with the way high school positions you to think that you need to decide on the rest of your life as a seventeen year old i think troy bolton was well within his right to be flinging himself across walls and visualising hundreds of basketballs falling from the sky to attack him and shit

(to the tune of valjean’s soliloquy) what have i done / sweet jesus what have i done / become a pink pony girl / and now i dance at the club

[thelordofblades]

(to the tune of pink pony club) g-d what have you done / become a thief in the night / and a dog on the run oh mama

Just rediscovered potentially the funniest thing I’ve written in recent memory

[calamitys-child]

Imagine if people wrote all their Les Mis modern aus in the style of Victor Hugo

[calamitys-child]

An excerpt

[brattaire]

Les Mis where everything is the same but in every scene Javert's hat gets bigger

[mickysmansion]

"I'm gay" "I'm straight" ok????? I am reaching, but I fall??? And the stars are black and cold???As I stare into the void??? Of a world that cannot hold??? I'll escape now from that world??? From the world of Jean Valjean??? There is nowhere I can turn??? There is no way to go on????😒😒😒

some proposals for places i would put an f-bomb in newsies if i could only have one:

"What, you mean like a strike?"/"Well, you heard Davey, we're on strike!"/"Fuck"

"I'll learn to make do with the mansion, the oil well, the diamonds, the yacht... with Andy, Eduardo the pontiff and Scott... and Frank... oh, and my fucking bank."

"Oh, c'mon, Katherine! Those boys are counting on you!... Oh, you poor fucking boys."

"And we found our voice!"/"And I lost my fucking shoe!"

"Write it in ink or in blood it's the same either way/They're gonna fucking pay"

literally any of jack's lines in watch what happens (reprise)

"...or cross the Brooklyn Bridge... hell, you can't even get out of your own fucking office."

"He's a fucking sellout!"

"I trust you know my daughter, Katherine."/"What the fuck?"

"My father has eyes on every corner of this fucking city! He doesn't need me spying for him."

"If you weren't going to Santa Fe..."/"Yeah, and if you weren't a fucking heiress."

"NEWSIES! WE FUCKING WON!"

[this-is-macy]

I'd like to add to this:

"A girl? It's a girl! What the fuck? Is that even legal?"

"Our dad tangled with a delivery truck on the job. Fucked up his leg bad, so they laid him off."

"When there's dirt on your shoes, boys, for fuck's sake, relax!"

"'Cept for Sunday when you fuck around all day"

"Far from the fucking headlines and the deadlines in between"

And my personal favorite:

"Once that train makes— Fuck this place."

[this-is-ali]

"Yes he did. And then he fucking died."

"If's fucking boring. Folks wanna know, is the trolley comin' or am I walkin'?"

"Teddy Roosevelt is no socialist. He's a fucking hero."

"Take it easy. It's a buncha fucking trees."

"This would be a good time to shut the fuck up!"

"They was fucking coronas!"

I can’t get over this edit lmaooooo

[fearnelesbian]

we don't talk enough about "I hope someday, someone wants to hold you for twenty minutes straight. They don't pull away, they don't look at your face, and they don't try to kiss you. All they do is wrap you up in their arms and hold on tight without an ounce of selfishness in it. I hope you become addicted, baby. I hope you become addicted to saying things and having them matter to someone."
