Falsettos Food Theory
Okay so someone asked what this is and I really wanna explain! So the falsettos food theory is that food represents love throughout the Marvin trilogy.
In the show, In Trousers, Marvin is very strict about what kind of food he wants, and he gets very upset when he doesn’t get it imminently or the way he wants. For example, in the song ‘How Marvin Eats his Breakfast” there is the lyric,
“No one looks busy in this kitchen
And my breakfast isn't ready
And my stomach aches.”
This is in reference to that no one at that moment is giving him the love that he wants, and that he aches for it. Later in the song he also says ,
“I don't want miracles from heaven
Just some eggies over spinach over toast
No, I will not apologize!
She should win a prize:
Very best emoting
That girl can't cook”
When he says the first line he doesn’t literally mean he just wants a basic breakfast, he means that he doesn’t want much, he just wants to feel loved. By saving “that girl can’t cook” he doesn’t mean she’s lousy at making food, he means that she doesn’t give him the kind of love that he wants. One of the other ladies says
“maybe she can’t cook, but have you seen her milk a cow?” Implying that sexually she “provides” to Marvin, even if he doesn’t romantically like her (obviously this means nothing, just because they can be sexually active does not mean that it is love).
Another one is in Whizzer Going Down he says,
“he hates my wife
I hate his food”.
He’s saying he hates when Whizzer shows him love because he is not ready to accept the fact that he can be loved and he can love another man.
There are many more references of this in the show In Trousers and if anyone wants to hear them I’ll gladly go into it in another post!!
The ones in Falsettos are even more obvious references to love. In the song Tight Knit Family, Marvin sings,
“We all eat as one
Wife, friend, and son
And I sing out as they cook
I love my tight-knit family
I love the way they cook linguine”
They all eat as one meaning they are all receiving love from one another, even if it isn’t good. The next line being “I sing out as they cook” (singing out meaning to say or shout something loudly, most likely implying the unhealthy relationship he’s in with his family) this line is saying that while they provide him love and what ever he asks, he continues to complain about it.
However, in the next line he says “I love the way they cook linguine” which is a considered normal traditional meal for a lot people. This is showing that he enjoys when they provide him with basic normal love, instead of arguing or disagreeing with him.
Another reference later on in the musical is in the ENTIRETY of the song “This Had Better Come To A Stop”. The first set of unique lyrics though is what I’ll cover.
“Whizzer's supposed to always be here
Making dinner, set to screw
That's what pretty boys should do
Check their hairlines, make the dinner
And love me”
This is saying that Whizzer is supposed to always be at Marvin’s command, loving him and giving himself to Marvin sexually at all times. He mentions making dinner twice in these lyrics, again implying that he doesn’t want Whizzers love unless it’s later in the day once he’s gotten his love from his other family ( breakfast specifically).
Another general reference to food equaling love is Cordelia’s entire character. All she does throughout the show is provide food and such to the characters, this being her giving them constant love. Since Cordelia was giving Marvin so much food (presumably) during the two year gap during intermission, we can assume that her unique and (sometimes) not so great food taught him that he doesn’t always get to choose what to eat, but that he should be greatful someone is cooking for him anyway. I think Cordelia is one of the most amazing characters in the story.
For all of the song “Days Like This” she’s trying to get Whizzer to eat something, meaning she’s trying to share her love with him.
In the song “Jason’s Bar Mitzvah”, Dr. Charlotte says
“She's cooked for some 200 guests
[CORDELIA]
We number not that many
Actually... we're seven”
This shows that she has provided so much love for all of these people, even though there’s only seven. Only a couple lines later, she tries the food Cordelia made, and says that the food “tastes really yummy.” (in the pro shot Trina nods her head to agree).
This is important to me because it shows that Cordelia finally found a way to show/express her love with the rest of the characters, and have them reciprocate it for the first time on stage, showing that they are all at peace and finally love each other.
Just like in trousers there are hundreds of more references in Falsettos so if any of you would like me to go more into it I’d be happy to!
This is all speculation of course, we don’t know if any of this was intentional, buts it’s by far my favorite thing to talk about that’s falsettos related. Hope you enjoyed reading!

so i convinced my brother to watch npmd
for context, he's the one who got me into starkid in the first place, but was never a big fan of it as a whole (we watched avpm a couple years back, and he watched twisted and tgwdlm himself)
so he's like. a casual fan. he's not in the hatchetfield hyperfixation hell i'm in, having only seen tgwdlm a few years back and not watching nmt or bf
suffice to say, he liked it!
highlights of the night include:
Him simping over Steph immediately as the show started
Me explaining different running gags that got brought up
Him commenting and cringing on the show's portrayal of teens which.. yeah
Him saying that Dirty Girl was more awkward then sexy (but being freaked out nonetheless)
Him calling out that Grace would be the murderer right away, but thankfully that thought went away as soon as Max died
At the part right before the Max death scene, he commented "oh this is so sweet" and then Max. You know.
During Go Go Nighthawks, I very loudly yelled out "FUCK CLIVESDALE". Later on when Grace tries to frame the Chemists my dear brother also said "Yeah, fuck clivesdale!" confirming he is one of us now
He knows about my obsession with Dan and Donna, and witnessed my very audible reaction when they showed up the first time to report on Max's disappearance
After the scene I say they showed up later on and during the interrogation scene in the principal's office he said "When will Dan and Donna show up again?"
Of course, they did show up again for Hatchet Town, leading to me having the same reaction AGAIN, which lead him to commenting "They're not canon, right?" Which. OW.
When Dan came on and said, "I am Dan Reynolds" I pointed at him and said "There he is! My guy! He is Dan Reynolds!" all while my brother just awkwardly nodded along
Me singing all the parts in Hatchet Town
Me explaining the cameos in Hatchet Town
After Hatchet Town I continued to freak out over Dan and Donna and continuingly reiterated the point that I ship them and I love them all while my brother was like "Yeah. Yep."
During the Barbecue Monologues, he says "Is this a reference to the Vagina Monologues?"
I commented on how a lot of people said that Just For Once gives them Falsettos vibes, and my brother LOVES Falsettos so he was immediately like "okay yeah yeah i get it go onto the song"
Him saying "Oh this is depressing" towards the end of Just For Once
Him freaking out when Paul and Emma arrived (they're the only characters he recognized)
Him also freaking out over If I Loved You, with him saying it was his favorite song in the show
In the scene in the forest where Max throws Miss Mulberry's decapitated "head" my brother said "That's Chappell Roan" and now I can't unsee it.
Him being terrified during The Summoning (later on he said "those weird god things scared me")
Him pointing at Blinky and saying "That's Chappell Roan"
The look of dread on his face when he realizes Steph would have to kill Pete
Me continuingly hammering in the point that "Steph and Pete will die" and then him being like "Why couldn't Grace give something up, huh??" and then me responding, pretending not to laugh, "What's she gonna give up? Her dad?" and then he responded "Yeah, her gay dad" (for context, earlier on during the chasity's scene i mentioned most people thinking Mark was gay)
Him just being absolutely depressed during CAITA reprise
AND THEN the look on his face when Max came in and caught the bullet with him continuingly asking and reiterating "So they're not gonna die?"
The shock and horror on his face when Grace and Max did it on the football field
Me telling him that Best of You was the ending number
AND THEN his jaw dropping when Grace pulled out the book and started singing dirty dudes must die. later on he said "it gagged him"

matt bellamy is the strangest funniest man. he’s this insane musician and composer who has the craziest vocals but then he’s so silly and cringe when he struts around in his shiny jackets and skinny jeans and blinking glasses while playing the fucking heaviest rock songs and sings his strange melodic falsetto bits so effortlessly. and he used to have red and blue spiky hair and torn shirts and now he’s a cute embarrassing little dad with the most gorgeous tall model wife. and he talks so fast and mumbly but he says really beautiful and profound things but also not at all. idk man get into muse.

☆ they are so not good for each other. very on/off. lots of fighting. lots of jealousy and possessive behaviors. but for some reason they wanna stay together
☆ definitely met on a night on the town. gavin was out with his team for.. whatever sport they play idk i forgor on one of his trips and the two met. stuff happened. yeah.
☆ probably long distance... they take turns visiting each other
☆ has anyone heard the thrill of first love from falsettos. cuz that song is so them. (whizzer is gavin and marvin is spink btw)
☆ gavin is UNREASONABLY jealous.
☆ they can get kinda cute tho. gavin only ever calls spink by petnames (babe, baby, honey) while spink only calls gavin by his name (he tried baby boy once but the way that gavin cringed so hard made him regret it instantly)
☆ dates consist of a cheap dinner at home and drugs. yay ♡
☆ loooots of shotgun smoking and late night drives to the shittiest music ever
☆ do they love each other or are they just really horny? who knows.
☆ uhm that's all i have bye

I watched Starkid’s new musical Cinderella’sCastle. I have some thoughts:
- I’m very unimpressed by the music and lyrics. It’s possible the electro pop style isn’t for me; at least I definitely don’t think it works for a whole musical. It sounds too samey and very few of the songs are memorable. The lyrics feel slapdash and nonsensical a lot of the time. More importantly though…
- A lot of the live singing is very, very rough, especially all of the Narrator’s falsetto. Jeff Blim could make those notes sound okay with autotune in the demos (I actually really liked the demos), but he cannot hit the constant high notes at all in this filmed live performance. I should not be cringing at the vocals in a musical. That’s a big problem. I think he needs to either write to his actual vocal range or cast a different actor who can go that high and still sound clean live. I also think the stepfamily’s Facade song sounded really rough at parts, and I know those women are good singers, so maybe it’s the vocal direction and their character voices dragging them down.
- The book has problems with incorrect word usage, like the writers were trying so hard for fantasy dialogue and cadence that they forgot to make sure their sentences made sense. You and your forebears will rule there forevermore” is wrong. “Forebears” means “ancestors”. The word you meant to use is “descendants”. And the stepmother saying, “I worried you’d befallen some awful fate” is incorrect usage. It should be “I worried that some awful fate had befallen you”. Get a copy editor on that script! (I say this as nicely as possible. I know that I’m more sensitive to usage and grammar issues than most audience members because I am a copy editor, and I don’t usually correct people without being asked, but professional musical books don’t usually make these mistakes. Not a great look.)
- I agree with the reviews I’ve seen that say the book relies way too much on un-funny sex jokes and crudeness. I didn’t laugh once. And I’ve enjoyed and laughed at many a previous Starkid show, so that’s saying something. The prince specifically is deeply obnoxious, and not in a fun way. James Tolbert deserves better material.
- I dislike that the troll forms of the stepmother and stepsisters all look exactly alike. Make the stepmother puppet bigger, a different color, let her keep her wig or give her a funny hat, anything. She should stand out as the biggest and scariest troll. In general, a troll should feel larger than life; these troll puppets have no character. The actors are trying, but these puppets are stunting their great performances.
- Things I liked: The actors were all trying their hardest with rough material, and they did a great job. Bryce Charles has a great voice and makes for a likable lead, and I wish I could see her in a better show. I’m in love with Kim Whalen as usual. Sir Hops-a-lot and Crumb are adorable and everything Joey Richter does with his puppet characters is a delight. The costumes are nice!
- The adaptation of Cinderella is very predictable, of course, but there’s one twist on an element of the tale that’s extremely creative and I liked a lot (even if it gave the stepsister the theoretical power to foil Cinderella’s comeback just by taking off her shoes, which seems like a plot hole).
- The fairytale “East of the Sun, West of the Moon” already did the evil troll princess bit and did it better, and I wish that story would get adapted more often (and Cinderella a bit less often, LBR). Castle isn’t all bad, but I don’t think ALW has to worry- modern musical theatre has sadly still not given us a Good Cinderella.

Can i request platonic rottmnt leo & little sibling reader one-shot?
It's about reader who loves girly, childish things such as; Barbie, mlp (my little pony) & even dresses.
But they're worried that their family would judge them for it & not take them seriously or think they need to " grow up ".
Surprisingly when leo found out he wasn't upset at all, in fact he was happy because he ALSO loves Barbie, mlp...etc. He even said he's excited for the new Barbie movie.
Leo reassured reader they have nothing to be ashamed of.
AHH YESSZ!?!! i’m SO excited for the barbie movie ngl
tw: cringe ajdhsjddj
you lifted up the blonde barbie toy, making it face the black barbie in your other hand.
“but marie, we can’t go on like this much longer-“ you’d said in a falsetto voice, bringing the barbie closer to the other one.
“don’t worry, delly, i’ll break it off, i swear,” you’d said as the other one, making your voice slightly deeper.
“but-“
you were cut off by your brother, leo, yelling your name and announcing he was coming in (he’s had to announce he was coming in ever since he accidentally walked in on you changing clothes, which was embarrassing for everyone involved).
you squeaked in surprise and shoved your barbie’s under your bed, hiding them behind your blanket.
“mikey was wondering if-“ leo cut himself off when he realized you seemed nervous.
“…what’s up, hermana-?” he asked, trying to sound casual but was really sizing you up, trying to figure out what was wrong.
“uh, nothin’!” you stuttered out, trying not to show your nervousness but failing miserably.
leo hummed in thought, starting to say something, but you cut him off.
“so what did mikey want-?”
“oh! he wanted me to let you know dinner was ready.”
“oh, ok!” you smiled and stood up before rushing out of the room, having been hungry.
leo hummed before turning around, walking toward your bed with a curious look on his face.
………………
later, after dinner, leo slung his arm around your shoulders and pulling you close.
“hey, hermana, can i ask you about sumthin-?”
“uhh, sure-?”
leo then dragged you to your room, leaving you by the door while he walked over to your bed.
your nerves immediately escalated as he did.
he stared at you for a moment before lifting up the blanket, revealing the collection of barbie’s, my little pony figurines, bluey toys, and more things you really didn’t want your brother to see.
“why were you hiding these, hermana?”
you sighed, looking down in defeat.
“i didn’t want you all to know cuz i didn’t want you to think i was childish ‘n stuff,” you mumbled.
leo’s eyes widened in surprise before walking over to you.
“whaat? it’s not childish! and if it is, then, we’ll i’m guilty~” he replied with that ‘charming’ overconfident smirk in his voice, confusing you.
“huh?”
leo sighed and put his hand on your shoulder.
“hermana. i absolutely love barbies! and i’m totally excited for the new movie coming out!”
“y- you are-??”
“yea! there’s nothin’ wrong with liking ‘childish’ stuff,” leo said, putting air quotes around ‘childish’.
“really??”
“mmhm!”
he slung his arms around your shoulder and started walking the two of you to the door.
“now, whaddaya say we go to american girl and buy some stuff, eh?”
thanksz for requeszting! hope you enjoyed!

mush your christmas blurbs sound so cute :(( if i could get one with megumi and i hate singing carols but i will sing for you
i hope the holidays are so kind and generous to you my love!!!!
⋆⁺₊❅⋆ ⁺₊❆
Megumi doesn’t sing.
And no, not in the cringe-emo way. He doesn’t shrivel up at the sight of joy like a vampire in the sun, no matter how much Nobara insists so. He doesn’t mind when others sing. He just doesn’t prefer to. The way he sees it, there are things that he’s good at, and there are things that he’s not, and there are things that he quite frankly doesn’t care about either way. Singing falls in the latter category.
There is one thing he utterly despises when it comes to singing, though. Christmas Caroling. Blame Gojo and his terrible falsetto, and his terrible renditions of religious songs, and his terrible ploys to get him to sing in public. Now whenever Christmastime rolls around, he’s turned off by the whole tradition. It’s a trauma response.
So if someone told him a year ago that he’d be here, knocking on some poor stranger’s door on Christmas Day, mentally preparing himself to sing Silent Night and Little Drummer Boy, he’d calmly suggest they seek professional help. And yet, here he stands, in a Santa hat and a green scarf, fiddling with the songbook in his hands.
And then there's you.
His feels his lips pull into a frown. You’re cold. No matter how poorly you try to hide it. Your cheeks are tinged apple-red, and your nose twitches every five seconds, like a bunny, because only an idiot would be outside when it’s literally freezing. “Come here,” he sighs, beckoning you towards him.
You squint at him but listen, pouting slightly when he starts rubbing your hands between his. “I’m not cold,” you protest.
Megumi rolls his eyes. “Shut up.”
You do. It’s quiet for a moment, as Megumi does his best to warm up your extremities. He worries that he’s offended you, but presses on, blowing hot air into your palms. When he raises his head, you’re watching him carefully, snowflakes twinkling in your eyes.
“Better?” He asks, his throat raw.
You smile. “Better.”
The front door swings open, and he drops your hands, picking up his lyrics while you greet the strangers at the door.
Yeah. There’s no one else he’d do this for, not in a million years, other than you.
That’s how he knows that he’s gone. Just gone. For you, who beams under the porch light, rocking on the balls of your feet, lashes dusted with snowfall that flicker and melt with each wide-eyed blink.
