The fact that they’re recommended by A$, yeah, that’s a red flag.

The fact that they do IQ tests, meh, not really. It’s pretty standard in France. Reasons to use it include:

- giftedness can sometimes mimic autism, so it’s a part of the differential diagnosis. (Of course, it’s absolutely possible to be both autistic and gifted.)

- it measures things like speech processing speed and stuff, and that can point to possible ADD.

I took an IQ test when I was a kid and the psychiatrist who diagnosed my ASD and ADD was very interested by the results, apparently my results were “typical of autistic people and indicating severe ADD”.

From the second chapter of White Woods.

The resulting hiss of pain from Ren absolutely thrilled him and he gave another sharp tug and said, “The vile little device seems to have exaggerated one key feature Ren.”

*cracks knuckles* Here we go.

1) Favorite overall song? My Shot 

2) Song you (gasp) skip sometimes? Dear Theodosia

3) Favorite Schuyler song? Satisfied4) Favorite Burr song? Your Obedient Servant (I love the lilt of “Dear Alexander, I am slow to anger...”) Though I also really like Wait For It.5) Under appreciated song? I feel like all of King George’s songs are under appreciated. Which I get, they aren’t really the focus of the show, and serve as nice pacing shifts. But Jonathan Groff, I’ve been a fan of his for a long while. 6) Character who’s songs you listen to more than others? Eh I tend to listen straight through. There was a good month there where I just listened to it on loop.7) First song to make you cry? Burn gets me sniffly.8) Song that made you cry the most? Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story. EVERY TIME.9) Song that you listen to on repeat all the time? My Shot10) Most motivating song? Guns and Ships, Lafayette’s verse kicks ass. 11) Favorite lyric (11+song)? 

For sheer word play:

Now I’m the model of a modern major generalThe venerated Virginian veteran whose men are allLining up, to put me up on a pedestalWritin’ letters to relativesEmbellishin’ my elegance and eloquenceBut the elephant is in the roomThe truth is in ya face when ya hear the British cannons go…

For it’s resonance:

Let me tell you what I wish I’d known 

When I was young and dreamed of glory:

You have no control: Who lives, who dies, who tells your story 

For the gut punch emotional reaction:

And when my time is up, have I done enough? Will they tell our story?

12) Song you relate to the most? Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story (My sister died in 2014. She was very young, she would have loved this musical. And I wish more than anything that she had been given more time. Also why it kicks me in the teeth every time.)

13) Lyric that took you a long time to figure out what they were saying? I know for a fact that there were a few lines that I heard wrong because I distinctly remember hearing them correctly for the first time, but without sitting here and just listening to the whole thing all the way through I couldn’t tell you off the top of my head what they were.14) Song that unsettled you the most? Say No To This15) Song you forget most? I Know Him I also think it’s the weakest of the King George songs.16) Song you (try to) sing the most? My Shot and Satisfied 17) First song you heard? Alexander Hamilton 18) Favorite King George song? You’ll Be Back19) Favorite Act I song? My Shot20) Favorite Act II song? Cabinet Battle #121) Favorite recurring musical theme? Names. Specifically the cadence to names. 

22) Story of Tonight or Story of Tonight (reprise)? Story of Tonight.

29: if you were a clone how would you distinguish yourself from the others? - Tattoos. Way more tattoos than I currently have.
