Love, betrayal, incest, adultery, idealism, chivalry, sorcerers, knights, Christians, Pagans… it’s all right here. From the very beginning of its creation all the way to a modern feminist retelling, I’ve tried to collect an extensive history of the Arthurian legend. This is in no way a full account but it’s a good start.

Blake Ritson said in an interview “It’s best if you grow your own,” talking about Riario’s hair and beard, and I can’t stop thinking about that looking at the dead thing on Tom Riley’s head in that 5th gif....

Canon: and so they never met
Fanfic: here’s a funny story
Canon: There was tension and pining, but they never even kissed.

Girolamo Riario - episode 2x05 @kana-go
I’ve been listening to Terry Pratchett audiobooks, and here is what my Havelock Vetinari looks like...
hi i miss charlie boisseau
A contre amour is first alphabetically on my iTunes, so it comes on a lot. Lucky me!
(I had to delete À boire—from NdP—because it was legit disturbing when it just blasted on!)
The illustrious and most glorious @idriseleven requested Riario for the character ask meme, and I guess I have to do it. Just for her. As if I wouldn’t gladly babble on about him for hours… ;D
favorite thing about them: his eyes, his face, his back, his shoulders, his hands. lol But I really love how he keeps his emotions and reactions under such tight rein while he’s quiet and deferential and just ruthlessly efficient until they eventually erupt like a volcano and all that passion (okay, sometimes murderous rage) bursts forth. I, uh, really like that.
least favorite thing about them: I want to steal chocksawaychaps answer and say that he didn’t get a happy ending. More specifically, I hate that the writers undid all the good and creative character development they’d spent most of 3 seasons on. Oh, also that he does have a teensy bit of a stabby, slicey murdering problem in season 1.
favorite line: “Your theoretical generosity is touching” and “That wasn’t in the Bible” but my all-time favorite is that breathy raspy “Artistaaa~” yum
brOTP: Nico for sure, I love that Riario was training him how to be a proper bastard
OTP: um, basically anyone but Lorenzo? I adored him with Zita (that whole plot point still makes me rage). I really love him with Leo because hnnn the chemistry is too hot. I’ve grown through fanfic to really like him with Zo and Leo together in a big ol’ happy threesome. I loved him with Laura and thought he might actually get a happy ending (NOT THAT WAY… ok maybe that way too) even if it was a typical US-show het ending. I love to write him with all these pairings.
nOTP: Lorenzo gag no please or the pope *hurk*
random headcanon: I like to headcanon Blake Ritson’s headcanon that he mentioned in the pre-S3 press that Riario would have been a traveling musician if the whole assassin-for-the-pope thing hadn’t worked out. I love the thought of Riario secretly really enjoying music and perhaps being musical himself that could come out in opportune moments, like serenading the one he loves, writing and playing songs for them, crooning in that unforgettable voice while he looks deeply into their eyes *swoons*
unpopular opinion: I don’t know what the fandom opinions are at the moment? But I still firmly believe Riario shouldn’t have gone back to Lorenzo to make amends unless there was a bigger, over-arching reason that didn’t involve the Architect et al. It still seems so out of character and was pretty obviously just a move for the writers to work the whole secret society-brainwashing thing back in. ALSO: I really, really don’t believe that Riario was a virgin when he and Zita made love on the ship. Boy had too many smooth moves to be a first-time fumbling virgin. ;D
song i associate with them: Love the Way You Lie is my all-time Leo/Riario song along with this version of Tainted Love (I never wrote actual songfic until I did based on Love the Way You Lie because it is SO angst-filled Leo/Riario post-relationship or mid-relationship as the world burns around them, maybe someday I’ll post it)
favorite picture of them: again chocksawaychaps used one of my favorites but it deserves to be seen again (oh look it’s Swordy too!)
Then there’s this classic moment
But he was at his most gorgeous in the CSI: Rome episode in season 3 when he got himself all cleaned and glammed up for Leo (and his eyeliner was on point, teach me your secrets, please!)
What a lovely way to start a new year—with this Dark Eyed Beardy Boy on my dash!! Excellent photo selection, wonderful answers, and I accept as canon that Italian doctors during the Quattrocento had a recognized diagnosis for “teensy bit of a stabbing, slicey murdering problem.”
I somehow missed the alternate timeline of Riario as a wandering musician. Now I’m thinking about that crew again as well. Could there be more DvD fanfic in 2019? Never say never!
Thank you for this my wonderful Zephfair!!
