ROUND ONE: POLL #10
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ROUND ONE POLLS [HERE]
PROPAGANDA BELOW
Lancelot du Lac/Galehaut:
tl:dr The Arthurian Romance that was erased.
The forth corner in the most famous Arthurian love triangle; Galehaut was a powerful and successful warlord and an enemy of Camelot and Arthur. He was beating the pants off them so badly that he gave Arthur a whole year to get ready because he didn't want an easy win. Until the "Black Knight" showed up fighting for Arthur. Galehaut was so enamored with this enemy knight that he literally made peace with King Arthur instead of continuing to curb stomp him in order to have a single night with said knight. Arthur agrees and Galehaut gets his one night with Lancelot.
This one night together turns into a lifelong bond. Galehaut and Lancelot become pretty much inseparable, to the point that they live together in Lancelot's Castle, Joyous Gard. They have many adventures together and while it is said that it's Galehaut that introduced Lancelot and Guinevere, it's also Galehaut that remains firmly loyal to Lancelot despite that. He's the one who gives them both shelter during the whole False Guinivere debacle.
[SPOILERS]
When Galehaut believes Lancelot to be slain, he literally dies of grief for the loss of Lancelot. He is buried at Joyous Gard. When Lancelot dies much later, he is buried RIGHT NEXT TO GALEHAUT in the tomb he constructed years ago for the both of them to be together in eternity.
[End spoilers]
Galehaut and Lancelot takes the "enemies to lovers", "one night of bliss turned more" and "they were roommates" to chilvaric romance levels.
Orestes/Pylades:
Yes they're the ones behind the "I'll take care of you. // It's rotten work. // Not to me. Not if it's you" quote (translation from Euripides)
Yes they're also cousins, it's Greek Mythology not real life 21st century

ROUND ONE: POLL #7
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ROUND ONE POLLS [HERE]
PROPAGANDA BELOW
Michel de Montaigne/Étienne de La Boétie:
As far as I'm aware, we only know for sure that they were very good friends and that Montaigne mourned his friend deeply. Men were more open about their feelings of friendship back then, which today we tend to read as homoerotism. What we do have is Montaigne's works on their friendship ! I quote : 'If I am pressed to say why I loved him, I feel it can only be explained by replying: 'Because it was he; because it was me.'
Alexander the Great/Hephaestion:
NO PROPAGANDA SUBMITTED

ROUND ONE: POLL #6
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ROUND ONE POLLS [HERE]
PROPAGANDA BELOW
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe/Friedrich Schiller:
So. they are THE German writers. Think Shakespeare level of relevance. And they are so very sus.
They were very close friends in life, and while they are both associated with and occasionally worked in the same city, they actually spent most of their time separated, so there are many very longing letters to each other which Goethe even published.
Schiller died first, so naturally Goethe had his skull placed on his desk on a very fancy ornamented cushion and wrote poetry about it. He also decreed that he wanted them to be buried together and they kind of are (it's complicated).
On a more fandom level, they sort of have every trope the gender neutral girls go crazy for. Imagine a slightly older, well-off and established poet (Goethe) who strikes an unlikely friendship with the young scrappy newcomer (Schiller) that somehow stands the test of time and also their massive egos which got kinda worse when they were together and lasts even beyond death. Beautiful <3
This isn't very relevant to the ship but that very famous statue of both of them side by side made my friend have a lil crush on Schiller he's weirdly hot in this one
They were two German authors and their collaboration coined an entire literary time period. Sie hatten ihre Hochzeit in Weimar
Paul Verlaine/Arthur Rimbaud:
Pushing toxicity to another level

ROUND ONE: POLL #5
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ROUND ONE POLLS [HERE]
PROPAGANDA BELOW
Apollo/Hyacinthus:
It's a great tragic romance story that's usually not quite as widely known as a lot of the more popularized stories in Greek mythology
Hyacinthus was a beautiful Spartan youth, beloved by the god Apollo. As the good Spartan he was, Hyacinthus loved athletics, and one day the two decided to practice throwing the discus. Apollo went first, sending the disc flying up to “scatter the clouds” as Ovid says. Hyacinthus ran laughing after it, thinking to catch the disc, but instead it hit him in the head, killing him. Ovid has a beautiful passage about Apollo holding the dying youth, desperately trying to use his skill with medicine to keep him alive. But even the mighty god of healing could not save the one he loved. In honor of his lover, Apollo makes a flower spring up from Hyacinthus’ blood.
Duke Ling/Mizi Xia:
One of the most famous accounts of same-sex couples from ancient China is the story of the relationship between Duke Ling of the State of Wei (r. 534-493 BCE) and the courtier Mizi Xia. The Duke was married and had a son but preferred the company of his male lover. Mizi Xia once borrowed the duke’s carriage without asking permission to go visit his sick mother and, instead of receiving the harsh punishment that anyone else would have been met with, was praised by the duke for his filial piety. Another time, when they were out for a walk, Mizi Xia offered the duke half of a peach he was eating, and the duke was touched, saying, "How great is your love for me. You forget your own appetite and think only of giving me good things to eat!" The phrase "love of the half-eaten peach" became the byword for same-sex relationships afterwards.

ROUND ONE: POLL #2

ROUND ONE POLLS [HERE]
PROPAGANDA BELOW
Cyrano de Bergerac/D'Artagnan:
Two legendary duelists from Gascony (a South France's region) ? Sign me in
Emperor Ai of Han/Dong Xian:
Anybody who's into danmei is probably familiar with the term "cutsleeve." This is in reference to an alleged story from Chinese history where an emperor, rather than disturb his sleeping lover by pulling away his sleeve, chose to cut off his sleeve to allow him to rest.
Well guess what. These are the guys who originated the term. IT'S THEM. @ all danmei fans out there, please vote for Emperor Ai/Dong Xian. They're icons (to me).
