《Someone Under Stress Meets Someone Looking Pretty (Lin-Manuel Miranda X Reader)》Notes
Advertisement
"Lin?" You say. He raises his head and looks at you, dazed. You bend down and grab his hand, "Are you okay?" Lin opens his mouth, but no words come. You place a hand on his forehead. "You're burning up!" You exclaim. Lin closes his eyes, in obvious pain.
Without even thinking, you are pulling Lin to his feet. The man is quite light for his stature, but you still struggle to keep him upright, once he's standing. He sways drastically as he walks, and says nothing.
Back at your apartment, you lay Lin onto your sofa. You give him some ibuprofen and cough medicine and in minutes, he is sleeping peacefully... for now.
You do not sleep at all that night. Lin wakes up every hour with a coughing fit, still seemingly unaware and unconcerned with his surroundings, but in a lot of pain. You have many questions.
Does he have the flu? Pneumonia? How did he contract this? And most pressing of all, why was he sleeping behind a dumpster?
When morning comes, you wake Lin, eager for answers to you questions. Despite grogginess from the cough syrup, he seems more alert than before. He looks at you through wide, hollow eyes set in a hunger-pang frame. He opens his mouth to say something, but nothing comes out. He bites his lip and groans in frustration.
Suddenly, you realize what has happened. Lin has lost his voice. You dig into your Jeans pocket and pull out your cell phone, open it to the "Notes" app, and hand it to Lin.
He looks up at you confused for a moment before he feverishly begins typing. When he hands the phone back, it reads:
WHATS GOING ON?
"I could ask the same myself, Lin. What's going on with you? What were you doing behind the dumpster?" You say, handing the phone back to him.

He types a response and hands the phone back:
I don't remember... but where have you been????
Lin looks up at you painfully, not just a physical pain, but something deeper. You sigh and sit next to him on the sofa, he adjusts to make room for you. You open your mouth, but the words don't come. Lin pulls your phone form your grasp, types, and then hands it back:
I'm sorry I kissed you, it was way out of line.
Your face burns and you feel sick. "No!" You say, "It's not about that, its... This is what I do. I let people get close to me and I hurt them and I care too much about you to let myself hurt you." You hand the phone to Lin and he types:
I was so worried about you, when you didn't show up. But then I saw you on campus once and I realized you just didn't want to see me...
Your breath catches in your throat: "No! It's not like that at all! I love... being around you. Too much to let myself hurt you."
You hand the phone back to Lin but he lets it fall gently onto the sofa cushion. Tears appearing in the corners of his sunken eyes, he reaches for your hand. You shiver, startled by his touch, but it feels so right. You wrap your arms around him and burry your face into his chest, breathing in his heat.
You can feel his teardrops trailing down the back of your neck, and hear his muffled, wheezing sobs.

Checkpoint
as an anomaly sweeps the world, many gain strange abilities. as for Mal, the power makes it so they cannot die, or more accurately, they get sent back in time to the last place they were safe at. A power that seems like a blessing until you’re crushed under rubble, drowned in sewage, shot, stabbed, all while having the royalties to feel all the pain from such fates. And to put the icing on the cake, a strange message appeared before everyone’s eyes stating that unless someone breaks down the gate within 17 years, everyone will die”. now Mal needs to find a way to “break down the gate” (whatever the hell that means) or they will be forced to die and revive, only to die again for the rest of time. Which would suck, probably. /————————————————— this is technically a time loop novel. the MC is chaotic neutral with a worryingly lack of care about how their actions affect people. i want to interact with my readers so give critique and suggestions. I will sometimes host polls for the personality for new characters, story decisions, and the ability to cancel annoying characters, besides Mal, if they get enough complaints. I am also impatient and will end decision polls when I want to write more. If no one votes, I choose, so don’t let that happen. if you’re want world building check out hitchhikers guide to checkpoint (an encyclopedia of what I made up with lots more explanation)
