#and tada

[beyond-this-illusion]

13 years ago today I got to see Hugh Panaro perform in "The Phantom of the Opera" for the first time. Today being his last performance in "Masquerade" is a bit of a gut punch.

I jumped back into the fandom after seeing him, Paul, and Francesca in "Masquerade" in August. When I think of Phantom, I think of my college years. The rush of nostalgia that followed seeing "Masquerade" for the first time was a welcome change, especially as I've had a very difficult year in my personal life. Returning to the online fandom, a place where I kept on the periphery in the past, led to so many new friends (shout-out to @wheel-of-fish and @glassprism for orchestrating the weekly streams!).

I guess what I'm getting at is that hearing about Hugh leaving hit me pretty hard. He being in this role represents a part of my life that I've revisited these past few months and have found comfort in.

So random tadc au that popped into my head while trying to sleep but uh

Tadc infinity train au

Basically its the tadc characters but instead of transporting to the digital circus they get transported on the train, and have to deal with their problems and like it being controlled by Caine ig. But idk if it goes like the first season of Infinity Train, where Caine is kicked out and just chilling in one of the rooms, and who replaces him, je ne sais pas. 

All the NPC’s would be denizens, and all the train cars would be cains adventures, like the Candy land adventure would be the candy land car, or the fast food adventure would be a car where you have to serve fast food to a certain number of people to get to the next door, ect ect. 

Pomni would be the main character, obvi, and she’d start in the circus car, if I decide if Ciane goes the one one route he’d be there too.  

Jax would be part of the Apex, and got separated from the Apex group because he got stuck on an adventure or they just forgot him? Idk In my notes it says they Pomni and him meet in the Glonks room (yes that's separate) but idk.

They meet Ragatha in the candy room, and then Zooble with Gangle in the fast food simulator room (my examples lol), and then Kinger is maybe in an insect room, which would be fun (not) for Ragatha. 

Idk what the abstracted people would be, people that got their number to zero? Ooo, maybe right when Pomni gets on the train she sees Kaufmo get his exit and leave and so she’s trying to figure out how to get her exit, thus creating the whole finding the exit thing she had like in episode one. 

If people like this I might write/draw some more of this, but I doubt it.

I predict that Keith's mark on his right cheek is actually some kind of scar. Or maybe just a real mark and not a weird shadow (I want my son to have a cool mark)

i don’t think it’d be a scar :o it’s too similar to krolia’s markings, so it’ll definitely be something that appears bc of his galra heritage. as for how it appears, i’m not entirely sure alsdalkd
