Idk if anyone has posted this yet but I thought I’d pass on Tom’s message about Spotify :)
Noooo Titch my beloved
RIP Titch, that was fucking intense (and holy shit, over 400 people voted)
lyrics from "Ferryman" by Shayfer James & Will Wood (text-free version and yapping below)
It's done!!! Waaah the only reason it took so long for me to make is bc I kept changing my plans lol. I was only gonna do flat colors... then minimal shading... then um. Yeah. So it's gone through a lot. But I definitely enjoyed looking at it while drawing. They're so ARRRGHHHHHH
This is my take on THE stars of Thirsty Vampires!! Esmeranna?? Is Anna just a fanon name? I've been obsessed since January and I still don't know.
ALSO! @notsoprivateartgalleryshush drew this scene as well (click on that link or I'll stake you) and they guessed what I was working on based on Esmeralda's sleeve & asked to be tagged in the finished piece. Here it is!!!<3 Hope it didn't disappoint! ^^
Also also. I need you to understand exactly how this scene is like all my interests colliding into one big bang. A few hours ago I finished drawing THIS for my anime art account(s) as my new pfp.
ANYWAY!!! thanks for reading AAGH back into my Angel cave I go.
Melting butter, a cavalcade of sugar, one million chocolate chips!! And a glass of milk to wash it down
Sam's Rule of Improv: Any scene that can become sexual, will become sexual and most likely problematic (typically via unnecessary moaning sounds)
Tom's Rule of Improv: Avoid getting SFTH cancelled by begrudgingly taking the role of the group's Disappointed Father™ (typically involves unsexualizing and sanitizing Sam's contributions)
Luke's Rule of Improv: Play innocent, then shock your audience AND fellow improvisors by revealing your complete lack of shame and filter when their guard's down
AJ's Rule of Improv: If the plot is clearly going in one direction, take the soonest opportunity to steer that shit off a cliff
And of course the most important SFTH Rule of Improv: If someone makes a mistake, never EVER let it go. It's a plot point now.
I had so much fun translating their actual outfits into something that would work for the time period they chose
only the shoot from the hip fandom would have me saying shit like "i think meth wife goes final 4 but gets beat out by old lady margery"
I will NEVER stop posting gifs of them hugging they're the softest, sweetest lil beans and I love them
Old lady Margaery, don’t enjoy this TOO much
“The first time anyone wondered where to go, they dreamt me into existence” 😫 (made Loco’s face look like the front of a train because why not)
Cindy is becoming one of my favourite characters, i fear
Remember when I asked for sketch ideas and said I'd do THIS one (below) digitally, after I rewatch this longform? Well it's finally done, an odd balance between messy and thought-out, but I like this play quite a bit so I had fun 💕 tysm for the suggestion!!
Alright, I'm finally starting to make these for the longforms! These are gonna be quite a bit longer than the other two I've made, since these videos are (typically) longer and I have a lot of thoughts about them lol (edit while writing, less than halfway through the video - yeah, I have way more to say than I thought I would)
Before I even get into the video itself, I just love the bold move of having their first Youtube longform be one about nazis, let's people know the kind of humor they'll be getting from these guys lmao
Also shout out to the not insignificant number of people who fully didn't recognize AJ with hair
Luke's executive decision to grab a prop gun and just stand there like 🧍🏼
"If he was only a foot and a half taller, he would be a perfect nazi!" Still one of my favorite Luke short jokes, because if I was him I genuinely wouldn't know how to take that observation-
Not sure why Sam chose the puffy purple jacket for his villain character, but at least we get to call him Ze Blackberry now
I'd like to imagine as Sam was introducing himself, he looked over to Luke like 'oh shit right, he's still just fucking standing there, I should probably include him somehow' and to Sam that ofc meant flirting with him
Which btw is the strangest flirting attempt I've ever seen- "Beautiful little pocket-sized Aryan" and "Sexy little ferret" ?? Guys I've never flirted with anyone but I don't think he's doing it right
"Guten Abend" Luke/Hans isn't good at this flirting thing either, but at least they're both having fun
Two French brothers casually parachuting over Berlin during World War II, nothing weird about that
"Ja- yes- er, oui! I'm trilingual, I'm sorry" Idk if it's the language confusion or the fact he apologized to the nazi, but this was a great line
"The plan is working perfectly, we're making them uncomfortable. Keep it up!" Luke, who has done very little in that regard except respond to Sam: "Okay!!" *just keeps standing there*
"Hard day being a nazi?" Considering you're currently giving him a backrub and are probably about to fuck him, I'd say he's having a pretty good day
Before Luke's BAFTA winning portrayals of grief in The Evil Make-A-Wish Kid and The Grape Depression, we had AJ's sobbing in OMGITAJ
So glad this play was set mainly in France so AJ could show off his French knowledge in the best ways (skipping across the stage and singing)
Sam characteristically entering briefly as an unspecified beast that for simplicity I'm going to call a ram
Genuinely one of my favorite and most underappreciated moments in the video is Katherine assigning Luke's character a feminine name, which he clearly didn't expect, and he just takes a moment to reevaluate life, while staring at the comedically placed banana in his hand. 10/10 fantastic bit
"My husband has been captured" "You know this for sure?" "Well he didn't come home and he's a French spy so" Fair logic that was 100% correct
"I already have a husband" "Well Xavier will have to wait until he's officially dead then" rip Jean-Luc man, at least Sarah seems to genuinely love him and be loyal though, good for them
Tag yourself, I'm AJ fangirling heavy over Xavier as he walks onstage
"I could have mimed it but I did not" has and forever will live in my brain rent free, bro had no reason to do that but took the fucking opportunity
Also Sarah's friend (did she ever get a name?) is simping for Xavier more than Sarah herself, they could've just fucked instead
"I don't know the French word for mice" "C'est une souris, une souris, une souris" French lessons with AJ
I've already made a whole post about my love for pre-reveal Xavier, but jesus, can you blame me? This character is the actual reason I started being attracted to Tom in the first place, why is he so SMOOTH-
Also the fact Luke didn't even flinch when Tom tilted his chair back and just nonchalantly crossed his legs- This whole scene is perfect istg
"I'm just going to take a few pictures-" That's so real of you girl
"I am a man" Gonna start saying this in front of the mirror as affirmations in the morning, same tone and everything
Tom launching himself across the stage before he even has the chance to rebutton his shirt lol
"Look out! It's the nazi-looking guy!" Saying this about the actual nazi is so funny
Not me being genuinely kinda sad about François getting killed
Katherine getting into Sam's carriage with a pumpkin (For some reason??) and Sam pausing not once, but twice, and eventually deciding to proceed as normal and not question it
Jean-Luc: *crying because trauma* Katherine: "Aw.. If you're thirsty you could drink it!" Katherine might've earned her place as my favorite 5th SFTH member they've had
Big Hans showing up with an entirely different vibe from the last time we saw him- Maybe because he's not busy being gay with Ze Blackberry
But really, why is this nazi boy so excited about the french language while he's taking over their country
"Les coqs :D" Sir what is this energy you're putting out, it's confusing me
I like that instead of just saying something like "It's a French horse, why do I care if I kicked it" he's just like "German horses wouldn't give a shit, your horses are just weak"
"Very hairy chickens you have here" A joke they couldn't have made now-
I'd just like to point out that Big Hans didn't get shot from what I could tell, so he could technically still be alive. Idk what to do with that information, I just wanted it out there
Tom pulling his classic sexy-character move: Foot dramatically placed on chair
The cleaner just being like "what a fucking mess, god I hate my job" as if Xavier and Sarah aren't currently having a whole plot-altering revelation in the same room
Oh yeah, and this is also the moment I was very relieved Sarah was a better person than me (/hj) and didn't sleep with Xavier
Also, mostly unrelated, but Katherine's voice specifically as the cleaner reminds me of DHMIS every single time and idk why
"Are you quite finished??" "... Honestly, no"
"But who would do that? Who would do- It was me" He tried to be mysterious but Xavier really wanted credit for what he did
Sam the Ram returns! Very cool that their first video had classics of all kinds: Sam being a chaotic animal, AJ getting to be French, Tom being a sexy German, and Luke being an equally-attractive-but-not-quite-as-played-up woman
"I was tortured by two men gettig with each other next to me" "They're always doing that, the nazis" If SFTH can make nazis gay af, they truly can do anything
Why does Ram-Sam look so offended on behalf of the French after Luke's "It's in my nature" line lmaoo
"Where did you get my dildo!?" Amazing line from Luke, but really what was that thing??
And ofc Xavier dies as he lived.. Shirtless. Sexy evil bastard-

It does include Patreon exclusive content but nothing is linked (if something is linked please let me know). Suggestions are welcome, it is still in progress so its not perfect.

3) Sexy (Sexy German Woman, Xavier, Magnus O Puss)
Bonus! Guys named Derek that are just so in love (The Unrelenting Aubergine, Blancmange Flurry)

Tom’s Child category was gonna be ‘traumatized child’ but that was before I realized 3 of the 4 play children pretty often and every single one is traumatized
Yes the Witchfinder General is hilarious and absurd in concept, but so is Locomotion and even Sam admitted he was terrifying. Idek if I’ll have people arguing this, I’m just covering all my bases-
Krampus is purely there because they have this man a microphone and he became far too powerful
If there’s only one example listed, it means I know it’s happened more than once, but I can’t think of the others off the top of my head
Except for AJ’s bonus, I just always thought the was funny
Yes, ‘child that pisses people off’ ranges from being a little annoying to actual murder, but they both count
I used the phrasing ‘creatures’ instead of ‘animals’ on purpose, and I don’t think I have to explain why
Nobody understands her like I do
andrew from "all eyes on nigel"! i always thought the really red lighting in that comedy club (?) they were performing in looked cool

Poster for shoot from the hip’s improvised play
Shoot From The Hip, the great romantics of our time.
New hyper fixation unlocked: four British men who play pretend games onstage for a living
luke "all the facts i give in the show are fucking true" manning vs. alexander "consistently loses the plot" jeremy is truly an unstoppable force meets an immovable object
like sam bullshits his way through facts, so tom and luke can take joy in correcting his mistakes. but correcting aj only brings the others suffering because most of the time, aj himself doesn't necessarily believe anything that comes from his mouth. the man is just saying words recreationally. which also happens to establish the reality of the world the other three exist in.
Sure Luke
Straight men be acting like angsty lesbian couples and I'm so sick of them /j
I don’t see enough discussion of the way Sam turns around when AJ says, “I’ll leave you with a poem” in Inside the Mysterious Cube
Like, that is the most “you have dug yourself a hole and I am going to greatly enjoy watching you scrabble around in there” look I’ve ever seen in my life
fellas is it gay to transcend this plane of existence with your situationship
Why can’t we just stay right here?
FUCK. honestly just FUCK. We missed a very important day yesterday.
