Rebecca | Mrs Danvers through the years

[alicesbread]

I once found a video of Susan singing one of my absolute favourite songs (the winner takes it all) and I straight up had an eargasm. I am now reuniting all the SRD simps and ABBA stans.

I love this so much

POV: You're watching Rebecca the Musical with your boyfriend and Susan Rigvava-Dumas is literally wearing Rebecca's dress as she burns down Manderley.

Go for it girl 😎🔥🔥

Drawing inspired by the fic of @aliesafenlock "Her Heart is Fit for Home"!!

I love this fic so much and who doesn't need a bit of Susan!Danny in their life? And here's a close up because I'm kinda proud of their expressions:

The snippet that got me:

“Do you dance, Mrs. Danvers?”

Her reverie broken, the housekeeper scoffed at the unexpected question. “Who would want to dance with a withered-up old woman like me?”

“First of all, you are neither old nor withered,” Mrs. de Winter countered. “And secondly, I would! Very much,” she added with a smile.

“Madam.” Mrs. Danvers was taken aback. “Surely you’ve got better things to do with your time.”

“If my memory serves, I did not get to dance at the ball,” the young woman pointed out reasonably, “so you owe me at least one dance, Mrs. Danvers.”

I can't be seriously considering this, the housekeeper thought as she prepared a polite refusal, but her voice caught in her throat as she took in Mrs. de Winter looking at her expectantly. Her eyes were sparkling with hope, her hand extended in a silent invitation, and Mrs. Danvers felt her resolve evaporate. Suddenly, she couldn’t bear the thought of disappointing Mrs. de Winter today as she had done in the past.

“All right then,” she allowed softly. “Perhaps just this once.”

Mrs. Danvers took the young woman’s outstretched hand with some trepidation, expecting it to feel awkward and ungainly. She became acutely aware of how comfortably their bodies fit together as her free hand rested on Mrs. de Winter’s waist. Mrs. Danvers led instinctively and was relieved to find she still knew her way around a slow dance. Her initial reluctance gave way to a quiet joy as she watched her companion’s eyes gleam with delight. With every step they held each other a little closer, and the housekeeper began feeling light-headed.

The record wound down and their movements slowed, then finally stopped. They stood quietly in a gentle embrace, neither of them willing to break the spell and lose their closeness. In the silence, the air between them became charged with expectation. Mrs. de Winter lifted her eyes to study her companion’s face, finding it transformed from its rigid, severe beauty to looking achingly vulnerable. The young woman was suddenly overcome with a wave of affection so intense, she had to reach out and place her palm against Mrs. Danvers’ cheek.

Found on the Hungarian internet: a video of Susan Rigvava-Dumas at a Halloween concert in Budapest, singing "No Good Deed" from Wicked, wearing an Elphaba hat. (Apologies for the video quality.)

For @neednottoneed, @callmekamel, and everyone else who loves Susan as much as I do. 💖

[callmekamel]

I don’t know if you welcome draeing prompts, but if you do, might I suggest Danny with her hair down or Danny with her hair braided? (Like you would when you go to sleep.)

While I’m here — your art is gorgeous!

uhhh @jon-withnoh didn't say which Danny so, the OG and the Newest then

Don't mind me at this point I just unapologetically reblog anything with SRD in it

Alone in the office at 8am listening to the 1997 jazz album Elmau Stride Project featuring Susan Rigvava-Dumas. It’s a glamorous life.

[alicesbread]

Okay but I remember a post of someone saying Susan played Madame Giry... like what??? It fits perfectly, but is this real chat? Was that person just hallucinating? Cause I wanna see that, yes or yes. Btw Mrs Danvers and Madame Giry are same thing different format.

17, 19, and 71 for the top 3 asks!

17. top 3 OTPs

Gelphie!!! maybe a bit basic what with wicked (and gelphie along with it) becoming mainstream this year because of the movie but truly i love Elphaba and Glinda together so much it might be a little unhealthy. they're just so perfect for each other they match the other so well at every level, the video "Wicked is Gay (and here's why)" by wickedlyqueer on here explains it so well and to quote them directly "simply put, Elphaba and Glinda are opposite sides of the same coin". also they literally are the resolutions to the other's character arch I mean COME ON. anyway I love them so much :))

Danbecca!!! brought to you by my current main hyper fixation :D and I know, maybe sometimes they're a little toxic and maybe sometimes the dynamics are a little fucked up but you know it's my fucked up OTP you don't have to like it if you don't want to, I won't make you (not directly being said to you who sent the ask just in general) also I may or may not be writing a fluffy modern AU centering around them so I might be a bit biased. but besides that yes they have their issues but I think their relationship and the dynamics within it are so interesting, both reading about them in fics other people have written and now writing them and exploring that myself. so just yeeee they're great (:

Danbea/Beavers (?) slightly undecided ship name aside I know that this maybe isn't the most popular ship within the fandom and that some think they're too different but to me that's what makes it so interesting. since they're so different, they have the potential to clash which means: MORE ANGST (which I love) and it just adds to the dynamics and makes everything so much more layered and I am nothing if not a slut for characters/ships that have so many layers they make you want to dissect them under a microscope. also Danny and Bea are some of my favorite characters in the story so just put them together and boom true love (at least to me reading about them together) :)

19. top 3 characteristics you love about yourself (they aren't in order specifically but these are the top three)

my bluntness, I legit have no filter and if I ever had one it's hanging on by a thread. it's just so funny when I tell it to someone how it is and they're shocked that I was so like "this is your pile of crap and now you have to deal with it" sort of thing without any sort of sugarcoating lol. also according to my bsf this is also something she loves about me too yeee :D

the way I always manage to put my own spin on things, like once I had an assignment in my English class where we had to pick a song and analyze it for the tone and mood stuff like that. so me being me went up to my teacher and asked if I could do mine on "Sie ergibt sich nicht" from Rebecca and he was like "as long as the explanation for the lyrics is in English and you put the English translation, sure go for it" so yeah love that for me lol.

my kindness. a lot of people have told me that some small thing I did like just asking if they were ok or if they needed a hug or wanted to talk made their day when they were having a rough time and I love that I can do that and make others happy because I love to make people happy it just brings me so much joy :))

71. top 3 songs of this month

the Whitney Houston version of I will always love you from Dolly Parton but specifically Susan Rigvava-Dumas' cover of it. I have listened to it so many times it is on all of my yt mixes and idk what is is about this specific version but it just scratches an itch in my brain like no other. so yeah definitely up there for this month.

nichts nichts gar nichts from Elisabeth (2012 20th anniversary revival cast rec. specifically) I just love Annemieke's voice in this song and the song itself I just think is incredible, it's a beautiful song and it's one of my favorites from Elisabeth and it's been on repeat all the time lately.

die lieben verwandten from Rebecca, which I know is a bit random because in the grand scheme of things the song isn't all that relevant or plot moving but I just love it. it's such a fun song and I especially love kerstin bald's version, where right before she starts singing there's this little "ahh :D" she lets out and I just think it's so cute and adds to the song, and I just love the character of Beatrice so yeee.

Thanks for the ask dear :))
