Very Long List Of Things I Loved In Hamilton

In the first verse its him being hopelessly in love. I specifically used the phrase "You were mine" over and over in reference to the signing of all their letters between each other with "yrs" and the last one was signed "yrs forever" and he sent it a day before Laurens died so we dont know if he even got it. Never getting over that. Then we have the classic homophobic dad, shattering his manic pixie girl dreams (he wanted to live in a cottage in the woods with Alex and 17 cats). Then the next verse is about how helpless he made him feel (reference) and you know when you like someone and its all wobbly and they consume your every waking thought and they can send you spiraling with a glance. Yeah that. Then "trying to find an explanation for every line" is him panicking because what if people find out? How will I make them think we were just guys being bros when its so painfully obvious I loved him? Are we throwing away our shot (reference) at making the history books with this relationship? Is it worth it? Then he realises that history has its ways of doing that for them, somewhere along the line it'll get twisted and our relationship will be called platonic. Then he's wondering if he really wants that? It's dangerous to pretend. It's just not true. Homophobic dad part 2 when he finds the letters. [Enter homophobic dog meme: I know what you are] Now he turns on Alex, he says Alex doesn't care for their legacy, Laurens worries for their impact on history which he might not get to make if this gets out. "they will erase us from the narrative" and Laurens being glad they will, and then the repeated phrase "the war never ended". this bit is important because it has a double meaning. 1: When the war ended, he died straight after, so yes, for him the war never ended it pretty much carried on to the end of his life. 2: His inner battles/war over his relationship w Hamilton and all the other internal stuff, which is what the song is about. This is followed up by the realisation that the world has no right to know about their personal lives, basically. Then the final decision to keep the memories. The last line is a quiet "i hope they dont burn" in reference to the letters/memories.

Oof thats a lot. okay i hope you enjoyed

Burn (Laurens' version)

I saved every letter you wrote me

From the moment I read them,

I knew you were mine

You said you were mine

You really were mine

Do you know what my father said

When I ripped your first letter open?

He said, "Be careful with that one, son

I don't see a point in you hoping,"

You and your words flooded my senses.

Your sentences left me defenseless

You ruined palaces with your paragraphs

You wrecked cathedrals

I'm re-reading the letters you wrote me

Trying to find an explanation for every line

Each word is a sign

You really were mine

The world could just burn

Burn

They'll destroy all the letters I wrote you

They'll fool the whole world into thinking that we were just friends

A dangerous game

They have hidden our lives.

Do you know what my father said

When he found the letters in file

He said, "In all your affections,

He is making you more than just smile,"

You and your words,

No care for our legacy

Your sentences border on senseless

And I am made paranoid by every paragraph

How will they perceive you?

You, you, you

They will erase us from the narrative

Let future historians wonder,

What happened to Laurens?

When the war ended

The war never ended

I watch my heart burn

Watching it burn

The world has no right to my heart

The world cannot see in my head

They don't get to know what I said

They're burning the memories

Burning the letters

That might have exposed you

I wish you could stay in my heart

You won't leave your place in my head

I'll love you in silence instead

I'm keeping the memories of when you were mine

I hope they don't burn

So this is a rewrite of Burn from Hamilton in the perspective of John Laurens because they were gay. Idk what else to say tbh. ill post an analysis of it later if i can be bothered

where are you going?

Also yk you can watch the full play on disney ??

Me listening to the whole of Hamilton so me and @leftoverspacedust can nerd together.

yeah. it would suck if you were a swan who grew up with ducks and never saw another swan so just thought you were a duck with something super wrong with it.

Hey… buddy. I need an idea for a zine. Something good enough for 8 pages of drawing with a mouse. And if I like what the marbles rattling around in your head say? Who knows. God knows they're sharp enough.

First of all i love the song

as for a zine idk honestly but ive made one that defines a bunch of different words

but also you could do like an odyssey type thing with a mouse tryna get somewhere or do something but they keep getting inturrupted or distracted?

its me and my twelve cold half cups of tea against the world

sorry i cried in front of you. do you still think im cool?

Okay but think about Regulus being trans and his parents being okay with it. Obviously at first theyre not, they have Sirius as a son and they need a daughter to show off for them and get married to a rich man and all that but. when sirius runs away and gets disowned, they decide to endorse Regulus and let him transition, dressing it up as allowing him to be his authentic self but really all they want is a male heir and they know Regulus will be better at it than Sirius

I don't speak Portuguese 😭 same difference ig

also ALL FIVES??

(translation: blinks at the bastard and crawls up the wall on all fives)

Hallo its @iloverocks51 your bestie westie, I'm just here to say hi and bye. Tchau minha adorável besteira favorita *pisca timidamente e corre de fora de quatro*

☆〜（ゝ。∂）

omg hi dude not the Portuguese (translation: Bye my favorite adorable bestie *blinks shyly and runs outside on all fours*)

mmmmmm platonic prongsfoot and platonic moonwater paired with romantic jegulus and wolfstar.....
