Thoughts on the little mermaid
I may be misremembering but didn't it feel like very painful to walk at some point after her transformation? Like the fact she's dancing makes me wonder if she's doing it by choice (my immediate image before I even realized it was probably the little mermaid was that she was delirious for some reason, maybe bc Cinderella wasn't like "yeah she's dancing and seems to be like. At peace" she just seems lost??)
Trying to figure out about the walking thing bit TV tropes reminded me: in the story mermaids DONT have an afterlife, iirc they fully become inanimate sea foam. How does this interact with Neverafter?? It seems like she persists between stories so I doubt it's like 'when mermaids die they stay dead instead of existing again' or whatever but at the same time this could be like way more fucked up if they do get another life? Bc while it's Unnatural for everyone one else it's like afterlife isn't super far from reincarnation they're not Close but there's a comparison to make about life/death/life again or whatever but if that part of mermaid lore is Canon in neveragyer uh. Well that's. Something
Also at the end spoilers for little mermaid the original one doesn't she like... become a daughter of the air. I fully forgot this Part and came back to write this but anyway that's interesting I forget where I was going with it though
read the Wikipedia article and it says that she "will be able to dance like no human has ever danced before. However, she will constantly feel as if she is walking on sharp knives" can we please get someone to prescribe her some painkillers
In the original story she also dances like for the prince... which... is curious. Is there a prince present on toy island?
SPEAKING OF toy island is like 12-14 year Olds right? So this brings up the question: how old is she? Did she just lice in the sea near the island or did she end up there because she's a kid or both?
Ylfa sister??? It would be really cool to contrast "transformation that makes you feel ugly and dangerous but gives you the ability to literally lessen the damage you take" and "transformation that makes you supernaturally graceful but causes you excruciating pain when you make use of that grace" like. Neither is Less Bad but they're so... hhhhhhh
Edit: generally the little mermaid is 15. Which would put her a Bit above the generally given age range (8-14?) Of toy island. Also the stepmother isn't special most of these girls don't have names

a friend asked why my url across platforms is always ohwhatagloomyshow & I explained that I had the honor of meeting Stephen Sondheim in 2013, where I built up the courage to thank him for his work and tell him the revival of Follies was the first show I’d ever seen on Broadway. He smiled and said kindly, “oh, what a gloomy show!” because I’m a 19 year old newborn baby praising a show about midlife crises.
Anyway, I told the friend it’s probably Sondheim’s gloomiest show, but that’s probably a debatable opinion! I would love to hear any arguments against it! I would say that of all his shows, it’s the one that ends with the least amount of hope. My definition of “gloomiest show” is most dependent on how you feel when you leave the theater, and in this case I do think Follies takes the cake, personally!
Full disclosure, the shows I’m least familiar with of Sondheim’s are Merrily & Passion.

My mom gave me her old cameras last night. She didn’t tell me what they are, she just gave me two unmarked bags while we were leaving the movies and when I cracked them open this morning I found a couple of nice 35mm SLRs and a couple of absolutely huge fuckin zoom lenses for them 😍

Hi guys!
Sage here. I am so sorry for not following up with the wedding! My mom was too lazy too help me 🤡. Anyways!
The wedding was amazing! A bunch of other kids came and people kept on coming up to us throughout the day wishing me and Lunar a happy marriage. One guy even said he wanted us to get a cottage in the woods and have tadpoles. I don’t plan on having tadpoles anytime soon if ever, but a cottage in the woods is something I could get used to lol
Sage out!
