#house betelgeuse

[iz1331]

When you think about it, Betelgeuse has probably been providing or helping Lydia with ghost hauntings for Ghost House and making sure Lydia won't be lacking of "clients" and content for her show.

Beej supporting his wifey even from the Afterlife. The Juice even "hired" a whole department of shrinkers (shrink heads?) to manage all the newlydeads wanting Betelgeuse's professional haunting expertise!

From someone who just stays in his grave, sitting on his ratty couch, in his robe, and searching for potential clients from reading the obituary, probably taking up jobs whenever he feels like it because his profession as a bio-exorcist is uniquely his own and definitely not into the whole bureaucracy crap he did when he was Juno's assistant all those centuries ago, a real loose cannon...

To someone who has his own employees, a huge ass office, and mainstreaming his services where the newlydeads and other ghosts were now demanding his work 24/7!

All those centuries of his bio-exorcist schtick before meeting the Deetz-Maitlands, Lydia especially, and he changed his whole work ethic maybe around the same time he found out about Lydia's new career as a ghost haunting show host and exorcist (maybe not exorcist, but she talks to them and makes the arrangements for both living and dead to coexist).

I won't be surprised if in one of Lydia's visits to the haunted houses, Betelgeuse is there and just watches her work. Maybe make himself appear for a split-second to scare or just "say" hello to Lydia, lol. Betelgeuse is such a sucker for her, so obsessed loyal to Lydia that he didn't even try to make another alive person marry him. If he ever gets married (a second time), it's only gotta be with Edgar Allan Poe's daughter (I'm referring to Lydia, btw).

Anyways, basically they're work spouses. Even though one of them doesn't know it, and the other has been pining for the last 30 or so years.

Alive Beetlejuice AU that I am rotating in my brain rn. He is so so bad at acting human, he doesn't even bother looking the part and he has no idea how much money is worth.

Look at us! What a team!

It came late, but it's great to be seen

We're a pair! Holy cow!

Baby, there's no stopping us now!

We are indivisible, unbreakable, formidable!

Guess we ain't invisible no more!

Polish dubbing is sometimes surprising… Here's the evidence:

Sometimes there are creative translations (Kim Possible to "Kim Possible", which is an awesome play on words in this language), or Tinker Bell in the Polish version of "Cynka Dzwoneczek", but sometimes the translations are like Beetlejuice to "Żukosoczek" or "Sok z Żuka" ( Why do the cartoon and the movie have two different titles? I have no idea), ironically, in the crossover version with TTG they left the English version of the name (Or rather not the name… God knows what's going on, pun)

Bill Cipher translated into "Bill Cyferka" (Bill Number?) may already be a classic, and the GF title in Poland is… Wodogrzmoty Ma��e… Yes, they named the fucking waterfall

In TOH King is "King" (Well, ok translation), but Owlbert's name is… Sowbert… Yes, that name resembles "Sorbet", not counting that Raine has male pronouns in the Polish dubbing… Fun

Well, I won't say much about SU, except that they made Ruby a boy… Yeah

In "Loud House" the character Sam has male pronouns… Because it is obvious that she is a boy…

"Paw Patrol" made Zuma a girl and Everest a boy (Older seasons, but the voice stayed the same so lmao)

"Thomas and Friends" here are all the translations from memory: Thomas - Tomek, Peter - Piotruś, Gordon - Gabryś (WTF), James - Kuba, Henry - Henio (Okay, now I'll use the Internet), Edward - Edek, Terence - Tymcio (Sounds similar to the Polish version of a certain spider name), Trevor - Tadek, Duck - Kaczor (Ok), Toby - Tobik, Olivek - Olek (WTF, it is not the same name, Oliver would be Oliwer, Olek is also Aleksander, or rather it is a diminutive of this name), Bulgy - Smrodek, Rusty - Rudik (Piotr Rubik lol), Salty - Sylwek, Harvey - Hubcio, Harold - Harold (Lol), Jack - Jacek, Duncan - Damian, Emily - Emilka, Bill - Wiluś (WTF), Ben - Benio, Fergus - Franek. Rhenead - Radek, Spencer - Szymek... Too big a point, if I had to mention every name I would go crazy

Now a classic: Shaggy - Kudłaty (Good)

Horrid Henry - Koszmarny Karolek, Peter - Damianek (Yes, I don't understand these translations either)

And yes, Loud House also has a lot of names changed to start with "H", but I could never remember all of them, even the English versions, so well…

Since everyone made it to the end, remember to reblog the fundraisers, yes, I prefer to mention it

Thinking about the fact that Betelgeuse is a star specifically in the Orion constellation,,, like just imagine Regulus rocking up like “yes this is my son Betelgeuse Black”

Like you can’t tell me there’s not been at least one Betelgeuse Black out there but also why does the name go kinda hard cnfncjfn

[darrengrave]

I honestly had a better introduction to Beetlejuice than any other kid, because when I was a kid a local haunted house went ALL OUT one year for Halloween and the opening room was a sort of safety brief fakeout that had a call and response that "accidentally" led you into summoning Beetlejuice, who literally crashed in through a wall with two demons on four wheelers who laughed at us and revved their engines and they circled us while Beetlejuice finished the brief. I straight up encountered that motherfucker for the first time in real life.

If someone asks me how my novembers been…. Uhhh. I’m really late to the game guys lol

💎 -squint- idc who but u better be careful

send me a 💎 and my muse will rate your muse’s physical appearance on a scale of 1-10

7/10

Is he flipping through a calendar of her? Is it just her face? Hard to tell from this angle, but considering the mossy leer the Poltergist peruses the pages with, it's unlikely.

"Yuh. That'll do."

One does not know pain until you've pulled a duplicate from a blind box that costs a fortune 😭

Even more painful WHEN THE PRODUCT/MERCH IS STILL NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR COUNTRY AFTER WAITING FOR A WHOLE MONTH WITH NO UPDATE 😤

ESPECIALLY WHEN THE SECRET CHARACTERS ARE THESE TWO!!! 😭😭😭

Beetlejuice 🤝 House of the dragon

Having married (or almost married) chaotic characters who deserve each other and who are (or get called) uncle and niece

Betelgeuse was sulking!

CAN I JUST SAY, to this day I still think cutting out "Children We Didn't Have" from the Beetlejuice musical was a huge mistake.

When I watched the musical and they sang "Ready Set" I got the strong impression that they just... didn't actually even WANT kids, but felt like they had to in order to accomplish what they thought was supposed to be an Ideal Life™️

And then when they got around to the second act, I found myself wondering "okay... so what are the Maitlands doing here...?" Because they kind of fell out of relevancy. They no longer wanted to scare ppl out of their home, Lydia wasn't rlly talking to them, and they made Zero mention of the regrets from their life or any current goal.

"Children We Didn't Have" not only makes it clear that this was a Genuine passion of Barbara's, but also connected her and Lydia's character arcs more solidly. Barbara 2.0 in comparison feels like, a weaker attempt at what the cut song did perfectly and emotionally, and removes the Maitlands' original big character aspect of "regretful would-be parents" by referring to Lydia as a friend instead of a daughter figure :/

Just. LISTEN TO THIS:

SHOULDA KEPT IT 🥺

What will BJ house be like?

Oh my goodness! To be honest, I can't picture his house! It might be a chaotic mess, with costumes and trinkets and collectibles lying all around. Noisy rather than peaceful; the man likes his theatrics so there might be music or movies playing all the time, when he's not putting on the show himself 😆. And he doesn't mind bugs crawling all around, so those will be there for sure (the poor guy can't help it, though, being a dead guy and all).

If he marries Lydia, though, the picture will be different. There might be a clash of stripes and gaudy decor with black and goth motifs 😅. Nah, that's me half-joking. I think whatever Lydia wants their home to look like, that's how it will be. If Betel's living by himself, I can only go by the looks of his office desk in the sequel. It wasn't that disorganized; just a few bugs crawling about, which he can't help, but at least he doesn't mind them at all (in fact he totally eats them, so...). He'll have framed photos of Lydia around, too and a room with an altar to worship her. oops lol I'm sure I saw something about him having one in the cartoon, at least inside his head.
