Major cutie in s16 but apparently I’m the only one ready for that conversation
TGWDLM IS COMING BACK HOLY SHITTTTT!!!
TGWDLM was the first Starkid show I ever watched, I've been a fan ever since asfghfeubjdk the show still has a very special place in my heart because of this <33 AND NOW THEY'RE COMING BACK TO ME AAAA ALL MY FAVOURITES TED, PAUL, BILL THEY'RE ALL COMING BACK ASFDGHJFGHHJF
The timing is so perfect I'm literally in the middle of a Hatchetfield hyperfixation rn holy molyyyy never off yourselves kids!! Supes excited
Dennis is funny because Macs tried to heal a relationship outside the gang (his dad) but it failed immediately (rejected, unfair) and Charlie's done it too, even planned to leave, but also failed straight away (loser father up and died on him) and Frank doesn't want to leave, and Dee is not permitted to leave (not even to go bowling! they need their punch bag!) but Dennis has actually been out there. He's gone and tried it. He invested in a life outside of Paddy's Pub, he left and tried to go be a dad, be a better person than Frank was, and... it did not fuckin work! Couldn't do it. Came crawling right back after being gone for months. Which means he's the only one out of all of them that knows for sure there's nowhere else to go. None of the rest have really tested it—it's just a pipe dream for them—they can imagine it however they want! And that's a pretty useful psychological pressure valve. Their own places in the gang are inherently lower stakes for them because they can still believe if it all falls apart they'd figure something out, they got plenty of other options, definitely. They may worry there's nowhere else for them, sure, but you know what you can do with a worry? Move past it. Except for Dennis. Who knows he can't afford to rock the boat, or deviate too much from his assigned role, i.e. still very much the "leader" of the Freight Train, still their new psycho, even if he is a little mellowed with age. So he left because he wanted to quit all the delusional bullshit, wanted to try something real. Then found out "real" didn't want him in it. And came back to the gang, and for a little while he tried to make a change: The Gang Escapes, "let's keep this between us"; Times Up, "I don't want you kissing me" + [extensive instructions in how to not get caught]; Even up to New Wheels he's trying something new, til he embarrasses himself in front of Frank. Til fate hands him his old car back. And if reality don't want you, you're not gonna say no to fate, are you. At least he's got a place in the world. At least somebody wants him around, some kinda way. It's good actually. Who cares if it's not who he really is. He knows there's nothing else out there. The others don't, but he does. So he can keep his secrets, play his part, don't dwell on it, it's cool. It's whatever. After all it's not like you can just "move past" reality, can you. Can you?
My ability to make everything about my special interest (It's always sunny) should be studied frfr,,,, I could be watching literally anything and one of my first thoughts will be "how can I make this about Sunny?" asdsyhjuguguj,,, the blorbos will not leave me alone
Right now I'm writing a Sunny x Severance cross-over fanfic which started out as just a jokey silly idea, but has now evolved into a multi-chapter story with so many plotlines and details and references to both shows that it's sometimes hard to keep up :DD And I have so many more Sunny cross-over fic ideas after I'm done with this aafshffjggj the grind never stops,,,
Recently I also rewatched TGWDLM and I realised how similar Ted and Mac are to each other,,, they're both religious, they both do karate type moves, they both quote Borat and they're both assholes asdsyfhgh
I don't know what the point of this post is, I'm just haunted by the gang no matter how hard I try to get into other pieces of media adfdyfyghj,,, not that I'm complaining, of course :>
Finished a piece for the TGWDLM Reprise fake Playbill Mini-Zine Collab that @riveracheron is putting together!
I saw that the Ad for Spankoffski's Heart and Sole was open and jumped on it!
I really wanted an excuse to draw college age Ted (including the early Starkid Era Joey Headband) and then I had the idea that the Spankoffski's would want their ad to include their kids. I feel like at the time, Ted would've used this as a bragging point, and Pete would be forever embarrassed. In my own headcannon, the grammar mistake of Women's Shoe originates from this Ad and is a running inside joke between the Spankoffski brothers, which is why he says it in the Beanie's scene in NPMD (in the Digital Ticket version.)
This was fun and I would totally do something silly like this again :)
Sometimes I’m reminded that all of franks adopted children roofied him and shoved a load of anal beads up his ass and I think yep that’s my favourite show
Chapter 9 of The Gang Gets Severed is out now!! It's inspired by one of my favourite Sunny episodes, Chardee Macdennis!! I had a lot of fun with this one. Maybe a bit too much fun, since it's 5,2k words long :DDD I got carried away, I just had too many fun ideas and I wanted to do them all afgdgusbdu,,,, I promise the next chapters won't be as long haha :DD
