#he's not in Epic i just think he's neat.

[ravenmoodle]

I have been diagnosed with Greek mythology brain rot by Epic The Musical.

Here's Poseidon.

Designed very inspired by @wolfythewitch and @gigizetz take on him- they do the anamatics. you know the ones.

#my art #Epic the musical #Poseidon #also kinda referenced the Hades game but a lot less directly #character design #i might do dionysus next- i have a few ideas. #he's not in Epic i just think he's neat. #that hair took my forever by the way. love his lil fish tail braid tho

[raindrop-rouge]

I’m listening to Epic: The Musical for the MILLIONTH time and got really excited about the use of names in the show - one thing in particular. 

Most of the characters are introduced with their name announced immediately before or after their very first line (with more or less intensity, ranging from a single call of it to POSEIDON POSEIDON POSEIDON POSEIDON--)

And then you get to Penelope’s song (WHAT A SONG WHAT A WOMAN) - and she’s not announced by anyone, nor is she interrupted as she sings to be named (until a bit later). BUT!! it’s not that it doesn’t matter who she is: her theme gives her away, it plays before she begins to sing, and at that point, the audience knows VERY WELL who those notes stand for, who this woman must be. She is virtually the only character in the entire Odyssey deemed not to need a verbal introduction. I love that. I love it so much.

So, I assume that it’s because this is Odysseus’s story, and she’s the centre of his universe, and so it shows her importance (Telemachus isn’t introduced either, for likely similar reasons, but also he is the only kid in the musical so. fairly obvious - and another character never expressly named is Zeus himself, because again, not really needed). But then I wondered - how is Odysseus himself introduced? 

THAT’S RIGHT: in the very first song, when it kicks off, the audience does not know who is singing. I personally assumed it would be Agamemnon, actually, King of the Greeks; when he was named in the song, I thought, odd, but perhaps then this is Menelaus, his brother, the reason everyone is here in the first place? Nope. Named as well. Ah. Neo’s here and told to avenge his father, so Achilles is already gone. Then who? 

And there he says it, for the first time: Penelope. That’s the giveaway! THAT is what tells the audience who this man is - his relationship to his wife. The protagonist of this story is Penelope’s husband, Odysseus. Not the King of Ithaca; not son of Laertes (as would be the traditional way). It’s just such a great way to introduce him (and a good reversal of defining women based on their connections to powerful men...)

Anyway I got REALLY excited about this lol my inbox is open if anyone wants to talk about it and curb my posting, which atm is my only outlet :)))

#Epic: the musical #epic #musicals #the odyssey #musical theater #meta #rouge rambles #LOOK I KNOW I KNOW not everyone is named #but no one cares about polyphemus #(sad kinda) but he just goes as the cyclops #the suitors are one big mass it literally does not matter who the main one is #WHAT I AM SAYING IS #telemachus and penelope are as important as zeus to Odysseus #and it's shown in this subtle way #and I think it's really neat #greek mythology #mythology

if i had to stop at only one headcanon about casey jr and future raph ever its that middle ground where casey did know him just when he was younger so the vibe is 

someone asks about future raph at some point and with ALL the same reverence of talking about greatest ninjas greatest inventors mystic masters amazing commanders and their big heroic battles etc etc casey is just like “he called me little snapper bc when i first met him i was like 3 and i tried to bite him. when i was 7 he looped a rope around his arm and stood there with it held out for hours so i could play on a swing. he was my best friend.”

#rottmnt #rottmnt raph #rottmnt casey jr #i just think theyre neat #idk that its my voted most likely headcanon at all #i feel like if they did s3 and explored it it would be that he didnt really know him and therefore didnt mourn him #and maybe it makes it easier to be around him sometimes bc all he knew were little stories and mentions etc #but i do love the idea that like for a while raph was just Resistances Best Uncle and he never lost his big soft heart or gentleness #and that his legacy after he was gone was one of love and kindness and protection #little moments and not so much epic heroic fights #(i mean im sure future leo and mikey and donnie and EVERYONE left legacies w casey that arent just Epic Future Stories) #(hero worship and fresh grief and trying to bolster them without being like oh ur dead the future SUCKS sucks aside) #but this post isnt abt them it is abt the raph angle #the rise raph legacy of he made it feel safe to laugh he made it feel like he could carry anyone through anything if they needed him

I’m fairly new to the fandom, but I do have a question if you can answer it! Why do people ship Daigo with Aoki / Masato? I tried looking to see if they’ve interacted before, but couldn’t find anything! Sorry for asking I’m just </3 dumb AND I LOVE YOUR ART OF THEM!!! Nerd looking ahhhhhh

hi ! welcome to the community i hope you're having a lovely time so far and ty for enjoyin my stuff :) no need for apologies it's a very fair question to have :]

i cant speak for everyone (all. ten people into masadai anyway) but Personally To Me i just think the idea of them together is very funny. thats quite literally it im afraid..

#snap chats #//twenty page google doc in the background// ignore that. it's mostly for comedic purposes #might also be my fault idk sorry about that. allegedly. idk ive had like three people tell me they started to ship them cause of me 🧍‍♂️ #@mementoasts is another person who's drawn masadai and whose stuff i love and am inspod by .. i love their disneyland fic sm ... #there was another artist on twitter who posted a neat drawing of them but i cant remember who they were and i didnt bookmark it //screams// #recently there's been ANOTHER masadai artist ive started following on twitter - @wifekiryu. his account's n/s/f/w fyi before you go looking #he has a tumblr too @foxdies. i say cause i realized as much recently vjeaKLGJALKGJ #oh but I GUESS ill get deeper into why. /i/ personally ship masadai or whatever #first off they're opposing factions yet their character alignments Do Not Match their roles. stereotypically anyway #aoki who leads the 'surface' of society and is meant to be an admirable figure and someone 'just' when really. he sucks LMAO #though that's not atypical of politicians but just from a stereotypical This Is A Respectable Individual perspective of his role #daigo on the other hand leads the 'underbelly' of society- yk comprised of dangerous criminals and outcasts and whatnot #yet as we know him daigo's compassionate and considerate of his men- he doesnt treat them like tools like aoki does #if put in a room with the two daigo would be most people's choice of person to hang out with. probably open a trapdoor on aoki tbh #and i think thats really cool and epic i always love that kinda Subverting Expectations thing #theres also the fact they both started off like. edgy/angsty in the franchise and then brush up down the line #masato does a stronger 180. publicly. obviously but its still really funny they both have to get their act together #if you wanna talk about in-text reasons. there really is none LMAO I TELLS YOU masadai is pure crack #but if i wanted to pull a muscle reaching then there's daigo being on aoki's side while everyone else is on arakawa's during the funeral #im lying of course. mitsu was behind him. rgg tryna make me forget mitsu exist .... put him back in y8 .... #and ofc ichi joins that side to even out the seating but moving on another Goofy Reason is arakawa being like #'the chairman and my son are like p much the same age Surely he knows how he thinks :)' #and then i just think daigo being all smarmy about outsmarting aoki is really goofy and im choosing to interpret that as personal #they both also have issues with their dad. s. dad/s/. anyway. #tbh the google doc tag was a joke but i really could sit here and list every dumb reason why i think theyre funny together #like i started going over the tag limit so uhhhh yeah needless to say i have a lot of. dumb reasons 💀💀💀💀 #one day ill use the main text for long rambles like this but todays not that day Point Is my imagination is rampant im afraid #so the short and sweet of it is I Think It's Funny. And They'd Be Terrible Together. Which Is Why It's Funny. #and the unfortunate part is anything i find funny i obsess over for a year so. //gestures to the mountain of bullshit thats my masadai tag/

Thinking about how in The Horse and the Infant there’s a secondary beat that starts to play after he brings up Penelope and Telemachus, drops off once the other soldiers pick up in the background again (or becomes covered by the rest of the score and I can’t pick up on it as easily?) but then returns and stands out even more strongly against the rest of the music after he screams in pain and Zeus explains the vision. It drops off again while Odysseus is asking what threat an infant could pose, then comes back when Zeus is explaining he has to do this or his people will die/Ithaca will be in trouble (with another focus on Penelope) and it mimics the sound of a heartbeat

Bum. Bum bum. Bum. Bum bum.

#epic the musical #personal #it mighttttt be present for the entire song and I just am unable to pick up on it due to the general strength of the instruments prior to #when the music softens for Penelope and then changes again for Zeus and his appearance #so if it IS in the entire song and I just can’t pick up on it that’s also incredibly neat since it shows his heartbeat in battle #but I /think/ it starts when he shows the vulnerability of longing for home? #it drops off or gets muffled when he starts to sing with the soldiers again #and comes back after he screams and #drops back off right before the music changes to introduce the baby? #I’ve listened to that like minute and a half stretch of song about 15 times trying to pick up the secondary beat so again I’m not sure #if it’s actually there or if my brain is filling in the beat for me since I’m trying to listen for it so many times in a row #and it goes bum. bum bum. #bum. bum bum. over and over #it REALLY just sounds like a heartbeat to me and it would make sense considering he’s singing about his wife and son #then in pain and urgency for the beginning of the vision introduction #UPDATE it comes back into focus again when Zeus is explaining why he has to kill the baby #so once again a huge sense of urgency and vulnerability there #will probably try to think about this more when it is not past 4:30 am #so I can listen for it in the symphony of other instruments and elements better

[theghostofwilburtheworm]

they should make an resident evil 3 remake just for me personally

#im not that familiar with how hyped the re fandom is of the tough of a new re3 remake (i think most of em really want a code veronica #one which fair) but i just really want to see my favorite monster lad nemesis get a good treatment bc they did him so poorly in the re3 #remake and its so annoying cuz nemesis is like one of THE best re monsters (in the original) he is so scary and the fact that he is a #stalker monster just adds to that he can also wield weapons and is faster and stronger than the player and he is so scary and coool!!! #and also his design is ssoooo much better in the original with him not looking like a silly melted blob and having a neat little #trench coat and having some cool stitches on his face! and i think that'll look epic on hd and also they could expand more on #the story on how he was made and also i just think if they make an re3 remake with the quality and epicness of the re4 remake #itll be so cool #anyway here we conclude the infodump about my current hyperfixation!! #gh0ost txt #i don't know if i want to tag this as re cuz im honestly a bit scared of going there

thinking abt how gale and wyll are both hopeless/devoted romantics, but with a very different flavor to them

wyll believes in the grand tales of romance, writing your story together and witnessing your very own epic tale, the true power of love, wanting to court you in the traditional way, being your knight in shining armor, making sure you never want for anything — the beauty of an ending through your own making, your happily-ever-after.

while gale is more spiritual in his approach to romance. he believes in the bond between souls, true connection and devotion that defies even physical factors, something otherwordly and magical that solely exists between the two of you, a merging of body and mind, getting lost in one another and choosing you each day anew. — he doesn't believe in fate, but he does believe in serendipity.

what they do have in common, however, is wanting to dedicate themselves to their partner with their whole heart. i just think they're both really neat and deserve to be appreciated more by the fandom as a whole!!

Circe saga thoughts?

HMMM

Ranking wise based on favorites I think it would be

1. Wouldn't you like

2. There are other ways

3. Done for

4. Puppeteer

Wouldn't you like and there are other ways are tied for me but WYL is a clearer visual animatic wise haha and I love hermes. Big fan of the line "I can't get you home but I'll get you to the underworld instead"

Big sad though that time isn't as emphasized in the musical. But it wouldn't really fit haha.

Was very surprised that Jorge went down the route of Odysseus flat out saying no but I respect it lmao, the controversy from that storyline alone would be insufferable. It does make me a little bit nervous about how Calypso will be handled (I do Not like the current snippets of her songs)

Puppeteer's flow throws me off a little bit and I'm not a fan but it's funky. I'm personally not a big fan of the rap parts of epic in general (it kind of depends ig. Monster was neat but here it isn't as seamless)

Big fan of Hermes did that I mention that. Especially the end of WYL, I like the vocalization it tickles my brain

Done For is pretty neat, and I like it! They changed the way Circe said "Hermes gave it to you didn't he" and I am sad about that. But still. Can never go wrong with a song about threatening to murder each other. I have an almost complete animatic of that so I could probably just add some stuff to the start and end and have a done for animatic ready lmaoo

feat. a lighthearted joke that will likely be triggering to people with religious paranoia, so please don’t read this if you get that

Moving from one bug-infested house into a temporary house that is seemingly also bug-infested as someone who has developed a fear of bugs for this exact reason feels like a very personally-motivated act of god

#it sucks because I don't even wanna be afraid of bugs I think they're neat little guys #I used to like them lmao #I get so upset asking my dad to deal with them instead of dealing w/them myself because he kills them but I can't do it 90% of the time :(( #they shouldn't have to die just because they walked into the wrong place by mistake #sorry for being melodramatic I'm having a moment #maybe if my doctor let me have my panic attack medication I could calm down but they literally won't give it to me so that's very epic /s
