*hits blunt* The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is a metaphor of how Victorian aristocracy considered their natural needs and feelings as sinful and inhumane, shunning them away and how we can’t really escape from them and bottling them up could only cause harm.
This. When I was in school it was taught like it was a story about a good personality and an evil one, and it drove me up the wall.
Mr Hyde doesn’t exist. There is no Edward Hyde; it is not a second personality that was released or created by the potion. All that Jekyll did was changing his appearance - wearing a hide - and naming it accordingly. At which point he was free to do whatever he wished, because he no longer had to behave as the respected Dr. Jekyll was expected to. No one would know it was him. He had a lot bottled up and, with a mask on, he let it all out. And damn didn’t that go wrong.
So the genius of the novel is that it leaves you with a question: which one was, in the end, the real Jekyll? The man he was when he felt he had to adhere to the rules of society, or the monster he became when he felt he was safe in doing as he wished without consequences for his reputation and respectable life?
Which one was the real mask?
The musical varies quite a bit from the book, but the song “Confrontation” actually brings this up directly. Literally the entire point of the song is Jekyll denying that the anger, the murderous urges, the lust, all the unacceptable shit was, could be, from him, and it literally crescendos with Hyde screaming “I am you, you are Hyde”.
There’s also the opening song and continuing leitmotif of “Facade,” which discusses the half that has the mask on–”there’s a face that we wear in the cold light of day/it’s society’s mask, it’s society’s way/and the truth is that it’s all a facade.” The 1995 version of the musical includes five reprises, each getting more and more vicious and pointed.
If you’re struggling with the book’s themes, I recommend picking up the 1995 and 1997 recordings of the musical (Jekyll & Hyde) and listening to them. “Lisa” in 1995 is “Emma” in 1997 and the timelines are ever so slightly different, but the lyrics are great for picking out the themes.

duuuuuude Mirrormask was rad as hell! It’s been ages since I watched it, but it was great

I've barely been following your blog for a week and you've posted so much Jekyll and Hyde that I thought I'd check out The Glass Scientists and damn you I've been sucked into it XD
I stumbled into it because I made a J&H shitpost and people actually reblogged it and I was like “why is this happen, there CAN’T be this much of a fandom for a novella from 1886” and I found a bunch of blogs with shiny pictures of Dr. Sparkle and Mr. Floof and went “oh this looks neat” and then I FELL IN AND DROWNED

mindfulwrath reblogged russian-funeral rainy-days-and-cabbage Follow 100 things the Lodgers are no longer allowed to do1. ‘For the good of science!’ is not an appropriate response to ‘Why is everything on fire?’2. Unrelated to the above, Mr Sinnett and Mr Luckett are not allowed to combine their work in any way without written permission from Dr Jekyll.3. Related to the above two, Mr Luckett is not allowed in the Chemistry Lab. Ever.4. Mr Hyde is no longer allowed to make comment on or imply anything about any of the Lodgers’ sex lives.5. Including his own.6. Especially his own.7. Do not taunt the repair kraken, we don’t want another incident.8. Do not make comment on any Lodgers’ height. Especially the blonde ones. We aren’t pointing fingers. Honest.9. On that note; don’t make comment on any lodgers’ weight, social background, ethnicity, gender or weight. They are passionate, slightly mad and have easy access to dangerous lab equipment. You have been warned.10. Do not mess with Dr Jekyll’s morning cup of tea. Just don’t.11. Dr Griffin is not allowed to turn any more mice, rats or similar rodents invisible.12. Nor is he allowed to breed the already invisible mice, rats or similar rodents to create more. Seriously we have enough problems with them as is.13. Progress Reports SHOULD NOT NEED to start with ‘I can explain…’14. Dr Jekyll is to stop leaving his coat, hat and other clothing garments littered all over the society. Or said items will be sold for the good of the society!15. If it makes Mr Hyde giggle for longer than 15 seconds, it’s not allowed.16. Rachel is not to wander around the society covered in blood, wielding a kitchen knife and/or making ominous sounds when guests are present.17. Nobody is to do the above, on that note.18. Alcohol is not to be consumed in any of the labs or whilst working. Drunk science may seem fun but it is a bad idea!19. I don’t care if Mr Hyde said it was allowed, it isn’t.20. Lodgers are not allowed to have a contest to see who can make the biggest “boom”.21. Because Mr Luckett will win and the repairs will come out of your monthly research grant.22. The Secret Rogue Scientist Fight Club is hereby disbanded and banned.23. Mr Doodles’ confectionaries are not to be taken without his permission. Ever. Please, you’ll make him cry!24. Please do not laugh manically around members of the public or the police.25. Please do not mention potentially illegal activities around members of the public or the police.26. Nobody is to suggest, imply or outright state anything pertaining to Scotland being less than great within ear shot of Mr Hyde and Dr Jekyll. 27. Lodgers are reminded not to fall asleep in the middle of conducting experiments.28. Wine is not a substitute for breakfast.29. Nor is tequila, vodka, whiskey or anything other than actual breakfast.30. The following words and phrases are never to be uttered within the same topic of conversation in any combination: “Necrophilia,” “I hate everyone on this society and I wish they’d die,” “Dr Maijabi’s mystic powers,” “Experimental lubricant,” “airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow,” “the many uses of cheese,” “it’ll be fine so long as we don’t tell them,” and any mentions of Mr Mosley being part mole.31. Adding more ingredients does not always fix the problem.32. Tea parties on Dr Maijabi’s floating furniture are banned until further notice.33. Please respect that no one in the society shares the same sleeping pattern and keep the noise down at all times.34. That means you, Edward.35. Unless Rachel has given you permission, the Lodgers are not allowed to cook their own meals. We don’t need another exploded oven, thank you. 36. Do not make potions in the kitchen. You have your labs.37. Do not use Mr Sinnett’s pyrotechnics to cook.38. Not even if it’s to make s’mores, we still haven’t cleaned up the mess from last time!39. I don’t care what your excuse is, nobody is to steal or ‘borrow’ anyone else’s equipment or experiments without their owner’s permission. 40. “Hyde made me do it” is not a valid excuse for anything, especially when he didn’t.41. Likewise, lying that ‘Mr Hyde did it’ when questioned by Dr Jekyll will not end well for you. He will somehow know that you are lying and Mr Hyde won’t be happy when he finds out.42. If Dr Jekyll asks to see you, please don’t start the conversation with ‘You can’t prove anything!’43. ‘It wasn’t me!’ is not a valid alternative to the above.44. Nor is ‘I’ll clean it up! I promise!’45. Please avoid intentionally or unintentionally scaring Dr Lanyon. Please, he’s fragile and easily startled.46. Dr Jekyll is not to be provoked when he’s doing paperwork.47. All the many betting pools found in the society are unofficial. Enter them at your own risk.48. This should go without saying but please do not lick any of the lab equipment.49. Dr Griffin is banned from the kitchen following an incident where a large portion of food was turned invisible.50. Please do not repeat the above for pranking reasons.51. Should anyone or anything claim to be from the future, avoid it at all costs and quickly inform Dr Jekyll. He can take it from there.52. Glitter is banned within the society. End of argument.53. No, neither Dr Jekyll nor Mr Hyde are in violation of the above. They just seem to sparkle naturally. We don’t know how either.54. Do not insult Dr Jekyll. He may not react, or more worryingly start agreeing with you, but the rest of Lodgers will find out and will not be happy.55. Do not dance on the furniture.56. Yes, Hyde does it but he’s screwing the boss.57. Do not mention Hyde possibly screwing the boss.58. Do not refer to Dr Jekyll as ‘the boss’.59. Please remove the above three statements immediately! – Dr Jekyll60. It is impossible to keep anything a secret for more than a week in the society. You have been warned. 61. Gossip in the Society travels at a rate that is just slightly slower than the speed of sound. Again, you have been warned.62. If you don’t know what it is or what it does, DO NOT touch it!63. If it’s leaking fluid and it shouldn’t, either fix it or back away slowly and hope it doesn’t explode.64. Zosi did not eat anyone’s lab equipment, monthly reports or left sock. Stop blaming it on them!65. Do not attempt to pick Mr Bird’s plants to make flower crowns. Half of them are poisonous, the other half will eat you.66. Do not take Bryson’s hot air balloon on a joy ride.67. Likewise with Dr Helsby’s Bathyscaph.68. Do not steal Dr Jekyll’s sparkly carriage for the same purpose either.69. Also do not steal Mr Mosley’s Hollow Earth Submarine. That man owns a drill and will use it on you.70. Please do not mess about with Mr Doodle’s candyfloss machine. Flooding the upstairs with candyfloss might seem fun at the time but it’s a pain to clean up. And it took us three hours to get Mr Hyde down off the ceiling last time.71. Clothing must be worn at all time in communal areas of the society. Invisible clothing does not count.72. Dr Griffin is not allowed to flip any more table unless all the work on them is his own and he pays for the table if he breaks it.73. Dr Jekyll is not to be referred as anyone’s ‘mother’.74. The Lodgers must not present any of ‘the wonders of science’ to children without a RESPONSIBLE adult’s oversight.75. Mr Hyde does not count as a responsible adult.76. Nor do most of the lodgers either on that note.77. Don’t ask why Mr Hyde is sometimes seen wearing Dr Jekyll’s clothes.78. Or vice versa. It just happens.79. Dr Griffin is not to go to West Sussex ever. Especially the area near the village of Iping and the town of Bramblehurst.80. The lodgers are to note that ‘It is better to beg forgiveness than ask permission’ no longer applies to them. Dr Jekyll is more than willing to give permission, but do get permission first!81. Please do not release the repair kraken on the streets. The general public and the Police do not appreciate its presence there.82. Any bake sales hosted within the society grounds are to give at least two thirds of the profits to the society funds.83. No lodger is to take the laws of physics as a personal insult to their work.84. Nor are they to take the laws of reality as a personal insult either.85. No unnecessary science in the lobby!86. If you see one of Miss. Flower’s butterflies, carefully catch it and return it to her as soon as possible.87. DO NOT EAT IT!!88. Do not eat any of the science!89. Expect Mr Doodle’s, with his permission. As mentioned above.90. No fire flies near the chemistry labs please.91. No, Mr Penniebrygg is not building an automaton army. Or at least he shouldn’t be!92. No lodger is to go within twenty feet of Mr Tweedy or his equipment when he is working. If you ignore this and are electrocuted, it’s your own damn fault. 93. Do not send threatening or angry letters to the Theatre across the road.94. If you must, do not sign them with your’s or the Society’s name!95. Making ‘time of the month’ jokes around the female Lodgers or Mr Kaylock is not appropriate.96. Do not try to feed Mr Kaylock dog biscuits.97. Do not try to feed Mr Hyde cat food!98. Do not feed the leviathan. We still aren’t sure what it is or if it eats or what it eats. So please don’t.99. Midnight dance parties are banned unless Mr Hyde is invited. All chaos cause by said midnight dance parties must be cleaned up by the morning.100. Do not let any member of the public see this list.#tgs#long post#this is fucking amazing1,147 notes

Originally, I wasn’t going to put the songs in any order until i figured that some song just went better with certain part, so i tried my best to sort them out (i think i tried to do one song for each scene, but don’t hold me to it). And to prevent any confusions, I actually didn’t pick any of these songs because of their titles, I listen to each song at least 3 times before deciding to use it.And FYI I don’t just sit down and spend my time looking up soundtracks and scores to organize into a list of scenes for chapters for just ANY webcomic; this one is far better than some may realize and I am grateful that I found it, its such a work of art. Also this was just my interpretation of the music, I’m sure there are probably better song but it is what it is.#OOOOOOOO#this is great!!#tgs#music213 notes
