[@kayleeshook1593]

My favorite thing is that despite the fact that Lin wrote and is in one of the most popular musicals at the moment, he is still such a big broadway fanboy like all of us.

[@weirdstream9572]

@Unknown "Like you could grab a beer with him"

[@deborahtragasz1218]

Fun fact: there's actually a really cool connection to Hamilton and Les Mis. The real-life Lafayette was actually at the funeral of General Lamarque in Les Mis, so it's like 100% percent possible that he would have bumped into the barricade boys.

[@magiv4205]

i want a fanfic of that right now

[@chantelvanderveen9786]

I've been off Tumblr for a year or so, but I lurk every once in a while. I was chantellovesbooks, or something like that. I was into LBD, AoJE, Shipwrecked, etc. I loved your contributions to the fandoms, because they're always so enthusiastic but at the same time well-reasoned. So happy you've fallen into the Ham fandom too! (Btw, were you on Republic of Pemberley back in the day? I feel like there was a John on those forums, and that he was also interesting and with a sense of humour very similar to yours. RoP was where I got my fannish start as a JA-loving teen.)

[@JohnCallender]

I remember reading and enjoying things on Republic of Pemberley, but if I contributed there it would have been only a small amount (since I don't remember it). So that's probably some other John. But thank you very much for the kind comments!

This man defines humility. He has written a musical that will no doubt become the 'Les Mis' of the 21st century, and received countless awards and salutations for his genius. Yet here his obvious and almost child-like delight at having the opportunity to be part of a Les Mis production, perhaps something he, like millions of others aspire to, is a joy to witness. 'For reasons surpassing understanding...' A simply wonderful turn of phrase.
