The Hatchetfield Bee is one of the only characters in TGWDLM who isn't in any other stories. We know nothing about her.
The Smoke Club, even if not the characters by name, gets referenced multiple times in other stories. Deb gets mentioned in Watcher World. We know Man in a Hurry's and Greenpeace Girl's names now. Melissa and the Homeless Man have whole Nightmare Time stories based on them. Grace Chasity and Hot Chocolate Boy get upgraded to main characters in NPMD.
But nothing for the Hatchetfield Bee. Not even an official script name.
What is her story? What is her deal? What lead to her being in the choir room on that fateful day, singing Not Your Seed to Bill Woodward?
I need to know.

Sure, Paul might be Pokey's trophy, as he's the titular guy who didn't like musicals, but Emma is the one Pokey hates the most.
The opening number (and Emma's presence in it) points to the entirety of TGWDLM being an in-universe musical to lure new members to the hive (in the form of us, the audience). So Emma and Paul are only being puppeted to echo their resistances, over and over and over.
Paul is distressed the whole time, but he's also a hero, he tries to save everyone (and fails, of course), while Emma is left to bleed and limp and scream. She's puppeted in a mockery of her fear and agony. Other deaths are bloodier, but hers is drawn out.
And this makes perfect sense for Pokey. What's the main thing we know about him?
He hates any voice that isn't his own.
Paul is outspoken about disliking musicals, but otherwise is a pretty passive guy. He doesn't make waves or stand out, he's too shy to even ask Emma out until the end of the world.
Emma is loud, opinionated, defiant. She has a very distinct voice.
Paul escapes Pokey for so long because he just doesn't like musicals, helping him avoid the traps that probably caught most of the townsfolk early on. If he liked musicals, or even tolerated them, he'd probably have been consumed by the goo pretty quickly.
Emma actively defies the hive. She starts the story in a job where she is literally required to sing and dance, and instead of just going with it she says fuck you and quits. She even clarifies that she could do it if she wanted, but she just doesn't want to.
Pokey has constructed the entire show to lure in new victims and also torture Emma specifically. In this essay I will

Once again watching Black Friday and feeling compelled to confess that the fifteen minutes when they hit us with What Do You Say / Our Doors are Open / Feast or Famine back to back is still one of my top five Starkid experiences.
I just lived out a scene irl that you would expect to see in a fanfic tagged: #slowburn #unrequited love #friends to lovers
Call me Lex Foster cause I need to get to California
I firmly believe that the next show in The Lands That Are is going to be an adaption of Snow White, likely called Snow White's Castle. Here's everything I've figured so far:
I think Ragweed will return. In CC, he mentions "six sturdy dwarves", which would make a total of seven dwarves. He also mentions slaying goblins, and I definitely think making the seven dwarves a Tolkien-inspired adventuring party would be a fun, dark fantasy twist
Furthermore, on the map of The Lands That Are, we see "Rockhammer's Hut", likely Ragweed and the other six dwarves' home. The Hut is situated close by "The Witch Queen's Castle", which I believe will belong to Snow White's wicked stepmother.
I have further cause to believe the Witch Queen is the stepmother from the livestreams during the CC kickstarter campaign. One of the tier levels is Witchglass
Now forgive me for not knowing the exact stream name, I'm going off memory here. But Nick went on to explain the Witchglass is a special material created by witches to trap demons. He then hinted "think of a fairytale that has a witch talking to glass". I believe this means the magic mirror in the story will actually be a demon trapped inside glass.
Speaking of the kickstarter, we also have these fellas from the original launch video. These puppets weren't in CC, but bears a striking similarity to Ragweed. It's most likely these were just early versions of Ragweed, but they could also be other dwarf characters we haven't met yet
And my final piece, which is pure wild speculation, is the Grizzwald girls' brother. I think he may be the Huntsman. Now, I know this is a bit of a throwaway line, probably just meant as joke, but having the Huntsman be a troll/monster hunter would be exactly the kind of dark fantasy twist I can see in the Lands That Are
So that's everything I've gathered. I expect to be either vindicated or completely wrong when the next show is announced.
And when Joey Richter does a quick change into Hot Chocolate Boy during the first scene at Beanies during the TGWDLM revival...

At some point in your life, you were taught that being slightly annoying is an unforgivable sin. Maybe it was by your parents or a teacher or a friend or a bully or an older sibling. But someone taught you that being slightly annoying is a crime punishable by death.
You must unlearn this.
You must accept that all people will be annoying at some point or another in their lives, maybe all of their lives, and that this is okay. It is okay for strangers on the bus, it is okay for children in the grocery store, it is okay for people on social media, and it is okay for you.
If you ever want to truly love your fellow humans, if you ever want to truly love yourself, you must have forgiveness for being annoying.
Guys some of you will never be able to understand the cultural reset that was TGWDLM. For a brief moment there was this beautiful union between old and new fans. Everyone was so nice and appreciated all the actors. For so many casual Starkid fans this show is was changed that. COVID literally hadn’t even happened. Show stopping number was genuinely the only thing anyone listened to for MONTHS. Life was good…

(A poem I wrote yesterday, below the cut.)
Can I admit something funny? Ever since I first watched Wreck it Ralph (when it came out) I keep thinking that the word 'glitch' is a slur in the real world. Anytime anyone uses it I wince and have to actively remind myself that it's not a bad word. Every time I think of the word or have to say it I feel really guilty. I have no clue why I think this way or how to stop. It's kind of actually a problem for me lol.
Headcanon: Tadius didn't wait so long to kill the King because he didn't know how. He was perfectly prepared. He was just waiting for someone worthy to be in line to inherit the throne. As soon as he knew the crown would go to Ella, that's when he knew it was safe to act.
Absolutely hit the nail exactly on the head

bryce charles as ella ashmore is THE best casting decision they could’ve made hands down. every one of her songs is so difficult vocally and she makes them sound beautiful and look easy. she has spot on comedic timing and sells all her one liners, then in multiple scenes of the same show she’s fully sobbing her eyes out and screaming in pain. she brings depth to her heavy scenes and light into her upbeat ones. her dramatic acting is FLAWLESS, she helps the audience understand the gravity of everything ella’s enduring even in a show with a lot of melodramatic and fantastical elements. ella goes through the widest range of emotional experiences by far and bryce nails the portrayal of each and every one - fear, rage, guilt, grief, elation, love, disgust, vengeance, hope. she has a clear stage presence and is able to hold her own when she’s the only one onstage. her dance numbers are beautiful and she nails all her (one million pieces of) choreography. and once again i have to comment on her vocals like you have to be SO GOOD to sing those songs as well as she did even once let alone for the full run of the show. if i sounded like her i would never shut up. bryce charles is the true definition of a triple threat and i knew i would be impressed by her performance as ella ashmore but wow. just wow. blown away doesnt even begin to cover it
Sometimes I feel like I'm still not over the opening of Black Friday. The fake commercial... the wiggly jingle... the sniggle costumes... the paulkins reveal... You had to be there, and I still am.
