I think my favourite thing about starkid is that the female characters actually feel like characters. I think it shows especially in Della- she's such a messy little gremlin. Usually people would make the self sacrificing female character some sort of holy virgin, but this woman is a disaster, and that's what's great about her. Lex? Poor little meow meow. Steph? Absolute simp. Emma? No thoughts, just weed and dogs. Becky? Wet cat of a human. Even looking at older stuff, like trail to Oregon or twisted, or even me and my dick. Their female characters are just as silly and loveable as their male characters. Is it the bare minimum? Yes, but it's still great.

🗣 DELLA WHERE'D YOUR HAIR GO?!??!
click for quality! (please)
reblogs = 🥰 / reposts = 😡
ohhhhh man. So the entirety of VHSCC has its grip on me, but especially this part of the show (Panic Attack: The Song, my beloved <3) and what started as a mindless sketch got my brain going and here we are 19 hours later, lol.
also Della and Jim now own a solid 80% of my heart??? I will absolutely be making more art of both of them and that is a threat.
if tumblr likes me today, there'll be an alternate version & close-ups under the cut! 😎👉🏻👉🏻
I spent so much time on the clothes patterns so please appreciate them lmao 🥲👍🏻

VHS Christmas Carols Spoilers
a bunch of my favourite parts and reactions in the VHS Christmas Carols bc i think it needs more love (its incredible btw and definitely worth the money)
i will never get over curts acting choices for this line, the little laugh before saying it and his FACE OH MY GOSH HIS ACTINGGGGGG
maybe the real gift was the love we had for each other and the sacrifices we were willing to make to make the other one happy
these three and their vogue-esque gay ass little song is the only thing that matters to me
it took me forever to turn that into a gif so i hope you enjoy it as much as i do
their reactions to the match girl showing up + brian mouthing "what the"
again laurens reaction to the match girl
ugh ATE
smth i only noticed on like the third rewatch - you can see scrooge holding and inspecting the watch he bought off jim when he bumps into the match girl
this is here bc they all look very good in that lighting especially lauren
embarrassing to admit it took me until here to realise that the match girl died
ajs little smile makes it feel like scrooge is taunting bob here and i love ittttt especially as hes calling him bobby
THIS
the ghost of christmas past jumping rope + scrooge being confused and doing it too
meredith lighting the ghost of christmas past's cigarette
scrooge basically begs his younger self in this scene, i absolutely love ajs choices in this show as scrooge. also i am such a huge fan of this casting not only because they are both phenomenal actors that i will never shut up about but they genuinely look similar and it works very well in this context
scrooge honey you cant fight the christmas electricity
HUGE dad energy
the top of his tiny tim shirt poking out + he looks really good here
funny little thing i noticed - his shirt isnt buttoned, just folded over itself. in the actual show you can see him tuck it under his jacket those quick changes must be killing them
the way he begs them and they dont even react.. paired with the music and this is horror movie level stuff
he got his watch back :,)
no im not crying, i have allergies... yea im allergic to being sad
i went back and made it a gif bc LOOK. LOOK AT HIS ACTING OH MY GOD. IF YOU COULD HEAR THE WAY HE SAID IT YOUD BE JUST AS INSANE AS ME HOLY SHITTTTTTT
this show is incredible go rent it right now if you havnt seen it, go rent it again if you have, and sacrifice all of your money and worldly possessions to starkid thank you and goodnight

Please give me the Cratchits as bickering, Victorian sibling co-parents just trying their best.

vhsccs spoilers (I guess?)
So was nobody gonna tell me that Della is Belle's daughter? I'm watching Meredith's vhsccs tech week vlog, and they just drop that info out of nowhere around the 8:50 mark. I mean, I guess it makes sense, but damn, I was not expecting that, and now I'm kinda obsessed.

I watched the digital ticket and I am going to need some time to Process the show (ohmygod it was absolutely amazing) so in the meantime while my brain is recovering from all the Christmas electricity it got zapped with, here's a dumb meme thing bc that's what MY three brain cells are capable of rn <3
i love Jim and Della so much they own my whole heart and omfg Spektr and Gruelle and Bred are all so iconic im obsessed with them

Jim: I don't know how to tell you this, but... I love you
Della: That's great, Jim. Especially considering the fact we've been married for 6 fucking years

Genuinely, I just love Jim and Della so much, and the fact that, even with just a short story like this, we can already tell just how much the two love each other really is a testament to how absolutely amazing Curt and Janaya are as actors.
