God, Astarion just breaks my heart. Immediately after getting to the lower city, I got opening dialogue about how he forgot how much color there was in the city after two hundred years only seeing the streets in the shadows. He seemed so awestruck, taken aback by all the beauty in the world that he had been missing.
Then, Gale pipes up about Mystra having a temple in the city, and when Gale questions Astarion about having never felt the call of the divine, Astarion mentions that he tried every single god, but none of them answered.
He tried them all. Every god. Yet no one answered his prayers.
I started tearing up right there, my character just standing amongst the city streets, thinking of all the miserable nights Astarion spent just wishing for anything, absolutely anything, other than the terrible hand he'd been dealt.

I don’t care how you feel about him, but Biden’s “we are America, second to none, and we own the finish line” is one of the greatest lines in history.

👀 I would like to hear the thoughts
To preface a lot of neurodivergent conditions weren't believed to exist back in the 1890s or were only recently being discovered, so all these kiddos are undiagnosed (and they likely wouldn't have much access to doctors who could test them anyways). Not that the newsies would really care much, they know how to help their buddies when needed.
I've taken inspiration from some of my own experiences wdym I'm projecting kjdsksj
- Crutchie is on the autistic spectrum. He likes sticking to a routine, his sensory issues dictate he keep his arms covered up even in summer, he sells on the same spot morning and evening and worries if one of his regulars doesn't stop by. It's a bit of a struggle for him during the seasonal changes where he has to adjust to sleeping back inside or up on the roof again (Jack insists he doesn't have to stay up there with him, but Crutchie says he likes it once he's gotten used to it again)
- Finch and Albert have hyperactive ADHD. Albert is very impulsive and can never stick to a selling spot (neither can Finch, but that's for different reasons). Finch's reading lessons with Davey usually involve rereading paragraphs multiple times until they stick. He prefers when Davey reads to him, the words stick in his head better that way
- Buttons, on the other hand, has inattentive ADHD. His sewing is about the one thing he can completely focus on (and it often turns into hyperfixating, one of the other boys usually has to remind him to go to bed)
- Elmer is dyspraxic. He doesn't mean to keep dropping things or tripping on the stairs. He's stopped trying to button his vest and he still needs JoJo's help tying his shoes. The other boys quickly catch on this isn't something they can poke fun at like his selling abilities, because there's nothing funny about seeing the poor kid nearly in tears because he's on his third attempt at buttoning his shirt. It's another reason JoJo likes to keep close to him, he wants to be there to help Elmer if need be
- Sniper has dyscalculia, not helpful when most of your life revolves around budgeting. He recognises coins based on size and colour rather than what number is on them, and if he needs to pay for something he tends to just hand over every penny he's got and get change back accordingly
- Ike is autistic. Mike is not. Ike has a fixation on stripes and needs to be wearing at least one stripy item of clothing. When they first got to the lodging house Mike went round to everyone who had stripy clothes asking if they would swap with Ike to keep him happy. Mike doesn't really understand why his twin is the way he is, why he's driven to tears if he can't wear stripes or if he and Mike are separated for longer than about half an hour, but he's quick to come to Ike's defence if anyone has a go at him for it
- Over in Brooklyn, York is dyslexic. He's embarrassed he has so much trouble getting the words to make sense. Spot's devised a very tactful strategy to make sure York gets to understand the headlines he's hawking, without having unwanted attention drawn to him

T and U for Bonnie and Clyde for the musical ask game?
T) An underrated song?
I haven't interacted with a lot of fans of this musical, but I get the vibe That's What You Call A Dream is a little overlooked. It's the parallel song to "Bonnie" in a way, showing a tender moment between the show's secondary couple, but with a bittersweet tone as Blanche longs for a simple life with her husband. And when you consider how utterly bleak a large portion of the real Blanche's life was, particularly with the Barrow Gang... I really hope she enjoyed the last years of her life, she deserved some peace.
U) An overrated song?
Honestly I don't think there is one the whole soundtrack is an absolute banger

Second to None (Sakurai Clan Ver.)
Bring the Beat!
[Aranai:]
I'm the storm of Ueno, the roar on the street
Sakurai's own, I will never accept defeat
Bōsōzoku past, engines and might
Now I spit rhymes that fuckin' soar and ignite
Mic in my grip, I'm ruling the game
My verses hit hard, they are never the same
From two wheels to two bars, I command every beat
In the rap battleground, I'm the one to defeat
Family and city, they ride on my flow
Sakurai pride, I'm the star of the whole damn show
Ueno's defender, with each word I spit
I'm the queen of the clan, and I ain't never gon quit
I've raced with danger, now I'm racing to fame
Every verse is a win, every line's an acclaim
The queen of the city? I'm the only one
You can check on the rep--yep, second to none
[Chorus:]
Check on the rep, second to none, yea
This how we get this done
You can check on the rep, second to none
Check on the rep, second to none, yea
This how we get this done
You can check on the rep, second to none
[Shisuta:]
In the silence of the cloister, I find my voice
Faith's my compass, in God's love, I rejoice
Life's a test, a trial of the soul's endurance
With scripture as my shield, I stand in assurance
"Be strong in the Lord," so Ephesians declares
His might is my fortress against worldly snares
"Faith comes from hearing," so I speak the Word
A symphony of hope, in my heart, it's heard
Through trials and tempests, my spirit's never worn
For "I can do all things," in Christ, I'm reborn
The mustard seed's lesson, a faith so profound
Moves mountains within me, where His grace is found
I rap for the lost, for the weak, I'm the one
With verses of salvation, a new life begun
In the rhythm of prayer, my strength is spun
You can check on the rep--yep, second to none
[Chorus:]
Check on the rep, second to none, yea
This how we get this done
You can check on the rep, second to none
Check on the rep, second to none, yea
This how we get this done
You can check on the rep, second to none
[Kisouna:]
In the court of law, my words strike like thunder
Sworn to justice, I'll tear crime asunder
No crook too sly, no case too tough
I stand for what's right, and I've had enough
For my daughter, for Ueno, my vow is cast
A safe world's the future, not shadowed by the past
From the streets to the bench, my resolve is shown
I'm the law's sharp edge, cold as a stone
Criminals quake when they hear my name
For I play no games in the pursuit of fame
Justice's sword, I wield it with pride,
For a just Japan, I won't be denied
My city's guardian, my daughter's sun
It's for her sake, I won't quit, I'll continue to run
I'm the beacon of hope when the day is done
You can check on the rep--yep, second to none
[Chorus:]
Check on the rep, second to none, yea
This how we get this done
You can check on the rep, second to none
Check on the rep, second to none, yea
This how we get this done
You can check on the rep, second to none

Second to None (Jet Set Trio Ver.)
Bring the Beat!
[Tomi:]
I'm the talk of Aoyama, where the elite reside
Champagne life, in luxury, I glide
My wealth's not quiet, it screams in splendor
In a world of silver, I'm the golden contender
Tailored suits, high-class affairs
My status alone, it's a cut above theirs
I don't walk or run, no, I stride with grace
Every step I take, I own the place
Diamonds and cars, they're just my playthings
I soar in skies that wealth unfurls its wings
My name's an echo in the halls of fame
A legacy built, not just a family name
I'm the peak of the mount, the talk of the town
In a sea of the posh, I wear the crown
You probably don't know, but I always get it done
You can check on the rep--yep, second to none
[Chorus:]
Check on the rep, second to none, yea
This how we get this done
You can check on the rep, second to none
Check on the rep, second to none, yea
This how we get this done
You can check on the rep, second to none
[Karada:]
Like the goddess, Nike, victory's my fate
In the gym's pantheon, I'm the one they celebrate
Ares in the ring, my strength's divine
Hercules reborn, Japan's fitness line
Iron I lift, so heavy, so bold
My muscles sculpted, like stories of old
I'm the titan of trainers, the colossus of might
In the arena of power, I'm the undefeated knight
My biceps roar like the Nemean lion
On Mount Olympus, I'm the iron scion
With every rep, I forge my throne
In the realm of strength, my name is known
I'm the alpha of the pack, the zenith, the sun
You think to contest me? Well, let's have some fun
But by the time you get started, I'll be already done
You can check on the rep--yep, second to none
[Chorus:]
Check on the rep, second to none, yea
This how we get this done
You can check on the rep, second to none
Check on the rep, second to none, yea
This how we get this done
You can check on the rep, second to none
[Luis:]
In the kitchen's heat, I'm the maestro, the guide
Flames dance to my will, with El Dorado's pride
Calm as a breeze, but don't test my fire
Cross me, and I'll burn you up like a funeral pyre
Sazón in my soul, I cook with amor
For abuela and amigos, it's them I adore
My dishes, a canvas, my spices are hot
Keep perfecting and cooking until its just the right spot
Chiles and flames, my temper's a flare
But with each plate, I handle with care
In the sizzle and char, my legend's begun
Each new recipe is a story that will soon be spun
For honor, for family, my skills I hone
This kitchen is where I never forfeit my throne
I'll keep holding on until the day is done
You can check on the rep--yep, second to none
[Chorus:]
Check on the rep, second to none, yea
This how we get this done
You can check on the rep, second to none
Check on the rep, second to none, yea
This how we get this done
You can check on the rep, second to none

What are your thoughts on the Brooklyn newsies?
Okay okay SO I love the Brooklyn girls but I wish the boys had come back too bc I love them as well, so instead of seeing them interact onstage it all happens in my head kskjdksd
Most of this is pure headcanon of course
Spot is both Brooklyn's leader and the de facto boss of the Poplar Street Lodging House (aside from the superintendent, of course), with Hotshot as second-in-command of Brooklyn. Mack's third-in-command of Brooklyn, whilst Lucky is boss of the girl's lodging house.
York had previously been Brooklyn's third. However, he took a long time to recover (physically, mentally and emotionally) after losing his eye, so Mack initially stepped in until he was better. She proved very capable though and York vouched for her to keep the position.
Bart and Scope aren't quite sure if they're dating or not. Bart initially just offered to help Scope with her baby, and whilst they grew very close as a result neither is sure if they're romantically interested. They're perfectly content staying friends and co-parents though, and they find the other newsies' theories about their relationship amusing.
Bart is also Pips' big brother. She initially stayed at Poplar Street with him whilst she was little, but once she turned ten she moved in with the other girls. They get on well, and Bart taught her a lot of fighting techniques to make sure she could hold her own.
York and Stray have a weirdly intense rivalry. They can't even remember what started it, but neither's willing to back down.
Myron and Splint were both originally from Queens, and came over to Brooklyn together. Splint's mother had taken Myron in after he was abandoned, and so he joined them when they moved. They go to their mother's grave every Sunday together.
Pips and Ritz are the only ones who haven't been to the Refuge. The older newsies always made sure it stayed that way.
The girls get taught more life skills at their Home than the boys do, so they teach the boys in the evenings before they have to go back to their own lodge. Spot's proven to be very good at sewing.
