#actually operetta because it’s

Hello fellow fans and collectors, I have a question!!!
Is there a site or something similar for identifying Monster High accessories, clothes, shoes, etc????
If there isn’t (that anyone knows of) I’d like to make one, a database of sorts, so anyone who wants to identify doll pieces can go to that instead of posting somewhere and hoping someone will be able to ID it.
My thoughts right now are to start it as a tumblr sideblog because I can’t afford a website and don’t have much tech know how on programming and things. My biggest issue with using Tumblr for this is that it’s search function is pretty Shit so if anyone knows any alternatives please let me know (or a tumblr theme that lets you have links to other pages, then I could make separate pages for characters or accessories for people to go through rather than relying on search).
My plan is to take pictures solely of different pieces and face ups with a description underneath as well to be accessible. Each image would be tagged with the Character, specific doll, and type of accessory so for example “Draculaura, Original Signature Draculaura, MH Earrings” for Dracs safety pin earrings.
I have a sizeable collection myself for getting decent images of everything, but I don’t have everything. One of the reasons I’m thinking of Tumblr is to get some help from the community on pieces and dolls I don’t have, I suppose I could make a google doc to simplify things if anyone wants to help? That may be the easiest way for people to submit pictures easily if they wanted to help (I’d give photo credit too). And if anyone wanted a specific item ID’d they could send it in an ask. I also have ample time to go through stock images myself to ID things, so I can do most of the IDing myself
Anyways, if you read all this thank you!! Please please please respond if you have any thoughts or opinions this is something I’d really like to do if it’s not already out there. The focus would be MH for now

There are a handful of movies that I would make someone stop fucking me to watch, like Carrie (1976), The Prince of Egypt, and pretty much any half decent documentary on Pompeii
However, I've just now bought the 25th anniversary performance of The Phantom of the Opera at the Royal Albert Hall, and if any girl tried to fuck me while this was on, I would make her go home

dear mister gaiman,
every time i see crowley as nanny ashtoreth, he reminds me of a very amazing female impersonator who i grew up with and loved as a teenager and who just recently passed away as i had to unfortunately find out. his name was george logan and he played dr. evadne hinge of "hinge and bracket" with patrick fyffe back in the 80s and 90s.
i had completely forgotten about them until that particular scene with crowley. and upon googling how george was doing (since patrick died way too soon), i found out about george's death. i was (still am) very heartbroken, because they were AWESOME!!!!! especially their live shows / gala evenings. but it prompted me to re-watch their tv show again and i re-discovered my love for gilbert & sullivan operettas. (i could actually picture aziraphale listening to those every now and then).
in general i see a lot of crowley and aziraphale in evadne and hilda's personalities. one is dark, the other is blond. one is moody, the other is always cheerful and too pure for her own good. even the bit of naivity aziraphale has going on screams hilda to me. it's such a treat to find similar behavioral patterns like that and it makes me love good omens so much more now.
i just wanted to share this little thought with you without asking any other questions since i am sure you have a ton to answer.
i hope you are doing well. greetings from berlin.
That made me smile.
Here's a little moment of Hinge and Bracket for those people who have never experienced them:

just some boils and ghouls
Johnny has road rash on the right side of his body because my idea for him is heavily inspired by the torn prince from Thirteen Ghosts
I love Porter but I hate that he was a graffiti artist in basically a button down shirt and patterned shorts. Gave him something more utilitarian and urban
Operetta is big, and you will DEAL
I actually hate Viperines colors lol the soft pink is nice but the blue is so jarring

another hybrid doll, this time a magic mixies pixlings unia + g1 monster high operetta.
in moose's official photos for unia, she looked much closer in color to draculaura, but she's actually a perfect match for operetta's skintone (last pic). and with all her fancy face designs, operetta's carved neck and shoulder details don't look out of place. i did buff out her black and red arm tattoo though.
the pixling neckholes are much smaller than the monster high ones. i ended up having to use my dremel and a drillbit with a circumference of abt 3cm (the size of the largest part of the mh neck bulb) to drill it open wider. it isn't a perfect solution, because if you pull or push on her head too hard it'll pop out of place, but for display and photos it works well and she's got a full range of motion.

Monster High's most iconic moments in no particular order because I want to remember the good times
- "Frankie FINE, don't lEeEeAve me HeeEEre"
- The narration Frankie does after they fuck up so terribly that Cupid and Clawd end up in love
- "Go get him little fish guy"
- Garrot INVENTING a flower for Rochelle and also being locked in a basement for an unknown amount of time
- Clawd getting Operetta to give the fake SKREAM plan to Toralei, and their pretend fight
- Just Valentine and Whisp like in general, best villains in the franchise
- The shadow versions of the ghouls
- The speech Clawd and Robecca give the ghouls before the final match
- Empire by Nefera and Ramses De Nile
- Regrettably, Freshwater! Lagoona chugging water and crushing cups with her forehead, because it was so weird
- The snake forehead kiss
- Frankie Stein dying, ACTUALLY DYING and getting brought back to unlife
- The Trick or Treatment
- Robecca having the vampire's heart, and her connection to Elissabat
- Operetta using her voice to push Draculaura (that might just be me but it just hits the spot)

my g3 elissabat designs :3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
some of my ideas for her character under cut
i think it would be fun if she got turned into a vampire as a teen actress in hollywood some 100 years ago, bitten by someone she doesn't know. for these 100 years she has had no idea there's a monster society out there, and she's just been living as this cool immortal vampire, getting a bit of a superiority complex for being so old and powerful and Different. being this super special vampire became a big part of her personality! then though she found out about monster high (i don't really care atm how, i'm just playing), and she enrolled because well she never even finished school since she got kinda turned as a teenager, so it would be a good idea to go back to hs at least. and oh man there she finds out there's a whole monster society out there, and in fact she's actually SUUPER young for an immortal, like draculaura is 1600 (and also the fact that most vampires in monster society are generally born vampires, since it's taboo to turn someone and anyway turned vampires often just. never find out there's a monster society out there anyway, living in hiding god knows how long. maybe elissabat found out bc she lives a bit lavishly and someone figured out she's a vampire and helped her out? i dunno) so now she's been HUMBLED, after 100 years of seeing herself as a powerful old immortal being she suddenly finds out she's actually a complete noob and a bit of an outsider since she used to be human. i think it could be cute to have her have an arc where she gets over her old superiority complex and accepts that the fact that she isn't better than other people doesn't make her worse than them either, that life isn't a competition. maybe somethjng fun could be done with the vampire heart storyline, but idk i dont feel like thinking about it much, it made hardly any sense in the movie and i definitely want to scrap the whole Vampire Queen idea. but yeah! that's my elissabat, i had fun with her :3 <3 oh and i think her and operetta would be friends and maybe gfs, i think operetta would totally be a theatre kid and she'd think elissabat being an actual ex actress would be SOO COOOOLLL
sorry for the lack of coherence in this i'm sick and i'm tired i wrote this at 1am♥️

I love your interpretation for spectra character. I never got to read her diary but from what i seen her character is a bitch but the web show and movie toned it down
Thank you!!! She has this tone of voice to her that I think you can take in two ways. One way is to take her honestly, thats shes just kind of dumb and doesn't understand the consequences of posting peoples secrets all over the internet(the take the shows/movies go for because its easier to teach kids lifelessons this way probs), but so often she says things that imply she doesnt really like her classmates which caused me to read her obliviousness as more intentional.
Like actually her diaries are kinda fucked she like hates everyone its so funny. Like she calls her friends names(tho theyre pretty juvenile cuz its all for kids) implying Operetta is annoying, the fearleaders are all posers, and shes just in general such a shit stirrer, reporting on things without even Half the information, just cuz.
She doesn't like Ghoulia at first either and makes some rude comments about her which read as kinda ableist. But then Ghoulia pulls out a newspaper about her death(at least i think thats the implication) and Spectra cries super hard about it, kinda iconic of Ghoulia.

How about headcanons for operetta with a fem s/o who plays guitar?
I have literally never played any sort of musical instrument other than a keyboard once and when I was forced to learn the recorder in elementary school so I'm terribly sorry for any inaccuracies there may be
Operetta with a fem s/o who plays guitar headcanons
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Content warning(s): none that I can think to add
She would immediately be very impressed by your knowledge and talent, even if you're just a beginner. The fact that you spend time trying to learn how to play an instrument speaks to her music obsessed heart and soul
Operetta stays in the catacombs under the school for several different reasons, one of them being that almost no one above ground shares the same enthusiasm for music as she does, so when she finds out that you also love music naturally the first thing she does is ask you out on a date
Hopefully you don't mind talking about music and its related topics the whole time, because that's exactly what'll end up happening. Despite her tough as nails exterior, she actually gets a bit lonely being by herself in the catacombs all the time, so being with another ghoul and getting to chat about her favorite thing is like a breath of fresh air
She would absolutely love to brainstorm ideas for songwriting if you're into that kind of thing. In fact, she might even compose something herself and then give you the sheet music. If you end up learning it to play for her later on, she'll literally swoon, and Operetta isn't one known for swooning for anyone
If you ever need help learning a specific song or if you ever get stuck on a certain chord then she is more than happy to help you out with it. She may be a bit impatient and short tempered, but for you she'll try her best to keep her frustration to herself
Don't even get me started on if she finds out you're in a band or something. She's showing up to any and all practices, meets, and performances, no matter how big or small. Definitely the type of ghoul to wear a baby tee that says "my ghoulfriend's the guitarist" or something of that nature
Would she be a bit of a groupie? Maybe just a little, but for you it's worth the risk of ruining her bad girl reputation. After all, she's the one with the unlimited backstage passes as the partner of one of the band members, so why should she care if a few other monsters tease her for it?

Making a follow up post for my stupid ass MHA X Monster high x Ever after high x fucking Winx club??? Ehhh???
Tumblr media
Anyways…
Soooo answering this dude up here ^ @faemagic88 let’s just say I got a few ideas
So basically, for anyone who didn’t see my last post?
Quirk toddler uses quirk on Izuku, bakugo, and denki and sends them to monster high, ever after high, and Winx respectively
Lord explosion god dynamight and his fairy tale adventures
For ever after high I totally want bakugo to be apart of the school purely because he heard how the school has a lot of secrets and magical items that might help with his issue, so he decides to force his way in to get back to his universe ( somehow… he’s working out the kinks of his plan )
While there he’s definitely gonna throw a ton of kids for a loop. Not caring about royal or rebel because A. He’s from another universe and B. He just thinks it’s so dumb to follow the paths of your parents just because of something as silly as “destiny”
He’s the type of person who believes that you chose your life, and he’s not gonna be silent about it.
Is he gonna cause more drama in this school? Yes, but this school is already filled with it so whatever
I don’t know what fairy tail he would pretend to be. I think he might pretend to be the son of “Momotaro” from the story “Momotaro; the story of the son and the peach” where basically this boy is born from a peach, soon taken in by a couple. When the boy turns fifteen, he goes off on a journey with a dog, a monkey, and a pheasant to slay the demons on an island, before returning home to be with his family
It makes the most sense, as Momotaro is fairly popular in Japan- or so I’ve heard
But an alternate story I thought of was of him pretending to be the son of Kintarō, “the golden boy” who is a warrior who goes on many journeys throughout his life, slaying beast and saving towns n what not.
Neither story would explain his weird… “explosion magic” as people call it, but hell it’s the best thing that he gots so.
I was thinking of mimickings ever after highs small story structure and maybe have an “episode” where Apple white realizes that he doesn’t seem to care about her, her status, her story, or even her looks and how that kinda bothers her ( more like gets her all riled up. She’s not used to boys just… not even giving her a second look. )
And then another small “episode” of bakugo deciding to take part in a sport cuz… well… let’s just say daring and his group found out that if you tell Bakugo he can’t do something, he’s gonna do it just to show off
Thing is, cerise is in the sport as well in the opposing team, and maybe bakugos team is like “well most of them are girls maybe we should go easy”
Cue the “equal rights equal fights” from bakugo, and basically forces cerise to show off her wolf abilities if she even wants to try to actually win against him.
And… who knows maybe that’s when people realize she’s haft wolf or something lol
I was also maybe having him be apart of the Dragons games??? Like maybe he wasn’t gonna be apart of it, but when Apple white accidentally releases the evil queen and the evil queen he senses some shit is about to go down and thinks “ugh, god, not more bullshit”
Also maybe he gets his own dragon for the games by literally TACKLING AND SUBMITTING ONE OF THE EVIL QUEENS BAD DRAGONS so he could ride it and use it so he could be apart of it.
And yes, Goldielocks did record this for her mirror channel and a bunch of kids did just see one of their “new students” fucking wrestle a dark dragon just cuz he needed a dragon to be apart of the games
Also maybe bakugo finally talks about his… HIS… FEELINGS?1!1!2??2!2?2 GASP lol
But that’s enough for bakugo
Next up
Dekus freaky experiences
Ok so deku… doesn’t know what the FUCK anything is. He just appeared in like the monster high catacombs, got fucking lost in them til Operetta finds him in there.
She’d probably be like “woah hey aren’t you a normie” and dekus like “wh- huh???”
Course before the two can get more into it maybe the place starts crashing down. Cue deku quickly realizing what’s happening and using his quirk to save operetta, there for showing that he definitely is a lot more then JUST a normie
Operetta concludes that deku might be a hafta like Henry Jekyl, and takes him to monster high to help him
Cue deku realizing that he’s NOT where he’s suppose to be. Maybe he tries to explain it to operetta, but when she simply gives him a weird look and ask if he’s ok, he realizes that no one is gonna believe him. So with a deep breath and shaky smile, he simply goes “maybe I just hit my head to harshly…????”
Which- yes, that’s even weirder, but he isn’t about to explain how he’s a human with a quirk when it’s so obvious that everyone is weary of him because of his human look ( he can always tell when people look at him with pity or fear. Being quirkless for most of your life then suddenly having a terrifying, powerful quirk will teach ya that ) so he does his best to just seem normal
Maybe he’ll pretend he didn’t know how he got here, talks to headmistress blood good and asks if she could PLEASE let him stay cuz “he doesn’t remember anything”
And- she’s nice, so she’ll let him stay just as long as he promises to help around the school anyway he can ( she is letting him stay here for free, it’s the least he can do ) and deku agrees to it
Now deku is… SOMEHOW a student at monster high. Everything is weird, but… here comes Frankie, who totally gets his feeling. She helps him out, teaches him all he needs to know, and helps him out- cuz, she knows what it’s like to be the new ghoul in school, and she can tell he definitely needs the help.
Cue Izuku befriending her, and maybe some of her friends.
Of Course, he still wants a way back home, so he’s gonna do everything in his power to do research into this world and ( hopefully, maybe ) try to find something to help him back home.
He’s probably not gonna tell the ghouls what’s actually happening with him til he literally has no where else to go to.
Cue the ghouls helping him go back to his comic book like world ( and maybe finding a way to get there cuz… heroes???? Villains??? Sounds like a scare-tastic experience! )
And ysaaaa they find a lot of secrets in this school. Like a lot. Oh dear
Also I totally want a scene where toralei just drills it into izukus head that he definitely isn’t gonna be all accepted here just cuz he’s “1/3 of a monster” and that he’s definitely gonna have people having it out for him because he’s mostly Normie in nature.
Idk, maybe Izuku might have some dejavú about feeling excluded because of his apparent lack of something
But it’s ok cuz Frankie would definitely cheer him up by saying “haft normie or not, you’re a great person Izuku. Don’t let someone like Toralei get under your skin, she doesn’t know what she talks about. Me and the ghouls care about you, Freaky flaws n all. And nothings gonna change that.”
And have him feel so… happy, because let’s be honest he was only accepted back into society cuz of his quirk. It would probably heal the poor little quirkless kid within him because she basically just told him that he matters, not because of what he has but because of who he is as a person and UGHHHBBN
But that’s enough of deku. Let’s talk about… denki??? How did you get here-
Denki kamanari and his strange, magical journey
Admittedly, I don’t have a lot of ideas for this one. I seriously need to rewatch Winx club, it’s been ages for me lmao
But the basic idea is that he appears right near “Redfountain School for Specialists”
Naturally, he’s freaking out cuz WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS PLACE
After a while of freaking out, he looks up to see the WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT??? THATS A GIANT ASS PLACE
But as he looks around, realizing that there’s only trees for miles on end, he decides to head into the school to try and find someone to help him. Because… where the fuck is he? He just wanna go back to Izuku and Bakugo :(
So he heads in. I was thinking that it’s probably assembly day, and the kids around him just assumes hes just some poor new kid who’s about to get in trouble cuz he’s not in uniform. It’s an important meeting for the school, so he just gets dragged in with a bunch of boys who are about to be late.
I imagine he’s just trying to ask questions, sees these boys running, and says “what’s going on??” And they turn to him and go “dude, important assembly today! We’re about to be fuckin late, come on”
And they just run off.
And welll- denkis confused and weirded out but… if it means finding someone who can find him, then he’ll just follow behind and play along for now
Long story short, he ends up accidentally becoming a part of the school cuz- just- no one is questioning this yellowed hair boy with a lighting streak on the side. He’s not the weirdest thing they’ve seen. Not to mention- school in the middle of the forest, not really seen by outsiders?
Most people probably wouldn’t think it’s an outsider. I mean… who the fuck would be out in this forest anyways?
And well- it’s probably only haft way though does denki actually tell them what happened to him. And maybe they don’t believe him at first, but once he shows off his “magic” they might start to believe him.
Thing is, the show never really went into this school a lot ( at least what I remember ) sooo I might just make up a bunch of shit for this
I mean the other plan is just to have him be in the fairies school, they quickly realize he’s not suppose to be here, and probably do everything in their power to bring him back to his old world so idk
BUUUTTR the idea of denki learning to fight with a sword is cool and funny at the same time SO-
Also also I’m definitely gonna take some shit from the scrapped monster high x ever after high movie that was suppose to be made but never was, so that’s actually a perfect way to get deku and bakugo back together
Not to mention I’m probably gonna have Cupid ( who actually appears in both shows as an important side character ) to be involved. I mean, dimensional traveling? That’s kinda her thing, I think she would catch wind very quickly that bakugo ISNT from a fairy tale story.
But uhhh yea that’s all of my ideas I guess. Do with them with what you want lmao

What your fave mh character says about you pt 5
Operetta
I know you kissed your best friend at a sleepover and it meant nothing because you're straight stop justifying it to me. Your boyfriend isn't a bad boy he belongs to the prison system. You can't go everywhere saying "thats so lana del rey cherry coke Priscilla Presley core". You're not coquette you're mentally ill. If I hear you say "I was born in the wrong generation" I will remind you of your homosexual thoughts.
Johnny Spirit
Elvis has been dead for 45 years please get over it. Your car isn't vintage it wants putting out of its misery. You think not saying thank you to the bus driver is an act of rebellion. I love that leather jacket but please wash it every now and again. You're hair style is so cool, when do the Grease auditions start? You watched Crybaby growing up and this is your personality now.
Toralei Stripe
HELLO LGBT COMMUNITY. You're either a butch or want a butch to punch you. An actual menace to society. Ginger cat energy. You believe in womens rights but also their wrongs. I bet you love a fingerless glove. You say you want a black cat femme but run away when women look at you.

We know that TIG can sing, and so can some of his characters. If pressed to sing, which songs would TIG characters choose?
Tumblr media
---
― Twig, growing up as a rich boy with, if we read between the lines, draconic parentage with possibly high standards and rather perfectionistic attitudes in education, the only things a young Terry would sing is some kind of classic tune instructed by an onslaught of private tutors hired by his parents for the explicit purpose of training their son's voice or the Zemirot sang around the table during Shabbat, Jewish kid that he was. That's it for you. The first vestige of actual freedom and individual expression, came, perhaps, ironically, in the military, in the early 1960's, surrounded by soldiers from all classes and walks of life, everyone with their own flavor of music, songs and tunes of the decade and my god, if the high of that didn't hit a young Terry quick and hard to the degree it re-wired his brain chemistry, I don't know what else to tell you. Self-control and liberty gained, Twig, would, given the chance, sing or hum anything just because and he was pretty damn good at it too. Suppose when it was just him, John Kreese and Ponytail in the bunk all by themselves, a young Twig might merrily sing something while they conducted their chores together; moments of calm before the storm.
― Terry Silver in the 80's gives a mocking and taunting edge to everything he does because he's tough, he's powerful and he's at the top of his game and he's fairly shameless and despicable when he wants to be which means, around this era in his life man could do anything from busting into an operetta with expert proficiency, because if he does something it will be done perfectly or sing into a mic like he was born to sing into a mic, but will do neither seriously because there's veiled cynicism and an ulterior motive behind it. He's always laughing behind the eyes and yes, you're the joke. Imagine him singing We are The World during the height of a famine in Africa (Ethiopia 1983-85) he might've contributed to by having a major factor in the continent's pollution through Dynatox and trying very hard to seem very heartfelt and genuinely empathetic as he does it for a non-profit organization meant to help the poor (Look! He's helping!) or in equal measure, being at a black tie event fundraiser and singing some tune for (reads smear on hand) ah, yes, children in need. Either ways, the audience esthetically clapped and Mr. Silver gleefully ate up the praise being the center of attention like the big, smug snake he is.
― Old man Terry, if prompted to sing, simply wouldn't. He's past the point of singing, regardless of the fact he's a fierce, deep voice that's more than educated for it. Sure, there must've been a garden party or two where some rumbunctious guest must've prompted Mr. Silver charm all those gathered with a song or a tune on the piano but Terry might've responded with an equally charmed smile and had the obnoxious guest singing for him instead (as a very concealed punishment and veiled hazing ritual hidden beneath layers and layers of relaxed politeness) --- yes, who's to tell Emile, for example, didn't end up entertaining the whole party because Terry turned the tables around on him? Or god knows what sort of various humiliations he put Stingray through purely because he could and because it's awfully easy to imagine him saying 'Sing, Raymond.' as he pours himself a glass of Cognac, eases himself into the nearest armchair and has the buffoon shakily sing, for quite literally, his life. Nothing's for free, right? But, see, that's the point: Terry's convinced he's the earned the right sit back and be the overlord. Not that he ever doubted it. He's Grandmaster. He's Sensei. He's Sir. He's Mr. Silver. He's the Dragon. The dragon doesn't sing. The dragon rules. If he sings and plays it's because he wants to, mostly for himself.
---
― Terry McCain undoubtedly sings something Irish, to nobody's colossal surprise because everyone who even vaguely knows the man knows for a fact that this is his go-to choice of music each and every time; some folk tune from the old country passed down through many generations, until the person it originated from is long since forgotten in his family and all that remains is a memory of a memory and Terry's rendition of it, that is, for all intents and purposes, spectacularly good and catchy, especially when he follows up his own song with a tune he plays on a piano --- a thing culturally near and dear to him, and it's surprising with what gusto, passion and emotional charge he does it with, the same way, Catholic boy, born and raised that he is, it is not entirely shocking to find him being very apt and capable of delivering a church melody that could bring a parish choir member to absolute shame and in times like these it is abundantly clear that The Detective is awesomely multi-talented, and that if it wasn't for his career in law enforcement, one in music would've suited him just as well, if not better.
― Cash cannot be persuaded to sing because he doesn't care about the pursuit, finds it a waste of his time and quite frankly, he'd be most likely to glare if it's ever suggested to him --- the most he's willing to do is absent mindedly and very quietly hum some real or imaginary tune while he's waiting in ambush, tapping his gloved finger on the steering wheel, car parked a couple of blocks down as he carefully scopes out a target and patiently lays in wait for his cue, sipping on a cup of black instant coffee --- and even that only if his wait proves to be very, very long. His life is one of excess tension and it's quite literally no song (pun intended) nor is there any time for it and when there is, there's little place for yearning left. In fact, the man undoubtedly doesn't remember when was the last time he genuinely had time or the desire to switch on the radio and deliberately sit down and just listen to music for its own sake. But, if this man ever stalked someone? He's never likely to forget the music he's heard them listening to when they thought they're all alone. Undoubtedly, they're the very tunes he later absentmindedly hums.
― Gus Travis likes his sea shanties because his dream was quite simply put to buy a boat one day and sail out there, live off of the great, wide blue, but it's an ambition that never really came into fruition in the fullest sense, bogged down by the career criminal in's and out's of his dalliances on the wrong side of the law. It is what it is. Nevertheless, he enjoys the notion of a life at sea and everything involved in it, including the associated tunes, songs and music, not that he sings with any positive notion behind it, a full heart and joy either, more like, if Gus ever sang, he'd sing it almost mockingly, yo ho ho, while dangling a live victim upside down over a shark tank, mocking both the poor, unfortunate soul he's about to feed to the fishes down below and mocking himself, in a way, perhaps without even realizing it or wanting to admit that that's precisely what he's doing, because this is what his life has come to and everything he's ever wanted has been slipping further and further away from his fingers with each passing year or has, for the lack of a better word, gone to shit.
― Jan Valek is a medieval Bohemian clergyman, so, utilizing some form of logic, if he ever sang, it could be some old lullaby in Czech that lingers on the very edge of memory, sang to him by who knows who and who knows when, perhaps a mother, a kindly family member, someone from where he used to live when he was human and very young at that, long before he took his vows, or he'd sing some religious hymn in Latin in a voice that could freeze over the full moon with it's haunting beauty; a remnant of a bygone time when he was mortal and dedicated to the service of God, all association with music intricately tied to a more vulnerable time when he wasn't accursed and condemned, now, his song resembling a howl in the dead of night, a phantom's call slashing through the darkness, something chilling and gorgeous that is hard to explain, but certainly not entirely human. The type of thing you hear and you no longer belong entirely to yourself, falling under a vampire's spell, rather, you go out there, looking for the source of whatever it is you heard, mesmerized.
― Jack Blaylock, or rather, Timothy Calloway is All-American; irregardless of the fact that he lives in Japan, made his life in Japan, is embedded in the culture (and its Underworld) of Japan, operates out of Japan undercover with the facade of an Expat like any other, and hey, for all we know, he was born there too, which might make his attachment to all things American profoundly fascinating, no less the fact that if he sang, he'd not only sing something American, but something profoundly anachronistic and belonging to a bygone and nearly idealistic era he never even experienced himself, the same way he either never experienced his actual homeland or experienced it so little and so long ago, one can consider him remotely estranged from it (never say this to his face). So, knowing all of this, it is easy to envision Jack softly singing something by The Harptones, Bobby Darin or The Platters as he cleans his sword, produces his blades, checks his firearms with an immaculate attention to details, puts on a crisp, clean button up shirt, preparing for his next hitjob.

Thoughts about new Operetta doll?
I actually quite like her look, but...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I mean this whole outfits suits her, even this mermaid dress (which are like damn curse for me rn) I actually really do like this whole aesthetic, because even this damn dress suits for her 50-60 highway vibes (Operetta was one one of my fav ghouls, after Robecca, Venus, Draculaura and Ghoulia XDD)
But this screening, dear primus, what happened with those eyes???
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Like what do you mean it's the same fucking person??? This makeup would be alright for me if they change eyebrows and those horrendous eyes
And imo mattel is giving on a back of the box AGAIN fucking photo instead of art of the character, and it's so BORING. Idk what happened there, but someone who chosen to make here photo and on disgusting awful looking hoe!!! I hate Lenore-!!!
But it's topic for another post hihi uwu
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Besides I think it's really cute that she has Memphis on her bow uwu
Tumblr media
And idk If it's only me or she just has less deep scars???XDDD

Hear me out Sarah Screams,Johnny spirt, and Operetta listening to music on a record player
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This was more meant to be a character design challenge, but now that I have their designs down, maybe I'll revisit your idea! As for now though, here's Scarah And Johnny!
I'm gonna put this under a read more because in turned into a lot.
For Scarah I tried to lean a lot more into the 60's mod fashion for her, and tried to limit the olive green in her clothes (I always though it was kind of an odd choice)
I don't really ship her with Invisibilly. They always seemed to be together out of convenience rather than actual attraction. Scarah isn't really into the dating scene, but she does have a not-so-slight crush on her beastie Iris, and can't stand seeing her with that meathead Manny Taur.
She's very studious, and tutors the underclassmen at Monster High. As such she becomes quite close with Twyla, and the two bond over their introverted natures, though Scarah does want to break out of her shell a bit. She learned telepathy so her peers wouldn't freak out whenever she opened her mouth, but somehow the rumor spread that she could actually read minds, so a lot of her classmates still avoid her anyway. (Huh, wonder who spread that rumor...)
Regardless she still has her beasties Iris and Hoodude to depend on.
Now onto Johnny
Dude is a super loner. It could have something to do with spending so long in detention, though rumor has it that he was always that way. The only monster he seems to genuinely enjoy spending time with is Operetta. Anyone else, he'll only hang around to get something out of them. (He'll tolerate Heath for a few moments if he forgot his lighter at home)
That cigarette does nothing for him. He only smokes them to look cool. He'll tell anyone who asks that he died from lung cancer and then blow smoke directly in their face. No one knows if its true or not, dude lies all the time.
Everyone refers to him as "Johnny Spirit". Operetta is the only one who just calls him "Johnny".
I don't know why, but I feel like he and Romulus would have beef. For whatever reason they just don't vibe, and everybody around school is just waiting for them to brawl. As a proud pack leader, Romulus hates how much of a lone wolf Johnny is, and Johnny just doesn't respect his supposed role whatsoever.
He also finds Spectra incredibly annoying, as she's always trying to dig into his business. He has a mild respect for Toralei, but rejects any of her efforts to become friends. Other than Operetta, Invisibilly is the only other monster he regards as something close to a friend. He finds his pranks entertaining and will try to get in on them from time to time.

can u make an entire list of crimes or ethically questionable shit all enstars characters have made ? ik its a lot to ask so feel free to decline
Hi anon, unfortunately as you said, that's a lot for me to handle </3 however, I understand you're searching for this to form your criteria or maybe because you're curious on "oh, is this really such a dark and twisted franchise as people claim?"
So I compiled a couple of important stories that you should read if you want to get the whole view of what's going on.
↳ here's a useful guide my friend Yue made on how to read the wiki stories through the wayback machine
Proceed under the cut to see the compilation.
———————————————————
! era
Main story — I've said this multiple times but reading main story is so so important (you can also watch the anime but I'd still recommend reading).
EP:Link — THIS IS. LITERALLY SO IMPORTANT. EP:Link is a huge part of the story and it makes the connection with !! story, so you should. obligatory read through this.
———————————————————
Reminiscence Events
Ok we're actually entering war era here. it's recommended to read these after already finishing main story (up to before SS should be fine) but I'll still link them here.
Crossroad
Checkmate
Rocket Start
Meteor Impact
Marionette
Element
Warning that these may contain mentions of war, death, cults, suicide, violence and overall very high depression levels.
———————————————————
Other stories
These are like. my personal faves if you want to discover how dark can this franchise get.
Gang
Star Festival
Shinsengumi
Human Comedy
Setsubun Festival
Wonder Game
And like there are a ton more. i wanted to add requiem and operetta but I thought that'd be too much and like. stop
———————————————————
!! era
Disclaimer. Since the wiki translations got took down in Augusts, most of these cannot be found in the wiki (even when using wayback machine) I'm still putting the links to their wikis in case you're curious, but if you want to read, I'd recommend searching for tls here on Tumblr, on Dreamwidth or Twitter (there are a ton of livetweets I promise).
Main story — Yes, the one that is currently getting tld in engstars. first part is kind of whatever to me personally, but it gets interesting as it advances.
SS Arc — THESE ARE INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR CRIMES. the SS are full of dirty dark stuff everywhere. you'll meet Gatekeeper, the !! antagonist who's just a neverending can of worms.
Reminiscence * Obbligato — yes. we got a reminisce in !! era. very important in case you like Alkakurei or Eden (or if you're interested in Gatekeeper and Godfather lore in general).
———————————————————
Other stories
Ok I'll admit I'm very biased and I don't read through everyone's events (specially since the wiki got taken down. finding the tls </3) but I still selected some faves
A dark nights passing
Antique Legend
Night Club
Ariadne
Black Snow
———————————————————
OK THAT'S EVERYTHING. I know this may not be what you were looking for. but if you really want to learn the crimes, why not read them yourself? I'm just trying to help in case someone wants to get invested into this.

modern starters (gen 5 onward) are based on different themes, or believed to be. This is the fourth part of a 6 day series about starter trio’s.
Gen 7 does not have a clear or confirmed theme, please keep that in mind for this part! Most of this is speculation. There are 2 things people think the starters could be themed around, more D&D/RPG classes or "villain, hero, damsel."
Decidueye in this case is either an archer or hero. I don’t think I’d have to explain the archer thing, because it has an entire bow as a signature bit of its design. The hero part comes from it sharing similarities to Robin Hood, the classic English folk hero. 
Incineroar would be a warrior/brute or the villain. The warrior/brute comes from it being based off of wrestlers and being a hard hitter. Whereas the villain role comes from it being a wrestler and dark type. In Japanese, the name for dark type is actually evil type, which explains why this would make it the villain.
And then you have Primarine, our bard or damsel in distress. It’s based on opera singers with its signature Z-move being called “Oceanic Operetta.” So it wouldn’t be weird if it’s role in an RPG would be to be the bard. And the damsel part is based off of being a very effeminate pokemon. (Though Primarina can kick ass, we love a girlboss)
Now I didn’t mention it before but another pretty popular theory is that the starters are based on zodiac signs. Decidueye being a Saggitarius due to it being an archer, Incineroar being a Leo due to it being a cat-like animal with somewhat of a mane around it’s face and Primarina being an Aqaurius due to its water type and flowing hair. And another theory is that they are performers on a stage. There are a LOT of theories around their theme, and this isn't even all of them.
