#cool as i think i am reprise

[sweaty-confetti]

it’s always “i love you” and never “hey steph…if things were different, would you want to go to homecoming with me? / i’d like that, pete. i’d really like that.”

I think the funniest thing about listening to the soundtrack is just the tonal whiplash of..

"I never wanted you anyway..."

Sad slow quiet piano for a few seconds

Just realized I never uploaded the final of this animatic here! Hi everyone! This is an animatic I made last month for the song "As Cool As I Think I Am (Reprise)" from the musical "Nerdy Prudes Must Die"! I had such a blast doing this, and I've become such a huge fan of Starkid in the process. They even played this on one of their livestreams recently! It was a huge honor! Love those guys haha.

Anyways, I hope y'all dig this, and I hope it makes you cry =] <3

During The Summoning, when Wiggly first answers Steph that in exchange for getting rid of Max he wants what she cherishes most, he's not looking at Steph. He's staring at Grace. "Oh you'll hardly miss it. We just want what you cherish," is said while staring right at Grace, it's only on "most" that he switches his gaze to Steph. Throughout the rest of the scene, his gaze keeps pointedly switching to Grace, even though he seems to be addressing Steph. He barely looks at Pete except to do the thing with his hair. No, he's focused on the girls. He's taunting Stephanie, and he's watching Grace to see if she catches his drift. Catches what she could give up so Steph doesn't have to.

I dont think the LiB cared either way if Grace or Steph ended up sacrificing what they cherished most. No matter what the outcome, the LiB win. If Steph gives up what she wants most, Pete dies, Steph is broken, and Tinky gets Pete for his toy box. If Grace gives up her chastity, then she has willingly corrupted herself for the LiB's whims, and as we see, it leads to her going mad with power and continuing to use the book. (I don't think they even expected Pete to give up Steph, which is why he was barely addressed. That would be a wild timeline.) And there was a chance that both of them would end up giving up what they cherish, without knowing the other had already paid the price (It's not what happened, but it could have. Can you imagine if Grace had already fucked Max to Hell but Steph and Pete didn't know, and she ended up shooting him without needing to? The LiB would have been delighted.) No matter what, they win and the nerds lose something.

Okay but the "what if I am wrong?" part in "Cool As I Think I Am (Reprise)" always gets me because Pete does take that moment to pause, to ask if sacrificing himself so completely is really the right move to make. But then he immediately answers his own question by telling Steph "you get to live on." And that's enough for him. Steph Lauter will give to live and that's all he needs to know. In Pete's mind, the solution that gets her out alive simply cannot be the wrong one, no matter what it means for him.

He loves her so goddamn much already.

Honestly? I think Pete knew he had to be the one to die because Steph isn't what he treasures most. Like, he loves her, yes, enough to literally die for her, but he's only really known her a month- she's not the most important person in his life- Ted is.

#richie and ruth used to be 2nd place and then they died :((( #au where thats how ted dies in npmd pls #npmd #nerdy prudes must die #pete #steph #i never wanted you anyway #cool as i think i am reprise #ted #goat bros

It's going from "if I loved you, you would know it" to "if I loved you, you'd have to say-" "I know" that really gets to me
