In hindsight it's absolutely vile (positive) that the first time Ithaca is mentioned is with the lyrics:

"And Ithaca's waiting (Ithaca's waiting) My kingdom is waiting (the kingdom's waiting) Penelope's waiting (waiting) for me"

[sherbertquake56]

guys— the Ithaca saga—

is CODED

that shit HIT—

[opera-ghost]

it's immensely funny to me how andrew lloyd webber read this passage from the book and was like yeah the journey down to the phantom's lair is this really breathtaking magical gondola ride where christine is just captivated by the strange and fantastical beauty of it all (see below)

when in the novel they're both like in a rowboat in the dark with christine scared out of her mind and confused as hell while erik is paddling like he's out for an extreme day of fishing and just staring christine down for the entire duration of the journey without blinking once . like mind you his eyes quite literally GLOW in the DARK and he's just fucking staring into her soul and silently rowing and probably not even breathing like

Okay but genuinely, "How will you sleep at night?" "Next to my wife" IS THE COLDEST FUCKIN

I think one of my favorite things about UNDEAD willl always be Kaoru Not Getting The Memo.

Like.

Only one smiling on the Destruction Road album cover.

First ! Era 5 Star isn't in the UNDEAD uniform.

The only UNDEAD member to not regularly wear earrings.

His center event song and vibe are completely different from the others and without any purple in the card.

Kaoru also:

Is the only monolingual one in UNDEAD (made a separate post about it here)

Is the only UNDEAD member who couldn't play an instrument (except for middle-school-level recorder) until !! Era.

During Halloween, instead of a traditional monster like the rest of UNDEAD (vampire, werewolf, Frankenstein), he was a "sexy priest".

Is the only UNDEAD member whose center event didn't release in November (releasing in June instead).

Is the only one who didn't want to initially join/be associated with UNDEAD.

He really is the "human" one of UNDEAD and it's so funny and interesting to me.

Does it ever hit you that Martha sat down in New New York and told the Doctor that she needed his honesty more than she needed to go home and that religious music played in the background at that scene and it was almost framed as a confession, in the most religious sense, and go a little bit feral? That as early as her third episode, she was framed as his equal, equally divine, equally a doctor, able to confront him, able to make him honest, able to sympathize with him, able to abide with him? That so few companions have ever spent so much time in one time period with the Doctor (1969/1913, for example), being with him/her, not running, just staying? That for every fucking thing Ten did wrong as John Smith/after coming back to himself in Human Nature/Family of Blood, he trusted her enough to leave himself vulnerable and human in her care, because he trusted her as a Doctor, because she was just as much a Doctor as he was? That Martha was, more than any other companion of the Tenth Doctor's, his equal, that her final speech about not being second was not just talking about her not being second best to Rose but about being second best to him? That she finally understood what had been true from the moment that they met and she closed Stoker's eyes and the Doctor realized that she had not just bravery and cleverness but a kindness that he had forgotten, that Martha Jones, more than anything else, has been and always will be The Doctor?

Ik I’m like SUPER late to the Heartstopper (TV) fandom, but Nick taking an “am I gay” quiz to Orla Gartland’s “Why Am I Like This?” is a work of cinematic genius, actually

Odysseus and Achilles👯‍♂️

[lifeofamanhwareader]

Tiresias, pointing at Odysseus: a man with a trail of bodies..

Odysseus: WHO

Tiresias: 'i am pointing at him, right?'

*after Odysseus leaves*

Tiresias: hey polities, I definitely pointed at your captain, right?

Polities: yeah. Definitely.

Tiresias: and this is Athena's champion?

Polities: yeah..?

Tiresias: ...

Thinking about how happy and accepted Noel must’ve felt after his song, as he finally /finally/ got to express how he felt all his life when he was living in a small, likely homophobic town where he had pretend to be “normal” to fit in, even around his own parent(s).

And even more grateful and happy that Mischa hadn’t brushed him off or acted disgusted that he kissed him.

Even if he didn’t like some of the people (cough cough Ocean) in the group, he still probably felt so much gratitude toward them, which makes me think now that he joined the choir in an attempt to express himself in some way through song during high school. Now he got what he wished for and was responded to with positivity and encouragement rather than disgust or disappointment and his heart was soaring because of it.

This realization has made me appreciate Noel even more, now I want to go cry, thank you ride the cyclone /pos

And so @viktuuri-week starts!

Day 1: Music

I was in one hell of a time crunch to make all the illustrations because I procrastinated UuU But I took most of these works as opportunities to experiment a bit with some ideas so I had fun.

Credit to TheMoonChild on Musescore.com for the arrangement of Yuri On Ice used.

okay so since the dbda soundtrack is out now, i can finally be insufferable about the things i've noticed by putting names and timestamps to them rather than just shouting nonsensically about them. this is excellent :D

as i already saw someone else point out, there is a section of running from hell / i'm in love with you beginning at roughly the 3:40 mark that has also played two other times in the show...

first, very quietly, at the end of episode 6 when edwin tried to confess the first time, and...

again in episode 8, when charles and edwin hugged (it's included in esther's origin / a new deal on the soundtrack)

i am Looking At This with very big eyes rn. blake neely and murat selçuk i am in your walls what does this mean

BUT ALSO. there is another section. that drives me just about insane. the only place i can find it in the SOUNDTRACK is in accepting being dead at the 3:10 mark... and it plays over the scene of charles dying/becoming a ghost in charles' flashback to edwin saving him at the start of episode 7. but it actually plays one other time in the show...

over edwin comforting charles and them hugging for the first time at the end of episode 5.

what does it MEANNNNNNNNN
