benvolio montague is Francis Forever coded. send post

i made this meme because of something kaz said the other day on facetime

enjoy

been thinking about mercutios brother valentine and how hes probably the same valentine as in two gents of verona

and i realized that means mercutio and speed have met and like oh my god can you imagine the wordplay itd be insane

some lady said the shakespeare one looks like a minalima edition and i cant argue with that

that feeling when you bring eight tragedies along to a family friend's destination wedding trip.

i got my girlypop greatest tragedies o shakespeare and my theban plays

i regret nothing.

adding onto the fact that i am insane

Elisabeth from Elisabeth das Musical is La Mort from Romeo et Juliette

reasoning?

In Wie Du, Elisabeth is talking to her father about how she wants to go and explore the world and have all sorta of adventures, and going to Verona seems like enough of an adventure to me.

in Elisabeth's sort of postmortem scene, we see her in a white dress, thin and long. La Mort's dress almost looks like it if it was that dress, torn into pieces.

And if Elisabeth is Death's lover/wife/SO post musical, that probably means she absorbs some of his power to be able to kiss people into death, hand them weapons, reveal herself at will.

Specifically, la Mort's muteness and only being a dancer- she will only dance in death's sight (wenn ich tanzen will), so whenever any Veronese peeps see their deaths coming, she reveals herself (or in moments of intense suffering for Comment Lui Dire). Specific to Comment though, Mort is taking Benvolio's suffering and physically moving and stringing him up by it, which totally recalls die Schatten Werden Langer blocking with Rudolf and Tod to me.

Elisabeth's hair is also totally long and fabulous enough for all those hairdos. Her choreo also often obscures her and her face, which is a bit of a callback to Elisabeth always hiding her face with a fan, but that might be a stretch.

it's literally been over a year of retj-ing. i watched this musical last year on march 2nd.

what am i doing with my life

u ever look at smth you made and ur like damnnn wtf i’m so talented actually

that feeling when children make fanart of you as the tin man

i feel it's important to share that

these were made by first graders

this is my actual costume:

thabk you :)

i dont know why but it makes me laugh so much that in the 1968 movie, while romeo is yapping about how adorable he finds juliet, benvolio is just yapping with some guy in the background. he's just there. while romeo is spewing this iconic poetry.

have some benvolio/mercutio being wolfstar variants: (and some james as romeo)
