“I think, if I’m made to reflect his light, with him looking at me like this, we could burn the world to ashes.”

Lore

It’s certainly been a while, and I feel compelled to let you know some of the backstory/context behind why I’m here:

So, I was born in a country where being any form of gay is illegal; we’re talking indefinite imprisonment, torture, etc. This is is the main reason why I was drawn to historical Laurens and Hamilton—they could relate. (Add to that them having to think about the logistics of revolution and government, which I also did for separate reasons lol.) They were honestly good motivation and made me push myself more than I thought I could. My old education system was terrible and clearly meant to NOT make people equipped to live in a democratic or tolerant society. I looked beyond it, and a lot of what I learned was just to understand what the hell those gayasses were referencing, and hey, it worked.

Over the past year, I worked on getting out. Applying to schools, making a portfolio, and not working myself to death.

I’m now writing from my U.S. college campus. I’m officially out of there. I have a tiny pride flag on my desk that I can’t legally get killed for. Whenever the lack of family/connections gets to me, I look at it and remember that it was absolutely worth it. It’s great to be here. It’s being able to breathe.

Now that I’m settled, I’ll be making stuff for here as I have the time, most likely during breaks. I would literally not have human rights if it weren’t for this, so it’ll continue to be important to me.

So yeah! special thanks to tumblr users @john-laurens and @ciceroprofacto for really getting me into the interesting stuff (read SOA, linked above). Thanks to everyone reading this—I do read most asks even if I haven’t been great at responding so far. And lastly, thank you to James Flint from Black Sails (and the concept of gay rage.)

Washington's freezing aides in Valley Forge ~

Two in the front are (obviously) Laurens and Hamilton

In the background - the two leaning in the front are Tilghman and Dr McHenry, then sitting next to each other are Lt Col. Meade and Lt Col. Fitzgerald (with his face in his hands), and the one leaning in the back is Lt Col. Harrison

«Сохрани, сохрани мою речь навсегда

За привкус несчастья и дыма

За смолу кругового терпения

За совестный дёготь труда... »

And I have two translations between which I cannot choose. So I'll leave both)

"Keep, keep my speech forever

For the savour of misery and smoke

For the sap of circular patience

To the dutiful tinder of toil ... "

"Preserve my words forever for their aftertaste of misfortune and smoke, for their tar of collective patience and conscientious work ..."

For context that i just made up, Alex gets infiltrate in the Continental camp at night, and Jonh catches him and ties him up before anyone else could see him

Only to release him safe and sound the next day.

Bonus: This is a PSA: stop the stubble. He would not be caught dead.

[scaredycatsstuff]

Honestly, this is the healthiest way he deals with it I think. Funniest part of this video, the person used a Hamilton song sound.
