How are we feeling about the Staff Only page???

a long time ago, i came up with a theory about how welcome home the show never actually existed. the gist of it is that there was a playfellow workshop once, and there was Extensive production work done for welcome home, but for whatever reason - interpersonal conflict, trouble with the studio or executives, both, etc. - it never made it to the air. think "paranoia agent episode 10." BUT its will to exist (or at the very least, wally's will to exist) was so strong that it manifested itself into reality anyway, even if in an incomplete form. at the time, i passed it off as a crack theory, something i came up with in the throes of hiatus brain. but when i was looking through the site again today, it was all i could think about.

in this context, welcome home is an aberration, yeah? it is specifically an Unwelcome change, and i think it's safe to say that the WHRP team knows this - at least, the ones we've seen breaking character. they can barely hold back their disgust at having to handle these materials, because they know on some base instinctual level that These Should Not Be Here, that they should not exist, despite everything else telling them that welcome home was a perfectly normal, universally beloved children's program.

is this a justified reaction on the part of the WHRP team? technically, they aren't wrong, but it doesn't seem that the neighbors are taking advantage or even aware of the fact that they're a collective anomaly. even wally seems more plainly desperate for connection rather than trying to hide an ulterior motive (although it remains to be seen if he's aware of how the WHRP team and their collaborators are being affected, or exactly How unwilling he is to accept that he's dealing with a very different audience than he was 50-ish years ago. he seems very insistent than we've seen him before.) many questions!

of course, it could also be that welcome home did air and was just subjected to some kind of antimemetic fuckery when/after it was cancelled, but that's not what the crack theory is about now is it.

(For anyone the last post may have caused concern for, I do NOT post religious content, but "9-1-1" does involve religious themes related to its characters (i.e., Bobby is a practicing Christian/Catholic) and it's interesting to analyze those themes in the show.

That's all 😘)

Bookworm Will Review 2024 (#29)

Title: 'The Honeys'

Author: Ryan La Sala

Rating: 3.5 / 5

Review: (MINOR SPOILERS)

I seem to always have (fictional) beef with Ryan and its only because of what he puts his readers through LOL This one I think creeped me out more than BEHOLDER in terms of aesthetics.

I am not a camper and I only enjoy going outside when its autumn and all the bugs are hibernating. However I do enjoy a good cottage core themed experience. I would like to preface this by saying that the body horror can be a bit much, so if you're easily nauseous, just be warned.

We are thrusted RIGHT into the story as we watch Mars' sister try and kill them. A gripping conflict that shook a mansion! Having known their sister better than the reader, we follow Mars as they retrace their sister's steps back to a summer camp, Aspen, where things seemingly went horribly wrong. Both have trauma from their time and Mars is convinced the camp itself is hiding the truth of why/how became who she became. Aspen is a very gender binary specific organization which leaves Mars, who is genderqueer, feeling isolated. A familiar feeling.

However it lends the capability to dig deep into Aspen and the Honeys. A make-shift sorority comprised of all female campers who are always linked to one another, including Mars' now deceased sister.

While we do get some really interesting moments of horror, we also get this journey of 'finding your place' which felt a bit odd at first because Mars is constantly proud of being who they are. But then it clicked. Mars receives validation (can't think of a better word) in a way once the horrors and forces of nature reveal themselves.

It ends a bit open-ended because we see Mars whose accepted a new role in the camp that serves a literal higher power, but leaves a few questions. Fingers crossed for a sequel? I know I'd love to see more Wyatt personally.

Overall, REALLY creative and I can't wait for the movie adaptation!

hey dumbfuck, even if you're blocked you still clog the tags with spam to the point nothing will load in to searches people are looking for. maybe don't be a selfish cunt. no wonder no one wants to rp with you. you're not dishing out 'truths' you're just whining you can't be a cunt to people and them to want to interact with you. the irony that you don't see you're the actual karen here lmfaooo. projecting right what's in the mirror.

The fact that you're in my inbox triggered and called my OPINIONS, TRUTHS tells me, that YOU just admitted some guilt dearie. And thus means I'm doing my fucking job. So, don't mind me while I sit here and listen to you bitch to someone who gives a damn about your sissy whiny bitchy moany ass. Or do please come back and complain some more.

FYI the definition of Karen: "Karen is a term used as slang typically for a middle-class white American woman who is perceived as entitled or excessively demanding beyond the scope of what is considered to be normal behavior and decorum."

Sorry for mentally ill thoughts this evening but I've always wondered how this is going to end. To me, welcome home has been a story about changing. And because of a certain music artist's album and WHs popularity being around the same time, I can't let go of my interpretation of what change will look like at the end of this project. (1/?)

(2/?) I've always found what characters a fandom gets attached to QUICKLY to be a marker of what a story is going to do with these characters and what metatexually that is gonna mean for the story...

Let's start with the big one: Wally himself. THIS GUY HAS SO many interpretations! He is simultaneously the most dangerous and fascinating character out of all of them. To analyze him (and some of the neighbors I'll talk about) I used tarot cards, btw I'm @pretty-in-possible but this is my reblog alt

Wally was Judgement which is intresting because its definition includes

When The judgement is in the upright position, it represents the realization of one's calling, realistic thinking and gaining a deep understanding of life through self-examination.

(3/?) When reversed, it can represent refusal of self-examination and growth, self-doubt, regret, and blame. In my eyes, change and (what I think will happen to the puppets) transformation is only possible with that kind of thought. Which, coupled with your own analysis of wally and home spells as disaster. Whats particularly affecting MY brainworms is Barnaby. His card is the Magician: The Magician is an artisan and the ideas person.  It is a very action oriented card. It represents learning and using knowledge in creative and unorthodox ways, and seizing the day by displaying resourcefulness. Barnaby is definitely an open-minded person just with his behavior shown through just visuals.

(4/?) I am also invested in his pipe which I know just has bubbles in it, but it adds to this stoner read to his character that *I* see??? There is just something about him that tells me he will have the easiest time with this Existential crisis as to him (based of the tarot reading) this knowledge is incredibly freeing, cuz it would just mean there is More in the World to Discover. In my experience reading past life regression therapy testimonies, I've heard of how some people encounter this place in the afterlife people under hypnosis describe as a soul cleansing, a place where gem-colored rays of light shine through every inch of your soul, cleansing your spirit of the trauma it had experienced during your last lifetime. And I feel like Barnaby will experience those same feelings (NOT THE SAME PROCESS). (I might ramble more about this later, in ask box or in dms if thats okkkk)

my sincerest apologies for sitting so long on this one, i wanted to make sure i had time to really, like. sit down and Process it. and then shortly after i started writing this response i got food poisoning so. lol.

because of of how in-depth this ask gets, i wouldn't feel right neglecting any part of it, so i'm just gonna write down my thoughts bullet by bullet as i go through this. under the cut for convenience:

how welcome home is going to end .... obviously, i cannot offer anything conclusive right now (if i can offer anything at all) given how early we are, but i have always had the vague impression that whatever the ending of this story is, we as the audience may never be able to see all of it. it feels like so much has been given to us already. i assume we will be given much more, regardless of how willing to give or receive anyone involved is. we owe it to our neighbors to let them decide which parts to give and which to keep, at the end of the day. i think that's the best way i can phrase it. but as always, only time will tell.

agree about Change likely being a big part of welcome home, whichever form it takes.

I WOULD VERY MUCH LIKE TO KNOW THE NAME OF THIS ARTIST. i am Dreadfully unfamiliar with a lot of 70s musicians outside of the biggest names - my first thought was either connie converse or daniel johnston, but iirc most of converse's music was recorded in the 50s-60s and johnston only started recording music in the late 70s. i don't know if bruce haack was ever super popular back when he was actually making music.

the idea of which characters fandom gets attached to being indicative of what canon does with them...? i'm not so sure about this one, honestly. fandom can get attached to a stale piece of toast that shows up for a single scene if so desired (which, for the record, isn't a bad thing.) of course, i say that based off of my own experiences, but fan reception has never really been a Factor in speculation for me either way.

calling wally dangerous doesn't feel inaccurate, but i think it's more like. i do not think he is inherently dangerous but he absolutely has the Capacity to do dangerous things. i think it is interesting that despite this (or perhaps because of it?) he appears to be more vulnerable with us than he Ever was with the other neighbors? but a.) that may not be saying much and b.) it is Also largely rooted in speculation + the fact that home and the audience are currently the Only two entities wally has been seen interacting with directly, as opposed to his interactions/relationships with other neighbors that have so far only been briefly described by the WHRP or showcased in brief snippets of concept art.

grinning so so so wide at the judgement/inverted judgement descriptions. i wish i had more to say but i'm having a hard time coming up with something that isn't just pointing to the inverted judgement description and going "yeah that's almost Exactly what i'm getting from wally so far."

again, agree about the possibility of Change playing some kind of role here, eventually - more specifically the fear of change even when it may prove to be beneficial, whether that be on wally's part or the neighbors' or the WHRP's or the staff's or the audience's or even the very setting of home itself. i imagine some grotesque hodgepodge of all of the above. something something points to that post i reblogged about sitcoms as horror.

context for the aforementioned wally and home analysis for anyone reading: 1, 2, 3

BARNABY, HUH... for the record my personal hc regarding his pipe is that whatever's in it changes depending on what would be the funniest answer at any given moment. if tobacco is funnier, then it's tobacco. if bubbles are funnier, then it's bubbles. looney tunes logic.

on a more serious note: i'm a little worried i won't have much to say about barnaby that i haven't said already! i think it may be too early to discern the Specifics of his personality from website art/descriptions alone but i do get the distinct impression that he's meant to be a lot more down to earth than wally, which of course is an interesting contrast to the nature of wally's whole [gestures vaguely] Everything. from this, i think it is Reasonable to assume that he's also a lot better at rolling with the punches as well, although i never did consider the possibility that learning about The Bullshit would be liberating for him, in a sense - i don't know about it being a cleansing experience, unless you count the recontextualization of things that didn't previously make sense as a sort of cleansing in itself, in which case it could absolutely be that. something about the parallels to cosmic horror... the relationship between the Fear of change and the Catharsis of change...

oh, but wouldn't this also put him at odds with wally, who seems to be on the Exact Opposite End Of The Spectrum, even when they understand each other like no other? Much To Think About... very exciting potential for Conflict there.

i'm cool with whichever method works best for you if you wanna talk more in the future! my dms are open too lol.

THE END 🩷

[lovedrruunk]

'Girl next door જ⁀➴♡ Prologue

In which Joel plays cupid in order to help a hopeless Ellie win over the cute girl next door.

Series Masterlist!

"Ain't lesbians s'pposed to date girls?"

not proof read :P

[silly awkward Ellie Williams x fem reader!]

"How 'bout the Johnson's daughter? I heard she was um... sapphic... Is that the right term...?"

"God you're so bad at this!"

Ellie rolled her eyes as she continued to play with her food at the dinner table. For the past couple of weeks, Joel had been slowly encouraging Ellie to 'put herself out there,' whatever that meant. And so with the recent news of her two best friends becoming a thing, he'd only gotten more relentless. It's not like she didn't want a girlfriend; it was just complicated and definitely a lot harder than Joel thought it was. Jackson was a small town, and finding someone who clicked with her, who understood her, felt almost impossible.

"I'm just saying Ellie" he continued "She's smart, she's nice, and from what I heard she likes girls. Seems like a good match to me."

Ellie sighed stabbing a piece of broccoli with her fork. "It's not that simple Joel. You can't just put two lesbians in a room together and expect fireworks."

There was a short silence before Ellie looked up to see Joel furrowing his eyebrows looking at the wall behind her seemingly lost.

"Oh my god, Joel!"

"I mean c'mon are ya sure?" He said defensively. "That is how it usually seems to go."

"Ok- well- not all the time! Anyway that's not the point... Besides, she's barely gay. She only kisses girls as a party trick." Ellie murmurs looking back down at her food.

"Off the list." He mutters to himself just as quietly as he continues to eat.

"Not that I am endorsing this but just who else is on this 'list'?"

"Tracy, Mai, Cat, Y/N, Monet-"

"Y/N?"

"Y/N."

"There's no way she's into girls." She says unimpressed.

"You seen her?"

Ellie was silent for a while as she imagined the girl in her head. Yeah no way. 'She's too perfect to be gay.' 'That sounds bad Ellie you can't say that.' You were just so... you. When Joel and Ellie had first arrived in Jackson you had been the first one to introduce her to the others your age. You showed her kindness and helped her get situated into her new life. She would remember how you would often invite her over for dinner with your family, making her feel welcome in a town where she initially felt like an outsider. You'd help her with chores, tell her about the best spots in Jackson as well as who to look out for and who to trust. But after the first couple of months, you two had slowly fallen out. Ellie had Dina and Jesse, and you had your own friends. But, of course, with you being next door neighbors the two of you would still interact from time to time. Ellie’s positive view of you never changed, you were still the sweet girl who had helped her years ago. She remembered the times you’d both sit on her porch, talking about dreams and plans for a future that always seemed so uncertain to her yet you were always so sure of it. All your hopes for the future, the places you wanted to visit, the things you wanted to study, Ellie had wondered if you still had all the same goals. And all this to say; you are not gay. If this was just a way to convince herself that she'd never have a chance or if it was a way to get Joel to back off, she didn't know or care.

"Gone quiet. You fond of her?" He said with an accusing smile.

"Nope." She stands abruptly, handling her plate before walking over to the kitchen to place it in the sink. "Thanks for dinner. I'm going to bed, goodnight."

"Goodnight." He replied watching her as she scurried up the stairs with a knowing smile.

Ellie laid in bed that night, staring at the ceiling. As much as she hated to admit it, Joel was right. She couldn't help but wonder what it would be like to talk to you more, to get to know you all over again. Maybe there was a chance, however small, that you would feel the same fondness towards her as she felt for you. But that was a problem for tomorrow.
