Dinadan was so angry that Lancelot was so angry at King Mark so he composed a song about how shitty King Mark was. Dinadan then taught it to a harper who taught the song to everyone else.

When you realize that Tristan, Iseult, Dinadan, Palamedes, and Mark are basically the stock cast of a sitcom…

[gawrkin]

If you know where to look, a lot of characters in Arthuriana can be, are or implied to be sorcerers/Magic-users.

To put it another way, had Sir Dinadan been written by the Welsh or the Irish, King Mark would probably be dead a hundred times over from the force of Dinadan's songs.

I don't often post my own ⚠️FAKE⚠️ mark egos, but here ya go!

Ironplier

Ironplier is a very cautious and paranoid ego, having spent a year in the Iron Lung. He lives off of scrap food and sometimes even the blood that's leaked into the submarine. Desperate times call for Desperate measures. Living in the sub has really taken a strong mental toll on him, as he tries to piece together what's left of his sanity.

Kingiplier

Kingiplier is a very egotistical and self centered ego, and self proclaimed "king of fnaf". Nobody really likes him because of his snarky attitude, rude words, and overall character. He thinks he's better than everyone else.

The Hostage by Edmund Blair Leighton

It has been suggested this depicts Isolde the Fair in her father's castle in Ireland awaiting Tristram, who had been instructed to take her to Cornwall to marry King Mark

[oneshoulderangel]

The choices for dealing with heartbreak in arthurian legend is to become an insane naked wild man…or to die.

(Also, Gaheris I thought you were married…why are you being a homewrecker in Cornwall?)

la tavola ritonda liveblogging(ish) 4/4

whenever Mordred is casually referred to in the text as Arthur's son, I start wondering whether it is because it's assumed that the audience knows or because the characters (as in everyone, not just his parents) also know

the Lady of the Lake has just kidnapped Tristan, Lancelot, Isolde, and Guinevere and faked their deaths... to let them spend some time together? What is happening

Arthur addressing Isolde as "my daughter" :')

interestingly, here it is Pelles's wife who arranges that Lancelot has sex with her daughter to conceive Galahad, not her daughter herself and/or her nurse

"Know that Palamidesso was a good knight: bold, gentle, courteous [...] one of the four boldest knights of the Tavola Ritonda."

Lancelot has a daughter? Apparently??? She appears briefly to fetch Tristan to save Lancelot and other knights from prison and then disappears from the narrative again. No name for her is given

the recluse that Perceval visits here is his sister instead of his aunt

Perceval's sister (not the hermit, the one that goes on the quest) has a name here for a change - Agrestizia

I'm pretty sure the other versions of the Grail Quest mention that the lady who had leprosy needed the maidens' blood to wash herself with it or something? Because here she needs to drink it

Brangaine dying of sorrow... oh no :(

Hector just yeeted Tristan's shield into a pool, because he wanted to be a bitch, I guess

"O courteous Palamidesso, today our feud is over. O bold Lancilotto, today we are no longer companions." 💔

Mark's end is some scary shit

weird as fuck for Gawain to be the one to uncover Lancelot's affair with Guinevere. In general, he's like part-time Agravaine here (Agravaine is also here but he barely does anything)

when Mordred took the throne, people were loyal to him due to his "great joyfulness and courtesy"

"Don't do me such courtesy," said Lancilotto [to Gawain], "for I am going to treat you just like I did your brothers." oh my god

Mordred kills Arthur but survives, and is then killed by Lancelot

look, this is the Gareth Survives AU. Only Agravaine and Gaheris are mentioned to be killed by Lancelot when he's found with Guinevere. Of course, then it is also mentioned that "almost all of the knights errant" died in the battle with Mordred, but it is not said that Gareth specifically died. Ergo, I can pretend he didn't.

[art-blogge]

with @dakukabi , the theme was apparently “kill” and “die” (excluding limbitch maint side) and “how fast can i badly draw my own sona” (very)

king mark didnt deserve any of these.

[joemerl]

I feel like she lost the right to that title when she abandoned the king to go boink his nephew.

Little sketch comic of the Cornwall gang coming up with some codenames.

Isolde decided that if they’re going to hide the affair and make sure the two hottest people in Cornwall aren’t executed, they need to get organized.

I saw a video of MatPat regenerating into his next host like Dr who

It got me thinking, imagine his last video...

"But hey..." Zoom out, A single tear is shed, "That's just a theory, a..."
