I want to write an alternative version of Romeo and Juliet where instead of being a little ponce and trying to work things out for himself, Romeo asks his smarter friends what to do about the whole thing and Benvolio and Mercutio come up with the world’s greatest plan:

Marriage of convenience between Juliet and Mercutio.

Think about it.

Juliet’s parents want her to marry into the Prince’s family. Mercutio is a good compromise between no marriage and Paris.

Mercutio probably won’t get his inheritance if he keeps being HELLA FUCKING GAY ALL OVER THE PLACE so a beard is only a benefit to him.

They would probably get along great rolling their eyes at how adorably stupid Romeo is.

Romeo and Benvolio could get a “bachelor pad” right next to Juliet and Mercutio’s house. Every night, Romeo and Mercutio high five as they hop the fence to go bang their one true love.

The second half of the play is just all of them trying to keep up the charade and being “THIS CLOSE” to getting caught all the time. But everything ends nicely because true love conquers all.

Everybody wins. Nobody dies.

THE SHAKESPERE AU I NEVER KNEW I NEEDED

DUDE DID YOU JUST FIX ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC PLAYS EVER CREATED?!

ONCE AGAIN EVERYTHING IS SOLVED BY THE QUEER LENS.

Alright, I am writing this all out again because I thought I answered it last night but tumblr decided to send it to the void instead of to my blog.

@wicked-felina ask and I shall deliver. If I talked about all my faves I would be writing about over 100 songs, so I’m just going to write about a few that I have specific characters or circumstances in mind.

(I Don’t Know Why) But I Do – I imagine a dimly lit yet cozy room in New York in the earlier 1960’s. Louis and Armand are slowly dancing to the radio, holding each other in their arms. This song comes on, neither admitting to the other just how much it encapsulates their feelings, but they look into each other’s eyes and they know.

When We Were Gods – Since the first time I heard this song I have gotten Lestat/Akasha vibes. While it’s not something I ship, I do find their relationship fascinating. They both display an almost naive infatuation with the other, causing them to love and excuse the very behaviours they condemn and slaughter others for. And the regret and the horror, as well as the remaining love which Lestat ponders at the beginning of TotBT is heartbreaking.

Rainbow in the Dark – This one is actually a bit of an in-joke for myself. Have you ever been to one of those shows where they adapt an existing work but add in hits from the ‘70’s or ‘80’s? The actors are all over dramatic and the songs only vaguely relate to the subject matter, but the audience as well as the actors are all having an absolutely wonderful time. That is my ideal adaptation of TVL. I feel as though it would really capture the spirit of the young Lestat. This song would be sung by Armand when he explains their ways to Lestat. “You’ve been left on your own, like a rainbow in the dark!”

Moving In Stereo – This is the perfect hunting song, particularly for Louis. Slow, methodic, yet almost mindlessly driven, creating a trance like state, the beat like the ebb and flow of the tide or the beating of a heart.

Korobushka – This is one of my all time favourite songs. A slow beginning gives rise to a feverish melody of strings. If you consider Prince Lestat canon imagine a ballroom full of vampires all dancing in perfect sync, twisting and twirling to the precisely organized chaos.

That’s all I’ll write about for now at least, since (like the playlist) this became far longer than I intended.

JUST BECAUSE I WANT EVERYONE TO ENJOY THIS FULLY –  I’m linking the playlist again to save confusion. =D  HERE! 

Rainbow in the Dark is such an excellent VC vibe gotdamn haha. =D

Aaaand with a little more tweaking we have our finished product in full form! 🙂 

Edit: Aaand I just noticed how weird the fire looks. Dang it. 

DOUBLE EDIT: Omg this keeps getting notes as much as I appreciate it ( I really do you guys are awesome <3) I really felt like I needed to replace it with the edited version where the fire doesn’t look so lame and stuff. I actually edited this forever ago and then…forgot about it :/ If anyone really wants the old version back up, I’ll do that in a separate post. 

TRIPLE EDIT: I fixed the lighting once again and I feel like redrawing it but not right now. Thank you all so much for all the notes ❤

I’ve seen a lot of curious people wanting to dive into classical music but don’t know where to start, so I have written out a list of pieces to listen to depending on mood. I’ve only put out a few, but please add more if you want to. hope this helps y’all out. 🙂

stereotypical delightful classical music:

if you need to chill:

if you need to sleep:

if you need to wake up:

if you are feeling very proud:

if you feel really excited:

if you are angry and you want to take a baseball bat and start hitting a bush:

if you want to cry for a really long time:

if you want to feel like you’re on an adventure:

if you want chills:

if you want to study:

if you really want to dance:

if you want to start bouncing in your chair:

if you’re about to pass out and you need energy:

if you want to hear suspense within music:

if you want a jazzy/classical feel:

if you want to feel emotional with no explanation:

if you want to sit back and have a nice cup of tea:

pieces that don’t really have a valid explanation:

pieces that just sound really cool:

if you feel like listening to concertos all day (I do not recommend doing that):

and if you really just hate classical music in general:

a lot of these pieces apply in multiple categories, but I sorted them by which I think they match the most. have fun exploring classical music!

also, thank you to viola-ology, iwillsavemyworld, shayshay526, eternal-cadenza, tropicalmunchakoopas, shadowraven45662, and thelonecomposer for adding on! if you would like to add on your own suggestions, please reblog and add on or message me so I can give you credit for the suggestion!

I love this!

The Sean from Carnival of the Animals by Saint Saens is also great falling asleep music.
