It will never stop being funny for me how Ben was first introduced in the series as this brooding dark ghost that’s haunting Klaus but 4 episodes later he’s happily yelling ‘WHEEE!’ in an ice cream truck while holding a popsicle.
Now if you think about it, shouldn’t be surprising when you take into account that his first interaction in the series is him and Klaus trying to decide if they should eat waffles or not.
For the anon who wanted ben in n3 for the sleepy prompts
Anon .... thank you so much because I love him and I would die for him
did this 5 months ago on a plane, but i was thinking about them again
Comic Five is a deranged little demon and I love that for him
I really love this series! And I’m REALLY looking forward to the second season!!!
Now more personal headcannons that aren’t based on comic/Netflix knowledge but I want them to happen anyway
The actions the Academy make in the past will cause a change in the future timeline. Maybe we’ll see the group with cellphones. I am here for a tua group chat. And then the off-brand “evens” group chat and “sisters” group chat.
Delores will come back.
At least one character will meet their birth mother.
Dave didn’t die. But more likely, they will meet him again in Texas BEFORE he technically met Klaus. Or Klaus will use the excuse of being in the past to look for Dave. (Vietnam war 1968—>JFK 1963)
The Academy will Groundhog Day the Apocalypse day until it works.
Kenny’s mom is in the commission. Or maybe even one of the 43 children.
The handler is not dead because she is one of the 43.
We will meet someone higher up in the commission.
Hazel and Cha Cha backstory
Bens power is not just to summon an octopus creature out of his chest. It’s to make a portal in his chest. So he would be able to summon other creatures as well (not just king Cthulhu or whatever). So we can see Ben summoning fairies, jackalopes, inter-dimensional kitty cats, giant dragon wings, etc. Maybe he has alternate dimension powers, similar to Five’s time and space manipulation.
Allison will be REDEEMED. She is a fantastic character and great mediator. Despite her past mistakes, she will be a vital part to the communication and relationships between the team.
Maybe coming back to life isn’t just Klaus’ thing due to his powers. Maybe all of the Academy have trouble dying (rip ben). Allison realistically should not have survived Vanyas attack. Luther shouldn’t have survived his accident.
Grace will come back. Diego will see her and MELT. She will also FINALLY finish her convo with Diego and tell him what she was going to before time reversed the first time.
Vanya will NOT be mad at her siblings she’ll just feel bad about what she did.
The siblings will find out that Allison rumored them in the past too.
The commission will un-monkey Luther.
There will be more communication between the siblings.
Hargreeves used the Academy to commit crimes for his personal benefit without them knowing.
Five does NOT get a girlfriend or boyfriend.
Allison will become a SINGLE MOM (with an appearance from Claire and maybe Patrick). She might get a new boyfriend in the past.
Ben will stay single.
Diego will get with somebody (Eudora or not).
The girl on the bus that smiled at vanya will come back. Maybe a new love interest to make Vanya rightfully into girls???
Okay, we are launching a new challenge so that you won’t get too bored being at home all the time. This time, it is a handwriting challenge!
For the next seven days, I will post a word of the day at 6 AM Eastern Time (EDT) every day. Just as usual.
You write a word of the day by hand, preferably in Russian cursive, take a photo of it and reblog the word of the day with your handwriting. Step by step instruction:
1. Check a word of the day here on Proper Russian
2. Write it down on paper - preferably in cursive
3. Reblog the word of the day post with your handwriting added.
4. Repeat for the next 6 day, one week total
5. Get a prize: 100 most frequent Russian nouns - vocabulary card set (pdf, hi-res, printable)
I decided not to send out any physical items this time, because I don’t want to overload the postal services during the pandemic. Instead, I’ll send the printable pdfs to everyone who dares to participate.
Do you dare to practice Russian handwriting?
Good luck!
P.S.: I think it is going to be fun. My Russian handwriting is butt ugly, so the chances are your handwriting is better. Don’t be shy!
For those of you who haven’t been following me/7U, hello! I’m an amateur theatre songwriter, and since last fall, I’ve been writing a Fringe-esque full-length musical adaptation of The Umbrella Academy Season 1 (with key bits of influence from the comics). With 90% of the score written, much of America still shut down, and Season 2 slated for July 31st, I thought now would be the time to throw together a polished album, reading, or series of videos of the material as a collaborative fan-filmy project!
I’m currently seeking folks with experience in singing/acting, media production, editing, music supervising, etc. to workshop this with. Here is a link to a Google Drive folder with rough demos of the first two songs as well as the corresponding pages in the current script so one could get a feel for the tone. Anyone who’s interested, please shoot me an email at 7uMusical@gmail.com for more info! I’m opening this up to the Internet at large, so feel free to share this post wherever and with whomever :)
