are you thinking about how ruths fantasising about life as a 40 year old mother because that mother wouldve lived a life. wouldve been a star at some point. but now shes dimmed and caved in.
and ruth feels like she already got to that part. shes only a teenager but she thinks shes there already. she reached her peak long ago, but she can fantasise about a life lived to the fullest before plateauing like she feels she already has. and considering what follows her song, shes right.
she peaked before she ever got a chance to live.
i used to dance.
...i used to dance.

i will never be done defending just for once as one of the best songs ive heard from starkid so far. ive flipped through a few of the older non hatchetfield musicals and its STILL towards the top of my list. maybe its because shes ME in another world. if id switched schools earlier, or been "too gay" or "too smart" for the boys in fifth grade. if my shoulder had never healed and i had to quit dance years too early. just for once is a gorgeous, incredible representation of what it feels like to watch everything, even your own life, happen, watch it all from the outside, and never be able to take charge of it.
ruth fleming is a wonderful, weird, gross character and not enough people are cheering for her. in this essay i will

as much as i love the idea of the lords in black all having their favourite kiddos and pokey liking ruth the most, i feel like it'd make more sense for him to just,,, really hate her. she doesn't pose a challenge with her wants- she wants a girlfriend, a boyfriend, anyone. ruth wants attention, both in life and onstage, that's what all of 'just for once' is all about. and what does pokey himself love? attention. he's the singular voice: he wants to join the world in a hivemind he controls, not a drop of individuality because they all share one voice. his voice. ruth desperately wants her voice to be heard, but pokey wants his own to control all. still though, i keep imagining them exchanging their thoughts on musicals in the black & white after she dies.

SHE USED TO DANCE !!!!!: incomprehensible rambling by me, who just saw npmd a second time w/ my parents today
god. ruth is just so so tragic to me. shes known as the funny desperate sex-deprived hormones girl for the whole musical. and then when they take 10 in play rehearsal she's finally all alone. she shows that shes been thinking about if she were in the barbecue monologues and/or has been thinking about one of the characters from them and expanding on them, adding her own personal overarching story of wanting attention and feeling like everything's getting bleaker as she gets older, realizing that the chances of doing what she wanted to do were Not Likely! we get those little moments of how the character reflects on everything in the past, having just turned 40 that day. all the little stories told throughout the song, the desperation yet depression in her voice, and the fact that her second to last line before the murder happens is:
"i used to dance..."
holy fucking shit.
she gets a chance of having her character fleshed out, to be a real person with her own conflicts, to get attention from the audience. AND THEN SHE DIES. her legacy is forever to be a nerdy prude no one liked who got killed in the murder spree. and theres something so fucking poetic about a humiliating life AND a humiliating death. a big fucking wedgie. im just. AUGH
ps right before the song came on i mentioned to my parents that this was my favorite song in the musical and then when she sang that first line my dad said to me "big into windows huh?"

Nerdy Prudes Characters as Filipino food!
The second coming because I couldn’t stay away
Steph - Lumpia
Tumblr media
- A popular dish for a popular girl
- Lumpia’s typically filled with meat, veggies, and sometimes fish!
- An absolutely beloved food for anyone who’s tried it
- Steph would immediately put these on her plate if she saw them at a party
Pete - Champorado
Tumblr media
- Imagine if hot chocolate was a porridge
- This was the most obvious answer for Pete
- He’d be eating this to get through the day
- I think he’d like evap milk better w/ his champorado, but has condensed milk for his blood sugar
Richie - Tocilog
Tumblr media
- Richie gets a nice, full breakfast of sweet cured meat, eggs, and garlic fried rice
- Another beloved food for a beloved character
- I personally believe this man would instantly get hooked on garlic fried rice
- Like suddenly he’s having it with every meal
- Packs it in a bento box for school too
Ruth - Chicken Feet
Tumblr media
- It’s not too freaky when you actually try it!
- Just give it a chance!
- Give Ruth a chance :(
- Alternatively, she is Filipino spaghetti in ways I cannot explain
Max - Lechon
Tumblr media
- The life of the party
- The center of attention amongst the food
- Yk the party’s gonna hit when they bring Lechon
- Max would think it’d be so fucking cool if he pulled up to a party and saw it at the food table
Grace - Brazo de Mercedes
Tumblr media
- Super light, super airy, an almost angelic dessert
- Brazo de Mercedes is a meringue roll typically filled with some kind of custard with powdered sugar on the outside
- A dessert befitting of miss chasity herself
- I can see Grace trying it at a bakery and being astonished at how fluffy it is
- It’s like a cloud in your mouth!!
- Must be what angels eat up in heaven
