When I first saw this was uploaded, I watched it 28 times, and proceeded curl up into a ball on my bed, and was unable to breathe regularly. In Hamilton, we never got the chance to hear ā€œOAKā€ sing. Its been a rare occasion to hear his melodic voice SING. His ability to seamlessly blend two beautiful songs from a show he HAS done and a show he WILL do in his own heavily-stylized way takes my breath away. The amount of talent shown in this one video astounds me, and he in general makes my heart beat just a bit faster. What did we do as fans to deserve him?!

  • SELL NEW YORK CITY DOWN THE RIVAAAARRRR
  • the sound of realization in burrā€™s voice when he understands hamiltonā€™s master plan
  • when you got skin in the game you stay in the game
  • that musical reprise ofĀ ā€˜wait for itā€™ used to mock burr
  • WHAT DO YOU WANT BURR WHAT DO WANT BURR IF YOU STAND FOR NOTHING BURR WHATā€™LL YOU FALL FOR
  • burr finally deciding to take action for the first time and the slow rise of confidence in his voice and the tempo swelling in the background
  • the jazz influences because Jeffersonā€™s rubbing off on him
  • THAT BIG OLD ROOM
  • ā€˜hold your nose and close your eyesā€™
  • WE DREAM OF A BRAND NEW START

i know this is weird but im posting this here because it actually helped me draw better. it made me realize that you need to keep all aspects of a drawing roughly the same level of detail.

This is how I draw hands.Ā I simplify the shape and then later I will add the necessary details. It makes it easier to get them right. But the only way to learn how to draw hands is to just keep drawing them.

How to make a character's death sadder

  1. Ā Donā€™t have them die of old age after a long, fulfilling life. Many people donā€™t even think of this as sad (note that this can still work if you have enough of the other factors).
  2. Ā Leave one of their major goals unfinished. The more enthusiastic they are about completing the goal, the sadder.
  3. Ā Give them strong relationships with other characters.
  4. Ā Make them fight against whatever is causing their death. Their ultimate loss is sadder if they struggle.
  5. Ā Kill them in the middle of their character arc.
  6. Ā Donā€™t describe their funeral in detail. Maybe itā€™s just me, but I find that long descriptions of funerals kill the sadness.

Thatā€™s enough Satanā€™s publisherā€¦

>B)

7. If possible, try to kill them off in the middle of the story, so we had time to like them and we will have time to let the loss settle in.

8. Also, place surviving characters in a situation where having the deceased person there would help them get out. You can choose whether you will point this fact out or if you want the audience to make the connection themselves.

9. Make them die by sacrificing themselves to save someone they love from a danger created by the antagonist.

based on a few deaths that made me blub like a babyā€¦

10. have their loved one, broken hearted, tell the team to stop fighting because ā€œits over.ā€Ā 

11. have their pet come looking for them.Ā 

12. have their loved one perform a popular song at their funeral so it makes the fans cry whenever itā€™s played.

13. family witnessing the death and/or blaming themselves.

soā€¦ letā€™s add some frustration to your dear readersā€™ sadness, shall we?

14. kill the character in the middle of making a joke, smiling, or expressing/experiencing joy/happiness.

15. make the characterā€™s death slow and painful, but make them unable to call out for help even though they can literally see the other characters nearby.

16. after killing the character, have others think the character had betrayed them so theyā€™d always hate them and remember them as traitors and never say nice things about themā€¦ Give your readers no chance to have group-therapy with other characters by making them the only ones who know the truth.

17. right before their death, show a side of them nobody has seen. (someone who is always tough and brave being genuinely scared of dying alone; someone who is always laughing being in tears before dying, etc.)

18. make them the only person who knows a big important secret that would help other characters in the story.

19. have them being lied to before dying. (thinking theyā€™ve been betrayed; thinking they werenā€™t loved; thinking theyā€™ve lost their loved ones, etc)

20. make the character very enthusiastic/passionate about a certain goal, constantly put stress on their goal, have them die unexpectedly before they can reach their goal.Ā 

and the best oneā€¦

21. have another beloved character kill themā€“better be a close friend to your character, one that absolutely nobody suspects, one that everyone canā€™t help but love, one who is always enthusiastic about things and encourages your character. THEN

  • reveal the truth only later when itā€™s too late and the a-hole character has already escaped.
  • have a cowardly character know the truth and never tell anyone else
  • have another character find out the truth and have them die before revealing it to others.Ā 
  • have the said character ^ not actually die, but go through something so theyā€™d forget the friend of the deceased character is actually an asshole.Ā 

This way only your readers will know the truth, thus the frustration would beā€¦ most enjoyable for you.

Satan out.

22. Donā€™t kill their body.Ā  Kill their mind.

Leave the physical shell walking and talking, but strip out everything that made that person who they were.Ā  Make them forget all about their loved ones, themselves, their experiences and past, their skills, and have them have to start over completely from scratch.Ā  Physical and mental disabilities bonus points.

And keep them in a place where their loved ones will be taunted every day by a living ghost.

based off of the one character death that physically pains me to think about

23. Make the character a very loving and caring family person, whether itā€™s with their siblings or parents, their partner, or their children. Make them talk about how much their family means to them frequently. Kill them off before they could even say goodbye.

Bonus points if they have a very young child who means the world to them.

More bonus points if their family member kills them, or they believe their family member to have killed them.

THIS MAKES ME SO INSPIRED TO FINALLY KILL THE SINNAMON ROLL IN CRITICAL SURVIVAL

Give me a number and a ship and Iā€™ll write something šŸŽ‰
