Here’s 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. She’s killed for suspected espionage right after You’ll Be Back, and is the first one to die (not counting Hamilton’s 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, she’s the one bringing the message to King George about John Adams and symbolically heralding the impending doom of Hamilton’s political career. During Blow Us All Away, she’s 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 Hamilton’s 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 he’s 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 happens next. (soure: JC Payne)
Broke: Geralt lets Jaskier help him bathe only after monster hunts because he needs a second pair of hands to comb through the monster guts
Woke: Geralt secretly likes that Jaskier helps him bathe and all the bath salts and oils Jaskier dumps in his bath but never says any of this out loud. Jaskier knows all the same
Bespoke: Geralt actively seeks Jaskier out to help him bathe and all but shoves the bath salts and oils in Jaskier’s hands because he has discovered the wonders of self-care and enjoys the Extremely Fancy baths Jaskier draws for him
Wainwright shooting Troy is so fucking funny because Wainwright is like one shade off from being a normal gay old man from Louisiana and Jakobs guns are straight up just normal fucking guns and Troy is a magical space witch with world rending powers who just gets SHOT by this normal-ass man.
It carries the exact energy of a real world Louisiana man seeing a possum in his yard and wildly overreacting.
