I just wanted to draw some Juno/Beetlejuice angst! Forgive me!
I'm sorry this comic doesn't really go anywhere. May I reccomend @escape-your-grape if you need some soft Beetlejuice comfort art in these trying times.
Beetlejuice (from the musical) coming back to the house and everyone setting ground rules and making up and being a nice family is great and all but so neat and tidy.
What if Lydia wanted to bring him back but her father wouldn’t agree unless they could completely guarantee he wouldn’t be a danger? What if the only way everyone was okay with bringing him back is if they could bind him to their will?
…and what if Beetlejuice, still lonely and missing the brief period of time where someone actually cared about him, agreed to it?
Sure, he’d be losing his freedom, but… getting to stick around could be worth it.
I think the Avatar fandom is the only other place where I’ve seen redemption-through-imprisonment but boy do I love the concept.
It opens up so much opportunity for the “good guys” to do some morally questionable stuff, by accident or intentionally.
