‘and sometimes it gets me when crossing your jet stream, we both did the best we could do underneath the same moon in different galaxies’ is so fucking devastating bc not only does it allude to call it what you want, but also all of the references across her work implying that what they had was fate, sent to her by the universe, divine intervention. all the imagery of ‘starry eyes sparkling up my darkest night’ and ‘once upon a time the planets and the fates and all the stars aligned’ and ‘he’s passing by rare as the glimmer of a comet in the sky’ come crashing down into the reality that they were always just outside of each other’s orbit
in peter, taylor spends the song talking about how she thought if she would just wait, the goddess of timing would fix things up and their time would come. he would grow up and come back to her, he would keep his promise of dealing with his shit and being there for her. in so much of her previous work, she talks about how he knew her so well, and now she is wondering if he can still read her. he was high above everything and could see the whole forest (her and her life) for what it was, but now he is so far high above that he can’t see it (her and their relationship) anymore while she’s still in the thick of it alone. they’re in the same difficult time, but their minds are working differently. same page, but on different lines.
she sings how she was fine with letting the lamp burn and waiting, she didn’t wanna come down, she kept her hope up, and she was okay with him being absent because she thought they’d gain perspective when he came back and it would’ve made their love better and it’d be worth it. but then she just realized that she doesn’t want that. she doesn’t wanna be betty, waiting 20 years of her life, thinking if he’ll ever be there. she wants more and she wants better. in their time together, he never grew up, so now she’s turning out the light and leaving.
'saving reference pictures on pinterest' and 'drawing the reference pictures you have saved on pinterest' are two completely different hobbies, and let's just say i'm only addicted to one of them
you'll be the prince and i'll be the princess, it's a love story, baby just say yes
three cheers for the newlyweds! i couldn't resist drawing something sweet with vina and manus, they're so adorable (and well, vina's not having such a great time this playthrough, so making it up to her with this. sorry girlie!)
WILDLY self indulgent actor Feenie art.. I think maybe Ivy University held a musical and Phoenix managed to land Seymour in Little Shop of Horrors because it doesn't get more theatre kid than that
(Also I was just listening to the soundtrack while I drew)
I let Larry be a good friend even though we don't see him in college, he has the spirt okay? I think he probably liked the weird finale LOL
