Fluffy idea w ted 🥰✨ painting your child’s nails and your own to match and ted walks in and asks to join the club + shows off his nails to the boys the next day

I love putting the Lasso baby in stories. Marie Lasso, as I've named her, is such a daddy's girl and he loves it! This would absolutely be a Lasso family thing. Let's gooo!

---

Relationship: Ted Lasso x reader x child

Warnings: All fluff

---

Marie wasn't quite four years old but she was taken with watching you apply your makeup and paint your nails.

"Momma, can I try?" she asked one day, pointing at your bottle of nail polish.

You smiled at her, her big, dark hazel eyes like her daddy's staring back at you.

"Sure sweet, come here, put your hands out like this..."

You lay Marie's hands on the table, splaying out her fingers.

"Now hold still, babycakes..."

You brush on the baby blue polish and she smiles wide, already feeling so pretty and special. You ask her about her favorite things. She rattles off a story she makes up as she goes, and you beam with pride. She got your creative streak.

"There's my girls," Ted says as he walks in the door from work, putting his bag down. "Whatcha up to?"

Before you can answer, Marie holds up her one finished hand: "Daddy, look! Momma painted my nails!"

Ted looks at her with a shocked face and a smile, making her giggle at how he shares her excitement.

"Look at that, my little princess is all grown up," he jokes. "Can you help me paint my nails too?"

Marie looks at her daddy, then at you. You nod. "You wanna paint daddy's nails?"

Marie beams brighter than the sun. Will it be a sloppy paint job? Probably, but she can't wait.

Some newspaper is laid down on the table and Ted puts one hand down for Marie to work on, and with her tongue between her lips and focused attention, her little fingers grasp the wand as she slowly and meticulously paints Ted's hand.

When he twitches, she presses down on the back of his hand with her little palm. "No wiggle."

"Yes ma'am," Ted replies, looking at you with a grin.

Marie continues her attentive work, painting Ted's fingernails on both hands the matching baby blue as you and Marie.

"All done!" she says, clapping her hands. Ted marvels at his fingers and wiggles them.

"Well, would ya look at that. Thank ya, pumpkin. They're beautiful! They look like your momma's eyes..."

Ted looks at you and winks as he gives Marie a big hug and a kiss.

...

The next day at work, Ted is unpacking his backpack for a hard day of drills and practice ahead. Beard whistles.

"Nice color. Man City blue, eh?" Beard jokes, crossing his arms.

"Wife's eyes, actually," Ted chuckles. "The girls had a nail polish party and they let me in on the action."

Beard smiles, happy to see his friend so smitten and in love with the new life he has.

When Ted raises his whistle and approaches the team on the pitch, Jamie lets out a chuckle.

"Coach, what's that?" he asks, pointing at Ted's hand, which he proudly holds up and shows the team.

"I'mma tell you boys this once: When you see the people you love most in your life having fun without ya, you'll want in on it. I think Marie did a dang good job!"

Jamie smiles and lets it go. The team smiles, knowing that Ted's family comes first and he'll do anything for them. For you.

Roy approaches Ted's right side.

"You let 'er paint yer nails Man City blue?" he gruffly replies, as if he's insulted.

"Naw, Roy-o. This ain't Man City blue. It's my wife's eyes and my baby girl's favorite color."

Roy smiles and slaps Ted's back.

"Just kiddin', mate. Looks good," he smiles before returning to a stern look and walking onto the pitch. "WHISTLE!"

---

This was fun and cute - I love these little stories. Ted would so be proud of Marie's handiwork. Thanks for this prompt, friend! Hope you enjoyed!

CPC CHAPTER 133

Hoo boy

Before I get into the serious stuffs, let's appreciate Leland's dedication to arts and crafts

He's so dedicated, he got the hair 100% correct (Maria and Lorena even has their hair accesories)

HE EVEN GOT DIFFERENT KINDS OF CHESS. THIS MAN 💀💀

Anyway,

About Lorena's secret, which is her school project I'm sure. There's something that doesn't sit right with me. At first I thought she is making like a defense wall for her kingdom, but that's not possible. If it is a defense wall, someone must notice it. At least the guard. And though they probably doesn't care what the princesses are doing, building a defense wall (that's definitely huge), isn't exactly something you can just ignore. So I'm gonna cross that theory out.

What I'm sure of however, is that she's building something (it's quite obvious, judging by the objects she carried around the house, the mud, the bandages, etc)

Maybe she's building a weapon? It's definitely something related to military. Or perhaps something else. Whatever it is, I'm sure it will play a big role in the plot, considering how long it took her to build. It took her approximately a week, probably more. She has been building it since before the gala. And if we look at Frederick's calendar, and how Isolde said it's been days, that means it took her a week or so to finish what she's doing. She stated that it only needed some finishing and it will be ready at the end of the month (which is soon). I can see that whatever she's doing will somehow stop or at least put a bump into Leland's plan (at least I hope so).

What about Whitney? To be honest I haven't figured out an answer yet. He said he is home, which heavily implies that he's at the Monochrome kingdom, as it could be a parallel.

But for what? Why would he come to the place where he almost got murdered? He doesn't seem like he is going to fight Greyden physically, but what is talking going to do? What does he want to discuss?

Is he even actually at the Monochrome Kingdom? Or is he at the monastery? He spent days doing what he's doing. Since it has been days after the gala, and Jolie was about to mention Whitney's absence. After that the cpc door opened and Prez exclaimed "Whitney..?!" But is it really Whitney, considering Lambcat's knack at plot twists?

(I still have no theory nor statements about Whitney)

Now let's get into the sad stuffs

Goodness gracious holy ever beep. What the beep.

First, we have Maria. Her crying out in a balcony in the rain is pretty dang depressing to watch. She just went from accepting her fiance (ex?) For who he is and fixing their relationship to what the heck kinda mess this is! In a quick 180° degree turn! I hope Becket will talk to her.

Lorena is more into anger. She immediately jumped into action. All of her homeworks are done, she has a perfect attendance. It feels like what Prez was doing after she got banished from her palace, immediately wanting to save cursed princesses. But Lorena is more complex. All of her doing now isn't based on heroic determination. It seems like..some sort of cold anger grudge. She wants to defend her family, but now her determination is formed by anger and spite.

Jamie is panicking, and I may have an answer to that. I don't think Isolde would spare any details in that nachos. Which means, Jamie knows exactly what Leland is planning, not just the basics. He's pacing back and forth at the entrance. He's waiting for someone. I'm sure he's either waiting for Leopold, or for Jack. He knew that Leland tricked Jack into going to retrieve the omniscient clam (as far as I remember), and he's the only one who can explain the situation to Jack.

Gwen, oh sweet Gwendolyn. This one messed me up the most. She's not fine, she's absolutely not fine. And yet, she still forces herself to tell Moly and Agatha that she's fine. Her altruistic personality never fades even when she's at the lowest point. And now here she is, sitting at the corner of her room, while staring at her completely shattered face in the mirror.

This screwed me up.

I'm happy to see that Molly and Agatha is going to try to cheer them up, tho :)

Now, moving on to the best family of the year (人*´∀｀)｡*ﾟ+

i can never look at plaid the same way ever again.

what the heck happened.

I don't even know how to start with this one. Okay, let's just get to the point.

Leland. He sees people like chess pieces that he could control however he'd like. And there's one panel that I want to talk about.

Why does he have a chess piece of Leelathae? We see that he controls the chess pieces. Does this mean he had a role in Leelathae's death? Because now that I think about it, the fact that Leelathae passed away is way too convenient for Leland's plan (I uh, felt like saying that. I think that Leelathae's death has some influences over Leland's plan in a good way, but I can't think of any reason yet). Like it was on purpose.

Moving on to Isolde because I don't know what else to say about Leland.

Finally, my question has been answered. Isolde DOES care about her sons. In fact, she cares alot about them. She's terrified about what Leland had done to them. I'm so ready for her badass moment yeaha! It's heartbreaking to see her regretting her decisions. It's chilling, because she's no longer an emotionless queen. She's now a regretful mother. And she's finally going to snap at Leland I'm pumped! But at the same really worried because it's Leland we're talking about.

And finally, my absolute favorites which just crushed me even more.

What did Leland do to the boys? What the heck did he.. This is not good, this is nowhere near good! What the heck's with the next episode's title?! Punishment?! Great, Leland's feeding his sons trauma again. Not cool, Leland. Not cool.

Oh and I have to throw this thought out before I forget.

What if it's not Leland, but Helena and Jesse (Jack's parents) who had a role in Leelathae's death?

Okay, seriousness aside, that swan army? Amazing, would absolutely scare the crap outta me. Renee you slay (both figuratively and kinda literally). I do feel bad for Abbi tho :') but hopefully she's gonna get another prom from Prez!!

Welp, that was the longest cpc post I've written so far. But that was already most of my thoughts, anyway! Absolutely please tell me what theories y'all have!! Or it could be just a random thought too!

Mono out! (But still in to listen to your thoughts haha x) )

For the ask game (if this is still going) because I absolutely love everything you write - 🌧️❄️

oh this is so sweet thank you <3 and yes it is ABSOLUTELY STILL GOING. psa: if you see i've reblogged an ask game but you see it days later.... you are welcome to send me an ask anyway. i love doing them! send me them! i will answer them (maybe weeks later but EVENTUALLY i will). anyways!...

❄️ Share a snippet from a WIP of your choosing.

But he doesn’t even have a chance to worry ’bout that, because he’s just lifting his hand to knock when the door swings open and the boy on the other side—decidedly not Colin—says, gravely, “You.” “Me,” says Ted cheerfully. “Man, we could open our very own Hudson Street Orphanage up in here, huh? Only without all the blatant child labor law violations.” Trent comes out from the right-side alcove that leads to the kitchen—hey, whaddya know, Ted’s got one just like it—and stops behind the boy, tying his hair up into a neat little bun. His scarf of the day is a pleated grey-and-silver number that complements the pale pink notes of his Material Girl t-shirt. “Hello, Mr. Lasso,” he says. “Isaac, this is Ted Lasso, the new neighbor. Mr. Lasso, this is Isaac, Colin’s friend.” “Best friend,” Colin corrects, shaking his head at Ted as he emerges from the left-side alcove with a soccer—football, dang it, already clutched to his chest. “Da hasn’t got any friends so he dunno the difference.”

from the football kiddos au! ted meets colin's best friend isaac and colin continues to bully (affectionate) his da trent.

🌧️ Share something angsty from your WIP.

Practice is shit, again. No more faces get busted, but Jamie’s pretty sure that’s only because he manages to gain possession of the ball exactly once and almost immediately gives it up in a clever side-tackle from Sam that he’d never let get the best of him usually. At lunch he puts in his airpods and goes to run the treadmill, hard and fast, deep bass thudding in his ears like that’ll be enough to scare off the jittery sensation crawling beneath his bones, the unending sense that he’s falling off the edge of that great big cliff into the darkness. No one comes to disturb him, but during afternoon practice he can tell that he’s beginning to get on their nerves.

from the mom city fix-it! jamie truly is Going Through It. poor babe. it'll get better... eventually.

thank you for the asks!! <3

for this ask game!

#ask games #anon #ough. love my two drastically different wips. it's giving #WIPlash #ok i'll shut up now #ted lasso #jamie tartt #trent crimm #colin hughes #football kiddos au #mom city fix it

Could you possibly write the part of where do broken hearts go where they come out to the team? Obviously non-canon but I love the idea of coops coming out on their own terms.

Yesss. I hope this is at least a bit what you hoped for, I tried my best.

Thank you, @lumosinlove for letting us use your characters and their world

CW for coming out and a little bit of angst

Sirius kept his eyes sternly on the road, one hand on the steering wheel, the other digging into Remus’ thigh. They were on their way to a monthly team night at the Dumais house, which was a good thing obviously, but Remus and Sirius never been so nervous in their lives.

Remus’ face was pale and he was playing with his lobe, a nervous habit that Sirius adored.

"Are you sure you want to do this Sirius? We don't have to."

"I want this. I had enough time to think about it, it’s been three month. They won't react badly."

Neither Sirius, nor Remus was sure if he was trying to convince himself or Remus.

"God I'm so nervous.", Remus said.

"You and me both."

He drove the car up the driveway, parking it neatly, before putting on the handbrake.

Remus was out of the door the second the car stopped, opening the trunk to take out the dessert they made. Sirius looked down upon his trembling hands. He wasn’t even able to open the car door.

Sirius leaned back, gave himself a second to breathe, to calm down. He didn’t think it would end bad, he knew his team but that didn’t make it any less scary. This was huge. This was everything to him, nothing he imagined he would ever get the chance to do.

A knock on the window pulled him out of his thoughts, two familiar eyes looked at him, one familiar hand pulled him gently out of the car.

Sirius intertwined their hands and held on tightly to the familiarity.

They walked up to the door, glanced at each other nervously, before Remus separated their hands and knocked.

Said door opened quickly, revealing a grinning Dumo with an exited looking Katie on his back.

“Sirius!”, she screamed and slid down Dumo’s back.

Both of the boys relaxed a bit, welcoming the warmth and love radiating from this household.

Sirius didn’t even get the chance to say hello before Katie pulled him away towards her toys and…Logan.

Dumo and Remus laughed a little bit as they hugged, looking fondly at the little group.

Remus made his way towards the kitchen to put the dessert in the fridge, only to see Celeste and Leo bent over pots and pans, discussing something in French.

“Hello you two.”

“Loops, hi!”

Remus grinned, handing the dessert over to Celeste, who accepted it with a grateful smile.

He leaned back against the kitchen counter, focusing on the noise. The kids screaming, Sirius and Logan laughing, Kasey and James playfully arguing, it made him feel safe. Safe enough to relax. Because this was his family.

“-mus. Remus!”

He snapped out of his thoughts, looking at a smiling Adele.

“Dinner’s ready.”, she laughed.

“Well then, let’s go, before the rest floods the kitchen.”

- - - -

Dinner was anything but quiet. Everyone was talking to everybody, except Remus and Sirius.

Both of them picked at their food, not able to eat, too nervous about what is going to happen.

“Is something wrong with the food, my dears?”, Celeste asked over the noise.

"No, it's just... I have- We have some news."

With that, the table got a bit quieter, more eyes focused on the two.

"Remus and I are dating", said Sirius, his voice a bit unsteady but it definitely left no room for an argument.

The room went completely still, the only thing left to hear were the kids down in the basement.

To this day, Sirius and Remus swore they have never seen a bunch of hockey players this quiet.

Sirius’ eyes wandered, studying the faces of his teammates. He looked at Dumo but all he could see was proudness on his face.

A moment later hell broke loose. The whole table screamed, hugging them from all sides.

Remus saw Leo touching his bracelet, sending a wink in his direction but being pulled into a hug by Lily, who squeezed his breath right out of his lungs.

Sirius on the other side, had certain hopes. The team was important to him, yes but there were two people, which opinion held the most weight and one of them was leaving the room.

Sirius’ heart stopped as he saw James leaving. He held back a gasp, chest tightening. He got up and followed James with wobbly knees and a lump in his throat.

“Jamie?”, his voice broke a bit.

When James didn’t turn around Sirius couldn’t hold it back in anymore. A sob escaped his mouth.

James’ head flew around, starring at Sirius with wide, tear-filled eyes.

“Do you want me to leave the team?”, Sirius managed to get out between heavy sobs.

"What are you talking ab- Oh god no, no, Sirius no that’s not- Look, I'm sorry Sirius. I’m so sorry."

His voice was thick with tears. Sirius’ face turned from hurt to confused, crying nevertheless.

James took one, two long strides before pulling Sirius in a bone-crushing hug.

"I'm sorry you couldn't tell me and I'm sorry for assuming that you have a girlfriend, I must've made you so uncomfortable."

"James. This had nothing to do with you, alright? I wasn't ready to tell people", said Sirius, “I love you Pots."

"Dang it, I love you too Cap."

James pulled away and rested his hands on Sirius’ shoulders.

"Nothing's ever going to change that. I got your back."

They made their way back to the dinner table and sat back down.

"Thank you.”

"All good?", asked Remus.

"All good."

Sirius leaned down without thinking, without worrying and kissed him because now he finally, finally could.

“The past always catches up one way or another”

Thanks for the prompt, anon! Here’s ~600 words of very soft Professor Potter preslashy Drarry. Hope you like it. 💕

Harry doesn't recognise him at first. But here he is, standing in the back of his Care of Magical Creatures class—Draco Malfoy.

"Scorpius, Professor," the boy corrects, though there is a kindly glint in his eye.

"Oh, Jesus. Sorry," Harry apologises, cheeks flushed.

"It's alright. Albus Severus says you've got the memory of a pygmy puff, and—"

"I'll be sure to have words with him," Harry interrupts, wary eyes on his middle child. "Now, class, as you can see"—he gestures to the enclosure behind him—"we're studying hippogriffs today."

Scorpius takes a step back. "My father warned me about this," he mutters, jostling Albus with his elbow.

Harry should have expected the two boys to be friends. They're both in Slytherin and small for their year, which, at their age, is all it takes for friendships to form. Although he can't fathom what they'd talk about; he certainly has nothing to say to Malfoy, even now, except maybe Quidditch—and Albus hates flying.

"We talk about how our mums and das don't live together," Albus explains during spring recess a few months later, porridge-crusted spoon danging from his mouth.

"Not that it's bad," Jamie adds quickly, ever the thoughtful eldest.

"Yeah, it's not bad," Albus agrees. "But nobody else gets it, you know?"

Harry does know. The wizarding world is small and stifling traditional; there'd been maybe one divorce in the last fifty years, before the Malfoy-Greengrass Potter-Weasley doubleheader. It was a literal double header: they'd shared a line on the front page of the Prophet. Rivals, even in marital separation. Jesus. Harry needs a drink, just thinking of it.

"What's wrong, daddy?" Lily asks.

"That's just his face when he thinks about Scorpius's da," Albus says.

"Don't eat with your mouth open," Harry scowls. And then he sighs.

The next week, the boys get caught sneaking into Hogsmeade.

"They'll have detention for three weeks," Minerva says.

"Isn't that a bit much?" Harry protests, despite knowing better than to undermine the Headmistress's authority when he was a faculty member himself.

"One week should suffice," Malfoy agrees.

Minerva purses her lips. And then she says, "One week."

Harry gets up after Draco and watches his robes billow around him as he leaves. It reminds Harry of Snape, except it doesn't, because they're a deep cerulean, with silver detailing. Ravenclaw colours, on a Slytherin. Except Draco has never looked so good.

They say good-bye to their boys on separate ends of the staircase and then descend the stairs simultaneously, though not together. Harry fumbles over what to say. He thinks maybe he'll blame Scorpius. Say something like, "Albus would never, he's an absolute angel," which is a total lie, but would rile Draco right up. And then it'll be like old times again. An old-fashioned fistfight through the hallowed halls of Hogwarts. Harry doesn't think it's a terrible idea; it's not like they can ever be friends. Sooner or later, the past will catch up to them, and they'll be back at each other's throats. Harry's only speeding things up a bit.

"Our children are absolute dunderheads," Draco says, instead.

Harry recalls the boys in the office, red-faced and squirming in overstuffed chairs; their glue-on moustaches drooped pathetically over gaping mouths. He can't help but laugh.

It's a beautiful day outside. The sky is an endless expanse of blue, and Harry's dizzy marvelling over how big it is, all of it. It's hard to imagine that people have ever died on these grounds; not when the now is so bright, Harry can barely open his eyes.

"I've brooms back in the hut," Harry offers in a jumble, words tripping over each other in their rush to get out, "The new Cometheads; they're practically weightless. You've got to try them."

"I haven't flown in years," Draco says, distant. But he follows.

Royally Matched Pt. 9

Pairing: Prince!Bucky x Matchmaker!Reader Royal AU

Summary: Sam being Sam. Coronation time. Butterflies.

Warnings: None

A/n: Guys the series is almost over! Oh my gosh! Just a chapter or two left.

Part 9

“Y/n!” Bucky called jogging after you.

You turned toward the prince as he came toward you.

“I, uh, wanted to know if you wanted to go for a ride with Me, Amy, and Steve.” Bucky said nervously rubbing the back of his neck.

“Thanks, but I’m sure Dot would love to join you. Sam and I—"

“Sam? What are you doing with Sam?” Bucky said with a displeased look.

“He wanted to take me for a ride in his carriage around town before dinner. I don’t see why you would care; you have Dot.”

“Well, yeah, but—”

“Y/n! There you are! You coming?” Sam asked from one of the doors.

“Yup! One sec!” You called before looking at Bucky. “Have fun. Tell Amy to be careful.”

Bucky shoved his hands in his pockets. “I, um, I will. See you at dinner tonight I guess.”

“See ya.” You said before jogging to catch up with Sam.

~~~~~~

“Where’s Y/n?” Steve asked saddling a horse as Bucky walked up.

“She’s with Sam.” Bucky grumbled.

“Is that jealousy I hear?” Steve joked as Bucky shot him a glare.

“No, just mad she chose him over me.”

“That’s jealousy.” Steve confirmed. “Do tell me again why you chose Dot over Y/n.”

Bucky huffed as he tightened his saddle. “Not now Steve. And Dot’s not that bad.”

Steve looked at his friend with disappointment. “Right, I must have missed all the times she was pleasant. She’s trouble, Buck. And her painting skills aren’t exactly praiseworthy.”

“Well, not everyone can be a professional like you, Steve. Wait? You saw that?”

Steve nodded with a grimace. “I would try to be nice, but it was horrible. Sorry, pal. I think you might need to rethink your life choices.”

“Let’s just get on with our horse ride. You ready Amy?” Bucky asked turning to the little girl that just rounded the corner.

“Yup!” She said with a huge smile.

~~~~~~~

“So, what’s the deal with you and Bucky?” Sam asked as you slowly rode through town.

“N-nothing. What makes you say we have something?” You said nervously.

Sam deadpanned and sighed. “That man is head over heels for you. My question is why he is with that Dot woman.”

“Bucky is not head over heels for me. And he’s with Dot because I matched them together.”

“Why don’t you just tell him how you feel? That would save you a whole lot of trouble. And don’t you dare start telling me that you’re not good enough, because you are. You are Y/n the Beautiful.”

“Well, thank you, Sam.” You said as he smiled. “I’m glad someone thinks I’m beautiful.”

~~~~~~~

“Over here!” Sam called as you walked into the dining room. “Come sit by me.”

You walked over to Sam and sat by him, unaware that Bucky’s eyes were following you.

“Hi, Sam. Nat is on another date with Bruce, so I’m glad I’m not going to be alone.”

“Don’t think you would be alone even if I was gone. I think princey boy is staring you down.” Sam chuckled turning your head.

You saw Bucky staring at you, a frown settled on his lips. You stared back at him for a little bit before he turned away to talk to Steve.

“I’m just going to say that that was a little creepy.” You said as Sam nodded.

“I think he’s jealous. I’m loving this actually. I wonder what would happen if I put my arm around your shoulders.” Sam said slinging his arm lazily around you.

You both watched as Bucky’s smiling face came to a stop on both of you. His face turned into an all out murder stare.

“He’s so jealous!” Sam laughed. “This is kinda fun. Can I do this the entire night?”

“As much as he deserves it, leave the man alone.” You playfully scolded Sam.

“Oh alright.” Sam pouted crossing his arms. “It was fun while it lasted. Ooh, look! They’re bringing out the food!”

You rolled your eyes and laughed at the man beside you. “You’re such a dork.”

~~~~~~~

Dinner went well, and you wished Sam a goodnight before going to your room and collapsing on your mattress. Tomorrow was the coronation, and your stomach twisted at the thought of Dot becoming queen. Oh well, it was Bucky’s choice. Your eyes began to water. You loved Bucky, and it hurt to see him so enamored by another woman. Clutching your pillow close you cried into it.

“Gosh dang it heart! Why must you be this way?!” You sobbed, tears soaking your pillow.

~~~~~~~

The castle was buzzing with activity. Bucky was finally becoming king today, and today was your last day in the kingdom. You had hardly seen any of Bucky today. He was swamped with pictures and the press for his coronation, but it was probably for the best. You had been packing a good deal of the day, happy to go back home, but sad because the man you loved would be left here.

Grabbing the box off your desk, you opened it, tears filling your eyes. If Bucky couldn’t feel butterflies with you, then you could support his love of Dot. You lightly jogged down the stairs, clutching the box close. You kept a lookout for Damien, you needed him to deliver the gift to Dot. Bucky saw you walking down the stairs and smiled.

“Y/n, haven’t seen you all day.” He said before taking in your appearance. “You’re not ready.”

You looked at your t-shirt and jeans. “Oh yeah. I should probably do that. Hey, you look kingly.”

Bucky laughed. “Not sure if that’s a word but thank you. My hair is good?”

“You look fine Bucky. I, uh, gotta go get ready.” You lied, your eyes darting to the floor.

“See you in a little bit then.” He said with a wave before walking away.

You sighed. Then Damien caught your eye. “Damien!”

The man walked toward you, a frown on his features. “You’re not ready.”

“Yeah, yeah, I know. Can you give this to Dot? I want her to wear it for the coronation.” You shrugged handing him the box.

“Of course. Anything else?” He asked raising an eyebrow.

“Please don’t tell Bucky, but I’m leaving.”

“Why?”

“I’m sorry Damien, I just…please give that to Dot.” You spoke quietly before running up the stairs.

On your way to your room, you bumped into Sam.

“Whoa there!” He chuckled before taking in your current state. “What’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing.” You mumbled wiping your eyes.

“It’s obviously something if it’s got you crying.” Sam refuted, his face full of concern. “Tell me what’s wrong.”

“Everything. It seems like nothing is going right. I-I just need to go back home. I’m leaving Sam. Please don’t tell anyone. It’s for the best.”

Sam sighed before hugging you. “I won’t. Just be careful, okay? Wouldn’t want my favorite person to end up somewhere she wasn’t supposed to be.”

You laughed through tears. “Thanks Sam. Y-you’re a good friend.”

“Probably the best.” Sam joked. “But seriously, stay safe.”

“I will.”

~~~~~~~

Bucky’s blue eyes darted around frantically. Where were you? You weren’t among the dancing couples or by the food, most of which Sam was hogging by the way. He tugged the collar of his shirt, desperately trying to cool down his frantic state. Dot noticed Bucky’s nervousness as soon as she walked in. She thought Bucky was looking for her, but could tell he hadn’t even noticed she walked in.

“Hey Jamie.” Dot said causing Bucky to jump.

“Hey Dot, I—where did you get that?” Bucky questioned as soon as his eyes landed on the golden butterflies that were pinned to the shoulder of her dress.

“Y/n gave it to me. Isn’t that sweet?” Dot gushed batting her eyelashes.

Butterflies. Bucky thought. Freaking butterflies.

Bucky suddenly felt really bad. His eyes darted around the room, but no such luck. You weren’t there. His heart sank. I’m an idiot!

Meanwhile the king watched his son. The king had seen many things in his life, but golly, his son could be an idiot at times. He turned to Nat who was currently sipping her wine.

“Where is she?” The king asked.

Nat looked away. “I—”

“Don’t lie to me.”

“She’s at the airport. She didn’t want anyone to know.”

“Must I do everything myself?” The king said standing up.

“Where are you going?” Nat asked with wide eyes.

“To go get that woman from the airport and get my son to tell her how he feels. I feel like they both need their happy ending. Don’t you?”

Brian Wilson’s Ghost Theater: The Radiant Radish Story

Somewhere hidden on the isle of kokomo the ghostly casper version of beloved musical genius and heart and soul of The Beach Boys Brian Wilson is starring at a bowl of ice cream melting on top of his piano. The flavor, coconut rum sultana, the ghost of Brian Wilson perks up and smiles a little and looks away, he’s a shy spirit.

Hey dudes you might be wondering why I’m a ghost when I’m not even dead yet? Well that’s the whole point of Brian Wilson’s Ghost Theater. We’re going to get to the bottom of these mysteries. I have been mainly using this digital forum as a way to write cool reviews about cartoons and good vibrations, but then, well you know, The Beach Boys have fallen into worse company than Ol Charlie. Don’t worry just because I’m a ghost doesn’t mean I pal around with Charlie Manson and the rest of the ghoul gang. You’ve got to cut those toxic people out of your lives. Come, let’s go to my garage. It’s easier to tell a story in there.

The Ghost of Brian Wilson floats away from his piano stool wrapped in kelp. I am trying to get visual proof of the existence of the Ghost of Brian Wilson but my iPhone is sparking. There are rumors on the island that Kate Bush has relocated here and has built her house on an even more precarious cliff. I take one last glance at the splashing glades of dark and foreboding ocean slapping against the cliffside. I wonder how the Ghost of Brian Wilson’s piano stays in such pristine condition despite the wet conditions?

The path to Brian Wilson’s Ghost’s Garage is covered in thick overgrown vines from papaya trees, I have to always make sure I am looking down or else I could get snapped up by the foliage. A furry hermit crab is ushering into a sandy cove with the air of the conspiratorial. There are two glowing theremins outside of Brian Wilson’s Ghost garage attracting moths larger than a grown adult man’s head flapping against the glow. I walk inside the garage and the door does not slam shut and lock me inside like I had feared but the sun seems stuck in a sunset. Brian Wilson’s Ghost pats upon a plush plum colored loveseat indicating a place for me to sit. There is an ash tray full of wrapped unsmoked purple joints and more ice cream.

////

This Story Begins In the Summer of 1970

Leading up to the release of our album Surf’s Up, the one album I was taking a back seat on. I had left my physical body for the first time in 69 sometime after I started using coke. Van Dyke Parks and I were messing around in the medicine cabinet and doing the whole, “This isn’t my coke, this is your coke” routine and I felt my heart bum bum bumming at a vicious “Be My Baby”frequency. I needed a boost to keep up with the fruits and vege-tables at Radiant Radish. I was trying to get this specific chime sound right for my cash register, and I really meant my cash register. It was important for the rest of the store’s six cash registers to still sound like cash a regular cash register.

(At this point in the story Brian Wilson’s Ghost vanishes and reappears with large cylindrical recordings of cash register noises and we listen to them for a few excruciating minutes)

And my cash register would ring this real pretty tone for whenever a real sexy lady bought some beet root powder and unruly arugula. I was imagining “Deidre,” Bruce’s ex-lady’s sister. As soon as the cash register burst open my ghost leapt out of my skin. I really like the actual Brian Wilson, but he never wants me around. He calls me a drag! I tried helping out with Radiant Radish, but I wouldn’t stop tinkering with the cash register. I more or less inhabited his bath robe and mostly hung around. Sometimes I help the real Brian catch a certain chord shape floating by and haunt Murry, my dad.

////

“So, you’re a coke ghost?” Are the words I eventually gather and casually toss out for Brian Wilson’s Ghost. I am hoping that somehow this all connects with the present and explain how Mike Love ruined the band.

“I’m a health food store ghost!”

“Okay, but I’m not going to buy a subscription to this vitamin supplement program!”

“Then why did you bother coming all the way out to Kokomo? I am not supposed to let anybody onto this island! I should have left you drowned!”

“Hey that’s not fair!” I am really hurt right now but I don’t want to lose Brian Wilson’s Ghost so I check my back account, and of course it’s too low, but I sign up for the $15.99 antimicrobial surprise package and Brian Wilson’s Ghost finally stops doing his heart wrenching pout that makes me want to jump out into the ocean.

“Why did you wrench me out my revery..I feel like I was almost really back there. Dang dude.”

“Weren’t 69 and the start of the 70s pretty brutal for you Brian?” I look for that noble sorrow hidden in the depths of the phantom’s eyes and come up empty. He is completely vacant. “Fuck Mike Love!” I take my own self off guard by how passionate I get when I say this. Brian Wilson’s Ghost only responds with a fuzzy frown. “What? Don’t you get agree? You, or at least the real you, called him a piece of shit that stole The Beach Boys name. The reason I came out here was because I want to steal the Beach Boys name back for you.”

“So then it really will be safe to listen to The Beach Boys again, huh?” Brian Wilson’s Ghost continues doing that perpetual tear suspended in the corner of his eye wounded puppy dog eyes and I really wish I could give this ghost a swirly.

“What? Um, Sure, but I doubt we’d be converting any new fans like Jamie Stewart of Xiu Xiu who took to Twitter to let everyone know that he always hated The Beach Boys.”

“That was our slogan back in 70 and 71, “It’s Safe to Listen to The Beach Boys again.”

“Ugh that’s terrible and this was an attempt to make yourselves seem cool again?”

“Our new manager Jack “The Super hurtful Man” came up with that one. What do you have against Mike Love? He’s not a bad man! Come on kick back and let me put on “All I Wanna Do” could a true asshole sing a song that nice?”

“Yes! I mean yes I have heard the song, it practically invented chillwave, and yes an asshole can sing a nice tune every once and awhile. Don’t think I didn’t notice all of the Wanted Dead or Alive Mike Love posters on Kokomo, even the people of his own island can’t stand him. Brian Wilson you are The Beach Boys! The Beach Boys were about spreading love to everyone and encouraging friendly ecology! “Take A Load Off Your Feet” prevented my foot being amputated from lounger’s foot. We’ve got some before the election! Brian Wilson’s Ghost can make his debut and show the world that The Beach Boys do not support Trump!” I feel like I have gone rabid by the end of this tirade and the fuzzy hermit crab is using his pinchers to snap at my toes to shoo me away.

Brian Wilson’s Ghost licks his dry mouth and gives me his award winning smile. He vanishes inside of his deuce coup and turns on the engine. He opens the door and once again pats on the seat letting me know that the seat is warm and accepting of my sorry ass. I reach into my breast pocket and wave two cassettes, one of Sunflower and the other of Surf’s Up trying to entice Brian to put them in, but he waves them away. Instead, Brian Wilson’s ghost takes out a red blank disc that is labeled with a Radiant Radish sticker.

Brian was right, these cash registers really are the best part of the store.

I just watched hoco and it's just never-ending kilig

Here's all the stuff I loved, under the cut: warnings: spoilers, codeswitching

TGWDLM

Jon's gigil. It makes me so happy for him. Now he could go full-on theatre kid

Jaime's belt in "Join Us and Die" could raise the dead and set me on fire. I wholeheartedly believe it can rival Dylan's "Welcooooooooome"

Jeff's sparkly eyeshadow

Robert looks like he was a marble sculpture by a Renaissance artist which was brought to life by Aphrodite. Like, a male Galatea I guess

Robert's little growl at "Mr. Ingenue"

I didn't think The Hips could get much better, but it did

Mariah being so excited she had a tiny bit of trouble taking the mic off the stand when there was another one closer to Corey

The last long note of Workin' Boys. It's about 8 seconds I think

Mariah's little giggle at the end of Workin' Boys. Pure.

Firebringer

Lauren Walker still narrating the Firebringer intro

Brolden being groovy and also gigil

I'm ace, but dang, these ladies

Lauren Lopez's "Jemilla"

Lauren Lopez, Meredith, Lauren Walker, and Rachael's sparkly outfits

Jaime and Jamie singing together

Notice how Meredith's nail polish is blue and Lauren Lopez's is purple? I wonder if that's a nod to the Jazzalil colors

Lauren Lopez flexing at "with the gift of a stronger mind"

The way the music by the orchestra made the Jazzalil proposal sound like an actual wedding song. It almost had me ruining my eyeliner

Trail to Oregon

"a family of dysfunctional fools"

Their smiles

Corey's little move at "my legs hurt"

Corey's vibrato at "Wisconsin"

Jeff's "DestinyyyyyYyyYYyyY" (I think it was about 7 seconds long). It's really reinforcing my dreamcasting of him as Jean Valjean

The thing Lauren did at "everybody swim, take a mini vacay"

Lauren's growl

Jaime's little "wheeee"

Bouncy Jeff

The instruments during Speedrun! The keys especially!

Rachael and Jeff being such rockstars

Chaotic ally running around the stage

"Motherloving?" uh yeah, y'all better love the Mother

I hit pause and this happened:

ANI

Joe Moses throwing shade

Mark, Nick Gage, and Clark getting their own moments

The winds during "With My Own Eyes"

Meredith's dancing

The synth is so funky

Meredith fanning herself while Clark was singing is a big mood

The transitions are so smooth and flawless

Clark and Nick doing air guitars

Twisted

Joe Walker has spoken. Twisted is the first and superior live action Disney remake.

Joe's shift from himself to Achmed

Everyone's different faces during Achmed's monologue

Robert's gigil

Their faces at "TIGERLOVER" and the awkward faces after Joe screams "NO" (tag yourself, I’m Jaime)

Robert's voice during his Iconic line

Denise and Meredith's dancing

Brittany's dress and shoes matched perfectly

The eargasm that was all of 1001 Nights

Brittany and Carlos' exit

Rachael's gigil

Dylan making that belt look effortless

Rachael's exit

Holy Musical B@man

Nick Gage and the echo. Wow.

The instrumentals!

Jim kinda bouncing on his knees

Jaime and Denise in Rogues

Bouncy Brolden

Dylan and Jaime pointing and looking right into the camera singing "I wanna be your friend forever"

Nico Ager has Sto. Nino hair now

That moment all oof them have different lines and melodies overlapping

Lauren's voice being the loudest at the last "No more dark, sad, lonely B@man"

Starship

Denise's intro

STATUS QUO MYGAHD. THE VOCALS, THE INSTRUMENTALS. THE GORGEOUS LADIES

I'm such a sucker for the flutes during Status Quo

Whoever thought of this arrangement for Status Quo has a galaxy brain

Brolden and Jaime looking at the camera with gigil

Dylan's smile at "to do"

Joey and Brant being in character

MAMD

"andtheirtalkingpenisesandvaginas"

Joey during the orchestral intro. I got Disney Prince vibes

Joe being chaotic

AJ's entrance is so effing perfect

Joey doing the hips

Mariah getting a mic during Ready to Go

Everyone being such cuties in Ready to Go

Goin' Back to Hogwarts

Nick's laughs during the intro

The "dramatic instrumental music" is indeed dramatic and beautiful

The difference the great sound quality makes!

Darren's riffs

Darren's slide at the end of "I'm still aliiiiiiveeeee"

Darren's reaction at Joey's entrance. Big mood

Bonnie sounds so incredible especially with this sound quality

Okay but Lauren, Julia, and Jim look like they coordinated outfits as a posse for this

Lauren's accent! And the growl she does in her stanza

The resounding "transferred to Pigfarts" from the audience

Darren unable to keep himself from smiling during Lauren's part

Everyone's faces during Dylan's entrance, so adoring

Dylan's "Welcome" is about 15-16 secs long, that's insane

Brosenthal's face at the hufflepuff line

Umaaura talaga si Lauren Lopez

Mariah was having fun but she gotta disappear for the next song aw

Harry Freakin' Potter

The dancing!

Jim slapping his own ass during the dance break

Danny on the alto sax!

Darren pouring his all out

To Have a Home

Sigh

Darren getting up only to drop to his knees 0.5 secs later

Darren running all the way around the stage and he is somehow still going off for the next stanzas

Different As Can Be

Their outfits match so well

The instrumentals really give a Broadway sound to this song

This moment reminds me of Enjolras and Grantaire in the Les Mis 25th anniversary:

The harmony at the end

Brosenthal singing about being bound to each other while being down on one knee.

To this day I still don't know how Joe does that Perry the Platypus sound while singing

Jazz hands!

Coolest Girl

The instrumental at the intro

Bonnie's just mesmerizing in this number

The little "hi"

This is a huge "fuck you" to the people who keep comparing these two awesome ladies

The way Meredith looks at Bonnie

Meredith gets to say "bitch" but no one else can curse throughout this entire concert

Ginny's Song (Cho Chang Reprise) and the Dragon Song

THAT'S IN CANADA audience participation

Darren explaining the rhymes

Granger Danger

The trumpets!

Ay yung pagnanasa

Joey doing the hips again

Lauren looking right at the camera at "the HOTTEST girl I've ever seen"

Lauren being dramatic with the mic stand

Their facial expressions

Hhhhh the last "daaaaanger"

Dance Again

The subtitles catching that one woman yelling "Marry me!"

The instrumentals give me Rodgers and Hammerstein's vibes

The audience clapping since Joe's not in tap shoes

Darren's twirl

I'm not sure who's the one doing the operatic notes, I think it's Lauren, anyway I love it

Joe's suave "Hello beautiful people, I'm gonna kill you"

That key change, with Dylan's voice standing out

Joe's genuine happiness. Awww.

Wizard of the Year

They just knew the audience wants the Mouse Prince fantasy monologue and they were prepared for it. And AJ's delivery of it was divine

"my secret dream" and then the subtitles catch one woman going "not anymore!"

The way AJ sang "manly as a mare"

The gigil in "Gilderoy is here, to fill your short attention spans"

Guys Like Potter

The moment it's just Tyler's voice and the piano

"feel-good instrumental music"

The harmonies

Joe Moses shifting into character at the end

Sidekick

The improvement!

Joey's acting!

The violin!

"groovy instrumental music"

He does the little dance!

This gave me palpitations

Joey interacting with AJ during the song

The twirl

"am I the hottest?" *audience screams*

The gruff gigil at "Definitely not"

Joey shifting to his gruffer voice

THAT ENDING WITH THE FALSETTO AND THE PILITA CORRALES LIYAD

Everything Ends

Brosenthal then Robert then Brolden? An amazing sequence

Ohhh Robert's doing Nicholas' parts

Robert's vibrato

The strings!

The Brians waving at each other being Robert

Harmonies + the flute

Not Alone

Imma sob now

Jaime looking at the camera at the first "Baby, you're not alone"

Jaime being an ethereal goddess

Darren's little "I'm smilin'"

The upgraded riffs (especially Jaime's) at the end. Riff kings and queens

Ok I'm sobbing now

Voldemort is Going Down

Joey wait, I have not recovered yet

The winds here!

Lauren mouthing "me?" when Bonnie approaches her singing "now it's time to be a man" and then Lauren proceeding to go soprano

"AJ's gonna do a sick little piano riff behind me"

"We need to get so loud in here, that Joe Walker himself, hears us backstage and know that he's goin' down" (so... Joe Walker's like the Bakunawa then?)

The swelling and riffing music

Days of Summer

Gosh, when they point at the audience

YESSS love for the orchestra indeed

Meredith and Denise hugging while dancing

Darren's speech (but what has Darren seen to say "enthusiastic, but sometimes questionable fanart")

Hell yeah there better be a 20th anniversary

Goin' Back to Hogwarts (Finale)

Jeff's dancing in the back

When it spans to the audience

You can just tell their hearts are so full of love and happiness and it's damn infectuous

The "is okay good?" scene + Not Alone (Reprise)

Brosenthal being dramatic

"I came..." *clears throat* "... Home" (wait what if the name Homecoming is also based on that line?)

"audience whimpers"

The lighting

The delivery of "okay is wonderful"

The extra af slow-mo

@gangstertogangster so since we’re on a glee kick for the OCs, I figure now is about as good a time as any just to have more things that totally get said during domestic au lines.

Yelena: Veruchka that isn't how babies happen. Nika: Uh huh! You and mama are both girls and you have me! Yelena, eyes widening, sweats: ... Nika: Hey how did that happen anyway? Where do babies come from? Yelena, driving faster: Ask your mother. Nika: But you are my mother? Yelena: Ask your other mother! ~oOo~ Michael: Look, alcohol is an answer to any problem. It’s not always the best answer but it is an answer. So pass me my wine or not even God himself will be able to save you, Raphael! ~oOo~ Vasya: Nah, my Aunt Shauna loves Olive Garden. They have better bread. Michael: What’s wrong with my restaurant?! It’s authentic Italian! The real deal! Vasya: It isn’t Olive Garden’s. Duh. ~oOo~ Nika: Hey guys, do you mind if I ritualistically slaughter this chicken? Peyton, jaw dropped: Uh... yeah a bit. This is the stage where we’re, you know, about to have a musical practice. Not... make chicken nuggets. ~oOo~ Vasya: That bitch is crazy! He had me kidnapped! Adrian, looks away: ... Alexei: Ohmygod... ~oOo~ Jack: Papa, where do babies come from? Vladimir: ... Russia and Spain. Matt: That is not- Vladimir: My babies came from Russia and Spain, Matvey! Matt: Well if you want to get technical! Jack was born in Hell’s Kitchen! You idiot! ~oOo~ Mariah: Oh, Misty. Lucille is just... such a delightful child... Misty: Thank you, Mariah. I just... adore Honor... Danny & Shades, both sighing: ... ~oOo~ Matt: What's wrong?! Why are you bleeding?! Vasya, crying: I think I have internal bleeding! Matt: Oh honey. Internal means it's on the inside. Vladimir, smacking the back of Matt's head: Asshole. ~oOo~ Lucille: Breathe in. Now breathe out. Breathe in. ... Jack. Dani. Wake up. Vasya: They don't like meditating very much. Jack, snoring: ... Danielle, snoring: ... ~oOo~ Karen: You taught her how to treat a hemorrhage but not a period?! Matt: I didn't think it was important?! ~oOo~ Taka: I’m like the Malcolm X of our community! ~oOo~ Jack: Hey Siri, what was it like being poor and Asian? Marie: Terrible from what I’ve heard from my grandma. Peyton: Well, the mangoes aren’t as good in America. ~oOo~ Toly: I love fencing. I get to make new friends then stab them. ~oOo~ Vasya: I think I'm dying! Matt: Honey we're all dying. Vladimir, smacks Matt on the back of the head: What is your fucking problem tonight?! ~oOo~ Ravdí: Peyton, when you asked us to choreograph a dance number for this musical, you did not say that it was for Maddie’s zombie love story. Peyton: Yeah! Isn’t it a great idea?! Maddie’s story makes for a great musical and with you and Vas making a dance, I think this will be a big hit! Vasya, staring at Jamie: ... uh huh. Got this.... Ravdí: ... fiiine. We’re choreographing a dance number for zombies in love. Let’s go, Vas. ~oOo~ Bucky, wearing galaxy print yoga pants: Look my pants are out of this world so shove it. Vladimir: ... damn that was good. High five, Yakov. ~oOo~ Honor: Richard, I can taste your axe body spray. Get off of me! ~oOo~ Vasya: Well a drunk Stalin called me and told me that if I wanted Russia, he’d just give it to me! Matt: ... we need new Sunday dinner topics... Shauna: Ooh! I got one! Vladimir! You smell like melted cheese! Jack, whispering to Toly: You owe me five bucks. Eight minutes in and they’re screaming at each other. Matt, sighing: This is fine... Anatoly: I have vodka. Do you want some? ~oOo~ Yelena: If that boy so much as touches her I am destroying him. Natasha: I've already thought of ways we can hide his body. Yelena: I love you so much. ~oOo~ Michael: Both of my girls could kick my ass without even blinking and I find it unbelievably amazing. ~oOo~ Brad: Ooh authentic Chinese food! Diane: It's not Chinese, it's Asian! André: ... ya'll bitches be trippin'. ~oOo~ Richard: So I talked to your sister about who's the boss on this group project. Jack: Uh huh. How'd that go exactly? Who's in charge on your project? Richard: ... it's still unclear. Jack: Right. My sister is in charge, isn't she? Richard, sighing: I can't tell her no. ~oOo~ Maddie: ... why is there a live bear in the house? Marci: What? ... Ahhh! Bear! ~oOo~ Vladimir, saluting lazily: Aye aye captain. Yelena, ugly snort laughs: Shut up Vova. ~oOo~ Bucky: So how's that Eurofest thing going? Vladimir, pausing: ... you mean Eurovision? Bucky, snapping his fingers: Yep! That's it. ... don't look at me like that. I was closer that time than I was earlier. Vladimir: ... this. Is true. I don't even know what you said earlier. ~oOo~ Toly: Hey, Al? Alexei: Yeah? Toly: What was that? Alexei: An icecream commercial. Toly: No the fuck it wasn’t! Don’t you lie to me! ~oOo~ Jack: So you love my sister? Michael: Sí, more than air. Why? Jack: Would you be willing to take a bullet for her? Michael: ... yes? Why? Jack: I'll see you at the pier later tonight, Moretti. ~oOo~ Alexei: Man if one more person tells me that I am appropriating my own got dang culture Imma beat someone's ass. ~oOo~ Richard: I can't believe you said that! If you weren't a lady, I'd deck you! Vasya: You try and I'll have you on your back so fast you'll think you're out on a date! ~oOo~ Raphael: Wait, wait, wait! Hold on. You’re dumping me? For him? Nika, rolling her eyes: No, I’m dumping you, period. And then I’m gonna be with him. Period. If... that’s okay with him, question mark. Francis: Totally. Exclamation point. Raphael: Oh puke. Parenthesis, bold, underline. Michael, holding Smolya: Snort laughing. ... period. Raphael: Why are you even here? Michael: This is my apartment! ~oOo~ Yelena, after explaining a plan: It’s brilliant, right? Vladimir: Not brilliant at all. Yelena: Thanks for being on board. Vladimir: No. Not on board. Yelena: It means a lot. Vladimir: Big mistake. Very big mistake. Yelena: This will be wonderful! Vladimir: We are going to die slow, painful deaths. ~oOo~ Yelena: You get them! Vladimir: No you go get them! Natasha: What is going on out here? Yelena: We thought- Vladimir: Ah! No! There was no 'we'! Yelena: Shut up! We thought that the girls needed some life lessons... Vladimir: It was Lena's idea. Matt: Don't you dare tell me that Vasya and Nika, who are small toddlers may I add, are somewhere up there on that 100 foot tall building! Yelena: Okay, we won't. Vladimir: ... again, her idea. ~oOo~ Vasya: Fuck you! Dimitri: Later. Now shut up. I was talking. ~oOo~ Jack: I want to kill those guys! Vladimir: No! Matt: What a shocking turn of events... Vladimir: I don’t want you to bloody your beautiful hands! I will do it! ~oOo~ Vladimir: Oh congrats! You’ve made my seven year old look like a whore! Shauna: I think she looks great! Vasya: I think I want a leather jacket and combat boots now! Matt, groaning: Our seven year old is joining the mafia! ~oOo~ Rikki: I am a chapstick lesbian- is that the proper term for this? Because I’m not a lipstick lesbian, I’m definitely not femme, but I’m not entirely butch either? So I think I identify as a chaptstick les- screw it. I identify as chapstick! Just chapstick! Darla: What kind of chaptstick though? Sasha: Is it cherry? Because I see you as a cherry. ~oOo~ Marie: I’m like a Little Ceaser’s Pizza. Always hot and ready to go. Jack: Oh my god... Peyton: You’re gross. And I hate you. ~oOo~ Alexei: Toly’s a crackhead. Toly: I am not! I’m a motha fucking ganster! Alexei: See? Smokes crack. Andrey: I’m seeing myself out of this argument. ~oOo~ Yelena: All these screaming babies and yelling mothers and angry dads and annoying teenagers. They make me want to shoot up this mall. Nika: You cannot say that in public! Yelena: Why not?! It’s my second amendment right to shoot up a shopping center! Nika: NO! ~oOo~ Darla: I’m not much into BDSM. If I wanted to be whipped and chained up I’d just go back in time. ~oOo~ Peyton: Oh my sweet, poor, Japanese cherry blossom... Taka: Thank you. ~oOo~ Michael: This person wants us to sing ‘Happy Birthday’ to them?! What?! Rahphael, snorts: That’s not happening. What do they think this is? Applebees?! ~oOo~ Peyton: It annoys me so much when people come here asking if we have a table and then get so offended when we don’t have them because of incoming reservations. Jamie: Honestly! What do they think this is?! Applebees?! We are a five star establishment! ~oOo~ Anatoly: You three better eat these pierogies! I didn’t starve in Utkin for you to deny yourselves food! Alexei, Toly, and Andrey, sighing: Yes, sir... ~oOo~ Bucky: You are a whole ass menace to society! Yelena: I will live. ~oOo~ Wesley: ... I’ve lost Maya. Fisk: Again, Wesley? Wesley, sighing: Unfortunately. ~oOo~ Lucy: I fear nothing. Not even god. Dani, Vasya, and Honor, watching her drink a smoothie: You’re disgusting. Jack: Can I have some of your smoothie? ~oOo~ Daisy: Being an inhuman is genetic. Vladimir: She gets this from your side of the family, Matthew! Daisy: But... you two adopt- Matt: I know. Don’t ask. Go with it. ~oOo~ Ian: Ugh, what do I take for hangovers? Darla: How horribly caucasian. Marie, snorts: Ha! Darla: Well isn’t it?! Marie, shrugging: I don’t know. I get the Asian flush so I take medicine before drinking. ~oOo~ Vladimir: I wonder what she’s going to buy... Matt: I wonder where she got the money... Jack: Vasi’s buying a bag of pepperoni! ~oOo~ Shauna: Look, we all know Toly won’t get into Harvard otherwise- Toly: What if I don’t want to go to Harvard?! Shauna: Ugh fine! Yale then! Toly: But mom- Shauna: Harvard or Yale Anatoly Jr! ~oOo~ Vasya: At least you all woke up in a bed! I woke up in the garbage! Jack: Okay. But. That’s nothing new. Nika, elbows him: Don’t be rude. ~oOo~ Sasha: I was in the dumpster! The dumpster! Rikki: My mom is blue! Darla: So I can see that this is a very stressful time for you both... ~oOo~ Dani: Lucy’s gonna be a minute. Vasya: Did she wake up in the trash too? Dani: No, she woke up half Asian. Lucy’s having a full blown identity crisis. ~oOo~ Vladimir: Your house is full! Full of sadness and emptiness! Yelena: Alright first off, you’re rude. Second, you’re a hoarder! ~oOo~ Sam: We don’t need this! Bucky: Sam, need and want are two different things. ~oOo~ Matt: I may not have vision but at least I have taste! ~oOo~ Vladimir: Ooh! For realsky?! Vasya: For suresky! ~oOo~ Anatoly: No son of mine is going to listen to shitty rap about doing cocaine! Alexei, thinking to himself: Please don’t tell mom... Anatoly: And Alexei Anatolyevitch! I am telling! Your mother! Alexei: Noooo!!!! ~oOo~ Therapist: Mr. Murdock, I think that Ms. Natchios may be one of your triggers. Matt: Please! I don’t have triggers! I am fine! Vladimir, snorts and coughs to cover it up: Okay. Elektra: Suuure you are Matthew. Matt: I will throw this chair at you, I swear to God! Don’t test me! ~oOo~ Shauna, lunging for Wesley: Augh! I can’t take it anymore! Vladimir, watching her punch Wesley: Shauna has earned my respect. Matt: It only took you five years to give it to her... ~oOo~ Jack: I’m so American that my favorite food is a McDonald’s cheeseburger! ~oOo~ Vladimir: If all your friends jumped off a cliff, would you?! Vasya: I dunno! Maybe if they invited me! Matt, slowly rubs his temples: ... I have a headache now... ~oOo~ Yelena: I drive like I have nothing to live for. Which I don’t really. Vladimir: Remind me to never drive near you with my children in the car. Natasha: And remind me to drive Nika around from now on. ~oOo~ Rikki: What do Asian parents beat their kids with? Francis: I don’t know. Textbooks? Ian: Rulers with F’s written on them? Jack: Slippers? Marie, glaring: I’m judging you all harshly. Jack: But are we wrong?! Marie: They feed us! Francis: Well that’s not a punishment. Marie: It is if you don’t like the thing they’re making you eat. ~oOo~ Vladimir: Has anyone seen my son?! He’s about yay tall! Clearly gay! But we haven’t had the talk yet! ~oOo~ Yelena: SHOW ME LOVE! SHOW ME LOVE! Nika: Mom... what is going on?

Ravdí: It’s okay, I’m supposed to be at work. ~oOo~ Darla: Oh what do I know?! Only what’s best for you! Rikki: I’m self destructive. Darla: I was just kidding. Rikki: I wasn’t. ~oOo~ Anatoly: How’s your dad’s restaurant doing? Alex: Very well. Alexei: Grandpa deletes bad reviews off his facebook so it only has five star reviews. He sees two stars, delete! Five star, it stays. Alex: He needs to fix the roof. Anatoly: ... what’s wrong with the roof? Alex: It’s old. Alexei: It leaks. Alex: The AC needs to be fixed too. Anatoly: What’s wrong with the AC? Alex: It’s old. Alexei: It’s broken. Shauna: ... I love your dad’s restaurant! ~oOo~ Vasya: Does anyone know if the damage control shampoo works on PTSD? Adrian: What about emotions? Asking for a friend. ~oOo~ Yelena: Oh god it’s missing! Natasha: What is? Yelena: The... the thing! Natasha, turning to face Yelena with baby Nika in her arms: What ‘thing’, Lenosha? Yelena, sighing in relief: Oh thank god, you found it. Natasha: ... you mean our daughter?! ~oOo~ Francis: A four letter word starting with ‘c’. Go! Rikki: Cock! Jack: Cunt! Rikki: Ooh! Nice one. Vasya: ... mine is corn. Nika: Well that’s adorable. Darla: Cute. ~oOo~ Vladimir: So it’s just a girls night? Vasya: Yeah, we’re just going to see a movie, grab a bite to eat, talk to the dead, and, if we have time, try to commit arson. Vladimir: Okay, have fun and don’t come back too late! Matt: ... after all that you just let her leave?! She said she’s going to commit arson, Vladimir! Vladimir: No, she said they’re going to try! They have to talk to the dead first, Matthew! ~oOo~ Matt, on the phone with Brett: Yeah, hey, if you get a call about a fire, can you give me a call? No reason. ~oOo~ Ravdí: Hey! I waterboarded myself! ~oOo~ Honor: This is a three day vacation! Lucy: Where are we supposed to be sleeping?! Richard: Well I just assumed you two would be inside each other. Jack, spits his drink out: ... ~oOo~ Vasya: So I met this girl at this coffee shop this morning- Honor: Oh no... No no no no. Vasi. You will not come out of this alive. Vasya: Uh... excuse me? Honor: She’s clearly a cannibal. Have you looked at yourself? You’re clearly an easy target. You’re a ballerina and very well marbled. If I were stuck on a deserted island with no food, I would absolutely eat you first. Literally everyone just stares: ... ~oOo~ AJ, the highschool art teacher, very clearly drunk: Listening to Brad talk is like listening to a horny bear claw into a chalkboard. I’m not pleased. Matt: ... well neither am I with that in mind. Shauna: I’m going to throw up. Bucky: God I love PTA meetings! ~oOo~ Honor: Gay kid! Alexei, blinks a lot: ... Honor: Asian girl! Marie: ... Marie. It’s not a hard name. Honor: Asian girl two! Peyton, inhaling deeply: ... she’s a kid. Breathe... Honor: Panda Express! Jamie: ... I swear to god... Honor: Weird twins! Rikki and Darla, blink and roll their eyes: ... Honor: Creepy incest twins! Jack and Vasya: ... we are not- Richard: Okay! So theater club meeting is in session now! ~oOo~ Ravdí: Sloppy babies! You’re all sloppy babies! Dani: Maybe we shouldn’t be calling the freshmen that. And give them encouraging words of wisdom instead? Ravdí: No! They keep dropping their flags! Again, babies! ~oOo~ Richard: Aren’t most of you gay? Honor: How dare you! ~oOo~ Ravdí: I’m sorry. All this time I’ve been treating you like an unpaid intern. When what I should have been doing is treating you like a paid intern. ~oOo~ Jack: Buenos dias, fuckboy! Ian, screaming shrilly: ... ~oOo~ Alexei: We’re all going to die someday. Well. Some of us. Toly: If you figure out immortality you have to share. Alexei: Uh. No. You’re annoying. Andrey: Will you share with me? Alexei: Maybe. ~oOo~ Alexei: Let’s come together! Like Voltron! Andrey: I’m the leg! Toly, rolling his eyes, softly but with feeling: ... fiiine. Losers. ~oOo~ Jack: I wrote this song for my sister! Vasya, closing her eyes, softly but with feeling: Ohgodno... Jack: I wrote this song to tell her that I’m always by her side! Even when we fight! Vladimir & Matt: Aww! ~oOo~ Andrey: Sometimes I feel like Ugolyok films me while in the shower and is waiting to sell the videos on Craigslist. Toly: ... what is wrong with you...? Alexei: ... I... uh... kay. ~oOo~ Lucy and Honor, trapped in an elevator, staring at a creepy puppet on a bike: ... What the ... hell... The puppet: Hello, girls. Let’s play a game. Lucy and Honor, banging on the door: Get us out of here! ~oOo~ Dani: You’re not letting them out of the elevator, are you? Richard: Nope. Not until they confess their feelings. Vasya: This is maniacal... I like this plan. Jack: You are all. So fucked up. ~oOo~ Maddie: I’m going to start projectile vomiting any second now... ~oOo~ The Principal of the highschool: I say we release the hounds into the school. Nick, the highschool science teacher, eyes wide: Let us not do that. AJ, the highschool art teacher: I think it might build character and therefore I veto Nick. ~oOo~ Ravdí, screaming as she runs down the hall: Why are there so many dogs in the hallways?! Vasya: This is the opposite of a problem! Francis: I love them all! Nika, climbing up the lockers, and hissing: Leave me alone! Unless you’re planning on eating my math homework! ~oOo~ Vasya: I will stop at nothing until you are homeless and drinking gutter water. Richard: Ouch. You’re rude.

SU rewatch- S1E3- Cheeseburger Backpack

Okay, new sideblog! No more worrying about links! Let’s just cut right to the chase and dive right in to the observations from now on-

Ah yes, Jamie. The mailman/actor I don’t think even has a last name, the one I genuinely forgot existed before rewatching this ep. (Sorry bud!) Whatever happened to Jamie anyways..?

Major kudos for this beautifully candid screenshot I got here, what a LOOK.

Shortly after Change Your Mind aired, I saw a post somewhere pointing out how when Connie asked “Are you you,” Steven didn’t even bother to lift his shirt up to check if his gem was there after he refused with his Gem self, instead just confidently confirming, “I’m me!” In stark contrast, waaaaay back at the very beginning we’re presented with a young 12-yr-old Steven who still feels the need to present his gem as “proof” that he’s just as much a part of the Crystal Gems as the others.

Pearl, Garnet, and Amethyst all know very, very well how he came to be but it’s clear in the early eps that they even then need a bit of reminding that Steven’s far more than a regular human boy. It’s also super indicative of where he’s at on his journey of self acceptance. He’s not only trying to prove that he belongs to them, he’s still trying to prove it to himself.

At this moment, his sense of self worth is tightly wound up in their opinion of him.

(5 seasons later... “I don’t need you to respect me, I respect me-” Dang, I’m getting really misty eyed about the character development already, and I’m not even halfway into season 1! This rewatch can, and will kill me off. I guarantee.)

On Steven and the warp pads...

Amethyst: “Suck it in, Steven!”

Pearl: “Do you remember how to do this?”

While on a story level I get that they wanted to introduce the concept of the warp pads to an audience who didn’t know how they functioned through Steven’s fresh eyes, these comments intrigue me because they suggest that Steven’s barely ever used the warp pads. It’s a reasonable assumption that he’s just recently moved into the house at the temple at season’s start, of course... but the newness of it all makes it seem like this is only his second (or third or fourth etc) time. Did the Gems really not take him on any fun day trips? Not ever? I mean, maybe they just thought it’d be too much of a risk with Steven so young, but...

I dunno, on the rewatch this detail came as a bit of an unexpected surprise to me. I didn’t remember this.

In this case, this makes this episode super, super important, because it’s literally the first time they’ve let him tag along on any of their out-of-Beach City business at all. My baby’s first Gem Mission ;D;

*sniffs* I’m so proud.

I just think this screenshot is really funny hfshfjfs it has a lot of meme potential.

Steven, probably,, “ho shit I almost diED”

But real talk, Steven’s ingenuity here in crossing to the sea spire is great. This is but one of MAAANY examples in this show of how Steven, having a foot in both worlds, is able to think in ways the Gems never could.

Immediately after his near death experience, there’s a series of character interactions that perfectly sum up each Gem’s relationship with Steven and it’s absolutely precious:

Garnet gives his head a quick affectionate motherly scruffle.

Amethyst, like a true sibling figure, jabs a playful elbow right into his shoulder.

And Pearl, ever so loving and protective, gently touches his arm to gesture for him to continue along with her.

Pearl: “H-how did you know that would work??" Steven: “Well, if I were a shrimp, that’s what I would do!”

This kid has always been very good at empathizing with other people and beings, and tapping into their minds to see/feel how they conceptualize things. Even now when it’s purely Steven being Steven- no gem powers involved at all. With this in mind, it’s only natural that eventually he grows to have emphatic telepathic powers to LEGIT tap into people’s emotions.

Also- he distracts them with food. While the three Gems were ready to strike with attacks, he chooses to take the pacifist route. This shows just how good being around Steven is for them, too. All of the Crystal Gems are fairly peaceful on the whole as well- only using force if absolutely necessary- but Steven’s relationship with them has continued to teach them that there’s always another way. There’s always a way to solve conflicts that doesn’t fall to war.

Garnet: “What have you got?”

I have to imaging that for Steven- having Garnet, the de-facto leader of the Crystal Gems- asking HIM what his plan is feels great.

Also both Amethyst AND Pearl chanting “Cheeseburger backpack” is the most adorable thing in all the nine realms, I swear. In earlier eps they were a bit more doubtful of how helpful any of Steven’s bizarre ideas would be, but here they’re rallying in newfound support for them and aaaaa it’s precious :DD

Look at him, he’s so proud! (And so am I.)

By the end of course, Steven’s all about to fall into despair- he messed up his first Gem mission and they’ll probably never let him tag along with them again, he’s probably thinking.

And then, in the dire circumstances, he receives a response he likely didn’t expect...

Pearl: “You handled everything well under pressure. You did great!” Amethyst: “Yeah, 2 out of 4 of your ideas worked! That’s fifty percent!”

Steven: “Yeah, I guess you’re right. They can’t all be winners.”

Pearl and Amethyst’s praise of Steven’s efforts here are absolutely paramount in paving the way for his growth in confidence, in the end. In a wide world he’s still trying to make sense of and figure out his place in, they make him feel like he’s truly one of them in this moment more than they ever have (at least, with what we’ve seen) before.

In that way, what happens in this episode paves the way for literally everything else in this show moving forward.

Heathers UK: A Review by an OG Heathers Fan

Some of you may know this already, but the Heathers UK Cast Recording came out recently. I have been a fan of Heathers since the original Off-Broadway version in 2014 and after listening to this new cast recording, I have some OPINIONS. If you are an original Heathers fan then you probably remember how weird it was to go from almost everyone knowing what Heathers is (pre-Hamilton) to no one knowing anything about it (during Hamilton) to having a whole new ‘generation’ of people who love Heathers (post-Hamilton). In this review I will be breaking down each individual song and character portrayal in the new-ish version of Heathers and giving my overall opinion at the end.

Beautiful

OOBC: 10/10

UK: 9/10

Now, of course, the original song is iconic. Not just because it introduces each individual character and future concept, but also because it has the iconic line “September 1, 1989.” It’s filled with laughs and relatable lines galore. We start by feeling bad for this main character while at the same time being intrigued by what is going on in her life. I feel like the West End does a great job at respecting the original song while at the same time giving their own flare. My only complaints are, of course, some of the language used. Not only is it painfully obvious that Heather Chandler can’t do an American accent for shit, but it’s also slowly revealed to us that they have changed some of the lyrics. Now, of course, it is expected, given that this is a whole new production, it’s just that some of the lyrics that they chose to change make no sense. It’s a great song, and I love Carrie Hope Fletcher’s energy toward the end, but it does not in any way compare to Barrett’s original performance.

Candy Store

OOBC: 9.5/10

UK: 7.5/10

Now, don’t get me wrong. I LOVE the original Candy Store, I just believe that in some ways, it could be improved (VERY minor). However, the West End’s rendition of this song is frankly not great. This is the first song where the Heathers really get to shine, and I feel like they’re more a little dull in this song. The belts aren’t great, the American accents are very noticeable, and let’s be honest, Jessica, Alice, and Elle are the best Heathers ever. A very minor complaint that I had that you cannot even see in the cast recording is that they switched Duke and McNamara. It really messed me up while looking through pictures of this production. I appreciate the drama and energy put into this song, but it’s just not as strong as the original.

Fight for Me

OOBC: 8/10

UK: 7.5/10

Personally, I never really enjoyed the original version of this song. It’s a great song, but it doesn’t really stand out amongst all of the other songs in this musical. To me, it seems just like some kind of love-sick song that doesn’t really mean anything in the end. The West End does a great job of mimicking the original song, however, the arrangement of the music is not that great compared to the off-broadway production.

Freeze Your Brain

OOBC: 10/10

UK: 6.5/10

I freaking LOVE Ryan McCartan’s original production of this song. No matter how many JD’s I watch perform this song, no one is as good as Ryan. When looking at a picture of Jamie Muscato, he seems like the kind of guy who would be perfect for the role of JD. In other words, he ticks all of the boxes, almost like an off-brand Ken doll. However, his rendition of this song is absolutely terrible. He sounds like he’s trying, he really is, but he just BARELY has the range for this song. This ultimately translates into him sounding more like a weird theatre kid and less like a mentally ill teenager. I appreciate the effort, but the payout is not great.

Big Fun

OOBC: 10/10

UK: 7/10

When thinking about all of the obligatory ‘party’ songs in theatre (Halloween, The Dual, Revenge Party) ‘Big Fun’ almost always turns out to be my favorite. The energy, the craziness, the feeling of no regrets coming off of these teenagers. I just love every minute of the original song. However, this version does not in any way feel like the original. It starts off with the chords from the original that we all know and love, but they are being sung by the cast. Instead of just having the orchestra play them like a normal musical, they have the cast practically scream them at the top of their lungs. Although most of the original dirty jokes are still in the song, the high voices coming out of the cast through the entire 3 minutes and 42 seconds sound like they tried to make a Kidz Bop version. They really did try to create a good song, but it does not convey well at all.

Dead Girl Walking

OOBC: 10/10

UK: 6/10

I love, love, love Carrie Hope Fletcher, but this was nowhere near her best song in this musical. She tried to do her best, but it’s really not a good song. They changed several of the lyrics from the original song, which are very awkward for the energy of the song. Jamie Muscato does a terrible job at acting like a teenage boy who just a (kind of) random girl bust into his room through the window. The harmonies are almost ear-shattering and compared to Barrett and Ryan’s original chemistry, these two have close to none. This song was not as bad as it could have been, but I just had very high hopes going into this song.

The Me Inside of Me

OOBC: 8.5/10

UK: 8.5/10

Believe it or not, I don’t particularly love the original version of this song. It’s a good song, I just don’t find it to be one of my top favorite in the musical. In my opinion, the West End production does a great job of keeping true to the original song. There was nothing that really stood out to me as being worse than the original song. It was pretty much the same as the original.

You’re Welcome/Blue

OOBC: 2/10

UK: 9/10

I know this may not be the most popular of opinions, but I absolutely LOATH ‘Blue’. Frankly, it makes me feel extremely uncomfortable, and it doesn’t really add much to the story in the long run. The West End version replaced the dumpster fire of a song with a little number called ‘You’re Welcome’. Now I LOVE this song. It’s a perfect replacement for the original song, and it does an amazing job of showing the personalities of Veronica, Kurt, and Ram. I fell in love with Veronica’s new diary entries, and I believe that they did a great job of making it clear that Kurt and Ram are just two dumb white men. This song is the first in the musical that they completely replaced/added and it shows that maybe they should have just replaced the entire musical. The musical style is vastly different than all of the previous songs and, while the original musical is a classic, this song is absolutely amazing.

Never Shut Up Again

UK: 8/10

This is the first song in the musical that is completely new. It’s a glorious number that really truly shows Heather Duke. Now, I don’t particularly love the casting choice for Heather Duke; T’Shan Williams’s voice is not what I imagine for Heather Duke, but I do love the energy she puts into her performance. I love how this song gives Heather Duke a small spotlight for a moment and really puts a light on her opinions about her friendship dynamic. I also love how in this song we also get to see Veronica’s slow descent from her short moment of fame. Another thing that I noticed is that the style of this song is very similar to that of ‘You’re Welcome’, which just further proves my point about maybe just completely re-writing the musical. The style is similar to that of another West End musical ‘Six’, which I’m not complaining about, given how good that musical is.

Our Love is God

OOBC: 9/10

UK: 7.5/10

How much do I have to say this? I DO NOT LIKE JAMIE MUSCATO. Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure he’s a great guy, but I cannot stand his performance as JD. He tries his best, he really does, but Ryan McCartan is just 100 times better. The original song leaves you with a feeling of, ‘oh shit, what’s gonna happen next?’, but this version just kinda makes you think ’huh, cool’. It’s not completely terrible, but I just wish it were a little bit better.

My Dead Gay Son

OOBC: 10/10

UK: 9.5/10

This song is actually surprisingly really good. It just feels kind of awkward in some parts, but it’s pretty dang good compared to the original, despite the massive lyric change.

Seventeen

OOBC: 9/10

UK: 9.15/10

Yup, you read that right. I actually think this one is better than the original. Even though I absolutely adore Barrett Wilbert Weed and think that she is still the best Veronica of all time, Carrie Hope Fletcher makes this song just slightly better than the original. The passion and energy she throws into her performance makes Muscato’s performance bearable and is even better than the original. I don’t particularly love this song, given how boring it is in some ways, but this song made me truly believe in Veronica’s view on everything that had been going on. Carrie made me want to just help these poor teenagers and take them out of this terrible situation before it gets worse. Now, if Ryan McCartan were in this instead, I might consider making the rating a 10 (MIGHT).

Shine a Light

OOBC: 8/10

UK: 6.5/10

I don’t really like this song in the first place. It’s kind of awkward and makes me feel kind of uncomfortable. However, this does not mean that I don’t have some small part of my heart saved for this song. The West End took this song, completely ruined the arrangement, and added an actor who does a slightly okay job at playing an awkward high school teacher. This song kinda made me hate this song more than I already did.

Lifeboat

OOBC: 10/10

UK: 2/10

I had to listen to this song on repeat for like 10 minutes and I honestly don’t feel that great about that. I LOVE the original of this song; it shows that not all of the Heathers were completely terrible, and it’s absolutely beautiful in the long-run. I could listen to the original for hours, but I could barely listen to this song once. Sophie Isaacs’ rendition of Heather McNamara is really bad, and I’ll talk about that later, but I just really hate how she did this song. Heather McNamara is supposed to be the quiet, unsuspecting one, but Sophie Isaacs tries to make a big show of this character’s personality. I loved how in the original song, you could feel just how lonely Heather M felt, and in this version, felt none of that.

Shine a Light (Reprise)

OOBC: 10/10

UK: 5/10

I absolutely LOVE the original. It’s perfect in showing just how far Heather Duke has gone, and while this song does certainly show that, I just do not like this rendition at all. There’s something OFF about it that I don’t really like, and I really wish that they didn’t ruin this song. I mean, how do you ruin a 40 SECOND song?

I Say No

UK: 10/10

I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG!!!! I’ve been listening to this song ever since they released the single weeks ago, and it’s absolutely perfect. I love how it shows Veronica’s personality, it gives her a voice, and it is just a REALLY good song. I love Carrie Hope Fletcher’s voice. I love the beat. I love the lyrics. Everything about this song is perfect for the story being told in this musical. I could listen to this for forever, and that’s not an exaggeration. This is yet another song that was added to the musical and is somehow perfect in every aspect.

Kindergarten Boyfriend

OOBC: 8.5/10

UK: 8.5/10

Frankly, I don’t really love the original version of this song. I don’t really have anything against it, it’s just kind of boring. Jenny O’Leary does a really good job at mimicking the original song, while also making it her own. The arrangement for the music is a great tribute to the original as well. To me, it doesn’t really seem all that different from the original.

Yo Girl

OOBC: 10/10

UK: 7.5/10

WHY??? WHY DID THEY REPLACE ‘MISERABLY’?? What was the point of that??? The original line is pretty freaking iconic and does an amazing job at lowering Heather Duke’s voice and staying within the original language. That lyric replacement was so random. The song overall feels kind of like a joke compared to the original. Even though it still gives the same feel as the original, I believe that the original feels a little creepier. It isn’t a great rendition, and honestly, the original is MUCH better.

Meant to be Yours

OOBC: 10/10

UK: 5.5/10

Have I mentioned how much I hate the UK’s JD??? This was actually my favorite song when I was listening to the original cast recording, and this version is just so bad in comparison. Muscato is really trying to seem creepy, but it feels really forced. If anyone in this goddamn song could act for two seconds, then maybe I would take it a bit more seriously, but it’s so bad.

Dead Girl Walking (Reprise)

OOBC: 10/10

UK: 7/10

What the heck, Carrie? I had so much trust in you! I’m sure a lot of other people feel this way, but the original version of this song is amazing. It does a great job at conveying just how frantic and vital Veronica’s actions are. I love Barrett’s original performance, and I also really love Carrie’s previous performances, but this is not her best. At all. I’m not even completely sure what’s wrong with it. It’s almost if the entire song is flat.

I Am Damaged

OOBC: 9/10

UK: 8/10

I’m really confused about all of the lyric changes in this song?? None of them make any sense whatsoever. The song isn’t all that much different than the original other than the fact that I still hate UK JD.

Seventeen (Reprise)

OOBC: 8.5/10

UK: 8/10

Eh, it’s not that bad. I don’t really like the original in the first place, just because I’m not usually a fan of the final songs in musicals, but the UK version isn’t that different from the original. It was fine, but not really what I expected. It’s a pretty fitting ending for this musical production.

Characters

Alright, so now I’m going to give my opinion on each individual character. This is not necessarily a criticism as much as it is a criticism of the way this production portrayed this character. This is assuming that all of the original characters are a 10/10.

Veronica: 9.5/10

JD: 3.5/10

Heather C: 8/10

Heather D: 7.5/10

Heather M: 5/10

Kurt: 8.5/10

Ram: 8.5/10

Mrs. Sawyer: 6.5/10

Final Verdict

8/10

While I did not really like this production, I did appreciate all of the time and effort they obviously put into its outcome. Just from watching their social media, you can tell that the entire cast does have some kind of chemistry. The new songs may even be better than the originals. This does not, however, excuse the fact that the original is still much better. Nothing can every replace Barrett and Ryan’s chemistry on stage or Jessica, Alice, and Elle’s perfect comedic timing. As much as I’d like to say that this production did a great job at honoring the original, it was in and of itself its own thing. And that’s not really a bad thing. It just gives the production a weird feeling at the end. I enjoyed revisiting this musical and seeing just how much my opinions have changed on some of these subjects. Overall, this entire cast recording is one major bit of nostalgia for the original fans and something to scream over for the newer fans.

I Would Rather Not Love Anyone Chapter 11

"What?" She finds the energy to sit up. "We can. We really can. Jamie, I want you. I want you badly."

"I ken ye do. I want ye too. Bloody hell Claire, I have wanted you for over a year now. And seeing ye laid out so. I want nothing more than." He moves his head away. "But we can't."

"Why?" She reaches up and puts her arms around him and rests her head on his side.

"We are not married Claire."

"What? But, it is okay. Really. We can."

"No," he turns and smiles at her." I love ye Claire. I willna dishonor ye that way. Nor will I dishonor what my parents taught me. Marriage before the marriage bed."

"Wow. You are special. I want to argue with you but can't. Dang it."

He chuckles as he gathers up her clothes. "I feel the same, believe me."

"I do." His need of her was quite apparent. "Please Jamie. Let us be married soon."

"Oh aye. As soon as we can."

She was just finishing buttoning her blouse when there is a loud banging on the door. She jumps but Jamie is calm.

"Supper is getting cold James Fraser and I would like to meet Claire. Ye canna keep her all to yourself."

"Aye Jenny. We are coming out now." He looks Claire up and down and removes a piece of straw out of her hair before taking her hand and opening the door.

Jenny is a tiny woman. Standing a bit over five feet, her hair brown and curly is in a loose bun. She wears a dress of homespun but it is clean and well mended. Her blue eyes look Claire over her lips drawn in a disproving line. Claire tightens her hand on Jamie's. But, then her eyes and face light up and she pulls her into a tight hug. Jamie releases her and she returns it.

"Ye fool, Jamie, I ken ye want her. But ye could have found a better place then the barn. Yer lady deserves better." And Claire understands the meaning of her look. It was directed at Jamie.

"I ken that sister. We didn't." At her look, he adds,'" We didn't do that. Other errr things. But not that."

"Ahhh good. Well ye did something right. She looks quite satisfied."

"Janet Murray!"

And that is how Claire meets her future sister-in-law.

"Sorry Claire. I speak me mind. I am verra happy to have ye here. Jamie loves ye deeply. And ye love him. That makes ye family even before me brother makes it official. Come, let me show ye our home and introduce ye to me son."

Later, she sits on the couch with wee Jamie snuggled up against her. The darling boy had taken right to her. And she adores him. She had been shown all around the huge house, including Jamie's bedroom. It had belonged to Willy and she feels the sadness as she enters. But, with Willy and his parent's deaths, Jamie is now the eldest son, the heir, the Laird.

He enters quietly and just watches her. Wee Jamie snuggles close as she reads him the story. His heart lurches at the thought of their own bairn cuddled so. He watches until she is finished. Jenny slips in to take her sleepy son and he takes his nephew's place.

"Oh Jamie. He is such a doll. I can't wait to have our own."

"Me too Claire. I have something for ye. I didn't just inherit the Laird's bedroom. Jenny was gifted with most of our mum's jewelry. I gave Ian a lot of my pa's. But there are a few things. I ken I asked that last day we were together. But," he slips off the couch and gets on one knee. He pulls a ring out of his pocket.

"Will ye wear my mum's ring? Will ye marry me become the Lady of Lallybroch, past this ring down to our son or daughter some day for their own love? Oh Claire, will ye be my wife?"

She is crying to hard to answer and just nods, holding her hand out. He slips it on her and pulls her close sealing the engagement with a scorthing kiss.
