Sometimes I wish Shakespeare had been a little more sympathetic to Anne/Richard just to see how he would have written the crazy account of how they actually got married.

GOD THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN SO FUNNY

I really do wish we could have had more of the Yorks being Backstabby Little Shits re: each other. I know we got Henry VI, Part 3 but there was way more of it in history than the play lets on.

Ah well. I still think the concept of a play featuring "Anne goes and lives with her sister and then is either hidden by her brother in law or runs away to prevent him from hiding her to keep her lands meanwhile Richard is pulling the strings with his Favoritest Brother In The World™ who also happens to be the King Of Goddamn England" would be funny

❝as he tackled what was by now open conflict in the north between the neville & percy clans - favouring, naturally, his neville partners in goverment - york kept his 2 eldest sons in ludlow up to date with news. in easter week, edward & edmund wrote thanking him for his latest dispatch. amid demands for some `fine bonnets` to go with the green growns their father had sent them, and complaints about bullying by a pair of older boys being brought up in their household, they offered their heartfelt hopes and pravail `against the malice of your evilwillers`.❜

general opinion: fall in a hole and die | don’t like them | eh | they’re fine I guess | like them! | love them | actual love of my life hotness level: get away from me | meh | neutral | theoretically hot but not my type | pretty hot | gorgeous! | 10/10 would banghogwarts house: gryffindor | slytherin | ravenclaw | hufflepuffbest quality: He is a very good leader, confident and charming and able to win people to his cause easily just with his persona. He’s also very brave, and has a decent sense of What’s Right most of the time.worst quality: That’s he’s kinda stupid and horny and lets his stupidity and horniness get in the way of doing things that would actually probably help his cause. He also seems to have the Plantagenet “I Can’t Die Actually” mentality. ship them with: Lizziebrotp them with: His actual brothers pretty much?needs to stay away from: I mean staying away from Warwick would be smart but you knowmisc. thoughts: He’s really tall and I have no doubts he could pick any of his brothers up like a potato sack and just fling them if he so chose.

And also a lot of accusations of treasonship them with: Isabelbrotp them with: NOT WARWICK THAT’S FOR SUREneeds to stay away from: Richardmisc. thoughts: While I’m tempted to say ‘he deserved better’ he really kinda didn’t. But I still feel bad for him anyway.

By like. A LOT. Basically he sees what he wants and he goes for it and puts in effort. The trouble is the things he wants are usually Pure Evil so there’s thatworst quality: Uhhh child murder for oneship them with: Buckinghambrotp them with: Buckingham as well. Also his brothers because I do love the Yorksquad dynamic even if it starts to suck around Play 4.needs to stay away from: Virtually everyone including himself. He is just bad for society.misc. thoughts: He is a trash baby stink man belongs-in-the-garbage but hell if I don’t love him anyway

Possibly the only Good Kid of the Yorks. The beloved baby of the family. Murdered tragically and for no reason :( Well okay there was a reason but it wasn’t a very good reasonworst quality: He dedship them with: Nobrotp them with: His bros!needs to stay away from: CLIFFORD FOR FUCK’S SAKEmisc. thoughts: I appreciate how he was meant to like be a foil to Edward of Westminster and also possibly the Princes in the Tower. Iconic symbolism there, Will.

Edward IV: George, please be a good brother and bear with me through this whole ‘marriage to Lizzie and turning our allies against us’ thing? I promise I’ll make it up to you, just PLEASE don’t defect to Warwick

George:

I like to think that York went grey early to his dumb sons.

York, bald by 30: This is all your fault

Edward, George, Richard and Edmund:

the height comparison between king edward 4, george of clarence, & king richard 3 (sorry edmund of rutland)

Note: I only know Edward’s height since he is England’s tallest monarch (being 6′4). But we can guess that Richard could’ve been around 5′3 due to his severe scoliosis. I used George’s actor from the white queen’s height which is 6′0. I’m tagging @malvoliowithin & @ghost-minuet cause they might like it. 

So, these might not correct. (Edward’s is though TBH) 

Here are the charts: 

George (Left) [About 6′0], Edward (Right) [6′4]

Richard (Left) [About 5′3], Edward (Right) [6′4]
