zari song 4 today

[morgan-tha-gorgan]

Something I don't see enough people talking about is how Deadpool and Wolverine isn't so much a starting point as it is a send off to an era of movies of which we will never see again.

I recently watched the first Xmen movie and it feels so completely different to what we have today. It was almost like it was embarrassed to call itself a superhero movie and instead was going for sleek action movie, which was quite popular in the late 90's and early 20-aughts. It felt like everyone was wearing black jumpsuits because they were afraid they wouldn't be taken seriously by mainstream movie goers. (Another common theme of the time period).

Jump to 24 years later and it is a very different world. Not only do we have grown people crying in theaters over Wolverine's classic yellow suit, but people went wild when he pulled on his mask...could you see people in 2000 having that kind of reaction to that mask? No. The movie would have been dead on arrival. Comic fans would have ate the shit up. But I don't think mainstream audiences were ready for that sincere of a choice in wardrobe. It took us 24 years to get to where Hugh Jackman could wear that suit, and I think it was worth the wait.

The credit scene clips from the past 25ish years of Xmen movies and other Fox productions made me cry, not just bc of the song choice (the universal song used to invoke nostalgia) but because you saw how much they loved making those movies. That they were always fun to make. And even though no one had yet cracked the formula on how to put superheros on film, they put their whole pussies into it. And some results were great and some we still kinda use as punchlines to this day. And yet, both were represented in Deadpool and Wolverine in a loving way. Electra was not nearly as beloved as Blade. But I still heard both characters getting a cheer when they appeared.

It is possible they will make a second Deadpool and Wolverine movie. But I don't think it was the intention. Ryan Reyolds and Hugh Jackman both met on the set of Xmen Origins: Wolverine. Ryan was so taken with his character he spent the next 7ish years trying to force it into existence. Whereas Hugh spent those same 7ish years playing the same character and was happy to put him to rest. It just so happens they both wanted to make this movie together. And bc they were some of the original actors from the beginning of the genre, the movie ended up being about their friendship, with some sendoffs to old favorites who maybe never got to be in the limelight the way they did.

This movie deftly mixes sincerity with humor. It doesn't make fun of the audience for what they like. Instead it respected our love for these characters and their stories. No matter how weird or ridiculous they may seem on the surface, there is a heart and a love there between writers, actors, and audience.

And they got that. Shawn Levy, Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman really got it. And so this movie was a love letter to all superhero movies: the ones we hold dear to our hearts regardless of how "succesful" they were.

It is like what Movies with Mikey says, "Every movie is a miracle," and Deadpool and Wolverine celebrate that.

Salet "Koploper" NS ICM Electric #4012

All about the Starlight Express OC I Deisgned!

((Aka Saletjonker (Pompous idiot) the "Emptyhead" Electic Rolling Stock))

The Star song is where we learn of this endless belief that he was destined, fated, blessed by God to become a big star. (And his general deal)

Then in the second song 'Bible' we learn that the motivation behind that belief is that on the day the he awoke as an engine, he was paired up with a sweet coach, but inly for a coupel of days. He learned that she felt pressured to date one of the electrics despite not loving him. That Electric engine, Electra, took her in mindlessly and never really thought any deeper of their relationship. Her youth and the lack of power have kept her trapped in the relationship. He couldn't cope with simply letting go of what he knew, so he decided that his destiny was to become the greatest star out of all trains running. So that no coach, and especially her, ever feel trapped again. Surely, if he becomes the greatest, he could treat them all right?

But his motivation was not the only part of him that was flawed, so was his model.

TW: Malfunctions, crashing

He suffered mutiple malfunctions, one of which ended in a crash. (I like to think that the beginning monologue of 'Bible' are his thoughts as he feels himself crack into bits.)

"Hey, you told me you loved me, but why?

Because I'm tall? Because I'm a songwriter? Because I sing? Because I'm a good dancer?

Stop it! All I want is to be your boyfriend

You glow in my heart, like a shining medal."

TW over

He isn't truly the same after the crash. He still has that sparkle on the outside, but seems too over-indulgent in carnal pleasures. He chases after vanity, because he doesn't know what else to really do. He even gets in a fling with Electra, thinking that if he simply fawns over a 'stronger' engine — that it'll ease the ache. It did not. And so, the relationship ended as abruptly as it started.

Still, he keeps on rolling, with impenetrable belief that he will become a star once more, because if he doesn't.....he wouldn't be able to live with the fact that he left that coach to suffer....Let alone others he doesn't know about.

His final song would be Solitaire , in which he tries to cope with the bad hand that he was dealt.

"Must I keep pretending? Where's the happy ending?....For me....When will it be?........"

.

Bonus songs:

Icicles

"I can only be forgiven if I'm giving myself up to you

On a silver serving tray..."

A song depicting the rocky, and quite cruel relationship between Salet and Electra.

It's Love

Besides dating Electra, he was also in a loose relationship with Melite. Anthough everyone considered that he dated both the Engine and the Coach, the things between Melite and Salet were much more complicated. The first time, she would reject him. Because he offers to be her Engine thinking that the fact he is an engine is the only thing he can offer to others / only thing good about him. She asks him to ask her again when he has a better reason. Nonetheless, the still acted like a couple...

But maybe, later, as he goes through change, they could be a set...

Classic

"How are you gonna come for a classic? How are you gonna come for me?"

I like to imagine this number as Salet reclaiming his pride as a beautiful dutch model who was praised and beloved by many. He refuses to let go of his pride regardless of his condition or status.

Would you mind doing a costume breakdown of OLC pearl? I want to cosplay her but she’s so different from the other versions of Pearl it’s hard to find really good references.

WELL. There's a bit of a problem there... there's about 6 different combinations to consider! I'll try to get them in order to make sense of it but...

This first version - no shoulderpads, mesh front, pink hotpants - definitely feels unfinished and unintentional to me. The mesh front really throws me - that material, the collar, the detail, feels far more - refined? maybe? than the smooth spandex and geometric shapes of the rest of the costume.

We don't have any early costume designs, nothing pre-Broadway, but I can't imagine she was intended not to have shoulder boxes eventually!

I think this is the finished version of that same costume - big curved shoulders, and I think everything else is the same. her wig feels paler, but then the black patches would just melt into the background.

This version is fascinating! Somehow the seam lines are visible despite the low res image? But you can clearly see her legs are the same black spandex with pink squares, but instead of being sewn to pink hotpants, the top is now black - possible sheer black? Or that might just be the lighting.

At the same time her bodice is changed - there's clear seams under bust, kinda inverting the shape of her belt. The mesh insert has been replaced and this V doesn't reach as low down - and the decoration on this, the trellis-like black piping, is clearly floating at this point! I'm sure that's unfinished previews. She has shoulder pads, but they're MUCH smaller than the ones above. Her gloves have developed a bit too.

I think the colour photos are the next stage on, at least for leggings - that sharp change in texture between legs and hips is gone (but we do have a bit of vpl)

In the actual Souvenir Brochure, we see her with the big shoulderpads from before, with apparently the mesh front with studs not the lattice. But we see her with Electra and Components (probably The Rap) showing the full black leggings...

But we also see Pearl racing with Electra - all in pink! I am absolutely sure this is the unfinished "tutu Pearl", her lovely pouffy skirt was just not ready yet at the time of this photoshoot. Her skates were still black though...

Pearl's final form - once the show had opened properly - is far more your classic ingenue. She's pale pink, she's got bows and ribbons and fluff, she's cute and pretty! It's so interesting how the lattice V neck pre-dates her having a sweetheart neckline dress!

I find it fascinating how they started off with "Aerobics Pearl" - magenta not pink, clean lines not fluffy, sexy not cute, and she just didn't work. The way her costume changed over and over, changing this element, that element, trying to find the look that represented the character who really fit in the story... that lines up with what we found out recently with the workshop lyrics Frances Ruffelle posted - Pearl's absolutely cool and logical about racing with Electra, not the fluffy romantically confuddled "Make Up My Heart" at all!

CATS: The Jellicle Ball Summary

Sourced from my (admittedly imperfect) memory. I love this production, and this is an abridged summary of my memory of the events of the show. Specific/detailed character thoughts will be saved for their own posts, same with thematic deep dives. If there is any character/theme/question y'all want my thoughts on first, I can move them to the top of my queue of thoughts. That being said: on with the show!

Tumblr decided to post early, so this is just Act 1. I will add Act 2 as a reblog when I finish it

Pre-Show

The set for this show is really well done. Talked to one of the workers during intermission, and the whole thing (seating, stage, and all) is completely modular and movable. Floor levels are also all adjustable. It really inclines itself to audience interaction, both with the runway structure and the individual tables at the cabaret level seats.

Junior Labeija handles the pre-show announcements (put your phones away once you've googled me, cheer your heart out, don't film, etc)

Overture

Hearing this live for the first time made me cry

The DJ's introduction is great, he has a collection of queer and black artists' vinyls that he pulls out, followed by a Cats vinyl filled with glitter

The eyes (projected up onto the back wall/window panel) have the white cat solo animated inside of them

Shadow outline of a dancer (I think Primo/Tumble on the night I saw) starting out w/ ears and a tail doing classic Cats-style choreo blending into a removal of the ears/tail and a shift to ballroom choreo

Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats

Did the thing I love for this song where there are clear and well-timed spotlights on every cat as they sing their line, w/ everyone else in darkness

Cast appears throughout the audience (Tugger was behind me at his start, I think) before gathering into the area around the stage

Get onto stage for the Mystical Divinity section

The group catwalk is absolutely gorgeous, this show has great choreo

The Naming of Cats

The perfection of this song for a queer viewing of Cats cannot be overstated, and will likely be its own post eventually

Munk as an MC leading this number is lovely to me

"Man over there" is given to Macavity, as the first clear indication to his altered role in this version

There are spotlights on every cat whose name gets said in the song, not just Bombalurina, which makes me happy

White Cat Solo

Gets its own segment because Baby is that good. She is dance captain for this show and you can see why

The white outfit here is gorgeous, kinda sad she changes out of it later

Pink lighting is doing good work making this section feel ethereal

Was way closer to the vibes of the original than I was expecting from a vogue choreo. There were a couple moves I saw as clear references to the original

Invitation

Emcee Munk continues to be amazing, the rhythm of this was very satisfying

"COME OUT tonight"

They bring in guest judges to sit until Old Deut arrives

Gumbie Cat

Jenny is a tired single mother of three kids who cannot for the life of them get organized

Puerto Rican drag queen Jennyanydots has my heart, as does her stylist

The "sits and sits and sits" line here is not used to imply that Jenny is lazy, it is very explicitly saying that she has a lot of sex (as acted out jokingly by her choreo)

Cassandra is adorable here, both while dancing and after she realizes she's won

Category Is: Virgin Vogue. A category for people in their first year of doing vogue (or similar). Won by Cassandra of House Dots, other competitors are Tumblebrutus of House Dots, Electra 007, and someone I am currently forgetting

The Rum Tum Tugger

I think I've made my love for this setup for Tugger clear before, and will continue to do so in the future, so this is gonna be little moments I liked/noticed

There are some line/blocking switch ups. Bomba gets the "terrible bore" line (said reclined on the stage as Tugger leans over her) along with her standard. Victoria is the girl flirting with Tugger on his "No" drop

Tugger flirts with everyone here. His competition, the other cats, the audience, etc.

Everyone but Misto, who is off to the side mocking his riffs

Sillabub is the one to faint during the ending bit

Category Is: Realness. Ability to pass as a (in this case) a cishet man in a variety of categories (pretty boy, thug, schoolboy, executive, etc). Won by Tugger, other competitors are Tumblebrutus and Mungojerrie

Grizzabella the Glamour Cat

I really like the interpretation of the Jellicles' relationship with Grizz in this show. They aren't angry at her, more...distressed? It seems like her being around is making everyone worried both about her and for her, so they react differently

Munk tries to give her money, she refuses

She comes in holding a trophy that is clearly old, showing that her glory days were a while ago. She also looks like she's likely been homeless.

Demeter's voice is gorgeous here, and she looks really conflicted about Grizz

There is a Demelurina vibe to this whole show, which I started noticing here

I have a lot of thoughts on Grizz and her relationships with the Jellicles here, which will probably be a post pretty soon after this one.

Grizz tries and fails to convince the judges to allow her to compete, and is far more determined/steely in this first appearance than usual.

Sillabub. Making them a giant Grizzabella fan was such a good choice. This is one of the most sweet and genuine through-lines of the musical. They're so genuinely remorseful and excited to see Grizz, but still back off when Demeter warns them.

Bustopher Jones

I know I gave Jenny my heart earlier, but it's been stolen. Nonbinary Bustopher Jones as played by Nora Schell is, I think, the ideal Bustopher. This is what this character was meant to be, for me

Oh gods the costumes. Tugger has a sparkly leopard print jockstrap. Bustopher has a full bustier situation covered in a bedazzled Union Jack. Mistoffelees and Demeter both have lovely sheer situations going on. This is amazing, and I've been informed is even better if you're bi

Nora Shell has pipes, y'all. Their voice is so strong and clear

This number has almost no true choreography, it's just the competitors showing off how hot they are (posing, strutting, stripping, grabbing their asses and shaking them at the judges, etc)

The amount of offense Tugger takes to losing is hilarious to me

Category Is: Body. Usually divided into Femme Queen and Butch Queen, but competed as an Open-to-All for this show. How good does your body look, and how well can you show it off? Won by Bustopher Jones, other competitors are Tugger, Demeter, and Mistoffelees.

Macavity Scare 1

Flashing lights and sirens

Demeter is so done with this. I have rarely heard a clearer "bitch really?" tone than I did in her calling Macavity's name here

Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer

Making them come from Jersey is amazing, top tier choice paired with some amazing accent work

Costumes are again amazing, Mungoteazer have a lime green/neon pink color scheme going on here

They spend a long time behind some changing racks, and I spent that whole time watching Munk as he got more and more annoyed with every passing second

I really love the dancing in this song, they get very up in each other's faces

Y'all, they steal the trophy when they lose. It's perfect

Category Is: Tag Team Performance. Vogue performance done as a pair. Won by Victoria and Tumblebrutus, stolen by Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer.

Old Deuteronomy

Munkustrap: a professional, on his shit, announcing his House Father right

Tugger: unprepared, eating a snack, oh god why is he giving me the mic

I love the setup for the duet here, Tugger is so surprised to be picked and is both nervous and honored. They sing into the same mic y'all

Andre De Shields, what more do I need to say?

His presence, his voice, the note he held for a solid 30 seconds, he deserves that throne

Jellicle Ball

Macavity again! In his dressing gown, with his bags of stolen stuff, looking like a deer in headlights when the spotlight catches him

The dancing continues to be absolutely gorgeous

Grizzabella is up on an audience balcony for this number looking tragic

The Jellicle Moon is a disco ball and it brought me so much joy

Munk has a killer egyptian look, including full-size wings

There are giant complicated cat face wigs and a giant hat made of hair

Category Is: Bizarre. Fashion category judged on the quality and strangeness of the outfit. Munkustrap was the only competitor, and Old Deut chopped him

Category Is: Hair. Not a category I actually know, but clearly in this show is judging based on the size, design, and quality of wigs. Won by the House of Dots, as sole competitors

Probably other categories I didn't notice clearly enough to remember

Memory

Grizzabella comes on and everyone walks off annoyed, except for Old Deut who comes and hides behind a riser. He's right in front of me, so I'm watching this number over his shoulder

Grizz recreating her dance moves is painful for my heart, as usual

Tempress has a gorgeous voice

Sillabub re-enters and looks so starstruck, then runs off again

Comes back with a sparkly dress to offer to Grizz

Grizz sees the dress, starts crying, and runs away. She grabs her coat, but leaves her scarf

We go to intermission on the image of Sillabub holding the scarf to their face and crying

Masterlist: Love and Revolution (or simply “The Youngblood Chronicles”)

synopsis: In the city of Vallum, once a haven for art, music, and freedom, a brutal, authoritarian regime has taken control. The oligarchs exercise strict control over the population, imposing strict moral codes. Love is controlled, sexuality is reduced to mere reproduction, and women are stripped of their identities, reduced to wives and mothers. The government enforces compliance with a drug that suppresses negative emotions, ensuring quiet, unquestioning obedience.

But not everyone accepts this fate.

A group of rebels, driven by a fierce desire for liberation, fights to overthrow the regime. They are not only fighting for freedom from oppression, but also for the right to love and be loved according to their own terms. Amidst the rebellion, the characters begin to explore their identities, challenge the system, and embrace love in its many forms.

The revolution is not just a political act—it is a deeply personal one. For these rebels, love is the ultimate form of resistance. Through passion, intimacy, and vulnerability, they find strength in each other. Their relationships transcend the boundaries set by society, and their exploration of love and sexuality becomes an act of defiance.

In this new world, there are no limits—only the freedom to explore love, desire, and identity in their purest forms. As the revolution grows, so do their relationships—unpredictable, intense, and full of raw emotion. They learn that true freedom lies in embracing their desires without shame or restraint.

“Love and Revolution” is a story of rebellion, romance, and eroticism, where queerness is celebrated and love is the most radical act of all. In a world that once suppressed their identities, the protagonists fight not only for their lives but for the future of love itself.

pairing: rebel!f!reader x rebel!ot5!txt x rebel!f!oc

genre: angst, AU, smut (mdni)

inspired by: the album “Save Rock & Roll” and “The Youngblood Chronicles” by Fall Out Boy (aka my favorite band 🖤); the album “Electra Heart” by MARINA; classic dystopic and post-apocalyptic books, like 1984, We, The Handmaid's Tale, Fahrenheit 451, The Hunger Games, Animal Farm and Brave New World; some authors as Simone de Beauvoir, Jean Paul Sartre, Anaïs Nin, Bertrand Russell, Byung-Chul Han etc.

trigger warnings: dark themes (repr3ssion, vi0lence, s3xu4l 4buse/control towards women, mentions of pers3cution of queers) [if any of these may cause distress to you, pls don't read].

other warnings: poly relationship; reader is pansexual; mentions of masturbation; protected and unprotected sex; grupal sex (more to come).

Violet is def a Marina girl, but for some reason I also see her as the kind of person who listens to like really obscure music, screamo metal, and something kinda weird like mongolian throat singing. she just likes it as a background while she invents. I think Klaus could get into the weird music too if he researched it first, but Sunny is not about it, Sunny has taste. She comes up to her siblings and they're listening to like Neurofunk, or Solipsynthm and she tells them to turn that hipster shit off lol

Violet Baudelaire is SO swiftie
