There is a lesson to be learned here , and Silver doesn’t know what lesson that is. It will come to him, and even if it doesn’t, it will be okay.

For now, he sleeps. And in his dreams, James is always there. And then he wakes, and James is there still. This, Silver thinks, must be happiness. He is happy.

Isn’t he?

Monster archive here, though none of the examples I doodled for this are actual existing monsters; I just thought this would be fun to make!

Like the opening says, these are the things I do for this setting, not the things I think you should do (or even what I do in other settings) but if you design things at all, for any reason, think about what “principles” or “guidelines” you would list out yourself.

If you were directing another artist to match your work, how would you explain it to them?

What interests and tastes are repeatedly expressed by how you design things?

What would “generic” examples of your style look like?

If you have multiple series or settings, do they all share the same set of visual trends or do they differ?

Can you think of any personal preferences you would be happier to indulge more? Is there good reason you haven’t?

EVEN IF I DONT COMMENT BACK I WOULD BE EXTREMELY, EXTREMELY ENTHUSED TO READ ANYTHING YOU ADD ABOUT YOUR OWN WORK IN A REBLOG SO PLEASE DON’T THINK THAT’S RUDE OR WEIRD OR BORING TO DO

A non-comprehensive list of lines from earlier versions of Hadestown that were cut from the Broadway version and which I mourn daily. Might add to this later. Might also someday make a list of lines that were added for Broadway that bopped enormously to create spiritual balance. Bold is actually meant as emphasis for once. 

Ruminations on Hades and capitalism:

“King of diamonds, king of spades / Hades was king of a kingdom of dirt / miners of mines, diggers of graves / they bowed down to Hades who gave them work / and they bowed down to Hades who made them sweat / who paid them their wages and set them about / digging and dredging and dragging the depths of the Earth to turn its insides out / singing la la la la la la la.”

—Epic 1, original concept album and Epic 2, NYTW live recording.

(note: Anaïs Mitchell said ¡¡Keep it in the ground!!)


“The heart of the king loves everything / like the hammer loves the nail.”

—Epic 2, original concept album, and Epic III, NYTW live recording.

(note: I fell in love with this line at 13 and never got over it. This line actually permanently shares a file in my brain with a Zadie Smith quote from White Teeth, “Oh he loves her, just as the English loved India and Africa and Ireland.”)

“And Hades is king of the scythe and the sword / he covers the world in the color of rust / he scrapes the sky and scars the earth / and he comes down heavy and hard on us.”

—Epic 2, original concept album and Epic III, NYTW live recording.

(note: the condemnation of industrialization and urbanization..skyscrapers and mining as a physical wound inflicted on nature…also the consonance…)

these are hands down some of my favourite lines from hadestown fave
