Thank you Somnia for your donations which made this possible 🤍
Due to the tight timeline we received to provide lunchboxes to Dreamcatcher, we were not able to collect donations long enough to cover the full price. If you would still like to donate, you can do so with our PayPal link below:
I get frustrated by fandom mistaking Kirk's impulsiveness + optimism for stupidity. Just because he can be a silly little gambler who believes in the good in the world doesn't mean hes dumb. He is a really interesting and complex character and shoudn't be put into the 'happy idiot' archetype.
Plus, I really hate how optimism is treated like a naive or childish trait in general. It's hard to be optimistic, especially when you've seen half the shit Kirk has
So way back in 2019, @seananmcguire and @tkingfisher (and also later @kbspangler) got into a whole poetry/rap battle involving the poor Mari Lwyd (played by Seanan) just trying to get some cheese from Ursula's stores. This went on for a few years, and I can't find transcribed sources, only screenshots.
So, with X/Twitter being What It Is, I wanted a text source to exist. CW for food, alcohol, and all the caps, and full credit to the authors. If you want the original source it's here.
Seanan:
WE'RE HERE TO SAY PLEASE
WON'T YOU GIVE US SOME CHEESE
SOME CHEESE AND SOME BRANDY OR PORT.
THIS FESTIVE HORSE SKULL
HAS BEEN SHOVED ON A POLE
SO GRANT ME YOUR FINEST RETORT.
Ursula:
BEGONE WITH YOUR POLE
(YOU CAN LEAVE THE NEAT SKULL)
DEMANDING MY FOOD IS EXTORTION
FOR CHEESE IS QUITE DEAR
AND WILL BE WORSE NEXT YEAR
AND I CAN’T SPARE YOU EVEN A PORTION
Seanan:
IF IT'S HEAD FOR A HEAD,
I COULD TAKE YOURS INSTEAD,
THAT SEEMS LIKE A TRADE THAT'S QUITE FAIR
BUT DECAPITATION
REQUIRES CONTEMPLATION,
I'D RATHER THAT CHEESE OVER THERE.
Ursula:
YOU COME ‘ROUND WITH THE BITS
OF A HORSE THAT IS QUITS
DEMANDING I GIVE YOU MY CHEDDAR
BUT HEY, YOU HAVE SAID,
AT LEAST IT’S NOT MY HEAD—
I’M SUPPOSED TO THINK THIS IS BETTER!?
Seanan:
I AM NOT A QUITTER,
NO NEED TO BE BITTER,
AND I'D TAKE YOUR GOUDA OR BRIE.
YOU ASKED FOR MY HEAD,
THINKING THAT SINCE I'M DEAD
YOU COULD JUST KIDNAP PIECES OF ME.
I HAVE INFINITE TIME
AND THE PATIENCE TO RHYME
AND I'LL STAND HERE LIMITLESSLY.
Ursula:
AND WHAT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT
ON NOT-QUITE-LONGEST-NIGHT
TO MAKE FREE WITH OTHER PEOPLE’S CHEESES?
YOU THINK ‘COS YOU SHOW
WITH A WEIRD SKULL IN TOW
IT CAN ASK FOR WHATEVER IT PLEASES?
Seanan:
THAT'S JUST WHAT I THINK,
GIVE ME CHEESE, GIVE ME DRINK,
AND I'LL NO MORE CAST DARK ON YOUR DOOR.
I'M NO TINSEL OR TREE,
I'M CELEBRATORY
OF SURVIVAL ON HEATH AND IN MOOR.
Ursula:
THERE’S NO HEATH AND NO MOOR
BETWEEN HERE AND THE SHORE
I COULD MAYBE GET YOU A BOG
IN LIEU OF MY BRIE
WHICH I’M HOARDING FOR ME
WHAT IF—LOOK, SEANAN! A FROG!
Seanan:
THAT WAS JUST DIRTY POOL,
AND YOU KNOW THERE'S NO RULE
THAT SAYS I CAN'T LEAVE AND COME BACK.
NOW THERE'S MUD ON MY SHOES
I WON'T LET YOU REFUSE
THIS FESTIVE DIGESTIVE ATTACK.
Ursula:
ALL’S FAIR, SO THEY SAY
WHEN CHEESE IS IN PLAY
ALTHOUGH I ADMIT TO DECEPTION
WHILE YOU CHASED A FROG
I SCARFED THAT CHEESE LOG
AT PERSONAL COST TO DIGESTION
Seanan:
THEN I'LL COME FOR YOUR BOOZE
I'M NOT LONGING TO LOSE,
AND THIS IS THE HOLIDAY SEASON.
I'LL STAND HERE AND SING
AS THE MORRIS BELLS RING
AND YOUR GUTS CONTEMPLATE CHOOSING TREASON.
Ursula:
I’VE NO BRANDY NOR GIN
THE SCOTCH STORES ARE THIN
BUT OF A SOLUTION I’M THINKIN’
THIS HOUSE’S LIBATION
AGAVE’S CREATION
WILL NEVERTHELESS GET YOU STINKIN’
IF IT’S BOOZE THAT YOU’RE FOR
BONE HORSE FROM THE MOOR
IT’S TEQUILA THAT WE WILL BE DRINKIN’
Seanan:
WE'LL GET HAMMERED LIKE BOARDS
WHEN THE LIQUOR GETS POURED,
THEY'LL ASSEMBLE US LIKE WE'RE IKEA.
THERE ARE WORSE THINGS TO DO
THAN START DRINKING WITH YOU.
I'M SO HAPPY THAT I CAME TO SEE YA.
Ursula:
I LOVE EVERY ENTITY IN THIS BAR
