#I love this so much😭😭😭

In the 80s (when recording quality got better) Peter spends a week installing a really nice sound system in the pad even like crawling under the house to run wires from room to room. He rents an electrician’s book from the library and learns about electrical currents and pathways and how electricity and sound relate and how electricity turns sound waves into bigger sound waves with amps etc etc he connects their phonograph, cassette deck, and (eventually) their CD player and he gets a decent soundboard to control it all and he spends months talking about it and teaching Micky how to use the sound board to isolate the different instruments & vocals so he can make things sound the way he likes (Micky always complained about sound guys giving them a bad mix during shows) and teaching Mike how to use the synthesizer to play with his guitar noises so he can make things sound the way he wants them to in his head and Davy (who only learned to play the guitar and bass out of necessity) doesn’t really care too much about all the fancy stuff Peter hooked up which disappoints him because Peter likes when Davy is interested in his hyper fixations but when Davy is just chilling and Peter reveals the entertainment center (a shelf with their Phono, cassette player and “now playing” stand so they don’t have to ask what’s on, room for all their favorite albums where they’re easily accessible *and* Peter painted it so it fits the rest of their groovy décore) and Davy is like raving about it for days and Peter is all giddy about Davy bragging about him and then Micky points out the pad is decked out better than most night clubs and Davy gets the bright idea to turn their house into a nightclub and suddenly they’re all regretting giving Davy that idea because now they’re the hottest beachside night club of 1987 and every night they’re the house band for a night club and Davy starts getting other small local bands asking if they can audition to play at his night club and it all gets out of hand and they need to get a bouncer because their house can only hold so many people and have to start posting up club safety flyers and put up and anti drug policy because they start waking up to find people still zoned out on their couch and it all comes to a close when they get shut down because Davy didn’t get a permit to run a night club and the Miami news station runs a story on a “small British man running a night club out of his apartment” and “the night club of the summer getting shut down because they owner failed to register proper business permits” with clips of Davy standing pathetically next to Mike and very sadly saying “I didn’t know!” When being asked why he didn’t get a permit and then whenever they try to ask Peter questions he just starts info dumbing about sound waves and musical composition.

They still have people coming to their house thinking it’s a night club until the 90s. The main body of the club was queer young adults who thought the mostly 60s music the club played was cool and novel like it was some themed club and not just because the house band is the Monkees.

After they get shut down the sound system is still used by the TV and the music and all the other stuff they need a sound system for but it’s mostly used by Micky or Davy when they wanna do something they know Mike will complain about so they put on an album, turn it on really loud and then they just can’t hear Mike when he tells them to stop trying to explode the apartment!

Peter never stops trying to explain sound stuff to Davy. Davy never understands sound stuff he’s just glad Peter is having fun.

Oh my god I love this so much what the hell!!!!

All the guys are messing around with equipment to make cool new sounds they can use in their music and Davy’s just checking himself out in the nearest shiny surface.

Peters installing everything and Mike has to keep reminding him about safety gear, Micky has to help him wire some things (danger!!!) and Davy’s just handing him tools etc while filing his nails.

Davy starting a completely illegal scheme😭but hes still cute enough to get out of it so its okay! Mike does have to go lawyer mode for a bit though and the man is stressed

Peter explaining everything to Davy and Davy doesn’t understand a word so he just says it all back to peter wrong so he can explain it again. He just likes to hear Peter talk <3. Peters explained it about five times now (he doesn’t get bored because he’s super excited to tell Davy about it anyway) and Davy’s still clueless as when he started. Peter asks him to help with something and Davy’s just 🧍🏻head scratch

So I had a cute idea that part of the reason sparkplug sees lars like an older brother is because when she would fall asleep at her desk, he would set up one of the medical beds for her with blankets and stuff and carry her over there.

Thought it was so cute that I decided to draw it

i’m gonna cry it’s raining right now and i just passed by a family where both parents were without an umbrella but their kid who couldn’t have been older than like 3-4 was proudly holding this GIANT umbrella whose diameter was as tall (if not taller) as the kid. both the parents were getting absolutely drenched but u could tell the kid was just so happy to have an “adult” task and carry the umbrella themselves and i think that sacrifice is what love is all about

i wonder where the idea of chilchuck being a deadbeat came from when theres like. no textual evidence for it ?

he knows what all of them are up to; he still writes to flertom and she sent him his neckwarmer, so that to me implies that they at least have a somewhat positive relationship?

its more ambiguous with meijack and puckpatti, but since meijack is also a picklock, i wouldn't be surprised if he taught her himself, considering how trades are often passed down through families, and because he talks about sending people to her if he dies.

also the way he talks about puckpatti is very like... it's obvious he wants her to take things more seriously, but he's accepting, and his tone here reads more fond to me than anything else.

like, he keeps his daughters' old toys under his desk? that doesn't scream 'deadbeat' at all, it screams 'empty nester' who doesn't know how to reach out or is scared to do so

EDIT: i know a lot of the 'deadbeat dad' stuff is jokes, but some people are Not joking and genuinely think chilchuck is a bad dad. this post is not saying that you cant joke about it; it is just outlining what canon shows regarding his (clearly positive) relationship with his kids.
