I love your depiction of Hamilton and Lafayette, it’s so funny! Lafayette is so sweet and happy and Hamilton just has beef w/ the entire world. I can’t wait to see more of their brotherly relations in ur AMAZING art style
God, they're so narrative foil coded
Seriously though, there's some fantastic contrast between them. They're just similar enough (both roughly the same age, both insecure and glory hungry, + their "shared father" or whatever Lafayette said) - and yet they manage to be exact opposites at the same time.
I could say more but I think this bit from Mike Duncan's biography about Lafayette basically gets at what I'm trying to say:
"Like Lafayette, Hamilton grew up without a father. He also lost his mother to a fatal illness at almost the same age Lafayette lost his. But where the tragedies of Lafayette’s childhood made him the heir of a fabulous fortune, the tragedies of Hamilton’s illegitimate childhood left him systematically cut out of his family’s inheritance. So where the dark clouds of Lafayette’s life were lined with silver, the dark clouds of Hamilton’s life were simply dark. Lafayette emerged from childhood buoyant and effusive, Hamilton cynical and reticent. But even though Hamilton started life a penniless bastard on the periphery of European civilization, and Lafayette started life an insanely wealthy heir in the heart of a great kingdom, they fell into an easy friendship. French was not the only language the two young men shared. The also shared a code of personal honor and a desire to prove themselves to the world." -Mike Duncan, Hero of Two Worlds, The Marquis de Lafayette in the Age of Revolution
Now, I am not qualified to speak on the real figures, but I do like to write. So, there is a narrative opportunity here that drives me insane.
Like, cast Hamilton as brilliant, but overly cynical with a habit of assuming the worst in people, and give him a negative character arc where he comes close to recognizing the potential good of humanity but ultimately falls into his more authoritarian tendencies. Then contrast him with Lafayette who's more naive. He's not quite sheltered but unfamiliar with the sort of selfishness and greed he'd have encountered if he grew up in a more vulnerable financial position. In coming to America he, like Hamilton, is forced to reckon with contempt, greed, and the failings of democratic government. But, unlike Hamilton, still manages to come out of it with a generally positive opinion of humanity.
I'm just saying, if I were writing history to contain ✨themes ✨ they are a perfect opportunity.
#this is the most I've ever ranted outside of my tags#it feels weird to have thoughts publicly lol#even if this is still generally nonspecific#is Lafayette's optimism just a symptom of his comparative naivete or do Hamiltons existing prejudices blind him to positivity#ok im done for now#amrev#alexander hamilton#marquis de lafayette#also I am glad people like my art style#because I#well Im pretty sure yall are talking about the way I color but I have spent ages trying to figure out how the hell human faces work#and I still dont get it#I spend most of my day on construction drawings which is a completely non-transferable skill#anyway literally the only thing to be done about it is to keep practicing so

As a Hamilton and EPIC fan, I think it's funny their reaction to seeing their loved ones again, like they care about people but there's the one person that seems to matter a bit more
Alex in TWWWE: I see my boyfriend leading a chorus of dead men. I see my son and my mom. But most importantly, WASHINGTON IS WATCHING FROM THE OTHER SIDE.
Odysseus in every fucking song: My son is waiting for me, my kingdom is waiting, all of Ithaca is waiting, PENELOPE IS WAITING. oh yeah and my mom too btw. BUT PENELOPE
#am i wrong#Maybe about Alex#but idc#It's funny#epic the musical#hamilton#odysseus#alexander hamilton

in "the world was wide enough" burr says "there are ten things u need to know" but from HIS initial pov he only talks about nine things he tenth thing is fro hamilton's pov which is his own death; him aiming towards the sky and his reasoning for doing so and then after alexander is already dead THEN we get to know burr's tenth thing which is regret utter and absolute regret for having taken alexander for granted for having killed him for being the villain on alex's and all of our stories for being obsessed and blind and absolutely fucking oblivious to the world but at the same time.....it is his relief isnt it???? for hamilton being dead. for once and for all. so at the end of the day there's only ONE thing we needed to know: both burr and hamilton were human. flawed. trying their best. until the very end. there were no heroes or villains in that bc death doesnt discriminate betweens the sinners and the saints it takes and it takes and it takes

Eliza and Alexander were the type of couple to say "we're trying so hard for a baby" and make everyone uncomfortable

saw a comment on tik tok saying that burr always walks in a straight line while hamilton walks around in circles during the choreo and in "room where it happens" burr suddenly starts walking in circles because hes unsure of what he wants and hes confused now because everything he thought he was waiting for is now different than his desperation to be in that room and UGHHH lin his MIND. the contrast, the dichotomy....burr and hamilton live in my head rent free

Hi guys i have the disgrace to say i have created a monster, meet the monster:
Hamilton AU but they we're all reborn as female singers (except Eliza, she's Kanye West)
Burr = Mitski
Hamilton = Britney Spears
King George = Azaelia Banks
Laurens = Laufey
Angelica = Shakira
Lafayette = Lady Gaga
Thomas Jefferson = Taylor Swift
Peggy: Adele
Washington: Beyonce
Eliza: Kanye West
That's it, if you guys want to add or change characters feel free to, and if y'all want to kill me also feel free to

Doctor James McHenry for the burnout moodboard
This is another reminder to go read @nerenight's fantastic fic which has very nearly single handedly carried my interest in these boys
#seriously its phenomenal and I wish I had the time to give it more than a few sketches#james mchenry#john fitzgerald#alexander hamilton#john laurens#amrev#art tag#I am now realizing I forgot the ribbands#well#My art can be inconsistent with people but mac is very round and friend shaped#and i love that for him
