more things from my production of hamlet that permanently altered my brain chemistry

getting to pick out my own costume, wearing an old peacoat that i eventually took with me to college

all of the tiny details of my costume that nobody but myself noticed

horatio wearing a tiny heart locket because of the whole “heart’s core” thing

horatio fiddling with the necklace while watching the play within a play, while watching the fencing match

our director cut the script to create a deeper relationship between horatio and gertrude while hamlet is away getting captured by pirates

the letter scene

hamlet and horatio reading hamlet’s letter in sync, except hamlet reads “horatio” alone in the beginning and horatio reading “hamlet” alone at the end of the letter

horatio going straight from the letter scene into a conversation with gertrude about ophelia’s health

horatio being in ophelia’s mad scenes, watching her break down and cry, assisting with her wheelchair

gertrude relying on horatio for the truth about hamlet’s whereabouts

horatio staying with gertrude as she dies, then attending to laertes, then finally, to hamlet

our director remind our hamlet to “die center!!!”

hearing the bows music for the first time (the other side by david gray)

wittenberg crew making each other friendship bracelets (r&g had matching “rosie” and “guildy” bracelets, ho&ham had bracelets that read “good night” and “sweet prince” respectively)

making myself a bracelet that said “L + horatio”

THE GRAVEDIGGER SCENE

wearing my peacoat in the final scene, then tearing it off to give to laertes as he’s dying

hamlet holding claudius’ head, forcing him to drink the poison, then finishing him off with a small little nick to the ear, giving claudius a taste of his own medicine

ophelia having one fleeting moment of clarity when she sees laertes, running to hug him

polonia taking an awkward family photo with her kids, chastising them for not smiling enough

(accidentally photobombing those photos during rehearsals)

i mentioned yorick hot potato in the last post, but i didn’t mention that i pulled out a bottle of hand sanitizer after tossing the skull away

the lighting, the set

having to carefully fumble my way offstage once the lights went down, the three times i almost tripped over a foil

and the one time where i actually did

after that they put glow tape on the stage

our set designer crafted an entirely original crest for the hamlet family, using nordic, danish, and even some tolkien characters for inspiration

seeing the set for the first time

our first time staging the death scene

there’s a photo of me in my lil spot by hamlet, surrounded by dead bodies and bathed in red light just kinda going like 😁👍👍

crushing the other teams at shakespeare trivia during our closing night cast party

“What do you want”

“Just put your body weight on me….ahem I didn’t say hold yourself up while you lay above me did I? I said put your body weight on me.”

“Oh I didn’t know you were serious”

“Why wouldn’t I be specific about this? I sleep with two weighted blankets”

A redraw of the timeline of Apollo's life I made half a year ago! Sadly for some reason CSP decided to completely delete poor Post-First Punishment Apollo (the fifth one), but luckily I took a picture of it before hand so y'all can see it, even if it's lower quality ;-;. If you want the story behind these designs I dumped like 2000 words about it in my og post, which you can see here!

Some quick addendums I forgot to put in last time + fun design details:

Apollo replaces Helios as the god of the sun after the Trojan War, around 900 B.C.E-ish.

Baby Apollo has horns now! This is a trait he inherited from his titan side and then quickly lost during his battle with Python. It's a nod to his first domain being shepherding as well.

Just to clarify, post-first punishment Apollo goes before post-Daphne Apollo, it's just I couldn't place them in the right order bc csp sucks

The symbol I used on Main Apollo's fabric is called a delphic epsilon! It was used as a symbol for Apollo's temple at Delphi in Ancient Greece and represented a worshiper's initiation into light.

The blue-ish silver ribbon Fall of Greece Apollo has belonged to Artemis. As I stated in my first post, Apollo spends a large amount of time away from Olympus between the fall of greece and his time in Rome, so he kept the ribbon to have something of his sister's in the meantime.

Also for Fall of Greece Apollo, his cloak is fading for two reasons. One, he's spending a lot more time performing his duties as the god of burials, making his role as one of the first bridges between the living and dead much more prominent. The underworld is pulling at him just as much as it is pulling at the casulties of Greece. Two, Apollo is not spending time on Olympus, nor is he actively speaking with any of his worshipers. This is causing belief in him to diminish, so this is the closest he has ever gotten to fading. I swear I will write a whole thing about the period at some point I have so many ideas.

The sheep 2nd punishment Apollo has is a Chios sheep! They are actually native to Greece, and also adorable I love them.

I think that's all for now, I hope you guys like the art!!!

Headcanon that Nico bites to show affection but after Bianca died he felt like he had to hide that fact and then one day wolf boy Jason bites him to show affection and Nico's inner creature is like "YES. I'M FREE. I CAN BITE PEOPLE AGAIN." And now Jason's arm always has a bunch of bite marks.

Imagine Epic the Musical but it's the PJO characters acting it out and Mr D being the God of theatre gets the other gods to watch it or Apollo gets them to watch it and casts a blessing so everyone's singing is top notch and Hazel + the Hecate cabin are using the mist for special effects except for when Posiden is on screen which is when Percy goes apes*** and channels all the villain energy

Annabeth - Odysesus

Percy - Penelope + Posiden

Malcolm - Athena

Clarisse - Ares

Drew - Aphrodite

Piper - Circe + Hera (?)

Jason - Zeus

Stoll twins - Hermes

Thalia - Aeloas

Tyson - Polybotes

(Maybe Nico and Will as Polities and the other dude?)

things from my production of hamlet that permanently altered my brain chemistry

our director let me make and wear wittenberg merch

and then having to contact the real wittenberg university to ask their permission to use their name on the sweatshirts bc customink doesn't want a lawsuit

r&g, ophelia, and polonius’ death curtains

(the actors stood behind a long piece of fabric and were backlit to see their silhouette all ghostly and spooky)

r&g goofing around with their prop nooses

gravedigger scene

hot potato with yorick’s skull

in ophelia’s mad scene with the flowers, she gave her first flower to an imaginary hamlet

horatio picked up the lone flower when the scene ended

horatio giving gertrude the hamlet flower

adding the scene between horatio and gertrude from the first folio

horatio holding onto hamlet as he dies

being face-to-face with hamlet as he died, as if the audience wasn't even there and they were the only two people in the world

Apollo: If I fall…

Surya: I’ll be there to catch you.

Lugh: *looks at Sol* What if I fall?

Sol: Then I’ll fall with you, never leaving your side.

Huitzilopochtli: *watches these two interactions*

Huitzilopochtli, to Ra: And if I fall?

Ra: I’ll be the one who pushed you.

Everyone always depicts Apollo’s frequent relationships as him being a bit shallow or a player. And like, he kind of is, but I like to think that there’s a bit of the “god enamored with humanity” to it as well. Bc Apollo has that paragraph in THO where he says that gods are a bit in awe of mortals, and I like to think that for him specifically that extends to just finding mortals living and growing really beautiful and captivating. Like:

Mortal: Exists, learns, and changes, as mortals do.

Apollo:

if the majority of greek demigods have dyslexia because their brains are hardwired for greek, would roman demigods have dyscalculia because their brains are hardwired for roman numerals ??
