Fellow Hadestown/Scorpheus fans, please vote for Dylan Wood (and Desmonda if you love her too!!) in the Stalls to Stage awards ❤️

I have seen Dylan’s Orpheus three times now and he is so insanely under appreciated compared to the other Orpheus actors, I’d love for him to feel seen through this.

Awards — Stalls to Stage

I need a masterlist of all the Mark/Gemma Orpheus/Eurydice parallels NOWWW

she's dead

he's fighting his way back to her

the journey through the Lumon maze is his Road to Hell - he completes a feat that no innie ever has, just as Orpheus is the only mortal to complete the journey to Hell

In the final moments, when they're inches from freedom, he turns around...

Hey guys - I did a poll a while back to see where people would be interested in reading this fic and most people said AO3 or Tumblr - so I’ve uploaded the first chapter to AO3 and here’s the link! please enjoy :) and feel free to message me with any questions

Summary: 

Daphne Langford loves a good story - why else would she choose to study English at the University of Oxford? However, the freedom of third year finally allows her to extend her degree to a form of art she’s been waiting to explore: music.

After a night out gone wrong, enter Andrew, a cynical but driven postgraduate student with a passion for politics, mythology and all of the juicy theoretical expertise she needs to bring her thesis to life. Thinking they’ll never meet again, fate just so happens to put Andrew right in Daphne’s path… as her thesis supervisor.

Between stealing glances at formal dinners and chance encounters in the city of gleaming spires, will the ‘whiskey-glass-half-empty’ singer and the driven optimist allow themselves to cross the boundary between musical allegories and reality, or are the smoke and mirrors offered by the whimsical city of gleaming spires too perfect of an illusion to hide behind?

After all he’s been through, she just might be “too sweet” for him…

(I hope this can be the dry humour, dark academia teacher/student dynamic fic of your dreams - pls enjoy reading as much as I enjoy writing it xox)

"you're really a violent little thing, aren't you?"

[meddlingstarks]

We all love a classic ‘enemies to lovers’ situation. But do you know which subclass of this is underrated? 💘✨ Rivals To Lovers ✨💘We’ve got the tension from enemies to lovers, but with the stakes even higher:

Preserving a decades long family feud?

Opposing debate teams?

Fighting a battle royale in a death arena?

In most situations, the hatred isn't because they want to, but because they have to for the sake of the situation they're in - this makes the conflicting emotions so intense because

"mother I don't want to hate him", "well my dear it is your duty!"

"If I don't beat this kid I won't get into my dream school - but neither will she..."

"I could kill them right now to ensure my survival but they look super cute camouflaged as a rock ugh"

Ultimately, it often ends with a selfless act of the characters having to put aside their burning desire to win (or even stay alive) for the sake of their feelings for the other person, and I think that's rad <3

GUYS. when i say i love haymitch i do not mean the black-out drunk, 'violent' haymitch abernathy i quite literally mean the one that advocated against his tribute becoming a sex symbol/stopping the capitol from physically altering her body, the one that made hefty sacrifices for both his tributes at times, the one that sleeps with a knife and the lights on out of safety, the one haunted by his past with little sparks of hope left inside of the rubble of his current self. the one that did so much and was pretty much glossed over despite how much was revealed about him. the seam boy with a fire that never was put out, but dimmed as he grew. the one that outlived 47 tributes and manipulated the arena with his intelligence that is so HEAVILY slept on. THAT, is my haymitch. not the one that fell off the stage, or puked on the rug, or anything that would turn him into some sort of joke because he's not. to me he's a little like the hidden meaning of an art piece, symbolic and aching like the painter who put their feelings on canvas.

[meddlingstarks]

Can you believe they had the nerve, the gall, the gumption to cut when book Peeta says “You here to finish me off, sweetheart?”, one of the most iconic lines that established his flirty personality and cute banter with Katniss?? He’s literally in immense pain, dying from a leg injury, buried under a wall of mud that’s infecting the wound, and still has the energy to tease her. Not to mention the innuendo, come on.

The Gang x DnD

I was playing DnD last night and was thinking about how the gang are similar in the sense of being a ragtag group who fight monsters, so here are my headcanons for their DnD personas :)

Fred: Okay so Fred's alignment would be chaotic good; he'd have trap sense, disable device and specialise in trapmaking but he'd also have decent intelligence as he likes to make plans. Rogues are typically great at traps, but I definitely see him more as a trapper ranger due to his character and he'd be of greater strength than your typical nimble rogue.

Daphne: Rogue is what first springs to mind here as she's resourceful, up for combat, has great diplomacy and acrobatics and potentially a great bluff; I'd also put her at chaotic good because as we've seen she can be (brilliantly) unpredictable but ultimately everything she does is with her heart on her sleeve.

Velma: At first thought I'd lean towards sorcerer for Velma, but on further inspection I think perhaps a wizard, as she's more likely to have gone and studied for her magic than simply inheriting it. We all know she's smart but I think she'd also be good at communicating with nature, and less combat-focussed - definitely a lawful good alignment here.

Shaggy: As a master of distraction who's great at demoralising enemies and using disguise, Shaggy would be a bard. He's never afraid to play a tune and be the bait, before letting his teammates go in for the capture. Chaotic good for the Shagster.

Scooby: I considered making Scooby Shaggy's familiar (animal assistant pal basically) but I think he's got enough personality to have his own class and differentiate. Simply due to primal animalistic ferocity (which Scooby only really has when you mess with his friends), I'd say he could be a barbarian :) due to his heart of gold, I'd say lawful good.

Feel free to add any alternative thoughts! I'm relatively new to the DnD world so this is all just based on vibes. Here's some cool art I found too!:

Okay so. I just rewatched Stage Fright and I still can’t believe they really gave us this brazen piece of Fraphne fanfic. Here are my highlights/things I didn’t notice the first time:

We’re so used to just having little interactions or hints between them and feeding off the tiniest looks/comments that this movie rlly hits you like a TRUCK. Watching Daphne literally sing ‘I love you’ to Fred almost put me in a cardiac arrest.

We get to see more in this movie around the cute little friendships within the gang; Daphne goes to Velma for advice and they have an adorable sisterly bond, the same thing happens when Fred asks Shaggy and Scooby what to do. I’d like to think that this leads to Shaggy and Velma gossiping in the back of the van about how Fred and Daph just need to talk to each other and how oblivious they are.

When Scooby saves Shaggy and he gets head pats (not about Fraphne but it was super cute so shh)

How obviously neurodivergent Fraphne are in this - Daphne’s ADHD rambling as well as both of them being unable to read the extremely obvious social cues from each other. Even when Daphne admits her love to Velma, she’s genuinely convinced this is a secret nobody could figure out. I love them, our clueless losers <3

The way that Daphne looks at Fred when they're about to split up for the night (my profile pic rn, so cute)

How Daphne immediately clams up and stumbles over her words, rambling on nervously at even the slightest suggestion that they might be into each other (e.g. at the comment 'you two make a cute couple) - this is a girl who's canonically had her own tv show, sang in public multiple times, she's a confident speaker. But her crush on Fred makes her nervous :')

When Fred realises that Daphne's trying to throw the competition with the silly jokes after their performance, he picks it up straight away and goes full ham with a smile, he's happy to support her and have a bit of fun even though they're losing out on so much money and also embarrassing themselves on national television. But he doesn't care, he's just having a laugh with Daph.

The overwhelming frustration that comes with the credits scene where they’re about to officially confess and Velma interrupts them. I’m still in recovery as we speak.

Finally can we just appreciate Daphne's lyrics to Fred's song for a sec because I'm literally gonna implode:

We've been close a long time As close as friends can be, But in my heart's a secret For only you and me.

I've tried to tell it many times But my nerves got in the way, Well I can't wait another night To say what I must say

I love you (I love you) I love you, yes I do I love you (I love you)

The fact that immediately after this musical confession they finally kiss, organically, not caring that they're on national television or anything, they're just in their own little love bubble - if you need me I'll be in the corner crying
