#obviously a lot of context is missing bc I never added words

My favorite take on Colon is that he’s the muscle of the team. But that doesn’t mean he’s just the brawn. I like to think he’s very bad ass.

Technically the canon reason on how he went from being an intern like Spooker to an actual member of P.I.E. Was because he was perfectly headshot Ghost in the head with a sniper… I don’t remember the context or what video but I know it happened bc I watched it in my high school’s computer room instead of doing class work lmao.

Anyways Ghost promoted him out of respect for his skill. B) so that’s something to go off of.

I also know he has… anger issues and is quick to lose his shit. Like when Ghost ran into the woods bc of his fear of Herbal tea. Also jealous of anyone who interacts with Spooker sometimes lol.

For some reason I used to theorize he used to be an undercover cop/detective that lost his partner on a case once. Which would explain his “skills” and weird protectiveness over Spooker.

And a thing im adding to now is that he lost his job due his nature of quickly resorting to anger which probably blew his cover in cases.

Then maybe Colon was hopping from job to job for a bit, like Uber Driver, since he was Ghost’s Uber driver who decided to tag along on a case and the rest is history. He probably missed investigation like jobs and thought ghost hunting would be a good fit.

Speaking of which i feel like he came up with that last name on the spot to make it more appealing or convincing to Ghost bc there’s no way there’s two motherfuckers with the word “Ghost” in their last names/lh/hj

I barely remember any of the details of this headcanon I had and never shared so idk if I’ll keep it but I do like the idea of it though it’ll obviously be different from want my old self had in mind.

Though a fun thing to think about is that Colon said he was from Europe (the Netherlands) and apparently has some sort of connection with the VT world’s version of Russia- Jesus is that why people thought he was a communist 😭 aside from him not liking democracy, bro— anyways it was mentioned during the Elevator game mode in the 5 year anniversary stream. Good stream, lots of lore definitely recommend. He must’ve had some sort of job before pie and stuff though that teaches you to block out your mind from like telepaths or something (watch the stream I just mentioned that’s all I’m gonna say)

Also semi related but I like to headcanon him as some sort of VT-ified of a witchcraft practitioner just because in the Johnny Ghost moving video there’s a comment made on Colon practicing “dark magic” to bring spooker back, though I feel like it could’ve been a misunderstanding on the “dark” part 😭 but anyways I myself am… well I’m a “witchling” but I think it’d be cool to add to his character personally. (Need to do more research tho do make sure it’s done right B) )

have u seen the sing street movie? i loved it and i was reluctant about the musical bc there’s some stuff about the movie that i love that ik wouldn’t translate to stage so im wondering how they compare👀

Just to warn you, I’m answering this in a very long and specific way because I can talk about Sing Street forever (could probably write a thesis on it tbh) so I hope you don’t mind the long answer. It’s a really great question! I have seen the Sing Street movie several times and I love it. Also having seen the stage version in Boston, I can confidently say that though most of the movie translates to the stage version, they are pretty different in a lot of ways, and not just the staging. Here’s my observations:

When you say “stuff about the movie that you love but know wouldn’t translate to the stage” I don’t know if you mean that in a staging way or if you mean specific characteristics or scenes. (I think I know what you’re talking about but that’s a spoiler lol) BUT without spoiling any of the major plot, I can say that in the movie, there’s characters swimming, characters on boats, characters driving/sitting in a car, riding bikes, a motorcycle at one point and none of that is in the stage version obviously because those are very hard things to stage in any musical or play.

That being said, the stage version deviates from the movie at times but the whole storyline and main character arcs are the same. The only thing that’s a bit different is a few scenes, some of the band characters, and songs that are new like Dream For You, Faith of Our Fathers, Up Reprise, and a few 80s songs that aren’t in the movie. The biggest difference (that’s not a spoiler) is that there is no school dance at the end. With a cast of 15 people, 4 of those people being the adult characters, a school dance scene would’ve been tricky to try to stage.

Also I have to say the musical touches on a lot of darker themes while the movie definitely has it’s sad moments, but is overall lighthearted. The stage version is very funny but gets heavy, and that content is treated and performed with lots of respect. Also there was a trigger warning insert in the playbill and on the website when you buy tickets. Adding those heavy scenarios can be hit or miss depending on how the characters cope or how it relates to the plot. (i.e: Do the scenarios help develop character/drive the story forward/give the audience context?) Adding those heavy themes just for the hell of it is bad writing and an unhealthy habit for writers to have. But these themes definitely relate to the plot and characters and drive the story forward along with helping character development. (Some of these themes were hinted at in the movie but never shown/barely mentioned).

The ending of the movie is something that the creator (John Carney) wished he could change, and I think he made the perfect tweaks to it in the stage version. If you’ve watched the movie, you know that the ending has no closure at all. The musical fixes that and it’s a bit more satisfying as an audience member to have closure at the end, especially when the show has as many depressing moments as this one.

Overall, there’s definitely no drastic deviations from the movie, but the stage version is definitely not a carbon copy of the film. For lack of better wording, I’d say the stage version is just more “theatrical.” It’s beautiful just like the movie and I’d recommend it to anyone as soon as it’s staged again, whether it be in Boston, on Broadway, Tour, or West End. I don’t blame you for your reluctance though, there’s always a bit of fear when a favorite movie gets a stage adaptation.

EDIT: I know Sing Street (musical) isn’t being staged anywhere atm but if you’re reading this and wanna learn more about it, listen to the OBCR, watch videos of the precious and talented OBC on YouTube, read reviews from NYTW, join the fandom and get to know the show because it’s amazing and deserves all the love!!

I really don’t think you got what I meant at all.. I don’t hate men, I fight for them too. I never said they weren’t overly represented in violence of any sort. Doesn’t mean I help men bc “it’s not their fault” like wtf but I do have the compassion to realise that small boys aren’t born into that - it’s society and that’s heart breaking. I’m not being like “oh sorry it’s not your fault you hit her” I’m just saying that I still wish small buys weren’t moulded into this by society - nor girls moulded to what they are too. We all have responsibilities for our actions, and I know a lot of men who’s done terribly things. But if we don’t change the way men and women are perceived and expected to be in society we won’t help women’s right nor men’s right to show emotions other than anger. I’m not saying it’s ok to be violent or hurt someone, I’m just saying that feminism includes all besides gender.

I don’t know how you got all of that from what I wrote.. but you kinda missed the point I was trying to make. And where I live men and women goes “we have equality! feminist just hates men. Stop that “me too” shit, they give the power for women to destroy a mans career just by an accusation and they just want money or attention!!” Which is what is was trying to talk against. If that’s not your surroundings then I’m glad for you, but it’s so normalised here that most no matter their gender thinks it in some way. But I will fight for small girls and boys - and women and men. We should all be allowed to have emotions and expecting men and boy to suppress them and to be this fuckboi facade isn’t helping anyone. And that is one of the things I wish to change for men and women. But I never defended men being over represented in staticstics of violent and I don’t know where you got that from “sis”. Please stop putting words in my mouth and belittling me.

If you’re addressing my tags then you’re obviously reading them out of context. Maybe “stop trying to blame a gender” was meant for people who say feminists hate men or women who says they hate men? We’re all responsible for the society we have and we all need to change if we want anything to be different. It’s not only one gender who makes this happen. It’s all of us. That doesn’t mean men aren’t most prone to any kind of violence but we are all adding to the stereotypes and men aren’t born into hurting others but they are taught that anger and aggression are positive male assestss. But it’s not only men teaching men that. We are all a part of society. Nothing will come from blaming a gender whatever it is for society’s gender roles. Ofc men are responsible for hurting women or other men so are women if they hurt someone. But the way society view and expect men to be are adding to the fuel of all this violence. So again, stop reading my tags out of context or putting words in my mouth. Maybe you could ask what I meant instead of making up your mind already?

I’m a feminist but not in the word of “hating men” - which has nothing to do with feminism. I like men, i have men as friends and I have even loved men. I fight for them too, sometimes I’m just not so sure about how society teaches men and women to love themselves. We aren’t fuckable objects and you ain’t got nothing to prove, you don’t have to protect me - I can take care of myself. I don’t hate men I just think your feelings are VALID. And I’m not going to apologies for taking up space anymore, so when I say sometimes I mean all the freaking time.
