i headcanon noel as filipino because i am filipino and also kin noel
noel gruber? i hardly know her!
okay so first off! disclaimer! i am both reform and currently struggling with my belief in god, so take everything i say with a grain of salt. conservative jews would have different perspectives and orthodox jews would have different perspectives. i also refuse to consult my rabbi for a fandom post, so here goes.
on secular judaism: well, if ocean had a bat mitzvah, that would indicate at least going to shul and sunday school regularly - though this does seem like more her choice than her parents’. a bat mitzvah requires a LOT of studying, plus understanding the text enough to be able to interpret it in a way that fits your values. i’m of the opinion that she does go to services even after her bat mitzvah is over and done with. however, ocean as a character is very- i don’t know how to say it. perhaps only looking out for herself? not believing in any sort of force up in the sky keeping her life on track. i believe it would have been mentioned somewhere at least. so perhaps she just continues going as a way to find community - shul is good for that.
i do think as for the major holidays (pesach and the high holy days - no, chanukah’s not major, i just like to pretend it is) she would view them in a more secular light? not “oh, we honor god by celebrating this”, more “i am jewish, this is what jewish people do”. she would probably participate in the high holy days choir, read torah, all that jazz - but more to be successful in one more aspect of her life than because of a belief in god.
i cannot tell you anything about her being catholic and how that would intersect. i’ve been to a church maybe three times in my life. and if ocean is a member of the congregation of her own free will, she would probably be under less scrutiny then if her parents are members as well (christian mother, jewish father)
also! i’m pretty sure in canon st. cassians is the only school in uranium. i know several jewish people who go to catholic school because it’s the only one in their area.
@moonmoonthecrabking this got LONG i am so sorry
NO SERIOUSLY THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS IS SO INFORMATIVE AND I REALLY APPRECIATE IT!!!!!!!!!!!
hi guys tumblr just let me back into this account (read: i got a new laptop and completely forgot the password for this account until now)
i'm back to talk about religion (i saw someone on here talking about ocean's entire thing w/ having a bat mitzvah and confirmation and it got me thinking, i think it was @/pheliau ??)
(TW for mentions of religion, primarily catholicism for those who need it!! stay safe friends)
(im not jewish so i cannot offer any insight into that aspect of ocean's character, but i am vaguely* catholic so i will be speaking from that perspective!)
back for a hot sec to post something im proud of!!!

i just KNOW ocean and noel definitely roleplayed as mermaids when they were kids
i got the bowl cut noel idea from @/holografrick btw
my favorite video game quest trope is "HELP US, THEY ARE STEALING OUR ANCIENT ARTIFACT. THANK YOU FOR HELPING US, AS A REWARD YOU MAY HAVE OUR ANCIENT ARTIFACT"
the ancient artifact was less important than having agency in its distribution
Nothing is more important than keeping it out of the hands of the British museum
so okay you know how there's different mischas in all the us performances and how rtcblr mainly has access to 2016, 2018, and 2019?? well, here i have some notes i have that i think provide insight into how each actor has a different interpretation of mischa!!
2016: this is gus' mischa that we've mostly been collectively thirsting over. the most notable difference is that he's not using his ukrainian accent, but a us (possibly canadian??) one. i think this increases the divide between his true self and the person he pretends to be for the sake of the town. he feels like he needs to fit in and show of his middle-class wealth that he didn't have in ukraine. it also highlights how mischa's rage is in part created by the town, how he may have been far more passionate in ukraine, and is only filled with rage so much now that he must live amongst his mother's murderers. something else i saw for No Reason At All is that he doesn't do a body roll when his shirt is ripped open? he just stands there? and i think that this means halper's mischa feels like he has to have this sense of stability, rather than sexualisation. this tracks with fall fair, in which he says "sex... why did i wait?". granted, he has a desire for it, but it's something he hasn't canonically engaged in, and possibly doesn't want to be associated with it as a result. that being said, he still grabs his dick the most. back to the stability thing, he feels like he has to be a provider, he has to steal the communion wine for his cousin, he has to give noel vodka and comfort (notice how noel hugs him while they're sitting down and bonding individually), he has to look after everyone, like he couldn't look after his mother, or the choir on the rollercoaster. maybe that's why he jumps away from noel in disgust when they land in limbo - not because of fruity feelings, but because he doesn't like how noel has his arms around him, rather than the other way around. he is internally a wounded bird, so he overcompensates by making sure no one else feels that way. also: i don't know where this comes into analysis but since mischa is a baritone part, the actors don't necessarily have to be in chest voice for all of this song is awesome. standley and duffy are, but halper uses falsetto for the higher bits in tsia!!
2018: adam's mischa is far more of an awkward teenager, he slouches a lot in the rap section of his performance, and he tends to have shorter, more run-together rhythms. however, in the choruses, when he's directly engaging with constance and ricky, he is far more confident and looks up more. he also takes a photo with ricky in the "0101011" bit!! from this, i get that standley's mischa cares a lot about his relationships with others and finds more value in that than other versions of the character. he's showing the most of himself off in the bridge, making eye contact, his shirt buttons open, body-rolling, when he is surrounded by the rest of the choir. i'd also argue that he's the most "sexual" (i'm using airquotes bc literally none of them do anything otherwise this would be a very different show") in how he performs with constance. he also checks out the girls in the line (btw this doesn't "disprove" nischa for me, because i think a through-line of this song its performative nature and therefore performative heterosexuality"). in the second chorus, he puts his arm around her while she feels his chest, indicating that this version of the character has greater sexual desires than the others, or that he wants to be perceived as such more (i'd have to see/listen to a full show with standley performing as mischa).
2019: i think that chaz's mischa has the most actual confidence of these three versions? by this, i mean that his doesn't seem performative in the same way as gus' or adam's (although, again, i'd need to see the whole show for this). he seems a lot more self-assured, which fits with the "rupaul's drag race" line change, as that indicates that he is secure in his sexuality, whatever that may be. also, i just want to point out how noel is basically spanking ocean in the hard rock cafe bit. like this is how noel and ocean perceive heterosexuality. amazing, i love it. duffy's mischa also makes the most use of the stage - even in his independent rap parts, he moves around a lot and looks at the audience, kind of like a concert (she says, having never been to a rap concert). he seems far more confident of his life's awesomeness rather than the other mischas, who almost need to convince themselves. it's possible that this is a more developed mischa, who's ready to move on and is already grateful for what he got despite his tragic circumstances. all he misses is talia and his mother. and, the line "feeling homesick for my homies in the ukraine/landing in kyiv before we finish off the champagne" is rapped in a way that makes it feel as though he is much more certain that he will be able to give those things to them. maybe this mischa views "what's behind the curtain" as his friends and family before coming to uranium.
