Why doesn't he want to sing?
A series of ID pic portraits of an imaginary Filipino cast to go with my Tagalog translation of The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals!
A version with the blue shit under the cut (cn: blood), along with some Palatawan lore
From left to right, top to bottom:
Ken Davidson - third culture kid with expat parents running a ""call center"" on the sleepy little island of Palatawan
Lottie Magayon - nervous sweetheart who takes way too many smoke breaks. iglesia ni cristo. Magayon means beautiful in bikol, and is also the name of an active volcano.
Ted Jakolino - department head, but nobody calls him Sir Ted out of the office. ccf. Jakolino is making the same pun as spankoffski
Elmo Mangubat - best friend and struggling dad. mangubat = go to the forest = wood-ward
Melissa - nobody knows her last name, she's just Miss Melissa. likes cats
Emma Perez - disinherited rich kid doing a TESDA agriculture course while working at Beanie's, hates being called Ate (big sister) Emma so of course Zhoey calls her that all the time. her full name is Ma. Emmanuella de los Reyes Perez.
Enrique Ermita - kooky reclusive biology professor who is inexplicably also a heroic tenor. his students call him Prof Kiko.
Pablo Mateo - two first names. default man, palatawan born and bred. has never left and never wants to
Random fun things about Palatawan that I just want to share
The Witchwood is called Pinagputulan (the place of the cut-off things)
CCRP is one of those shady call centers that take up way more space than they're supposed to.
The Latte Hotte is the Beanie-bini (binibini)
ID: (1) a 3x3 collage of eight digital portraits that look like monochrome ID pictures: sir ken, miss lottie, sir ted, elmo, melissa, emma, prof kiko, and pablo. in the centre are the words "bakit ayaw niya kumanta?"
(2) the same collage, but all of the portraits have dark grey backgrounds except pablo, who has a cyan background. all of the characters except emma and pablo have cyan eyes and various degrees of blue gore on their faces, and all of the other characters are looking at pablo. ID ends.

OKOKOK-
so y'know how Marley is lit up in blue when he arrives and forces Scrooge to sit down and look at him??
SCROOGE DOES THE SAME THING TO BOB KINDA
LOOK AT THAT! LOOKIT! It's harder to see, but Scrooge does in fact have red light on him.
Scrooge tells Bob to wait because he has one more thing (Bah Humbug) to say...
HE STOPS HIM AND GETS HIM TO SIT BACK DOWN!
Remember Jacob Marley??
HE DOES THE SAME THING!! Oh boy, if the chain symbolism wasn't enough. (also also um red/blue dynamic)
Also uh-
You wanna know what Marley's dance reminds me of?
StarKid really likes that move, huh?
