, and Joel commands it more forcefully at 13:31. They don’t fade out until 13:38, though.

Joel reads the setting caption at 13:47, and Crows remarks a bit petulantly that he can read.

Holy crap, those are big lights on that police car. Also, why does this guy have such a strong Southern accent when they’re in Arizona? And I’m already sick of these captions.

As they leave the theater, Crow says he wants a soda, as if that’s the reason they’re leaving. Servo says he wants some saltines.

 Host Segment 1

 Crow’s wiggly fidgeting is cute. He’s such a little kid in the first few seasons.

Joel tells Crow he’ll need to borrow some of his RAM chips later to increase computing power for some other part of the ship. He doesn’t explain which, but maybe it would be common knowledge for Crow. Apparently, a dangerous meteor shower that could puncture holes in the ship is heading their way, and somehow the extra RAM chips with help with that? Maybe he can use it to increase the ship’s shields (which may or may not exist), or maybe he needs it to calculate a course away from the meteors or something. By the way, is it still called a meteor shower if it’s in space?

The bots have been really into irritating Joel in the past few episodes, and the trend continues here with Crow asking “Why?” and “So?” to everything Joel says. At first he seems sincere, but it quickly becomes clear that he just wants a reaction. It’s not clear if Joel catches on, but either way, he continues patiently explaining.

I love it whenever the bots cuddle up to Joel. Crow seems to know it’s cute and is using to his advantage.

Joel mentions that if he dies from lack of oxygen, the bots with have no human to play Parcheesi with, and implies that always ends badly. Having seen how the bots get along when Joel’s not around, I can imagine how that goes.

Mid-morning pleasure stimulation? Okay…I mean, I’m sure that’s not weird but it sounds weird.

Crow finishes off the whole thing with the classic “Daddy, what’s Vietnam?” and laughs, telling Joel to lighten up. Joel does not think it’s funny and finally snaps. Joel’s interesting; he’s almost impossible to rile, but once riled, he’s got something of a temper. You can see it in segments like his attempted barbershop/soda fountain in Giant Gila Monster [402] and the end of Castle of Fu Manchu [323]. Here he actually tells Crow to go get his belt! I can’t tell if he’s really going to use it on Crow or if he’s just playing along with Crow’s game by being the angry dad. Hope it’s the latter.

Similarly, I can’t tell if Crow’s reaction is real or if he’s still just in little kid mode. Again, I hope the latter is true.

 Movie pt. 2

Crow is making sounds of pain as they come into the theater. Joel tells him to quiet down and Tom teases him and laughs about the ordeal. I guess he really did use the belt. That’s the not the right way to discipline your robot children, Joel.

He also seems to be fixing Crow’s arms or something. They are kinda flimsy.

At 29:57, Crow says something about a “safety seal” and Servo barks like a sea lion. Just made me laugh.

Joel says when he was in 4th grade, he had the same kind of biohazard suit from the movie at 30:31. I’d doubt it, but it’s not impossible, especially given that a) Joel’s weird and b) this show takes place in a version of reality where satellites, robots, and mad science are a pretty casual affair. So who knows? But Joel also says it didn’t have the big mask, so he might have just been talking about a regular raincoat. (Or maybe it was a joke, because riffing. But that’s no fun.)

30: 56- I love Crow’s straightforward approach to things, hahaha.

At 31:09, they’re talking about Meatloaf (the singer) and Crow mentions he likes ketchup on his meatloaf. It’s not related to the joke, but it makes me imagine tiny baby KTMA Crow trying to eat meatloaf at the table with his dysfunctional little arms, which is oddly adorable.

The aliens really do look like Uncle Fester…when the guys sing their version of the Addams Family song (at 36:43), you can hear all three of them snapping (well, at least two). The bots must be able to generate snapping noises.

At 39:20, Joel mentions “Joe Namath Netted Slingshot Briefs”, which become a running comment throughout the rest of the series, especially the Joel era. I’m not getting a picture for this one; I think the BVDs picture from the last entry was enough trauma for all of us.

Wow, mentions of Jackie Coogan and Tor Johnson back to back at 39:55. Little did they know then how many opportunities they would have to talk about Tor Johnson (so many episodes, including The Unearthly [320], Bride of the Monster [423], and The Beast of Yucca Flats [621]). By the time they got to Jackie Coogan (The Space Children [906]), though, none of these original three were there. Here’s a picture of Jackie Coogan for no reason.

Now this airport guy has like a half-Boston, half-Southern accent. Though it is in the southern half of the country, Arizona is not really The South, filmmakers.

At 44:49, Tom goes on making fun of the possibly-crazy airport guy for so long Crow mutters that Joel spanked the wrong bot. That prompts Servo to ask him how his “bot” is; Crow doesn’t respond. 

Crow makes a zing! joke at 45:22, and Joel tells him to “take the laugh” like Dr. F told Larry in the previous episode. Crow says it hurts when he laughs, which makes me wonder how badly Joel spanked him with that belt. Oof. Tom also mentions that load pan-emptying will hurt later. The more I hear about load pans, the more I don’t want to know the details.

As they leave the theater, Crow says he need to get a pillow for some unspecified part of him.

Host Segment 2

Joel attaches what he calls a coupling device to Crow’s head so they can look through his memory and decide what’s worth keeping.

The first memory in the list is “On”. I’m not totally sure what that means, but I’m assuming it’s a necessary function. Maybe it’s the code that allows him to turn on?

Crow knows how to play Heart and Soul? I’d like to see that.

Nobody wants to go through “load pan training” again. My earlier sentiment about load pans has not changed. I would also like to see Tom and Crow’s bunk beds. What do you think the membrane that Crow mentions is? Apparently it’s less pleasant than load pans.

Nobody wants to keep the King Family specials.

They don’t feel like keeping a bunch of Highlights magazines, STP commercials with Mario Andretti, every episode of Punky Brewster, Lyle Waggoner’s penile implant show (???), Joe Something-or-Other’s business school (I wonder if that’s a local thing), Robert Vaughn’s Helsinki Formula, Aaron Gray’s cellulite show, or George Hamilton’s skin care hour. They do, however, want to keep a still of that one Farah Fawcett poster. I won’t bother to put a picture of that here because you’ve probably already seen it.

Joel smiles when Crow makes his buzzer noises.

He asks Crow where he picked up these weird infomercials, and Crow tells him he fell asleep while watching TV23 one night. It sounds like the Brains thought their channel played too many infomercials.

Movie pt. 3

I guess stunt driving isn’t part of the training to become a government agent. Also looks like their car was a Pinto.

The Apache Plaza Joel mentions at 58:03 was local mall in St. Anthony that was damaged by a tornado and then snowmelt. River Place is another spot in Minneapolis.

At 58:43, Crow notes that aliens have nipples like Joel does, as a human. Joel says his are a little more ”pouty.” I don’t know what that means, but ew.

Ah, thank you, movie, for cutting away instead of showing them cutting into the alien, proving once again that you are better than City on Fire. But you can really stop telling us where we are every single time we change locations. If the time is important, fine, put that, but if you’re just moving between places we’ve already been several times, you don’t need to tell us again.

Time and temp pop up again at 1:02:09, 75° at 7:15.

Tom calls commercial at 1:03:12.

Crow makes a good point at 1:05:44- why did it take them so long to even try to figure out where the government was hiding the ship?

Hey, a swear bleep at 1:08:45. The guys react to it, obviously knowing they would have to cut it out for the episode. Servo proceeds to make some “ship” jokes.

You know, these government agents would be a lot less conspicuous if didn’t wear suits everywhere. Also, even if the brakes don’t work, wouldn’t the car, you know, slow down if he stopped pressing the gas? Cars don’t just maintain momentum forever even if they can’t stop. And I’m already predicting this whole petroleum plant thing is going to explode in firey ball of death, killing the new set of G-men, while the astronauts get away.

Wow, Crow makes the same guess at 1:11:28.

Well, I was sort of right. Crow was more right than I was.

Crow’s little “c’mon, c’mon” as they leave the theater is adorable.

 Host Segment 3

They’ve hooked Crow up to the coupling device again, and take a look at his first memory ever.

For some reason the memory isn’t from Crow’s point of view…Anyway, Joel sings a song while finishing Crow up, then whacks him lightly to turn him on. His first sound is a baby cry until Joel whacks him again. Joel tells him name and he asks why, and Joel tells him it stands for “Cybernetic Remotely Operated Woman.”

Current Crow is very surprised to find out he’s a woman, but seems to get over it very quickly.

Joel tells him he’s actually a hermaphrobot because he ran out of parts. Why would running out of parts mean that he had both- you know what, never mind. 

I guess being a woman or hermaphrobot turns Crow into a stressed mother.

But it’s actually a joke anyway ha ha ha, Joel made a fake memory to tease him. Joel tells him that he only made him in the first place so he could play that joke on him in the future. Harsh, man. Joel’s kind of a big jerk in this episode.

Movie pt. 4

 Hey, it’s the plot-relevant radio station, like Invention Exchange from Giant Gila Monster [402].

Crow makes another good point- will the people inside the spaceship survive? It didn’t get burnt up on re-entry when it landed, so maybe they will. OoooOOOOOoooo mystery….

At 1:34:31, Crow also makes a call-back to City on Fire [K16].

Oh, they did survive. Did the guys preview this movie, or are they just that eerily smart? Maybe one of them had seen it before in the past?

Conclusion

This segment is very short, just the guys mentioning that the fan club is almost up to 1,000 members, and showing off the fabulous demon dog that 1,000th member can win. They mention it’s from the opening credits. Demon dogs will show up again in the next season in The Robot vs. the Aztec Mummy [102].

Is Crow carrying something over his shoulder? I can’t tell what it is.

The credits cut off in this recording, so hopefully there was nothing terribly interesting or new.

Thoughts on the Movie

          Forgive me the unkindness, but his movie is full of mostly rather ugly people. And Darren McGavin looks like the general from The Iron Giant, and/or Tommy Lee Jones. Which makes sense because the general from the Iron Giant looks like Tommy Lee Jones. Beyond that, I don’t know how I feel about this one. It’s really not that bad, it’s just sort of dumb. I feel like it would have made a more interesting television series than a movie. It has some good moments, but it felt like it was trying to tell two different stories. The longer the movie went on, the more it seemed to lose its focus. On the other hand, I actually cared some when Lou died, which is more than I can say for a lot of movies, even non-MSTed ones. Ending was kinda stupid, though.

          The other main thing that kept bothering me was why the government kept letting the astronauts poke around and potentially muck up the their big cover-up. Why do they even let them out of D.C. or Houston or wherever they were? (I really should remember because of the excessive captioning.) Can’t the Feds just keep them where they are until they’re done lying about the U.F.O.? I mean, that doesn’t sound legal, but neither does tampering with and lying about important scientific information to keep people happy until the election, and they’re already doing that. Half the plot could have been avoided if they’d just been smart enough to stop Bancroft and Price from running around. I guess that’s why they didn’t. But that’s not a good enough reason to suspend my disbelief on that point.  

          Oh yeah, and then it gets into the tired old sci-fi trope of the aliens who are almost exactly like humans and trying to explain with actual science. I don’t have any real problem with human aliens in fiction (Superman, for example, has never bugged me), but when they try to pretend like it makes any sense, that’s where they always lose me. The whole “humans are descended from them” just doesn’t work for me. If the two species were able to breed, wouldn’t they have needed to be very similar to begin with? Then that brings us back to the parallel evolution thing, which makes very little sense in an attempt at hard sci-fi. So yeah, not quite a bad movie, just a mediocre one. It would probably make good material for a modern riff.

Review

          This one was alright. It seemed like they were a little distracted by a semi-watchable movie, so there wasn’t much riffing. I didn’t laugh a whole lot during this episode (favorite riff- Tom: Maybe they’re just a couple of yahoos from Arkansas.) The spots they did riff had a lot of energy, but they seemed to lose it as the movie went on. Maybe the movie wasn’t stupid or infuriating enough to keep them firing. That’s another good reason they wrote and practiced the riffing when they moved on to the wonderful world of cable.

           Not related to the review, but I have a question for my six or seven readers. I mentioned a lot more of my thoughts on the movie in the notes this time- is that annoying, or do you prefer it that way? I got back and forth about whether I should include that there. On the one hand, it’s part of the experience of watching and episode. On the other hand, it’s not really the purpose of this guide. I’ll do whatever works better for you guys, so let me know if you have a preference. Thanks!
