#game for it' and her response isn't. 'ok whatre the rules

controversial perhaps but ocean did not have any character development. she is the same person at the beginning as she was at the end. the entire musical is her desperately wanting to want to live. wanting to want to put herself first. what the world needs is the person she wants to be and the person she pretends to be and isn't.
#emyrs.txt#rtcm#THIS IS NOT OCEAN HATE. I LOVE HER SO DEEPLY. I SUPPORT WOMEN'S RIGHTS & WOMEN'S WRONGS.#but yes. she wants to be selfish and she wants to live more than anything EXCEPT. that she doesn't want to be the only one brought back.#one of the FIRST questions she asks is.' why cant you bring ALL of us back?' she hears. 'one of u can be brought back but u have to win a#game for it' and her response isn't. 'ok whatre the rules? how do we play?' it's. 'no that's not fair why can't you bring all of us back#why do we have to play a game for it? this isn't fair.'#and yes. she goes super hard into the. i'm the best person ever and the only logical choice. but i think it's mostly a defense mechanism#kinda thing. like. i;m gonna try my best at this game where the outcome is outside of my control (she was still operating under the#assumption that Karnak was going to be the one to choose who lived) and whatever happens happens !#but i think the moment Karnak told the choir it was supposed to be unanimous she sorta gave up. bc she knew she couldn't ever choose hersel#so in her campaigning. in her insistence to everyone that they should choose her. there were two outcomes: 1. everyone chose her yay !#there's no guilt. or 2. she doesn't get chosen and so. no guilt.#does this make any sense. i've been watching a bunch of different ride the cyclone performances and so far Tiffany's performance of Ocean#has been my favorite and the only one who i feel has done it right.#everyone else goes WAYYYYY too hard or not hard enough. tiffany i think manages to hit her just right. anyway
