Why did I not know until just now that two of the most iconic queens from a '90s kid's childhood...

...played sisters in the movie Ghost?

Does anyone else think that Patrick nearly flubs his "Hop Diamond" line? I swear he's about to say "Hope Diamond" but stops himself...

UM CONCEITO DIFERENTE: CARMILLA (1989), VERSÃO DE UM CLÁSSICO LITERÁRIO

Okay, I actually have some behind-the-scenes thoughts about this episode specifically dealing with Reece Holland (Hare) being gone.

It was revealed by Reece that he was absent from this episode because he had to go home for the funeral of his father. Because they filmed two episodes a week, he was allowed leave after filming his parts of (presumably) For Better or Verse. This is admittedly one of the episodes that I've watched the least, not only because it's minus Hare but also because of what his absence means.

But what I find so interesting is that his absence was obviously not planned out and Hare was originally included in this episode. So that first song in the episode was probably originally supposed to be sung by Hatter and Hare, not Hatter and the Queen! You can kind of tell because the song includes the harmonizing/vocalizing stuff that Hatter and Hare typically do together in their early songs. Also, Queenie is overly chummy during this number. It's been a while since I've seen the episode but I'd assume that his spoken lines were passed out to the other characters as well.

((I also can't help but notice that they replaced the second-best singer in the show with the strongest singer they had on cast, Armelia McQueen. Goes to show the range she had and the talent behind Reece as well.))

Hare wasn’t in the Mirthday episode at all and seeing Hatter without him (especially at a tea party) gave me like, second-hand separation anxiety. The hubsbands just don’t feel right without each other

I honestly think the old money trope in Ketu nakshatras honestly comes from their trine with Magha. Magha signifies the bloodline, kingliness, ancestry and it is symbolized by the throne.

I hope to find more examples with Magha only though. So far, what I have, is the character Red Queen who has been played by Magha natives.

Such as Magha Moon Helena Bonham Carter in Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland.

Magha Moon Emma Rigby in Once Upon A Time.

Ashwini Moon (trine nakshatra) Armelia McQueen in Adventures in Wonderland.

Magha Moon Verna Felton in Alice in Wonderland original animation.

Verna Felton's Red Queen reminded me of Darla Dimple who is an extremely spoiled psychotic brat who's treated like royalty and always has to get everything her way. Ashwini Moon Ashley Peldon voiced Darla Dimple. Stereotypical of Ketu, as she functions like a vacuum, sucking in everything her way.

Obviously this is a negative manifestation of the tyrannical Ketuvian.

I laid out the Magha connections in King Arthur, which also consisted of trine nakshatras. But that's all I have for now.

Oh and of course! How can I forget Azula! She is royalty too! She is voiced by Magha Sun Grey DeLisle. Another terrible manifestation of Magha, though. That's why I love her so much.

I had a dream last night that TeaforTen and I were working on a live production of Adventures in Wonderland and we wandered into Armelia McQueen's dressing room and she was sitting at her vanity and I was all "Wow, I'm surprised you're here!" and she said "Well, I'm the Queen? Where else would I be?" and I was all "Yeah yeah, that's true..." and then she told us what a good job we were doing and how she was thankful for the work we had been doing on the show and keeping it going and, like...

If angels are a thing I think one visited me last night.
