So Please Pay Attention, Attention!

So please pay attention, attention!

List of pulp melodies I adore:

Planet Earth, 1835 (absolutely gorgeous, appears in various songs throughout TGMH, and makes a reappearance in May this monument stand forever)

It is 1835! Oh what a time to be alive! (an absolute bop! I scream this all the time)

Samuel walks the avenue (this is absolutely gorgeous. It’s in TGMH a couple times, but haven’t found it anywhere else)

Rose infodumping (A man named Samuel Morse has left a code for us to crack,…) (This might also be a Rose theme, but it shows up again when she meets John for the first time and asks about science, when she and Samuel are on the satellite talking about what to write in the journal, and it underscores Rose’s explanation of Mahogony as well)

They approached the window slowly, as if they were about to enter someplace holy (Um, absolutely beautiful. If this was anywhere else, someone please tell me. I adore it)

Basically, all of Brick Satellite. All three of them. Especially “suddenly catapulting out of this world”

Like a dream, in an endless sleep, then in a crash you were awakened (part of When are we, also appears in “like a prey in a desperate chase, Samuel ran to meet Margaret”)

Hanover, British Guiana, yesterday population six (This is part of When are We, and it appears all over TGOA, including “Captain AJ Griffen walked in the rain as the skeleton crew rowed away” and “Captain Griffen was possessed by Kal, as it turns out, not a ghost”) As the crew sang shanties in the mess hall, John Herschel walked the deck alone. (reappeared at the beginning of shifts reprise)

"The author knew their history, a scientific sleuth. Maybe in another life, we would have got along..."

In another life. Sure, John.

you're on your way to Lincoln island, meanwhile I'm still here.

It HAD to be divine intervention right???? Traveller Species intervention?? Those pieces had to fall into place??? The Paper had to reach the cape of good hope in time?? Because John had to be in New York in September??? so that he could take them to British Guiana??? So that they could be launched via the satellite so Sia could meet them in space??? So that they could end up on the Ellen Austin??? Right??? These characters have so much momentum behind them and they don't even know???

THIS AUGUST?!!!!! I'm so excited! Also this may just be a coincidence, but the idea of Matt Dahan having the best Pulp Fortnight submission is so funny to me. All of our crack-theories will soon be so obsolete.

Pulp 4 is currently in production, and will drop from the clouds this August 🏝️
