Anonymous asked:

what do u think edwin's music taste would be if he was born more modernish (either like same time as charles or like current times)

there is but one answer

(but also i'm not the most knowledgeable about music, but probably some combination of classical and something sad and lonely...NOT the smiths, but like, the sad vibes)

Hey, music teacher here! I will forever maintain that Edwin perfectly fits the classical-turned-jazz musician archetype, especially given how rebellious it would have been for him to be a jazz musician back in the 1910's (it was my first headcanon for Edwin, and will forever be my favorite). So, music taste wise, I always associate ragtime piano with canon Edwin (Scott Joplin and James Scott, specifically) because of the time period he was born into. For a more modern Edwin, I think he'd really like I Get Along Without You Very Well covered by Chet Baker. I also saw Linda Ronstadt suggested in other reblogs as well, and I fully agree there.

As for classical... I always thought of Edwin as a Chopin boy (the Etudes come to mind), with probably some Debussy thrown into the mix. As for modern classical(ish) music, I like to think he'd be into TWO LANES, and maybe even Ludovico Einaudi (because of course)

Anyway! Just my two cents.

So, everyone's seen the theory that the dolls in the Doll House are Edwin's old bodies, right? But if you want to break your heart a little more, take a look at the doll placement.

They line the corridors, but there are noticeably more of them in two particular spots.

First up: by the exit door.

This one makes a lot of sense. In disasters, people in a panic find it hard to get through doorways, especially inward-pulling doors, in a rush. It's a dangerous chokepoint for people who are panicking, which Edwin definitely would have been, being chased.

Add that to the fact that there isn't an actual door here. This is a hole in the wall; who's to say if it was even open when Edwin first found it? He might have had to break his way through, initially, which takes time, and time means getting caught.

But that leads us to the second spot, which isn't so obvious.

It's this spot by the window.

There's no cover here. There's nowhere to hide, to make it appealing for a boy seeking safety. There's no door or anything else to slow Edwin down. So why did he die here so often?

If the window was breakable, Edwin would have figured that out early on, so it wasn't that. But he kept coming back here anyway, over and over.

There's only one thing that makes this spot unique.

It has more light than anywhere else in the Doll House.

I propose that he died here, again and again, over seventy long years, doing exactly what he's doing when Charles finds him: seeking what comfort he can in whatever little light is available to him in the depths of hell.

And then Charles comes to get him, and he brings a lantern.
