MIWeek2022 Day 1

i was put on this earth today to give you this:

✨ reverse malevolent ✨

polite/slightly violent british man talking into your ear and reassuring you that he is your "friend"

and in the hospital he goes:

"one of those nurses, lively one, comes in everyday to check on you. Since you had no id on you, she would say, 'Good morning, John.' ...But after a couple days, she-"

"what?"

"She took it back. Said you looked more like an... Arthur. Said it fit you more and I guess it stuck with me, John. I... I like it"

Helloooooo friends! I am here to announce that I am looking for submissions for my next poll:

Rules for submissions:

No real people (don't know how that would work in this anyways)

how can i have gender envy for a mf i've never seen

It's May 4th.

Time to remind everyone that this was a thing in a galaxy far far away.

Time to remind everyone that Guybrush Threepwood was a jedi and canonically fought Darth Vader.

Happy Guybrush Threepkiller Day.

May the Fourth be with you.

Sorry I haven’t done that drawing request, I’ve been posting stupid polls on tumblr.com

what’s your ‘thing’ as a friend. i don’t mean like ‘oh im the mom friend’ i mean like what’s the Thing where if one of your friends was looking for a specific interaction they’d message you first. personally i can always be relied upon to get hyped about bugs, literature, and cursed internet images.

The last character you drew/wrote about is now stuck in the last game you played. How screwed are they?

oh the quick changing of zach in the liveshows is both adorable and really really talented! everyone in the liveshows is doing such a good job, vocally and physically. i can't help staring at all of them in awe (and also like... kinda sorta acting, performing crushing? at them) and seeing them add their faces and bodies into the mix.

shoutout to that person in the comments who pointed out zach's smile when hera is introduced. i look for that everytime, i look for zach everytime. i look for lovelace staring down eiffel and the fear in his eyes. i get to see a physical version of minkowski's dissappointment. i get to see... cutter.

the AMA (after countless searching spirals) have been such a treat in an information way. like the fondness and the openess of their creative process really adds to how the story feels. also non-canon silly goofy topics! and new facts that... may or may not contribute to things already rattling around in my brain :))) because okokok, learning that dylan marron was considered for cutter is... such a mental image that i choose to think about daily

i think this is both a question and an excuse to talk about the live show. things that you love about the live show? or also the AMAs?

(i've been putting the amas on whilst spring cleaning and it just makes me kick my feet like a schoolgirl)

wolf 359 live show, my most dearly beloved... what don't i love about it? (... aside from how beige it is and how tricky that makes it to color, maybe.) ... like. ough. the way eiffel is the only one who looks over / crosses the stage over to hera. the music cues!! scotty sitting in the audience the whole time, and how completely the tone shifts when cutter shows up. how much everyone's expressions and mannerisms embody the characters, and how that physicality carries over to how i see them in the rest of the show. it's impossible for me not to see most of them as versions of their voice actors. it's funny, it's tense, it has so many really good character moments. it's such a perfect encapsulation of all the best things about wolf 359, now with different layers of nuance and physical comedy. it understands the medium it's in and the tools it has available as well as it does in audio format, and the fact the show in general is written and performed with so much thought towards physicality certainly doesn't hurt.

and also i love eiffel. i love zach's exaggerated body language and expressions as eiffel. never fails to cheer me up.

^ just look at this guy.

as for the AMAs, i love hearing them talk about the characters so much. like, with the understanding that it can't be taken as direct, literal canon when it's outside of the show, i still think it helps you understand a lot about how they see the characters, and so. how the characters were written. knowing they had detailed character bibles full of stuff that never directly made it into the show is like... maybe it's not 'canon', but it's in the performance, it's in the writing, it informs who they are. it's a similar thing.

and also, again, i love eiffel. and i love to hear them say completely useless things about eiffel that couldn't possibly be interesting to 90% of people. like zach saying his favorite ice cream would be cotton candy dippin dots (disgusting sweet tooth on that man.) or gabriel listing pink floyd, led zeppelin, and the rolling stones as examples of eiffel's music taste (bargain rack band tee music taste; he is soo normal. i want him carnally.) eiffel really likes bowling. "what brand of cigarettes does eiffel smoke?" / "cheap." eiffel's ideal valentine's day is netflix and chill. "what's eiffel's favorite book?" / "... eiffel reads?" (gabriel's actual suggestions were 'something unpretentious, like a pulpy 80s action movie of a book. or splinter of the mind's eye.') ... etc. etc. you understand.

also the AMAs are great for that one time gabriel said "eiffel's doing hera" and immediately regretted his choice of phrasing so so much.

Ready Player One

I’ve watched the movie and have read the book and I have one thing to say. I kinda want/wanted a RPO semi-animated tv show. The story could be broken up into a mini-series narrated by Wil Wheaton or Tye Sheridan. The cast could stay the same and maybe follow more of the book? I don’t know. I would be cool to see more book references! except for that weird part with wade. you all know that part.
