I Would Like, If I May, To Take You On A Strange Journey

In December of 2024, me and @lumpsdumbyumeblog decided to create a Rocky Horror ARG together, "It's Gotta Be DTV". He told me to create a website and a Tumblr Account. However, since then, I have gotten far too attached to the Rocky Horror Community on Tumblr.

So, what do I do now?

Well, there are now two pieces of ACTUAL Rocky Horror lost media that I am searching for. "There's A Light" By Kimi and Ritz, an early draft of "Over At The Frankenstein Place" by Richard O'Brien and his at the time wife, Kimi Wong. And, "Riff Raff's Story Lab", a Windows '98 DVD extra from the Rocky Horror Picture Show 25th anniversary DVD that has no info for it whatsoever. EDIT!!! RIFF RAFF'S STORY LAB HAS BEEN FOUND!!

I have an AU that is always growing and that I will sometimes (a lot) post about. It is called the "Frank Show" AU and is based on Revenge Of The Old Queen but if Shock Treatment had happened. Also I made Lordy into a trans lesbian and Judy into a fat black woman and they're both asexual and they have buddy cop adventures together :D

I am also working on going as IN DEPTH as possible into the history and fandom of Rocky Horror in a project that has not been named yet. It is over 2000 words long and still growing somebody pick me up I'm scared.

By the way, my name is John, but I'm looking to change that soon. My pronouns are he/it. Thank you for coming to my blog, it truly means the world to me.

(Also my DMs are always open please ask me about my projects I want to infodump so bad)

ATIA for getting seduced?

I (25M, straight) and my fiance (25F, straight) had a wild engagement party, to say the least. It was originally just supposed to be between us and our old science teacher (60M, straight), but things took a turn when we ended up at this weird party thing?

There was this guy there (???M, gay) and he dressed up as my fiance to seduce me while I was asleep in one of the rooms of the house. He then revealed himself right before having sex with me, which I'll admit, was very nice sex, but still! He manipulated me!

Apparently me fiance saw over the cameras and thought it would be a great idea for her to get her revenge by sleeping with the guy's boyfriend! Other things happened after that that I will not mention out of respect for all parties involved, but on the car ride home, both my fiance and my old science teacher called me an asshole.

it's almost risen to the point of memedom in our friend group. It makes me sad because she wants to call off our engagement even though she revenge cheated on me. AITA?

I have a Shocky Hadestown AU I'm cooking but this will suffice for now

I think everyone who posts discourse about how Rocky Horror is bad queer rep should be strapped to a chair and forced to watch Pink Flamingos. I think it would make them all a whole lot less annoying. It might kill some of them, but the dead can't post discourse, so...

Idk who she is but im in love with her rn

[dtvhomeofhappiness]

So I can only assume you're talking about me...

Anyway, she was the one to sing Science Fiction Double Feature in the OG stage show. In the screenshots provided, she is played by Patricia Quinn, better known as portraying Magenta in the movie. She sang the songs with much more energy than the lips. She is also usually double cast with Magenta's actress.

As Brian Thomson, her original concept man said to me, she was born when him and Jim Sharman went to a single screen theater showing of Cabaret. There were many things before the movie, and during intermission, this girl, dressed in pink to sell ice cream and that sort of thing came to the front of the theater and stood there, smiling, waiting for someone to buy something from her. Nobody did.

The usherette was then born. I suggest the OG London cast recording of Science Fiction Double Feature and Reprise to really get a feel for Pat Quinn's portrayal.

(PS, you should draw Shirlee as her...)

i seem to be in a predicament… don’t help me tho i’m fine where i am

[nateconnolly]

These days, lots of public libraries have a "library of things" collection where you can check out kitchen appliances or yard tools or toys, and, as a children's library assistant, the most popular library of things item that I handle regularly is a plastic scepter thingy called like "unicorn princess magic wand". And whenever I check it out I make a big show of looking at the little kid and being like "do you solemnly swear to use your unicorn princess magic powers only for good and never for evil?"

And pretty much without fail, the little kid will get the world's most mischievous grin and go "I'm gonna use it for EVIL!!!"
