I've been thinking about this recently 😭
"life is lonley, life is rotten, and thankfully short, thankfully short, thankfully SHORT!"
"...like Marvin!"
and
"Short insomiacssssss and a teeny-tiny band!" how I love you
also I am just constantly thinking about Chip Zien's Marvin, almost every hour of every day. thank you
Chip Zien: *is in a William Finn musical*
William Finn writing the lyrics: 🎶 He is SO fucking SHORT 🎶
Jesus. 🙄🤬
It's queer Mr. Marvin! ...sorry 😅
FALSETTOS RANT!
I cannot believe this controversy is actually a CONTROVERSY. we should all be in agreeance: Marvin is a gay man.
He is a homosexual. A man liker. A MAN WHO LIKES MEN.
Every instance in which he 'loves' women is completely fabricated! It's not actually him being infatuated with any aspect of the female freaking nature.
We shouldn't be arguing this point because there is NO point. Bisexual Marvin is a pipedream. Poof! Doesn't exist, thank you.
the next person that calls marvin bi is gonna acc die i swear to god im loosing my mind
Evan and Jared?
Evan and Jared.
my favorite thing is when people are like “this is my favorite character and they suck”. not even “they are flawed but I still like them” just “I like them because they’re pathetic”
AAA; thank YOU!
Take your time tho, drink lots of water and don’t stay up like i did the other night because now i have eye bags <3
*Slams head on keyboard*
IT'S 2 A.M. BUT GOSHDANGIT I HAVE SO MANY DEH THINGS FLOATING AROUND MY BRAIN FOR YOUR CHALLENGE!!
Songs:
For Evan: Dead-Bird by McCafferty; Dead Weight by Jack Stauber; Maybe a bit of the ENA Remix (Allergic to People Meme); Michelle by Sir Chloe; The Anxiety Song By Human Petting Zoo
For Jared: Taking My Uzi To The Gym By The Front Bottoms; i just learned the f word By SARIAH sort of has the Jared vibe to it; Loser by Mccafferty
[I recommend listening to these if ya haven't when you get the time ^^]
Vague Plotlines (lol):
Michael tries to get a patch for Jeremy to put on his jacket for when Jeremy himself wears it but can't find one that fits perfectly and has to ask him about it.
Jared's parents are never home- too busy with their jobs (as real estate agents that travel a lot) to come home and visit him for his birthday but even after the fight Evan leaves him a present by his door.
Brooke gets really sad over the fact that she can't eat froyo so Chloe goes out and buys her every fucking flavour of ice cream that she can find that is dairy-free because fuck lactose intolerance, we can still have a nice movie night.
Connor starts randomly cutting himself while he's high in front of Jared and to stop him all Jared can do in his also extremely drugged up state of brain is kiss him
Dialogue Prompts:
"I've moved on, and you should too." ~ Kleinsen
"Move over, this bathtubs only got so much room in it." ~ Boyf riends
"Tell me everything." ~ Conguel (Connor x Miguel)
"Nice ass, tall-ass!" ~ Spicy Bis
"Your not the loser, the geek, or whatever." ~ Deere
"I'm watching you. You better not fall out of any more fucking trees." ~ Kleinsen (again. lol, sorry-)
"Stop ignoring me and stop hurting yourself!!" ~ Kleinphy
Just a few things I thought of off the top of my head, I'll send in more if I think of any <3
OH MY GOD????
These are a LOT (/pos) THANK YOUUUUUUU
also never apologize for sending a lot of kleinsen it's like, my biggest comfort ever??? I'll just tag this with something so I can find it!
I'll dm you when your fic(s, depends on how motivated I'll be) is ready!!
Ty!
STOPP my mom just had a whole ass conversation with me like two days ago where she tried to explain that a relationship would fall apart without sex. and without sex, you're partner holding someone's hand on kissing someone else is the new sex.
NO. actually. not true guys. if I ever do have a partner in the future, them fucking holding someone's hand won't bother me. it won't be done with romantic connotation. they are allowed to breathe─ just because if I ever want a relationship I wouldn't want it to be sexual doesn't mean it doesn't matter? or it matters less??? buddy.
i didn't have "i'm broken" teenage asexual angst i had "i'm literally being the only reasonable one about this concept and the rest of you are behaving like fucking freaks" perception issues

so, let's talk about the chess game a little more thoroughly
in the chess game (from falsettos, idk if that's apparently clear, "a chess game" could literally be anything lol) there's a pattern of impatience that follows the two main characters.
Marvin's impatience is fully one-sided, you can see as Whizzer begins the game, he's insistent for him to get his turn over with, even going so far as to (quite condescendingly) ask if Whizzer wants his help. But then the moment it's his turn, he takes his time despite Whizzer having rushed his first move.
I think this might stem from his constant need to "help", or rather, control every situation. He thinks it's always his job to be the leader of every circumstance, as the stereotypical man.
It definitely comes from a childhood of commanding others around and not having a heavy amount of discipline for his actions.
Otherwise, Marvin taking time to calculate his move shows that he's careful with his own placement in life. A life of tiptoing around himself and never actually accepting the full extent of his personality, or sexuality has made him incredibly courteous of where he stands. Maybe it even came from his relationship with Trina, how not being careful led him to being forced into an arranged marriage.
Meanwhile, (and I know I've gone through this bit before in other posts but yes, thanks, I need more appreciation on William Finn not just victimizing Whizzer. Like, he's not that great either guys. We love him, but he isn't perfect.) Whizzer uses the game as a strategy to get Marvin on his side.
Although instead of healthily sorting through his MASS amount of issues, Whizzer pretty much just ends up manipulating him into throwing the game. It's interesting because Whizzer has an opportunity to discuss all of the problems they have with Marvin.
They're in a place in their relationship where he can clearly just throw anything out there, but then he strikes back with anger instead of trying to actually figure out the main issues and help them both through it, effectively shutting off Marvin's ability to actually listen to anything he has to say.
The chess game was actually staged so perfectly, because you can clearly see all of the toxicity in one contained place during that song. There's obviously snippets in others, Marvin's inability to change and Whizzer's insistence not to change because changing would mean they would have to actually talk about their feelings toward each other.
anyways, these are just my thoughts on this :) none of its fully canon, I was just watching through clips of the proshot and realized some interesting things
Me, before posting a chapter on AO3: Wow. This is really good. The syntax, the inner turmoil, the grammar. Impeccable. 10/10
Me as soon as the chapter is live: yeah, no. I deserve to be shot.
I'm back! (to wreak havoc, of course) welcome to my chaos, it's gone un-updated for.. one year? two, mayhaps?anyhow, hello!enjoy my gorgeous insanity
