alex & eliza strikes again: revolutionary use of freeze frame epilogue narration
spoiler warning for alex & eliza love & war, if there's anyone who cares enough about that book to need it lmao.
i fucking love the second book in the alex & eliza trilogy because right at the end of part 1 (didn't even realize there were parts until i was told it was the end of part 1) it has a whole-ass epilogue montage like those corny sitcoms that freeze frame and go: "johnny would go on to become the world's greatest ice-cream test taster".
one moment we're going through what is supposedly a historically accurate story where after the battle of yorktown, aaron burr tells betsey that alexander is alive by delivering a letter where her husband, the quintessential 18th century man, writes:
"pack your bags, my dearest! we are moving to the city! - A."
and the next, we're suddenly in italics for around 20 pages of a textbook recounting of the next few years - the author throws away all the historically accurate emotional moments like laurens' death. absolutely incredible.
also: there's no philip? we have a mrs. schuyler birthing scene but there is no mention of the hamilton couple's first child. i'm so confused. where on earth is philip hamilton, and can we put up a missing child poster for him?
so here's a little taste of what the epilogue section reads like:
“Chief among these visionaries was Alexander Hamilton, whose accomplishments during the Revolutionary War would soon be overshadowed by the work he did for the budding republic. ”
oh i'm sorry 5th grade social studies textbook. this isn't foreshadowing, this is straight up telling the reader what's going to happen next lmao.

Currently working on my first Hamilton fanfic (Cozy). The bases is that Hamilton is reincarnated in his thirties on the shore of the Hudson in our time of 2024. It isn’t until he stumbled into the city that he starts to realize the drastic change in era. He meets a woman named Lisa (short for Elizabeth) who mistakes his outfit for a “Hamilton” cosplay. Once she asks about it, Alex gets confused and tries to tell her who he really is. Obviously she’s reluctant at first and thinks he’s crazy but she agrees to help him out. From here it’s mostly cozy/comedic vibes hense the title.
However it won’t be totally dry of plot because Hamilton wasn’t the only one who reincarnated. His dearest, John Laurens, awoke on the shore of the Combahee River in South Carolina in similar distress.
And perhaps darling Aaron Burr has as well…
This fic will be a Hamilton/Laurens/Burr semi-cozy love story. There will also be a lovely cameo of Jefferson/Madison.
Also Hamilton may turn into an AO3 girly 🤣

laurens
eliza
burr
madison
(once again these are personal headcanons idc if the historical canon says other wise 🙈 these are just fun)
Laurens
very poor relationship with his family (especially henry). part of the reason he joined the military was to get away from him and his expectations. he's closer with his mother, but it's still strained. he adores his siblings tho, even if henry kind of pitted them against each other
he's a skilled painter and spends his spare time sketching. he once tried to teach alexander, but quickly realized that it was one skill hammy would never possess (this would make such a cute fic ngl)
his favorite season is autumn because he likes the colors and the crispness of everything
he's protective almost to a fault
Eliza
in my mind she will always be a beyond talented pianist! like to the point she's like a virtuoso. she writes her own music and secretly dreams of publishing it. she pens music after major life events, and it sort of acts as her diary (after she met alex, when angelica moved to london, when she had philip, after the affair.) she's basically taylor swift
smells so incredibly good (shhh I know it's the 1700's but let me live) but she smells like expensive perfume (you know the type) sugar, and strawberries
she's a cat person!
she has an aptitude for mathematics, and that's why she would act as alexander's advisor so much. she's educated in literature, philosophy, and history as well, but angelica has always been more vocal about it, so she doesn't get a chance to shine as much as she should
Burr
oh my beloved burr :(((( he has a lot of unresolved trauma. from the pressures of his family's legacy, to his (canonically) abusive uncle, and the religious trauma of being jonathan edwards' grandson, he has a lot of pent up sadness that he won't let himself feel. he's an anxious mess most of the time, and all of these reasons are why he feels like he can't rush into things and make mistakes.
also a cat person. he loves cats so much. he dotes on them. he would have twenty if he could. in the war, he would go out of his way to feed any strays around and would protect them, sometimes sneaking them into his quarters in his coat if it was particularly cold
he's a hopeless romantic, even if he's not vocal about it. he wants to be loved and to share the love he never got to give anyone. he wants to do all the courting things with someone, and make a life with them. his love language is practically all of them
after alexander's death, if he would go to any tavern or party or anything where there was music, he would request they sing how stands the glass around because that was what alexander sang at the last party they were at together. it's a form of punishment, but it's also because he can close his eyes and imagine Alexander is still there, even for just a moment. sometimes he thinks he can hear his voice interweaving with the others
Madison
he and dolley are a power couple. everyone wants to be them. they are the only really healthy relationship in canon. they are each other's best friend and madison's favorite place is by her side. he's not afraid to admit that she's the better half of him. (this is probably not true lmao but I'm too tired to look it up)
he very much has "gifted kid burnout" if you can call it that in the 1800s. he's tired. he's unwell. he just wants everything to work out for everyone, and for the people around him to chill and stop yelling for five minutes. he's like a long-suffering parent, and all but keeps jefferson on one of those backpack-leash combinations that kids wear in malls
actually doesn't mind hamilton that much. he doesn't agree with him on most things, and thinks he's annoying, but he still feels a bit worried about the man he once called friend. they were pretty close when they wrote the federalist papers, and they would often have dinners together where he found he actually enjoyed the company
he prefers the quiet. he finds it comfortable. he doesn't find it awkward if conversation lulls into silence (though it rarely does with the company he keeps)

Modern Au
Hoshido Inc is a modern Tech and retail company. It is known for being a great place to work at. It is also known to be a family company by witch i mean it’s handed down through the Burr family line. The current CEO is Sumeragi Burr and his 2nd wife Mikoto. His first wife died of a form of cancer. His eldest and first born child is named Alexander. 
“Have a good day at College Alex!” Said Mikoto giving her a packed lunch.
“Thank you step-mother.” She made sure it wasn’t said infront of her brothers and sisters. And then she left.
Mikoto sighed. “When will she see me as a mother figure...” She muttered.

Just watched Hamilton in the theatre and I just love how it's a masterclass in villainy.
Spoilers
One thing many writers gets wrong is making villains sympathetic. This can work but most of the time villains should be understandable not sympathetic.
Take Aaron Burr, he is understandable. You understand his actions and reasonings and why he kills Hamilton. You don't sympathise with him though, you understand him.
Aaron and Alex are foils, very similar characters. Both highly driven and determined willing to do anything for success and unwilling to back down and show weakness.
When they start disagreeing, you understand there anger and there responses and you also understand neither is willing to back down so it just builds until the two unstoppable forces meet in the climax. You don't hate either, both are in the wrong for failing to resolve a civil dispute betweens friend's but it works because you understand the characters and that this was an inevitability.

Workaholic
Lams (Alexander Hamilton x John Laurens)
.
.
.
.
3rd POV
Alexander was studying in Kings college library (Does it have one? Idk y'all don't judge me I'm just dumb) when Angelica Schuyler,the volunteer librarian,walked up to him."Alexander you've been here for five hours it's closing time" she said."Oh come on Angie please I've stayed past closing time before..." said Alexander. "Alexander... It's already past closing time I would've kicked you're workaholic ass out an hour ago if it wasn't for Eliza begging me to let you stay!" "Don't yell we're in a library..." "ALEXANDER IT'S EMPTY" "Jeez someone's on her period..." "... THAT'S.IT.OUT.NOW!" "Okay okay I'm leaving...But if I fail the exams it's your fault" "ALEXANDER HAMILTON THE EXAMS ARE IN EIGHT MONTHS GET OUT" Yelled Angelica and Alexander obligated.He look at his clock which read 11 p.m. 'It's too early to sleep...Guess some more work won't kill me' (Burr will :D) He said and walked up to his dorm which he oh so happened to share with his buddy (Yeah...Buddy *wink wink*) John Laurens...
John POV
I look at the clock and it reads 9 p.m. I guess waiting for Alex won't kill me...(Not making a pun on that cause I don't want to pay for therapy) I took Alex's book about the third U.S. president Daveed Diggs and started reading...
*an hour later*
It's 10 p.m. which means the library is closed...Which means Alex should be here...Why isn't he here yet? God I wish he wasn't such a workaholic...And he also makes it hard to care...You see I'm in love with Alex (you could say he's got you...HeLpLeSs) but it's so obvious he is straight...At least he's an ally though... That's good enough for me...I keep reading his book on his bed and accidentally fall asleep
*insert door opening*
I slowly wake up and see Alex,I read the clock and it's 11 p.m. "Where have you been I've been worried sick!" I said "I was at the library and...Is that my Daveed Diggs book?" "I thought you died and you wanna talk about Daveed Diggs?" "...Yes..." "Gosh Alex you have done all assignments for the next six months and have studyed for the exams...Which are eight months away!" I say trying not to yell "I wanna be prepared and...Did you next SIX months...OH MY GOD I MISSED A MONTH!!! LAURENS I'M GONNA FAIL I NEED TO STUDY" "Alex no" I say (Guess John could say no to this ;)) "Why do you care anyways it's my life!" He said "CAUSE I LOVE YOU" I yell. Alex stares at me with dumbfounded eyes "S-sorry I me-meant as a friend hehe..." I tried covering my confession up. "John...I don't love you" my heart drops "But I do have a like you...I. A more than just a friend way" Now it's my turn to stare,he notices my actions,comes closer to me and brushes his lips against my own and I kiss back..."Please work less it worries me" I say... "I guess for you I'll try not to be a workaholic..."

Okay, but I love Thomas Du Motier as an acting persona name, it sounds elegant... and the du motier twins has a nice ring to it! :D I also love that they were in ~everything~ not only the Disney stuff, but your good old horror as well...establishing that range early, huh... and ngl, I'd be kinda into the idea of Alex actually having liked their work, the stuff he's seen, before meeting Thomas (though even if that was the case, it obviously wouldn't stop him from trying to ridicule it). Would make me wonder how Thomas regards Alex's previous work, though!
*Anyway*, I'm actually dropping in with a different question for this, do you think Burr/James/Angelica/... will have a place in this AU? 🤔🤗 (I, too, am invested deeply already 😂)
Thank you for asking questions about this half-assed au,.,.., I’m.,.,,,, ahhhh🥺
Du Motier twins is very cute and iconic….. Thomas loves that they went with a French vibe. And yea I also like the idea that Alex likes their work!! Like he’d do “research” to find some iconic catchphrases he can parrot to piss off Thomas, and then find himself accidentally chuckling along with the laugh track.
Hmm I think Thomas (film snob and hater of sitcoms and “fluff” roles AKA most of Alex’s filmography) did not have a high opinion of Alex when it was announced they’d been casted as the leads, but he did go and watch some of Alex’s later work where he featured as a main/recurring character (and not as corpse #3 on CSI Miami, or corpse #28 on Grey’s Anatomy, or CSI Miami again as corpse #1…)
But he’d have to acknowledge that objectively Alex is good: very expressive, memorable, and to put that much heart and energy into every stupid little role is… impressive, for sure. However… he also noticed there were many instances where Alex stole the scene even though it didn’t make sense narratively (and Thomas can guess that wasn’t the director’s choice) and then there’s the hundreds of background roles Alex still took on once he became more prominent that should’ve been “beneath him”, which Thomas sees as a foolish waste of time.
As for Burr/James/Angelica, they don’t have a solid place in the au yet but I’ve toyed with some ideas for them
Burr: B-list actor same as Alexander, was actually the first choice for Alex’s current role when the movie was first greenlit but he turned it down for another movie by a big studio that was guaranteed to be a box office success. (It does decently, but the jamilton movie is a surprise hit and garners widespread critical acclaim + nominated for numerous awards. Burr is totally not jealous 😐)
James: nepo baby indie film maker who is very influential within his genre and won multiple awards which has made him highly sought out by studios, but so far he’s refused to compromise his vision™ to appeal to the mainstream audience. His work has a lot of horror, philosophical, and religious elements and they’re the type of movies you have to watch twice to catch all the details. He and Thomas met way back when the twins were in The Shining (dir. James Madison Sr.) and Thomas has appeared in a few of James’s films since coming back
Angelica: famous singer who dabbles in acting, although most of her film industry involvement is cameos or being a part of a move soundtrack. I’m not sure if she’d play a role in the jam movie, maybe as a side character?

⋆ there's a lake i know ⋆
characters ☆ alexander hamilton, aaron burr pairings ☆ alexander hamilton/aaron burr
tws ☆ almost drowning
whumpcember day 5. impaled alt 3. drowning + alt 4. ice coming up w/the title of this chapter was way too hard lmao also apologies - this one is a bit late bcs i fell asleep
fic under cut
✦•······················•✦•······················•✦
Burr rolled his eyes, a chuckle escaping him as he watched Hamilton stumble on the ice. He had proposed ice skating for their date, and Alexander had shyly admitted that he had never skated before. Aaron had been more than willing to teach.
With swift strides, he made his way onto the frozen lake, stopping next to Alexander, who looked at him, mouth open with astonishment.
“What— how do you do that? I can barely stand!” Alex asked, a smile on his face. Then, as if to prove his words, he lost his balance, falling into Aaron’s arms, who catched him easily.
“A lot of practice. I’ve also been doing this since I was like four, so…,” Aaron trailed off as he helped Alexander back up. The other hit him playfully.
“How do you even move on these?” Alexander’s focus drifted back to the task at hand as he looked down at his skates. “It’s like— I don’t know, it’s like I was just born? Do babies feel like this all the time?”
Aaron laughed, causing Alex to shoot him an exasperated look. Gently, Aaron grabbed his hands, starting to skate backwards, his pace slow. “Just follow me.”
Alexander staggered a little at first, but he soon got the hang of it, smiling as his boyfriend guided him. Aaron felt his heart melt. He would give anything for that smile, anyday, anywhere, anytime.
“You think you can try to do it alone?” Aaron asked, and Alexander nodded. Aaron let go and watched from the side as Alexander took a few small steps before picking up the speed. Soon he was nearly flying across the ice, as if he was the one who had had years of skating experience.
Aaron tilted his head as his gaze followed Alexander, endearment evident in his eyes. The sun shone down, illuminating Alexander in a warm light.
Perhaps it was the admiring that distracted him, but next thing Aaron knew, there was a hole in the ice, a heartwrenching shout of fear echoed in his ears and Alexander was nowhere to be seen.
Alexander hadn’t been this happy in days. There had always been something in his subconscious, whether it be a project, an essay or an upcoming exam. Yet somehow Aaron could always find time and peace for them, a bubble in his usually hectic life for calming down.
Alexander looked at the trails he made in the ice, amazed at how natural ice skating felt after he had gotten the hang of it. He chuckled, let out a breath of relief, but then he heard an ominous crack, a hollow sound coming from under his feet.
Dread forming a pit in his stomach, Alexander looked down at the ice again, taking a hesitant step.
And then the cold swallowed him. He was drowning, he was drowning, he was drowning . He heard himself shout before water covered him, and he was back on that island, water everywhere, screaming, crying, thunder, water, so much water.
His lungs were burning, his eyes were stinging, images of those dead bodies flashing in his mind. He needed to get out, he needed to get out .
Alexander struggled to push his body upwards, expecting the sweet rush of air, but instead, he was met with ice. Even more panic surged through him, his heartbeat ringing in his ears.
But then he emerged, gasps turning into coughs as he scrambled to get a grasp on the slippery ice. Everything was blurred, he couldn't get a hold of the ice, he was going to drown—
“Alexander!” a sharp, familiar voice rang out and Alexander saw something being thrown next to him. “Grab the rope!”
So he did. Alexander channeled all of his remaining energy into clasping his hands around the thick item, only relaxing when he felt arms wrapped around him.
Aaron held Alexander close to his chest, gently patting the other’s back as coughs racked his body. Eventually they stopped, and Alexander took deep breaths. Aaron’s brows were furrowed, tears brimming in his eyes as what had just happened sunk in.
God, he had almost lost Alex.
“Shh, you're safe now. You're safe, you're safe, you're safe…,” he repeated it like a mantra, unsure which one of them he was trying to convince.
Alexander sighed and leaned into Aaron, his breathing slightly unsteady. Then he closed his eyes and shivered slightly. “Cold,” he whispered softly.
Sure enough, his lips did seem a little bluish as his teeth chattered. Aaron sighed, gathered himself before picking Alex up.
“Whuh- Where are you-,” Alex started, but Aaron shushed him.
“We're going to get you warm,” he said, the comfort of their dorm already in his mind. Maybe he could also get a cup of hot chocolate for Alex.
Upon hearing this, the boy in his arms relaxed, nodding slightly. “‘kay.”

teammates asking their race engineer to give the team’s other driver a message (usually words of encouragement or helpful information about the race). 
That sounds cute and pure and like something Jam would not be doing at all, unless forced otherwise. More like "tell him that I'm going to murder him if he does that again" / "tell him I'd like to see him try", that sort of vibe
'information about the race' leads me to think about Burr (when still his teammate) giving extremely vague info to Alex on purpose, because that would be so in character (but the team must have the data to compensate for that so that probably isn't realistic)

you're right about that haha i think gil and john* would filter** their bs for them tho
*previous anon, are you happy that i made an executive decision on that one now
**simply not pass on the message
'information about the race' leads me to think about Burr (when still his teammate) giving extremely vague info to Alex on purpose, because that would be so in character (but the team must have the data to compensate for that so that probably isn't realistic)
i honestly don't think burr would want to win/be better than alexander due to underhanded tactics, and relaying vague information is still more than none at all, which then in turn would also make him look good lol 
(i don't see alexander as someone who uses the radio a lot outside of the things he has to communicate - tunnel vision and all once he's in the race - so burr being the amicable one/the one who works well in a team should in theory also make him the one who gets to keep his seat with the team, right? (no.))

with the whole recent discussions of “what if Laurens lived”, I was wondering what would have become of Philip Hamilton had he lived in your opinion? I’m in love your blog and research:]
Y'all are torturing me this November.
To be quite honest, if he didn't die/attend in the duel with Eacker — what would have stopped him from just getting into another duel? Because that is what most likely what would have happened. But to spare the angst, lets just say he lives;
Philip most likely would have accomplished what he was raised to do, become the Hamilton family dynasty, and follow in his father's footsteps. Likely becoming a successful and great lawyer since he had his “daddy's name and wealth” to give him a great start. And considering how involved and aware of politics he already was at age nineteen, there's no doubt he would have taken up that role as well and kept his father's ideals of the country still in the government system after Hamilton would step down. Some biographies claim that Philip was being “groomed” to become president, so perhaps there's that. But he definitely would have met the heavy expectations that were placed upon him. But I'm not sure how well he would go into finances. There's the wishful thinking he would play some part in abolishing slavery, or at least work against it as John Church and Lil Phil had. But likely not anything too influential.
Because he was the hier and supposed to set the example for his siblings, I'm sure he would have married and have a large family. But then again, many of the Hamilton's children didn't have many kids of their own ( Alex and William never had kids, James only had three, and Phil had two, but John had fourteen so who knows ).
I doubt he would be any incentive for Hamilton to refuse the duel with Burr, considering that his actual death wasn't enough to sway Hamiltons mind. So, he would probably do what James had done and helped his mother take care of the estate, and helped his brothers start their careers. Considering he would be stable before all this, I'm sure it would solve a lot more of Elizabeth's original poverty troubles, since he would be able to financial support his family. Likely keeping the Grange and even moving in and owning it with his own family and mother. And most definitely would have worked restlessly with his family to preserve Hamilton's legacy. Similarly to his brothers, he would have enlisted in the war of 1812 to get a military name. Considering his headstrong and prideful attitude, I'm sure he craved battlefield action like his father, but in the end; would have favored politics.
I also think due to Hamilton's death with all the responsibilities he would have to take on, he likely would have matured from his rebellious teenage years. But for creative liberty and thought, he would likely still have issues with alcohol considering how much he turned to it during his teen years. Still getting into bar fights, or even just political fights that turn physical. Additionally I'm certain he would still get involved with duels, and likely would have challenged Burr ( Though I doubt he would accept ). But considering his reckless and hotheaded nature, he likely would have turned out a disliked and disagreeable figure like his father.
In the end, Philip's life was heavily constructed upon the ideal of Hamilton's life; and that probably would have never changed.

Hamilton fic recs
just some of my favorite ham fics I think you should read. These are all pretty random, but in the future I'll have a theme and a set ship for the lists. These are all complete btw.
To Burr’s dismay, the message was not a summons. His stay in New York was to be extended. His personal business may have been complete, but his professional business was not. The revolutionary sentiment in New York had reached a tipping point, and General Montegomery wanted Burr to do something about it.
Along the way, Burr meets - and is quickly enchanted by - a fellow revolutionary by the name of John Laurens. Their relationship grows as the revolution progresses, and Burr learns things about himself he will never forget.
August 20, 2011
John wakes up that morning in bed alone.
“You’re a brilliant man, Hamilton. As much as it may pain me to admit it. But stressing yourself so much, running so much… it’ll send you to an early grave. And that’d be a damn shame.”
~
After a fight with his roommates, Alexander asks Jefferson if he can stay with him for a while.
The spark ignites.
Humans are so noisy. Even after two hundred years, Aaron was not used to how loud, annoying, and abrasive humans could be, but Hercules Mulligan is different. Hercules hangs out with other supernatural creatures without batting an eye. He's talented with a needle and cute when he smiles. Aaron wants a taste of him.
"Eliza Hamilton, 27 years old, primary witness in the recent SIMCOE murders, found by her husband and son last night, bludgeoned to death. We have the husband and baby, also witnesses, in our custody and are waiting for the ‘go ahead’ on the new contingency plan."
Thomas just didn't expect to be so intimately included in said contingency plan.
a.k.a. the story where Alex and Thomas are forced by circumstances to play house against both their wishes

WIP Game
Rules: post the barebones plot of your WIPs and let people send you an ask with the title that intrigues them the most and then post a snippet/tell them something about it! Then, tag as many people as you have WIPs
Tagged by @echo-bleu 💜
I'm not doing ALL of them because that would take all day lol
Salt Water Calling (historical lams)
A merman AU in which John is a human dissatisfied with his life and Alexander is a mysterious sea creature who slowly builds up a connection with him. Some darker twists upcoming in this one.
Fate and the Fall (historical lams)
My bridgerton-esque AU! This one essentially follows the plot of season 2 of bridgerton, only instead of Anthony and Kate, we have John Laurens and Alexander Hamilton. Things also get steamy quicker than they do in season 2 of bridgerton because unlike those writers, I know what the people want.
A Better Place Since You Came Along (musical lams)
The little office AU that won't quit. Was supposed to be a one shot. Is now 69 chapters and still going. It follows Alex and John as they deal with post-college life, interning for Washington and falling in love in the process. John's father is a US senator in the south, so when their relationship is leaked to the public, things get complicated. Having proved himself valuable, when Washington decides to leave his company and run for office himself, Alex is offered a spot on his campaign staff. But can John and Alex's relationship survive as their lives go down separate paths?

Aaron arrives to stay for a while at General Schuyler's house while he studies to be a lawyer. He isn't expecting to find out that Alexander's pretty new wife isn't the only Schuyler he's involved with. But Aaron's always been good at improvising, and this... this he can work with.

Literally just professor/student smut
Gay Lighthouse Story (working title lmao- original work)
Growing up in a small, conservative town on the coast of Maine isn't easy for Blake, especially when he realizes his feelings for his best friend are more than platonic. He takes refuge in an abandoned lighthouse, a sanctuary away from his homophobic father. What he doesn't realize is his own story mirrors that of the past, a couple of boys who grew up in this very same town and who frequented this very same lighthouse. And one of them, it seems, never left.
Send me asks please! I love talking about my silly little stories.

DARLING DISSIDENT (hamilton)
"Are you indentured to them?"
Alexandra whirled around, eyes wide, "What?”
Aaron just stared at her blankly.
"No. Of course, not," Alexandra bit out, “Don’t be absurd. They would never.”
"So, you're doing this of your own volition," Aaron stated darkly, "It's dangerous business, espionage."
Alexandra crossed the floor quickly grabbing his wrist as she ground out, "Keep your voice down, you ridiculous man."
He dropped his voice to a harsh whisper, "If you are caught, you will be hanged just as well as any man. The British will not care what your sex is. They will punish you, torture you just as much as they would anyone. Maybe even more so."
Alexandra's eyes searched his, "Careful, Mr. Burr. If I didn't know any better, I would say it's starting to sound like you care about me."
"If you accept Washington's offer, you would be throwing your life away."
"What life, Mr. Burr? I love the Schuyler family as if they are my own, but dusting shelves, baking pies, lacing corsets? That is not the only purpose I want my life to have. You should have seen that the day we first met."
"Listen to me," Aaron's voice shook over his words as he grabbed her shoulders, "You could be killed.”
Alexandra's eyes glimmered, "And tell me why you care."
"Alexandra-" Aaron breathed, but the door to the balcony swung open at the same time.
OK NOW PERFIDY (jcs)
Judas was on the ground.
He was on the ground, cradled by Peter, while blood doused his lolled back head. Despite the sheer amount of it, Jesus could tell most of it was already drying, encrusting his brow, staining across his forehead, and even smearing down the side of his face. It was a testament to how long he had been gone, how long he had been hurt.
"What happened?" Mary was the one who actually managed to get the question out first. Jesus could only stare at Judas and his slackened face. It looked as if it were drained of blood despite the fact he had been out in the sun for most of the day. He was completely white under all the crimson that stained him.
He looked as if he were dead.
"He just stood there," Peter prattled wildly, arms tight around Judas, "Then he got this strange look on his face, and he- and he just-"
"Maybe he fell," John's small voice broke through the tense silence. He looked to his older brother hopefully, but it was only met with more quietness. They all knew better than that. People didn't look the way Judas looked by just falling. It also hung heavy in the air.
Something terrible had happened.
His Twelve erupted all at once with their theories. The chattering was nearly unbearable.
"He was at the market, right? He must have been robbed. That explains why he doesn't have any of our things."
"Or maybe it was his snark that finally got him in trouble. Maybe someone decided to finally shut him up."
"No, that doesn't make any sense. He doesn't even talk to anyone besides us-"
"Could it have been the Romans?"
"Quiet."
The word came out raspier and more growled than Jesus had meant for it to. The harshness did the trick, though. A hush immediately fell over them, leaving only the crackling fire and Peter's quickened breath for Jesus to hear.
He forced himself to move toward him.
"Judas?" Jesus kept his voice as soft as he possibly could as he crouched down, bringing a hand to the side of his battered face. He ignored the way his fingers shook as he did.
THERE I HOPE YOU LIKED THEM ALEX!! HOPEFULLY I’LL FINISH THEM SOON LMAO
