i watched the dallas theater company les mis and here are my observations part TWO

i recently watched a modern adaptation of les mis from 2014! i took hella notes bc les mis being set in modern day has a LOT MORE than you would think! i just posted my act one notes, so here are the ones from act two. enjoy! :D

ACT TWO

(Building The Barricade)

oh javert,,,you and your red beret-scarf combo

everyone shakes hands the same way?? they all like. half bro hug. young people ig 🤷‍♀️

oh on my own is gonna hurt me huh

éponine has her hands up when she goes to take the letter to cosette that’s an interesting take

jvj looks so done lmao “really bruh just give me the letter i’ll give it to cosette it’s FINE”

omg first time i’ve ever seen éponine not take the money after the letter!! that actually makes so much sense bc she doesn’t take marius’ money when he asks her to find cosette’s house either. that,,,yes that’s good

the modern era begs the question... why didn’t marius just ask for cosette’s number?? i’d assume it’s just a thing that jvj doesn’t allow her to have a phone bc The Cops, but. maybe marius and cosette are the straight version of cottagecore lesbians they just write letters for ~The Aesthetic~

(On My Own)

i was right on my own was gonna hurt me

first time i’ve ever seen an éponine disguise where she actually passes as a boy lmao

FINALLY A VERSION OF OMO WHERE ITS NOT JUST FORLORN SELF-CARESSING THANK YOU

surprisingly i have less notes here that’s fun i thought i’d have more

(Javert at the Barricades)

WOAHHHHH THEY DID NOT SKIMP ON BARRICADE SET PIECES THAT SHIT IS COOOOOL

oh the barricade scenes are already hitting too hard

cops are in riot gear cops. are in. riot gear.

oh the javert spy thing that also hits funny because obviously

gavroche is armed with a bat i love you son

FULL VERSION OF LITTLE PEOPLE AT THE BARRICADE AYEEEEE

(A Little Fall Of Rain)

wait hold on why is marius not,,,singing to éponine on “why have you come back here?” he’s like. scolding someone,,, huh??

oh enj goes to help marius with ép!! and he calls over who i assume would be joly i STAN

MARIUS CRIES AFTER ÉP DIES KILL MEEEE

(The First Attack)

i like how jvj does the second confrontation here. he looks less angry and more like,,,compassionate and that MAKES SENSE bc yk. he’s telling javert he’s wrong but he’s not doing it out of spite he’s doing it bc this guy NEEDS to know what he does as a cop and realize that being a cop isn’t just enforcing rules, and it never was just that.

i do love the exasperated “gO” from jvj that’s kinda great ngl

(Drink With Me)

i’m very sad that there won’t be any exr from these boys

v e r y sad here

i do see grantaire looking PRETTY sad though

bold of y’all to assume that the modern day amis would all be straight

okay i can tell that grantaire really is going hard on the Existential Singing like,,,sure he’s just standing there but like. damn bro

SO THERE A R E LADIES ON THE BARRICADE WHY TF ARENT THEY FIGHTING

BETTER SEE SOME CHANGE THERE

i just realized that the cockades are buttons that is the BEST

(Bring Him Home)

jvj actually looks kinda happy in BHH and tbh i kinda like it?? it’s only on the “he’s like the son i might have known” line but i like it

oh those vowels oh boy they TALL

(The Final Battle)

enjolras is for some reason, still angry...why...why bro....

the staging for gavroche’s death is INTERESTING bc he’s reaching up at the sniper on the tower. hm. i dont hate it

OH SOMEONE ON THE BARRICADE IS RECORDING I THINK!!! GOOD ADDITION!!

i can’t imagine how many blood packs they went through

oh enjolras’s death okay so. he’s in a like. No Man’s Land almost, and the riot cops come in after him. it’s an interesting take because it almost mirrors the scene in the book, except obvs grantaire isn’t here. they also have an added scene after he dies where cops are checking out and using radios that is. that is EERIE.

jvj walks over to enjolras’s body 🥺

HE ALSO FUCKIN S C R E A M S WHEN HE SEES MARIUS ON THE GROUND GODDAMN MAN O U C H

thenardier steals combeferre’s glasses wow thanks for that added pain

thenardier and jvj have a mini fight oh that’s kinda cool hm

(Javert’s Soliliquy)

javert opens his soliloquy with some SPICY SADNESS OH B O Y he sounds broken already!! start strong!!

emotions go broken - anger - confusion? - mAJOR confusion - hopelessness

javert can FLY! no legit he’s on ropes

(Turning)

turning is. turning is almost a funeral.

OH THEYRE N U N S !

nuns are visiting the barricade 🥺

OH DAMN “what’s the use of praying if there’s nobody who hears?” THAT CERTAINLY HAS WEIGHT NOW THAT THEY ARE N U N S

it has just occurred to me that people have been dead on the floor for like. a solid five minutes

(Empty Chairs At Empty Tables)

“now my friends. are dead. and gone” he pauses like he’s realizing it just then oh OUCHIE

wait is marius,,,at the barricades? is he legit singing to his friends dead bodies? oh shit oh NO

OH N O OH NONONO THIS IS WORSE

THE BARRICADE BOYS RISE UP FROM THE FLOOR OH N O OUCH OUCH

they group up and salute him and wALK OFF NO OWWWW

*cosette and marius kiss* jvj: *COUGH COUGH*

marius and valjean’s lil conversation is interesting in the way valjean seems to ask marius “who am i?” rather than ask himself. he phrases it in a way that makes me think he’s like. quizzing marius lmao

(The Wedding)

omg i think baby cosette and éponine are flower girls 🥺🥺

“go away thenardier” *madame mouths ‘dammit!’*

thenardier your boat shoes hurt me

madame: “get up! get up!” thenardier: “stop—STOP IT!”

TWO GUYS ARE DANCING TOGETHER AND WAVE AT THENARDIER ON “this ones a queer, but what can you do”

yeah i think i found my new favorite thenardiers thank you dallas theater company

fantine sits on the bench when cosette comes by, cosette sits on bench next to her, and fantine tries to touch her but can’t 🥺

jvj just gave a hand-over-heart head nod to cosette but fantine gave it back i,,,ouch

ENJOLRAS AND GAVROCHE ARE WITH FANTINE AND ÉPONINE FOR JVJ’S DEATH

the chain gang is in the epilogue i repeat the cHAIN GANG IS IN THE EPILOGUE

the orchestra rests on the last “say do you hear the distant drums” and that was the coolest thing i’ve ever heard

that final harmony is MONEYYYY and i want to cry

OVERALL NOTES:

this javert has the most interesting interpretation because up until his FINAL SCENE he is the stone cold police officer, and he plays it SO WELL. like i have never been truly angry at a javert up until this guy, and whether that was because it was modern and resonates A LOT in 2020 or he just looks like a cop i want to punch, I DON’T KNOW but he plays it SO WELL and i love it so much!!

these thenardiers are the fucking BEST NGL they are the perfect mix of funny and cruel. madame t is also funny as HELL and i wish i had her talent lmao

i said it before but the police costumes in this show are. woosh. kudos to the costumer i took one look at those guys and was like “haha, no!.” vaguely related to that, i think this was the first time i nearly cried at Look Down like. the first song at the show, simply because of the convict getting the SHIT beat out of him on the floor. that hurt me and i hate that it is completely accurate to what happens in prisons today.

lovely ladies was,,,a LOT and tbh, i feel like it didn’t need to be. obviously it does show how horrible it is for sex workers, but that is why the music is there. the music and lyrics is there to tell what you don’t show visually. (though i do love the male prostitute lmao he took no shit)

i also said this before but the fact that there wasn’t bigger of a relationship between enjolras and grantaire kind of annoys me simply because they are revolutionaries in the present day. you can’t tell me that ALL OF THEM WERE STRAIGHT. with how many people i know now that identify under the queer and trans umbrella, and also how queer they are (to me) in the brick, the absence of any exr in a modern interpretation hurts a little.

in conclusion, this show was fucking FANTASTIC and even though i’m six years late, it still resonates hard given the time we live in today. i think i nearly screamed when i saw the cops in riot gear on the barricade because that is LITERALLY HAPPENING RIGHT NOW. this just reminds me how timeless the story of les mis is because you had to change LITERALLY NOTHING from the story to make it make sense in the modern age, and that is really the lesson you should learn from les mis; these things happen everywhere, and they need to be fixed.

thank you for listening to my rambling, i am sure i forgot something because there was just so damn much but i hope you enjoyed otherwise! not-a christmas-tree out! :)

Hi and thank you for requesting with us anon! I hope you like this!

>Admin 𝕋

⭑･ﾟﾟ･*:༅｡.｡༅:*ﾟ:*:✼✿　　✿✼:*ﾟ:༅｡.｡༅:*･ﾟﾟ･⭑

A - Aftercare: How do they take care of their s/o after sex?

Iwaizumi would so gentle and loving aftersex. Almost to the point of a doting boyfriend; he will clean you up all by himself, with a towel. He will not let you do anything, just have you sit there and bask in the afterglow of the good times you guys just had!

B - Body: What is their favorite body part?

I feel like Iwaizumi’s favorite body part would be neck and thighs. I see him as such a thigh person, like oh my god, he loves being in between you things and giving all the pleasure you need! And he loves your neck because he can kiss all he wants! He will always ask you to show it off to him so he can leave small kisses on you, make you felt tingly.

C - Cum: Anything to do with it

Iwaizumi, most of the time likes cumming on your face. And when you are the one cumming, he likes drinking it, likes tasting you for all that you are! Pretty kinky if you ask me!

D - Daring: How willing are they to take risks? Are they experimental or do they prefer to stick within their comfort zone?

Iwaizumi would take so many risks, as long as he will get away with it, and nobody will see them. He is experimental in that aspect. If you ask him to try something with you he will almost always say yes, because to him, why the fuck not?

E - Experience: Is this their first time? Or do they have more experience under their belt?

I feel like Iwaizumi has some experience in his belt, but not so much, that he would be a god in bed. He may have a couple people he had sec with, but that’s because he felt a connection with them. He doesn’t have sex with people he doesn’t genuinely like.

F - Fair: How fair are they with their s/o? How much of a tease are they?

TEASE TEASE TEASE, SUCH A TEASE. Not fair when it comes to it at all. He loves when his s/o squirms and wriths underneath him! This man would literally be the end of you, if you were under him.

G - Green light: How do they come up with a safeword to use if they or their s/o are uncomfortable and want to stop?

He would probably talk about it in the middle of a fairly innocent conversation. Like, you guys are talking about soup or some shit and he just says “hey that should be our safeword.” and you look at him dubiously because you did not expect that? Like at all?

H - Hands: How touchy are they? Where do they usually like to touch their s/o?

When he is in the mood, he will be very fucking touchy, everywhere and anywhere. like it could get kind of annoying, but sort of turning you on? But he likes touching you in the most sensitive places, like your inner thighs, or your ears or maybe your lips, like he will just play with your lips with his fingers and it is such a turn on for him bro.

I - Intimacy: Do they tend to be a romantic when in the bedroom? How much of a sap can they be?

HE IS SO SUPER ROMANTIC. Like they are so super sappy and loves to show you how much he loves in so many ways and positions, he will show you how much a he loves you with his body and yours, connecting you to the wonders of heaven~~

J - Jest: Are they prone to being a little silly, or are they more serious?

I can’t see him being really all that sappy, most of the time serious. But when something especially funny happens he will take his time to laugh it out of his system. But once he is done laughing, mainly at you, he will get right back to the main event!

K - Kinks: Any kinks that never fail to get them off?

I feel like the kink that never fails to get him off his hair pulling and biting. When you get aggressive, ooohhhhhh that’s when he gets super hard, super fast, and literally does not know what to do with himself until he cums.

L - Lust: What really gets them going? Any specific turn-ons?

A specific turn on that I can see is when you put up you hair in a ponytail. Like I feel he thinks that will be a sign for a little something something. And with that way your neck is exposed and how that is one of your sensitive spots?? Yeah he gone my man, just gone.

M - Move: What is their pace like? Are they fast or slow, rough or gentle?

Can I say he can be all of the above???? Like there is no set pace for this man, he will literally do what he feels like will feel best ya know? He doesn’t really think about, he just let his instincts take over and go fast or slow, and just go with the flow.

N - No way: Do they have any turn-offs? Anything that they’re not willing to do in the bedroom?

Bondage. In my opinion he really wouldn’t be into to that, he may like a little pain, but using toys like rope or handcuffs is kind of a turn off for him because he sees sex as something romantic and raw, he doesn’t like toys.

O - Oral: Do they usually give or receive? How skilled are they?

He likes giving oral, only because he likes watching you cum multiples times when he can, and watch your face contort in pure bliss.

P - Position: What is their favorite position?

He really do be liking Flatiron, the one where you lay on your stomach and he lays on top of you, fully covering you with his body and just ramming you from behind. ANd let me tell you it would be delightful.

Q - Quirkplay: Have they tried it with their s/o? How did it go?

No I don’t he would be into that type of stuff.

R - Role: Top, bottom, or switch?

TOPTOPTOPTOPTOP such top energy, I can’t really see him as a bottom, but if you to ask him, really ask him that you want top he will seriously consider only to turn you down lololol.

S - Stamina: How long can they last? How many rounds before they’re finally tuckered out?

Iwaizumi has a lot of stamina, probably due to the fact that he plays volleyball, and he can go several rounds with you until you tell him to stop. But sometimes he will be too tired to go multiples rounds, or maybe he will want to, but he will want you to ride. Goooood shittttttt.

T - Toys: Do they have any toys? How often are they used on their s/o or on themselves?

I’ve stated that he wouldn’t be into toys, so no I don’t think he would having any toys in the bedroom, he likes making you cumming with his tongue and his dick, because he loves that connection.

U - Understand: How easily can they understand their s/o without them having to say a word?

I want to say that he would understand everything, every nuance. He wants to know everything about you, so he will try to remember every little twitch or whimper so that you don’t need to tell him vocally.

V - Vocal: How loud are they?

Not too loud throughout intercourse, but when he is near to finishing, he will start to get louder and louder until he comes, and honestly it’s the best thing ever for you.

W - Weird: What is the weirdest thing they’ve done/tried to do before, during, or after sex?

MMMM I don’t think Iwaizumi would do anything weird per se, maybe something embarrassing like trip while taking his clothes off, but nothing weird.

X - X-ray: What’s going on below the belt?

HE IS HUGE AND THICK, BEWARE OF THE BIG COCK, HE WILL DESTROY YOU. BE SAFE.

Y - Yearn: How do they get the attention of their s/o when they’re in the mood?

Iwaizumi will just stare at you until you get the point that he wants to do the nasty. He doesn’t vocalize it, no, he’s like a cat, he wants you to figure it out, and if you don’t, then he will taking by the waist and kiss you on the neck until you get into the mood.

Z - Zzz: How quickly do they fall asleep afterward?

I feel like Iwaizumi would want to be the last person to sleep, so that he can watch you fall asleep! And look at you lovingly and just feel like the luckiest person in the world!

oof Taste - bad clue is one of my favorites too ! jfhdgkdjgh i fcukin Love hao in that outfit, him leaning over the table just /sure/ that mingyu was the culprit - my heart melted for him then and There i cannot dfkgjhdjkgh lol just sharing the story of how i became an 8star :DD also !! how r u ?? --💕

B R U H listen not to be a fucking simp but i’m here for ONE reason and that’s to be a fucking simp and fucking fuck they did so good and they looked SO GODDAMN GOOD. the fucking eye contact in the climactic end scene standoff over the desk, FUCKING VERNON WHERE HE JUST GOES “there’s something i haven’t told you yet” and then THE LIGTHS GO OUT AKSJALKDJFLKA WHAT A FUCKING POWER MOVE and like they did a solid job of staying in character even though i kept forgetting what their characters were lakdjflkajsdf thirteen roles is very hard to memorize in like. a quick intro sequence. except jun’s that one was easy i loved that one so much.

but like bruh the set design. fucking stellar listen the gose staff did a damn good job (either in choosing it or in dressing it i have no idea what they did to make this but fucking mad props to them either way) and it was a really good idea to give seokmin the added motive of trying to swap out the will cause it added some nice spice to the storyline of the episode and putting together all the backstories and making them distinct and having all the suspects and adding all those details must have taken so long and THE MEMBERS REMEMBER ALL THAT TOO and the fucking styling to fit their characters and also look fucking hot (which MISSION SUCCEEDED MOTHERFUCKERS) and b r u h h h h h h h h h

listen i have a lot of feelings about bad clue and almost all of them boil down to “where did jeonghan get the shotgun and why do i want him to slam it like a baseball bat directly into my skull” anyway seokmin trying to commit fraud is incredible and the fact that he STILL tries to make sure they got the will thing done in the end even after getting eliminated was fucking amazing that’s commitment to the role anyway fuckin bummer scoups got murked right away but he was too powerful to be kept in the business yknow ALSO FUCKIN COCKY ASS DINO FUCKIN COCKY ASS SELF ASSURED COOL BEANS DINO AKSLDJFLKASJDFLKJ HEAD EMPTY ONLY DINO, WHAM BAM THANK YOU MA’AM.

ALKSDJFKLASJDKLFJ SCOUPS GIGGLING AS HE FUCKIN YEETED OUT OF THE LIGHTS OFF ROOMS AND THEN GOT ABSOLUTELY MURKED THAT’S SO FUCKING GOOD THAT’S SO GOOD I LOVE THAT SO MUCH

wait holy SHIT they fuckin yeeted josh into the hotseat and he didn’t even BLINK damn dude OH FUCK JEONGHAN HAS THE SHOTGUN PLEASE GOD CRACK ME ACROSS THE SKULL JUST ONE GOOD FUCKIN WHACK DUDE

also i know i haven’t simped for wonwoo yet and that’s because i am trying so hard to have self control but i want you to know that not only does this fucking look live rent free in my brain at all times, sometimes my head randomly conjures up him shouting “guys come here” and i can’t complain at all

also it’s fuckin hilarious that they all read the will, and THEN seokmin swaps it, and then they’re like “oh this sounds legit” EVEN THOUGH THEY JUST FUCKING READ THE WILL, LIKE?????? I KNOW YOU READ IT BRO WTF

“damn who would want to kill the chairman?” and minghao IMMEDIATELY fuckin incriminates himself what a fucking legend this man would be scary in among us like “red’s dead by electrical” “oh yeah i was just coming from there” “you just placed yourself by the body” “WOULD I DO THAT IF I WERE IMPOSTER” also he’s got the order memorized off the top of his head which is fucking incredible because i have to imagine that first episode was like at least 45 minutes or an hour filming it and i literally just watched them all get yeeted in under twenty minutes and i don’t remember the order so more fuckin big brain shit

THEY FIGURED OUT WHAT THE ROPE WAS FOR ALKSJDFKLASJFD ABSOLUTE FUCKING CHAOS IMMEDIATELY AND MINGHAO LOOKS SO FUCKING EXCITED IT’S SO FUNNY SIR CALM DOWN OH MY GOD THEY’RE ALL ENJOYING THIS LIKE VISIBLY IT’S SO FUCKIN FUNNY THEY’RE LIKE WRASSLING MINGYU WITH THESE HUGE FUCKIN SMILES IT’S HILARIOUS

i did not realize just how quiet woozi was in this two parter he’s like really quiet, maybe cause he died earlier? maybe his character didn’t have as much bearing on the overall shitty chairman plotline?? not sure he’s like really quiet aside from sussing jeonghan from the peanut gallery but he looks damn good and i am reminded of boom boom and i am : l o o k i n g

WAIT I JUST REALIZED I DIDN’T ACTUALLY TALK ABOUT MY SIMPING FOR HOSHI AKLSJFKLAJSFDLK LISTEN I WAS FOND SMILING THE WHOLE TIME THIS MAN WAS SO SURE HE HAD IT ALL TOGETHER SO MANY TIMES AND THEN THEY WERE LIKE “yeah so actually” AND HE JUST WENT SURPRISED PIKACHU FACE HE WAS DOING SO GOOD AND HE FIGURED OUT THE ROPE AND I LOVE HIM VERY MUCH GOD I CAN’T BELIEVE I DIDN’T ACTUALLY LIKE WRITE THAT DOWN ALSDKJFKLASJDF

also what the fuck was the deal with the voice recorder josh had i still don’t really understand that lmao it’s kinda bananas like what did it MEAN i wish they showed dead chat talking about that a little longer i’m so curious and also so goddamn conFUSED

here’s another overall note cause i lost my shit over vernon’s absolute power move earlier listen my man is so incredibly blasé about all the shit going on around him like he is literally so calm and i fuckin love that for him like almost every time he’s onscreen he’s just like “wow cool this thing is now happening lit” and i love that so much cause most of them are like popping off and hoshi’s making accusations and they’re sifting through everything in the set and he’s just having a great time and i fucking love that for him anyway i fucking love this fuckin two parter so goddamn much it’s so good

#with posts like these good FUCKIN LUCK trying to figure out who my bias line is <3 #shut up vic #💕 anon #me: i should answer those asks i didn't answer because i was lazy #also me: watches bad clue and then simps for 1.4k

SO YA GIRL SAW HAMILTON IN CHICAGO 8/17/18

Ok, this is gonna be a long one, sorry! Basically every single thought I had during this performance and afterwards at the stagedoor is under the “Read More”. Enjoy!

@icantthink-ofagoodname @timeandspacelord

Cast:

Hamilton- Miguel Cervantes

Burr- Tommar Wilson

Eliza- Jamila Sabares-Klemm

Angelica- Montego Glover

George Washington- Jonathan Kirkland

Lafayette/Jefferson- Colby Lewis

Hercules Mulligan/James Madison- Ebrin R. Stanley

Laurens/Philip- Jose Ramos

Peggy/Maria Reynolds- Aubin Wise

King George- Andrew Call

Full disclosure- I may or may not have burst into tears when we walked in and I saw the stage for the first time

THIS WAS OUR VIEW OF THE STAGE WE WERE SO CLOSE ALJFDAKFV;KJADFG;AKJ

Act I:

- The theater EXPLODED when Miguel walked onstage for the first time it was incredible

-The ABSOLUTE POWER of “You never learned to take your TIIIIME” in the opening number when the entire company is singing I DIED

-During Aaron Burr Sir, Hamilton seemed so excited to meet Burr??? Like he was trying it play it cool but he was totally freaking out it was adorable

-My Shot was just a m a z i n g. I can’t put it into words I’m sorry

- During Schuyler Sisters, Peggy was t o t a l l y the bored little sister being dragged around by her older siblings it was the cutest thing ever

- Angelica absolutely SLAYED Burr, when she said “I want a revelation” she kinda slapped his cravat thingy around with this piece of paper she was holding (presumably some kind of newsletter)

- In farmer refuted ham and Seabury are always trying to step in front of each other/publicly humiliate each other/shove each other off the block which is really fun to watch

- King George was absolutely HILARIOUS, during the “‘Cause when push, comes to shove, I will kill your friends and family” part he literally said it like “I will KILL YOUR. FRIENDS. AND FAMILY.” I love him

- Beginning of right hand man looks like they’re underwater, the whole “British Admiral Howe’s got troops on the water” part was downright h a u n t i n g

- When Washington says “Hamilton come in, have you met Burr?”, Hamilton and Burr reply like ~college bros~, like “Yes, sir, WE KEEP MEETING!” and did this sort of handshake it was really cute

- Angelica’s first part in satisfied was happening center stage at the end of winters ball, it was so cool

-When Angelica leads Hamilton over to Eliza during Helpless, Hamilton is turned around facing Angelica, then eliza comes up behiind him sort of startling him it was really cute

- And when he says “If it takes fighting a war for us to meet it will have been worth it” and kisses her hand, Eliza looks at Angelica like “LOOK!!! LOOK AT THIS CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING I CAN’T BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING” it was adorable

- The lights during the “rewind” part kept zooming into the middle while everyone rewinds to their part

- I have to say, Montego Glover was just a m a z i ng as Angelica, especially during Satisfied

- During the Story Of Tonight Reprise, Laurens, Lafayette, and Hercules are clearly drunk talking to Hamilton, and in the background some guy is just passed out on the stairs

- Tommar was INCREDIBLE during Wait For It, and at the end he sort of smooths out his coat, takes a deep breath, just sort of calming himself and reminding himself that he needs to... wait for it.

- During the beinning of Stay Alive, Eliza is on the (I guess balcony is the best word for it??) above Hamilton as she sings, almost like she’s speaking directly to him which was amazing

- Hamilton literally said “we have resorted to eating our horses” like “WE!! HAVE RESORTED!! TO EATING!!! OUR HORSES!!!” I love Miguel so much

- Also Miguel looks really good in glasses?? Like really good. Just something I noticed...

-Burr’s “okay so we’re doing this” sounded like a resigned parent talking to a bunch of toddlers

- Washington’s “go home” at the end of Meet ME Inside didn’t sound like an order like it did on the soundtrack, it sounded more like a “Son, you need to go home, this is for your own good”

- Jamila’s voice was A N G E L I C during That Would Be Enough I’m-

- Her “look out world” was kind of whispered to Hamilton it was so cute

- GWashs letter to Ham gets passed around the stage via the ensemble during Guns and Ships which looks awesome

- The sheer POWER in Yorktown you just don’t get on the recording it was incredible

- In what comes next george is very pouty and screams as if he’s throwing a tantrum before stomping offstage

- at “feeling so blue” he looks down at stage, stomps foot, spotlight turns blue

- Dear theodosia is so good my gosh Tommar and Miguel were amazing

- During the last bit of DT Eliza is in the background holding a letter for ham waiting for him to finish

- Tomorrow there’ll be more of us made me cry like always, but even more this time because nothing could prepare me for seeing it live onstage

- When Angelica goes to England she and Eliza stand on the circular thing but ham doesn’t so A goes away from him while E goes towards him which is cool

- For Hams “constitutional convention”, Miguel’s voice goes so high he squeaks and is barely audible/his voice gives out which is really funny/cute

- Again with the POWER for nonstop, it’s just insane

Act II:

- JEFFERSON oh my god he’s so dramatic I love it

- At his entrance he kept making the applause louder whenever he noticed it quieting down

- Madison comes in coughing. Every time.

- Cabinet Battles are so funny, Ham mocks whatever tjeff does

- Also there’s a huuuge height difference between Colby and Miguel which makes it even funnier

- Tjeff, Ham, gwash have hand mics and TJeff gently sets his down when he’s done, and Madison goes to pick it up, then drops it and picks it up with his handkerchief because apparently he’s a germaphobe

- When gwash breaks them up ham hides behind him crouching while taunting tjeff it was hilarious

- In take a break ham is working on one side of turnstile while Eliza and Phillip are on other

- Jose’s Philip rap was adorable??? Like he started off sort of shy, but when Ham goes “What??” after his “you can write rhymes but you can’t write mine” he gets really excited and confident it was adorable

-When Angelica and Eliza are trying to convince Ham to go upstate with them, and Angelica sings “If you take your time, you will make your mark” essentially telling him that he’ll make his mark someday, and at the same time Eliza sings “Look around look around at how lucky we are to be alive right now” essentially telling him he doesn’t need to worry about leaving a legacy, and Hamilton looks at Angelica during that part, which I think means that he was listening to her more than Eliza??? Idk, just a theory

- Angelica’s hair is up for the rest of the show now, has a parasol and slightly different dress??

- Say no to this is So cool so amazing Aubin was amazing as Maria

And James Reynolds is up on the balcony area at the beginning watching this affair happen that was an awesome touch

Ham looks really conflicted/reluctant to hand Reynolds the check

- AUBIN WISE IS A LITERAL GODDESS AND I’M GAY* AS HECK thank you that is all

- Reynolds slaps his leg to tell Maria to come to him, she does but stops and stares at ham for a little bit but follows

- ROOM WHERE IT HAPPENS YOU CAN SEE ALL THE WANT AND CONFLICT IN BURRS FACE ITS SO MUCH LIKE THE CLASSIC DISNEY VILLAIN SONG

- Tjeff hands mic to mads to say France, and Madison said it so d e a d p a n it was great

- Washington on your side starts with just burr and jeff and then mads comes in at his “which I wrote” directed to someone off stage

- At the end Jefferson gives his resignation letter to gwash who reads it before going into one last time

- I know him was so funny, gwash passed king George in between the two songs and gwash was like a foot taller and kg just looked at the audience like ‘what’s this guy doing??’

- He was so genuinely confused the whole song and just sat down off to the side to see the rest unfold

- Adams Admin, george is just laughing/cackling the whole time

- At hams address to Adams, he drops a package of paper a few inches thick on the ground because of course he does

- Hurricane was soooo cool, started off underwater, became eye of hurricane and Miguel was just i n c r e d i b l e during the ‘I wrote my way out of hell/I wrote my way to revolution” part. Actually just for the entire song he was incredible. And the entire performance.

- In Reynolds pamphlet, everyone has a pamphlet and is showing it to each other, george comes down and dances off to the side then in hams face

- BURRRN YOOO SO GOOD SO SAD I CRIED JAMILA WAS INCREDIBLE

- Blow us all away, instead of Phillip going up and talking to eacker politely since he is in the middle of a show, he GOES ON STAGE AND CALLS HIM OUT

- AND THE “ACTORS” ONSTAGE JUST STOP TO WATCH THIS WHOLE THING UNFOLD IT WAS HILARIOUS

- The shooting on 7 catches me by surprise every time no matter what

- Stay Alive was just?? Heart breaking?? Eliza’s scream is REAL I forgot all about it and it just WRECKED me

- Same with all of its quiet uptown honestly I was just a mess

- Jefferson looks so shocked when Madison suggests he work with Hamilton, Burr is so confident throughout this whole song but gets upset when Jefferson tells him to thank Ham for the endorsement and just gets angrier

- In your obedient servant, ensemble members are passing the letters back and forth

- at the 30 years of disagreements line, ham just sends like 10 pages of paper over to burr who’s getting more and more exasperated by the second

- Best of wives best of women—ham covers his paper (probably a letter to Eliza/his will) when Eliza comes over so she doesn’t see it

- Best of wives and best of women: Ham and Eliza were so cute??? I’m dying I love them so much

- World was wide enough—the spotlights look like a target but then turn red when he lifts his gun oh my g o o d n e s s

- Miguel’s “I imagine death” monologue was just PERFECT I cried

And at the beginning of WLWDWTYS, when Jefferson talks about “Hamilton’s financial system is a work of genius, I could undo it if I tried... And I tried.”, he makes the “and I tried” part sound like “YEAH AND I TRIED OKAY GOSH” it was kinda funny now that I think about it

- All of wlwdwtys is just so perfect and when she starts talking about the orphanage she started crying which meant I started crying

- She gasps at the very end and the whole stage is dark except for her and I heard it was because she saw us and saw us telling his story and I just. started. bawling.

(*well I’m actually bi but IM SO GAY you get it)

And then we went to the stagedoor, I GOT MY PLAYBILL SIGNED (!!!!!!!!!) BY MIGUEL, MONTEGO, COLBY, EBRIN, ANDREW, KYLE WEILER (George Eaker), A N D MALLORY MICHAELANN WHO WAS THE BULLET AT THIS PERFORMANCE AND I GOT PICTURES WITH MIGUEL, MONTEGO, AND ANDREW OH MY GOSH I WAS COMPLETELY STARSTRUCK

(blurred out my friends’ faces for privacy reasons)

AND MIGUEL SIGNED A. HAM AS WELL AS HIS OWN NAME OH MY GOSH I’M STILL NOT OVER THIS AND I DON’T THINK I EVER WILL BE CAN YOU TELL

#rhena speaks #no one cares Rhena #Hamilton #I'm dead dying deceasing #Y'ALL DONT UNDERSTAND THIS IS THE ONLY THING I'M GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT FOR LITERAL MONTHS SORRYNOTSORRY #my ugly face #selfie

Ouija Board vs 8-Ball

Nikolas and Codie were celebrating at Codie’s childhood home, the place where they grew up together and truly bonded as friends. Nikolas was getting married next week and they wanted to have a quiet bachelor party. As they laughed and went through items that brought back fond memories, they came across a ouija board.

“Oh man, remember how scared of this you used to be?” teased Nikolas.

“Yeah, man. Lots of evil magic in that thing…” Codie replied.

“Well, if you hadn’t figured it out, I controlled it,” Nikolas said with a smirk. “What?! You said the spirits were moving the board!” “Ha ha ha, no way, my friend. You’re supposed to have multiple people for it to work. You were too scared to touch it so I always just did it myself.”

“Well, you know what this means,” Codie said, setting aside his beer and clearing a table. “That we’re going to use it up in the attic?” Nikolas shot back.

“Uh… Yeah…” Codie awkwardly replied, suddenly a little hesitant about his plan.

Codie didn’t like the attic.

Brushing aside enough cobwebs to create several uncomfortable sweaters, the two of them pulled aside some boxes and a tiny plastic table. All of Codie’s childhood stuff was kept up here, but they had no other adults here to judge them so they used what they could for seats and got ready.

“Shall we...contact the dead beyond the mortal veil?” Nikolas said with a flashlight under his chin, trying to sound ominous.

“We’ll see if they can figure out if you were dropped on your head,” joked Codie.

“Was I dropped on my head?” asked Nikolas.

Nikolas gently led the ouija piece over to the yes and the both of them laughed.

“What is your name?” asked Codie.

Nikolas began to push it towards P for Parker Bros, but suddenly the piece pulled away. It led them over to G. Then U. N. N. A. R. Nikolas looked up to Codie and cocked an eyebrow. “Gunnar?” he said with a smirk. “Ha ha, funny,” Codie replied unamused.

“That’s a good bit,” Nikolas responded.

The ouija piece began to move again. M. Y. “My?” asked Codie. B. L. O. O. D.

“What are you doing?” asked Nikolas. L. U. S. T.

Nikolas pulled his hand off of it. Codie kept his hand on it.

N. E. V. E. R.

Codie let it go. The piece pulled as he let it go and it stopped on S.

Nikolas and Codie looked at each other. The table shooked and they both shot up out off of their boxes. Nikolas tripped over his box and toys spilled out onto the floor. Codie went over to help him up, nearly tripping on a magic 8-ball.

“Dude,” Nikolas said. “I swear that wasn’t me,” Codie responded.

“We should stop.”

“Yeah.”

Nikolas got up and grabbed the 8-ball. Smiling with it, he showed it to Codie.

“Maybe we should ask this for help.”

The table shook again and scooted closer to them. Codie shrieked and Nikolas kicked the table over. The ouija board slid across the floor and the piece stopped on T.

“I’m getting the heck out of this house,” replied Codie as he ran over to the attic door.

The stairs folded up and the door slammed shut on its own, causing Codie to fall back and scream again.

The ouija board cursor moved again and they both turned to see it on O. P. S.

“My bloodlust never stops?” Nikolas spoke aloud.

The board burst in flames. A spectral viking face could be seen in the flames, he was silently screaming and gnashing his teeth as the flames roared and rose. “Oh my god!” screamed Codie.

“At least the house isn’t catching fire!” cried out Nikolas. “Nikolas! Come on! We’re getting attacked by a ghost!”

“Sorry! I’m just panicking!” he said.

The ghost stepped out of the dying flames, the full figured frame of a dead viking, still bloody from battle. He was clear as day, slightly transparent, and had a glowing blue hue to him.

The two of them screamed. Nikolas shook the 8-ball violently. “Am I going to die?!”

“NIKOLAS!” cried out Codie, almost as angry as he was scared. The 8-ball made a low loud that sounded like an elephant’s foot step and they both looked to the screen on it.

“Only if you don’t repeat the incantation.” “What in the world!? What incantation!?” cried Codie.

The viking snarled loudly and swung around his spectral axe, slicing through another box of toys and papers. The sliced items showered upon the attack like a hail storm. There was another thud from the 8-ball.

“Stell’bsna uln orr’e hupadgh shogg shtunggli shugg.”

Codie immediately cried out the words before Nikolas could say anything. The 8-ball began to shake in his hand and his eyes began to hurt. He dropped the ball, which shattered and vanished as the ghost took a step back. Nikolas clutched at his eyes and cried out in pain.

Codie reached out to touch him, but immediately pulled back in pain, his hand covered in frost.

“Nikolas?” He looked up at the ghost and muttered something. The ghost screamed a ghostly wail as he began to seize and twist as hands made of shadow burst forth from him. More hands reach out from the corners of the attack and tore him apart, dragging him into the shadows and vanishing. His screaming face was the last part to be stolen into the dark, the ghostly scream fading away as something sinister gurgled an unearthly noise.

Nikolas fell forward and passed out. Codie hesitantly reached out to touch him, finding him safe to touch now. He then helped get him out of the attic and down onto a couch. When he laid him out, he gasped with shock. Nikolas’ eyes had been bleeding. As Codie began to dial an ambulance and loudly pray for his friend to wake up, Nikolas suddenly awoke.

“Codie? Did we die?” he choked out.

Codie slammed the phone down and ran over to him.

“Do you need help!? How are you feeling? What happened!?”

“Dude, stop crying,” Nikolas said as he rubbed his head as if he had been up drinking.

Wiping the blood from his face, he looked at Codie in shock.

“I feel a little groggy, but the last thing I remember is the 8-ball.”

“Oh thank god you’re okay. You suddenly said some kinda spell and the ghost was just totally destroyed. I almost felt bad before I remembered he was gonna butcher us.”

“Oh my,” Nikolas said staring at his hands. “Well. We’re safe now. Thank god for that 8-ball, right?”

There was a sudden knocking at the door. Nikolas immediately grabbed Codie’s arm and locked eyes with him. The grip felt a little cold. “Don’t answer that,” he whispered plainly.

Codie shifted his weight nervously as he looked to the door. “Really, please don’t,” Nikolas responded, this time worried.

“Please let me go,” he asked and as soon as he finished saying it, Nikolas let him go.

As Codie approached the door, he heard Nikolas scurry into the kitchen. There was almost the faint sound of heavy metal as he opened the door. Codie gasped as he stared out at the strange visitor.

A man was standing at the door with a noose around his neck. The rope hanging from his neck had been cut and hung just past his chest, almost like a crude leash. The man was wearing a leather jacket that looked like it had been through hell and had several questionable stains on it. He was rugged, dirty, and unkempt judging from his look in general. A cracked motorcycle helmet was hiding his face.

Codie could feel an obscene anger radiating off of this man. He tried to slam the door, but the man’s hand shot out like a blur to catch it.

“Did you do it on purpose?” he growled.

“W-what?” he stuttered “The 8-ball,” he said, literally pressing his helmet against Codie’s face and causing Codie’s knees to wobble with fear.

“I don’t know what I did.”

“There are other ways to deal with ouija problems, but 8-balls are far worse. Summon your dark beast and I’ll save your soul before it’s too late.”

“Huh?” he said, starting to involuntarily tear up.

“He’ll still listen to you, ask him to come out here.”

“Don’t do it!” shouted Nikolas. The stranger pushed his way inside as knives flew out of the kitchen. He punched the blades aside and leapt into the kitchen with an angry guttural yelling. Codie listened as the battle ravaged the kitchen and simply sat down on the couch.

I guess the wedding is off?
