i’m a fully realized creation! fuck!

#the allegory to Black boyhood Lou brought to this character is simply unmatched by any other adaptation of pinocchio. it's That Good.

[ID: Three gifs of Lou Wilson in Dimension 20: Neverafter. He says, "I think Pinocchio wants to know why his life has been so hard. Why it needed to be this hard. Why everything has always been as hard as it is. Why nothing has ever worked out. "Why do other children get to lie and steal and still live good lives? And why does anytime I choose to do those things, I get hung, or my feet get burned, or my father gets eaten? "It's like every time I fail or have a misstep, I suffer the ultimate consequences, and that doesn't happen to other kids, and I want to know why. What was the goal? Why did I have to suffer?" /end ID]

[ID: a digital drawing of the Bad Kids from Fantasy High made to look like a polaroid photograph with the words "See you next year!" written at the bottom. They're all grouped together on bleachers with most of them sitting on benches except Fig who sits on the ground and Kristen who lies on her back and has her feet propped up. End ID]

it's kinda wild that it took the mcelroy brothers 13 years and 678 episodes to drop their "our great great uncle was the chief purser on the titanic" lore. if i were them i would never stop talking about that.
