Approaching ride the cyclone and legoland as separate universes I just kinda see them as different ways the monkey’s paw curls when it comes to Penny’s desire to be loved/known/belong somewhere
In Legoland everything happens because Penny keeps trying to reach out to people and be loved by others. Her and Ezra go to Walmart to feel connected to the community only for their actual home in Elysium to fall apart because of it. Now they’re stuck in school that hates everything about her with no where else to go. She gets into seven up in order to fit in, only for everyone to turn on her again. She does the whole Johnny moon trip in order to connect with the songwriter whose works spoke to her, only for him to reject her in the exact same way the rest of town has. By the end of the play her story is all over the news and her name even has a movie attached to it. She mentioned before how she feared dying alone and forgotten, but now her name will be known forever. Yet it doesn’t actually fix the fact that she’s just as alone as she was before, if both moreso. She got her wish to be remembered, but the universe said it could only happen by making her isolated and othered. She won’t be forgotten now, but she isn’t loved for who she is either.
Then Ride the Cyclone acts as a timeline where the opposite happens and the universe says she dies alone. When Penny asks to find a place to belong, the universe responds by letting her be forgotten. Her greatest fear is realized, and she’s left wondering how her wish to simply be something was not worth fulfilling. What’s left is Jane Doe, and while she may not remember her past, she at the very least shares the same motivation, and of the few things she can piece together, she understands that her existence didn’t mean anything to the people around her. She didn’t matter at all in the end. She was not worth being remembered. It’s ironic that the only friends she does find are ones she could only meet once her life was over. It’s even more ironic that the only time a group of friends likes her was when she lost all her identity. She could only be loved when she wasn’t herself. She is only cherished in death by people who cannot follow her into her next life. And maybe she does get a happy ending depending on how the resurrection happens. The analysis here works whether or not it’s reincarnation or resurrection, or whether she’s penny before or after the events of the story, but even in the best case scenario where she has a happy life it could only happen in death by divine intervention after she’s already lost everything. Who she was before the accident was not worth saving. Who she was before the accident was not worth remembering. She is loved, but only because part of her was forgotten.
TLDR; the universe will never let Penny Lamb have nice things. Either she’s remembered but isolated for who she is or is loved but forgotten for who she is. The two plays are basically the opposite sides of the bad luck coin in how they mess up her life in two different ways. I have no idea how the next part of the trilogy is gonna come out but I’d bet real money that Penny shows up again just for her normal ass desire to have friends turns bad in a new and uniquely terrible way.

How about a RTC au where they all survived and went to college? What would their life be like? What majors? Avoid rollercoasters?
Would you like that?

Hello anon, thank you for your request! I suggest you check out my post about rules for requesting that I will link here. As I have stated in said post, I do not write readers with a specific ethnic background.
You mentioned you don’t request often so I find this mistake understandable but I really urge you to read authors their info posts before sending anything in! This isn’t the first time this has happened on my account though(I’ve just updated my intro post because it’s a a reoccurring issue), so don’t take this personally as it’s not just a you thing!
That being said, if you have any other requests that do fall under my guidelines, please feel free to send them in (or DM me privately if you’re not sure) and I will be more than happy to write them!

Tw: eating disorder treatment and brief mention of vomiting
Did anyone who went to eating disorder residential also get irrationally angry when watching heartstopper or am I just a bitch? Im specifically talking about the episode where charlie goes to rez, I cried from a mix of being triggered but also sort of jealous of this fictional character. His experience seemed so healing, and there’s a scene where he’s struggling to eat his meal and so he just doesn’t, and all I can think about is how much I wish that was the case for me. Instead I was forced to eat until I was begging to stop and throwing up (this was not one of my eating disorder behaviors, I simply could not eat anymore and they didn’t listen). I’m glad there’s representation for eating disorders on tv, and this is less a criticism of the show and more me venting because I feel cruel for having these feelings around it. Again this is a fictional character and not that deep but just what i’ve been dwelling on tonight. Much love if you’ve been to rez, I hope you’re doing ok

Some might say, “We’re released”, “Pushing daisies”, “deceased!”
But we all know the worms must be fed!
There’s just one lingering fear.
Oh my soul, is it here?
Or is it rotting somewhere with my head?
Oh my soul, Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah
Oh my soul Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah
Oh my soul! Ah, ah, ah-ah-ah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Oh no soul, and no name, and no story, what a shame
Cruel existence is only a sham!
Oh, Saint Peter, let me in
You must know where I’ve been
Won’t you tell me at last who I am?
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am!
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ah-ah
Ahh-ah-ah
And from the ground, beneath my feet.
I hear the anguish of the street.
(A choir never complete!)
And like an old forgotten tune.
A song that no one knows.
Forgot how it goes!
Just John and me.
Forever eternally, Jane Doe!
AND I’M ASKING “WHY LORD! IF THIS IS HOW I DIE, LORD!
WHY BE LEFT WITH NO FAMILY AND NO FRIENDS!”
I’VE GOT NO CELEBRATION, JUST THIS CONSOLATION!
Time eats all his children in the end!
And from the ground, beneath my feet.
I hear the anguish of the street.
(A choir never complete!)
And like an old forgotten tune.
A song that no one knows!
Forgot how it goes!
Just John and me.
Forever eternally, Jane Doe.
AND SHE’S ASKING “WHY LORD!” Why, oh why, oh why, oh why?
“THIS IS NO WAY TO DIE, LORD!"No one to sing, no one to sigh!
Now that all is said and done.
Isn’t there anyone to tell me who I am?
No singing songs of celebration!
Just this sorry speculation!
Like John, I’ll be eternally
A forgotten name, some lost refrain
Just "Jane”
JAAAAAAAAANE
DOE.

Marie and Noel had the potential to be friends.
They were both told to hide their personality in order to be accepted as normal and they were both aspiring novelists (who never wrote a novel)
But they just hardly cross paths in any meaningful way. 😞

Guess who found a copy of the Legoland script and read it :DD
Minor spoiler below cut
[[MORE]]How do we have spacedolls crumbs without Ricky even being mentioned??? Maybe I’m just crazy but they used the same quote I wonder if he taught her that and she remembered and she’s honoring himmmmm agghhhhhhh
Also while I was reading how Penny and Ezra grew up all I could think was how her and Ovean would’ve bonded over their parents being the furthest of leftists and not really wanting to do that.
I like, NEED to see someone do a least a few of Ezra’s lines because he’s so funny on paper and I think the right actors would really bring him to life
I was wondering why Penny was always drawn with two braids lol
