I fucking adore In the Hall of the Mountain King because it literally sounds like it's transitioning from "teehee omg what if we get caught lol" to "holy shit guys I think we got caught" and I think that is fucking hilarious.
I made an Hall of the mountain king edit in honor of this batshit insane post (for which i may or may not be partially responsible, too) by @one-time-i-dreamt, enjoy :)
Throwback to when I replied to Razzbowski on Twitter telling him I compiled comments from a comment section under a youtube video where people pondered Springtrap's peepee whereabouts
“In the Hall of the Mountain King” and “Flight of the Bumblebee” are star-crossed lovers and mirror images and two armies at war and the sun-and-moon and a child rebelling against a parent and a divorced couple and a heretic rebelling against God but most importantly they are Polar Opposite Twins.
Or alternatively, "Emma and Chase's lore getting progressively more unhinged for almost three minutes"! Are they terrible for each other? Yes, but their banter can get pretty fun for how ridiculous it can get XD (Big spoilers for season one of the reboot + a pinch of season 2 so watch at your discretion)
Video description: footage of Emma and Chase from Total Drama Island 2023 set to the song "In the Hall of the Mountain King". Warning: the volume gets a bit louder towards the final climax of the song.
ICYMI on Insta, a special announcement from yours truly 😘
Transcript below cut!
Hi everyone. After Painted Devils came out, some people claimed it ended the way it did just to make you buy the sequel, and I found that hurtful. I would never do anything like that to make you buy the next book. In fact, THIS is what I’m doing to make you buy the next book.
By now you’ve hopefully seen me teasing The Fallow Year on instagram. It’s a series of ten interconnected-ISH short stories that take place between the end of Painted Devils and the beginning of Holy Terrors. They alternate between Vanja and Emeric’s POVs as they both spend some time… working on themselves, let’s put it that way. And I will release one story… for every 100 preorders at independent bookstores, or 200 preorders total, whichever we hit first. International and subscription box orders will also count. On November 25th, I will share the link to the Google Form where you can submit your preorder receipt, and once we reach the goal, I will post the first story on the people’s platform… AO3.
I’m sure you’ll have some questions, so stay tuned for a follow-up video where I’ll try to get ahead of the most obvious ones! In the meantime, feel free to curse god for making me like this. Byeeeeeeeee!
My best au is actually my 2020s social media au in which Maglor becomes a youtuber after he gets sick of lamenting by the shore and subsequently gets cancelled for rping as historic war criminal Makalaurë Kanafinwë.
