Heeeeeeeeeeeeeya Ricky,
Im throwing your ask back at ya. what starkid character would you play if you could pick one? And hey since I added TCB I'd love to hear ur thoughts on those characters too ',:3
Hiiiiiiya Jesse!
Good lord you’ve turned the tables.
As a devout techie whose acting experience doesn’t go beyond reading for people in rehearsal and memorizing monologues for freshman year drama class- I really had to stew on this. Like REALLY stew.
I also took a page out of your book and went through each musical character by character, but I won’t bore you with that whole hectic process. Plus also- I’m not going to include TCB because, as you so aptly said when you answered this, Agent Curt Mega would SWEEP. Not even a competition like- dream role right there.
Uhm but yeah, as far as Starkid roles go- the conclusion I’ve come to is that I would want to play President Howard Goodman from Black Friday.
Ok hear me out right- it’s a small enough role so that it wouldn’t be too overwhelming, I love a good jab at the incompetence of American officeholders, and he’s just a silly pathetic little guy who would be fun to play. I’d have a blast yelling about an eldritch stuffed doll and running around in a goofy little space suit while getting sung at about the inherent capitalist nature of Americans. And bonus if we’re talking roles as well, I wouldn’t be opposed to being shopper #4.
In case you’re curious, other runner-ups were Richie, Ethan Green, and Duke (but I could never live up to Curt’s portrayal of Duke are you kidding?).
