whizzer actually wasn’t insecure about his bald spot (like. post act 1 pre act 2) until marvin kept pointing it out

Mendel almost always does a side-smirk instead of smiling

(bonus points if he’s also doing a #quirky expression with the rest of his face)

the rare occasion he's not is when it's the biggest smile known to man

mendel is 100% a caffeine addict (hc)

easily. that man cannot function without a substantial amount of caffeine everyday. he needs it to get through the day or he simply wouldn't last.

The lesbians 100% have an inside joke that Cordelia is only with Charlotte for her money

at first it was a little uncomfortable. Cordelia didn't want Charlotte to every actually think that's why she was with her. She'd try to turn down any large or expensive gifts but Charlotte was insistent.

eventually as they became more secure in their relationship together, Cordelia made the joke first and ever since then it's been the funniest thing ever for the two of them

[falsettos-headcanons]

Cordelia with Peony please!

Peony: What is the best gift they have ever received from a parent, material or otherwise?

It was from Charlotte, the first time that Charlotte learned about Cordelia's passion for cooking and baking, she bought her a set of really nice pans and trays for her to work with. It was something that meant so much to Cordelia. It represented so much to her in early in their relationship, that Charlotte listened to her, cared about her interests and was supportive.

They didn't need to be the best supplies on the market, but Charlotte tried to make it something that would be the most helpful for Cordelia. The gift was just a random thing one day that Charlotte pulled out wanting to surprise her with.

Not a headcanon but I have to say, you showing up on my blog a few days after I ressurected my special interest in Falsettos via making my partner watch it with me was pretty fucking magical

The magic of Falsettos bringing people together- and the magic of Falsettos reviving this blog.

(But also same- my fixation is coming back on having rewatched it with a friend recently)

Marvin 💭

Marvin daydreams about marriage. What he always sort of dreamed it could be like. Not what he had with Trina, he knows that wasn't good for either of them. After working through the problems he had with Whizzer, he daydreams about what a real healthy marriage could look like. It's just too bad that his dreams are crushed, in more ways than one, he will not be able to marry Whizzer, no matter how much they both want it.

lavender for marvin please!

Lavender: How do they calm down in moments of major stress?

Marvin is a very tactile person. Dealing with his anger and stress is very physical in his body as it builds up. So in order to calm himself down, usually he needs to physically do something. A lot of the time he can be seen rubbing his hands together, opening and closing his hands, or cracking his knuckles. When he needs to calm down, he also likes things that are soft, he's got an old teddy bear of Jason's and while it isn't the softest thing anymore- he just likes holding it.

Or when Whizzer is around, Marvin can frequently be found playing with Whizzer's hands and fingers. Or even running his fingers through Whizzer's hair and playing with it.

[falsettos-headcanons]

Mendel and Marvin have been buddies since freshman year of high school. In "Marvin's Giddy Seizures," Chip Zien (original Marvin and Mendel) says, "Marvin's my best friend in school." Sure, he does play him in "In Trousers," but I can't help imagining them being friends. And to add on to this, Mendel's been treating Marvin since it was legally possible for him to do so.

Whizzer despises the idea of rings. He doesn't like how such a small thing holds so much power, but it also reminds him of when him and Marvin were first together and the tears and heartbreak that his marriage to Trina ended in. It signifies broken promises and his parents. But also how two people could marry without ever even being in love, but gay people couldn't no matter how hard they tried.

It's never been important to him. It's a point of contention for a little bit between the two of them. Marvin talks about getting Whizzer a ring, but Whizzer can't express why a ring just doesn't fit for him. Finding the words at first as a struggle. One day they revisit the conversation once Whizzer can explain how he feels about it and all of a sudden, Marvin doesn't argue it anymore, he knows Whizzer is right. He lived through a ring not really carrying much weight when he'd slip it off when looking for men.

They find something else instead. Something that just means enough to them to represent themselves connected to one another.

Whizzer owns three films on VHS. Cabaret, Rocky Horror Picture Show, and Grease. Marvin has no clue how he got these.

Whizzer also doesn't remember how he ended up with these three but here they are, and he loves these movies. He's made Marvin watch them with him a few times. Which Marvin may not be the biggest fan of the movies, he just likes sitting with Whizzer on the couch and the TV doesn't matter.

so I kinda died for a while there, but I notice new people still following this blog, I'm kinda getting Falsettos beyond just listening to the st again recently, if you've got headcanons or suggestions, feel free to send them in.

[falsettos-headcanons]

I headcanon that Charlotte and Mendel would totally be into crime tv-shows. The shows freak Cordelia out, Trina finds them unrealistic, Marvin criticises them, and for Whizzer it's a little bit too close to stuff he's actually witnessed. But Mendel and Charlotte have taken it upon themselves to educate Jason in the world of Magnum PI, Cagney and Lacey, and Dynasty.

I think Cordelia collects little plushies and/or funny hats. When Charlotte had longer shifts in the hospital Cordelia hugs her plushies. Charlotte thinks its adorable (did i mention that their bedroom is full of those?) A ridiculous hc i know but i think its adorable
