O.M.G. Deej this is amazing XD
All of the Hamilton lines!!! Ahhhh!!!! I'm proud Of was able to pick them out, especially cause I've never listened to the soundtrack in full yet (most of it... Just not all of it).
Ohhhhh Koohii is so lucky to have something like this, I haven't seen her review but I'm sure there's flailing involved.
I loved it!!! Once again some crazy points a gun at Shawn, and Gus lost to McNab XD
Ohhhhh it's Fantastic.
Author's Response: Aw yaaaaay!! I'm so glad you liked it!! (And yes, there was much flailing involved! lol) I had a lot of fun writing it; so glad you did, too!
And yep, poor Shawn with the guns... and Gus losing the role was my plan from the start but him losing it to Buzz was a random idea I had that made me laugh so much I HAD to add it in there. lol I'm so happy you appreciated that bit. :D
Thanks for taking the time to read and review!!

I was already dying at the first line! XDD
Shawn unbuckled his seatbelt, deposited his half-empty container of fruit in the cupholder, and threw open the door. “Meet me inside!”
Ahh, I see what you did thereeeee X3
The young officer—Abigail Nolan, Gus remembered—
YOU USED MY NAME
YOU USED MY FLIPPIN' FAKE NAME OMG I LOVE YOU!! Gus tried to hit on meeee *fangirl squeals*
“Lassie, don’t be the Adams administration.” Shawn made a face. “I want to be in the room where it happens.”
Shawn stuck out his lower lip and glanced over at Juliet. “Come on, Jules. You can’t say no to this!”
Girl you KNOW I'm singing so much right now XDD I'm trying so hard not to point out every tiny reference I find but I can't help it! X3
“They were doing callbacks for that big new show. Alexander Ham Sandwich or whatever."
Bahahahaha! XDD Of COURSE Shawn would get it so drastically wrong!
“But remember what happened with the Jamaican Inspector Man Debacle of 2013?” Shawn reminded Gus.
Thumbing his nose, Gus sniffed. “I am not throwing away my shot, Shawn.
I CAN'T XD I know that if I pick up each and every one it'll be the longest review EVER but I can't help it XDD You didn't even stop at just the titles, girl you've got some full LINES in here!
“Maybe we can just take a break and talk about this?”
That didn’t seem to help the man calm down at all. If anything, it made him seethe even more.
Ha! I bet he's angry because he recognizes the titles even if Shawn doesn't =D
YOU MADE BUZZ THE HERO!!! *hops around happily* And he's King George!! Ohhh this could not be more perfect~! Oh, I WISH Buzz had gotten to sing for the musical! Awww =D Also, this line:
“Then what do you call what you’ve been doing since you heard about the play coming to town?” Shawn shot back. “Rabid fanboying?”
*dies* XDDD
This was amazing and I love it and I love you *hugs* Thanks for the amazing gift, Deej! =D
Author's Response: AAAAAAHHHHHHHH *FLAILS* All of your reactions made me very, very happy! I honestly wanted to use all of the lines, but that wasn't really conducive to writing a short story so I had to narrow it down a bit. lol But I did use all the song titles, so I'm proud of myself for that, and I love all of the quotes I was able to use. :D Shawn using them all as "don't be" lines was one of my favorite things. And "Alexander Ham Sandwich" - I was also proud of that. :P
Also though? I have the headcanon that Shawn actually knows the entire soundtrack by heart from listening to it once (eidetic memory, anyone?) and could have gone out for Hamilton and smashed it. But I think he likes misquoting it on purpose to bug Gus - and the bad guy, of course. lol (Also, Buzz beating out Gus for the role is my favorite thing ever and I'm so happy you appreciated it too!) *huuuuugs* Happy birthday, Koohii!! Love you!
