Past the point of no return....

...who deserves this?

The final threshold.

His life is now a prize that you must earn.

Angel of Music...

You've passed the point of no return ...

Yes, I'm back again with this cross-overrrr. I have still been spending my time listening to the soundtrack, and my current favourite has to be Down once more / Finale I have been obsessed with listening to the entire 15-minute segment on repeat.

Im going to tag @zu-is-here for more phantom content, but also because this was also inspired by the composition of this piece by zu!!

My favourite part of it, as you can see, is the reprise of Past the point of no return. The Phantom's cruel blackmail, Christine calling out for her angel and Raoul practically begging her to sacrifice him to save herself. It's so incredible, and I would recommend listening to it if you haven'ttttt. This is my favourite version!!

My worst anxiety regarding season three of Good Omens is that the ending will be lovely, but that it will pass too quickly.

I trust that it will be a happy ending; we know it will be. And I want to see that. But almost more than I want to see that, I want to see them breathe. I don't want "they kissed and made up and went off to their cottage and clinked glasses whilst watching the sunset and saying witty sappy things, and everyone sighed, satisfied." That's not too different from what we got at the end of season one, and it's lovely, but these two have been waiting so long.

so. long.

And I want the ending to be long enough that there's space for that "finally." I want there to be room for their emotions. I want them to giggle like teenagers, I want them to find stupid excuses to kiss each other, I want them to hold each other and cry, I want them to talk about the things they always stopped themselves from talking about, I want them to address the complexity of their feelings. I want there to be some recognition of the relief, and of the wounds that still ache. I want to see them slowly, slowly relax into security. I want them to tentatively reach for each other, each time fearing that they won't be there, and each time collapsing under the weight of their relief to find that they are.

I want to see them make plans for their future and let themselves be hopeful about it. I want to watch the reality of their happy ending sink in. I want to watch them heal.

You know what's really tragic about the character of Rudolf in Elisabeth das Musical? (Besides, y'know... Everything?)

That he's a LOT like Franz Joseph too, at least when he was his age.

They're both under the thumb of one parent, who doesn't allow them to express their own political view. They both feel like intrigue is ruining their lives, and wish they weren't in the restricting position they occupy. And most importantly: they both express a desire to be "soft", instead of the hard and emotionless leader they're drilled to be.

Why then, is there no song, not a single line, where either of them acknowledge that similarity? Elisabeth and Rudolf both sing about how similar they are, why can't Rudolf and FJ?

Because Rudolf doesn't know. How could he know that his own father went through the exact same pressure he is under.. when the pressure was successful in molding him? He never sees that softer side to him.

Franz Joseph might have chosen Elisabeth over his mother in the end, but he internalized her lessons and sees them as truth. He is hard, he is strict, and he doesn't know any other way to be. He doesn't see anything wrong with how he's treating his son. (And in his childhood, how Sophie raised him). He turned out fine, why should Rudolf be different?

So Rudolf had not one, but two parents who should have been able to relate to at least part of his despair. But both failed to be the parent they wished they had. And I don't know if it's better or worse that he never even knew how his father was similar to him, too.

I feel like a QSMP animatic to Home (Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros) would go really hard right now if it doesn't already exist . And by go hard I mean it'd be extremely painful and I'd pass away

he’s so heartbroken (we love him) 🙃

[ladybugkisses]

what would your hazbin hotel oc’s reaction be to sir pentious “death” more specifically the one I see with sir pentious in your art (sorry I don’t know her name)

she has future vision, she saw it coming a long time ago- chances are she already knew he'd go to heaven, too

so her reaction was pretty calm but still kinda sad, because even though she knew he'd be okay it also meant they'd be apart 😔 oh well,

her name is Kresta btw!

When Phantom was all sad in the beginning of “All I Ask of You (Reprise)” and was all like “but I gave you my music”… what a neurodivergent way to court someone. He’s like one of those funky little penguins that gift their lovers pebbles.

His pebble apparently wasn’t shiny enough.

From “pleasetakemypebble” to “I WILL KILL YOU WITH THIS PEBBLE BITCH”

Been listening to the Hamilton soundtrack again, and I can’t get over how perfect the tone of “That Would Be Enough” is for Sabine comforting Ezra after he finds out how long he’s been gone and how much he’s missed:

Look around, look around

At how lucky we are to be alive right now

Look around, look around

[…]

Look at where you are

Look at where you started

The fact that you're alive is a miracle

Just stay alive, that would be enough

[…]

Let this moment be the first chapter

Where you decide to stay

And I could be enough

And we could be enough

That would be enough
