Princess Sailor Moon might be my favorite form <3 <3 <3
XDD extremely accurate!!
I somehow missed how much of an absolute creep Cloten was, so Iachimo gets more points now in hindsight XDDD
I finished the play, and it was a RIDE! Another one I really want to see on stage
Okay wow I apparently missed a lot, lol. Listening while working isn't a perfect way to absorb Shakespeare XD
I got a little lost with all the death and war and who was talking and about whom at any given time, so I'm reading a summary to try to pick up what I missed. They're called Iacomo/Giacomo "one of the play's most entertaining characters?? Not to my ear XD
Wait he fucking KILLED him? ._.
Woah.
"Not Hercules could have knocked out his brains, for he had none", holy shit XDDDD
This play is EXTREMELY funny
You might regret that -- I have a lot of plays to get through! XD
Okay @walkingshadowshakespeare.com I was going to leave you alone but I have no one else to share this with that will get it. CLOTEN IS SO FUNNY
OMG IT'S LITERALLY SNOW WHITE WHAT IS HAPPENING
And is she going to rescue her brothers??? I'm hype
The dialogue is really fun, too. "His meanest garment" had me cackling!
Started Cymbeline today and I'm definitely intrigued! It feels almost like a proto-Othello, but with Snow White's evil stepmother thrown in for fun! XDDDD
#severance
And he looked back
I thought it was #protesttoomuchpod I was remembering the name from! Oh, excited to discover it :D
Cymbeline is next in this collection, will be starting that one tomorrow or Friday. I know absolutely nothing about and I'm excited!
It just ENDS there??? Omg, I feel so betrayed, Aufidius whyyyy DX
That was thrilling tho, and now I want desperately to see this performed.
I'm on the last scene and I am N E R V O U S. Everyone's so happy but Aufidius is being weird ._.
I have nothing to say about this, it's just there on the page in Shakespeare's words XD
This man seriously just said his heart is pounding harder than when he first married his wife, and he's dreamed about Coriolanius every night since they last met?? Okay I was like half kidding before but the shipping material is just THERE
I'm sorry, "Let me twine mine arms about that body"???? Was I actually right????
O snap, Mom's about to THROW HANDS
He got banished, and literally the only thing I can think that could happen is that he's going to go take shelter with Aufidius and they're going to fall in love, that's all I've got XDDD
Reading (listening to) Coriolanus for the first time, and have no idea where the story is going, except maybe some enemies-to-lovers shipping???
@walkingshadowshakespeare.com don't tell me if I'm wrong ;D
2025 in a nutshell
(...) I'm like halfway through All's Well, and I am Big Mad. Bertram is an absolute fuckboi and I hate him, but I am also thrilled that even now I can have New Feelings About Shakespeare <3
@walkingshadowshakespeare.com
Inspired by the return of #protesttoomuchpod, I've started listening to Shakespeare read-throughs again, some familiar and some totally new to me. (...)
I was thrilled to see this pop up in my podcatcher this morning! Listening to it now!
I hadn't realized how much I missed having Shakespeare in my life!
