#s: ride the cyclone

[thefacelesssmile]

Happy (belated) birthday @sewers-headmates!! Decided to make you something since you’ve been such an inspiration for us making this blog. You don’t have to do anything with them, of course, since this wasn’t a request, but I hope you like it anyway. - Darkwood

(,,uhuh tw. brief mentions/implications of s/a.)

DO YOU FUCKING KNOW WHAT ISNT TALKED ABOUT ENOUGH THAT INFURIATES ME??

Constance's arc in RTC. Literally nobody talks about it and waters her down to just being the nice mom friend™️ which completely undermines the arc she goes through of both

1. Reclaiming her innocence. Throughout the musical there's a LOT of moments that can represent that arc up until sugar cloud

2. How she wasn't happy with her life and didn't realize the good of it until her dying moments. plagued by that thought until she reaches true happiness now knowing she had a good life in sugar cloud

GGGGOD sometimes the blatant undermining of the arcs each character has (,,excluding Jane. I don't think she ever really had an arc; just. Left in despair only knowing her death and the mourning of something she can't remember, wondering if god itself had abandoned her) me so INFURRIATED LIKE RAGHAJRHRRRUJS THERE'S SO MUCH ANALYSIS POTENTIAL AND THEYRE ALL SO WELL WRITTEN TO BE RELATEABLE IN SOME SHAPE OR FORM

Connie was not all just sunshine & rainbows she was going through the mental WRINGER and struggling with her self-loathing & depression up until her death. She probably still dealt with it throughout the musical — now being plagued by even more secrets to keep & the self loathing of what happened just three hours before. (,,example is. the one scene after Ocean goes "We all died virgins" & Karnak pressures Constance a bit. God that scene makes me so ☹️)

She doesn't like. Fully reclaim her innocence & happiness until sugar cloud — which I like to personally think her letting her hair down is representation of her slowly starting to let go of it all. Just. Truly starting to feel happy, like a little kid again. Realizing she had a good life and appreciating what she had now that she's gone. What she went through doesn't define her. Therefore, she doesn't let it hold her back. Letting that inner child out for whats probably the first time in a LONG time.

And I think that's just. A really beautiful thing to her character that gets ignored a lot; which to me is one of the more relatable aspects of her character. Not realizing how much you love everything until something bad happens. From the smallest things like the feeling of getting into bed after a long day— your body finally relaxing after throbbing with pain & exhaustion all day, or even just seeing the smile on a family/friend's face after not seeing them for a while— to the more specific things such as seeing people being happy around you. Happy to be with you. All while knowing what you've gone through doesn't define who you are; letting that little kid inside of you out into the world to truly feel the warmth of the sun.

God sorry I just absolutely love Constance jawbreaker/sugar cloud had me BAWLING the first few times I heard it and I'm not prepared to sob over it again when I see RTC in february,, anyways THIS FUCKASS FANDOM NEEDS TO STOP UNDERMINING ARCS AND REALLY ANALYZE THE CHARACTERS MORE RAGGHHHHHHH

Jane Doe / Penny Lamb's themes of identity are so interesting to me. like. who you were before has been crushed, and is dead and buried. You're everything and nothing at the same time. Lost in the dark after being thrown in there without a guiding hand. You never had a life to remember.

Yet, that former identity is still truly alive. Clawing it's way out from inside your chest. You are still you. You and that former identity remain as the same beating heart. Just torn out and buried somewhere you can't find it just yet.

It's your choice to dig up that heart, put it back inside you, and get closure. It's your choice to develop a new heart, and create a new sense of self.

Why be left in death when you can rise from the ashes and start anew?

Ezra Lamb also has some interesting themes of identity & how you view life as a whole as well! Like.

You live. You die. That's it, right? No purpose to it, no meaning. Like a puppet show played over and over until the performers finally get tired of it. So, the best option is to just. Live as yourself. The universe is indifferent to how you are, so why worry about what you need to be? Just be what you want to be.

There's an pessimistic side to it, just as there is a more hopeful, optimistic side. If you have no purpose or meaning, why not make your own? The "universe" or "higher ups" can't do shit about it. Who cares who or what you are? Enjoy the life you have while it lasts. Everyone's in the dark, right? It's your choice on what you do with your life while you have it.

If you're nothing, then make yourself into something.

Why be left in a life with no meaning when you can create your own meaning?

Do I realize the Lambs may or may not be narrative foils? Yeah. Am I insane about it? Yeah. I'm not normal about their contrasting themes of existential & nihilism (of many forms), along with some themes of rememberance & identity. I might be reaching a LOT with this but chat please hear me out

I love analyzing shit until it's literal atoms and adding more characterization to characters if you can't tell. It will happen again

[janeya]

ok yeah. her
