To be or not to be that's the question

Hamlet from Hamlet

it’s kinda sad how kin tags shrink with the fandoms, there’s been no new content in anything Shakespeare-related in years so all of the theater tags are very dead... I’ve been theater kin for literal years and I remember when people actually made calls/content. now it’s impressive if there’s a new post every 2/3 months.

I'm sorry, Ophelia, for my cruelty. I wish my anger had not blinded me to the fact that you did still care. You deserved a kinder life than being caught between your family and myself and torn to pieces. I'm sorry that you're only ever discussed and remembered as a tragic victim, now. I wish they could have heard the way you would laugh when we were young together.

I'm sorry Laertes, for my role in destroying your family. Thank you for exchanging forgiveness with me, at the end, it brings me some peace even now. You were the kind of man I wished I could have been.

And I'm sorry Horatio, but in a different sense than I'm sorry to the others. I don't regret insisting that you live, that you tell others what had transpired. I'm immensely grateful that you listened to me, in fact. But I'm sorry for the pain you must have felt - not only the grief, but the maddening circumstance of being the last and only person who cared. You inherited that isolating burden I had carried, I placed it squarely on your shoulders. But while I'm sorry for the pain, I still do feel as though trusting you with the weight of my tale was the right decision. Thank you, for everything.

- Hamlet (obviously)

canon clothes:

My motif was the colour purple so currently I have 5-6 pieces of clothing that I always wear on the weekend (i wear my school uniform on weekdays). It's not the same clothes I used to have ofc but it feels nice to wear the colour that I literally wore daily

LGBT ASK GAME LETS GOOOOO

I was genderfaunet (like genderfaun, but includes feminine genders, however is never fully female), pansexual and homoromantic, as well as somewhere on the aromantic spectrum. I was in a queerplatonic relationship with Benvolio, but we did do things that traditional romantic or sexual relationships would.

He has very comfy hugs 10/10 he's also really pretty and I wish I proposed even though we were both only around 20
