I watched Phantom of the Opera the other day and had a grand epiphany about precisely who would do a cosplay of a disfigured theater nerd

Part 2 Part 3

#atla #avatar the last airbender #prince zuko #zuko #uncle iroh #phantom of the opera #poto #my art #eyestrain #ish... just in case #I feel like this has probably been done before #oh well!#I just think zuko deserves to play a pipe organ as loud as he can #ala the opening overture #get some of that stress out #preferably without strangling anyone #but nobody's perfect

I got. thoughts. about valens and voices in imperial roman history. but I also got a lot of thoughts about uhhhhhh choosing your brother for co ruling the Fratricide Foundation Story Empire. many thoughts about themistius' oration too

Brotherly Love, Themistius (trans. Peter Heather & David Moncur)

⭐ places I’m at! bsky / pixiv / pillowfort /cohost / cara.app / insta

#it's also the Incest-Cannibalism Empire but that's a discussion for a different blog #all of the heavy hitters were Incest Empires btw. that's a feature of Empire across all of time. not always Cannibalism tho. TRAGIC.#but rome specifically being the Fratricide&Stuprum Empire is funny AND makes parts of this speech feel. uh. UHHHHH.#feels like you're trying to overwrite history and while you succeeded ONCE the uncle-nephew antagonism with a body count #somehow feels worse????? feels worse. i dont like anything that happened to valentinian 2 #anyway. as a result: i personally will be including the bigamy accusations against valentinian into my belief system #stuprum babyyyyy! a requirement for every emperor! valens is lacking here so valentinian has to pick up the slack #valens will be giving me an opening to fire shots at figures in christianity i dislike which is honestly better than scandalous sex #later roman empire tag #komiks tag #brother emperors tag #IF. you missed my brother emperors posting. the head in hands thing here is meant to be a little bit offputting on account of #valentinian being valens' imperial maker. that's a life in your hands. overtures of fratricide. etc. you get the point #whatever other subtext you want to apply to it from the subtext spice cabinet. im not picky. this was a quick comic i did #to shake off the depression cobwebs lmao. eventually i'll style guide this era and do comics with more intentional thought later

Smacks season 2 ending of Ninjago with a whumping stick

Unironically Ninjago having a No One Mourns The Wicked moment after the Final Battle specifically about Garmadon.

(I mean obviously Garmadon survived still but the vast majority of Ninjago doesn’t know that. Plus since he’s been purified of the venom he actually looks normal again and not the menacing Oni who looks like a sentient Shadow.)

“Lady Irondragon exactly how dead is he?”

“Because there has been so much rumor and speculation. Let me tell you the whole story. According to the Celestial Clock the disintegration occurred at the thirteenth hour. The direct result of a blast of pure elemental energy aimed by a male child. Yes the Dark Lord Garmadon is Dead!”

Misako just has to go around announcing her husband’s supposed death while he’s off recovering secretly as the gang forges his new fake identity. So it’s just Misako visiting Ignacia and every other village being praised when she really doesn’t deserve it.

A veritable bouquet of Flowers pinned and woven through her hair because this is a time of peace and celebration now. Which many Fashion and Political columns will debate what she means by them? (It's the Kadōka of Ninjago who figure it out rather early on and those who knew Garmadon and Misako personally can be comfortable in their knowledge of such matters.)

Irises to symbolize Good News, Glad Tidings, and Loyalty (That Loyalty being to her Family not Ninjago itself as so many news publications and fashion magazines will argue)

Red Camellia to symbolize Perishing with Grace as a Warrior of such strength deserves and Being in Love (He didn't perish with Grace though did he? And no one knows how in love they were? Except a scant long lost few.)

White Poppy to Rejoice for the Dark Lord is dead and gone ( Rejoice for the Prophecy is finally over and no one died except for Him and what a fortunate event after all)

Gardenia to represent a Secret Love that she'll carry to the grave (No one can know of such matters now and who's to say the secret love is romantic? But one of Familial love.)

She has to bear the news and she will because Lloyd is too busy recovering himself while at the same time refusing to leave his father's bedside.

It’s also when she finally gets to hear the full hatred and dislike of her husband as the villagers of Ignacia cheer that the menace who kidnapped their favored daughter Nya is dead and caused such grief to their beloved blacksmith Kai.

The citizens of Ignacia are just a parallel to Munchkin Land just flat out belting their shared hatred and grief about this man and what he did to their village and them. The Skulkin raids as well and those Gods Awful Serpentine.

Orange Lilies are being shaken and thrown at the announcement of his death by seemingly the entirety of Ignacia. (They symbolize their hatred for what he did to Kai and Nya alongside their revenge finally being fulfilled.)

Of course there are some Red Spider Lilies in those shaking hands Veterans of the serpentine war long lost their prime mourning an old friend and ally long turned monstrous. (Never to meet again amidst their lost memories.)

That's not getting into those Black Rice Lilies or Fritillaria camschatcensis being tended to by the Skulkin and the other villainous factions (With a certain Banished Dark Sorcerer Cursing the loss of his ex. He was Clouse's first Love.)

Their Giant Garmadon effigy is very scarily detailed and even accounted for his newly gained pair of arms. No doubt a result of one of Kai’s furious letters at the time about his sister’s abductions and his angered sketches.

I like to imagine Ninjago City's reaction is more on par with this animatic

youtube

Some Character reactions that could be their own one shots

Chen doesn't lose much sleep once his former student's death has been confirmed. It just means the tournament can proceed even earlier.

Krux or rather Dr.Sanders-Saunders feels some amount of pity it didn't take him long to figure out the Youth or rather the Male Child was Garmadon's own flesh and blood.

Maya and Ray even bound to that hidden workshop listening to the radio and TV that serves as their one link to the outside world. Can only hold each other in comfort for the passing of one of their beloved friend's passing and can only imagine Misako's anguish.

The live broadcast of Ignacia's celebration and singing of his passing is even more painful for Ray because that was his best friend.

Harumi is fuming internally despite her outward Cheerfulness because HOW DARE THEY CELEBRATE HER SAVIOR'S PASSING?!?!!?!? IT'S NOT FAIR AT ALL! (She had to be dragged away from the Emperor and Empress's side during the televised speech of celebration.)

#ngl I’ve been listening to the wicked soundtrack a lot recently #and then like the iterations of it too #like the og broadway recording and stuff #its wild and it's arguably one of my favorite broadway openings aside from the Phantom of the opera's overture #where you get to see the opera house restored from being dusty and decrepit into its peak form #Youtube #I’m also mixing a bit of movie canon to this #Not me also researching flower meanings specifically Hanakotoba #which is the Japanese Language of Flowers #That's right I fucking did #my autistic ass did in fact #because I love learning about flower languages and I took a floral design class in tenth grade.#also this is kind of a writing experiment for me #i know also my prose is rather experimental too and hope it isn't too jarring to read or look at #I just wrote it off the cuff aside from learning those flower meanings #IDK what to title this #mostie01 mumbles #mostie01 writes #My writing #fanfic #at least sorta fanfic? more like Fanfic musings or Fan writing exercises?#garmsako #misako ninjago #misako montgomery garmadon #misako garmadon #ninjago #Lord Garmadon #garmadon #sensei garmadon #Ignacia

"A rock opera about jesus written by andrew lloyd webber, the guy who did the cats musical" is an insane concept on paper but unfortunately it 100% absolutely fucking slaps

#the opening guitar riff of the overture? the bass line of heaven on their minds? SO GOOD #big fan of the version with tim minchin as judas #where it sets it during an occupy wall street type protest #and the themes of ideological purity vs. activism burnout and self care are at the fore and it really works #jesus christ superstar #andrew lloyd webber #mood

I hate Raoul as a character. Don’t bother trying to change my mind, it’s been made up ever since I first listened to Phantom of the Opera. Nobody will ever make me like that man.

That said, All I Ask of You is beautiful, and probably one of the sweetest love songs to come from a musical. All the things Raoul promises Christine are things that I would ask from a husband; Be my safe space. Comfort me. Ease my fears. Protect me. Love me.

It’s just so soft and so beautiful. I think it deserves so much more appreciation than I used to give it, regardless of my personal opinion on Raoul.

#I love this song so much. It’s second only to the overture in my book.#Anyways if anybody wants to hear me rant about Raoul my askbox is open #crow’s cawing #Phantom of the opera #all i ask of you
