Hi, my name is beltome (I literally changed my alias name a day ago so)- I have no fucking idea how Tumblr works yet so I'm introducing myself with a post I made just now. I have a very inefficient sleeping schedule and I love Nutella
Hereās some fun facts about one of my favorite stories being told in Hamilton: this is Ariana Debose, who plays a special role within the ensemble known as The Bullet. Sheās killed for suspected espionage right after Youāll Be Back, and is the first one to die (not counting Hamiltonās mother or cousin who hangs himself).
After this moment, she becomes an omen of death. At the beginning of Stay Alive, she carries a shot that narrowly avoids hitting Hamilton. In Yorktown, she helps Laurens kill a redcoat, shakes his hand, then Laurens is the next to die. In I Know Him, sheās the one bringing the message to King George about John Adams and symbolically heralding the impending doom of Hamiltonās political career. During Blow Us All Away, sheās the one who tells Phillip where to find George Eacker, (and flirts with him! Phillip is literally flirting with death!) then Phillip is the next to die. In Your Obedient Servent, she brings the desk on stage and hands Burr the quill to write the first of several letters that will eventually lead to Alexander Hamiltonās death. During the final duel, she again catches a bullet (fired by Burr), and if you watch her, she gets closer and closer to hitting Hamilton while heās doing his soliloquy until Eliza pops onto stage. At this point, The Bullet is stopped by other members of the ensemble, the time freeze is abandoned, and we all know what happensā¬ next. (soure: JC Payne)
Iām usually a quiet shipper, I just have 6 or 7 ships total (among all my fandoms) and Iām always like: āCool! They would be nice togetherā, and thatās it. But this musical aaaaaah. It made me go trough three states of shipping.
One: Angelica, my puor baby, youāre too good for this world. I can feel you, sister.
Two: Eliza, Oh My God, you brave woman, you were the best wife Hamilton cuold have had.
Three (After reading Hamiltonās letters to Laurens): What the hell!!! Why do you have to hurt me so much!!
So, yeah, my ability of being a quiet shipper is apparentlly dead, like my poor heart.
