The Doctor, regenerated, finally stumbles back to the TARDIS; it has been conducting its own repairs, its its own restructuring. And something is wrong. They step up the spiral walkway to the central platform, waiting for the console pillar to be visible. Instead, in the middle, there is a stool. On the stool is a hurdy-gurdy. They sigh in resignation to their new life, hurdy-gurdling through time and space.

Flat color commission for Steven! Featuring Scarlet David playing a hurdy-gurdy. Such a unique instrument, and so suitable for pirate songs 😁

PLEASE talk about your hurdy gurdy fixation I've also had one for years and I barely see anything about it

Oh my god thank you for enabling me.

Genuinely such a cool instrument with a unique sound that I can tell "oh shit this song has a hurdy gurdy in it". It's been a dream of mine to either make enough money to buy my own or work together with a friend to build one from scratch. No, neither of us know how to build nor know anyone who has experience building this instrument from scratch. It'll be a Fuck It We Ball kind of approach.

I've had a passive interest in old middle eastern/european instruments for a while (mainly percussion) but I think the album I listened to that really kicked my interest into overdrive was Guilhem Desq's 2018 album "Visions", which was composed and performed using only the hurdy gurdy and his voice. Truly one of my favorite albums of all time, each piece evokes such a strong image in my brain and there's so many techniques and aughghghgh. Listen to it if you haven't. Also listen to his more recent album Storm (2022), it's got added percussion, brass, and vocalizations, but it's really good. Visions is still my fav though.

When I traveled to Italy this past summer I actually got to see some pretty old hurdy gurdies in person and it was really cool!! It's so funny seeing an instrument that used to be big enough to require two people in order to play it shrunk down to be perfectly lap sized. Humble creatures.

To close the year up my favorite project I have worked on this year:  a wood burning  on my new hurdy gurdy, hopefully I will have lots of time in the new year practice playing it

I picked Angharad. She just didn't deserve to die after all that fight, and I know she'd made plans for the future that would have changed the world.

Every time I watch MMFR, I hold my breath a little bit hoping Angaharad will survive just this once. Obviously, it's silly. I love how many people recognize her in this poll! @evilasiangenius says, "the leader of the revolution should have had the chance to build that new world that was only dream of" and it felt so good to see those words. It's so great to see Angharad recognized so fully. I think a casual viewer *could* see Furiosa as the leader, but she wasn't. She was the vehicle, The War Rig personified.

And in the end, that's actually why I think, narratively, that she's perhaps one of the most important people to die. The rest of my revolutionaries - at the very least Capable and Cheedo - I felt were on this ride holding onto Angharad's coat tails. Even Furiosa was until that point in it out of a sense of vengeance, not community or revolution.

Angharad's passing forces them all to find their own reasons for what they were doing. I think it also forces them to see the courage it takes in reaching for a new world, one that isn't just like the last but under a new leader.

Could these things have all happened if she lives? Absolutely! But it makes space for it to happen in the few hours we get in the movie. Between that and the added commentary the movie is making about sexual violence, it's the one death that I don't think could have been substituted for anyone else barring Nux. What it does to the narrative is so beautiful.

AND YET!!

I wish she could have lived.

I wish she could have seen Dag adopt so fully into the Vulvalini's culture.

I wish she could have seen Furiosa's desperation to save Toast.

I wish she could have seen Capable lead, to know what it is to find a mind in pain and hold out hope and see it light someone up from the inside.

I wish she could have seen Cheedo's bravery, in pretending to go back only to hold out a hand to the woman who's hellbent on changing her world, all so they could make a new one.

I wish she could have seen The Mother's, unprompted, out of a need to stop suffering, open the floodgates and sustain The Wretched.

I wish I could have seen her reaching into the crowds as they rose up to the Citadel and pulled up the hurt and lost and desperate with the promise of food and shelter and water.

If anyone deserved that, it was Angharad. And oh, how it hurts that she died before she could see all of what her spark ignited.

Someone should give me a hurdy gurdy, as a treat

[bare1ythere]

Why did nobody tell me they gave Chilchuck a hurdy gurdy on this album art??? MASSIVE win for obscure instrument enjoyers
