I Don’t Think Anything Can Quite Compare To The Unbridled Joy Of A Queer Teenager Who Knew That Their

now that the tgwdlm revamp is announced we're gonna support it, okay guys? we're not gonna complain that its not a different musical. the more we hype this one, the more likely they are to do the same for an older musical. okay guys?

Idk if this is what you meant or not but I like the idea of Max and Richie being stuck in a time loop and reliving the first act of NPMD until they both survive. At first they just try to save themselves and it doesn’t work, and then they realize they also have to save each other

needlessly sad thought for the evening is that we don’t technically see Max or Richie alive in NPMD since act 1 is a flashback and they both die during act 1.

this (prolly) doesn’t mean anything and I’m over thinking but I’ve always enjoyed toying around with a sort of time loop idea. like they’re both stuck repeating both of their deaths until something changes, but the rest of their peers move on and forget about them

Max Jägerman truly truly truly I feel is a kid that needed. NEEDED. to be believed in. And he was never taught how to present an authentic, unironic self, or how to be loved, because his father very much sounds like a man who wants his children to "respect" him and parents with fear as his main tool of gaining power. So he couldn't intimidate the adults in his life early on, because he was a kid, so he turned to his peers, because they could be controlled exactly the same way his dad controlled him-- fear. Teachers would write him off as a bully as a result. He probably gets his only really positive attention from his jock friends (who he has scared into being unchallenging yesmen who are unconditionally supporting) and any praise he gets from his quarterback role. I feel like he REALLY depended on being the star quarterback for emotional support (probably along with the partying-- if your peers find you fun, that's almost like being loved). Get the boy a good father figure please

I wish they would have Jon play more insane people. I really need to see more of him crashing tf out

VENUS!VENUS!VENUS!VENUS!

I find the idea of post-apocalyptic Paulkins very interesting.

Do you think they deny any type of therapy at first because they’ve been “normal” their whole lives. They don’t need that.

Do think Emma gets another job as a barista but quits the first day. Because all she can think about is the last time that she brewed coffee, and the scars and shaking that didn’t cover her hands back then.

Do you think they still cling onto each other like wild animals any time they get a moment of peace, as if there’s a zombie mob coming to break their door down and ruin it.

Do you think Paul can even hear music without freaking out, ten times worse than before? Can Emma?

They were strangers a month ago. Do you think they can even breathe when the other is out of their sight? Do you think they want to?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HANNAH FOSTER AND THE DAY THE HATCHETFIELD TIMELINE SPLIT!!!!

There’s a lot of untapped potential with parental figures for Max. Obv we’ve seen Paul because he’s like. The most popular adult in Hatchetfield.

But have you considered Emma meeting Max through Paul, and being a better match for him because she was an edgy prick as a teenager, so she gets him in a way Paul can’t.

Or, less beneficially, Ted as an older brother figure. Maybe they could meet through Pete if Max has enough of a redemption to be friends-ish with him. I think Ted would also be way more understanding because Max is honestly just Ted but younger and more athletic. Simultaneous character arcs. Or maybe not maybe they’re just awful forever idk

If you wanna get into some LiB/PIEP shenanigans. You could go with Holloway! Tbh I haven’t seen NMT so I haven’t got much for this. But it seems interesting enough.

Or John! Max has to move out or hide from his dad after some inciting event. He gets sick of hopping around between houses of people who kind of don’t like him, so John(probably the only person without a grudge against him) takes him in. You got your classic troubled teen and emotionally closed-off adult pairing. Bonus points if Max is queer and that’s like the only emotional situation John is comfortable in because he dealt with it, too.

There’s so much! So much!

Just realised Hannah would be 19 today. Isn't that crazy?????

I’m still stuck on Will with grey hair

I know we're all excited for Will as Hidgens, but I can't get buff Hidgens out of my head 😭😭

Hidgens has not been skipping gym while preparing for the end of the world ☄️

Aromantic Grace is legitimately such an interesting head canon I feel like we should talk about it more.
