My newest big thing is Nevermore, I have already posted about it this month

So let's look at most recent (and less big) things.
Last week I read Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida. It's neither my fave Shakespeare play nor my fave Trojan war play, but the potential for m/m shipping is off the charts.

Look at this exchange between Aeneas and Diomedes (the last two lines in particular drive me mad)

What I love about Snowflake is I come across so many things I've never seen before, like this exchange.

I can see why it grabbed your attention!

Oh my gosh. I just know those last two lines are going to gnaw at my brain until I finally write a fic based around that concept. I really need to read Shakespeare plays more often; it's amazing how many beautiful moments and ideas are in them.

Oh yes, those two lines definitely hint something is going on between these two! Maybe a bit of a love/hate relationship. Well spotted 😊

Ah, Shakespeare knew we'd be writing fanfiction in the future, he was a wise old chap 😂

It just dawned on me, that I saw Troilus and Cressida when I was very young, it starred Alan Rickman as Achilles! Brilliant production. But I was so obsessed with Achilles and Patroclus canoodling that I didn't notice Aeneas and Diomedes🤦‍♀️

Yes, a young Alan Rickman! Just imagine! I seem to remember Achilles and Patroclus were quite sweet together.

Patroclus (Hilton McRae), Troilus (Anton Lesser), Cressida (Juliet Stevenson), Helen of Troy (Lindsay Duncan)
