#I SCHEDULED THIS THE WRONG DAY

[theridgebeyond]

Video description and closed caption beneath the cut.

I never post these kinds of things, but it’s Holy Saturday and I’m singing the main song from Jesus Christ Superstar on my banjolele.

The musical is deeply flawed and antisemitic (I particularly hate the line about the Buddha and Prophet Muhammad, as if they were the “Jesus” of their respective religions), but this scene is everything.

It’s not just Judas surrounded by disco girls asking Jesus whether he thought about his brand. It’s Judas, risen from the dead, asking a Jesus who will never see the Resurrection (the show ends with the sealing of the tomb) what the point of it all was.

Holy Saturday is a day where we, like the disciples the first day after Jesus’s death, contemplate a world without Jesus. We meditate on a world without a Resurrection and whether our lives would be any different. We get to look at a God locked in a tomb and wonder what the point of it all was.

Video of a young white woman playing the banjolele and singing “Superstar” from the musical Jesus Christ Superstar. She has long blonde hair, brown glasses, green earrings, and gray turtleneck, and a dark blue cardigan. At one point, she smiles at her dog off-camera, who wants to let her know that the washing machine is running and he is quite concerned about it.

Every time I look at you I don't understand

Why you let the things you did get so out of hand.

You'd have managed better if you'd had it planned.

Why'd you choose such a backward time in such a strange land?

If you'd come today you could have reached a whole nation.

Israel in 4 BC had no mass communication.

Don't you get me wrong. Don't you get me wrong, now. (x2)

I only want to know. I only want to know now. (x2)

Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ. Who are you? What have you sacrificed? (x2)

Jesus Christ Superstar. Do you think you're what they say you are? (x2)

Tell me what you think about your friends at the top.

Who'd you think besides yourself's the pick of the crop?

Buddha, was he where it's at? Is he where you are?

Could Mohammed move a mountain, or was that just PR?

Did you mean to die like that? Was that a mistake, or

Did you know your messy death would be a record breaker?

Don't you get me wrong. Don't you get me wrong, now. (x2)

I only want to know. I only want to know now. (x2)

Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ. Who are you? What have you sacrificed? (x2)

Jesus Christ Superstar. Do you think you're what they say you are? (x2)

who prefers candles, incense, something else, or nothing?

They avoid anything that produces smoke, because it makes Meredith sneeze, and Enrais doesn't like seeing things burn.

Tease Tidbit Tuesday

Tagged by @wikiangela mwah! ❤️

The chapter I’m on in Rival Firefighters 🚒 is kicking my ass. Words aren’t coming and if they are they’re coming sloooooow. Like maybe 300 words a day slow. It’s annoying and frustrating because I really want to get a good chunk of this fic written. Feel like I haven’t written a lot for it in ages! Like if I can finish off this chapter I’ll be happy 🙂

So here’s today’s 300ish words (I did manage to write a little bit more after this so yay!)

On his last day at the 118, Bobby calls Eddie into his office at the end of shift. Buck shoots him a quizzical look, Eddie shrugging and shaking his head. He has no idea why Bobby wants to see him. Maybe thank him for his time here? But that seems like something he could’ve done in front of everyone, why ask to speak to him privately?

“Ohhhh someone’s in trouble” Chim sing songs looking far too pleased with himself.

Hen snickers beside him. “Better get to the principal’s office, you don’t want to be late.”

Eddie rolls his eyes at them as he leaves the locker room, pausing in the doorway to address Buck, who is still giving him a confused puppy look.

“I’ll meet you back at mine? You’ve still got your key, yeah?”

Buck blinks away the confusion, eyes brightening at the reminder that he’ll still be seeing Eddie even though they aren’t working together anymore. “Y-yeah, still got my key.”

Eddie had gotten a key made and had given it to Buck two days ago after discovering Buck was worried they wouldn’t be in each other’s lives anymore once Eddie finished up his time at the 118. Buck had taken the key and looked at it like it was the greatest treasure in the world, closing his fingers around it tightly before pulling Eddie into a hug that Eddie swears he can still feel the warmth of, deep in the marrow of his bones.

“Alright, I’ll see you soon.”

Eddie makes his way to Bobby’s office, anxiety beginning to bubble in his stomach causing his chest to feel too tight. He rubs at his sternum as he walks, trying to dislodge the tightness, but he knows it’s pointless. He gets to the door and takes a deep breath to get his shit under control before knocking.

“Come in!”
