the dashboard osmosis has zapped your blorbos into my subconscious bc despite not having read a word of svsss last night I dreamed about a musical adaptation of it. thought you should know. (the dream musical kind of slapped btw)
OH MY GOD??? that sounds incredible holy shit now all I can think about is which scenes would make good songs. this is amazing omg I'm so glad my dashboard osmosis powers were strong enough to do this to you
#asks#scribefindegil#if you remember any details from the dream i would LOVE to hear them#i wanna know how this appeared in your dream lol#svsss is such a neglected stepchild when it comes to adaptations. all we have is an abandoned and terrible looking animated version#but A MUSICAL HOWEVER. here's how scum villain can still win#im not a musicals expert but im thinking about how this would be...#if it's capturing all three books then i think the most natural intermission point would be the self detonation scene#i've seen an animatic of that scene set to a cover of please please please that sounded like it was out of a musical#and that's kind of what i'm imagining. really dramatic really emotional. potentially a really stark shift from other songs involving sqq#oooh what if his songs tend to sound a little more modern than other characters'#or they have a particular motif that represents the system.... and then he hears that same motif from sqh and he's like HEY. WAIT A MINUTE.#anyway. back to self detonation. i think that would be an excellent place to end act one#bc the curtains lowering over binghe cradling his body would be SO good#and then you go to intermission and come back to absolutely ridiculous shenanigans and six balls#the climax of the story/love confession would probably really intense at first and then suddenly go soft when sqq reveals the jade guanyin#ouuughghgh thinking about teen binghe having an ''i want'' song as the protagonist#and then getting a fucked up reprise of it later on#isn't there an equivalent of ''i want'' songs for villains. i can't remember what it's called. but i think sqq should have that#just for funsies.#scribe you have given me SUCH brainworms this is excellent

ok ONE more music ask bc i think this is the third one i’ve submitted for the new issue so far:
so i went back & read issue 37 while listening to “drunk walk home” by mitski (both the original and the live at palisades version), timing my reading with the listening so that certain panels & passages would line up with the right points in the song, and dear. fucking. LORD. i wanna make a rainhaze pmv with this so badly. the only question is which version of the song to use
so the best way i can explain it:
*drumbeat intro* - the title page
“i will retire to the salton sea/at the age of 23” - that comic panel at the beginning showing how much he changed
“for i’ve started to learn i may never be free/but though I may never be free/fuck you and your money/i’m tired of your money” - idk exactly how it’d line up with the issue but something something him being influenced by defiance & ranger, something something “you can love someone and still hate/hurt them”
*guitar picks up* - the canine realization and/or slug’s reaction to the murder reveal. some combination of the two.
“and i sit on the curb ‘cause it’s the prettiest night/with no one else in sight/don’t you know i wore this dress for you/these killer heels for you” - rain gets all defensive & tries to justify the murder with the sleep thing & the hypocrisy
“see the dark, it moves/with every breath of the breeze” (+ the buildup before the guitar solo) - “convince them…okay”
*guitar solo* - slug attacks him, big fight scene
and of course the screaming at the end correlates to him screaming as he’s gutted like a baked potato
Nice!! I always love how much thought you put into song choices.

As a Johnny Cash enjoyer I must say I do prefer his cover but of course I love Nine Inch Nails too. More dark and gritty does fit Rainhaze better.

I've never actually listened to or seen Repo, but it does seem like something that would be up my alley. It does fit him too, driving in what he's done and forcing him to remember killing Asphodelpaw.
I remember every dying whisper Every desperate murmur I remember when I gaze upon her She looks just like you I remember, I remember

I like this from Rainhaze's perspective, like he's constantly trying to guess what Ranger wants from him, how much he has to hurt himself to please Ranger.
The waves suck you in then you drown If like, you'd just stay down with me I'll swim down with you Is that what you want?
You hang the anchors over my neck (Saw your end) I liked it at first but the more you laughed The crazier I became

Haha aww, Pinepaw.
I lost some weight from anxious pacing talking on the telephone If I look cool I'm fooling you At any point you can assume My mind's computing every path that screws up what I wanna do
The things that I can't shoulder well I pass onto my older self And hope I learn to cope so I don't end up broke or overwhelmed 'Cause vocally, I'm not the best

Poinsettia is an interesting pull, but I can see it. I hate to say Rainhaze once again but yknow... kinda Rainhaze...
The feelings of regret And now I'm running to forget But know, the consequence of imagination's fear I met a man downtown the other day With ruby eyes that took my life away
Thе antidote we look so hard to find To purge yourself of fear, relax your mind But heaven only knows Where my mind leads, the feeling grows

Someone has actually recently made an incredible animatic set to Ptolemaea, actually! You can see it here.

That's alright, I usually do all the lyric quoting!
Pick up another cigarette Smoke it now and soon you'll forget If only your silver lining had better timing 'Cause there's no crown for one on the way down
Your dull blade and your dusty attire Can bring back all those burning desires So go back to the pit or roll over

I'd love to see the animation if you ever make it! It does have big synergy with "The Death of BarrenClan" event.
Heed the sirens, take shelter, my lover Flee the fire that devours But the sight held me fixed like a bayonet against my throat
It was a pale white horse With a crooked smile And I knew it was my time

Not a song in the world that doesn't make me think of Rainhaze... anyways, I always like a good Hoosiers song.
Everything you love turns to dust, You'd make more of it but you felt rushed By all that's periphery, You held tight, but on the contrary
Don't look your life passed you by, 'Cause you're too attached to it, Don't look your life passed you by, 'Cause you're too attached to it
