#this production sadly didn’t pass the door test haha

[personinthepalace]

I saw a community production of Legally Blonde the Musical over the weekend! Will share my rambling thoughts below the cut:

so I judge lbtm productions by THE DOOR(TM) bc door discourse so let’s talk about that first:

so I've been analyzing the show’s sizzle reel a bit too much haha, but from the staging I figured that there wouldn't be a door during the ballad. I said this to my friend but then she pointed out that the program literally says elle's door so I got excited

however I was right and there was no door :(

so what happened instead was that they wheeled out elle's desk and bed and luggage for her room. (oh and before that they turned on little lights that made it looked like a starry night while elle was singing the first part - very pretty). emmett comes "into" elle's room with the two champagne glasses, they sing, she cries, elle then takes her suitcase and exits through the main stage doors (these doors are the same ones used for harvard, callahan's office, courtroom, paulette's salon etc - it’s the doors seen in the video above)

so we have emmett in elle's room and elle out of her room

emmett sings *what about love* and THEN elle comes out of one of the side doors (like closet doors) and starts singing. so I guess she is still outside?? very hard to tell

but there are some steps so elle is singing from the top step, emmett on the bottom

and by the end of the song, elle has come down the steps and elle and emmett sing the ending back to back (but not touching each other)

also I would like to note that emmett tries to touch elle (to stop her from walking away) but elle flinches which I thought was a good touch

so yeah tldr: no physical door (but elle did walk out some doors), emmett is singing from inside elle's room(?), but at least he didn't confess his love to her face so yay?

——————————

now from the beginning:

there was a lot of the barbie movie soundtrack playing during the preshow haha

so they definitely updated the show to the present day - there was a selfie circle light thing, everyone had iphones and ipads but I feel like they updated it in a very organic way. didn't feel forced or fake which sadly I feel like happens in a few updated versions (say regents park). also the ways they updated certain moments was quite clever - will get into it later

so the beginning has the girls doing the tiktok dance in front of the light circle for elle and then there was no candle lighting instead they said something along the lines of "find your light"

the store manager is a guy

okay clever modern day update! elle gives her phone to one of the restaurant customers so that they could film the "proposal". but then after seeing that warner didn't propose yet, she took her phone back

at "does look like the face of harvard law", the admissions guy is addressing the audience! there was a pause so we all shouted yeah! and he looked at us like we lost our minds haha

the admissions guy saying *ethnic movement* was followed by a pause and a big gasp from the audience for some reason

there was no marching band just cheer leaders and there were two guys in skirts

oh one of the guys has a character called kiki later (the gay guy in paulette's salon) and he is basically the best background character - he had the best outfits and omigod walking around in heels and later wore the cutest boots. yeah best background character

emmett is now a class of 2019. also he hasn't slept since 2016 (it should have been more haha)

aaron tries to shake enid's hand when she introduces herself but then she gets very enid and then he just backs away haha

bruiser watches rupaul drag race. oh yeah they had actual dogs on stage! very small very cute

elle pulls out a hydroflask and an E statue thing to put on her desk

emmett didn't sing along during blood in the water which I really like

paulette has a playlist instead of a cd. vivienne came into the salon and paid kiki for a gift bag of sorts

elle has a hello kitty toy and emmett threatened to throw it in the trash haha

no more redbull they drink celsius now. also I love that they drink from the same can

another clever update! elle texts warner during chip on your shoulder. so things like *and grandma bootsie!* is sent as like a second text. (we can hear the text sound). and the christmas message is a voice memo

oh yeah and when elle introduces emmett to paulette, she takes him by the hand and walks him towards paulette which I thought was cute

omigod so during the part where elle and paulette try to communicate behind emmett's back - paulette holds the shampoo bottle like it's a dick and we all lost it hahaha

after elle gives callahan her resume, she walks towards emmett and circle around him and they're both silenting squealing and then elle walks off stage squealing haha

they did not have a handshake during chip on my shoulder. nor did emmett do any silly dance

so much better - callahan sends out the results by email so everyone is looking at their phone

also I didn't catch if warner gave his phone to someone to film or someone was just filming on their own phone but someone was filming warner's proposal to vivienne

emmett was on stage for most of so much better and when he left with the rest of the people he gave elle two thumbs up

brooke now has an app, callahan does not speak twitter or tiktok

brooke was doing the long jumprope at one point - I forget what it's called like two people are holding the rope and brooke is jumping

emmett: we are here to whip up your legal defense *does some awkward dancing* it was very funny haha

okay so emmett was wearing his bag during this whole time and during take it like a man, he gives it to elle and then she wears it for the rest of the number (I just love that addition haha)

also this emmett wears glasses and it took me a while to notice/realize but after his makeover, he no longer wears glasses for the rest of the show

this kyle had a lot of kyle swagger haha. he walks through the audience, he freaking adjusts his belt, holds the package like *that* obviously, bends over a lot - a lot of kyle haha

and then when he comes back for his stylist, and elle is like do it - elle and paulette look at each other, nod, and then jump and did a chest bump - I was totally not expecting that and everyone was laughing at that haha

during the bend and snap scene, elle says that it works on straight and bi men

the news reporter reporting the trial is now replace with the delta nus watching the news coverage on a phone (and the reporter is a voice over) - I thought it was a nice addition!

my friend said that a fun update that they should have done was paulette and kyle taking an uber instead of an ambulance to the hospital haha

when elle tests the bend and snap on nikkos, there is a guard standing next to him and the guard’s eyes bulges out (he reacts haha) every time elle does it (and nikkos doesn’t) and it was very funny

I didn't notice it but my friend pointed out that elle doesn't sing during gay or european. I figured that it was so she can rest for a song. my friend said that it's bc elle already knows that she's right and doesn't need to reason it out like everyone else. I guess both can be true haha

I completely forgot to look out for carlos during the song but there was no need bc he wasn't sitting with the cast - he busted in through the stage doors haha

my friend said it would have been funny if carlos was sitting in the audience and honestly now I want that to happen in a production now hahaha

also carlos and nikkos are both dressed in black

callahan actually pushes elle against the wall (side of the stage) when he kisses her - it is like a full on make out but then she pushes him off her and then slaps him

warner walks and sees them kissing and then immediately walks out. vivienne stays long enough to see the slap

okay talked about the ballad already haha

when emmett says *and I don’t have to hit on interns professor*, elle’s dad rises a bit but elle’s mom pulls him down and they talk - really like that detail. gotta love parents concerned for their daughter

oh instead of it being just like apprentice, the delta nus call brooke a girlboss

the scene of the crime now comes with pink caution tape - very funny seeing them pulling it across the front of the stage haha

the court stenographer is a guy! The way he sang back *omigod we rock!* was very funny haha

during find my way, callahan comes out and glares at emmett when it’s said that his wife hired emmett to handle their messy divorce

paulette gives her cards to audience members in the front row!

elle is in a pink graduation gown

elle gets the ring from paulette and then proposes to emmett. he spins her around

curtain call: they all stood in one line and sang while doing different poses

overall it was great!! better than we expected haha - my friend and I have our nitpicks haha but we had a great time :) (main letdown was no door haha) also yay for filipino elle :)

also! some random thoughts that we had from watching this production:

- how did warner get the internship? like he didn't work as hard as the other people (we're assuming). we now figure that it might be that warner's dad called in a favor

- callahan's wife getting a divorce - that means that elle and emmett must have told her? And they must have reported him to the school so did harvard fire him? does he still have his law firm? my friend thinks that he is a slimy enough lawyer - that he got to keep both positions. I like to think that he got fired

- patrick page would make a great callahan

Scars You Can’t See - Chapter 3

Chapter Title: Under the Radar

Word count: about 2400 words (sorry it’s short)

(I’ve made one minor word choice change)

Note: I’m renaming brands so that the story flow works better- Chatter is this universe’s version of Twitter.

First | Previous | Next

Rouge had gone out undercover early in the morning, finding disguises for the team. Shadow hadn’t accompanied her and instead elected to sleep in, feeling ridiculously exhausted after the events of the last two days. He’d slept so well last night, and he refused to let it go now. So he had mumbled a drowsy “okay” as Rouge left, before falling back into bed and passing out for another hour.

He jolted awake to the sound of the door slamming open and a voice calling, “I brought breakfast!”

The smell of baked goods quickly filled the air, pulling Shadow out of bed. He snatched a glazed donut out of the box she’d set on the table, muttering a quick “Thanks, Rouge,” before he ate it in two bites. He wasn’t a heathen who spoke with food in his mouth, after all. Unlike a certain blue hedgehog.

“So, what did you find?” he asked curiously, noticing that she had multiple bags weighing her down. 

“Well...I’m glad you asked. I got us disguises!” she replied, pulling out three cans of paint. “Omega, you’re getting a paint job.”

Omega immediately unplugged himself and shuffled rapidly to the other side of the room. “Negative. That is not an appropriate action.”

Rouge rolled her eyes. “Tails has a schematic saved for you in his lab, complete with a color palette. You’ll be alright.” She held up the cans- dark blue, white, and gold. “They’re not even that bad, see?”

“I suppose….fine. Why is this even necessary?” Omega asked, peeved.

“Well….you won’t be going into stores much- you’re too recognizable- but we should still probably disguise you so people don’t realize who you are at a distance.”

“What will you be doing?” he said sharply.

“I’m glad you asked!” she replied, pulling out a box of red fur dye. “I thought it was about time I looked a little more like you both, so….”

She produced a classic Team Dark outfit- all black and red, combat boots, and some golden punk earrings. 

“Time to be edgy, it seems.” Rouge mused.

“And….what will I do?” Shadow asked nervously.

He didn’t really want to know what was in that bag, but knew he couldn’t look like himself either.

Rouge had another box of dye on the bed now- the same shade as his fur. 

“That’s not going to be helpful…” he said flatly. 

The bat smirked. “It will be on your stripes.”

Shadow grasped one of his quills instinctively. “Don’t you dare!”

“Oh, I do dare.” Rouge replied, advancing on him.

The makeover session began. 

Rouge agreed to start with herself, since Omega was still hidden in a corner and Shadow looked absolutely horrified. She rubbed the dye all over her white fur- at least the parts that could be seen- and put on her clothing once it had set. The whole process took her about two hours, and when it was done, she looked like a completely new person. “And...some grey contacts for a final touch,” she added, putting in the contacts.

Even Shadow would’ve found it difficult to convince someone that the person in front of him was Rouge. He admitted that the disguises were useful, but that didn’t mean he had to like them.

“Alright, Shadow, you next.” she said firmly. “You’ll need some time to let your quills settle, so I’ll work on Omega then.”

They headed into the bathroom, and she put two bottles on the counter next to him. 

“...what does that other one do?”

Rouge sat down and looked at him. “I’ll tell you everything I’m going to do right now, okay? I’m dying your stripes black, and that includes the ones on your arms and legs.”

Shadow sighed reluctantly. “What else?”

“I have some brown contacts here for you, a pair of fake glasses, and some new clothes. I got you some different boots too- don’t worry, I’ll cut the soles out and put them over your skates. You still need to wear those.”

“Good.” the hybrid said shortly.

“Now for the hard part…” She held up the second bottle. “I’m sorry, Shadow, this is going to burn a little. It’s a relaxer. All it means is that your quills won’t stick up at the back anymore.”

“Forever?!” Shadow gasped, baring his teeth in an unconscious snarl.

Rouge shook her head quickly. “No! No, once we’re all done with this, you can trim your quills and they’ll slowly start to get back to normal.”

He shook his head. “Is all this really necessary?”

“Shadow, we don’t know how long it’s going to take for G.U.N. to react once we’ve got the videos. It could be weeks, even months before the process starts. We need to be safe.”

Shadow winced. “Fine.”

Once Rouge had put in the different chemicals, she had him sit down and relax while she painted Omega. It burned, though, so he mostly spent his time trying very hard not to touch his quills.

Setting up an old piece of cloth she’d bought at a secondhand store, she began to paint over Omega’s logo with dark blue. Red gave way to gold, and yellow was replaced by white. She painted a small golden theta symbol on his front strip of metal, finalizing his new name. 

Shadow got up after she’d finished and washed the products out of his quills, refusing to look in the mirror until he was done. Cringing as he shut the water off, he glanced up.

Oh, chaos.

He looked like Sonic.

His quills hung down his back, their signature red stripes completely gone. Shadow stared at his reflection weakly, shocked by the difference a couple of chemicals could make. Though he supposed he shouldn’t be- Professor Gerald had taught him a lot when he was younger, and he still remembered some of it. Thankfully.

He took the rest of his disguise into the bathroom, refusing to look at Rouge. With his new clothing on, his glasses, and some eyeliner to cover his red eye markings, he looked like a completely different person. 

Shadow hadn’t put in the contacts yet, and he looked into his own eyes sadly. It was such a silly thing to be upset about, and yet….

Rouge came in, looking worried. “It’s only for a little while, Shadow.” she reminded him. “Soon, you’ll be back to looking like yourself again. I promise.”

He put the contacts in and looked at the stranger in the mirror. Shadow grimaced. “I look like an idiot- here, let me see that hair tie.”

Pulling his straightened quills back into a ponytail, he looked at his reflection again. He narrowed his eyes. Tested out a smirk. Pulled up his hood. “It’s….a little like trying new clothes on, I suppose.” he remarked. “I can handle it, for now.” 

Shadow turned to walk out the door. “Let’s see how long Omega can stand still and watch his paint dry before he tries to launch a missile at the window.” 

Rouge laughed loudly. “Haha! I bet he’ll do two.”

…

The team decided to test out their new identities in the afternoon and see if anyone would recognize them. Omega was still going to stay in the car- sulking, since he wanted to see inside the strip mall they’d stopped at- while Rouge and Shadow shopped around a little. 

Nobody seemed to realize who they were at all. The two of them walked into a convenience store and grabbed some food, wandering through the aisles, but nobody said “Hey, look, isn’t that Rouge?” or “That looks like Shadow the Hedgehog!” or anything like that.

If anything, it was pretty interesting to see how normal, non-heroes went about their daily lives. As well as how much special treatment they’d been afforded before.

The cashiers, instead of looking interested, mostly seemed bored or tired. No one in the stores seemed to give them a second glance- except for suspicious looks at the sight of two teenagers hanging around for a long time. Rouge in particular got some looks that seemed to say don’t you dare try anything here. Shadow felt a little defensive, but was convinced (by Rouge) not to snap at the people making assumptions about them.

Rouge was lingering in the makeup aisle while Shadow stood around, making his way down from the adrenaline high of the last couple days. The hoodie he wore felt heavy on his body, and he blinked tiredly- the store’s overly powerful heating system gave him a warm, lazy feeling. Shadow stifled a yawn, smirking at some of the snarkier greeting cards on the shelves.

“We should probably go- that woman keeps glaring at me.” he muttered as Rouge came over to him, feeling a little annoyed.

“Sounds good to me, but could you help me decide on a lipstick color?” she said quietly. “I keep on thinking my fur is white still, and red won’t work on red.”

Shadow frowned critically, looking her outfit up and down. Tapping the golden shimmery one, he said, “You’re not wearing a lot of that. It’ll work with your color scheme.”

He’d discovered color coordination and planning outfits early on with Rouge as a friend. Shadow had never needed to worry about such things on the ARK, but here he knew more than he’d ever expected to learn about the color wheel, matching clothing, and accents...among other things.

They looked in a couple of the other stores, mainly clothing shops, but Rouge let Shadow spend a while in a little bookstore as well. He looked at one book in particular: one on a human who’d leaked an incredible amount of inside information to the press about the government and some of its agencies. 

He frowned, reading about how the man had to flee the country as a result of his actions- even though he’d done the right thing. The hybrid didn’t like the idea of having to live the rest of his life in hiding…..but he supposed it was better than the alternative…...

Rouge took the book out of his hands suddenly, prompting a quick growl from him. “I was reading that, you know.”

“No, you weren’t. You were staring off into space and looking depressed again.” the bat retorted. “And as your friend, I refuse to let that happen.”

Shadow sighed. “Fine. Is there any place else to go, or are we heading back to the motel?”

“Well….I did have one more place in mind, but it’s a ways away.” Rouge said. “You up for a drive?”

…

An hour and a half later, they were at a library in a moderately sized city. Rouge and Shadow had gone inside, and together they sat down at a computer. 

“Let’s check the news….” Shadow said, his voice monotone. He typed in team dark gun and bit his lip, the only motion betraying his thoughts.

G.U.N. Declares Team Dark Fugitives

Shadow the Hedgehog: Antihero or Anti-government?

Former Heroes Flee As G.U.N. Accuse Sabotage

Rouge bared her fangs. “While the publicity should be helpful later, it looks like our former employer doesn’t exactly value honesty.” she hissed. “Ignore these reporters. They know nothing.”

Shadow felt a little nervous- his friend looked positively deadly. “Let’s see what’s going on in Chatter.” he replied.

Most people were condemning the team or denying any ties to them- which was to be expected. However, there was one particularly high-profile post made by….of course. 

@sanicthehedgehog.

just saying i don’t believe any of this. team dark are good people!! they’d never do smth like this without a reason. i know that!

It appeared that Tails and Knuckles had publicly defended Sonic as well, but mainly after the haters started pouring in. Shadow wasn’t sure whether this was a tactic or not, but he felt so much better knowing that he, Rouge and Omega weren’t alone. 

Shadow tapped his earpiece. “Omega, we’re on Chatter and I know you haven’t had a chance to say anything much yet. Do you want to dictate a post and I’ll write it? I won’t change anything, I promise.”

He told Omega about the current news situation, and the robot had some very strong words for the public, specifically on a subthread of Sonic’s post where Tails had replied to some angry statements.

@milestailsprower: I agree with Sonic! I’m good friends with all of them, and they would’ve thought something like this through before doing it. 

Omega wanted to respond to his friend on Team Sonic, so Shadow logged in as him and typed what he heard.

@e123Ω: THANK YOU, TAILS. YOU ARE CORRECT. WE HAVE THOUGHT THIS THROUGH, AND HAVE GOOD REASONS FOR DOING IT. EXPECT MORE INFORMATION IN A FEW DAYS.

Shadow hit post- interestingly enough, he hadn’t even been able to type in anything other than all caps. It seemed that having a genius as your close friend had some interesting benefits.

Immediately, the two fled the library and rushed back to their motel, not waiting to see what the response was. It was only once they were safely inside their room, with the door locked, that Shadow began to relax.

“Alright, now that we’ve had that little adventure, let’s just try and have a calm evening.” Rouge said, after a moment.

The group played lots of board games- Omega had an excellent holographic projector built in from Tails’s experiments- and tried their best to remain relaxed and have some….not necessarily fun, but decent time before their next major move.

This (occasionally agonizing) wait continued for the next two days, and they only ventured into a different library once after that, just to see the response to Omega’s post.

Chatter had exploded.

There were theory threads stretching for hundreds of posts, angry responses on both sides, agitators, a formal G.U.N. rejection of the post, and much more.

But the only one that mattered was Tails’s response. 

I’m glad you’re okay, Omega. I miss working in the lab with you.

Omega was very quiet after that, but pleased that none of Team Sonic had let on that they knew the real reason behind their disappearance. After another painful afternoon of waiting, they all looked at each other and knew without saying anything what it meant.

It was time to invade G.U.N.’s facility.

""When will my car insurance rates get cheaper, due to having a clean driving record?""

I know I didn't do the best job asking the question, but I'll try to be short and sweet. I'm going to turn 18 in one month and 5 days. I got my license exactly one year ago, November 14th,2009. In January 2010, I got into a small accident, it was during my midterms at school, was a little stressed, but I rear-ended somebody, sadly not in my crappy car that would've cost barely anything to fix, but in my fathers expensive car. Now there was no damage done to the other car, and barely any damage done to my fathers, but because the airbags deflated (which ended up being the most expensive thing to fix) it was a hefty amount to pay. Insurance covered it (geico) and they advertised that the first accident wouldn't effect our rates. Well they lied and it did, so our rates went up because of my one accident. Since the incident, my parents have not got into an accident in at least 7 years, and since my accident all i have received is a few parking tickets. All in all, what I'm asking is; when are my insurance rates going to go back down? I'm going to remain on my parents insurance for a while, just because its cheaper etc etc... and I know I'm still under 25, and a guy, but will they ever go back to the original price they were at when I got my license?

On the odd occasion the hirer does not have anybody to drive the car for them they might want me to drive for them I have been told to do this I would need a private vehicle hire licence (mini cab drivers licence) also hire and reward insurance along with a mini cab office operators licence and the vehicle would need to be plated (tested) This is not a problem except for the hire and reward insurance which would be about 3000 per year and would not be cost effective for the amount of driving I would be doing (I would probably only be driving a customer 1 day per week). Does anybody know of a company that will insure me daily on hire and reward insurance?

Car insurance for teenagers!!?

I'm currently 19, I've held my driving license for 9months, since February. I've done the pass plus thing which in my opinion and everyone else's opinion a waste of time as it doesn't really save you that much off car insurance. Car insurance for me and my friends are through the roof, the only way to get lower car insurance is to get ourselves named as a named driver through our parents as they've got many years worth of no claims bonuses. Or to even change the address of where we live, such as a family or friends place, which is away from London and off the public roads. car insurance is a cheaper that way, as well as if you pay it annually instead of in monthly instalments. I work and basically want to get a car that is relatively cheap to insure, around the 1000-1500 mark not 4000 mark. I've tried fiat punto's, corsa's, the lot and they all seem to give me quotes of 4000 when the car is worth like a 1000. Its absolutely ludicrous, I want to be the owner of the vehicle so I can start my no claims bonus, otherwise my insurance will be high for some time, but i don't want to pay 4000 or go as a named driver as i will not work on my no claims bonus. Any suggestions? I both want and need a car, buying the cars not a problem, running the cars not a problem, paying for road tax or MOT's is not a problem it's just the insurance which is the main problem!!! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! :) Thanks in advance-Mike""

Ticket for no insurance?

Last year around September I made the grave mistake of letting a friend borrow my car to see his girlfriend and he claimed to have just gotten his license and it was supposed to come in the mail within the next week. I believed him and it's my fault, no question about that. He got pulled over and the cops gave him a ticket for no proof of insurance. And because he didn't have a license, they impounded my car for 30 days, but if he had gotten his license within that time, I could've retrieved my car earlier, but he was not cooperating. To make a long story short, I paid 1,500 out of my pocket to release my car from the impound lot, and my car was insured at the time but he was too dumb to find it in my glove compartment and got a ticket for 2,000. He now wants proof of insurance to dismiss the ticket but I'm not giving him it until I'm reimbursed for the impound fees. Is there any way he can get out of the no insurance ticket without proof of insurance? I live in California btw. Thanks!""

Will my home owner insurance go up if I make a claim? How much?

I live in Massachusetts. Let's say a homeowner has a flood, and claims a $3000 loss, minus a $500 deductible. Will they be punished severely with increased rates? What will it cost them? Will it make a difference if the damage was someone else's fault (e.g. in a condo where a first floor unit could be flooded by a broken water heater on the second floor, or by a fault in the building's plumbing which is owned by the association?) Will the insurance company send their lawyers after the party at fault, and in that case would they not raise the rates on the claimant? People tell horror stories, usually about car insurance, where the rates go up so much you pay the insurance company back for the whole claim. But I pay all of $220 per year for $30,000 in personal property coverage. If I claimed a loss of a few thousand dollars, how much could they really raise my $220 premium?""
