⚠️ DON’T START DISCOURSE ABOUT RPF IN THE NOTES!! YOU WILL BE BLOCKED IF YOU DO SO ⚠️
Reason:
“-They made each other laugh so much in the 60's that they and others would joke they should have a comedy show called 'The Mike and Micky Show'; this was the reason they titled their musical show the same name around 50 years later -As The Monkees began to fall apart as a band, Micky wrote a song (Shorty Blackwell) that was entirely about feeling sad, asking Mike about his feelings, criticizing Mike for being disinterested in The Monkees after fighting for musical control, and asking to find ‘a master’. On the same album Mike wrote a song (Carlisle Wheeling) which title shared a name of a character Micky played in a bit he and Micky did together, and was a love song apologizing for being distant and reflecting on passionate love. When singing the song outside of the context of The Monkees, he changes the name of the song. -Stayed friends and worked together after the breakup of The Monkees -Mike joined the other Monkees for one show on the reunion tour, after which Micky called it ‘an incredible thrill’ and Mike agreed and kissed him on the cheek. -Mike called Micky affectionate/teasing names, ‘my girl’ and ‘my soulmate’ -Would blow kisses to each other on stage -Micky continues to work closely with Mike’s family in his own musical endeavors. He also put out an album entirely of songs Mike wrote.”

Headcanon that Riptide and Blood in the Bayou exist in PD as a TV show and a movie respectively.
Riptide (TV) existed as a very long prolific pirate show, think some weird cross of Black Sails and Our Flag Means Death, but it got a Supernatural treatment. I’m talkin this shit started small, intending to be only 2 or 3 seasons long, but ended up with a long winded 16 seasons as the plots continued to develop further and further and escalate beyond imagination. By the time PD starts, the show has mercifully ended but the producers have been GUNNING for spinoffs (a Black Rose Pirates prequel has been rejected by the network three times; it may be for the best tbh)
Blood in the Bayou was originally an 80s horror movie, a classic, though relatively obscure. Hardcore movie goers have it, and collectors still have the original VHS copies (I have a separate personal headcanon that Mark likes to collect old stuff like old tech and classic physical media just for fun; he has the BitB VHS in the garage somewhere). Though it wasn’t really known by many, those who did know had a hardcore love for it. Enough so that eventually, BitB got picked up by some producers, and by modern day, Blood in the Bayou has had a full remake and is in theaters NOW
Some trivia about both medias:
- The actor that played Chip in Riptide (TV) was cast to play Timothy Rand in the BitB reboot. Many are delighted that he’s now moving to movie work post-Riptide’s end, especially since he was an unknown young actor prior to the show. (He’s now 36 years old. He began the show at 19)
- The actor cast for Rolan Deep is actually related to William Wisp, in that he’s like, an uncle’s cousin somewhere further on the family tree. Not closely related, but…
- Kian Stone’s actor is painfully offline. He’s unfamiliar with fandom stuff to an incredible degree. He did a “reading your thirst tweets” for a video and didn’t understand half of what was being said about him. This makes his interactions with Rand’s actor, who is familiar with All Of It, even more entertaining.
- Riptide (TV) is effectively the SPN in the PD universe. Yes, you had a Riptide phase in high school. Come on now. Rumblr was all about it. Harlem had a Riptide phase.
“what about apotheosis!!” oh everything that happened in Apotheosis is Real, Actually. it’s just on another plane/world probably.
(I haven’t watched Apotheosis idk anything about it but I like to imagine that everything there is very much real because that’s Funny to me)
