Oskar Kokoschka - Les Garçons qui rêvent, entre 1907 et 1908.
I have always been partial to stories which feature the removal of many layers of clothing as an important plot element. One of my favorite Scandinavian folktales is about a queen who, through some magical conception mishap, gives birth to twins. The younger twin is beautiful and normal in every way, but the older twin is just. Y’know. A big horrible snake with arms.
When the younger twin grows up and wants to get married, the lindworm returns and insists that he, as the elder prince, must be married first. When a massive horrible snake with arms lays down the law like that there isn’t really any room for disagreement, but it turns out to be awfully hard to find a bride willing to marry him. The king and queen search far and wide for a woman who will take a husband who is 50 feet long, doesn’t have legs, and may or may not eat his would-be wives when they are appalled by him, but eventually they find a local shepherd’s daughter who is either coerced, a monsterfucker, or just very open-minded and agrees to marry the lindworm.
Depending on the version, the bride either seeks out the advice of a witch or comes up with the idea all by herself, and goes to the bedchamber on her wedding night dressed in many layers of dresses. Her big horrible snake with arms husband is waiting for her and bids her to disrobe, but she asks him to shed a skin as well. Her sexy Russian nesting doll cosplay has so many layers that by the time she is naked, he has shed all of his skins and is 1.) either a sexy naked human dude underneath or 2.) is this meaty blob of helpless worm meat that must be whipped and bathed in chemicals before he transforms into a sexy naked human dude. Either way, they presumably live happily ever after and the younger prince can finally get married.
I’d like to know how the elder prince adjusted to having a human body. He was born a lindworm and lived his entire life slithering around—he’s never worn pants! He’s never had to sit on a toilet! What’s he gonna do now that he’s a sexy 20-something heir to the throne? Is it a shock for him when he looks down and he’s just got one sexual organ? His butt is in the back now, he’s got to shave, he’s got to eat with a fork and a knife and chew his food instead of unhinging his jaw and swallowing it whole.... is it weird for him? Is his honeymoon spent learning to walk on two legs? Is his instinct to crawl out of bed and drag himself across the floor by his arms? Does he roll onto his back and play dead when he gets scared? Does he wrap his torso around his lunch and attempt to constrict it? Is his wife... into this?
There’s no way to predict where this post is going from just the beginning
I`m not gonna explain myself

a bunch of raw lines from into the woods because this musical makes me go bonkers
“no more curses you cant undo left by fathers you never knew”
“princes wait there in the world, it’s true. princes, yes, but wolves and humans too”
“and though scary is exciting, nice is different than good”
“where we to go? where are we ever to go?”
“people make mistakes, holding to their own, thinking they’re alone. honor their mistakes, fight for their mistakes, everybody makes one another’s terrible mistakes”
“stay with, the world is dark and wild. stay a child while you can be a child”
“do you know what you wish? are you certain what you wish is what you want?”
“now you know what’s out there in the world, no one can prepare for the world, even i. how could i, who loved you as you were?”
“the trouble is son, the farther you run, the more you feel undefined”
“careful the wish you make, wishes are children. careful the path they take, wishes come true, not free”
“isn’t it nice to know a lot? and a little bit not”
“when you know when you can’t have what you want, what’s the profit in wishing?”
“careful the tale you tell, that is the spell. children will listen”
“witches can be right, giants can be good. you decide what’s right, you decide what’s good”
“children can only grow from something you love, to something you lose”
“into the woods, you have to grope, but that’s the way you learn to cope. into the woods to find there’s hope of getting through the journey”
