I’m not immune to slasher comedy coming of age musicals. Apparently

personal HCs of the human lords in black

Cute ?

[sssaturnsnake]

oooh the wretched beasts take residence within my mind (individuals under the cut)

idk if i even like these designs that much. all i did was slap their npmd fits on their doll designs (but with more human proportions), but they feel kinda jank. they’re all to much of the same color or too much negative space. these’re highly subject to change i think. idk. i dont know if i’m ever gonna draw any of these guys again, i just wanted to have them out of my brain.

right, the individuals. here. like i said you can use these designs, i don’t mind, just don’t pretend you made them or something.

will these upload as transparent ? will they upload with a white background ? i don’t know and i don’t care.

guys i think he came back wrong

[ghostingfee]

so wanting is a recurring motif/theme in hatchetfield musicals right. with What Do You Want Paul in tgwdlm (used to convey Paul's ambivalence) and What Tim Wants in black Friday (and the whole consumerism message).

so I'm happy to see NPMD continues this trend with this lyric in The Summoning

whatever we want we want we want / whatever we want we get / whatever you want you want you want / forever puts you in debt

one of the things that makes me insane about lautski (among MANY) is how aware of each other’s boundaries they are and how they’re able to banter with each other without taking it to heart

throughout the show they’re lightly teasing each other (i.e. literally all of “if I loved you” and steph’s c+ bringing down pete’s gpa) but they’re also earnest with each other about the things they joke about when it counts!!! best example of that is in “cool as I think I am (reprise)” with:

“you’re not as cool as you think you are” “but you’re as smart as I know you are”

LIKE. OKAY. O K A Y. pete’s journey throughout the show has been realising he IS as cool as he thinks he is. he’s not insecure about it anymore. he stands up to max! he knows his worth! and steph knows that, so she knows this won’t hurt him. steph, throughout the show, has an aversion to being earnest, ESPECIALLY when it comes to her feelings for pete—I mean hell, that’s what “if I loved you” is all about. so when she gets scared and worried about what’s gonna happen to pete, she deflects with that familiar banter while knowing it won’t actually hurt him, just as an act of self-preservation. because she CAN LIE TO HERSELF, as wiggly says. but pete, who DOES have a better handle on his emotions imo, especially as he grows throughout the show, who has thought steph is smart from the very beginning (“smarter than she thinks she is” in “cool as I think I am”), and KNOWS steph is insecure, deep down, about her intelligence, responds with that earnestness. because steph needs to believe in herself for this to work, sure, but also because if he’s going to die, steph needs to know how smart and how special and how LOVED she is.

and he subverts the dynamic they have throughout the rest of the show: steph teases, pete laughs it off because he knows she thinks he’s funny. steph makes fun of pete’s bowtie and suspenders and being micro-peter, and pete says something witty, and: “I didn’t know you were funny” “neither did I” “I like funny guys”. and at the end, with pete telling her about tap dancing: “you’re such a nerd, spankoffski. but the bow tie’s growing on me.”

steph shows her love through that teasing, because she knows that pete doesn’t take it to heart, and because it protects her OWN heart. and she expects pete to tease her back, but he doesn’t this time. he loves her. he believes in her like her dad and her teachers and basically every authority figure doesn’t, and she needs to know she is respected. (I could make a whole other post on steph’s coding in npmd as having a learning disability and being utterly failed by the adults in her life, but that’s for another time)

so pete crosses into earnestness when it counts. and steph is affirmed and respected. they literally speak each other’s language.

IT’S LIKE YOU TEST ME, BUT NOT TO BEST ME.

OH GODS PLEASE I WANT TO SEE JASON AND KYLE IN YOUR STYLE SO BADLY

GO GO NIGHTHAWKS!!

what if instead of Max killing Richie first being because he was pissed everyone had finally fully forgotten about him/abandoned his hierarchies and Richie happened to be the final straw, Max was minorly haunting all of the nerds... and just like... found Richie mourning him the most? Saw Richie crying about what they did.

Like Max said, at that point he couldn't care less that they dismembered and hid his body. What if he got positively pissed because Richie had the audacity to feel guilty and yet reap the rewards of his death. Richie was one of, if not the only, person who didn't forget Max. And Max would not only be the one to kill him, but make sure to get it in Richies head that he'll be forgotten just like Max was before brutally murdering him.

[sammos-shitpost-central]

something something parallels blah blah blah the back and forth in "high school is killing me" between pete and steph and the back and forth in "what do you say" between tom and becky
