I made an Iceberg meme out of George Washington. I used a generator by the way.

That Turn scene that changed my life

[hamiltonconfessions-but-better]

people who act like whamilton and washette shippers are the scum of the earth— GROW UP. they're not related, no one is a minor— you can't act like it's inherently bad or even something that could be considered a proship. no one is saying you have to ship it. just because you don't like something doesn't mean it's wrong. and besides ALL OF THIS. let's please remember that this is all fictional and for fun.

"Oh but they're younger than him, they're innocent—" THEY WERE FIGHTING IN A WAR AND KILLED PEOPLE, CHILDREN. THEY'LL BE FINE.

yr obedient servant,

a fed up whamilton shipper

Half joking but also what was in the air of George Washington's headquarters early September of 1779? And did anyone else notice and have to suffer?

It's a mix of confident shared affection and slightedness and soothed over by a simple letter energy but still close enough on the same wavelength that I'm like yikes I feel for everyone else. Honestly the timing of these two paragraphs are like perfect and makes me wonder if they were talking late at night about negligent "friends." ("Friends" as in lovers.)

(Washington is mortified a few months later to get a letter from Lafayette, whining that he has not gotten a single letter. Every single letter he sends while Lafayette has returned home is misdelievered. Bad luck. Lafayette however is confident in their affections. Honestly their confident adoring energy is everything compared to the longing slightly falling apart energy of Lams. Both are perfection. )

I pitched headlong back into my Lafayette feels tonight

[jacepens]

I'm thinking about posting a few drafts/WIPs here on tumblr because I just have so so many that I want to give some life to, but they all would the things 'I'm definitely never working on again unless by a miracle'

Soo would you be interested in reading unfinished WIPs of mine knowing that I'll never write more, or would you rather just not know what you might miss?

And yes, this would include everything from all my fandoms. It's pretty much just all of the really old stuff that I still think is good, but I know in my heart I almost certainly will not write more of. (It would be a lot of washette, sorry to my new followers, congrats to my old. Like A LOT that's why I said this is the wrong choice. I'm half serious about that because "literally everything" would just be...so much. But if that's what you want, go for it)

EDIT: and by post I mean post on tumblr!! The only reason one or two might go on ao3 is because they're fully finished just maybe not super polished.

Each ship and how it happened (Part 1):

Washette

Washington didn’t like him at first, but than grew to love Lafayette once he got to know him.

Lams

Love at first sight

Jamilton

This is the classic enemies to lovers stick. They hated each each to the point of love.

Hamburr

Lovers to enemies.

Wamilton

What started out as work place professionalism turned into a loving relationship.

[hamiltonconfessions-but-better]

so I ship Washette and every time I post something about that ship 2-3+ people unfollow me. every. single. time. now I'm kind of afraid to post about them.

I've been seeing a lot of washette stuff on this blog and I just want to say I LOVE WASHETTE!!!

The friendship of Achilles for his dear Patroclus, as celebrated by Homer, has survived the fate of empires and the charges of time, as if destined to serve as a perpetual monument sacred to friendship. May not another Homer arise to consign yours for Fayette to equal immortality, and tears of pleasure flow at its recital like an exhaustless stream through the long period of future ages.

McHenry to Washington on April 3, 1794 on Lafayette's imprisonment. A few lines before he had told Washington to be sensible, assumingly with what little they could do. (So take that Cabinet Battle #2 Washington cared for Lafayette to the point of being told he had to be sensible. But helping in France wouldn't have freed him)

I very much need to sit with this quote for a few days but also. If I'm getting this right McHenry is saying that if Lafayette died in his prison, Washington's grief would be akin to Achilles' to Patroclus and stories would be written about it, immortalizing their friendship for ages to come, as he says "May not another" so they don't want this friendship to be immortalized similarly to Achilles+Pat because it means it ended sadly. (I may be off about my initial interpretation)

It's... Very sad. Like I can't imagine how heartbreaking it it to write this and pray for your friend's sake your other friend lives cause it's shaping up for a grief that will shape generations. (It's giving Alexander and Hephaestion and Alexander clinging to Phai's dead body for days until the companions had to drag him away)

I think of Hamilton and Laurens as that generation's A+P because Laurens died so early and Hamilton retreated into himself and buried himself in work to ignore his grief but we very much could've gotten a world where they executed Lafayette and he and Washington's friendship was immortalized with Homerian grief. Heck, Adrienne was a day away from being executed the following year and she did nothing wrong but be married to Lafayette.

I just... comparing people to Achilles and Patroclus is really telling. Even ignoring the romance part(idk what the 18th century take on those two and romance was. I could see, if one of them had heard of it, the gay trio supporting it.)
