Oh my sweet innocent child friend yes I hate it with all my soul. I betcha I could get a five without having taken the class. I’ve learned nothing. -
AP Class Peeps
Edema Rue replied to Through The Living Glass's topic in Social Groups, Clans, & Guilds
do you know the demographic transition model song?? you better heehee AP stats anyone? I’m literally 50-50 on getting a 4 or getting a 1. No in between, though. Also AP lang, but that one will probably be an easy 4 or 5. -
Hehe Wicked was the first Broadway show I ever saw and I saw a Broadway tour of Hamilton last August. sure! I’m making a set of singing in the rain as if it were set in the Soviet Union right now :))

To the theatre, regarding the end:
One list
it takes one list
of names
to take you
from me.
it takes one list
one team
one promise of a beautiful future
without me in it
to tell me
that this
is the end.
i miss you already.

Current mood:
Helsinki by The National Parks
I might go to their concert this fall. And Hozier this summer
Auditions were all right today. It messes with your brain to spend hundreds of hours with a person, then watch them graduate and disappear. Happened last year, but this year it’ll be so much worse, and especially to go to auditions and have none of my senior friends there…stars above. I did a monologue today, callbacks Monday, and a singing audition Thursday. Oh, and the AP stats test Thursday. Forgot about him.
i should sleep.
i want to write.
who will stay awake and write with me?

PURPLE?!
Or maybe blue
I only saw him for a second but it looked purple
-
I’ll be more free maybe in just a couple weeks, I can try to join once it’s up and running!
-
Hahhaahhahhhaahahahahahaa kill me now (for legal reasons that is a joke) I have auditions tomorrow, callbacks Monday, one AP test next week, a history final and another AP test the week after, and several million little assignments and studying to fill in the gaps. oh, I also volunteer at the library on thursdays and I start and one of my jobs next week and the other at the end of May. I’m going to a few different plays, trying to work out and be a functional human, all that stuff.

Thanks!! It’s not related to anything else, in my mind it’s like a dystopian world. I have a few ideas for it but nothing specific, so maybe it’ll come back at some point.

I wrote uh something @Through The Living Glass@RoyalBeeMage it grew but I think it's still technically a monologue Restless:
-
Aww, good luck!! We had our eighth and final show last night. my heart hurts.
-
Oh my scudding chasms.
So, Hadestown tonight, yes?
sorry, I’m aware this is becoming my entire personality but I only have one show left and then you guys are free.
But basically.
There’s a part in Our Lady of the Underground where Persephone is introducing the band. And our trombonist tonight was our band teacher (sometimes it’s one of my besties). He always improvs something wonderful and different. But the thing is, he got a little too excited and pulled his slider thingy ALL THE WAY OFF HIS TROMBONE. And the way our set is, he’s playing on top of a platform in the set. Well he drops part of his scudding trombone off the set, and without missing a beat he starts singing as if he’s a trombone, on beat, with his whole heart as he walks down the stairs to pick up his slider. He picks it up and starts playing, makes up whatever the rest of this solo is, then shakes Persephone’s hand and walks back to his seat amid thunderous applause.
Who is this DIVA
who is this absolute QUEEN what a man, what a darling
anyways
not our best show, but we had a few silly mistakes like that. And we started very late because the piano wasn’t working, which actually really bothered me. And after the show our Eurydice called her boyfriend and broke up with him on speaker over then phone while everyone was listening…she didn’t communicate very well and reinforced my personal opinion that she is a walking red flag. In some ways. People change, of course.
EDIT: what the sigma happened to my formatting how…??

I love Eurydice, but my friend (who also loves her) and I described her as such: "you know that red flag factory that we were talking about [this was in reference to another friend of ours
]? Take that, triple the size, and throw some flagpoles flying giant red tarps on it. That's [Eurydice]."
love both of the red flag factories to death though

AMAZING I love those spontaneous moments which instead of creating panic absolutely SLAY, only live theatre
WARNING NERDY RAMBLING INCOMING
On Hadestown in general: It's just absolute genius. I love (and hate, love to hate, idk its complicated) Stories where you know the ending, its tragic and inevitable but somehow hope is created in the audience anyway. When done well its absolutely heartbreaking and absolutely beautiful.
Other examples might be the star wars prequels: you know Anakin will become Darth Vader but there's hope anyway. (I think Hadestown does it so much more beautifully though)
Also, Exandria Unlimited: Calamity does this concept amazingly. The only problem is you need a lot of background information on the world and the apocalypse that was the calamity for it to be fully impactful. An issue which follows all stories of this kind, you need to know of the tragedy for the futility of your hope and the eventual heartbreak to strike true. Hadestown solves this through the introduction of the story at the beginning of the show, it of course does assume some familiarity of the audience with. the tragedy of orpheus and eurydice but does not require it.
TLDR: All this to say Hadestown is a masterpiece of storytelling in so many ways. The pure emotion of its music, the humanisation of its characters (even the inhuman ones) and of course the perfection of the weaponistation of hope.

I have a really dumb stormlight question
But I wanna know, so someone answer me
So, let’s say that there’s a really fat Radiant. Or just a really fat person with an Edgedancer friend. If someone sliced off their stomach and then it was healed with Stormlight, would they be healed skinny or fat?
if they’re healed skinny, I wanna run this business I’d be so rich.
this does bring up interesting ethical implications about healing vs curing, and which Stormlight does
but mostly I’m tired of working for other people and I want to get rich and also it was a really funny idea I had last night

lmao you'd write such a good political figure of power who got there through their manipulation and wealth which they probably gained through dubious means.
I love when people are so intelligent and could definitely be evil if they wanted to but are so kind and just genuinely good people, you're wonderful eddie
. (Another example would be Brennan Lee Mulligan)

YOURE RIGHT QUASIMODO, WE’RE ONLY MADE OF STONE
WE JUST THOUGHT THAT YOU WERE MADE OF SOMETHING
STRONGERRRRR
well. personally, in a good way. Now that one of the cast members has found out (a specific one), it could be bad
I love her though, so I'm sure it'll be fiiiiiiiiine
I'm trying to get the choir teacher to let me sing that and/or Evermore in BB next year

Awww you are lucky, this is my last one till August. Last one ever with some of my best friends…but I have auditions next Friday Well we’ve been open for a week already, we took yesterday and today off and then starting tomorrow we have 4 more shows. It’s sad because I want to relish every second but I’m lowkey sick, not sleeping, and I’m in um I think 20ish credits of college classes right now?? But I love it and wouldn’t trade it for anything, you know how it is

I don’t know if I’m laughing or crying or writhing on the floor in pain.

Heehee i’m still figuring out the story I’m telling but…well, I enjoy the interpretations :))
-
We can dream No honestly though I’m so obsessed with this idea and idk if it’s coming through but I love it and I love the feel of the relationships between characters and the whole idea is that people can and do change and it makes me feel so warm and fuzzy to write.

A whisper of wind that smelled of memory blew through the space. Then it was gone, never to return. -
Well scud i guess that’s what happens when I leave

Yeah, so in my mind their family is kinda like Shallan’s but less rural and more powerful? Like a little messed up on the inside but a powerful noble house that can’t just be ignored or pushed aside. @Spark of Hope :))

Another scene This is the furthest along chronologically, hopefully it has at least a few answers. I’m not the sort to give you a ton of world building because my stories are about relationships and people more than anything else
