"How does a bastard, orphan, son of a youkai and a human, dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot...
No one asks about it, but I wanted to explain the connections between Hamilton and Inuyasha that inspired me to start my fic (which I hope to get back to updating soon)
Hamilton: Arrogant, immigrant, orphan, bastard, son of a whore and a Scottsman
Inuyasha: Arrogant, orphan, bastard, half-human/half-demon, shunned by society
Both are real go-getters, brash, impulsive, reckless, NON-STOP.
—-
Hamilton’s mother gets sick and dies when he’s 10.
Inuyasha’s mother also dies when he’s very young.
Both are left to pretty much raise themselves and learn on their own.
——-
Sesshomaru and Burr are not alike personality wise, except both are really cautious. Burr’s quotes seem like words Sesshomaru lives by: “Wait for it.” “Talk less, smile more. Don’t let them know what you’re against or what you’re for.” “Fools who run the mouths off wind up date.”
—–
Hamilton and Burr end up as frenemies and rivals. A love-hate….or hate-hate..relationship. Same as Inu and Sessh.

Washington saw potential in Hamilton and tried to treat him like a son. Hamilton had great respect for Washington, but didn’t quite get along with him. IRL, there were rumors that Hamilton was Washington’s son. In the play, Hamilton has SERIOUS “daddy” issues… His father left them he was 10 and never really cared for him.
For my AU, with Inu not ever having really known his actual dad in the series, the relationship dynamic seems strikingly similar. TBH, I read a fanfic where Washington and Hamilton came to the realization that Hamilton was his son, which inspired me to pursue this AU.

ELIZA AND KAGOME: PRECIOUS CINNAMON BUNS TOO SWEET, TOO KIND, TOO GOOD, TOO PURE FOR THIS WORLD. Both fall in love with an arrogant orphan that they’re WAY too good for.
——–
Said arrogant-orphan eventually cheats on them. Hate to go by the stereotypical trope, but at least series wise, Hamilton’s affair with Maria reminds me of Inuyasha’s meetings with Kikyo, naturally.
———-
Angelica and Sango are both strong, opinionated, independent women who will fight for what’s right. They’ll also protect Eliza/Kagome with their lives!

AND RIN!
AND PEGGY!
