starkid fans when they see Normal Man and his Barista Crush onscreen for 0.5 seconds:

If you guys liked the whole "Stephs flannel matches Peter's suspenders and bow tie" thing then this costuming detail is in tgwdlm gonna fuck you up.

When we get our first scene with Paul and Emma, the two are dressed in their respective main outfits. These are the ones people tend to associate with them.

But throughout the show, as they get closer and bond, their outfits become more and more similar. Pretty soon Emma's lost the apron

Then at the professor's house, Paul loses the jacket

and by the time McNamara is infected, Paul has his sleeves rolled up and Emma's bow tie has come undone.

At this point, the two are at their most aesthetically similar, and also the closest they've been the entire show. This is moments before the helicopter crash and their failed kiss. They remain this way for a good chunk of time...until Paul comes back

It's like some fast-paced foreshadowing. Emma remains in her changed state, the same as her character, but Paul is back to square one. He's wearing the same outfit he was when they met, and they no longer align. She doesn't know who he is anymore.

I don't know if this was intentional (and if it was, no one explained it to Jon) but it plays out so damn well.

HATCHETFEILD TRIO

Woah man NPMD made me actually lose it with hyperfixation so here’s the musical trio raghhh!!!!!

I was watching nightmare time for the first time while drawing these and I had to pause for a day to process jane’s a car because what the fuck guys

[man-down-in-hatchet-town]

Nerdy Prudes is so funny, it's like: Local prude Grace Chasity has one (1) sexual fantasy. Six dead, four injured, one driven insane.

[rysttle]

i havent drawn em before yet so im still figuring out how to but i saw this post from @strivia (hope it's ok to tag) and wanted to do a thing xD

Bonus paerhaps

[barkilphedros-hat]

In love with how the universal constant within the Hatchetfield saga is Paul just straight up not having a good time.

Yknow

[khruschevshoe]

Jon Matteson does not get enough credit for his physical acting skills. In the "Nerdy Prudes Must Die" number when he "levitates" and then crashes to the ground? And in "Let It Out"? He fucking SELLS the emotional impact of those scenes and I'm tired of pretending that he is not one of the best things to happen to modern Starkid. Mariah and Angela definitely deserve their due, but my man is KILLING IT OUT HERE

-Signed, a disgruntled fan who still holds that "Let It Out" was the best scene in The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals

“And he gives me his number. Very smooth.”

[closetnerd62]

The holy quintuplet of dynamics

[fangirls-just-want-to-have-fun]
