“WE AS THE SKY AND THE EARTH” IS FINALLY HERE

A short prologue before we get straight into how gay Alfred and Drummond are and how much I can rewrite British history

[lostlibraryofalex]

Moodboard for my upcoming, seriously canon-divergent Drumfred fic “We as the Sky and the Earth (Wow I Can’t Believe I’m Rewriting Early Conservative Party History Just So I Can Get a Tory Civil Servant and a Liberal MP to Fuck)”

(If anyone can guess where the bottom middle image/eighth grid comes from, you’ll have my infinite love)

[Image description: 

A monochrome 9x9 moodboard

Second grid - a mid-to-late Victorian era image of a man sitting on another man’s lap, cropped so that their faces can’t be seen

Third grid - Alfred and Drummond kissing on a pale grey background 

Fourth grid - the front door of 10 Downing Street

Fifth grid - “are so enchanting” written in white italic all caps on a pale grey background 

Sixth grid - “every revolution starts and ends with his lips” written in white serif script on a dark grey background 

Seventh grid - Alfred and Drummond sitting in separate chairs opposite each other on a pale grey background 

Eighth grid - two men kissing, one of them holding onto the other’s hair

“And Lord Melbourne, my dearest.” Albert traces fingertips over her neck, just over the place that makes her shiver. “I do not wish to be a cruel husband. I don’t want to force you to only love me.” Albert’s hands cup Victoria’s face when he notices her glistening eyes, tears collecting under her eyes. “I know how much you love Lord Melbourne and I don’t want to take that away from you. Victoria, Liebchen, you are so full of love. What right do I have to take that away from you?”

Vicbertbourne polyamory! Pls read and give feedback 😘

He drops the sword; it clatters noisily to the floor.

He takes Victoria’s hands; they are warm and soft to hold.

He hears the collective gasp of the crowd; shock reverberating through the room.

And Victoria, she gives him that special smile.

It's an ethereal desire so to speak, that pulls Queen Victoria and Lord Melbourne together; a basic and primal want stemmed from atoms demanding to return to each other.
