I saw a couple tweets that suggested that the TGWDLM rerun should give the infected makeup and
Absolutely not?? The whole POINT is that they're indistinguishable from the non-infected!! If it's a diegetic appearance, then why would Hidgens point a gun at them and force them to sing the beginning of Moana? If it's non-diegetic, why not just say you don't trust the audience to engage with it and you hate your own plot twist reveals?
Sorry, I have a lot of Thoughts and Feelings on this particular aspect. The production I saw a few months ago did this and I called it "the cardinal sin of the apotheosis"
*Lizzie McGuire voice* Mac McDonald is an outfit repeater!!
a.k.a. every outfit from the Abbott crossover 😭
He apparently did the cameo in 2 seconds, so here, lol. Also, he does think I'm the official Ted artist in the fandom 😭 honor
Remember, these are just actor headcanons, nothing official 👍
Ted genuinely loves Pete
Hes' very romantic, but he puts on a facade of a bullshit guy cause he wants to seem cool
He does think Paul is his best friend
Ted's one of those guys who doesn't wear pants at home, he's just in boxers
He does wear a tie tho, in case he needs to go out or have a zoom meeting
He uses excessive amount of cologne
Ted constantly goes on dates. Most women in Hatchetfield have "gone on a date" with him, but they last 5 minutes cause how much of a terrible guy Ted is
Lot of people know him in town and think he's a creep
All his deaths need to be embarrassing
Always orders take-out, never cooks for himself
He takes Pete out constantly and tries to be cool in front of him, but Pete is embarrassed by him, but still thinks he's cool (side note is that Joey'd like a NMT episode of Bill and Alice hanging out and Ted and Pete hanging out)
Ted loves dogs and maybe has a dog at home we don't know about
the idea of Ruth as a trans allegory has me crying in the club
(SPOILERS FOR NERDY PRUDES MUST DIE GO WATCH IT ITS AMAZING)
the idea of discovering something more to yourself that you want to show the world, but feel stuck in what people say you need to be rather than what you really are hits really close to home
Max Jagerman saying “you’re a nerd cause I said so. i willed it into existence.” represents how the more acceptable, “normal” people project what someone is supposed to be onto them without considering what they truly are, to keep them in a box, a box that Ruth is trying to break out of
when Max is presumed dead, it represents those expectations being lifted off of those who were affected, allowing people like Richie to be confident in who they are and make friends
even though Ruth doesn’t know exactly what she is yet, she finds her passion for being in the spotlight at the beginning of “Just For Once”, singing about how she now knows she wants to be in the spotlight
lines that talk about her character growing old, talking about how she’s disappointed with where her life is, maybe reflects how she’s feels about growing up herself, being scared of a future where she has to live as someone she isn’t or with someone she doesn’t want to be with
her repetition of “just for once,” in the song reflects many of the thoughts that other trans people have, often imagining ultimatums like “if only I had a button that turned me into a (preferred gender)” or “if I could just wear this outfit just for one event,” or “if I could just be a (preferred gender) for one day”
“just for once I’d feel the spark that I once knew” reflects feelings of many trans people who realized they weren’t cis around high school, where Ruth is, and searched to find that feeling again, but felt trapped by expectations by parents or others
“should I flip the burgers now? should I double check it’s well done on the outside, not within?” her indecisiveness reflects one of her main character traits, that she is riddled with anxiety, a common struggle that trans people experience, her anxiety makes scenarios that even though people are starting to accept her after Max’s death, that she’d still be ridiculed, or that it isn’t right for her to be who she is
her musicality shows her in bursts of confidence, like at the end with her lengthening the last note and letting it trail off, setting it free, only to go completely silent, highlighting the duality of her confidence in her new self, and fear of change (the last note always kills me it makes me tear up everytime)
what makes it even more gut-wrenching is that she isn’t able to feel the freedom of living her dream
the trailing off repetition of “i used to dance” after talking about giving away her tap shoes, representing her surrender to anxiety and fear, giving up on her dreams of being a performer, before being killed by Max
“Life is fine, if only it were mine.”
Holloweane, because I've been rewatching Nightmare Time and it reminded me how much I love them.

how the fucky-wucky did you even get accounts here?
I was recently told AO3 is currently being plagued by bots that comment on people’s works and falsely claim their fics were AI generated. and I can see how vile and discouraging hearing that is for authors who put so much time, effort and dedication into creating their fics.
now listen to me, if you ever get a comment like this on your work, please please please please know that they’re most definitely bot who comments the same thing on dozens of people’s works at random without ever reading the works. at all. they just copy and paste the same script onto random fics, any fic they come across.
they’re bots with malicious intentions, and they most certainly want you to lose motivation and/or delete your works. DON’T GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT.
if you ever get a comment like this, just delete the comment and/or report it to AO3.
remember that their comments don’t mean your works look “AI generated”. it only means these bots come across your fic and leave the same copy and pasted comment on it like they do to other writers.
don’t let them make you question yourself. they’re nothing but spam bots. YOU are a writer and you are fucking awesome.
