Ricky Potts - Tumblr Posts
I haven't posted something here since May or something lol
A rtc community au I feel would slap idk tho
I had this thought before I started getting into RTC and I watched a production of it last night and the idea resurfaced so here are my thoughts about it,
When I first watched it I thought in this hypothetical au Annie would be a good Ocean, as they both heavily care about their academic record (didn't Annie like drug the study group for their anthropology finale(???) and Ocean talks abt her academics alot and uses it as "proof" for why she should be chosen) also this doesn't matter but in the most well-know rtc production ( the one with Emily rohm I believe as Jane Doe and Tiffany Trateau as Ocean I believe (?)
(this one)
Ocean and Annie do sound kinda similar (it's not relevant but thought it should be included)
My next thought was to have Abed in a Ricky type role as Ricky's title before his song, his "The most imaginative boy in town",
And Abed shown to be imaginative ((maybe not in the best way as evidence by geothermal escapism and Virtual System Analysis (the dreamatorium ep) but also with his movies as while yes they are typically documentaries he does get creative with them ( Jesus Abed ))
So I guess it wouldn't be too out of the question for him to have his song be about sexy cat women from Zolar ( as shown in 'For a few more paitballs')
The next is kinda less clear but bear with me,
So out of all the study group Annie/Ocean & Abed/Ricky is the most obvious I think the next character would be Pierce as Karnak (( idk what rtc fandom thinks of Karnak but either way I like him and feel bad for him)feelings on Pierce are less clear)
Considering the fact in the musical, Karank states Virgil as his executor as they both die at the end,
Considering this and how eventually Ricky leaves the competition, I feel rather than have abed leave it would make sense for it to be Troy, considering in the show because of Pierce he leaves (he would still be there just leave the competition like rtc)
I think Jeff as a Mischa as he tries to portray the 'tough cool guy' persona however it's just a persona, kinda like how Mischa is seen as angry -and he is don't get me wrong- but he's not just angry, kinda like how Jeff isn't just some 'cool suave guy who is never uncool' so I think there could be some great parallels to that.
I also think rather than 'Whoever gets chosen is brought back from the dead' could be replaced with something more meta,
Such as: 'whoever gets the most votes gets their character saved' something along those lines as while it's Jane Doe who gets brought back, no one from the study group is similar to her so to rework it, whoever gets chosen actually gets the chance to not be assassinated (character-wise)
So this could be either Shirley or Britta, both women in the show who have either had their character ruined or just never written well in the first place.
How this would work out I'm not sure, but this is just a rough idea if I do continue this idea.
Troy, Noel and Constance are a bit more confusing,
If we were to have Troy as Noel rather than the french prostitute thing, following "The most romantic boy in town" it could be him fantasizing about some dream ideal life (I'm not a big trobed shipper, however I think it might ever so slightly incorporated as Troy , trying to follow Jeff, so he acts all "manly" this could tie into either internalised homophobia or just repressing his actual personality to fit in w the 'cool' crowd)
So I think overall he works better as Constance as at the end of the musical, she says "there's nothing wrong with being the nicest girl in town"
I think that could work well for Troy as when we first see him, it's the 'cool jock' persona he has but he eventually grows comfortable being his nerdy self,
For Noel ultimately I think Shirley is gonna have his role ( would've preferred her as Jane but oh well)
As Noel imagines as life he will never have (Monique Gibeau, in post-war France) this could work well for Shirley as she imagines a life where maybe she didn't marry André, and doesn't need to worry about just being a mom and wife (while Shirley does love her kids I'm not sure if it's said she wanted to be a mother might just not bring up her kids as it's a kinda complex subject matter)
This would leave Britta as Jane Doe which could work really well I think, as if we're following my meta concept, and how in the musical Jane doesn't really know how to act in a way ( constantly freaks everyone out by behaviour she views as" normal ") change this to Britta having a sort of identity crisis ( work in being revived from character assassination and actually be well written) is something I could see working out in a great way.

RTC PFPS ‼️‼️
A funny fact abt me is that I'm terrified of drawing headshots, just bc if I make something wrong there's nothing else to distract the attention.
Ggrrggr Idk if its just me that the more I see them the more I find mistakes
btw if u feel like using them just a "pfp made by mercy" is well appreciated!! (≧∇≦)/
Ricky Potts is so oingo boingo coded
A list of Noel Gruber headcanons because it’s his birthday! (Me and my friend made them up at lunch 🫶 @noelgruberfr )
1. Noel definitely said to Ocean, “You’re not invited to my birthday party!”
2. Noel got drunk on his birthday because of Mischa.
3. Mischa accidentally called Noel a ‘twink’ when trying to say, “You’re so light Noel” (Mischa picked him up)
4. Noel snores so loud and nobody can sleep when he’s around.
5. Noel does not grow hair (a beard), he’s never seen a razor in his life.
6. Noel cannot handle spice, it’s so bad he can’t even eat pepper.
7. His favourite chips are salt and vinegar, because he likes to pretend the sting tastes like alcohol from France.
8. Noel makes Mischa dress up as an old French man, and Mischa lets it happen because half the time he’s out of it.
9. Constance bought (Stole) beads for Noel’s birthday gift and made him bracelets and necklaces.
10. They played Mario Kart for his birthday and it ended with them cussing eachother out and Ocean was the maddest, even though her remote wasn’t even on. (Ricky and Jane Doe won)
11. They glitter bombed Noel when he woke up (Ricky’s idea)
12. (Noel has asthma) they glamorized his inhaler and gave it back to him, he then proceeded to choke on a rhinestone.
13. Mischa got him a red rose as a gift not knowing it was romantic.
14. Ricky got him stress toys (Noel then proceeded to throw one at Ocean)
15. They did dollar store crafts because Ocean is a broke botch and couldn’t afford anything else, and Mischa made a dick and stuck it in Noel’s hair.
16. Mischa wanted to help Constance make Noel’s cake, but he messed it up (added salt instead of sugar) so they had to make another one, and they accidentally ate the bad one, and Ricky ate the whole thing.
17. Mischa hates taking off his hat for ‘oh Canada’ but he took it off to sing Noel happy birthday.
18. Penny bought him a nail polish set for his birthday

Noel Gruber

He is blonde in my mind, colored the buttons on his shirt black with sharpie has a beauty mark , piercings and a tattoo hair is pretty long so man ponytail
Constance Blackthorn

And i was having a good day 😃
guys how fucked up would it have been if in ride the cyclone each character sang their song and then before the play goes back into motion they repeat their last words. Just after their song completely out of nowhere a panicked little “I wanna get off” or “hold on hold on hold on we’re gonna be fine”
idk if i like this :3 (pls compliment me /j)

Mischa - rage (obvi)
Ricky - either doom or mind
