And then 40 years later, Andrew Lloyd Webber found a lost cat poem that T.S. Eliot had cut from the cat book for being too sad for children, and ALW was like “woahhh. A cat….that’s sad. That’s deep, man. I wanna make a musical out of this”

So the producer assigned to the project was like “okay, I guess you could maybe read these cat poems as a satire of 1930s British society? We could probably do something sort of interesting with that, I’m thinking a cast of about 5 and–”

And ALW was like “no. Forget the satire. Also I want a cast of dozens and the most advanced special effects technology ever seen on stage. I’ve taken out a second mortgage on my house to fund this”

And the producer was like “wh– you– wh– do you even have. a plot”

So ALW got a bunch of actors and writers and artists together and they holed up and did cocaine workshopped for 5 weeks, and at the end of it they emerged and said “the plot is that a bunch of cats are having a dance contest for the right to take a ufo to cat heaven :)”

Vs Vox who did everything to hurt Alastor as much as possible, in every way he can think of.

Grabs him in away that minimizes harm (yeah ik befor throwing him into a building.) Compared to Vox who grabs him more aggressively and electriced him.

When ever Voxs body is hurt he doesn't make pained noices Alastor knows his weak point is his screen.

Vs Vox who deliberately goes for Alastor's weak spot as he is pinned to the wall already.

He electures him while he's already trapped in his chair not going anywhere

He trys to kill Alastor as Shock.wav has him pinned agin.

And then when he was on the ground like this Vox tried to shoot him agin. He was going to shoot him and then it happend to trun out it would kill everyone in the porcess.

I'm literally so tired of some people saying "uwu vox doesn't want to hurt Alastor" and some of their arguments were somewhat convincing and i even started doubting my writing of vox. But NO, I WAS RIGHT. HE DOESN'T SHY FROM HURTING ALASTOR, AT ALL.

Like, people comparing scenes where Vox electricuting Alastor vs Angel, and say that like "uwu vox uses thin wires on Alastor cuz he doesnt want to hurt him", and somehow they say that Vox used MORE power to electricute Angel, ARE YOU SERIOUS RIGHT NOW? When Vox is electricuting Alastor, the whole room gets lit up, electricity is running on the floor, vs Angel... He probably used less on Angel because he wouldn't survive more, and Vox needed him alive, but like how in the world you can say that he hurt Angel more than Alastor. Come on.

Now i'm confident again.

My personal headcanon is that Vox actually gets turned on when he hurts Alastor, as a sadistic freak.

Websites to chart your story/plot/character relationships

1) Search for: watch TITLE OF WORK free online

2) Scroll to the bottom of results. Click any of the "Complaint" links

3) You will be taken to a long list of links that were removed for copyright infringement. Use the 'find' function to search for the name of the show/movie you were originally searching for. You will get something like this (specifics removed because if you love an illegal streaming site you don't post its url on social media)

4) each of these links is to a website where you can stream shit for free. go to the individual websites and search for your show/movie. you might have to copy-paste a few before you find exactly what you're looking, but the whole process only takes a minute. the speed/quality is usually the same as on netflix/whatever, and they even have subtitles! (make sure to use an adblocker though, these sites are funded by annoying popups)

In conclusion, if you do this often enough you will start recognizing the most dependable websites, and you can just bookmark those instead. (note: this is completely separate from torrenting, which is also a beautiful thing but requires different software and a vpn)

Option 1: try the DuckDuckGo search engine instead (bonus: dedicated to privacy! doesn't track your data!)

2026 UPDATE:

Some character designs with some…atypical color choices? I guess. I don’t know what’s going on in that area.

This is Nimona and her supervillain friend (He doesn’t have a name yet, I’m working on that). Nimona is his sidekick/squire, they’re like the Batman and Robin of slightly Medieval villains, but she’s actually way more evil than him. He does what he does to make a point, and he doesn’t really want anyone get hurt - Nimona just gets a kick out of destroying stuff.

YYYYOOOOOOOO!!!!!
