I've really wanted to work on comics again, so here are the first three draft pages of the one I'm doing rn!!! I'm really excited with how it's coming along and seeing my idea come together :3

Not to give much away, but I think there should be more platonic and wholesome a/b/o in the world. So this comic is that lmao.

No fucking clue when the final draft will be posted (there are at least two more stages after drafting before it'll be done) and maybe along the way I'll discover a method of making comics that doesn't take me ten million years.

@overclocks sent: this is the last time we take directions from a squirrel. (looks pointedly at tippy toe) // ( accepting ! )

Grimacing with pursed lips, the next breath Jessica takes is a huffy one. She's beyond annoyed ⸺ this place is cold, and damp, and dark, and, most importantly, WEIRD. She wants to have someone to pin all the blame onto for this little mishap they were in. But, in good conscious, she can't. Not with Tony, anyway ⸺ he's stuck in this situation with her, too. So, crossed arms open up, clasping in front of her instead as she fiddles with the tips of her gloves. ❝ I mean, to be fair, sometimes following RODENT ADVICE has worked out in the past. ❞ Jess shudders thinking of how eerily often that seems to be true. ❝ I'm not mad ⸺ I mean, I am, but not with you. I'm pissed at a fuckin' squirrel. What a little BASTARD. ❞

The Cutting Edge (1992)

As far as formulaic romantic comedies go, you could do far worse than The Cutting Edge. The leads are appealing and the sports angle does add a bit of zip to the recipe… but at the end of the day, it’s still a formulaic romantic comedy. You can predict every beat of this story minutes in.

Kate Moseley (Moira Kelly) is a spoiled but talented figure skater whose attitude has driven away every one of her partners. Doug Dorsey was the captain of the U.S. ice hockey team until a head injury forced him to retire and killed his olympic dreams. When Kate’s coach, Anton Pamchenko (Roy Dotrice) decides to recruit the former hockey star as Kate’s partner for the upcoming 1992 Olympics, it looks like a bad idea. They clash constantly. They can’t stand each other… but their animosity means neither will be the first to quit.

I should let you write the rest of this review. Do I have to tell you that Doug is a ladies’ man, that Kate is engaged to a man she has nothing in common with, that a turning point in the story has her breaking off her engagement to try and seduce Doug but that when she goes to apologize to him the next morning she finds him in bed with a rival skater, prompting a big argument? That’s all obvious, as are the reasons why they don’t initially get along. Kate is a prima donna who considers hockey a sport for oafs. Doug thinks figure skating is for girls and is embarassed to admit what he’s doing to his older brother. Of course. Is there any other way they could behave? Not in these types of movies.

Once the initial friction subsides and the pair begins competing to attend the Olympics, things don’t get any less conventional. Even when the movie tries to fool you into thinking it’ll do the unexpected, you know better. For crying out loud, the way characters are introduced or what they look like tells you exactly what part they’ll play in this story.

Following a formula doesn’t necessarily make a bad movie but this film isn’t an early example of the rom-com genre; it came out in 1992 when we were far too familiar with the tropes to be satisfied with the basics once again. That said, there is a certain charm to this tried-and-true formula. I couldn't hate the movie because it doesn’t do anything badly. Usually, these plots have to jump through all sorts of contrived hoops to go the way they do and this one does not. It’s a lot more grounded than expected. There is also the appeal of seeing well-performed figure skating routines shot from the perfect angle, featuring people we actually know. This keeps you invested enough to keep watching despite knowing well in advance what the ending will be.

The worst thing about The Cutting Edge is that it’s basic. This is the sort of movie you’d see as a kid or young teen and enjoy. For years, you'd be dumbfounded, wondering why others don’t share the same enthusiasm for it that you do. Over the years, you’d realize why. This has all been done before and better. For that reason, I can’t recommend The Cutting Edge, but it’s a near miss. (On DVD, October 3, 2021)

sorry I just have to use this blog as a diary to write down every special "actors breaking/audience reaction" moment from that last Merrily performance to (a) get it out of my system and (b) put it down somewhere in case i forget a single second of it.

during the overture, if you were sitting close enough you could hear the actors cheering backstage and we all started to laugh because they were so rowdy

Every single member of the ensemble got applause during their entrance not just the leads.

jonathan groff entered the stage with tears visibly rolling down his face

as i've said before, franklin shepard inc. got the first and maybe biggest mid-show standing ovation of the night and daniel radcliffe who was already on the verge of tears broke down crying. it was beautiful.

they had so much fun during "old friends." there's a bit where they're all dancing and mary accidentally goes the wrong way (which is scripted) and lindsay went "oh shit" in such a loud, funny, "this is unscripted" way that everyone lost it.

they got a huge standing ovation after "old friends," and just stood on the trunk laughing and bantering through the applause to keep the bit going (half in character, half as themselves). Their mics were cut but this went on for a full 3 minutes and i wish i could lip-read.

In general, lindsay was generally coping by being even funnier than usual. She hissed at gussie so vigorously during the scene where they're in gussie's apartment that everyone in the cast almost lost it.

more on lindsay being so funny: during the bit where gussie and frank are in his apartment and mary and charley are outside and gussie says "can they [meaning mary and charley] see us?" and the last time i saw it charley and mary just pointedly steal a glance inside to indicate that yes they can see inside. this time lindsay waved to them so aggressively to say "yes we can see you" that jonathan groff broke laughing.

I didn't actually hear them perform much of "it's a hit" because it got interrupted by applause every five seconds. There was one long standing ovation during the "tony" bit and another at the end. But also just constant applause interruptions throughout. They went "it's the sound of an audience losing its mind" and we all just lost our fucking minds mid-song. Reg got cheers for “it's funny girl, fiddler and dolly combiiiiine—“ so he literally had to add the "d" in "combined" after the applause, which just caused more cheering and laughing.

During "opening doors," frank types something on Charley's typewriter and Dan has previously said Jonathan writes him a dirty/funny joke every night. Whatever the fuck he wrote that last night made Dan break and laugh and shake his head. And the audience lost it.

Everyone crying during "not a day goes by" and "good thing going." Jonathan openly weeping looking at Dan during "good thing going." Dan looking straight ahead to avoid crying.

When Dan entered for the final rooftop scene, J Groff just lost it when Dan goes "is something wrong" and started crying instead of saying his line (shoulders shaking, back to the audience) and Dan's face was just like "don't do this to me." so everyone in the audience went "awww" and clapped for them until they were ready to jump back in.

all three of them just crying non-stop during "our time." When Frank goes "after this moment that the three of us are sharing, nothing is ever going to be like it was" everyone in my section gasped and people just started crying. and then also Dan and Lindsay both just lingered (with tears in their eyes) and shared a long moment with J Groff before exiting to leave him alone for the blackout.
