Sometimes things like the house cleaning make for a good distraction and you'll feel better after it's done! We seriously need to do the same. I have a potential op coming up in the new year for a large/complex hiatus hernia. Nothing compared to what you're both facing but the wait is stressful. x

Hope Nina is feeling better now! I had it just at the tail end of our last play, in October. Very faint line on the test though, but still felt crap for days! 😒

You can be impressed by and embarrassed for, as long as you're not embarrassed by! 😂

I'm not on here that often, as most people seem to have stayed on/drifted back to Twitter but I did catch this and I'm so sorry to hear you're both going through such a hard time. Sending all my best healing vibes to your husband and lots of love to you. Do message me if you want to chat. 🫂

Conflicted anti-heros have been my thing ever since I was old enough to recognise one. That plus your stellar acting, of course!😉 Interesting phrasing here re Lu and Al..."while Alastor seems to genuinely enjoy poking the all-powerful fallen angel." (Or is that only a Brit slang interpretation?) 🫣😅

That works for me, unless I'm feeling particularly contradictory and want to wind someone up who clearly has no real interest in my answer. I sometimes throw in a "not that great, actually" just to see what they'll do with it! 🤣

Thanks for sharing! That song is such an earworm. As mentioned before, it took something big to stop "Gravity" from playing on a loop in my head. Love the reprise with Vox, too. Very important points about masks/ discrimination. Yes, Alastor is a killer but look what evil his "victim" represents...

Glad that @amirtalai.bsky.social got to see/re-post this. It popped up on my FB feed & I laughed my socks off at the comments. Basically: "parents didn't parent & are now outraged."🤭There is a certain good notoriety in pissing off the "Daily Fail", as it's know as, by many Brits. Congrats Hazbin!👏🤣

That sounds interesting. Thanks for the recommendation. 🤗

Actually, please don't follow me. I want to be able to talk about you behind your back. 😘😂

Well, I needed something to drive out the persistent little earworm that was "Gravity" & this did it nicely! 😁 I guess my whole life was destined to be accompanied by the soundtrack of musical theatre.🤷♀️Talking of which, have you seen Peter Barber's reaction videos to Hazbin? Very entertaining imhop.

You're so right. When I first joined Twitter I was amazed by the fact that actors were prepared to share and interact. I come from an era of autograph books and distant fan clubs. 😅 Sadly, I've seen too many driven away by disrespectful and entitled people. It does ruin it for the rest. 😔

I wonder if anyone has ever cosplayed Susan and if anyone would recognise that it was her, if they did? 🤔

Well, that was a reveal & a half! Not sure at first but kind of love that Rosie has power over Al (for now, at least 😉). It adds a whole new layer to their interactions & you played it so well! Enjoying every aspect of Alastor/Vox & where that may lead. Probably not where Val hopes it will! 😂

Yup, that would be fun, please and thank you! 😂

Love this! I have been using this quote on my husband since S2 came out...he's not a fan, so have to preface it with "as Alastor from Hazbin would say..." 😂
