Lesbian Laura Palmer is real to me. Way she feels control in how the men around her love her as a way to combat the abuse she faces from her own father, but her love for women being so pure she feels she doesn't deserve it.

Fictional Character Ask: Crystal, Ronette and Chiffon from the musical Little Shop of Horrors

Favorite thing about them: I love the great music they sing, their enthusiasm, their clever remarks, and their creative role as semi-interactive narrators who exist partly within the story and partly as outside commentators. They're very fun characters.

Least favorite thing about them: The fact that it's ambiguous whether they're on the side of humanity or the side of Audrey II, although that ambiguity makes them interesting.

Three things I have in common with them:

*I like to sing and dance.

*I root for Audrey to get away from Orin and get together with Seymour.

*I'm multi-talented, or at least I like to think I am.

Three things I don't have in common with them:

*I'm not black.

*I"m not part of a singing trio.

*I'm definitely human and part of the real world, no mysterious ambiguity.

Favorite line: The lyrics to the title song, "Little Shop of Horrors."

brOTP: Each other and Audrey.

OTP: None.

nOTP: Orin, Mr. Mushnik, or Audrey II.

Random headcanon: They're three of the Muses from Hercules, in disguise (as is typical of goddesses and gods) and using assumed 1960s names to tell a new mythic story. Alan Menken has openly admitted that he went back to the style of Little Shop of Horrors for the score of Hercules, and the Muses are clearly spiritual successors to the three girls from LSOH. So why shouldn't we imagine a stronger connection between them?

Unpopular opinion: I don't know if this is unpopular, but it's different than what some people have written on TV Tropes, so I'll use it. While I accept that it's ambiguous, I don't like to think they're villains. If they were, the racial implications, with the only three black characters plus the black-coded Audrey II as villains while the "good guys" are white, would be very unfortunate. (Although technically, Seymour and Audrey don't have to be white, they just traditionally are.) I'd rather think that they're simply outside of the story's world. Maybe it's all just a fictional story to them, just like it is to us, despite their ability to sometimes step into it and interact with the characters. They genuinely sympathize with Seymour and Audrey, and they want to warn the world to beware of Audrey II. But they already know the ending, they can't change it, and in the stage version and the director's cut of the movie, they know the tragedy will serve their message of "Don't Feed the Plants." Hence why they sometimes seem to urge Seymour to kill for Audrey II – it's not that they want him to, but they know he's going to anyway, and their job is to tell the story of how it happens to warn others not to repeat his mistakes.

Song I associate with them:

"Little Shop of Horrors."

'Ya Never Know"

"Some Fun Now"

"Finale (Don't Feed the Plants)"
