I finally finished A Kind of Spark and I HIGHLY recommend it! I can’t tell you the times I teared up, smiled, gasped, wanted to slap my computer screen (not a good idea since I just got this one a few months ago, lol.)
I also wonder how on earth Mrs. Murphy (the teacher) is even qualified to teach children in the first place. I’m not gonna spoil it, but she made me SO MAD!
Again, I could go on and on and on about it, but while I would love a second season, I am actually happy with the way season one ended, so I’m good either way.

wondering about Frank and insects but specifically about how it looks like the WH insects are highly stylized, so does Frank even know anything about real butteflies/insects?
& if he saw a real one, would he recognize it? are all of the species names he applies to the WH bugs real, or are they all made up like "Vibrant Eyespot" or "Fluttering Heartwing"?
and then there's the question - does the neighborhood have some of the more 'undesirable' bugs like moths, worms, roaches, spiders? does it have bugs outside of the generic groups of beetles and butterflies? like are there mantids? leafbugs? dragonflies? weevils? or are those too specific/complex/not-cute for the Playfellow Workshop to have included?
and then there's the question of what are the bugs? props? puppets? are they alive or do the neighbors just perceive them as such? Do they even exist outside of art, storybooks, and animated segments? I highly doubt they're alive like the neighbors are, since in the gif of Frank's head spinning, the framed butterflies' wings are moving. which is kind of horrifying if you think about it for more than a second.
just... the critters Frank loves so so so much being a complete fabrication... every piece of knowledge he prides himself on / delights in knowing being utterly Untrue... oof

I exist, in the missed steps of your way to self discipline.
In tragedy and inspiration
In broken tradition and consequence satisfaction.
I exist,
despite being stepped over and made to feel inferior.
A moment in time separating stillbirth from abortion
A choice, to be unidentified
Like a work of art that everyone claims to have its rights
Yet no one have the privilege to touch.
I exist, a simple fact that makes those who view the world cursorily uncomfortable;
and I refuse to apologize.
I exist, somewhere between the lines.
Something they’re not sharp enough to understand
I exist in lost credit cards and offhanded remarks
A puzzle with more pieces than they know where to place, but i can’t be solved with less
they said it’s high maintenance.
Yet I compartmentalize and I exist.
I exist in the journey of searching for answers to questions they never asked.
In never ending childlike wonder
In nameless hours, before tomorrow but not today.
I exist despite lacking confirmation I exist despite stigmatization.
I exist,
In petals that can only smell good when crushed and boiled..
In vivid dreams that we mistake for memories
I exist in idyllic poetry that tastes bitter if not read at the right time
A ripe fruit that’s forbidden
It’s never the right time to taste me but i still am the way you dream to be loved,
even when you know I have potential to be rotten.
More than a desire less than a demand
I can be yours to admire…
I’m not.
But i do, I exist.
