"I’m not used to happy. I tend to be neurotic... You calm me down. You make me feel... peaceful and um, even needed. You are so beautiful.”

Thanks for taking me to the moon MoonPie.

Doey's 2/3 angsty traumatized teen, I think he'd love MCR

#poppy playtime #poppy playtime chapter four #doey the doughman #pianosaurus #I like to think Pianosaurus would have been a fun jokey kind of guy. He could have been so fun but nooo 10 seconds of screentime #he lives on in my heart. he gets a boss battle TO ME. He's so fun to draw please whyyyyyyyyy #Orange hand is Matthew (responsible 15y/o) Red legs is Kevin ('problem child') and short Yellow is Jackie (the kid who fell into the vat)#Jackie is too young and from a happy family. he would not know MCR. Matthew and Kevin would have listened to The Black Parade album on loop #Ignore that Black Parade came out in 2006 and Hour of Joy was 1995- emo music transcends time #my art

I am going to be So Insufferable about this man in 2 days.

#pure vanilla cookie #cookie run kingdom #crk fanart #man. no joke I have been rewatching his trailer on loop #both of them #his magical girl transformation sequence is so pretty I cannot #the music!!! the music!!!!!!!!#the memories of two friends motif is so charming and I adore it but it isn’t His #it isn’t his the way the theme of the vanilla kingdom is because the two friends are defined by their time at school and by each other and #indirectly distantly both of them have been influenced by shadow milk cookie because they’re both scientists and students and shadow milk #is the original fount of knowledge right like their theme is based on their school and they both own it in their own ways but it isn’t #theirs like their own thing.#but pure vanilla cookie’s vanilla kingdom Is Solely His and it’s everything he’s worked for and everything he’s built and everything #he holds dear and I’m so happy to hear that theme renewed in his awakening #also man. truthless recluse……#the way his eyes are shining looking at his past and his hopes and dreams…..#the hope isn’t dead….. he’s still there…..#I am So Excited man.#in their own ways each of the ancients getting to their awakened state are stepping into the divinity once held by the beasts #and in turn doing so by overcoming the obstacles of immortality and existentialism that caused the beasts to turn in the first place

All of this time I've been keeping my mind on the running away

And for the first time, I think I'd consider the stay

Buddie: You Matter To Me

One of my favorite parts of Hadestown is the way Hermes slips so seamlessly between participant and narrator. The fact that he knows from the beginning how the story is going to go, but still plays his part, surrounded by people who don’t know they’re characters in a tragedy. And he plays his part well. Every night, he tells Orpheus, “You want to talk to her? Go on," and every night, he asks, “Just how far would you go for her?” Every night, Orpheus asks him, “ It’s not a trick?” and he tells him, “No, it’s a test.” And every night, when the cycle starts again, when his voice is so broken with grief that he can barely get the words out to tell the audience - the audience that he and no one else has known was there the whole time - “Don’t ask why, brother, don’t ask how he could have come so close. The song was written long ago, and that is how it goes,” when Eurydice appears - fresh-faced and alive, with no memory of what has just happened - to ask, “anybody got a match?” he wordlessly extends his matchbook to her, and lets the story start anew. Someone’s got to tell the tale, whether or not it turns out well.

And still - AND STILL - every night, at the very beginning, he says, “Maybe it will turn out this time, on the road to hell, on the railroad line.”

#it’s a sad song! it’s a sad song! it’s a tragedy! it’s a sad song! but we’re gonna sing it again!#this show fucks me UP #hadestown #hadestown broadway #orpheus and eurydice #hadestown hermes #tragedy #broadway musicals #musical theater #musical theatre #hadestown musical #hermes #storytelling #anais mitchell #also gonna tag this #time loop #because i think people who are interested in the idea of time loops in fiction owe it to themselves to watch/listen to hadestown #(i do think saying definitively ‘hadestown is a timeloop’ takes away some of the ambiguity that makes the story special. but like the vibes

"I’m not used to happy. I tend to be neurotic... You calm me down. You make me feel... peaceful and um, even needed. You are so beautiful.”

But it's not just the "You do matter to me" of it all.

It's the I could see the whole meaning of life in those sad eyes. Those beautiful brown sad cow eyes of Eddie's.

It's Buck's And I'll stay there as long as you'll let me, so afraid to be alone but also so afraid to be unwelcome .

It's the Simple and plain and not much to ask from somebody because they can't say I love you.

It's the you'll see. Because it's not always easy to believe you'll be loved anyway. It takes time, it takes action. Until one day it's undeniable, he responds "I know." and he means it.

It's the All of this time I've been keeping my mind on the running away- And for the first time, I think I'd consider the stay. Because no one else is saying it should be a choice between your kid and your best friend. No one else would expect you to hesitate, except he's not just your best friend and you don't know how to do anything without him. You're being pulled in half, all he's asking is for you to admit it.

It's the I hope someday, somebody wants to hold you for twenty minutes straight. They don't pull away, they don't look at your face and they don't try to kiss you. All they do is wrap you up in their arms and hold on tight without an ounce of selfishness to it. Except there is a hint of selfishness, they're so scared to let go. They don't get twenty minutes, it's raining, they're in the street, and Eddie has to leave. They're all awkward anticipation. The hug is the last thing in the checklist, the last seconds before goodbye, the last touch for who knows how long. Even after that there's this greed, this avarice to see the other for as long as they're allowed. A turned neck as Eddie walks, a waved hand reflected in the mirror, Buck's feet stuck as his eyes follow the truck until he can't see it anymore.
