I can't believe it's almost over. 35 years of legacy, of all of the amazing talents filling the Majestic, bringing this show to life 8 times a week.
This is the production that first introduced me to the show and will always have the warmest place in my heart ❤️ I'm so thankful I got to take 3 trips to the Majestic, while being a (rather) young person from the other side of the world.

Ship Ask Game
2, 3, 5, 11, 14, 22, 27, 31, 39, 44, 48
I picked totally at random, lol. Feel free to seek vengeance 😂
Okay, so my buddy said it was dealer's choice on the ship, so I'm giving you information on two of my kids, Austin and Christine. Enjoy!
[][]
2) Who wakes up early/ Who sleeps late?
neither of them are early risers, but Christine whines about it less if she has to wake up early. Of the two of them, Austin will sleep as late as humanly possible.
3) What was their first impression of each other?
Christine thought he was the stereotypical preppy Lacrosse boy, but she liked how kind he was to everyone because not many jocks at their school were.
Austin saw her looks before anything. She was the most beautiful girl he'd seen up until that point. But then, he got to know her and saw her spunk and sass and kindness and fell even harder for her.
5) Do they argue often? If so, what do they argue about?
Of course they argue! What relationship doesn't? But their arguments are not full-blown shouting matches, they're more hissed conversations and dirty looks. They vowed to never yell at each other if they can manage it (it happens, but rarely). And they usually argue over communication breakdowns. It's their biggest hurdle as a couple: communication.
11) How do they feel about nicknames/pet names? If they like them, what pet names do they use? If they hate them, why do they feel that way?
Both are very neutral on nicknames and pet names.
Christine calls him 'princey'. She also uses 'baby/babe' a fair amount and 'love/my love'.
Austin calls her 'Chris' or 'babe/baby'
14) Do they enjoy PDA or are they more private with affection?
They use PDA to an extent. They would full-blown make out in front of everyone, but a kiss or holdings hands is fine. Some things are better left for the privacy of home.
22) Are they comfortable joking around with each other and being silly/playful?
Joking, being sarcastic and playing around with each other is the foundation of their relationship! They play off each other so well and commit to the bit at all times. It's actually how they come back together is though remembering how good to felt to play together again and laugh.
27) How do they say 'I love you' non-verbally?
the blue heart emoji, a hand on the other's side, touching noses after they kiss, squeezing hands.
31) Do they often go out on dates? What are they like?
when they first started dating in high school, they went out nearly every weekend. Usually, it's to dinner or the movies or mini golf. Simple things. In college, they're long distance so their in-person dates are few and far between so they have to make those big. Wine and dine and love, everything. But they do do virtual dates a lot at that time. Lots of video chats and LONG phone conversations. When they get back together they go back to going out as many weekends as possible. Sometimes smaller dates like drinks or a movie, and sometimes they go all out. They make it a priority to devote time to each other.
39) When and how did they admit they loved each other?
The first time? Austin was the first to say it. He was so shy and scared to, but once he did, he knew she reciprocated it. They were, ironically, at the park on the swings. It wasn't some big grand thing, just him admitting his feelings and saying it.
The second time was trickier because they had been broken up and just reconnected. But Christine knew this guy was the one for her. And she hated that it took her that long to fully realize it and not be scared and waiting for the other shoe to drop. She was at work and this feeling washed over her of not wanting to lose him again. So she called him right then and there and said it.
44) Do they cuddle often? Why or why not?
Christine LOVE to cuddle. It's her favorite way to be with him. She could spend hours tangled together playing with his hair or rubbing his arms. She loves that physical touch. Austin, not so much. He enjoys it to an extent. There's a limit. He can only tolerate it for so long then he needs a break.
48) Do they talk about their future together? Why or why not?
Not really. They realized after a while that the universe was in control of their path together and there was no stopping it. So they just gave in and let it take control. Though they do dream of spending the rest of their days together, even when they are both old and gray and grouchy.

All I wanted was to be loved for myself.
If I am a phantom, it is because mans hatred has made me so. If I am to be saved it is because your love redeems me.
“Are people so unhappy when they love?"
"Yes, Christine, when they love and are not sure of being loved.”
He laid at my feet his immense, tragic love.
He had a heart that could have held the empire of the world; and, in the end, he had to content himself with a cellar.
-Gaston Leroux, The Phantom of the Opera
