Wait, really? So, what, some kid (I'm assuming the Evan Hansen from the title) goes and does a crime, either using drugs and eventually commits suicide, or a kid commits suicide because of someone else doing the crime?

The suicide comes first and 'causes' thy Evan Hansen to commit crimes, but close. Evan is such a douche though, not gonna lie.

Ehhhhh close? Funny thing is, I was thinking about more songs for Cal earlier and then I found this gold! Cal gives off such Jared vibes to me and sometimes he's an Evan (like for the 'But not because we're gay' and Waving through a Window. Especially the forest bit-)

Evan was such a douche!! But I still sympathize because god dammit if his songs make me cry!! T^T

I relate to Jared on a spiritual level. He is my spirit animal.

I emerge from the depths of YouTube to bring you the song that is constantly in the back of Aries' head. https://youtu.be/8sAKC90Ol1k

XD That song is indeed oddly fitting somehow. But for the life of me, I can't fathom why.

I headcannon Areis as secretly being both an unrealized anarchist and also his brain is the human embodiment of a Twitch chat. Which, well, the song is about a Twitch streamer's RP character who 'hears voices' which is just the chat.

Oh my god if Aries doesn't go on an anarchist arch with Cal I will be severely disappointed-

I'mma be real wi'tch y'all. Consider; the whole gang, as they go around dealing with the actual plot, accidentally start an anarchist revolution. The government's somehow involved in the main plot, or they expose some major moral no-nos, whatever. And the group doesn't notice at first, when they do something to expose the government and people start getting pissed about it, because they've got more important things to worry about. But the cult that started up at the beginning of the journey notices, and starts growing exponentially, and one of their tennants becomes being super against corruption/tyranny/etc. So the cult goes around incentivizing the people until riots break out everywhere. The group gets mega confused, because why the hell is the country suddenly exploding? They have barely any idea what's going on because the last time Evie logged into Twitter was like four months ago, so they get real confused when some rando off the streets sees them and acts like they're all celebrities while shouting stuff like 'viva la revolution'. So they eventually cave and use a public computer to try to figure out what they hell is happening, and find out that while they've been crawling through sewers or lurking in air vents or whatever, they've become the figureheads for a massive nation-spanning anarchist revolution.
