i think the new interpretations probably aren’t actually that glaring, i left the fandom a bit before covid so it small changes might’ve just been more obvious because of rapidly throwing myself back into it. also it’s probably just the people i follow, but the fandom feels a lot better at not getting neck-fucking-deep into fanon, myself included, and i’m just not seeing it with fanfiction eyes anymore ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ hell yes for discussion
even if they WERE glaring (yes i said the opposite abt spot to my other anon but the thing is that both r valid). it’s still only an interpretation. like idk. like
for me it’s less an issue with fanon because i think fanon is what makes this fandom so unique. and in the name of that, the othering of the uk production…. does not make sense. more interpretations of characters we’ve known for years only makes an individual’s interpretation of a character MORE NUANCED. which is also why this production slayed so hard bc there’s so much history and fan history as well.
to be fair i don’t see it in my circle of ppl i follow rly either but yk some people can’t just go and see the uk production so it’s easier to think of something they can’t access as separate or other, and for ppl who’s first intro is the uk production like we been around a long time but it’s all content very different from what they saw live.
basically i kind of think ooc for this fandom is dead in a way because you can kind of justify ur characterization very specifically at this point. like there’s lots of interpretations in fanfic that i literally despise but i can’t Exactly go up and be like ur wrong. like i wish i could but i can’t

Fun fact: inserting yourself into your favorite musical-movie is better than therapy, that is a scientific fact.

hamilton fanfic recommendations
2023 reflection post
fandom list, fanfiction request masterlist, written works, wips, asks, tags and mutuals under the cut
‎‧₊˚✩ 🪐✩˚₊‧ fandom list ‎‧₊˚✩ 🪐✩˚₊‧
hamilton (feel free to request for any hamilton ship, i love them all so much, alexander is the absolute DREAM for a multishipper. alexander is my main target for angst! this is my main fandom)
jesus christ superstar (jesus/judas or jesus/judas/mary mainly for jcs, but feel free to ask for any other ships and i’ll consider it!! and no, i am not religious. i have been raised christian, but just ended up with religious trauma)
a good girls guide to murder (pipravi fluff and angst :) but i’ll so gladly write fics about sal and andie, or becca. ravi is my comfort character, and i just torture pip relentlessly)
nevermoor (personally i’m more of a cadence/morrigan girly, but fics for nevermoor will mainly be gen! i love found family, so jupiter & mog fluff or angst is my favourite)
in the heights (canon ships mainly, but feel free to ask for other ships! i’m not in the ITH fandom much, so these are going to be much more inaccurate)
newsies (again, more gen fics, but i do ship dave/jack. also i love angsty crutchie fics. this is one of my smaller fandoms, so these will be super inaccurate)
keeper of the lost cities (preferably marella/linh or tam/keefe! but again, feel free to ask for any ship!!)
hunger games (gen, preferably. but i’m team peeta in case anyone was wondering. fuck gale.)
maze runner (okay i haven’t read or seen TMR in ages but newt/thomas)
divergent (canon ships only. and no, christina/tobias is not canon.)
six (gen all the way. found family. also i love katherine howard angst over any other queen)
the song of achilles (achilles/patroclus? literally what other ship is there????? this is my favourite book)
wednesday (wednesday/enid. i feel like this requires no explanation. also. angst fics. i almost exclusively write angsty wednesday fics, rather than enid. i love the whole of the addams family, and i love familial hurt/comfort)
marauders (i’m not in the marauders fandom much at all, like i really only know the actual hp canon marauders. so.)
Tumblr media
‎‧₊˚✩ 🪐✩˚₊‧ fanfic request rules ‎‧₊˚✩ 🪐✩˚₊‧
i’ll write for any fandom listed above, i love them all! however i am much more active in hamilton, agggtm, jcs, nevermoor and kotlc, so those fics will be much better than the other fandoms’ would be
i’ll write any genre other than smut, and angst/whump is my absolute favourite. any AUs you could think of, literally anything, i’m not picky!
i won’t write romanticised abuse, non/con, or anything like that. that’s not to say that my fics can’t have dark aspects, but i won’t romanticise any of that.
on that, i’m not going to write any non/con, romanticised or not
also, i won’t write omegaverse, nor will i write y/n or self insert fics. nothing wrong with those genres, i just don’t write them!

It’s Only A Matter Of Time - A Hamilton Watches Hamilton Fic
i wish i could say that was the last time
call me son one more time
when they surround our troops
then a hurricane came
take a break
and his right hand man…
she was holding me
the great war
we got traffic on the west side
steal into my affections
the fact that you’re alive is a miracle
fools who run their mouths off wind up dead
my father wasn’t around
philip, you would like it uptown
i may not live to see our glory…
an outrageous demand
stay alive
my dear, angelica
to convince you that i love you
but this situation’s helpless
like mother, like daughter (agggtm)
“but now this room is spinning…”
“i’ll call out your name but you won’t call back”
“like crying out in empty rooms, with no one there except the moon”
me in your sweater, you said it looked better on me than it did you (gifted to @holes-in-my-false-confidence)
baby it’s cold outside
the entire exposé (inspired entirely off of @jittyjames’ fanfiction series ‘the price of his war’)
my world is burning (yet another fic based off of jami’s series ‘the price of his war’)
i’m sorry if any of these links are incorrect, i spent over an hour on just this section

‎‧₊˚✩ 🪐✩˚₊‧ wips ‎‧₊˚✩ 🪐✩˚₊‧
achilles, come down (last two works in series still need to be written)

judas’ death (jcs angst fanfiction)
untitled (hamil-gang liminal spaces au longfic thing idk)
febuwhump drabbles (possibly)
be my valentine challenge
so big/so small (so big/so small from deh but hamilton and his ma)
bloom like rose thorns (a longfic that may or may not ever be finished)
rewrite of ‘i wish i could say that was the last time’ and ‘call me son one more time’

Would you maybe be willing to go over the process of tagging on ao3? I've never used it before so I can figure out most of it but the entire posting process is new to me
Of course! 
If you don’t mind, I’m just going to cover all of it, because you aren’t the first person to ask this. 
So- tagging! 
In simple terms, tags have the same purpose on AO3 that they do on Tumblr. They’re to inform you of the content, summarize and warn, and to help organize the search system. They can be complicated, and daunting, but can also be largely unique if one so chooses. I’ll explain how in a minute! 
By adding a tag, you are inserting your work into a list, or a system, of other works that fall under the same category. For example: if you are writing a Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski work, and you tag that relationship, the work will show up when you search that relationship. It’s one of AO3’s best features, and a way an author can gain popularity in a fandom. 
Now, starting at the top of your AO3 form, we have the rating. Now, I like to think of your rating as a movie rating. Everyone has a little bit of a different view on these, but for our collective purpose of explanations, let’s use this standard guide. 
The first one is general audiences. This is a PG rated movie. Minimal language, some sexual and adult jokes that might fly over someone’s head, and little to no violence. You would let your 11yo cousin read this fic and not be concerned. 
The next is teen and up audiences. This is your PG-13, TV-14. We’ve got curses going around, but not all of them. Sexual jokes, light sexual content that probably doesn’t go very far. If there’s violence, it’s Marvel movie, see blood but no gore style. 
Mature is where things get interesting. Say whatever you want, have the smut scenes, and shoot outs in the alleyways. Children aren’t allowed into this R-rated movie, but we all know it’s for the 15+ girlies who are reading on their computers in the dark. 
And explicit is anything goes, basically. If you’re reading an explicit fic, and you get surprised by what you see, that’s a you problem. ‘Tis the smuttiest of the smut, the most hardcore violence and angst, and characters run rampant in their actions and words. 
And then we have the warnings! These are what I consider to be the most important, because a lot of these things are triggers. It’s pretty self-explanatory, as you can pick and choose anything that applies. 
Fandoms is also pretty self-explanatory. You use AO3’s list of fandoms, and click whatever fandom you’re writing for. For this exchange, you would type Newsies, and select the options and forms of the show you took inspiration from. 
Categories is more confusing, I think, primarily because one can never decide if you want to click every button that applies, or just the important ones. In my personal experiences, I tend to just click whatever option represents the main ship I’m writing for, and then make sure I tag anything that doesn’t fit that category in the relationships tags. You are definitely free to select everything, though!
Relationships is pretty important, just for information purposes. Most people search AO3 through specific relationships they want to read, and so I make sure to tag everything I can, just for algorithm and accessibility reasons. You can tag the romantic relationships (the ones with the / between the two character names), platonic relationships (the ones with the & between the character names), and everything in between, depending on how you want your fic viewed, and how you want it sorted in the tagging system (by this, I mean if you want it put in the list of ‘x’ (ex. Harley Keener/Peter Parker) works, falling under a specific tag). And if you want viewers to be aware of the different relationships, especially the romantic and platonic ones, always double check that you have selected the right tag (again, for romantic there’s a /, and for platonic there’s a &).
Characters are also important, but I want to stress that you do not need to tag all of the character that appear in your fics. I would simply tag the ones the work focuses around, or that have an impact on the story. It will take you forever to tag everyone if you’re writing a longer story. 
Additional tags is another very confusing thing. A lot of people view them as similar to Tumblr tags, like I said earlier, and this is where you can have some originality, like the Tumblr tags. When I am adding additional tags, I will read the story as I tag it, and make sure I add tags that apply to the important bits. You can keep it professional, with just the tags that will help get you more readers, and trigger warnings; or you can have fun with it, and simply put your thoughts about the work there, as another summary; or you can do a mixture of both. I do a mixture, and will add tags that add the work to popular searches, and add a running commentary/summary as I do so. This part is completely up to you, and you can explore what you want to put by typing random letters or names (things will pop up by either most common or alphabetical order, depending on what you’re typing) into the search bar, just to see what shows. My main suggestion- and pretty steadfast requirement for this exchange- is that you make sure you have a tag for plot points that might be triggering for some. Other than that, the world is your oyster!
That’s it! Hope that helps! If you have any more questions, let me know!

ok new ramble (about newsies ocs) today so sit tight inside roosevelt's carriage and enjoy the ride
FIRST, I very much adore the world of newsies and the cast, and I so often think how interesting the story would play out with different roles or new characters--
SECOND, Sue me, but I like x readers, i LOVE x readers, i WRITE x readers and i love ocs and self inserts and If whoever reading this has rummaged through the newsies x reader tag, they'd see that quite often, the reader or oc is a newsie, or, a girlsie for whatever reasons, and, while that's pretty fun, I think that we could all totally have some fun with other types of dynamics and professions!!
I believe that Miss Medda and her theatre deserved to have a bit more lore and connection with the story OUTSIDE of Miss Medda herself. Do the newsies frequent the theatre? Are they friends with any of the singers, dancers, whatnot? Have THEY performed there once? Who's to think that the newsies haven't collaborated with Miss Medda to use her creative resources for activism during the strike (that would be very cool)?
Oh, and nothing gets me giggling, kicking my feet and feeling all giddy than a theatre romance-- Your OC/Reader performing the hell out of the show when they see a certain newsie in the audience? Writing a poem/song based off them, or, hell, for platonic feelings sake, dedicating a play to their strike?
And, hey, what about journalism? What about being Katherine's best friend? If you'd still like your oc/reader to be a newsie, what about for intentions different than "because I had to"/"I felt different"/ or the like? Maybe your oc is a journalist undercover as a newsie to get the latest details? Or, working under Pulitzer to spy on the newsies during their strike (Could lead to many different kinds of conflict, imo)
Maybe some of my examples could be leaning dangerously on the edge of historical inaccuracy, but, truthfully, I honestly don't care much? Might be a bad thing to say, but, so long as it isn't ENTIRELY inaccurate, I, personally, am not too nitpicky about any details!
This is not to say "Stop making your ocs newsies!", but, if you're writing with the idea to diversify or bring something new to the table, deviating from the common stuff is pretty cool. But if you're not, that's cool too, so long as it's not hurting anyone or everyone's having fun :-)

hi!
i haven’t done this in a LOOOONG time. i used to write on here under the url imaginesxyou when i was like 13, but i miss writing and shipping and general tumblr shitposting so bad. i figured i’d do a little introduction to let you guys get to know me, and i’ve put my fandom list here too so you guys know what stuff i might write for!!
so i’m jackie. i’m 20 years old and based in the uk. i’m queer and genderfluid (any pronouns) so i’m happy to write any lgbtq+ requests you guys have. i’m an apprentice travel agent at the moment, and a lot of my time is eaten up by work. however i’ll try and pop on here and answer some of your requests when i can!! my hobbies generally include writing, watching tv and movies, and singing! i sing at my local open mic night and i really love it. i listen to all kinds of music, but i perform strictly 60’s music at the moment. i’m hoping to branch out into 70s and 80s stuff too when i have time. i’m also autistic and my hyperfixations can change quite often, so i’ll likely close some fandoms on my list depending on what i’m fixated on at the time. I’ll also probably add stuff on too as time goes on!
i’ll be writing little drabbles and self inserts (i’m a sucker for all that y/n shit), but also ships! this was a big thing that i did back in the day and the people seemed to love it. you guys probably don’t need it but here’s a quick rundown on how to request!
SELF INSERTS:
just pop a fandom and character into my ask box and a description of what sort of thing you’re looking for - it can be as long or as short of a description as you want! i’ll do my best with the given material. there are some things i probably won’t write but i can’t think enough to have a list of those here. if your ask includes something i’m not comfortable writing i’ll just reply and let you know.
SHIPS:
similar process - pop a fandom and a description of yourself into the ask box, and once again it can be as brief or as detailed as you see fit. try to include stuff like looks, personality, interests, gender and sexual preference, etc.
as it currently stands, here’s my fandom list that you can request from! requests will be open for all fandoms to kickstart the blog a little. it’s split into movies, tv shows, and music!
TV SHOWS:
high school musical: the musical: the series (current hyperfixation)
grease: rise of the pink ladies
community
sex education
stranger things
ted lasso
mech x4
kickin it
heartstopper
julie and the phantoms
my babysitter’s a vampire
MOVIES:
disney’s zombies
harry potter (but not in a way that supports jk rowling obvs)
ferris bueller’s day off
young guns 2 (specifically the sequel)
sky high
the mighty ducks
newsies
dead poets society
undrafted
lord of the rings
top gun
everybody wants some!!
star trek (2009-2016)
the breakfast club
narnia
x-men
bottoms
metal lords
star wars (probably just the movies at the moment, i’m a little behind on the shows)
disney’s descendants
MUSIC:
the monkees
the hollies
the beatles
the byrds
wham
nct dream (the only kpop group on here - sorry!)
backstreet boys
the doors
tokio hotel
the jimi hendrix experience
pink floyd
don broco
queen
and that’s my introduction done!! requests are officially open! thank you guys so much, this is gonna be so much fun.
for the first time, this is jackie signing off!

Katherine plumber is harvey fierstien’s badly written self insert oc. A writer profiting off taking advantage of the newsies story without understanding a single bit of what was at risk or what they stood for. Yes, he made creepy comments about the fellows playing Jack at the broadway premier that hold true to this theory no matter how I wish we could deny it.
honestly just snaps for this one.

🤝 Which Character Are You Most Like?
😬 Which Character Are You Least Like?
😈 Any Unpopular Opinions?
@roideny
everything in me wants to say davey…. so i’ll say davey lmao. i had a hard time separating fanon from canon for this but i really relate to him a lot? the kid with the “”burden”” of taking care of the family, the one who is expected to have all of the answers, a good leader, good at keeping people on task, family-oriented despite it all, and very very gay. <3
(i would add fanon things that i relate to for davey but i….. exclusively write fanon things for davey……. let’s be real davey is a self insert at this point)
the character i’m least like is probably race!! no hate against him, i love him to bits, but i don’t really relate to him in canon. he’s funny, extroverted and knows how to rally a crowd, and although we relate in general ways i just don’t see myself in him tbh
unpopular opinions…… lmfao i still don’t understand the beef between livesies and 92sies. get a grip and let people like what they like!! i also think that ship discourse (which i see a lot less of now, thank christ) is stupid as shit and unnecessary. rapid fire: davey isn’t a mom friend, jack isn’t stupid, writing a heavy newsies accent in fic (HEAVY heavy) isn’t the slay people think it is, ignoring the classism in the show is stupid, katherine needed to be fleshed out better but she’s still a good character, and race exists more than to be the “funny annoying friend”/spot’s boyfriend. ✨💕

tanner i am humbly asking you to talk to me about tour ocs 🙏🙏
I love my little gang of fucked up little guys so much and I’ve been trying to unravel the actual lore behind them and their connections to jack more recently because there is a lot SO under this prompting I’m gonna list a few (of like, 15-) and humbly ask for questions because otherwise idk where to start
they form a gang of newsies/thieves/conmen/fists for hire depending on what’s needed and are constantly at odds with the manhattan newsies, most notably ones being:
kingfisher, the boss. he has a past with jack that left a lot of tension and he’s an expert conman/manipulative genius
jackdaw, second in command. he helps keep the peace and balance our kingfisher
jester, the unofficial third. he floats between the lodgings and the gang and is desperate to escape but kingfisher has him under his thumb
smudge, spitefire and magpie, the littles. they stick to each other like glue and no one fully knows where they came from
fox, the technical runaway. he spent time with them when he was younger but left in favour of the delancey’s
the rest don’t have set roles but do have their one little stories: soap (my self insert), skillet, screws, stitches, barrel, blackout, anchor and splinter (the brothers), bullet and sparky
ask me about literally anyone I’m happy to ramble and unravel these little fucks

Could you please answer
💥find your least kudos'd fic - say something wonderful about it.
🍭why did you start writing?
and/or
💫what is your favorite kind of comment/feedback?
from the real fic writer asks?
my least kudos on any fic ever is Something About Julia which is a Bandstand fic! I have to say I just reread it and I do think it's very sweet. I like the characterization I gave Michael and I think it's a fun little fluff piece!
why did i start writing? uh. i was fourteen years old and in love with spot conlon <3 my first fic ever was a self insert oc newsies fic lmaoooo. i deleted it like a year later bc I was already embarrassed so you couldn't find it if you tried but now you know lol. i kept writing because I love it, idk. I'm about to graduate college with a creative writing degree so I guess I just fell in love with it
my favorite kind of comment/feedback is getting a specific moment that somebody liked and/or a prediction for what something means in a muti-chapter fic! i love getting details even if it's like a copy paste of a line with "lol" after it I like knowing exactly what got a reacting out of somebody
