Shakespearean Khaleesi

Poetry and pretty things. No rhyme or reason. Be prepared for a lot of flowers.

So I did a cosplay of Wen Kexing inspired by the art of @mtkay13 because their version of him goes hard.

(Also, book WKX doesn’t use a fan, but I had to throw a tiny nod to Gong Jun’s portrayal in there.)

Hugh Jackman has never been as sexy as he is while reading to sheep and carrying one with PTSD out of a carnival

the most unrealistic part of the iliad & odyssey is actually every single time they talk about a hecatomb of cattle like its nothing. 100 cows? in this collapsing late bronze age economy? Where Are You Getting These. Who’s Your Cow Dealer. Can I Have Their Address

After seeing a reel comparing the behavior of different dogs running at you, my boyfriend and I concluded that while Lestat might be an Afghan Hound, Louis a tired Australian Shepherd, and Claudia perhaps an Australian Cattle Dog, Armand … is a cat.

I need Sam Reid to narrate an audiobook edition of The Vampire Lestat. He'd be so down to do it, please AMC

Dracula sequel concept:

none of that “Dracula actually survived” nonsense. in fact all monster hunting shenanigans is in the background only.

instead it’s about someone who is seeking to court Quincey Harker and has to deal with him and his family being Like That.

just. imagine. gothic romcom.

Reading “Northanger Abbey” like: Catherine Morland has the pennies and the Thorpes are the dreadfuls, my god.

NEW TYK FANCOMIC WOOHOO HELLO!

An adaptation of the second half of chapter 65 of TYK, in other words, THE "Are you sincere" scene! (yes, again).

🎉 43 pages! 🎉

Link to the full comic > https://www.pixiv.net/artworks/116988959

Or just click HERE

And of course, some preview pages and more below!

First half of the comic for your enjoyment! I intend on making another post detailing the process and some of my thoughts and reflections on it.

I'm very happy with how it came together, and am extremely thankful to all the people who supported me throughout the process of making it. SableFan, Hanya, Moose, Bichen, E, Siv, Ailsa, Li, Azur, and all the MGZ people, y'all are rockstars!!

This is my first TYK chapter adaptation in a long time, and I've been meaning to make it for a very long time but was unable to do so for personal reasons. Being able to finally put it out is extremely meaningful to me, so this "little" comic is, in more ways than one, very precious to me.

I hope you can enjoy my interpretation of what would be one of the most famous scenes of TYK.

More musings about that scene here.

I had to.

‼️‼️SPOILERS FOR LISA FRANKENSTEIN AND POOR THINGS‼️‼️

It is so hilarious that Lisa Frankenstein and poor things came out at the same time bc on one hand we have

- movie thats really focused on advertising itself as feminist

- uses the moms body as basically an incubator and completely robs her of her singular act of agency right after roe v wade got overturned

- proceeds to sexualize said mothers body while also sexualizing her child’s immaturity plus gratuitous sex scenes showing how she’s “exploited”

- absolutely refuses to show the “female version of Frankenstein” with any scars or body hair she would absolutely be imperfect and wounded like it’s giving let me go shave my hairless legs

- written and directed by a man

- kinda weird and neurodivergent/mentally ill coded and is mean to the characters about it

And that’s the one winnning all the laurels while the movie with

- a female writer and director

- 1 sex scene which is very consensual and shows literally nothing

- multiple female characters all of which display agency and have wildly different personalities

- the characters are allowed to have trauma and be fucked up but also the first person killed is a lady calling the main character insane (bad) and threatening to lock her up because she doesn’t like her

- accurately shows SA without being gratuitous

- male lead doesn’t have any lines except reading poetry to the girl at the end, other than that there’s like three guys who talk

- real pretty visuals

- hilarious

- the male lead lacks a voice and very specific anatomy but it’s still emphasized how he’s still very much a man

- kills the guys who commits SA

- her sister stealing her crush doesn’t ruin their relationship, she’s still emphatic to her

- SO MUCH set design detail and it looks SO PRETTY

-camp

And THATS the one flying under the radar?!? My guy Lisa Frankenstein is what poor things wishes it was

[shakespeareankhaleesi]

Thank you for getting it, OP.
