Moby Dick Vs Starchild

Moby Dick:

it's a fucking whale also a portent of doom, yes it gets punked (spoilers) but the cycle of vengeance continues and (more spoilers) it kills everyone except for one lucky twink this whale hates you personally and will come to your house just to cause damage

[dreadful-windandrain]

my friends are putting on a slideshow night and i may have underestimated how complicated the plot of ghost quartet is to people who aren't mentally ill about it

because in my head it's so simple. yeah the wind and rain timeline kicked off the story but chronologically it's the second incarnation of these characters. yeah multiple characters are played by the same actor in the same timeline. yeah the storytellers are the actors using their real names. yeah they're part of the story too. what do you mean you don't get it

BUT I WILL TRANSCEND!!!! AND VOMIT THIS LOSER OUT OF ME!!!!

On Being A Twin And Ghost Quartet

I'm a twin. Non-identical. Fraternal. Both of us, are female.

One of our favourite things to do is identify ourselves in media - I'm Rasputin, she's Tsar Nicholas the II. I'm Kurtan Mucklowe, she's Kerry Mucklowe. You get the idea. I'm Pierre Bezukhov she's Anatole Kuragin.

You get the idea.

One of our favourite things to do is to act out the entirety of Ghost Quartet, just the two of us. And beyond vocal range, always, I have been Rose Red and she is Pearl White. We joke about it and we laugh about it, but at the same time there is something so sort of... true about it. (guys one of us is on tumblr the other one isn't - who do you think is more popular) I am a lot less rational than she is, more inclined to be harsh and sharp and pointy, my sister's more inclined to be charming and funny and - not softer - but perhaps nicer, less vengeful in a way. Idk what the point of this was, but something about the sister's in this musical just always resonated with me. Especially, the part about the Binary Stars. My sister has been with me - always. We listen to similar music - not always - but we do, we have the same shitty sense of humour, the same classes, the same trips and circles of friends. But also, we are completely different. Different fashion sense, different interests, different dispositions and social awareness (currently being suspected of being neurodivergent ngl), different faces. Shit, our hair is completely different. Her hair is straight, but my hair is curly ringlets. (mum's mixed race, dad's white) But she has always been with me. Not a day goes by when I don't see her face or play fight her or tell her I love her. I will never be alone, because even if we are on different sides of the globe, I have my sister.

Idk where this was going.

yeah, being a twin and liking ghost quartet together. Idk.

this is genuinely my favorite ghost quartet song, i just think it tells its little section of the story so hauntingly and beautifully, it makes me go craaaaaazy

[praetoravila]
