do you ever think about how ocean was implied to be the first one to notice that the ride was broken and they were all absolutely fucked? in like every intro song (not uranium suite but uranium suite is mid anyways) there's at least one line that shows her having knowledge beforehand. in fall fair suite there's this line from ONLY OCEAN!! while everyone else dances around and sings the background vocals. but her line is, "had a strange feeling from the start. bought out tickets stood in line, a rickety cart. i did not feel safe at all. tick-a-tick-a heard the crack!" and then they all say "felt the drop, now i know im never going back!" but she could tell even leading up to the drop that they were going to die. in the choreography of "waiting for the drop", in the moment before the drop of the ride, ocean is like set aside from the rest of the choir and she has a look of absolute terror on her face because she KNOWS. she knows that these are her final moments alive. there isn't anything in tragic fact but idk the other two are pretty compelling to me! imagine how absolutely horrifying that must have been, knowing that you and your closest friends are all about to die on some stupid carnival ride. she had the time to think about everything the other members didn't. like the fact that she would never get to leave uranium no matter what she did, she would be stuck there for eternity. she wouldn't be known for her real accomplishments but for simply dying on a rollercoaster. she could've thought about anything and everything in those final moments. no one else even knew they were going to die until they were already falling, ocean had time to think about it and that's arguably so much worse. yeah, me neither.
