Barb (mark 2) made his way belatedly to my mailbox!! (because Barb mark 1 got lost in the mail and is still off having a postal adventure, perhaps in a crevice somewhere)

Having the time of his life in Cherry. I'm so charmed by everything about this! I think I have a nice frame for him somewhere.

Thanks so much for the extra help with this, @hellofromthehallowoods !!

Hfth incorrect quotes!

Minor season 3 spoilers:

It started with me messing with the incorrect quotes generator and things quickly escalated from there

[dathen]

Relistening to Hallowoods episode 33 and can’t wait for Barb and Polly to join forces and break out of the Industry prisons so they can go HOME

Bonus points if it’s after Polly is blinded and Barb has to keep his head above water re: despair

It would round out their interactions from 33 PERFECTLY I need it so much

[ineffablepoet]

Finally getting around to listening to season two of Hello from the Hallowoods and may I say, whatever Barb wants with Polly I don’t like it and I don’t trust it

[artbyacev]

Barb really said "money laundering? 👀"

5 Hallowoods characters (2)

Another batch of 5 Hallowoods characters, all chosen by the lovely @whatlizardry

Here we have a nice bunch of characters from the Resting Place.

Suggest more characters in notes. I’d like to do more of these.

[hello-archivist]

I couldn't resist

Hello from the hallowoods is really good at paralels between characters

the hfth brainrot is going strong and I need to take a bit to rant about how good all of the parralels between all of the characters are because oh my good mx wellman you truly outdid yourself on them

Riot-The Misters R&W-Moth: all three spent their entire time since the black rain in bunkers, only to be forced to leave

Riot-Clara-Moth: all three spent their time isolated in their respective safe houses with their families, only for something to go terribly wrong and them being forced to flee. They lose their parents, but after leaving all found a new mentor/father figure to teach them how to become strong enough to survive

Clara-Olivier: kinda obvious basicaly everybody references how clara is slowly becoming the new olivier and in the season 3 finale they make it even more clear by saying that blackletter didnt even remove olivier from the plan. also both dated riot

Walt-Bern: both were survivors in the woods but while walt used compassion and understanding, bern initialy refused to believe either diggory or olivier should be allowed to survive

Soloman-Irene: both were masters of the dark arts who attempted to reanimate the dead

The Resting Place crew-The Grand Crossroads crew: a group of a renagade devil, a powerful creature animated by the black rains, and a woman who takes her power from another indiscribably who acts as a lancer and supporter of the devil

The Countess-The Count: kinda obvious dont think I need to explain this one

Diggory-Cindy: connection to rizwana and dedication to stopping the end of the world

Diggory-Mort: deceased members of Rizwanas doomed expedition who in the end have to choose which one of them will die saving the world

Diggory-Creep: beings who have stolen the memories of Rizwanas expedition mixed with the black water

Friday-Penny: both have luck based powers that cause them to remain trapped and isolated being tormented for years

Nikignik-Ethel: both communicate stories through dreams, but LEM uses it to talk about herself and tell her own story, while Nik barely ever talks about it, especialy in season 1

Walt&Riot-Winona&Alena: young person with older mentor with a special sword

Ray-Gale-Bill: Moths 3 father figures, each of which take a different approach towards raising moth

Buck&Rick-Hector&Jonah: another pretty simple one

Jonah-Faceless King-Rat King: three kings of the end with three different perspectives on what that means for them

Marolmar-Nikignik-Xizikxiz: watch starcrossed gods please even if you have never watched a single episode of the show before I am begging you its so good

Al-Percy: the two ghosts, both only have one friend who can ever see them and carries their instrument around and a bad single parent

Ms Wicker-Indrid: both mothers who join the church of the hallowed name and have a chance to save their son from the spring service

Riot-Clementine: I really should not need to explain this one

I could go on for literal hours but literaly you can choose any two characters and their stories will parralel each other in some way and let you see something new/unique about how each handles their situation in contrast to the other.

If you have not watched HFTH please do so it is genuinely the best podcast if not the best story I have ever seen(or heard? its a podcast so im not sure what proper terminolodgy would be)

I love when I'm expecting an okay episode of HFTH, only to be surprised and blessed with my favorite characters.

I just listened to episode 54, and before I listened to it I was like, "Oh, I don't know a Gale so that's a new person so eh, Riot is pretty good but not like Polly or anything PHENOMENAL, and Barb is not a good guy."

Well, I just listened to it and oh my gosh, I got MOTH, one of my favorites from right when I met moth, and finding out that Percy was a horse girl and all of Riot/Olivier/Diggory/Percy's little quirks in their story, and then POLLY.

This was an episode to behold :)

Capitalism is a god, with the crucial flaw of a god: it can damn you, but it can't make you worship.

When you are asked to revere its altars as sacred, understand that it's a confession of weakness: if you pissed here, it would hurt.

Favourite/most memorable quotes from hfth? (i want to make art)

I’ll open that one up to the audience! What are some of your favorite HFTH quotes, folks?

[laroldtheheralddd]

Wanted to make a Hello from the Hallowoods Animatic for awhile now but I have too many ideas with too many characters so…let the people decide for me

Song playlist under the cut

Songs are in the same order as the pull

It’s a YouTube playlist because i am incompetent with Spotify

Note: you smell of dead Flowers’s lyrics arnt in the actual song and just appear on screen so they are easy to miss

Oh god I had to retype all this just to fix the poll duration help me

Hfth ep 54

—yay moth made it to moths family! I totally missed that moths dad was that guy who joined the dreaming boxes

—I wonder if moth and ray will reunite in the future

—this seems like there a whole small community living here, hope we get to know more of them, seems like a good place.

—road trip gang road trip gang! Jfbdjdbsj diggory “I wish I had a whole personality” XD wow diggory. And Percy was a horse girl [boy]! Damn it’s really Olivier bullying hours huh

—hallowed rat king. Wonderful.

—this is a new approach from lady Ethel and it’s creeping me the fuck out

—yesss trap the rats. Oh wait. It can split. Shit. Damn this is one powerful trance ability

—kitty cat! Kitty cat! Yessss listen to Olivier we need to keep the cat. New members joining the party!

—Percy seems so much noticeably happier this episode. Out of the forest, away from everything that happened with his dad…he’s teasing Olivier and talking about being a horse kid and looking at the cute cat. You can just hear in his voice how much more carefree he sounds <2 good for him

—hmm so demons can run out of fire. Interesting

—I love how hard this podcast goes on the “souls/fire = money” metaphor, it’s great. The fact that all demon magic is fueled by people’s souls is unnerving tho. …do demons have their own souls???

—very worried by this deal of barbs, but it seems pretty clear of his intentions. He just wants part of the power Polly stole. And of course Polly just wants to protect his family 😭
