it’s OBVIOUS that eliza’s caught on to the fact that j.d.’s doing LESS THAN FINE. it’s a hard day, that’s for sure. october 17th is a day that he dreads, and is likely to dread FOREVER – at age seventeen, now, today marks EIGHT YEARS since his mother had passed. if you’ve never lost a PARENT before, everyone always tells you the STINGgoes away after a little while – that’s not true. there’s an ACHE that no one understands, and YOU CARRY IT WITH YOU FOREVER. this he knows. ❛ i’ll live, ❜ he comments, plowing his fork through his DINNER, staring at the table. he tried to understand the SCRATCHES in the wood, but they were lost on him. he stopped trying after that. talking about his mother felt like talking about a STORYBOOK CHARACTER – she seemed so far away, such a happy world from the bleak reality he’d found himself living in. ❛ she – was kind, ❜ he starts, allowing his hands to DROP from their previously lifted position. GREEN IRISES train on NOTHING – glancing at the PAINT on the WALLS, as if trying to find a complicated meaning in it, even though there was NOTHING THERE. ❛ way nicer than my dad. ❜ this is said with the ghost of a LAUGH, and a hand that wipes across his face. ❛ what … do you want to KNOW about her ?? ❜
she sent him a sad smile, sighing as he started talking. she didn’t know what she wanted to know about her, she just wanted to know what made him HAPPY. ❛ i guess–– i guess i want to know more of what she looked like, or just what she was like. you DON’T have to answer if you don’t want to j.d.. i already feel BAD for bringing it up but, i guess my curiosity just got the best of me. ❜ she bit down on her lip, standing up as she took his plate away. ❛ did she LOVE you? ❜
that question made her frown, and she sucked in a deep breath, hoping that it would turn out to be an OKAY answer. ❛ i mean you’ve mentioned before, some BAD stuff about your dad, but rarely ever your mom. i fear that it is probably a touchy subject for you, but i just want you to know that you can talk to me about ANYTHING. ❜ she sat back down, and her hand went to his arm, sending him a soft smile as her eyes soften for a moment. ❛ now please, tell me what you please. whether it be her name or what she looked like, i’m sure she was beautiful if she had you. ❜

LAW OF THE LAND.
welcome to my blog! i'm sure that you'll find that everything is not in order, and you know what, that is alright. right? i'm trying my hardest as a female with anxiety issues, so just let me be yeah? my name is sydney, i got by she/her pronouns, and boy do i love broadway.
i am selective with who i rp with, and i'm really sorry if i don't follow you back. it does not mean that i don't like your blog, and you are amazing, i already know that. i either don't see our writing meshes well together, or i just don't see our characters interacting. i do have exclusives, and i do have mains. i however, refuse to have exclusives for alexander, as there are too many that i rp with. here are a few mains and exclusives:
i do make some ooc post on the daily, more than i do reply to starters. lately i have a lot on my mind, and i like to speak, and then try to debate on whether or not i post it, because i think i'm funny. i am a slow repiler, so please just bare with me.
please, please, do not be afraid to do ships with me. i love ships, and i love everything about that. but, i will do things with chemistry, and please understand that i don't really like doing planned ships.
about graphics, all were either made by me or for me. my theme background was made by @patriotread and my icons were made by my friends. the only icons i make are the ones that are used for modern or teen eliza. please do not steal any of these, but i doubt you will, all of my musical icons have my url on them.
there are a lot of basic rules that i feel like people should know, and if you have any other questions, please message me. i am not a scary person, i scare myself sometimes but i try not to scare other people. i have no hidden messages or anything like that, so please do not be afraid to rp with me.
verses
BEFORE THE WAR.
BEFORE DEATH.
AFTERMATH.
MODERN/AU.
SCHUYLER SISTERS.
this will take place before eliza has ever even met alexander. she is just bff's with her wonderful sisters, and nothing will stop her from being happy with them.
HELPLESS.
this is when she is writing to alexander/before they have their first born. this will be used also while alexander is off at war, and before she tells him that she is pregnant.
THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH.
in this verse, she is pregnant with philip, and it is everything after that and before the reynolds pamphlet. alexander can be cheating during this time, but eliza, obviously, has no idea about it. they also have more kids throughout this time, so it'll mainly be when everyone is little and happy.
BURN.
obviously, this is reynolds time, and it's not a happy time. this is the verse where eliza does get heartbroken, and where she is having the most difficult time forgiving her husband. she loves him dearly, but she is also trying to decide whether or not she can go on. before she could, however, philip dies in her arms, and they move uptown.
MATTER OF TIME.
this is after alexander's death, and eliza has lost almost everyone in her life. she goes on to open an orphange, she interviews so many people that worked with alexander; she does it all to carry on his legacy. it starts with hamilton, and ends with hamilton.
TO BE ALIVE RIGHT NOW.
this is the baby teen verse omg yes. it will mainly be in modern times, and the face-claim for this will be arden cho. i felt as if she fit best for this, and if that makes you angry or something, please come and tell me, but girlie i couldn't find a better fc so if you have one.
HALF DRESSED A MESS.
this will be the college verse that i do have planned. i haven't been able to use this as much as i would like, but i have stuff in mind. eliza is studying to be a nurse, and she is also engaged to alexander, since i still think they would have gotten married at a young age either way.
SUMMER IN THE CITY.
a happy time, where this is just modern eliza. i have debated on what to do about her eight kids, considering i really can't just erase them. in this verse, it's mainly just that eliza constantly gets pregnant, and by their fifth kid, alexander and eliza just gave up. it's not taking place in college, or anything like that. also, in this verse, i don't think that he would have cheated on her, considering there are a lot of things that differ from it.
I THOUGHT YOU WERE IN HUFFLEPUFF.
her father was a wizard while her mother was a muggle, making her a half-blood. at eleven she got accepted into hogwarts and was off, trying to make everything seem alright for her. she was put into gryffindor, but everyone she met thought that she was in hufflepuff, but that wasn't the case at all. her wand is a 13 inch with laurel wood and the core is made of unicorn hair.
