HOW DO YOU LIKE.. MAKE WARNINGS FOR THINGS ???!???? REHHFHFHF

Throws this silly cover art idea for this damn play I made at high speeds and forgets i have a tumblr account for another month

Once again, I'm on my way to merge these two polar opposites

Now as you already know, Confessions Of A Teenage Blockhead was completely based off of Peanuts but Bert ran with only a 20% of their actual personalities and didn't even keep the names, only some key character traits.

However, that doesn't mean I can't take elements of the comics and slap them on the play too to give it some more depth.

One of the things that broke me was Beethoven's anguish because CB didn't stand up for him, which in his opinion made it worse than him actually partaking in the bullying and the hell everyone else made. This is dangerous on it's own, but if you're a comic or cartoon nerd like me you'll notice why this is worse.

Beethoven always stood up for CB when they were kids, and if you take in consideration the timeline; it was right during (if not before) being S/A'd by his dad.

One of the biggest examples and the most memorable one was when Violet and Patty gave Charlie an used valentines card for valentines day, almost screaning profanity and calling the girls thoughtless because Charlie DOES have a heart and he IS a nice person.

This is because Charlie was Schroeder's best friend, but that's something that was overshadowed greatly by Linus being Charlie's best friend and Lucy being keen on taking all of Schroeder's time.

Contrary to popular belief, in the comics Charlie is actually very educated on classical music, at least theory and biographically wise. He was the one that introduced Schroeder to Beethoven and if memory serves he gifted Schroeder his iconic Beethoven bust. He even read all of it for him when Schroeder was too young to know how to read,and he was Schroeder's number one fan; going his way to give him some ideas and to ask important questions.

Charlie is one of the only people Schroeder willingly talks to and is able to open up about what he feels (even if Charlie talks over him a lot), he trusts him to lean on his piano and partakes in actual meaningful conversations, in contrast to Lucy, where she keeps talking alone and Schroeder gives noncommital responses unless she ticks him off.
