i am usnavi and you prob'ly never heard my name
reports of my fame are greatly exaggerated
exacerbated by the fact that my syntax
is highly complicated 'cause i immigrated
from the single greatest little place in the caribbean
dominican republic, i love it!
jesus, i'm jealous of it, and beyond that
ever since my folks passed on, i haven't gone back
goddamn, i gotta get on that!
the title is self explanatory. this is a list of the characters i'll write for. it'll probably change over time, and if you see a character you'd like but don't see them on the list, just ask cause i might've forgotten about them

Never gonna forgive how they kept certain songs out of the actual movie. Tbf the ones they kept in are bangers anyways and I thoroughly enjoyed the movie when I saw it, but songs like 'Enough' and 'Sunrise'???? 'EVERYTHING I KNOW'???? It was an absolute CRIME to keep these bangers out >:C
Of course I know timing is a huge factor of it (thats the only reasonable explanation I can think of) because including every single song would make the movie a little too long perhaps,, but Im still gonna have a grudge that they kept 'Everything I know' out. Perhaps they wanted the story to focus more of Usnavi and Vanessa's relationship more than Nina and Benny's(excuse me if Im getting characters mixed up) relationship because,,, maybe it would make the movie a bit more complicated to focus on both Nina's family and her life and Usnavi and Vanessa's whole story? Im not sure.
Im just making guesses at this point. However, on the contrary to my complaints, I will say that the movie was an awesome introduction to In The Heights for me. Maybe that was what the movie was aiming for; people who have just discovered the movie to get into the musical and just a nice little movie for those who were already In The Heights fans.
I dunno, I haven't done much research yet into the actual reason, these just make sense in my head. Feel free to correct me in anything btw for those who know more than I do, I just wanted to make a silly ramble post.
Overall though, In The Heights is so so cool and Nina supremacy.
thinking of a Descendants/In the Heights crossover (it’s a musical by LMM about a bunch of people in Washington Heights)… Uma is Benny, Harry is Nina. Uhh…Evie is Usnavi and Doug is Vanessa. Dizzy is Sonny (Usnavi’s cousin) and Zevon is Graffiti Pete, Sonny’s friend (bc I ain’t putting the bird as my fav and also so they can be platonic)…Harriet is Kevin (Nina’s dad, but it’s changed to sister from dad). Chad and Ben are Carla and Daniela respectively.
i have no clue who any of the in the heights characters are (never even listened to the soundtrack) so i have no opinion on this soooooo 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Random question: what are your top 5 ships in general and why?
Oh god that is a very huge question anon. I am afraid that I will most likely miss some so I will trust my mind and assume that if I didn't think of them immediately then they probably shouldn't be considered part of my favourite ships???
Anyways, after trying to meddle with my brain for way too long, here they are in no particular order:
Percy and Annabeth from PJO and HoO: I kid you not, they are the blueprint. I know I said there is no order for this list but they're the best ship. There's no discussion no arguments just. them. Also they follow this trend I just realized of most of / all my favourite ships being comprised of a dork and a really cool girlie. Once again; the blueprint. Absolutely unmatched.
Junpei and Chidori from Persona 3: This one breaks my heart in a million pieces but for me they are in the same wavelength as Orpheus and Eurydice (I could've cheated and include them in this list as Hadestown characters but it didn't feel right). Tragic partners, but an incredible love story for the ages and oh my good I am getting too many feelings just thinking about them. Definitely my favourite Persona ship (my second favourite is Naoto x Kanji my gender kings (gn) ). Also they're literally el gracioso y la del eyeliner which is very macarrones con tomatico of them (i don't know if you're spanish or not anon so I'm sorry if you didn't understand this last sentence it is a very stupid one tbh).
Usnavi and Vanessa from In The Heights: Them!!!!! Exactly!!! They're probably my favourite ship dynamic (once again dork + cool girl) but amped to a thousand through musical antics and oh god I love them too much. It's the mutual pining and the miscomunication and the summer crush feeling and AAAAA. They're everything to me honestly. Probably the ship I have the most feelings about right now.
Chidi and Eleanor from The Good Place: They are literally soulmates!!!!! Against all odds they are soulmates!!! Not because it was destiny but because they found each other!!!! I am going to implode !!!!
Kieu My and Fatou from Druck: The skamverse has so many good ships that make me shiver in excitement (my second favorite is probably the original Yousana and in third place I would say it's a tie between Crisana and Spiderwitz) but literally nothing compares to the incredible experience that is Kieutou. That museum date clip still lives in my head rent free and cured my mental illness several times already. They're simply the best and nothing will ever top them. Also once again, the dork + cool girl combo repeats itself.
so how can i say that while i was away
i had so much to hide?
hey guys, it’s me
the biggest disappointment you know
the kid couldn’t hack it
she’s back and she’s walkin’ real slow
welcome home, just breathe
