Young Snyder raises so many questions bc like, how did he get into that position of power so young? What made him want to do this? What are his motivations?? Does he have family? History with the newsies? Its kinda made me realise how little we know about snyder

Godspeed to Ross Dawes yesterday handling the questions about "what do the cast/crew think about such and such current strike" 🫡🫡🫡

[nightwonder7]

Hey :D! I’ve been a fan of yours for almost a year or two and just wanted to tell u that your art style is great :]!!! I especially love your IDV art and comics, it’s so silly/pos

By any chance, do you have IDV OCs :O? Just wondering abt it if you do !!

FGHJSAKFhjkfdhsjs thank you so much!! ;A; I'm really flattered to hear!! >/////////< 💖💖💖

I don't have any IDV OCs, but I did sketch some of my other OCs in the IDV style a long time ago.

Maybe I'll do some refined versions some day. Either imagining them as characters in the game and come up with in-game abilities, or make a crossover essence mock-up where each of them are a skin and assign them to canon characters.

Day 4 of @freightappreciationweek !!! The stinky :)

I've really grown to appreciate this grimy boy and I hold him so tenderly like a little kittycat <3

A recent headcanon I came up with is that he's the yards best Guitar Hero player. He also claims to know how to play an actual guitar (he's not very good).

[mitjalovse]

Koop are what genre? I mean, they are one of these outfits you wouldn't be surprised to hear on your usual chill out compilations, though they also don't belong there completely. To be honest, most of these groups are somehow considered to be electronica despite them sounding quite organic or even being such. For instance, The Herbaliser do sound different than Koop, yet you could see them forming a double bill with the latter. They both take a certain sound from the past and they augment that with the modern technology, yet they don't overdo this principle by going towards the uncanny as some of their peers. The tune in the link proves my point, there's nothing too much in the piece, you're not feeling something is off.

I love the almost comical amount of Flat-Top pictures compared to other characters shfjsjfj

stex month day 13: flat top!

favorite actors: SO many. ross dawes is my forever fave but i also love delano williamsen, dennis courtney, luuk hartog, todd lester, mark davis, richard mylan, marcel brauneis, and paul treacy! plus whoever played him in tuacahn, i've never been able to find a cast list </3

i think a lot of actors tend to play him pretty one-note so i love when people balance his jerk asshole side with his softer caring side! plus he's always fun comedic relief, shoutout to ross for smacking himself in the face with his own brick. and how can we forget dennistop's goofy helium laugh. love him

favorite songs/scenes: watching him mess around in freight and the blues is SO fun he's so funny <33 the lil spin and suspender snap paul does is adorable, also love him bothering this poor random woman in the audience with his brick. i mentioned ross above but him climbing around on the set like a jungle gym is so so cute!! also tuachan flats getting super excited to see rusty and waving at him!!

love literally all of his and dustin's interactions too, esp when he waves off the rockies for teasing him ough. their little goofy solo in freight!! <3

AND ofc all of his and rusty's interactions! him being a little shit to poppa and rusty jerking him back by his couplers....peak sibling behavior. love him giving rusty his helmet back after he gets beat up, esp how ross does it bc he doesn't tell him to give up!! he still believes in him!! brb exploding

him and poppa/momma are rly fun too, flat top is definitely their least favorite child but they still care about each other <3

honorable mentions to dinah giving him a cheek kiss too it's so cute

OH wait one last thing. when he hears about cb's plan and he looks SO disappointed in greaseball bc that's him finding out that his hero isn't who he thought he was and UGH. it's so good

wait i lied one more. him and rocky messing around during the megamix and throwing the brick to each other <3

favorite costumes: london!! oh my god all the little details are so good like he's quintessentially 80s london punk and it shows. his little socks! the steel toes on the skates!! the bigass frankenstein bolt collar <3 i'm especially fond of his earlier fluffy black & silver wig, it's adorable

i also loooveee the 3d glasses makeup but the bit where he just had graffiti scribbled all over his face is so funny like "hey what should we put on him to show that he's rebellious?" "just write SEX + DRUGS" "ok got it"

also brick on a chain my beloved <3 AND in late london where his belt was made of wood planks to show that he's a flatcar!! so good

i also have a fondness for on ice flats. his stupid nail boots. and tuacahn bc i respect the decision to put him in a crop top and chaps

favorite ships/friendships: flatdust is my train otp i love them i love them i love them <333 they have it all....friends to lovers....sunshine/grumpy....introvert/extrovert....good stuff. their friendship is so sweet to me bc they're total opposites and yet! special shoutout to that one boot where it genuinely looks like they're about to start making out onstage

i love him and rusty too, they're absolutely siblings to me and wind each other up all the time but they still care for each other! also him and cb in a frenemy situation bc cb thinks it's funny to push his buttons

his hero worship on greaseball is also really interesting bc it ties into his whole self-discovery arc imo

headcanons: he's physically the weakest of the freight and he absolutely has a chip on his shoulder about it </3 i hc him as a bulkhead so engines tend to dislike him too due to him being prone to derailing at speed, so he's desperate to prove that is he is cool and strong actually!! he's also like 5'4" without the boots lmao little guy

he's scared of thunderstorms but won't admit to it so dustin will hold his hand and pretend that he's the one who's scared ;-; he also helps dustin out in his garden sometimes but he sucks at it so he just gets to stand there and be moral support. guy who doesn't get the concept of seeds and will just rip up whole flowers for dustin to plant

also very rarely smiles bc he doesn't like his tooth gap :( dustin thinks it's cute tho

unpopular opinion: flat top is such an interesting character bc like. he does NOTHING and yet he has one of the strongest character arcs in the whole show! it's all about him figuring out who he is and where he belongs and it's so fascinating to watch unfold in the background. him racing with rusty in the final would've been such a good culmination of that

also i don't think this is unpopular but on my knees begging him to be punk again like that's his whole point

anyway sorry for writing an entire essay i'm normal about him.

Updates for third period

Akira Schmid will replace Nico Daws to start the third period.

Palat-Hischier-Bratt to start the third period.

Third period

Nico Hischier has been deployed for almost - what it seems like - every faceoff tonight.

He's taken 23. Next most is Haula at 14.

Luke Hughes just cut across Dostal's crease trying to take the puck to the net. He runs over Dostal and a scrum ensues in the corner with Timo Meier also in the middle of it.

Luke was actualy slashed as he was going to the net, which started the collision course with Dostal.

Ross Johnston has some angry words for Luke

#NJDevils  look to be going back to the PP.

Colin Miller on power play duties for #NJDevils , he replaces Nemec

Going back to the PP.

#NJDevils  need two.

Toffoli! #NJDevils  within one with 2:57 to play!

Timeout devils

They're not without their chances here... #NJDevils  pressing in the final minute for the equalizer

#NJDevils  getting a penalty shot because Vatrano just pushed the net off on purpose.

Jack Hughes is going to take the penalty shot.

There's 2.1 seconds left (penalty shot aside).

#NJDevils  down a goal

Devils lost…..

[whistlingstarlight]

Favourite interactions with the Newsies UK cast I've had:

- Making Matthew Duckett laugh during the bows by lifting my crutch at the same time as him

- During my second visit Matthew explained his personal backstory for Crutchie to me, which was v cool

- Mukeni Nel recognising me from stagedoor the night before and making eye contact with me throughout the show

- Impressing Alex Christian by knowing all of King Of New York (he saw me mouthing the words)

- Ryan Kopel's excitement at learning about the real David Simmons

- Making Ross Dawes smile telling him about the other things I know him from

- All the actors I've given art to, they all looked so happy with it

2023's StEx Appreciation Month!

Day 16: Flat-Top the Brick Truck

Ross Dawes in the first picture, Dennis Spee in the second picture, and Michael Eborall in the third picture.

Favorite Actor: James Marshall (Bochum, 2015-2018) and Delano Willemsem (Bochum update, 2020-2022)

Face Claim/Voice Claim: Michael Eborall (face) and Jams Marshall (voice)

Favorite Song/Scene: After Rusty is beaten up by the Gang or mocked by CB and he tells him to give up.

Favorite Costume: I like all of his different costumes but I think he should go back to having an actual flat-top hairstyle like he did in the Original London production.

Favorite Ship: Flat-Top x Duvay

Headcanons: I think he may be bi.

Unpopular Opinion: None at all!
