My Roman Empire is when, Marvin’s highschool sweetheart puts the Columbus hat on Trina signifying that she is now one of Marvin’s exe’s, and she too is wearing a hat.
LIKE THE WRITING IS SO GOOD AUGH 😩

Yk what I’m thinking about? I’m thinking about Marvin recovering from Whizzer’s death, piece by piece. I’m thinking about him focusing a lot more of his time on Jason, probably transitioning to a more joint custody. I’m thinking about him finding more of the queer community to support him during his loss. I’m thinking about him finally resolving his shit with Mendel and apologizing for accusing him of fucking everything up. I’m thinking about Trina and Marvin being friends and grieving together. I’m thinking about Charlotte and Cordelia adopting a kid, and Marvin helping them take care of it.
I’m thinking about Marvin growing up, out of Falsettoland.

No idea what in trousers was, but the music scratches my brain perfectly.

"My father said that one day I'd grow up to be president"
Every time I hear that line, I imagine pre-divorce Trina forcing Marvin to talk to his own son, because he's super distant. And Marvin, who has no idea how to talk to children just says "Yeah, you'll be president, kiddo. Ahaha".

Killing myself over Falsettoland beginning and ending with the same music that In Trousers starts and ends with. There is nothing more to Marvin’s story, the “dream” is over. He’s no longer “in trousers” - no longer putting on that facade of masculinity but it doesn’t matter. He lost his love.

What do you mean Marvin wore Whizzers tie to Jason’s bar mitzvah. What do you mean Whizzer grabs it and goes “is this mine.” And Marvin replies for him to relax. What do you mean. I’m stressing William finn.

took me ages but i finished! :)
unlikely lovers always makes me tear up a little, sometimes more than what would i do just because they’re so.. hopeful, yet not?? and they’re still trying to find the best in it. supporting each other and loving in spite of it. love makes me sad sometimes. or maybe im just emotional rn lmfao

I know this might hurt to hear for some but the ending of Falsettos is the necessary climax and conclusion to all of the men's character arcs.
Bill Finn didn't write it just to be a downer ending. He wrote it so Marvin would have to overcome his misogyny and take on a caregiving role and so he could learn to rely on his family for support.
He wrote it so Whizzer would have to overcome his pride and allow himself to be cared for and loved. To bring him and his family together.
He wrote it to knock Mendel down from his g-d complex. To show him he doesn't have the answers, that he has to help his family process their feelings instead of just pretending everything is fine.
He wrote it to teach Jason to give up his king, to concede, to learn from his mistakes. To teach him about being a man.
Whizzer's death happens at the end of Jason's bar mitzvah because it symbolizes all four men finally growing up. Becoming men. It is their final step out of falsettoland. Ignoring the ending robs them of their growth.

there’s comedian funny and there’s lunch table funny, and I imagine that most comedians would also be lunch table funny, but there are a lot of peoples who are witty in conversation that wouldn’t be good at writing a comedy sketch or doing stand-up
