First of all I don't own the characters. They're all Jonathan Larson's work of genius, brought to you in part by the actors who played those characters in the movie.

As I was reading over the fic, I realized there were a few atrocious nuances with my timing, so in doing that, this fic has undergone a slight overhaul, with a new scene in Chapter 1. If you've read it before, you may want to read it again.
