lately i tend to favor more understated songs in cast albums and i genuinely think that so many of them are severely underrated
like in Hadestown some of my more recent faves are "how long" and "we raise our cups" (which is admittedly funny bc younger me didn't like "how long" At All). like. neither of them have the showstopping power of "wait for me" or either "chant" but they are just. so beautiful. they're relatively simple melodically but imo they really showcase the artistry of this show
needless to say i am Despondent abt some of the choices made by the new West End cast album
#seph speaks#hadestown#idk i just. i love those songs so much!!#genuinely almost cried when i realized they were both cut in the new album#obv i'm devastated 'hey little songbird' and 'doubt comes in' were cut too#but where's the love for my underrated faves!!#part of this is also inspired by the fact that i saw this show live in london earlier this year#and 'how long' was by FAR my fave persephone moment in that production#idk! i just rlly liked how she performed that song in particular!#alas😔

So I didn’t finish the entire 2 episodes in s3 but I did move back to the neverland rescue, and I think the two parts might be one my favorite episodes mostly because of how concerned and caring they are towards one another they’re like a little family it’s so fucking cute. Season 2 is like the last time you really see them as a trio or quartet that cares for one another, because in s3 is when they mostly start shifting their focus on mostly jake and some reoccurring captains
-anyways I love how when him and peter are flying around and saying how fun it’s going to be when they travel together. And then Jake remembers that the three of them are right there it cuts to them and they’re starting up at him so blankly like
#Izzy cubby and Skully are still there yeah but they’re like in the back back of the van#anyways#I think seeing how the 3 survive on their own would be interesting#alas😔#jake and the neverland pirates#pixie quips about jatnp

The Monty Eyebrow™️
for @purgatory606
#thank you mira for throwing this at me#when a guy spends his existence going “🤨🏳️🌈⁉️” but alas ghosts don’t show up in mirrors#hate that I had to split up the second one because they decided to cut to Monty for a bit#uninterrupted footage from every camera that was ever running on the show. on my desk Monday.#dead boy detectives#dbda#charles rowland#jayden revri#my gifs#finally figured out how to get gifs to look slightly less shit on mobile!!#it’s the sharpening 😔 always up the sharpening#smth about the noise of the grain cancelling out the visible pixelation#me before making gifs: boy I wonder why gifmakers go quite that hard on the sharpening. the original scenes don’t look crunchy#me now: I’d Like To Apologise (2h 15m)

please feed us some yuuji blurbs there’s a lack of him rn :(
ofc… sweetest boy all time… here’s something was was meant to be a longer project but got lost in the editing whirlwind… love him so bad...
NEVER LOST IN TRANSLATION, BECAUSE YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT
notes: reader is implied to be american/english-speaking, yuuta and megumi are bilingual, yuuji, bless his soul, is not. i didn’t use italics for conversations between yuuji and megumi because it would all be in japanese, but when they get mixed later in the scene, japanese is differentiated with italics. hope that’s not too confusing lololll
Honestly, Yuuji tried his best in school. Some things came easier than other, but with a bit of hard work, and help from his friends, he always managed to pull pretty good grades. But right now, his biggest regret is not taking english more seriously in high school, because it’s been about three weeks since he met you, and he’s only been able to say maybe five full sentences to you without the help of Yuuta or Megumi translating.
He was excited when Yuuta said his friend from abroad would be coming to visit and study, but god, he didn’t expect you to be so pretty. To have such pretty eyes, and pretty lips, and pretty hair, to have the prettiest voice in the world despite him only understanding every eighteenth word you say. You’re beautiful to him, and Yuuji thinks that even if he could speak your language fluently, the words would still get caught in his throat. He’s so lovesick, it’s embarrassing—his friends have been harping on him blushing and stuttering over you for the past month, and he can’t even blame them.
“What does she say to you when you guys talk,” Yuuji whines, hovering around Megumi, and not-so-discreetly looking back at you where you’re still sat in the living room laughing with Yuuta, “Does she ever say anything about me? I mean—probably not right? Which is fine! Actually, dont tell me—no, do. Or maybe—”
“She asks about you,” Megumi says, matter-of-fact in delivery, as he places a bag of popcorn in the microwave, but that doesn’t curb Yuuji’s enthusiasm. He’s practically bouncing, if he weren’t already—begging Megumi to spill the details, “What did she ask? Tell me! Tell me!”
“She once asked if you dye your hair.”
“That’s it?!” Yuuji screams, heartbroken, and visibly deflating.
Megumi shrugs, “Yuuta probably knows more. She’s his exchange buddy friend thing, so ask him.”
“I can’t ask him, he’s right next to her!” Yuuji pouts, “Wait, what does ‘exchange buddy friend thing’ mean? You don’t think they’re more than friends, right…? I can’t blame her, senpai is really pretty, too, and he can actually talk to her… so unfair.”
“You know, she’s not fluent, but she can understand some Japanese,” Megumi reminds him, “So, she can definitely hear you, and probably understand you.”
Yuuji’s shoulders slump, and once again, he turns around to look back at you. This time, you two make eye-contact, and that instant, Yuuji’s cheeks go pink, a nervous hand raised to wave at you, and instant internal regret at his actions; but, then you smile, and wave back, and Yuuji stays like that, dumbfounded and lovestruck and on autopilot as he waves with hearts in his eyes until Yuuta looks up from his phone and catches him.
Embarrassing. He knows he’s not the brightest, but he’s at a record high of self-embarrassment since he’s met you.
Yuuta finds himself chuckling when Yuuji spins around and goes back to prodding Megumi with questions. When you turn to face him again, it’s with a shy smile.
“I told you you’d like him,” Yuuta grins—the kind that seems sweet and innocent, but has just a kiss of that all-knowing tease to it; the kind that reminds you that he’s truly related to Satoru.
“Oh, be quiet,” you grumble, tucking your legs in and resting your chin on your knee. You spare another glance in Yuuji’s direction, for once, grateful for the language barrier between the two of you, when you turn back to Yuuta to proclaim: “I can like someone and not do anything about it. You’re real good at that, aren’t you?”
Yuuta’s slightly cocky grin falls into a scowl, and now you get to smile when he argues back, “We said not to bring up he who shall not be named in the presence of my friends!”
“Then don’t bring up my he who shall not be named in the presence of him!”
“Aren’t Americans all about forging new frontiers and chasing after your dreams?” he taunts, “Well, your dream is right in front of you.”
“My dream right now is to kill you.”
“Lucky for me, you’re going to have to hold off on that because your lover boy is approaching.”
You don’t have time to argue back with Yuuta when Megumi and Yuuji approach the living area with snacks in tow. Yuuta scoots to the tail end of the couch under the guise of giving Yuuji space to place the popcorn and nuggets in the center of the coffee table, but he has just enough time to flash you a wink before Yuuji settles in between. Megumi opts for the loveseat closets to Yuuta’s end of the couch, and you do your best not to reach over Yuuji and strangle Yuuta.
The boys decide on watching a movie you’ve never heard of, but Megumi reassures you it’ll be easy to follow and has English subtitles. You don’t mind, settling in to your corner of the couch with a handful of popcorn just as the title-screen for Human Earthworm 3 rolls across the TV.
You can follow along well-enough—even without subtitles, you get the gist of the movie. What you really find entertaining is Yuuji, who occasionally blurts out a comment or exclamation, or audibly coos whenever something sad is happening on screen. He’s almost as animated as the characters; you’re more of the silent-watcher type, but you find yourself endearing by this commentary, even if you can only understand parts of it.
You particularly appreciate the way that after every comment, he either motions to Megumi, or turns to you himself to repeat his thoughts in his best broken English, and even when you don’t understand his words, you understand him. His emotions are all on his sleeve: frustration, happiness, confusion, curiosity—communication between you two should be more difficult, but Yuuji makes it easy.
It gives you the confidence you cough out your own observation, “You, um… you’ve… seen the others? You seem to like this series.”
Across the room, Megumi and Yuuta hold their breaths, opting to not translate for you when you switch from Japanese to English. Yuuji is quiet for a moment, turned to face you with a slightly confused look on his face that makes you nervous, until his eyes brighten up and he smiles and begins nodding fervently—“Yeah—yeah, I do! It’s my… hm how do I say it… Oh! It’s my favorite!”
Between the smile on his face, the blush on his cheeks, and sincerity in his voice, you feel like you’re wrapped up in his world. It’s a little confusing, and scary, but it’s not all that bad. Maybe you can do something about it, eventually.
“I.. I think I like it, too.”
#anonymous#i love love through different languages...... love is the ultimate language or whatever satoru gojo said#this au was supposed to be a whole thing#but the toggle between differentiating japanese and english makes it hard ://#the only way i can think of that isnt a complete visual nightmare is with italics but even then... i hardly like using italics to begin wit#sigh... oh he's cute#also there's a WHOLE exchange student yuuta au in my head where hes the love interest#one of those easily 60k aus that would be beautiful but idek how to begin writing it#anyways yuuji cutest boy#yuuji x reader#jujutsu kaisen x reader#jjk x reader#jjk fluff#jjk smut#jujutsu kaisen smut#yuuji itadori x reader#yuji x reader#anyways i have more yuuji smut blurbs to finish but alas i must study 😔#yuuji.ask

Wishing a Glorious 25th of May specifically to people like me who live in area where lilac does NOT bloom in May. Truth! Justice! Freedom! And a floral-based holiday that aligns with my climate zone!
#the glorious 25th of may#the glorious revolution of the people’s republic of treacle mine road#night watch#discworld#I just want to be able to celebrate with the flowers 😔#but alas I discovered this year that lilac blooms here in like. the beginning of April#I was like hmm that doesn’t seem right according to discworld#but I assume Terry pratchett was basing it off of seasons in the uk and not the American Midwest

So I’ve been thinking about the boys combining their powers recently and I ended up really wondering about what would happen if a supercharged Mikey (time/dimensional powers) mixed his abilities with a supercharged Leo’s (space powers) and all I could think of was:
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt mikey#rottmnt leo#portal pals#oops reality as we know it is destroyed lmao#in Donnie and Raph’s corner they straight up make Voltron I bet#bit tired if you couldn’t tell#I’ll make an ACTUAL post pondering the possibilities of combo mystics eventually but alas 2 tired#all the main iterations of tmnt come forward to stop this ‘sudden multiuniversal tear in reality’ and when they wonder how it happened#this is what they see#‘I expected this from a Michelangelo - but a Leonardo?’😔#‘I’m more shocked it wasn’t a Donatello’#‘Give it time’
