Mathematical’s recap of “Fionna and Cake” calls Fionna “well-endowed” = perfectly fine
Mathematical’s recap of “Wizard Battle” says that Finn is going to make out with Princess Bubblegum = perfectly fine
Mathematical’s recap of “Too Young” plays suggestive smooth jazz during the “whopping love hug”; asks if Finn and Bubblegum should go out = perfectly fine
Mathematical’s recap of “What Was Missing” hints that Marceline may have a crush on Princess Bubblegum; asks if Marceline and Bubblegum should go out = UNACCEEEEPTABLLLLE
I’m Just Your Problem - the demo track
Featuring Ian Jones-Quartey as Princess Bubblegum
It might seem like this episode is about friendship, but I wanted it to be about honesty! Marceline almost gets the door open because she drops her guard and tells the truth for a second while she sings this song.
Bob Fosse said “the time to sing is when your emotional level is too high to just speak anymore,” I really wanted to try for that feeling.
Chords-
Em, Bm, C, G (x4)

Also— this is just too cute with the ukelele. ;~;
