#idk where aj and tom are

[haveihitanerve]

Ok IDK how the fuck they came up with it-

maybe Luke found wings and a pumpkin dress and went "fuck yeah I'm pumpkin queen now." or maybe they just had too many fucking pumpkins-

but all SFTH fans please take a look at the following video of Luke and Sam being roommates where Luke is an obnoxious pumpkin queen who just annoys Sam a lot-

the periodic cuts to Luke just having the time of his life while Sam looks ready to kill himself are peak comedy

also they're so young 😭

also the ending bit- fucking hilarious. best thing on the internet.

[i-may-be-an-emu]

Tom and Pip are such a sweet couple oh my gosh

[instantpansies]

ok so @mostlyintact and i were talking about the strengths of each of the sfth boys, and i think i was finally able to get some words out, so i thought i'd make a real post lol. a brief summary of each of their strengths, and examples of plays where those things are visible.

longish post, so i'll put it under the cut.

aj: he really shines in caesar and juliet. the narrative sort of revolves around juliet, and aj gets to really drive the story forward. his portrayal is iconic and natural and just so fun to watch. also, he's excellent in the oopsie daisy bulge, the grape depression, and priscilla's final petal: all plays in which he's got a whole lot of control over the way his characters are going, and gets some shining moments to drive the scenes forward in really compelling ways. he really reveals himself as a director and storyteller. also obviously death for a dollar, where he IS the actual narrator. to be honest, aj might be my favorite from an acting standpoint: his quick turnarounds and seemingly wild word associations and ability to grab a single piece of information and turn it into a whole story is both amazing and very similar to my own style of improv, and seeing him do it so well (even if he gets made fun of for being confused) is just. delightful. idk. his scenes where he's playing two characters at once (in grapression and oopsie daisy) might be the best of all the boys', to be honest.

sam: i think he does well when he's the center of a web of connections. his performance in, say, the evil make-a-wish kid is really fun, where the narrative is focused on him alone, but my favorites are things like the mystery of the midnight circus, the unrelenting aubergine, strange noises, or moist and magical. his characters feel more like an "everyman" in some ways, but always with a really unique personality. theyre relatable without being blank slates. excellent protagonists made better by their worlds. he takes the energy surrounding him onstage and sends it electric at the audience, using his surroundings to bring you in. it's really cool

tom: he is absolutely enamoring as certain archetypes. and he does an excellent job of making an impact with even the smallest amount of screentime. i'm always a sucker for abigail from the neighbour's under the bed--the monologue, the mannerisms--but a lot of that comes from a whole lot of overanalysis of her character, and that's not really relevant here. instead i'll say he's really really good at capturing the audience in death for a dollar, wild wet and worrisome, ballet on the battlefield, wine under the bridge, and priscilla's final petal. but tbh i could point to memorable scenes from almost every single tom character, he's so good at making his time count. his english degree comes out, ofc, which gives us those glorious tomologues, but also he can build up tension so naturally and make a silly story seem so real for a moment. sometimes that "oscar bait" moment can distract from the plot as a whole, but you don't think about it while you're watching him because he's so good at filling the space (to use a theater term).

luke: he's the absolute king of sympathetic characters. no matter how ridiculous the rest of the play is, you can always count on him adding a layer of humanity to his characters. it's easy to see in the milkman, of course, but also in divorces and teddy bears, wine under the bridge, toby's secret pocket, and the grape depression. his people are human, in ways that the others sometimes forget to be, and his storylines are impressively coherent. he seems to be the most concerned with getting the details right--sam nitpicks to get a laugh, but luke keeps track of details really really well, and does a good job of bringing in little things that make a story come together beautifully. more than anything, though, he is so good at building a character throughout a story and leaving you actually satisfied with what you got.

they each have really unique and somewhat specific strengths, but they complement each other so well. i think that's part of the appeal of sfth - they're so so comfortable with each other and find it so easy to read each other that you can tell they're having fun. it feels natural. they click, almost all the time, and even if things go off the rails they can pick up the debris from the crash and run with it. that's what i found really appealing about them--as someone who loved improv when i got to do it, it makes me wish i had friends close enough to do that with. it takes a ton of trust and a really solid relationship to do that, and i just. i just think they're neat :)

thank you so much mostlyintact, i can't come up with this sort of thing without prompting and i can't wait to see if you end up posting smth too 👀 love hyperspecific analysis

[thelegendofmrrager]

approaches you what's one of your favorite ever characters in media? tell me all about it. chinhands.

*bats my eyes* ohh i love this question thank u AJ

I reeeally like Daffy Duck. Idk why it took me so long to think of a character bc it's Him. For a pretty personal reason actually! When I was in high school I had pretty low self esteem and didn't really like myself at all; daffy was one of those characters I wanted to embody bc he had a lot of traits that I desired in myself (self confident to a degree of cockiness, immune to others' criticisms, vain, likes to think himself to be the most interesting person in the room... additionally, i loved billy joe cobra as a character for the same reasons haha).

All those are on the extreme side of the personality spectrum so like,, i didn't want to be self absorbed or anything like that, but I wanted to be my biggest fan in the same way that he is his own biggest fan. A lot of other characters in the LT universe find Daffy to be obnoxious and hard to tolerate, and to some degree that was my outlook on myself. So I looked to Daffy as a sort of blueprint to combat that inner saboteur.

Alsoooo I just find his character to be one of the more entertaining to watch out of all the other Looney Tunes, I don't think he gets the same accolades that Bugs gets despite having appeared first. I think he's one of the best aspects of Space Jam, he gets a cool little introspective scene in Looney Tunes: Back in Action where he opens up to Bugs about being envious of the admiration and success Bugs gets, aaaand Duck Dodgers went hard as fuck. The intro especially cuz who the fuck thought "hey let's get Tom Jones and The Flaming Lips into the studio and crank out a banger"

[damaged-collateral]

Since ONE person asked heres an unquantifiable portion of everything that I found during my fall down the rabbit hole:

Paul G Raymond Channel: https://youtu.be/N3DwWLfloYI?si=2-LLKvBX7CzPIcJo Both Luke and AJ are in this I fucking love the awkwardness mixed with the wholesomeness pls do go check out his other shorts too Paul is great

In Cahoots: https://www.youtube.com/@InCahootsComedy Luke and Paul's old comedy duo channel Civilized People is sooo good and both AJ and Luke are in it, theres also another skit with Luke called How to spot a terrorist Rosie Holt who has featured in some SFTH shows also shows up in a video! Agent Ironneck: https://www.lbbonline.com/work/81627 Tom stars in this one. I love it so much idek what was going on but I love it Two Actors: https://www.youtube.com/@twoactors1683 SUPER old channel by AJ and one Jamie Seymour AJ is in most of them and Tom also shows up in a few vids Camping with Greg https://youtu.be/SSl18E1a9g0?si=PnOVrQPMEFaofVQ1 the best one in my humblest of opinions @8:58 https://youtu.be/c4d6JscbDXU?si=lCi5Da3SCaIB12uD Luke and Paul doing a lil improv scene

The Educatoror: https://youtu.be/_jKtJw6sX4Q?si=6h6vsDgZqe5Sa-2r Luke shows up in episode 2 ngl I didn't watch the rest 😭 but as former tech class assistant I can confirm he got the role down In Cahoots on BBC Asian Network: https://youtu.be/y3QvluaHLrA?si=6uzd7LIcjyZGY5lD https://youtu.be/CaHjUaD71SY?si=JIk-QO0PcKK34pCZ Some More In Cahoots: https://youtu.be/dUoN3Z_cUqM?si=pfXtNAA1EPc0SAV4 Sketchtopia: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b09yvksy The Monster: https://youtu.be/YsiFLYQopcU?si=a1D309KGZGoMaq8_ Luke (and Paul!) show up in the middle but I wld reccomend watching it through its a super well made little film

Support Acts: https://www.youtube.com/@supportacts4497 Three episode lil show starring Luke (and Paul! and Rosie Holt!) shame none of the vids seem to have many views cause I loved them

Black and White Bushido: https://youtu.be/H2q4j6T0y1U?si=QcBuNnNhmjFSHUxR Nintendo ad that Luke is in

The London Traffic Warden: https://youtu.be/k5H_zwOn6cI?si=fp8yJGvGUohqii8R I think Sam is in this??? But I could not point out where Dalstionian: https://www.willwebbful.com/work-1/dalstonian Absolutly beautifuly directed short starring AJ

The Pineapple Friends: https://www.youtube.com/@thepineapplefriends4075 Some improvised sketches AJ shows up in most AJ got some acting chops: https://youtu.be/ubpskHZWTos?si=tiJEs9QJR78BcDNq

AJJJJJJ: https://www.youtube.com/@lofifilm25 Ofcourse AJs amazing short films f r e d (is that how its typed?) is genuinly amazing plssss go check his stuff out its so freaking cool

Theres probably more stuff I mostly included sketch/acting related stuff this spiral mostly started because I had an energy drink for the first time in years and no pressing work to do and I just LOOOOVE the specific style of sketch comedy that In Cahoots and Paul and Luke did cause its the sort of silly shit I make with my own improv group and I just love those vibes. Anyways half this stuff was probably already found by ppl in the discord which I still have yet to join, and this doesnt feature lots of things they acted directed produced or wrote for, but thats all available online so go look for it urself. I also am new to tumblr so I have no clue if this will show up to the person who even asked for the recs so @hellsquills idk is that good???

couldn't sleep and went so deep down the sfth rabbit hole looking into every fucking thing these guys have ever made/been in and finding videos with like <50 views or from over 10 years ago and I can confirm these fellas have always been funny

A message to my Moots

Hey all, I originally wasn’t gonna do this cause I honestly didn't even know where to begin (I still don't tbh) but I said that I’ll still give it a try cause I wanted to tell you all my feelings before the new year rolls around (for me at least lol). So let’s get too it.

Firstly thank you to every single person that follows me, or has read any of my fics or liked any of my edits or even just interacted with me in any form. Thank you for the immense love and support that I’ve received on this site, honestly I didn't expect to make any friends here and the fact that I was able to meet and befriend so many amazing people. So I just wanna say thank you so much for being a part of my life. I’ve always put up walls and I’m really bad at getting close to others but Tumblr was the first site that I’ve really felt comfortable enough to be the real me. So thank you for that.

Now on to the Mentions

I had no idea how to start this so I decided to start at the beginning.

@mingishoe -Luna, you were the reason that I joined Tumblr in the first place, your fics brought me here and your interactions with other blogs opened up so many doors for me and helped me to interact and befriend so many amazing people. You were the first person that I ever sent an ask to, you made me feel so comfortable and welcome so thank you for that. Thank you for being you, a literal moon; bright and beautiful always lighting up the way. I honestly don't think that I would ever be able to explain how much I love, admire and look up to you, I honestly can’t find the words. Honestly, just thank you for being there for your little anon (Idk if you know which anon I am though lol)

@vocalyunho -Ames!!!!! The 2nd person that I followed! an absolute angel. You are such a calm soul and I just love your vibe and energy so much. I think that I’ve said this a million times but you just make me feel so safe and secure, you have such a calm and capable aura that is just so soothing to me. Thank you for coming into my life and being the amazing person that you are.

@jonghoshoe -ZAD!!! Baby Brother! My Teddy Bear! My Sunflower!! Where do I even begin?!? You were basically my first friend on Tumblr (and I am even more grateful to Luna cause I found you through her). IDK what it was about you but you had such an amazing out look on life while still being chaotic in the best way possible. I would wake up every morning and look out for your posts cause you would always make me smile. Without even knowing it you became a big part of my life and I am so grateful for that. You were my motivation when I was feeling down, you encouraged me to see the good things in the word, you hyped me up to write fics; honestly you are part of why I am the Gabby that I am today and I cant thank you enough for that, I love and admire you so much.

Next on my list is my little bunny @lustjoong -PK PK PK, my knee loving queen!!!! IDEK what to say cause I feel as though I confess my love to you at least twice a week on discord lol. I love talking with you, you're incredibly level headed and give amazing advice (which I always need cause I’m a mess lol). I’ve said this before but I’ll say it again that I admire you so much and would of never imagined that I would of ever gotten the chance to talk to you (much less be able to call you my friend) cause in my mind I always saw you as this amazing and untouchable writer (but then I realized that I’m taller than you so... lol I’m kidding). I’m happy that you found out that I was messaging you on anon and thank you for reaching out to me. I look forward to more chaotic conversations and knee pics in the new year.

@atiny-piratequeen -FIE I FREAKING LOVE YOU SO MUCH THAT I MIGHT EXPLODE!! You fill me with so much life that I cant even begin to explain. I’ve said this a million times before but I love how you aren't afraid to speak you mind and say how you feel. You're such a strong figure to me here on the platform and I've always admired how natural and bold you are with your opinions. I find your personality to be extremely refreshing and welcoming, I was never afraid to interact with you (I combusted when you sent me an ask but that’s only natural..) so thank you for providing me (and a lot of other Atiny) with a safe and welcoming place that we can come to.

@twancingyunhoe -Allyssa!!! My mom!!!! My cookie baking, Yunho loving, cat mom!! where do I even begin?? Thank you for being an absolute angel! You shine so brightly here and you're always so supportive to literally everyone. I am and always will be there for you no matter what so I want you to remember that in the coming year. and remember that I love you in your highs and your lows and I am available to provide cuddles anytime they are needed or wanted cause you are precious to me ok luv.

@felixs-moonlight -my little duckling AJ!!! I’m wishing you the best in the new year cause that's what best bois deserve! You are so incredibly sweet and caring so don't you ever forget. Even if you do forget don't worry cause I will always be there to remind you.

@seoultraveller -Cat. Your presence makes me so happy!! IDEK what it is I just love seeing you on my dashboard, when I don't see you I wonder how you are. I hope that this new years is treating you well. Also, you are NOT boring and lets talk a lot more in the coming year okay luv

@yunhozone -Jey!! I miss you, I hope that you're well, its been raining lately so I hope that you're staying dry and safe. I love your boldness and sense of humor so please don't ever change. i started following you on a whim and I have never regretted following you ever since. You make me smile and laugh so much and I hope that I can do the same for you in the coming years. Stay safe okay luv

@pirate-hongjoong -Kayla, lets both talk more in the coming year ok luv. I pretty much told you everything that I wanted to on your post so I’ll try to keep this short. I think that you're really sweet and we should get to know each other more, I’ll try to reach out some more and be a little less shy. so lets continue to grow our friendship okay.

@taelepathysroom -You were the first friend that I made on Tumblr all on my own (meaning that I didn't see you interacting with a moot or anything, I found you all by myself) to this day I don't remember how I mustered up the bravery to message you. I remember wanting to message you on anon and realizing that you had anon off and I STILL went for it lol, apparently I was wilding. But that was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, I love talking with you and receiving all of your extremely important messages and I look forward to many more (my heart is not ready but it is fine).

@moongaera -Gaera you are such a great motivation to me and I’m so happy to be a part of your life. You are so sweet and incredibly talented. I love seeing you on my dashboard and talking with you cause you honestly make my heart want to explode.

@yungidreamer - Big sister!!!! Kelsi!!! My aesthetic queen who I am convince is tryna kill me on our discord chat you are so kind and helpful and give such great tips. You are such a calm soul and I love interacting with you (especially when things feel crazy) its like you just magically know the answer to everything.

@yunhoiseyecandy -Violet, we don't really talk much but I think that you're really cool and fun so lets talk lots in 2021 ok. Also IDK why I felt like this was the perfect place to post this but you're the only moot whos emoji pops up when I start to type their name in the hashtags and I always thought that its really cute. (You're also really cute). I think that we would be really good friends so I cant wait to talk with you more.

@hwaberrykiwi -CAM CAM CAM CAM CAM!!!!!! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!! You are so fun to talk to and so sweet and so calming and you make my heart feel like its bursting (in the best way possible). I hope that you're well and I look forward to sharing more moments here with you on Tumblr (and I am still keeping my promise of not eating Lemon Bars if they aren't from you so...)

@atinywrites -Angel!!! My precious, little angel who always attacks my poor little heart. I love your messages and how you just pop up randomly and shower me with love (then I read your posts and you're just straight up roasting people JBJDJFILJFISREHF) I love absolutely everything about you and I’m really happy that we met each other, I cant wait to see what 2021 has in store for us.

@choisans-dimples -Cass my dearest little Sugar Plum, apart from you being absolutely precious you are also extremely previous to me. I remember our first interactions and they still bring a smile to my face (we were like Tom and Jerry and honestly in a way we still are lol). But you mean so much to me and you never fail to make me laugh or smile no matter what is going on in my life. I wish for you to never lose that smile in 2021 and if it ever begins to falter just know that I’m here ok luv

@latte-fairytaekwoon -Latte, I’m not gonna lie; when Mei started adopting family members I felt like my brain was gonna explode but I gotta hand it to her cause she has great taste in family cause she chose you. If it wasn't for her then I probably would of never found you. if that happened then who would spoil me rotten?!? I am so happy to have met you I honestly thrive every time I see you on my dashboard, you are absolutely hilarious and I love to see your interactions. I cant wait to see what you do in 2021 and all of the other years to come. Thanks for being a great Tumblr Mom

@little-precious-baby -Mei, where do I begin?? You came out of no where for me, you just sort of appeared and then in the blink of an eye you became so dear to me. Id just find myself looking out for your posts and wondering how you are. IDK how to explain it but you've somehow managed to bring so many amazing individuals together in such a short time, you're absolutely amazing and I hope that one day you'll be able to see yourself the way that we already see you. Ik that things can be hard (and they will be because that’s life) but just know that this family that you helped to bring together is always here for you when you need someone to confide in and when it feels like its too much and you need a break we’ll be right here waiting for you until you come back. Just remember that your big sis loves you ok my little bean.

@ateez-little-star -JAS!!!!!! My babie sister IDK how to write this without crying cause you make me so happy that idek what to do. You are so bold and brave while still being shy and cute, I cant explain it. You are so wholesome to talk to and so fun and interesting and sweet and loveable! Like how could someone not love you!! Thank you for always checking up on me and showering me with love and just making me smile.

@yunhofingers -My sweet little bean who definitely never behaves badly!! I am sending you all of the positive vibes for the new year. Ik that things wont always be easy but just know that I’m always here and I believe in you. You are so sweet and kind and bold and I love that about you, don't ever change and thank you so much for making me smile; I hope that I can do the same for you in 2021 and beyond cause I hope that we can be friends for a really long time.

I also wanted to include the moots that I do interact with but I also want to talk to even more in the coming year. Thank you for being here for both me and other people in the kpop community. I love your blogs and you all are so incredibly kind (and ridiculously entertaining; I’m looking at you Caly and Vivi lol), I hope that we can become even better friends.

Okay so I know I haven't been doing Strictly song and dance posts this series but I need to SCREAM about these ones cos IT'S HALLOWEEN so let's just go for it

Sara and Aljaz: Queen of the Night by Whitney Houston (Couple's Choice) - Can't say I know the song I may well do when I hear it but CC I'm interested to see.

Rhys and Nancy: The Eve of the War by Jeff Wayne (Paso Doble) - THIS IS WHY I CAME ON HERE SCREAMING THEY'RE DOING WAR OF THE FUCKING WORLDS do you know something funny I was genuinely listening to this song this morning, and I thought to myself "I hope someone does a Paso or something to this on Strictly idk if I've seen one" AND THEY ARE YEEEEEEEEEES best one not much can beat this I'm sorry I'm listening to it now oh this brings back memories from primary school this is gonna be absolute BOSS.

Judi and Graziano: Physical by Olivia Newton-John (Triple Cha) - Idk what's scary about this apart from some crude joke about Judi's appearance someone with the English flag in their twitter display name is bound to make so let's just move on.

Adam and Katya: Moonlight Sonata by Ludwig Van Beethoven (Viennese Waltz) - I feel like this is one of those songs you know and you know you know but I could not think of what it is, still a nice classical piece of music amongst the funky Halloween songs.

Dan and Nadiya: Rock Lobster by The B-52s (Jive) - AHHH NO COS I JUST THINK OF THAT BIT IN FAMILY GUY oh my god this Halloween week is gonna be an absolute banger I tell you.

John and Johannes: Bad Moon Rising by Creedence Clearwater Revival (Quickstep) - OH THAT'S COOL that's a cool song, I think Susanna and Kevin did this in 2013 if I remember correctly but they did a different dance so it'll be cool to see how they do it in quickstep form.

Tilly and Nikita: Spooky Movies by Gary Paxton (Triple Cha) - Again don't know but by the sounds of it we could have a cool scary movie concept you know there's so many monster ghost creature things at Halloween in general where's the respect for the slasher genre I can't go through Halloween without watching Scream 😂. Watch as it's not that now 🙃.

Rose and Giovanni: Shivers by Ed Sheeran (Tango) - I could make a very cruel joke about how Rose is lucky she doesn't have to go through hearing Ed Sheeran all week but instead I'll say Rose tango might be quite cool 😂.

AJ and Kai: Dangerous Woman by Ariana Grande (Viennese Waltz) - Ahh we've hit the modern pop part of Halloween song choices these are always the dullest so hopefully AJ can do really well and bring something out of a ballroom dance to whatever this song is like idk how it's Halloween-y just cos it says dangerous 😂.

Tom and Amy: Highway to Hell by AC/DC (Tango) - CAN I SAY TOM HAS THE COOLEST KIDS THEY MADE HIM DO THIS SONG I wanna spend Christmas at theirs if this is their top pick song for Halloween flipping heck.

And that's it IS IT OBVIOUS WHICH ONE MY FAVOURITE IS WAR OF THE FUCKING WORLDS IF RHYS AND NANCY WENT LAST WEEKEND AND I KNEW THEY WOULD HAVE DONE THIS SONG I WOULD HAVE CRIED

Yet another year of no Spooky Scary Skeletons tho 😭

[prettyoddfever]

how Jon Walker knew Pete Wentz & Tom Conrad in high school and got involved with Panic! at the Disco:

someone asked how Jon knew Pete before Panic! at the Disco and I feel like any question of how someone's associated with Pete Wentz quickly turns into a tangled web involving half of the mid-2000s scene lol. but here’s a general idea of where Jon Walker fits in.

I guess the fastest place to start is probably when 15-year-old Tom Conrad met Nick Scimeca on a message board in 1999 and then joined the band 504Plan that Nick had started with Mikey Russell (I’m really summarizing here btw. and ok their site said “504plan,” some fans wrote “5o4plan,” and their CD I have says “504 Plan” so idk take your pick). Anyways, their band started playing legit shows in 2001 and then released their CD in January 2002. here’s��Nick & Tom:

504 Plan was kind of ridiculously awesome and their early site had the “We don’t take hits, we only write them” line at the top. Adam Anderson was the bass player at this point and they were doing cool stuff like Warped Tour. 

The band was from Chicago and Fall Out Boy originally opened for them (Pete usually said he met Nick & Tom during a snowball fight in Chicago). It sounded like the bands kept doing occasional stuff together until 504 Plan broke up.

Patrick sang on the song “Breathing Deep” on 504 Plan’s EP in early 2003 and there were lots of pics of them wearing each other’s merch:

speaking of merch... so Nick was the drummer in 504 Plan and did a lot of graphic design stuff around the Chicago music scene (especially for Pete), continued to do work with Clandestine after 504 Plan broke up, did Friends or Enemies, and I don’t know how to sum up all the design & marketing he did with We Can’t Stop Thinking, but basically this is all coming back to how the FBR guys were woven in and out of each other’s lives (ex: Nick was really good friends with William Beckett, he and his friend Travie McCoy became Tequila Mockingbird, and Nick played a part in getting Gym Class Heroes signed by Pete). ok I feel like I’m about to get off-topic in 10 different ways… main point = everyone’s connected. back to JON WALKER:

Nick Scimeca shared a different version of this picture on his blog in 2009 but I didn’t save it, so thank you Jon for posting this one on instagram. super exciting: 

That show is from November 2002 about six weeks after Jon turned 17. One of his high school bands was Farewell Night (here’s some live footage). This isn’t a complete summary of Jon’s early bands btw. I’m just focusing on the main points at which his stuff intersected with this main scene... or at least the aspects I’m aware of. So Farewell Night played many shows with 504 Plan and some with Fall Out Boy. (fun side note: Jon ran the journal updates on Farewell Night’s site with the same tone & varying names that he used 4 years later with P!ATD). Farewell Night broke up when AJ LaTrace left to join The Academy Is... 

504 Plan’s bass player left around the same time, so Jon joined that band next and started touring the country when he was 17 (he was still in high school but it sounded like he took time off to tour?? I heard his dad used to be a guitarist and wanted to see his son succeed). Here’s Jon, Tom Conrad, & Nick Scimeca after a show: 

The band broke up in spring 2004 when Jon was 18. ok I think I’ll just summarize some main points that came next...

key events starting in spring 2004:

17-year-old Ryan Ross meets Brendon Urie for the first time around the time 504 Plan breaks up.

504 Plan shares some unreleased demos on their site with the message "These songs were written between June - October 2003 and recorded in November 2003 by Jon Walker, in our basements. They do not have vocals because after the breakup not everyone was interested in having something complete to look back on later in life. Burn them to cd or in a fire, we do not care."

Jon works at Starbucks and attends Columbia College Chicago where he and his flip flops update his livejournal with lots of pics of the area near his school.

The Academy Is asks Tom Conrad (who was in 504 Plan with Jon) to replace AJ (who was in Farewell Night with Jon).

TAI invites Jon to start doing video & photography stuff for them... I’m not entirely sure at what point Jon starts (I think the first TAI TV video was uploaded in August 2005 and Jon was still working at Starbucks at the start of that month. He was def touring with TAI a few months later, though). For reference, P!ATD had just finished recording AFYCSO and then played their first show ever in mid-August 2005.

So Jon Walker is touring with TAI in January 2006 when Panic! at the Disco starts opening for them (which was 5 months after P!ATD played their first show... and after they’d finished 2 national tours, a string of headlining shows, the IWSNT video, their first big tv appearance, and the interview for their first Alt Press cover... they really came storming onto the scene). Jon fixes Ryan’s guitar pedal, sings the Aladdin soundtrack with Brendon, and they all become good friends (except Brent is MIA in most stories from the band & fans this season. His brother later claims that Brent doesn’t even know who Jon is lol). P!ATD opens for TAI for over 2 months. P!ATD tells Jon by early March that they’re thinking of replacing their bass player.

Brent Wilson fails to show up as P!ATD is heading to LA for the KROQ Weenie Roast on May 13, 2006 and it’s the last straw in his lack of investment. The band fires him & calls their friend Jon to ask him to leave Cassie’s prom (or some kind of dance – the story varied) and take a last-minute flight from Chicago to save their butts. Jon grabs a black outfit and learns the entire set list by ear on the plane. (He’d had some advance notice that he might be replacing Brent, so he had more than a few hours to learn the album that spring, but still... he did it by ear omg). He just listens to their album and then goes onstage in front of like 10,000 people without ever fully practicing with the band nbd (I think they practiced the transitions between songs, though, since those weren’t on the album). P!ATD realizes how lucky they are to find a committed bass player who sings, writes songs, is great in interviews, boosts the band’s morale, plays a range of instruments, and is really good with the fans.

Jon starts doing a lot of the band’s journal updates, Brendon changes his livejournal icon to “Team Jon” stuff and is like an excited little puppy about him, and by the end of summer most fans have embraced Jon as a new favorite (I’m massively summarizing here btw). My own opinion: the band finally felt complete or like they’d found their footing. 

Jon is officially listed as the new bass player at the start of July during the summer 2006 tour.

maybe Pete & Jon’s Lollapalooza afterparty adventures are relevant since Nicholas Scimeca was there too (they’re buried in this tag).

Tom Conrad is kicked out of TAI in October 2006.

Tom announces that he’s tagging along on P!ATD’s Nothing Rhymes With Circus tour to take pictures and says “JWalk and I were actually separated at birth. Believe it.” He shows up in the background of pics from this time too. Tom continues to post a few random shoutouts to Jon over the next couple years.

Pete Wentz has Jon join FOB onstage during the Chicago stop of their 2007 Honda Civic Tour and tosses his bass to him.

Tom forms the band Empires and then many years later Jon opens for them on May 21, 2011 (and also did this shoutout for them). Idk much about stuff that happened after 2009, though, so I’ll stop here.

Jon told Sydney’s MX newspaper in 2008:

"I grew up in Chicago and I was in a band with [TAI’s] guitar player and they went on tour and I just stopped going to college. I didn't really know what I wanted to do, but I did know I didn't want to still be living at my parents' house. I toured with [The Academy Is...] for four months and met these guys and the rest is history."

This post kind of turned into how Tom Conrad & Jon Walker stayed friends through several bands... so there’s that too. I know I skipped tons but hopefully something in this random info dump gives a slightly better idea of how Jon’s connected! and I just typed this all in one go mostly off the top of my head and I’m really only decent with remembering P!ATD stuff, so if there’s something wrong please point it out & thanks :)

Dancing with the Stars Season 29 Week 2: Y’all Already Starting to Piss Me Off

So listen. Tyra is not perfect. Tyra is not making this show bad. Tyra did NOT yell at Derek. Like anyone else, Tyra is finding her footing. Tom, Lisa, Samantha, Brooke and Erin all had to do that. And they were all granted the ability to learn and get used to it (not really Lisa since they dropped her after season 1). And damnit, y’all will give Tyra that same opportunity. Also, let’s talk about this “yelling” situation. I have seen enough comments and I just know people are going to write articles about that bullshit. Stop. What is different between when Tyra told Derek to hurry up and when Tom was telling all them judges to hurry up every week? They used the same exact tone of voice and same volume. So again, what’s the difference. Anyone saying that she yelled, why? Why do you say that? Be honest. What is the difference? I just told you all that it was delivered similarly. So what is it? Is it the recipient? Instead of it being an elderly man, it was a young and attractive white man? Or is it the fact that Tyra is a Black woman and Tom is a white man? Ask yourselves that. I don’t wanna have to get on here every week, mad, and have to address things like this because people are being stupid racist. But I will if I have to. Trust that I will. You don’t have to like her, but be fair. Some of these critiques are not fair at all.

Anyway, I thought the intro was cute. It was a nice way to remind everyone that there was an elimination tonight while being fun and allowing Tyra bring a little more of herself to the table. As for the show, it was very meh. A lot of wtf scores were given out. The elimination was bs in my opinion. And most of the dances were mid. So with that said, let’s just get this ranking started.

1. Kaitlyn and Artem- They got the highest score of the night (a 22) and I think it was well deserved. Last week I talked about how soft and pretty she moves and how it’s something that I don’t like in Latin? Yeah, well this week, it worked perfectly for this foxtrot. It always does. Kaitlyn’s lines were gorgeous and she was incredibly graceful and elegant. There were a couple of iffy moments in there though I wasn’t able to quite catch what happened. The camerawork was kinda sloppy tonight. I think she may have slipped which makes me think that the floor was pretty slick tonight as many people slipped. But yeah, she had a great showing.

2. Nev and Jenna- This dance was the most shocking of the night to me. I’m a Nev believer now. He’s got what it takes to go far. Now his dance was slightly awkward in my opinion. He danced really high tonight. Some of that may come from his shoulders, but some of it felt like he was just lifting his entire body up unnaturally. It was strange. But other than that, he’s actually a lot better than I expected he would be in Latin. As far as the whole Jenna situation goes that was revealed recently, I don’t know y’all. I just can’t get behind them. But they’re good.

3. AJ and Cheryl- Right now, AJ is the best mover of the men. I say that cautiously because there are two more who might be better once they really get settled into the competition (more on them later). I thought this foxtrot was really good. AJ was elegant. And he actually leads Cheryl pretty well. My big issue with this dance is actually kind of petty But it was that I wanted him to close his mouth. It was wide open for most of the dance and it really bothered me lol. I know I know. I thought they did a great job though. I wish they would have been scored properly. He should’ve gotten a 21.

4. Jeannie and Brandon- I waffled back and forth between Justina and Jeannie for this spot. I ended up going with Jeannie though because I though Brandon’s choreography was better than Sasha’s. Jeannie was much improved from last week. She had a lot more hip action and she was more controlled. As Bruno said, she needs some more polish and she still needs to reign in her energy a bit more. But she is definitely one to watch. As far as the score goes, bogus. She should’ve gotten at least two 7s. She didn’t trip and the judges said she improved. So that should’ve translated into scores.

5. Justina and Sasha- I just realized that I don’t really care for Sasha’s foxtrots. This dance was nice and pretty. Justina performed it well. But I was left feeling kinda whatever about it. I’m sure the singers had something to do with that. Sorry to Whitney and Mariah. That vocal was atrocious and I honestly couldn’t even focus on the dance the first time around because they were so bad. Anyway, Justina has issues with her turns, but otherwise, she’s still a contender.

6. Skai and Alan- From the score that these two got, you would have thought that this dance was a complete disaster. But it was far from that. A samba in week 2 rarely goes over well. The rhythm, technique, bounce and hip action needed are all very complicated to put together this early in the competition. It should be done no earlier than week 3. With that said, I think Skai did a pretty okay job. She did slip but it was one moment that she recovered from. I think the floors were very slick last night because quite a few celebs stumbled. Straight 5s were just really low considering the fact that the rest of the dance went fine and many other celebs that had worse dances than her scored similarly or higher.

7. Johnny and Britt- The choreography was very interesting and I have to really commend Britt for what she came up with. It was really dynamic and just very intriguing. Unfortunately, Johnny struggled a bit. He seemed to have issues keeping up and I’m not quite sure what made that happen. He also just seemed a little clumsy throughout the dance. I do think it’s a confidence thing and once he really starts to believe that he is capable of doing this, that he will truly blossom. He is one of the two male celebs that I think has the potential to be a better mover than AJ. 

8. Anne and Keo- I can’t remember if I said this last week, but I think Anne is the actual dark horse. She’s doing alright. She’s going to get better. She has a very endearing personality. And her partnership with Keo is one of the best this season. The judges were right in their assessment of all that energy in Anne’s upper body (specifically her shoulders) and that it needs to be calmed down. Other than that, I’m enjoying these two together and I can’t wait to see what they bring next week.

9. Nelly and Daniella- Nelly is the other male celeb that I think can be a better mover than AJ. The reason that he’s not right now is that he’s just not fully letting go. That’s not saying that he’s not committed to doing the show. He clearly is. I mean his technique and his attention to the smaller details should make that crystal clear. But I just think he doesn’t want to look goofy. Him getting custom made dance shoes that look like Jordans (genius by the way) revealed that. But to be honest, he will never look goofy. Once he loosens up some more and lets go of the image he wants to uphold, I think he will shock a lot of people. Also let me give kudos to Daniella for meeting him where he’s at and working with him so well. She is doing a great job so far.

10. Jesse and Sharna- I did not understand the score this dance got or the praise that was heaped on it at all. I don’t think it was worthy of 7s. I think he should’ve gotten the same score as Monica. He wasn’t smooth and his posture was bad. His technique also wasn’t great. I do see he’s good at leading, but that’s really it. I didn’t see what the judges saw. It was forgettable and not great. It wasn’t bad, it was just very meh.

11.Vernon and Peta- Something about Vernon’s costume felt very off. I don’t want to call it amateurish because the costume department is usually very very good at their jobs (the best along with makeup). But that costume? Yeah well, it happened. As for the dance, I didn’t start out liking it, but as it went on, I enjoyed it more. Vernon settled into it and gave a very respectable performance. Now the issue was that his shaping was off. His butt kept going further and further out. He also dances kind of small and for such a large man, he can’t do that. They’ll be fine for now. I just can’t wait for Vernon to have his breakthrough. He is definitely a diamond in the rough.

12. Chrishell and Gleb- I did not like this dance at all and I have to blame that all on Gleb. What Chrishell did was fine for the most part. But Gleb gave her very little content and the choreo was just strange. It honestly just didn’t make sense. Idk. I feel bad because Chrishell had some goregeous lines and some nice movement in that dance (even if she lacked hip action). I can see how much potential she has. But I just don’t think Gleb is going to be able to pull it out of her.

13. Monica and Val- These two are a non-event for me. Monica isn’t doing anything wrong. I like her fine. I actually think she’s a cool person and would be willing to sit down and hang out with her. But this dance was strange. The set was odd. I don’t understand what that was about. Their costumes made no sense either. The choreo felt aimless. And then Val added in that unnecessary lift. Listen, I get taking risks to try and a big splash. Sometimes it is necessary to sacrifice the scores in order to separate yourself from the rest of the pack. But that risk has to actually mean something. What was the purpose of that lift that he added? It did nothing for the dance. It was just there. And Monica is not someone who can sacrifice points at this time. I do think that she’s in the danger zone and if they don’t really make a splash, they could be eliminated soon.

14. Charles and Emma- I liked Charles’s dance this week. He improved a lot and I don’t think he should’ve been eliminated. Based on what we saw, I felt as though he had more in him than Carole has in her. It just is what it is. It frustrated me that for the second season in a row the first person eliminated was actually better and showed more promise than the person that was saved.

15. Carole and Pasha- Was this an improvement? Yes. Did Carole do all the steps mostly right? Yes. Did I still hate this dance? Also, yes. This was strange. I hated it. The cat theme went way over the top and it went from cute to just flat out creepy. I hated it. Now I’m not sure what voting is like this season, but I feel that Carole may see a slight vote increase since she ended up in the bottom 2 last night and also was emotional in her package and during her interview with Tyra and all that. This wouldn’t be an issue normally because I would still fully expect for her to be in the bottom again next week. But I am not sure how Chrishell, Monica, Jesse and a couple others are doing with fans. So she could be spared next week and not even end up in the bottom 2.

So that’s that. Hope you all liked last night’s show. Again, it was just alright for me. Let me know your thoughts and I will talk to you all soon.

[haveihitanerve]

Yet another one- You guys know the drill :) :

Sams appreciative smile of Tom’s introduction of the idea of what they're doing, amazing supportive friendship

“One man, six strangers” This audience member is fun!!! “I've seen that video1” Tom help-

“Theres only thhhreee people up here” yes good math Tom, very nice

“Bilbo Baggins finds a diamond.” “Strong rip-off vibes there” tom i cant

“The confused racist panda” the confused raci- wh-whatttt

“You lost us right in the middle there.” thank you for showing it with your hands Tom, i really needed that actually

“You get three very white guys on stage and go “lets talk racism” it doesn't end well.” With you three i think it might, but fair point- also i thought he was just grabbing a drink- wheres luke??? 😭

“Is that from Twin Towers guy?” ok i didn't see the first half of the show- but thats an insane way to be categorized/known, also AJ fucking losing it is always a gem, love that

Even sam had to hang his head for that one lmao what did you do twin towers guy???

“The excited chinchilla?” Glances around at Sam and AJ. “What do you guys like so far?” Genuinely my heart omg-

“I like the excited chinchilla- what does that, what does that look like exactl-” AJ you better be asking about what the scene could possibly look like and not what the animal-

“What does a chinchilla look like?” AJ please 😭

Also just to mention- when he started speaking Tom pointed to him and idk but it made something inside me smile so… mentioning it…. moving on

“Its like a cute little-” forms a ball with his hands. I gotta say Tom, thats pretty accurate. “Gerbil-y sort of thing.” Sam finishing his sentence i cant 😭

Also if Tom keeps pointing to them like that i might actually lose it-

“What he said.” I love them so much and i don't even know why this sentence specifically made me scream that but um… yeah

Sam and AJ just standing up, trying to figure out wtf they're gonna do…hoping inspiration will come from being elevated or smth ig

“You know some people get a dog i guess.” AJ i fucking love you-

His shrug also- cutest thing i've ever seen in my life

Ok idc where this relationship goes- but Sam and AJ being in love is rarely a thing and i didn't know how much i needed it until now but its adorable- Sam has the sweetest smile and AJ genuinely looks afraid of this nonexistent chinchilla but calmer the closer Sam gets and ahhhhh

Also sam talking about children😭i know they’re fake but planning a future together- my heart-😭

- i genuinely did not see Tom coming- XD losing my lung rn laughing what- and he does the raspy worker dude voice so well- help

“Thanks dad.” AJ marry me rn. 

HE EVEN CAUGHT SAM OFF GUARD!!!!!

“...chinchilla.” The way he said that- wh-sir why??? 

Sam and AJ are both also caught off guard- oh this is gonna be a fun one i can tell- literally both breaking together at Tom’s strange growl 

“Was this your idea?” Perfect gruff disapproving dad Tom, 10/10

“One moment sweetheart.” yes yes!!! Protect your daughter, take aside the boyfriend/husband???-it hasn't been established yet- and then… idk what actually but yes i love how gentle he was to AJ lol

“Listen i like you, yeah?” The audience understands lmaooo!! Sam thats never a good sign, run

Tom breaking- his little peek at AJ and then having to cover his mouth to hide his smile Ahhhhhhh so cute!!!

OH!!! He looked over because AJ was laughing at him- got it!!!

*AJ playing with the chinchilla* thank you captions- but im pretty sure that was just him almost dropping it-

“I think you've made a mistake here-” AJ wheezing

“Don't look at her-” “i love her!” THATS LOW SAM!!! THATS LOW!!! HE WASN'T TALKING ABOUT HIS DAUGHTER- HE WAS TALKING ABOUT THE CHINCHILLA!!!! WOWWWWWW

Ok im better now (fuckin hilarious also sam, stellar)

“Shh-shhhut up.” we always love the drawn out shhhhut up

“I don't mean my daughter,” thank you for clarifying tom

AJ is running out of things to do lmaooo- holding it up to the light, turning in a circle, ah zabenya-ing it

“Just keep your door locked at night yeah?” TOM WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN??? HELLO????? I was not informed this was a horror story-

Sam is equally as confused as to where hes taking this- oh hes miming now

“At the bottom of your door you've got a- one of the draft excluders” tom what does that mean 😭

“I hope im overthinking this” you are, you so are, but i cant wait to see where this goes- oh my gods

“Keep your eyes open. Especially when you’re sleeping..” okkkk thats creepy and totally normal and what a father in law totally says-

AJ is tired of being a side character- lovely “boy chat??” idk what his hand movements are but im loving it

Sam side eyeing Tom is amazing

“You remember-” that lunge forward is worse than anything a chinchilla can do tom what- 

Also Sam and AJ breaking, they did not see that coming’

“They can feel you breathing… they can always feel you breathing.” Ok thats ominous but also why do i feel like thats a random fact that Tom learned about chinchillas that hes adding into the story??? Idk seems like a thing they can do, and a thing hed know, and a thing hed do

Sam perplexed beyond reason how they're gonna make this a functioning scene

“Maybe in the war.” *shrugs casually* AJ!!! SIR what do you mmmmmeannnnnnnn  in the war????? What

Sam also almost breaking and AJ casually laughing because whatttt did he just say how are they furthering this plot

also off topic- the little tongue in the cheek movement is great, lovely, top notch, idk love it

AJ biting his lip and needing to look away so that he doesn't completely break is my everything

“You're an accountant, I’m a lawyer.” thank you for giving us backstory Sam, greatly needed

“Falling in love with you was the best thing I ever did.” ……. SIR. How am I ever gonna find someone if you’re pulling these lines on your fucking friend while doing an improv show- 😭 the standards are too high already-

The kiss 😭

Sam’s squint at Tom like “what the fuck are you- what are we doing here? Do i move in- was that stagecraft?- what??” 

His shrug of “oh well fuck it I guess.” and moving a chair into scene while still shrugging at Tom bc he has no idea what to do

Sam repeating back all of Tom’s words in a slightly different font because he wants Tom to have control of the scene- and he has no ideas- 

AJ looking between them and doing three pretty blinks as he pieces together the story

“Gavin…” *nervous chuckle* “obviously theres a difference.” please tell him Tom, we’re all dying to know, him especially

“Ckkk” what does that mean Tom 😭i thought it meant castration at first but now???

AJ stepping forward- wanting to join the scene but he’s still not entirely sure wtf is going on and three confused scene partners is a recipe for disaster- and oop Tom has an analogy maybe wait-

“Let me finish the sentence.” the pose Sam does- help-

AJ’s slow smile as Tom continues the bad analogy

“Of course.” Sam you’ve never “ckk”ed anything what do you mean of course

“What you've done-” AJ’s little lean back and victorian hand over mouth chuckle is my favorite thing in the world he does it so much and it kills me every time its so cute

Sam loosing it- and Tom breaking on stage!!! Thats something you don't see often!!

“Venomous” VENOMOUS???? THATS THE METAPHOR??? IT ISN'T ONE????

Oh nevermind its still a metaphor

The brainstem????? Thats what “ckkk” is?????

Im so confused help 😭

Tom’s spin in the chair is hilarious- peak comedy truly

“Can you imagine an unsnipped chinchilla???” I can now??? ALso both Sam and Tom breaking again, beautiful

“Have you ever seen a Rhino with a gun?” wtf??? “No??!?!” “thats the only thing i can compare this to Gavin!” I love how he keeps casually dropping in Gavin while Gavin has yet to name him

“How'd you just come in through the back of the store?” i see stagecraft is at play

AJ also knew it was coming but laughed anyway-peak

“Thats the least of your worries right now.” yes Aj, flip it on him!!! King

“Just on-just one!” Tom sounds genuinely afraid this is golden

Oh ma gods- the way AJ’s scream cuts off perfectly and he and Tom just relax the second Sam cuts off the scene is perfect

“Captain.” wait a damn minute- Captain??? Captain of the Police Force??? Not KING???? anyway-

“Five thousand people died.” damn. damn

also Tom laughing in the background, legs crossed and fingers steepled against his chin in proper Tom pose- i adore

“Theresa may.” Audience member i love you

And the way the roll with it too- gads i love them

Sam finally breaking when AJ actually “calls” Theresa May

Tom resigning himself to play Theresa

None of them knew where they were going except Tom but they all wanted to create a scene- loving the chaos- lukeeeee 

That door creaking sound was a masterpiece and idk about you but Sam is a positively fucking terrifying chinchilla omg-

“Gary…” that audience member is losing her mind at his name being gary and i adore that for her

“Do you remember me from ZE WARRRRR!!!” the chinchilla asked calmly

“NO ONE CAN STOP ZE NAZI CHINCHILLAS!!!” Ok sam, praise, i love you, but why does it always come back to Germans??? There are more than just the one-two wars 😭like he could've created a fake one??? Nevermind its not important its the funniest one and maybe he’s just holding space for luke

AJ laughing as he dies via chinchilla is crazy

Killing him again is low but necessary lol

AJ losing it even more is a joy XD

I gotta say, very impressed with Sam’s pronunciation and then gibberish of german

AJ trying to clear the stage but Tom just stays fucking spread on the floor lmaooo

“Hold please.” AJ what???? Hes enjoying himself and being chaotic as always but what??? 😭XD

“I can hear you doing motions but this is a phone call so…” yes AJ!!!! Call him out!!!! XD glorious!!!

“With my man.” AJ i think ur in the clear to give him a name- i don't think its been done- but playing it safe, i see- even though its never stopped you before, giving someone two names but like wtv thats not my business-

Sam just messing with Tom’s arm/hands (making him slap himself) even though AJ specifically pointed out it was unnecessary but we love an annoying king- and dragging him around by his hair lol

Paella??? Is this a call back??? Its only the short story, but im assuming AJ’s being a lil bitch and making Tom say paella again- also Sam’s “squid” motion for Tom was brilliant XD

Sam dropping his head on Tom’s shoulder to laugh- my heart

“Im glad to hear I sound normal to you.” 

“Hang up ze fucking phone!!!” 

“Everything okay?” the switch from chinchilla to Sam gave me whiplash hang on-

“Did he?” “yeah yeah yeah.” “...did he?” Genuinely curious- did he? “Well he said the word.” Aj i love you

“Where its gone.” Im sorry but they said it in sync and together in harmony and like obvi but it just gives me joy anyway-

“Fuck we should probably look for it shouldn't we?” yeah just maybe AJ. 

“Ill go down to the basement..” they both knows what gonna happen. “And see if its there.” both break. “What could go wrong?” thanks for saying the classic foreboding everything-will-now-go-wrong phrase sam

AJ’s shrug is such a mood i love him

“Ill see you upstairs.” “maybe.” if AJ doesn't die now I want a refund-

Tom: ominous basement noises

“Thats the music to the scene-” yes AJ, its like in movies- you don't address it!

“I already turned zis light on.” sorry sam but i thought the “chch” was the sound of a gun cocking-

“Hello cecily.” well thats terrifying-

“Franz Haberburg.” we get a Tom smile!!!! And AJ breaks as well, so cute

“The door is pretty closed and soundproof.” Sam what??? Poor Aj is gonna die XD- also AJ’s little laugh is my life

“HUSBAND! HU-HUSBAND!!!” “you don't seem to know his name.” XD Give the poor man a break Sam, hes been bullied for not remembering names enough times-

“I call him husband thats what we do its a cute thing.” AJ- still don't think he’s been named yet so you're free but like i respect it

“Who are you- well i know who you are- but what are you doing in my basement!” Now hes asking the real questions

“Until 1939.” the way Tom covers his mouth with his fingertips every time he laughs off stage gives me life- only the fingertips too- not the whole hand its- anyway

“What do you- what do you mean?” Aj breaking and Tom still laughing- asking the real questions now

“But it just wasn't racist enough-” Tom, previously: three white guys on stage, lets talk about racism, yeah, good idea

Why are they making the chinchilla- you know what i don't want to know the thought process- also Tom’s delight as hes watching is everything so its fine

“Your father is dead.” The audience who already knew this: *dramatic gasps* YES!!!! Finally a good audience who does all the proper dramatic gasps!!!

Dead tom enters the scene again!

“Have you ever zeen ze film terminator?” AJ’s back caving with a laugh, Tom twitching with laughter and Sam breaking mid sentence- i love these stupid goobers

Also the way AJ is gently cupping Tom’s neck-

“But no every single *grows quieter* chinchilla is a *laughs* nazi” AJ breaking- i love this skit omg XD-

“I-it-s im just stalling” good work AJ- very smooth, the audience has no idea. 

Aj actually stumbling when Sam ducked- and the sound his arm made is crazy(also the way he checked to make sure he wouldn't actually hit Sam- my heart)

“Sooounnnd.” that was angelic Sam wow

AJ’s slow NPC turn-

“Maybe move on from this bit-” AJ and Sam both breaking- probably wise, honestly

*uncomfortable AJ*

“HUSBAND! HUSBAND!!! THE CHINCHILLAS A FUCKING NAZI!” Sam’s completely break- he did not expect that right out of the gate- (nor did he probably expect AJ to live through the scene but whatever-)

Also tom casually in the corner now because he cant really move theyre in the way so just watching and grinning-

“HE *YOU* VERY VERY NEARLY GAVE ME THE HITLER SPEECH! WE WERE THIS🤏CLOSE!” Sam loosing it- oh and Tom escapes to the back

“AND I ABANDONED THE SCENE!” Aj is just publicly shaming Sam now-

“I GOT OUTTA THERE! BECAUSE I HAD TO!” explaining how tf he made it out of the basement-

“I HAD TO!” wayyyy too close to Sam’s face

“Have some beans” Aj: *rightfully confused because wtf?*

AJ genuinely loosing his shit and doing some strange drinking of beans and stagecraft

TOM AS THERESA!!! SHES HERE TO SAVE THE DAY!!!!

Sam also forgot about that character- or didn't expect Tom to dedicate to actually playing her- XD

AJ CASUALLY HAS A SHOTGUN WHAT-

“Wait-wh- one! Where did you get a gun-” wise questions Sam

“Two- this is the former prime minister. She tried to get the good Brexit deal- why are you pointing a gun at her?” Lmaooo Sam

Tom: *kills himself* Sam: *takes his time to get behind him to pretend like it was him*

“Theresa May is the best Nazi killer in ze world.” all three of them laughing before recovering really fast

XDXDXDXDXD sam having to alternate between his two [personalities- a comforting husband and a nazi chinchilla- what even is their life-

AJ- its a shotgun my love, not a machine gun. Sam- thank you for just staring at him for a few minutes, contemplating whether or not to point it out before ducking under all the bullets- even tho he’s been shooting for a while longer than you ducked, nicely done

“The other one…” AJ has no idea…

“And scene- thank you.” the pure relief-

AJ casually asking Sam if thats his drink before getting his actual drink- they’re so cute

Anyway that concludes todays one- thank you!!!

Also- this show had the best Sam faces- amazed that his besties can be just as unhinged as him sometimes- hes great at the random comments that completely transform a scene (cough cough, disciplinary meeting comments, cough cough) and then does an awesome job at pretending to be shocked/amazed/horrified when the others do the same- its hilarious- anyway thanks for reading!

@dawn-speckled @snek-of-eden hope you guys enjoy!
