a short description of my completely illogical danger days musical:
look alive sunshine and na na na are THE dance number. like. these songs are huge. it’s just the ensemble dancing around as killjoys while the fab four fuck around with each other. there’s absolutely a live band onstage with them with the instruments blended onto the set.
bulletproof heart is just firefights. not too much on this one (if you have an idea please tell me, i’d love to see your ideas on this completely hypothetical thing)
SING is where korse and the dracs are first seen, it maybe follows the video’s plot except. not at all. also where the girl shows up
planetary is another fun dance number except not as big as na na na. they’re running from korse except they’re also having fun and horsing around. there’s a big feeling that Bad Things Are Going To Happen
the only hope. like i said before, this is the song where jet and kobra die. they’re gone to get supplies and korse storms them. act one ends with them dead.
second act: party, ghoul and the girl are all waiting for jet and kobra to come back. anxious, party turns on the radio. cue Traffic Report Bomb.
party turns bitter with grief. they leave their hideout after Traffic Report, but Party Poison is just party lashing out at ghoul and the girl for trying to have fun like old times while jet and kobra are dead.
save yourself is when shit gets serious. korse is dangerously close to discovering them; the song is just one big fight scene/dance scene. party tries to go all Martyr and shuts ghoul and the girl in a closet while he attempts to fend off the dracs all by himself. he gets injured, ghoul kills the remaining dracs and the girl gets a hold of one of the rayguns. she shoots the last drac, which is an Oh Shit moment; she’s extremely young, too young to be killing, and yet they’ve driven her to this point.
S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W is them running again, but dodging every single little obstacle is a chore with party’s wounds. the girl is still trying to hold onto her innocence after killing someone, and it (killing) should be so casual in the zones, but it’s different with her. the bomb in the song, in this case, is korse.
summertime is when they reach dr. d’s hideout - show pony, dj hot chimp, newsagogo, cherri cola and dr. d are all there. this is the last bittersweet/happy song, with party and ghoul reminiscing about jet and kobra while surrounded by friends.
destroya is intense. korse finally catches up to them; it’s a fight scene again, but with more dancing. dr. d and co. manage to escape with the girl, but leave party and ghoul. party is injured again, badly, while ghoul is in the same position. (idk how to fit in the mythos of destroya and the phoenix witch??? maybe in spoken dialogue instead of the songs...)
the kids from yesterday is just party and ghoul talking to each other, remembering the “good ol’ days” while they’re slowly dying. they die at the end, and the phoenix witch shows up to take their masks (again, i need to fit in the mythos w/ her...).
goodnite dr. death is the girl, leaving from dr. d’s hideout. he signs off the end of the musical - he introduced it, and now gets to send it off. it sort of alludes to the timeline of the comics.
vampire money is the bows! just as energetic as na na na or planetary. such a fun ending to contrast the sadness.
this concludes my rambling about a thing that will never happen
