christine as your gf in a highschool!au
Tumblr media
āœ§ warnings: homophobia
āœ§ authors note: jas ml ty for requesting this even if u donā€™t know shit abt phantom of the opera <3 yk i love christine ! also reader is fem cause i said so
āœ§ m.list ā€” nav.
Tumblr media
writing this cause i finished my exam early šŸ˜ˆšŸ˜ˆ
her favourite classes are the ones she has with u
even if she absolutely sucks at it itļæ½ļæ½ļæ½s okay cause she gets to spend it with her favourite girl!!!
or if its a class she likes but ur bad at sheā€™ll tutor u in a heartbeat
typa gf to give u a kiss everytime u get something right
ngl sheā€™d prob be in theatre šŸ˜­ so sheā€™d tell u every little detail abt her auditions and what roles she wants
she once got cast as brenda in hairspray when she wanted penny and started genuinely tweaking
sheā€™d get so so happy if u came to her shows
sheā€™s broken character before just to wave at u !!
yes she got in trouble no she didnā€™t care
also ur probably also friends with raoul cause theyre still friends cause i said so
heā€™s not a theatre kid but he IS a band kid
he plays trombone btw šŸ’€
christine would prob want u to try out clubs so obv those are ur go toā€™s cause ur friends are there
she understands if u donā€™t wanna join a club but she does encourage it
also!! u barely see her during exams cause girlie gets stressed (same)
like to the point she has to sleep during lunch because she barely slept the night before
so like u have to force her to fix her sleep schedule after exams are over
raoul gets so annoyed if yā€™all start flirting during lunch šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ heā€™s almost moved tables before
ā€œew stop nobody wants to see thatā€
and then heā€™s ur first defender if someone starts being a bitch
the amount of people heā€™s gotten suspended, fired, expelled for harassing u guys is actually crazy
no shit gets past him the second he hears abt it theyā€™re cooked
we love a supportive third wheel
also!! sheā€™d get her license as soon as she can so she can pick u up and drive u home <33 literally no other reason
sheā€™d wanna work at the same place as u when yā€™all get jobs (prob at the food court in the mall) but she refuses certain places
like sheā€™ll work at subway but refuses taco bell?? (raoul would work at taco bell)
and he gets even more annoyed when she comes and visits u at ur job (taco bell šŸ’€)
average white rich man when he has to work at taco bell and his two main friends are dating so heā€™s a constant third wheel
also every teacher loves christine and will let yā€™all sit in their classrooms for lunch it u donā€™t wanna be in the cafeteria
sheā€™d love to buy u things for lunch and if she doesnā€™t have money that day she just makes u some herself
and let me say her cooking just might be the most amazing thing u ever taste
if u let her know how much u love her cooking she just starts bringing it for u everyday
she gets so offended if u donā€™t come to school when ur not sick and just cause u felt like it
if ur sick sheā€™ll come by and take care of u (cause u only eat her soup) but not coming just cause u didnā€™t wanna??? šŸ˜’
she wonā€™t rlly do much abt it sheā€™ll just be petty for the rest of the day and then forget abt it the next day
also she loves walking u to ur classes! even if itā€™s across the school from hers
itā€™s okay she can run and sheā€™s pretty decent about it cause she doesnā€™t rlly mind gym
sheā€™ll walk to u class even if a teacher she dislikes is there
and coming to her house after school is the best
she has an insane cd/vinyl collection with every genre ever so she lets u pick some and plays them in the background
makes u play mario kart because sheā€™s weirdly good at it
itā€™s like a superpower for her
she could start in the back and sheā€™d still be in 1st place throughout the whole game
usually a toadette main but will match with u sometimes (yoshi and birdo, peach and daisy/rosalina, etc)

THOUGHTS ON SEEING FIGARO LAST NIGHT BELOW THE CUT goooood morning everybodyyyy
- first off this is i thiiink the first time iā€™ve ever seen the director get applauded onstage also? but thatā€™s because the director is nathan gunn probably
- really it seems he does everything here. realized somewhere in act 4 that i could call this place the Gunnderdome
- ok that aside. actual opera.
- i really like the character dynamics here.... figaro and susanna were good and in love, figaro was sort of an older brother figure for cherubino (AND NOT MEAN THANK GOD but definitely like... wary in the way one is around 13 y/os LOL), almavivas were having proper divorce moments, hell marcellina and bartolo Definitely felt like exes
- also one thing i thought interesting was that all the characters spoke italian.... except for figaro and susanna, who were bilingual and spoke both english and italian. it really worked honestly i like the idea but it was a little understated at times. something something figaro and susanna only honestly communicate with one another...
- marcellina this time around was played by a male mezzo which i thought was interesting! character herself was still female. i think this production definitely played her rather too buffoony for my taste (definitely like. a crash course in stage chewing LOL) but marcy was also the audience favorite from the vibes i got there so... morally correct in that case
- they put marcellina up in front of the curtain any time they were changing sets also so more blorba from the shows is always a W
- also she and bartolo were dressed like house of gucci for some reason
- actually the costumes in this were just crazy like. the time period was ā€œwheneverā€ so you had figaro and susanna in like, vaguely 17th century wear, but then marcellina and bartolo were done up in house of gucci ass clothing and cherubino was done up like timothee chalamet and count almaviva. god (not negative or positive but just sort of impressed by the sheer... Taste). iā€™ll get to the count in a separate paragraph
- TIMOTHEE CHALAMET CHERUBINO WAS SO FUNNY bc i read the program compare cherubino to timothee chalamet and i was like getting ready for it to take the character in a weird direction but no. cherubino was as ā€œthis is clearly a 13 year oldā€œ as ever. but they just happened to be wearing timothee chalamet clothing. absolutely fucking hilarious direction
- they did the chair double take well also that means i can finally talk about the count bc like... man. in this iteration he was so Character
- like... first off. the outfits. mf literally comes in in like... leather skintight trousers (with a. well. purposely obvious. i mean. itā€™s skintight. use your imagination) and a leopard fur coat and then in act 2 heā€™s also wearing a cableknit sweater?? and then in act 3 heā€™s got a full military general outfit? and then in act 4 heā€™s running around in a white bedsheet looking thing and khakis. like... iā€™m genuinely amazed not even negatively this is SUCH a choice
- anyway they made him this spindly little thing that you like... almost felt bad for bc he just looked so pathetic. he looked kinda anemic (not the singer, the character) and just had like a naturally sad face AND HE WAS A TWINK. also he was super light for a baritone, like the sort of ā€œtenor with some low notesā€ range iā€™d assign don giovanni. ironically it reminded me less of count almaviva and moreso count di luna from trovatore; idk if a lighter voice would work for a verdi baritone but i would still love to see this guy take on di luna regardless bc this was 100% the sort of way i imagine di luna
- basilio was a beatnik. and heterosexual i think. thaaaaaank god. he was very loud i noticed compared to the other singers but he was good so itā€™s fine
- love non piu andrais where figaro obviously cares abt cherubino
- act twoooo the countess was sung really well but the characterization didnā€™t like... stick out to me. i think they made her like too nice to susanna and figaro when i see her as far more reserved
- absolutely loved the way they dress up cherubino here
- when cherubino jumped out the window susanna didnā€™t run to check on them like she usually does she just went ā€œwell. guess theyā€™re dead nowā€ WHICH WAS SO FUNNY????
- also the count comes in to open the closet with a crowbar AND A GUN? the countess then takes the gun and hands it to whoever is in the closet (which she still thought was cherubino), which, HELP WAS THE COUNTESS GENUINELY READY FOR A 13 YEAR OLD TO SHOOT HER HUSBAND???? I LOVE DIVORCE <333333
- then susanna came out and started threatening the count with the gun HELP HELP HELP. (susanna voice) I Want That Twink Obliterated
- i wish they fought more during the final septet they were all just kinda standing there. count was pretty hammy tho
- act 3 opens and the count is just lying on the floor in a heap. genuinely obsessed
- they played the judge as just being, like, absolutely Tired and Done (and not the like... simpering corrupt snake i see from other prods) which was fun
- i wish they made figaro finding his parents warmer and more genuine than they did here but thatā€™s bc iā€™m a ā€œmarcellina is a serious character actuallyā€ truther. (she is rather silly. but arenā€™t we all?) ive read the plays and iā€˜m writing a novella about her and i know literally everything. they made it more of a comic scene than like... one of the most genuine (if absolutely absurd in theory) moments in the opera
- side note if you can see marriage of figaro with a friend that doesnā€™t know the plot twist of marcellina being figaroā€™s mom, and keep it hidden from them, absolutely do this. the SHOCK. the REVELATION. watching this unfold with my friend was genuinely one of the best moments iā€™ve had in a theatre LMFAOOO
- susanna did not actually slap figaro it was a stage slap :(
- i noticed they trimmed down a lot of stuff in act 3, most notably removing any reference to marcellina and bartolo also getting married (altho it did seem to be implied in the staging) but there were other things. i think part of this was bc there wasnā€™t an onstage chorus or supers. no music was cut tho it was all recitative etc. mostly it was fine but it did make the latter half of act 3 especially feel clunky
- why was the judge at the wedding
- they made act 4ā€™s set look like... a bit toooo vague and a bit too bright to be understood as an outdoor night garden i think but the other sets were really good
- marcellina fussing over figaro between acts was kinda cute i think (although he didnā€™t seem to be fully enjoying it LOL)
- they did the bit where cherubino tries to kiss the count and then the count punches figaro. W
- they made figaro and susanna really cute here when they made up i thought. more stage slaps tho
- however i will say. the position figaro and susanna assumed when she was slapping him here. that entire part really. well. it certainly reaffirms my suspicion that susanna tops.
- THEY HAD A TURNTABLE BUT THEY ONLY USED IT TWICE, once when barbarina was searching for the pin and once at the very end. hilarious honestly. very loud turntable however
- on the note of barb though. definitely NOT a fan of how the program described barbarina tho if you insinuate she and lolita are similar you should be in like. bad take jail or smth
- in my mind she and the count were never actually a thing she just sorta just lies and bc the count sees so many women he genuinely canā€™t tell who she even is Lmfao
- ok anywayyyy back to the end THE COUNT AND FIGARO WERE HUGGING OUT THEIR DIFFERENCES LIKE HELLO??? everyone cornering the count was funny af i think
- everyone was just kinda running tf around. noticed that they seemed to playing it more as the count genuinely changing and not the sorta melancholy implication you get from more prods that heā€™ll just be quieter about it
- had an absolutely fantastic time with my friend ā™„ļø so glad she got me tickets here. still obsessed with whatever the count was doing. he might have been wearing eyeliner even, i dunno i couldnt see that clearly. what a show. good times/10

heehee intro as a whole ā€¦. with the rock like yasss slay
guys the jew representation in this show is off the charts. sarah michelle gellar and the other main character is willow rosenberg? no one ever talks about this. this is a jew show irl
alyson is so cute itā€™s so funny that they try to make her ā€œnerdyā€ with a shitty outfit like. what???? sheā€™s still like. so pretty.
meet cute mome with buffy and xander .. classic
also buffyā€™s first day outfit is soooo cute n so is she. love
xanderā€™s sheer shirt is like boygirl chic supreme. loveee again
GERM WAREFARE????????? WHAT
free my bitch willow she aint done nothing but be sustainable
love him already (giles) why is he like this
giles is boygirl supreme actually iā€™ve decided or maybe heā€™s just british
GIRL REALLY THOUGHT HE COULD PLACE DOWN A BOOK OF VAMPYR AND NOT FREAK OUT????
sometimes joss whedon writes shit and like. u just have to sit and think
did people talk like this in the 90s
i love how buffy is like fuck this shit like yes girl fuck this shit
no bc the way that it must be so hard to hold this secret and have to watch her destroy not just her life but her momā€™s and everyone around herā€™sā€¦
yasss girl live in ur dark cave, chant ominously and give us nothing šŸ˜šŸ˜
ā€œhi! im an enormous slut!ā€ pissing myself
if this was me and i was 16 i would not be allowed to go to a club. like? girl do u care abt ur daughter at all?
this dude in his velvet coatā€¦.. and being destroyed by buffy instantlyā€¦ yeahā€¦ yeahā€¦
if this is the place to be in sunnydale i think iā€™d just never leave my house if i lived there
WHEN DOES WILLOW BECOME A LESBIAN šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ i know she does i just canā€™t wait
ok but jesse literally canā€™t catch a hint like leave her alone
FREE MY BITCH WILLOW make her a lesbian now so she doesnā€™t fall for this vampire dick
ā€œwhat is your childhood traumaā€ the way i have fully said these words before but in an entirely different context
the vampire makeup is sooo funny tho i think we need to bring back practical effects exclusively so we can have gold like this again
i know by young and fresh they mean virgins and i just donā€™t know why they donā€™t just say it
kinda love how they chose this dark ass place to hide the shitty fight choreography and makeup
thinking about how joss whedon went on to write parts of the MCU and u can literally hear the quips starting now LMFAO
love the overarching plot explanation nowā€¦ we need that structure yasss
1.2
wow literally forgot this was a 2 parter but also they put their whole pussy into this shit
the amount of christian mythology here does give it negative points for being a jew show :/
dirty cave back šŸ˜šŸ˜ we love to see itā€¦ candle lit, large throne, perfect for all
ALSO PISSING MYSELF WITH HOW THE VAMPIRES ARE LISPING WITH THE FUCKING TEETH IN THEIR MOUTHS šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ LITERALLY LMFAO
this show is soooo acab like yes the police cant do anything and only come with guns šŸ˜
this show is actually so feminist because the 4 main protagonists are all women
fuck this guy (the principal)
i love her (buffy)
the cross is so ugly but i know they had to make it this big to show up on the shitty fucking quality of the tvs in the 90s
velvet coat guyā€™s name is angel and itā€™s like they want u to trip over the plot
sooo true xander i would also skip chem class
when sheā€™s experienced and is willing to cut someoneā€™s head off with an x-acto knife
fuck that guy (cordelia)
i love her (willow)
girlies RUNā€¦.
NOT THE LISPS AGAIN šŸ˜­šŸ˜­
jesse is infinitely more interesting as a vampire and im happy they freed him from being boring
giles in rolled sleeves is strangely attractive to me. actually i think i just think giles is weirdly hot in general. maybe it is because he is british.
phantom of the opera ass score like DUNDUN DUN DUN
who wrote that essay about the inherent sexuality of vampires. yeahā€¦ yeahā€¦
ā€œthe thtarths themthelveths will hide!ā€ please
i do feel so bad for buffy tho like fr society if she just could be normal
crying over the heads of garlic just there in her supply box. like how would be use those to stop them šŸ˜­šŸ˜­
ok but like. is them going to a club and drinking the drinks there implying that they are always drunk at the bronze at 16 year olds??? itā€™s so weird
cordelia needs to listen to goodbye earl by the chicks and i think that would fix her
90s censorship laws be like. no blood allowed! but yes to 16 year olds at clubs!
ok maybe i do rly like this show like a lot
buffy should be included in discussions of feminism fr like she walked so yā€™all could run
giles immediately getting taken down by a vampire is truly the most camp and hilarious thing he could do
the master lying and screaming on the floor no is so me core!
angel shut the fuck up have faith
u averted the apocalypse for now
i love how buffy has friends like :ā€™) yay sheā€™s not alone anymore

My Six The Musical Review
Once again nobody caresā€” BUUUT I saw SixChicago yesterday with Adrianna Hicks as Aragon, Andrea Macasaet as Bolyen, Abby Mueller as Seymour, Brittney Mack as Cleves, Ā Anna Uzele as Parr. Here are somethings I noticed (essentially this is a rundown of everything you wouldnā€™t get just from listening to the album lol) ((Also im so tired and its 12.28 am and im sorry for any mistakes))
ā¤ļøšŸ’ššŸ’›šŸ’—šŸ–¤šŸ’™
šŸ‘‘ So before the show, they were playing a ton of pop music, but it was on an instrument that kinda sounded like a lute or harpsichord. šŸ‘‘ When the Queens walked out from behind the curtain in a single file line to take their place on stage, the crowd went crazy. They all came out through a tiny crack in the curtain,, but when they belt ā€œLIIIIVEā€ the curtain falls to the floor as is dragged off stage. šŸ‘‘During the dance breaks in Ex-Wives, they go from dancing hip hop, to dancing with each other in a style they wouldā€™ve done back then to the beat. It was cute. šŸ‘‘It was so weird hearing their accents! Iā€™m always expecting ā€œdivoocedā€ but it felt like they were almost emphasizing the r ā€œ divoRRcedā€ šŸ‘‘Before Catherine of Aragon starts singing in Ex-Wives she says ā€œRemember us from PBS??ā€ šŸ‘‘When Jane Seymour sings her bit in the song she moves Stage Left and when the Queens all say ā€œHey!ā€ She looks surprised and shrugs, continuing to sing šŸ‘‘Anna really played up the ā€œJAā€™sā€ during her bit and IT WAS SO CUTE (you will find I am partial to clever, bc my gay ass is in love with her.) šŸ‘‘There is so much dialogue!! After they say ā€œChicago!! Howā€™re you doing tonight!!ā€ They say we are ā€œSIIIIXā€ in their harmonies and ā€œWelcome to our divorced, beheaded, LIVE TOURā€ šŸ‘‘Aragon says ā€œWE HAVE SO MUCH IN STORE FOR YOU TONIGHTā€” WE HAVE THE RIFFS TO RUFFLE YOUR RUFFSā€ before she does a really sick riff šŸ‘‘A few of the other queens add on to that,, I forgot what they said but then Ā Howard says ā€œAND A WHOLE LOT OF HISTORYā€ and Parr cuts her off and says ā€œOR AS WE SAY A WHOLE LOT OF HERSTORYā€ šŸ‘‘then they introduce their band (who are on the stage with then) as their ladies in waiting and I was soft šŸ‘‘ So then they go on to explain the deal with the show; they are all competing against each other for the crown of the ā€œultimateā€ queen based on who had to put up with the most shit from Henry šŸ‘‘ When theyā€™re going down the line to explain why they say šŸ’›Who lasted longest was the strongest šŸ’šThe biggest sinner is obvs the winner šŸ–¤ I have no idea what Seymour said I donā€™t remember DX ā¤ļøWho was most chased is first place šŸ’—The most glorious will be victorious šŸ’™The winning contestant was the most protestant (but she says it so it rhymes with contestant and then all the queens look at her like ??? And she sighs and says ā€˜protestantā€™ with its correct pronunciation šŸ‘‘Aragon says ā€œHow in the purgatory are they gonna choose a leading lady??ā€ šŸ‘‘ā€The queen to take the crown will be the one who had the biggest, the firmest, the fullestā€¦. LOAD OF BS TO DEAL WITH FROM THE MAN WHO PUT A RING ON IT šŸ‘‘There is a reprise of Ex-wives but this time they change the lyrics to ā€œwelcome to the show to the coronationā€ šŸ‘‘šŸ’›lol Aragon cut the reprise off and was like ā€œIt doesnā€™t matter, because Iā€™m the winnerā€ and then she asked the drummer for a beat šŸ‘‘šŸ’›So with the beat, Aragon begins to tell her story, and the bass is strumming the baseline for no way šŸ‘‘šŸ’›ā€Okay, Iā€™m thinking itsā€¦ a bit weird they want me to marry myā€¦ dead husbands brotherā€ā€¦ šŸ‘‘šŸ’›So then she continues recounting the story and she says ā€œI saw lipstick on his collar and Iā€™m likeā€¦ okAYā€¦ so now he wants to annul our marriage and moves this sidekick into mY palace and wants me in a CONVENTā€ and sheā€™s on a RANT so she pauses and breathes really heavily before smiling really widely and sighing ā€œNowā€¦ I donā€™t think I look that good in a wimple so I said. No. Way.ā€ Ā And the song starts immediately after that šŸ‘‘šŸ’›Idk what else to say except that Aragon was a total badass and Adrianna Hicks Ā was a fucking QUEEN šŸ‘‘šŸ’›When she asks him to name when sheā€™s ever caused him pain, sheā€™s all the way upstage on the same platform/semi circle that the band is on, and sheā€™s on her knees kinda begging kinda. She pauses for a LONG time and waits for an answer and her face is smug when sheā€™s like ā€œno?ā€ šŸ‘‘šŸ’›She said ā€œI had the most to deal with AND I hit that high c so that crown is mine,ā€ šŸ‘‘The other Queens stop her and are like theres another really REALLY IMPORTANT oneā€¦ the one that overlapped with you who is she?? The famous one that people actually care about!ā€ Then they all start chanting ā€œThe one youā€™ve been waiting forā€ and the lighting turns green,, while theyā€™re chanting, Anne Boleyn looks really confused and shrugs and walks to the back of the stage and picks up her phone šŸ‘‘šŸ’šThe Queens eventually say ā€œThe temptresssssssā€ and they hold it out like a snake ā€œANNE BOLYENā€ and they sing this very choir like šŸ‘‘šŸ’šThey all turn to her and Anne is just sitting there cackling at whatever is on her phone and sheā€™s like ā€œ Whoops sorry,,ā€ and Donā€™t loose your head starts šŸ‘‘šŸ’šAndrea Macasaet has SUCH a high pitched voice she was absolutely ADORABLE šŸ‘‘šŸ’šWhen she said ā€œget aheadā€ she smirked and everyone laughed šŸ‘‘šŸ’šInstead of her voice going down on ā€œPret a Manger,ā€ it got even higher almost In a mocking French accent. šŸ‘‘šŸ’šShe is pissing Aragon the fuck off this entire song lol šŸ‘‘šŸ’šWhen she says ā€œAre you blind??ā€ She gestures between she and Aragon šŸ‘‘šŸ’š ā€œWhat was I meant to do?ā€ Is sung like a confused toddler lol šŸ‘‘šŸ’š So the bit where they play the wedding song, all the queens bow to her and she walks past, smiling and waving and she gets to the end of the line and is like ā€œHold up,, let me tell you how it went down HENRYā€™S OUT EVERY NIGHT ā€¦. Etcā€ šŸ‘‘šŸ’šā€Bro just shut up!ā€ Instead of mate šŸ‘‘šŸ’šShe even asks the band what was she meant to do, and everyone is repeating her and she screams ā€œOH MY GOD SERIOUSLY HE REALLY WANTS TO CUT MY HEAD OFFā€ šŸ‘‘šŸ’šand then she grins again after a long silence and sheā€™s all smug like ā€œI guess he really liked my headā€¦..ā€ While kinda licking her lips lol šŸ‘‘šŸ’šDEAR GOD HER RIFFS JESUS FUCKING HREHTTLTURHGUEHURL šŸ‘‘šŸ’šAnd she was like ā€œyeahā€¦ that was such a weekendā€¦ I like diedā€¦ and it was so extra! So im clearly the winner. So now, I have to sing a song I wrote when I found out that Catherine of Aragon had died. Its called WEAR YELLOW TO A FUNERAL SING IF YOU KNOW THE WORDS. And the bass came in and Boleyn sings ā€œCatherine was a massive C-ā€ and the other Queens immediately shut her up šŸ‘‘Aragon and Boleyn start arguing until Seymour is like ā€œits my turn nowā€¦ā€ šŸ‘‘Everyone looks at het before they burst out laughing, telling her ā€˜byeā€™ and ā€˜girl, pleaseā€™ šŸ‘‘And Seymour is like yeah,, I was in love and I was really really lucky. šŸ‘‘šŸ–¤ And Seymour goes into this really heartbreaking monologue about how she missed her songs future and how she had a picture of her family. She said that Henry was really sweet and that she loved him šŸ‘‘Boleyn cuts her off and is like ā€œyeahhhh,, there was this one really cute time where he, like, cut my head off :) šŸ‘‘šŸ–¤Seymour said that Aragon and Boleyn were badasses. Then she said that she promised to always stay by his side and didnā€™t yell at him back like the other two because she loved him. Then she dedicated the song to him šŸ‘‘šŸ–¤Heart of Stone started and honestly,,, its not my favorite song and I usually skip it. But mY GOODNESS. Abby Mueller is a fucking goddess wow. The amount of control she has on her voice is astounding šŸ‘‘šŸ–¤(fun fact abt meā€” I have perfect pitch lol) Ā they pitch changed it into A major and it transposes into B major which was SO BEAUTIFUL. It made me actually like the song lol šŸ‘‘šŸ–¤Its not really eventful,, she just stands in the middle of the stage. šŸ‘‘Seymour is like,, ā€œwhat hurts more than a broken heart?ā€ And Ā Boleyn is like ā€œA chopped off headā€ šŸ‘‘Almost immediately Ā after it transfers to Cleves and sheā€™s like ā€œsoo heā€™s running out of options in England he had to expand his fields and adjust his location settings to find his next queen. We are Heading to Germany where Ā he got the help of Hanā€¦.. šŸ‘‘At some point during the song, the other queens ran off stage to get their glasses and ruffs šŸ‘‘They all run back on stage in their glasses and ruffs (Cleves still hasnā€™t said his last name yet) and they all whisper ā€œHolbienā€ šŸ‘‘WELCOME TO THE HOUSE šŸ‘‘lol this song is SO funnyā€¦ and Cleves is so fucking adorable (she was flossing at some point). The dancing was soā€¦ Germanā€¦it was hilarious. šŸ‘‘So after the song is done,, the girls still have their ruffs and glasses on and it kinda turns into a mobile app like tinder.. šŸ‘‘Basically there are two queens before Cleves and they all stand up and walk downstage as they are introduced, they smile and their picture is taken and they wait for about two seconds before Henry swipes left or right. šŸ‘‘The two in front of Cleves are played by Parr and Howard. šŸ‘‘After Cleves is selected their is a Holbein reprise šŸ‘‘ā¤ļøThe other queens run off taking the ruffs and Cleves is left on the stage sighing comically several times. Sheā€™s at the back of the stage sitting on a makeshift stone šŸ‘‘ā¤ļøā€Its the tragic story of a princess-educated, savvy, young- deemed ugly by an ulcer-ridden, wheezing, winkled man 20 years her senior.ā€ šŸ‘‘ā¤ļøWHATS A MORE DEVASTATING FATE THAN BEING FORCED INTO A BEAUTIFUL PALACE IN RICHMOND WITH MORE MONEY THAN I COULD EVER SPEND AND NO MAN TO TELL ME WHAT TO DO WITH IT šŸ‘‘ā¤ļøGet down is also key changed šŸ‘‘ā¤ļøWhen she sings ā€œIā€™m the Queen of the castleā€ she is skipping across the stage šŸ‘‘ā¤ļøWhen she gives her fur to the footman, she actually takes off her coat and hands it to one of the queens. The crowd went crazy and sheā€™s like ā€œguys stop,ā€™ and like acting all shy but secretly enjoying it-she says ā€œOkurrrrrrrrrā€ . Then sheā€™s like ā€œAS YOU WEREā€ and everyone is quiet lol šŸ‘‘ā¤ļøthe part where it slows down and sheā€™s like ā€œSIT DOWNNN YOU DIRTTTY RrrrrrASCALLLā€ she opera sings it and I shat myself šŸ‘‘ā¤ļøshe uses her microphone as a lute lol šŸ‘‘ā¤ļøYOU CANT (nope) STOP (nuh-uh) YOU CANT STOP ME šŸ‘‘ā¤ļøAt some point she squeezes her boob. I love her. šŸ‘‘ā¤ļøafter she kills us all by belting that last note she points to a girl in the front row and is like ā€œYOU IN THE PINK DRESS!ā€ and she gestures for her to stand up. And the girl stands up and they bop together with Cleves ad libbing in the background šŸ‘‘ā¤ļøEventually she says ā€œOkay sugar this is my song, GET DOWNā€ šŸ‘‘ā¤ļøAnd then after a moment of silence sheā€™s like ā€œSo yeah it was really tragicā€¦ā€ šŸ‘‘Aragon is like that doesnā€™t sound difficult at all and Ceves is like ā€œohā€¦ yeah.. I probably wonā€™t win this thingā€¦ WELP BACK TO THE PALACE!ā€ šŸ‘‘the queens argue more and honestly itā€™s iconic šŸ‘‘Seymour is yelling at Aragon and her voice is so loud and Cleves interrupts her and is like ā€œguys,ā€¦ I have the plagueā€ and they all gasp and sheā€™s like ā€œHAHA JUST KIDDING MY LIFES AMAZINGā€ they roll their eyes and Parr is like ā€œour next queen! K HOWARD!ā€ And everyone is like who??? šŸ‘‘Aragon is like ā€œ The least relevant Catherine,,ā€ and Boleyn is like ā€œYeahhh i get it and I still donā€™t care,,,ā€ā€ØšŸ‘‘Howard is like ā€œYouā€™re rightā€¦ I need all the help I can compete. What happened to you was terrible,, and so were you songs,,ā€ Then she proceeded to roast everyone. She says ā€œAnne you obviously had it worse I mean you lost your headā€¦ā€¦. Oh waitā€¦..ā€ šŸ‘‘šŸ’—And then she says ā€œbut seriously Anna, getting rejected for your looks really sucksā€¦. cant relateā€¦Iā€™m really hotā€¦. So yeah. I can compete like thisā€ or smthing and then all you wanna do starts. šŸ‘‘šŸ’—At the beginning of the song the queens touch her everywhere and she leans into it willingly šŸ‘‘šŸ’—Blowing the flute,, she winks at the audience and when she says C-D she puts her hand in front of her crotch and squeezes. šŸ‘‘šŸ’— ā€œThere was this guyā€¦ Francis and he asked me to be his little piece of aaaasssssssā€¦istant! šŸ‘‘šŸ’—The song goes from upbeat to upsetting very very quickly after Francis she starts to become less trusting and she gets more disoriented as the show goes on. šŸ‘‘šŸ’—ā€Apparently men only hire women to get them into their private chamberā€¦ times were different thenā€¦ā€ šŸ‘‘šŸ’—When she says ā€œHe says Ā we have this connection,ā€ Ā about Henry Seymour comes from behind her and touches her stomach ā€” all you can see is her hand touching her sensually. She looks a little surprised and then sheā€™s like ā€œI guess its not so different..ā€ šŸ‘‘šŸ’—By the time we get to Thomas Culpepper she is flustered and VERY uncomfortable. The girls are all touching her now and she looks down and stares at their hand before pushing them away and finishing the end of the song. she keeps pushes them away but they keep coming back. She looks utterly heartbroken and you can see her unraveling. šŸ‘‘šŸ’—THAT RIFF WAS SO GGHRSILGBRLGKJBJL šŸ‘‘šŸ’—she screams ā€œWHEN WILL ENOUGH BE ENOUGHā€ as they keep touching her and she fails as she pushes them away. šŸ‘‘šŸ’—Eventually she gets them off but she ends up by herself on the stage with her face facing up and a dim pink spotlight is on her. šŸ‘‘šŸ’—There is a chilling silence and then sheā€™s smiling and says ā€˜YEAH and then I was beheaded and I won this competition!ā€ šŸ‘‘Then they get into another argument. Boleyn starts talking about how her beheading was more relevant because Henry humiliated her more and Aragon was like,,, um I won the humiliation game and she counts her mistresses šŸ‘‘Then they start yelling about the miscarriages they had and Boleyn says she has three and Aragon says ļæ½ļæ½You know what Anne BO-LOSER I HAD FIVEā€ and Parr is like ā€œthis is not okay, donā€™t compare miscarriages, thats hella insensitiveā€ and they push her to the center and tell her to sing her song šŸ‘‘Theres a random baseline again and Parr looks like sheā€™s about to start singing but she stops and says,,ā€Iā€™m good,ā€ and tries to go off stage. They all accuse her of being a sore loser because she survived and knows that she had no chance of winning. šŸ‘‘Parr is like,,, NO its pitting us against each other and the queens all groan Ā and make fun of her and sheā€™s like okay,, imma sing the song then. And Katherine Howard says ā€œAre you sure?? Are you sure you dont want to stick to backing vocals where you belong?ā€ šŸ‘‘šŸ’™And Parr softly says ā€œQueens take a seat,ā€ before turning to the pianist and saying ā€œCan you give me a Bb maj7, please?ā€ šŸ‘‘šŸ’™Parr shuts down all the queens and says her life wasnā€™t all rainbows because she survived. And she talks about her love tom, and I never realized that the song is a letter to tom. She starts off ā€œDear Tom, You know I love you boy,ā€ šŸ‘‘šŸ’™ Anna Uzele was so fucking good. And Tbh,, this is my least favorite song so I donā€™t remember much about the staging (Iā€™m sorry) šŸ‘‘šŸ’™Side note,, parr is such a badass and an amazing woman šŸ‘‘At the end of the song, she turns to the queens and is like ā€œwithout Henry we all disappear ,ā€ and Boleyn is like ā€œI donā€™t get itā€ and parr asks ā€œHow does anyone know who we areā€ and Boleyn is like ā€œmY SiX fInGeRs-ā€œ before Aragon cuts her off and is like ā€œPut it away, babyā€ šŸ‘‘Parr then asks Henry the 7 and 6ā€™s wives names and nobody can answer. ā€œbut, when we get together as a group-ā€œ Boleyn cuts her off and is like ā€œEVERYONE NOTICES THAT JANE CANā€™T DANCE!ā€ ā€œNO WE COMPARE OURSELVESā€ šŸ‘‘when Boleyn finally gets it she explains the situation like sheā€™s an encyclopedia and it was so funny and fast and oMG šŸ‘‘ā€UGH if we had realized this before we started we could have done something else like make a fake competition to show everyone how messed up comparing us is and then we could reclaim our story and all become the leading ladiesā€¦ā€ ā€œ:/ and they are all saying this dialogue its just split up and I dont remember it very well šŸ‘‘IF ONLY WE HAD THOUGHT OF THAT BEFORE šŸ‘‘then they look at each other and smirk at the audience before reprising Parrā€™s song as ā€œWe donā€™t need your love,ā€ šŸ‘‘Which was so good bc THEY DONā€™T NEED HENRYā€™S LOVE YES šŸ‘‘Then they point out ā€œWe might only be remember for marrying the same man,, but why does anyone give a sh- who he is? Itā€™s because of his,,ā€ then they all harmonize ā€™SIIIIIIX WIVESā€™ šŸ‘‘AND WE ALL HAVE A ROYAL HAPPY EVER AFTER but Boleyn cuts Seymour off and is like ā€œBut we didnā€™tā€ šŸ‘‘then they go onto explain how none of them had happy endings and theyā€™re like,, but we can rewrite them! So they do and that leads into Six which is such a soft song. šŸ‘‘Six, actually starts off very slowly. It speeds up after they say ā€œweā€™re sixā€ šŸ‘‘It was such an energy ending I was speechless and gold confetti poured down on them and OMG I was shaken to my core.Ā

šŸ‘« preston & scout
send a šŸ‘« and Iā€™ll write four headcanons i have about our musesā€™ relationship.
i cn imagine them somehow being wrangled into babysitting fr her sister bethan one time n.... she has three kids who r all young (like 6, 7 n 7 bc she had twin boys then a girl) n theyā€™re all a handful in their own way. the boys r SO boisterous n loud like theyā€™re truly feral n the girl is very.... like scout bt..... an outspoken n absolutely fearless version...... the only time sheā€™s quiet is when sheā€™s reading a book. anyway. i cn see scout n preston being run RAGGED hving to look after these demons like the boys wld slap mud prints onto the wallpaper..... theyā€™d pull drawers out looking fr their confiscated toys when they misbehaved n cutlery wld crash bc itā€™d fall on the floor... theyā€™d run away frm the scene of this crime after..... bebe scout wld be like..... UR THE UGLIEST BOYS Iā€™VE EVER KNOWN..... AND I HATE U!!!!! hurling crayons at her brothers fr their mischief... n scout n preston wld have to somehow neutralise all of this chaos. it wld be exhausting. i cn anticipate it mounting frustrations n tensions to the point where scout n preston might even bicker between themselves jst over stupid stuff like scout being like preston u canā€™t give them chocolate before theyā€™ve had their dinner n preston being like cmon.... let them live a little...... this isnā€™t a dictatorship... n scout being like do u WANT them to b bouncing off the WALLS???? literally like a married couple.... theyā€™d finally manage to put them to bed in bethanā€™s room (which ws renovated into a room w three beds fr them to stay in when bethan needs help aka needs scout to babysit) n scout wld usher preston frm the room to let them settle n once she thought he wasnā€™t watching sheā€™d tuck each in n kiss their heads n be like love u hell spawns. then sheā€™d go dwn n eye preston on the couch frm the doorway like >_> bt still go to get them a beer each..... i cn picture literally by the time she returns frm the kitchen preston being asleep bc the children r relentless.... n even if theyā€™d been bickering a bunch scout wld roll her eyes n kind of smile abt it n swig her beer then put it dwn n grab a blanket n carefully tuck it over him so he didnā€™t catch a cold in their drafty house w a faulty boiler.......... sickening.
this is related to scoutā€™s nephews n niece again bt in summer they always play in the yard w the hose n i can picture scout n preston having like.... a fight in the morning mayb n her storming dwnstairs n leaving him to get dressed n leave or whatever jst childishly........ n then by the time he got down if it ws summer the kids wld be prancing around outside n shrieking up a storm as scout sat angrily in a fold out chair watching over them........ mayb theyā€™d all b like PRESTON PRESTON STAY N PLAY n heā€™d be like iā€™m gna head home............... n theyā€™re like NO PLAY W US PLAY W US n one of the boys even sprays him w the hose. mayb preston wld join in playing w them just picking him up n pretending to fling him around n theyā€™d all be laughing n screaming n scout wld be a tiny bit mellowed by this bt still stubbornly clinging to being mad...... her niece is like SCOUT PLAY WITH US PLAY WITH US n sheā€™s like maybe in a bit. i cn imagine preston spraying her w a little bit of water frm the hose to b childish kind of joining in w the kids being a nuisance n scout being like WTF??????? n then snatching the hose off him n spraying him bk n it just breaking into an all out war where theyā€™re trying to get the hose off each other n both end up soaking wet n she breaksĀ  n laughs n heā€™s picking her up as the kids all cackle n scream. their fight jst somehow resolved in the space of half an hr when they were jst on the verge of another stupid breakup............. this tumultuous relationship........ no wonder their friends r sick of them.
scoutā€™s dad is...... certainly a character n she hasnā€™t heard from him in yrs bt he made a big reputation fr himself in town to say the least.... was just in w some rly shady ppl n always fucking everyone over fr his own selfish agenda.... truly jst a liability to b associated w nvm to have as a husband/father so the wilders rly.... went thru it a bit w him. it ws like being buckled into a rollercoaster. nw heā€™s been gone a few yrs theyā€™ve managed to pick up some of the shrapnel he left behind bt thereā€™s still pieces n thtā€™s evident in the fact tht every so often guys he used to run w will come knocking trying to shake them dwn fr debts Poppa Wilder still owes them. heā€™s on the run frm the law nw n they hv no idea where he is bt they still have to deal w these repercussions. anyway. scout is very much like... I Will Deal With Everything In The World On My Own bt with luca in prison, jasper out n about all the time n rarely home sometimes bc heā€™s a free spirit, her mum working long night shifts n sleeping thru the day n her sister bethan being moved out w kids a lot of the time itā€™s..... just scout in the house which she wld never admit gets rly lonely after growing up w a big hectic family. i cn imagine one of these guys waiting fr scout after her shift at the diner n just asking her again when heā€™s gna get his money n her being like fr the last time idk where my waste of space father is!!!!!! n he wouldnā€™t make a threat or anything bt he knows where they live so tht night i feel like scout wld be kind of nervous n peering out of the curtains a lot jst On Guard in case he shows up to take wht heā€™s owed by fleecing the place or smthn. mostly paranoia idk if he actually wld bt. scout wld just be kind of scared sleeping there alone n even if sheā€™d wna deal w it on her own i feel like sheā€™d put off contacting preston until pretty late when sheā€™d eventually snap n just be like. can u stay over tonight? n she wouldnā€™t text it either which is kind of unusual fr her bc she mostly texts bt sheā€™d wna hear his voice to calm her a little i think. again none of this wld b verbalised she wouldnā€™t even tell him abt this situation bc she tries to be independent as possible n not rely on anyone else fr anything bt......... it would calm her down a lot when he arrived n ws sleeping nxt to her. i feel like his laidback attitude is quite gd for her in tht respect like it has a soothing effect at times..... others perhaps not bt <3 miley cyrus lifeā€™s a climb.....
i feel like her ex............. wld not be happy abt scout dating preston. heā€™s quite a loose canon / volatile character n jst............... scrappy.......... n antagonistic sometimes...... not the worst bt definitely not the best! honestly i feel like if he ever bumped into preston he wld maybe even pick a fight w him except he wouldnā€™t mention scout he would just act like it wasnā€™t related bt it Would Be. if preston ws injured in any way via this then i canā€™t even express hw furious scout wld be sheā€™d actually lose it a bit.... KJGFKHFKGHSFKGHS hell hath no fury like a scout wilder scorned <3 sheā€™d nurse preston better if he had a bust lip or whtever (sheā€™s quite gd at doing these things after yrs of living w reckless brothers who were always getting into fights n also hving a mother whoā€™s in nursing n taught her first aid etc) n she literally wld refuse if he tried to be like i can do this myself sheā€™d b like SIT. DOWN. stomping around the place grabbing her supplies n being so angry until it actually came to like.... dabbing his face where sheā€™d b extremely gentle. stark contrast. sheā€™d keep ranting abt how she was gna confront her ex fr it n even if preston was like just leave it sheā€™d refuse at first then eventually be like ok :) w a tight lipped smile bt. the next day bc she knows where her ex hangs out sheā€™d storm up to him on the street n jst fking RIP him a new one sheā€™d b fully shouting at him unleashing such an ungodly rant w no fks given to who was watching..............if it was in a tv show iā€™d imagine her rampage all silent as opera music plays over the top n sheā€™s jst yelling in slow motion as a child across the street gasps so loud at the multitude of swear words raining in his direction.... honestly i cn imagine this getting bk to preston w how public it was bt i get the feeling tht even tho he mightā€™ve been like nah leave it he wld find her unbridled wrath funny n know it ws rooted in hw protective she is of those she loves which. as reluctant as she ever likes to admit it definitely includes him at this point.....

Can you please fill me a bit in whats happening with shameless? I stopped watching it last season, just couldnt handle the soap opera of it all
i only watched the ianmickey scenes so i dont know too much abt the others but hereā€™s what iā€™ve gleaned from the bits of scenes i catch bookending the gay stuff:
debbie: began offering bjs for money as a distraction (?????) when people began to question the clothing scheme she was running. possibly trying to send her kid to foster care, difficult to tell when lipā€™s gf takes care of the baby most of the time. more of her in a minute though. frank ruined debbieā€™s scheme and now somehow sheā€™s sleeping with a high schooler AND her mom, the mom gives debbie money to be a trophy wife basically. not sure how that happened. debbieā€™s bi now and just began sleeping with mickeyā€™s lesbian cousin
lip: BORINGGGG. lip is boring now. he works at a mechanicā€™s and lives in an RV behind the house (?) with his hot baby mama. they raise their kid and do boring house stuff and are working toward like being normal
carl: ??? failed out of west point or something, i think heā€™s undercover doing weird shit to get into a gang or something. lost interest in him after the huge racist arc in s7 tbh. had to watch him have car sex, 0/10
fiona: moved out, left debbie 50 grand. not sure where all that went. iā€™m pretty sure she moved out in the same coat she almost ran away w/ jimmy in at the end of s1, which would be cool except maybe she just only owns one jacket
frank: who knows. i keep scrolling past his naked body when trying to fast forward though >:(
liam: kinda unsure except he talks now and is hanging out, independently, with what appears to be a high school basketball team. i think he just realized his dream (?)
ianmickey: HEEERES the juice gays. okay so ian and mickey were cellmates in prison except they were fighting bc they were in close quarters way too much and every little thing annoyed them so ian got manipulated by a guy who didnā€™t want to be parolled into stabbing the guy so that ian would go to solitary and the guy would stay in jail except then mickey took separating for a bit to mean a breakup so he tried to break up with ian first by stabbing the guy so they both stabbed him except they had a nice CO who just escorted them back to their cage POST-STABBING and mickey was still mad because ian was fucking him with mayo every morning except then ian got paroled and mick asked him to stay in jail since apparently he WENT to jail just to BE with ian (which apparently viewers already knew like that wasnā€™t a revelation) and then ian said heā€™d do it if mickey wanted him to so he went to stab someone else to throw his parole but mickey stopped him last minute with his gang and told ian it was wrong to ask him to stay and also ian had a gay friend group in prison (who were murderers) and mickey went to his dadā€™s nazi friends for boy advice (who gave it to him) and then ian got out and then thru circumstances i donā€™t understand mickey snuck out? was paroled? and ended up on a bus where his PO found him but just sorta escorted him home so mickey goes home to ian who now has a PO that is blackmailing him into running an insurance scam and the POĀ ā€œalways wanted a milkovichā€ so she bribes mickeyā€™s PO to transfer mickey to her but she sucks and so she gets thrown out of a window shortly thereafter and ian thinks that mickey did it and mickey thinks that ian did it so he goes to his dad and his lesbian cousin and it turns out mickeyā€™s helping them restore & move guns or whatever and mickeyā€™s dad knows heā€™s gay because mickey goes to him for advice on what to do about ian and terry is almost just regular-homophobic for a second about the whole concept of mickey caring for ian because theyā€™re together but once someone brings up marriage he calls mickey some slurs and threatens to kill him and gets real specific with what genitals mickeyā€™s partners need to have and at the same time as this is all going on, ian is separately getting advice to marry mickey so they get engaged to abuse spousal privilege (because they both think the other one killed their PO) except when theyre at the courthouse they see that the POā€™s blackmailed lesbian lover did the crime so they get in a fight about theĀ ā€œrealā€ reason they got engaged and even though heā€™s upset mickey signs the marriage cert anyway but ian doesnā€™t because heā€™s too self-loathing to think he deserves love so they break up and mickey starts fucking aĀ ā€œglittery twinkā€ (his dyke cousinā€™s words, or maybe ianā€™s?) that he obviously hates and also heā€™s pretending that heā€™s vers now so they make a bunch of homophobic jokes about the boyfriend (that mickeyā€™s moved in with, and he drives a moped) and as revenge ian gets a grindr date to where mickeyā€™s going that night and he meets them there with his extremely flamboyant date so they make a bunch of homophobic jokes about him and then the glittery twink says something mean about mickey so ian beats the shit out of him and then mickey knocks ianā€™s date out cold for saying heā€™d sit on ianā€™s dick later and ian proposes to mickey even though earlier at the courthouse mickey pushed him down the stairs and broke his leg but regardless mickey says yes so they get engaged and terry comes back the next morning with a gun and calls mickey slurs outside the house and they pull a gun on each other and more homophobic things are said and mickey begins getting really really into wedding planningĀ ā€œas revengeā€ to make it the most nauseating thing his dadā€™s ever seen but he very obviously actually deeply cares and wants all of this because mickey has been turned into a caricature of himself whose only traits are violence and honed, homophobic stereotypes of domesticity
and thatā€™s what you missed on shameless.

( gavin leatherwood, trans male, he/him, fire emblem: three houses ) * &. i know it must be scary for you, ferdinand von aegir, after surviving the takeover. to turn into someone like aeric-ferdinand ā€œferdieā€ vittori, a twenty-four year-old actor at castle town centre of theatre & dance, right here in castle town. just remember that you are as sincere as you are opinionated, and to be wary, be safe, be true to who you are : neutral through and through. ( hylia )
Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā i could never drop him i just. i could Not. i rly couldnā€™t but i DID ..... want to revamp him a bit so hereā€™s take two on ferdie !! politics, war, death, & divorce tw under the cut !!
Tumblr media
BEFORE THE SNAP.Ā  /Ā  F E R D I N A N DĀ  V O NĀ  A E G I RĀ 
So alright. Chances are , if youā€™ve heard of Ferdinand , itā€™s because youā€™ve heard the infamousĀ ā€˜ I am Ferdinand von Aegir ! ā€™ quote goinā€™ around which . . . attributes from. Him introducing himself every time you select him on the battlefield in FE3H. Donā€™t believe me ?? WATCH.Ā 
...u donā€™t need to watch that whole thing Iā€™m just tryna get the meme out of the way before I talk abt everything else.
BC ALL JOKES ASIDE I HONESTLY LOVE FERDINAND SOOO MUCHĀ n I promise Iā€™ll take him seriously bc holy fucking shit this character is my babyyyy.
So for STARTERS. Ferdinand is the legitimate son of House Aegir in the Adrestian Empire , which is the house that produces the Empireā€™s Prime Ministers. Now , hereā€™s the thing ; Ferdinand himselfĀ isnā€™t involved in any of this , but thanks to the Adrestian nobles pretty much stripping the Emperor of their power in the past . . . the Aegir house ( much like the other houses , but Duke Aegirā€™s implied to have like , spearheaded it ) is pretty damn corrupt.
NOT FERDINAND , THOUGH , considering Ferdinand is actually someone who has veryĀ opposing views to his father. Ferdinand , in a nutshell , is basically the snobby noble trope youā€™re expecting turned upside down crossed over with a Disney prince. Thatā€™s the best way i can describe him.
Ferdinand is very aware of his noble status , but he is veryĀ steadfast in his opinion of what is truly means to be a noble. Heā€™s well-aware of the difference between nobles & commoners , but where youā€™d expect him to use that to degrade people of lesser status , he . . . doesnā€™t.Ā 
Ferdinand stronglyĀ believes the duties of a noble constitute of protecting & helping the common people , and that is why theyā€™re so high in status - theyā€™re there to assist and make things betterĀ , and not to make things worse , and it absolutely sickens him to his core when there are corrupt nobles who very clearlyĀ use their power for selfish & malicious gain.Ā 
Like , heā€™s confident - heā€™s very confident and sure of himself , but he isnā€™t a dick ( in that sense ; he can be kind of a dick , donā€™t get me wrong ) about it. Heā€™s actually extremely polite & respectful , very kind & genuine - like I really donā€™t think lying is something that this boy is capable of doing , I reallyĀ donā€™t. But heā€™s humble in the sense that he isnā€™t afraid to admit when he did something wrong , or that he needs to apologize - IN FACT , a lotĀ of his supports have him apologize for approaching someone wrongly or when heā€™s accused of something.
One example , he has a support with Dorothea where she tells him that she hates him , and instead of fighting her on it , what he does is he tries to figure out whyĀ she hates him so he can better himself and fix something he did wrong.Ā 
Another example , his B-support with Bernadetta has him apologize for spooking her , and he respects her comfort levels by speaking to her on the other side of the door to her room because now he understands that Bernadetta feels extremely scared & uncomfortable during confrontation.
LIKE . . . okay , in the simplest of words , Ferdinand is just good. Heā€™s a good person and he tries his hardest to be better if someone brings it to his attention that heā€™s doing something wrong.
BUT ALSO . . . the thing is , Ferdinand is also extremelyĀ opinionated to the point where heā€™ll share his thoughts even if not asked ; and sometimes , it comes out. Dickish. Like , really , heā€™ll criticize anyone if he believes he should because he hatesĀ the idea of someone who doesnā€™t - exemplified in the beginning of his supports with Hubert , where he condemns Hubert for not openly criticizing Edelgard but Ferdinandā€™s criticism can come out . . . harsh. Like , heā€™s respectful still , but heā€™s harsh. And thatĀ is because Ferdinand firmly believes in speaking his mind.
His determination also makes him stubborn & extremely competitive to a point where it becomes damn near annoyingĀ and this is , because again , he always strives to better himself - even going as far as to declare Edelgard his rival when she . . . really doesnā€™t think of him as one , and then he gets his ass kicked and runs with his tail between his legs because he lost. Heā€™s. Heā€™s competitive. I will not lie to you. Like heā€™s great but aLSO... this guy doesnā€™t. Know. When to let go.
Bt yeah in a nutshell - Ferdinand is a rich guy who criticizes other rich guys for being jerks and not caring abt other people , and he can come off as a dick but ultimatelyĀ he means well & he is a LOT better than some of these other assholes out there. Ferdinandā€™s.... heā€™s just GOOD.Ā 
Bt now that I have the basis of his character out of the way , I want to mention that a major change about him is that Iā€™m changing what route Iā€™m pulling him from - originally , I pulled him from Azure Moon , where if you donā€™t recruit him you haveĀ to kill him at the Great Bridge of Myrddin. So insteadĀ , now , Iā€™ll be pulling him from Crimson Flower , where heā€™s still sided with Edelgard but now she has Byleth & sheā€™s triumphant and everythingā€™s okay on the Empireā€™s end. But - in other routes - while heā€™s still with Edelgard , he unfortunatelyĀ doesnā€™t make it so if u have AM or VW muses . . . Ferdie didnā€™t make it.
BUT THATā€™S WHAT MAKES THESE THINGS INTERESTINGGGGG and I love it so for that reason ,,, shoves. Ferdinand. In everyoneā€™s direction.
Tumblr media
AFTER THE SNAP.Ā  /Ā  A E R I C - F E R D I N A N DĀ Ā ā€œ F E R D I E ā€Ā  V I T T O R I
So the more major changes from his pre-revamp portrayal lie in his CT life - his nameā€™s changed , his occupationā€™s changed , and almost his entire whole past has changed.
Aeric-Ferdinand Vittori was the only child of a film actor & stage actress , pretty famous people , and he was born with the spotlight on him immediatelyĀ given that he scored his first role as a child at six years old. Since then , he never really had much of an easy time.
His big break was as a teenager in a teen drama that lasted from when he was fourteen to when he was nineteenĀ , the co-star of a vampire television drama in where his character was a fan-favorite. He ultimately left the show and his character was killed off , and he had some starring roles in other movies & the like before he ultimately moved to Broadway. And in that , he had a bit of an easier time , but he would still often feel like he was about to crack under pressure since all eyes were still on him. He was known as a talented young man with a beautiful singing voice , and unfortunately , everyone wants something to do with you when you have something like that.
His parents were also always in the spotlight because of their very public divorce , and it started to bleed into Ferdinandā€™s career & public image as well with many people poking their nose into his life and asking his opinion on it. MultipleĀ scandals came out claiming that he leaned one way or the other during it and ultimately , that ruined his relationship with his parents. So at twenty-three , he left the Broadway spotlight , and decided to step out of any light in general for a while.
Settling down in Castle Town , a place where nobody bothered to look , was a good start.
He still lovedĀ performing , so he worked as an actor at the local theatre on stage - trying his hardestĀ not to get the big roles and take those up , because he was still a relatively big name & when youā€™re a big name , people lean into their biases.
And then . . . at this point was where heĀ ā€œwoke upā€. Because his whole past was fake - but thereā€™s always a point where you realize it is.
He had a girlfriend in Castle Town beforehand that he broke up with due to his paranoia that sheā€™d get caught up in the publicity that he did - Nerissa. And he had parents that he didnā€™t even talk to anymore , and it threw him for a loop because he was reminded of his father back in Adrestia. And suddenly , heā€™s no longer a soldier or a noble , but with his celebrity status , heā€™s basically the closest there is to modern nobility at this point.
So . . . Ferdinand feels. Strange. He always loved the opera & he always loved performances but he never thought of himself as someone who would actually do so. Itā€™s strange , but he likes it.
So now , heā€™s trying to figure out exactly what the hell happened and how he got here and heā€™s grown pretty used to people not remembering who he is , but it still . . . hurts.
And THAT is where I end this !! Iā€™m gonna go back 2 my plotting DMs and message more ppl but if this gives u some ideas pls do hit me up bc I love Ferdie SOOOO MUCH and Iā€™m excited for his revamp !!
Also if ur curious ab his old intro still Iā€™ll link it here bc thereā€™s probably some pre-snap stuff I forgot in here thatā€™s in there so !!Ā yes. iā€™ll b around n will probs try n get an open up soon !!

S2 E10 - Hunted
heehehehehee maybe I can coax myself to eat a slice of pizza during this episode.. I think that could be called dinner
Patients log oooh another demon boi he looks unhappy. I have an ability. O ELECTRICITY POWERS thatā€™s sexy. This guy should enter BDSM circles. Who is this psychiatrist actor
D.P. is a good X Files episode. The yellow eyed man wants you to kill the neighborā€™s cat
The musical sting in this episode is telling me that the psych is going to die. They styled this man like Sam on purpose I think. I guess we wonā€™t find out about the psychiatrist, but this guy is certainly on his way to death... got nice and stabbed.
This entry shot is very soap-opera. Also we have Samā€™s stupid awful shirt. Dean has to save Sam. If Dean canā€™t save Sam then he might have to kill him. Sam is freaking out. I guess this is the justification for why Dean wants to just murder everything. Jarp is hulking out.
ā€œI donā€™t even know what the hell anymoreā€ same Dean baby thereā€™s nothing there
What is Samā€™s plan exactly besides just being pissed?
Oh is SAM now the who one will get stabbed? The scene is set up very similarly. Oh heā€™s stealing a car. Is he running away from Dean? Sammy boy what are you doing
Oo some nice light filtering are we on a horror set now? I sure hope there are creatures!!
Sam just got.. exploded ?
What and .. who.. there is a lady having a nightmare. Her husband just went ā€œok sureā€ to ā€œletā€™s go back to sleepā€
Sam very impressively not exploded. I see so he went to the Roadhouse. Sam pointedly not answering the question. Jo is hunting and left. Ellen should murder the Winchesters and then we can have an Ellen/Jo show that would be AMAZING.
Ellen why the fuck would you forgive John Winchester. ā€œI donā€™t think he ever forgave himselfā€ uuuuuuuuuuuuuugrosssssssss
YES MULLETT MAN IS BACK
Right we have a place to start. Ash is hot also. He is styled very well in this scene. Yeah obv someone is hunting down the demon chosen.
Dean must be shitting his head out of his ass freaking out abt Sam.
Sam is having a solo episode for the most part it seems. Good for him.
Hey look itā€™s the room of like a normal kid whose dad didnā€™t go full metal jacket across the US after his mom immolated.
THE MAN WITH THE YELLOW EYES creeepy.... I see so now is Sam going to get attacked Jarpā€™s expression looks a little too innocent.
Thereā€™s just a girl here now. Eva.. I have not heard about Eva. Oh sheā€™s the lady from before who saw Sam get exploded. Is she having dreams about the demon chosen ?? Literally why would that be a thing where is this plot going??????
Eva is stalking Sam through her dreams. Oh but except that Eva is a girl .. what is the plan/pattern here.
Ellen is going to flip on Sam amazing
Something going on in Lafayette Indiana ?? Is this just a middle American fever dream to be relevant somehow.
I like Evaā€™s energy. She seems unreasonably vicious for how normal sheā€™s trying to be.
Uhoh Sammy Dean found you. Very casually posing in front of the window. Dean ships Sam/Eva
That is the smallest cassette ever
Yes, heā€™s talking about you Eva
Yes itā€™s that one hunter I bet from the vamp yes itā€™s Gordon fortunately Dean is there to get fucking knocked the hell out by the butt of the gun
Dem low rise boot cut jeans tho.
Eva has not been inducted into the hunter tribe apparently. Dean is being tied up by Gordon.
Dean is a nerd confirmed again. Their code word for a gun is ā€œfunky townā€
Gordon is hunting Sam
Eva seems to not like her fiance very much. She leaves him for Sam.. ? I guess?
Coming war..
As though Dean didnā€™t get a girl killed who was being possessed by a demon
Who is the actor for Gordon... Sterling K. Brown. Heā€™s very very good. Oh heā€™s had an incredibly successful career he was in Black Panther??? Good for him, itā€™s well deserved.
Itā€™s nice to have tension where Iā€™m actually not rooting for the Winchester in danger to die. I hope Sam lives.
Iā€™m glad they brought Gordon back I like his character. Also because Gordon literally killed his own sister after she became a vampire so he really would kill Sam if he were in Deans position
Yes look itā€™s Dean go get him Sammy.
Hopefully the vision was able to warn him of where the tripwire is.
Letā€™s see what Sammyā€™s skyrim lockpicking level is. High apparently.
Dean thinks Sam just got exploded and heā€™s very very upset he looks like heā€™s choking himself
There is smoke coming.. out? of the shoe?
Sam got the drop on Gordon. He made the same mistake Jo did though and now Gordon is just going to kill him anyway. Except Dean is going to hulk out of his bonds.
Did they.. CG him onto the floor why does that shot look so weird
ā€œItā€™s Samā€ thatā€™s a pretty lame comeback
Those ropes were so fucking easy to untie.
ā€œGordon is taken care ofā€ what the fuck? Oh ok weā€™re having him get arrested??? I guess?? Ok
The roadhouse is full of other hunters apparently
Is Eva okay?
Screw the job. Same Dean. ā€œWe donā€™t get paid, we donā€™t get thanked.ā€ SAME DEAN. Sam wants to keep hunting. So heā€™s the one who keeps Dean in it.
Also we got the first ā€œbitchā€ ā€œjerkā€ exchange. Evaā€™s gonna get fucking murdered apparently. How did they find her house?
How much did they pay for these flashlights? (The show)
Well her husband is dead, and thereā€™s sulphur on the windowsill. deeeemmmoonnnnnn
A ring - Evaā€™s ring.
Well with that I guess we have a motivation for the next several episodes.

18: What is your Song of the week?
canā€™t stand the rain by the rescues. this is the only song of theirā€™s iā€™ve listened to, but i love the kinda spooky vibe of it
19: Is it okay for guys to wear pink?
i absolutely advocate for guys to wear pink, itā€™s a fun color and folks should do whatever they vibe on at all times, esp w fashion and self expression
20: Do you still watch cartoons?
yup! i actually just caught up on steven universe today and iā€™m rly excited to see where things go from here! some of my fav shows are animated, like atla, and like. i feel like itā€™d be super dismissive to avoid all shows in a certain medium just bc itā€™s not live action
21: Whats your least favorite movie?
probably suicide squad. like. p much every part of it was. not to my taste, letā€™s say. i kinda try and avoid movies i know iā€™ll dislike, like some folks i know go see bad movies on purpose and that practice makes me want to die lol
24: What do you dip a chicken nugget in?
ketchup and thatā€™s it, i am not an adventurous eater
25: What is your favorite food?
beef stew. beef is usually super expensive and itā€™s kinda laborious to make so i canā€™t have it too often, but i savor it when i do
26: What movies could you watch over and over and still love?
pacific rim!! itā€™s one of my favorite movies of all time and itā€™s such a rich narrative that thereā€™s always smth going on. other than that, iā€™ve probably seen national treasure a hundred times and still enjoy it. i also love watching disney movies. lilo and stitch is still great, mulan and tangled are probs my fav princess movies, i could go on lol
34: Favorite kind of sandwich?
a meatball sub, tho i donā€™t rly eat sandwiches a lot. meatball subs feel like a full meal which i always like
35: Best thing to eat for breakfast?
eggs and breakfast sausage w a nice tea, maybe an earl grey if iā€™m feeling fancy
36: What is your usual bedtime?
it depends on when i have to get up the next morning, but i usually start thinking abt going to sleep around midnight bc then time seems real
37: Are you lazy?
i would say so, yeah. iā€™m kind of a slob around the house and i usually run out of clean mugs before iā€™ll wash them. i also procrastinate a lot since i rly have to be focused to get stuff done. but i also do that thing where once i start doing smth i canā€™t stop til i finish so i guess i have a work ethic in some sense of the word
38: When you were a kid, what did you dress up as for Halloween?
i would dress up as something different every year. it was kind of a family thing, all of us planning costumes and doing smth new every year. some standout favorites were the phantom of the opera (had never seen it), a corpse bride (had seen it, had loved it), and aphrodite (a huge percy jackson fan)
39: What is your Chinese astrological sign?
rabbit!! which likes to clash w my aries sun but gets along so nicely w my rising libra
