breaking my silence on chess the musical to say that i would literally not give a fuck about this show if i thought it was good or fully successful at what it is saying. SORRY! i love how messy she is. i love how since 1984 and continuing to this very day people with entirely different perceptions of and opinions on the musical have attempted in their own ways to "make it good" by creating all these different versions with like notably different plots, characterization, and song order, and i love how fucking bad the vast majority of these are despite it all. i hope people keep trying to fix chess the musical forever and until the end of time. i hope no one ever figures it out. i want every currently living theatre director in existence to make their own version and for all these versions to come out on broadway at the same time, making that year's musical season entirely comprised of various different versions of the cold war chess musical by tim rice and half of abba. i want not only our greatest minds but also our middlest-of-the-road and worst minds to come up with their own conclusions as to why chess does not entirely work in its original form or any subsequent forms like to really think about it and yes i do want someone to dedicate their entire life to perfecting chess by releasing version after version after version until they die peacefully but still, as always, in the grips of obsession. i want marriages to be broken up. i want mental states to be shattered. i dream of this world

#it speaks!#ive said this on another platform but i dont like using that platform none of my friends are there. so you all get the expanded version.#pearl's chess rant: deluxe edition. and im not even finished.#i want at least one intrepid director to do what ppl do with shakespeare and set it in a completely different era ->#<- & change the central political conflict but not enough so its still like. well now this is about medieval feudalism why is it also ->#<- still about a chess proxy war ... that just makes no sense. it just doesnt make sense ........#'breaking my silence on chess the musical' sam knows i think about it still. but for the purposes of public appearance. you understand.#chessposting #chess the musical #<- real ones know i rarely maintag but i want all seven active chess fans to see this bc i need their insights

i'm so normal abt this old man

#^ the panel from earlier I said I'd color #sorry was just going to color this normally but that last chapter had way too much religious #imagery for me to be at all normal. so medieval painting vibes it is adkjdsjdj #thoughts #my art #les mis #jean valjean #anyways.#i DO imagine him w a beard but at the same time I feel like he wouldn't be comfortable enough as madeleine to have one yk? so I gave him #the beginnings of a beard in his sideburns instead. he'll get there

I'm arguing with some catholic girl on tiktok (yes i know, first mistake) and she just told me that "going to church on sundays" is literally in the 10 commandments. Baffled actually.

#own post #catholicism #my credentials are life long trauma from catholic school and basic reading comprehension so don't try to tell me that moses and his crew ha #a) churches and b) sundays as their holy/'important to religious activities' day #she also claimed that the thing about not being supposed to take the eucharist when not “”pure enough“” (approximately paraphrasing) is #about going to church on sundays #when i have it on good authority (my catholic grandma) that it's about having gone to confession semi recently #like i feel this person is just obsessed with going to church on sundays #but girly this isn't the medieval times anymore the official doctrine is that being a good person is more important to getting into heaven #than Churchill attendance #obviously church attendance helps but they won't kick you out for being holier than jesus and never going #essentially #she's like really nice and all but she is factually wrong

Let fantasy worlds have plumbing! Let them have chocolate!

#isn't it enough that I must figure out the logistics of horse riding and far distance journeys #I don't wanna deal with chamber pots #it's fantasy!#besides! plumbing was invented veeeery long ago #magic is fine but you draw the line at indoor plumbing... okay -_-#let me have my skibidi toilet!#also it pains me that every fantasy is automatically “medieval” because there are swords or gowns or no cars #people were travelling by carriage in XIX century #nat tries to write #(sorry I watch too many youtube book reviews)

I woke up this morning and realised I'm going to visit Guédelon castle next month and I haven't a stitch to wear.

What I do have is a bag full of linen scraps a neighbour gave me last week, so today I'm making a historybounding late medieval inspired dress

#I'm doing morgan donner's princess seam dress more or less #but no sleeves because not enough fabric #lots of piecing going on here #it's the castle they're building using historical techniques #of secrets of the castle fame #a talia original #talia's adventures in dressmaking #excerpts from my life #sewing progress #historybounding #medieval inspired

About the accents: if someone has a very "proper" Italian they are either foreigners or politicians/dignitaries/etc. So that fits perfectly for Machete, but I think it would be so funny if he sometimes slipped up and used a Nepalese word bc he forgot one in "proper" Italian lol

(Funny to me cause Naples has its own language in addition to accent, and most people don't actually know those words)

.

#ah that's good to hear!#glad it fits him #there's no way he gets it perfect every time #especially in the absence of widely used standardized Italian in the original canon era #there's bound to be a mix up every now and then #I don't know how likely it would be that he absorbed much Venetian at the time he lived there #I remember reading that lectures in medieval and early premodern universities were held in Latin but I could be wrong #even though his original native language is Sicilian I think he has probably lost a lot if not most of it due to lack of use #but it would be kind of funny if the Neapolitan and/or Sicilian influences resurfaced occasionally in private casual conversations #and Vasco who to my knowledge has never been to the south would be left guessing what he was even trying to say #I'm taking the easy way out and lowering their language barriers a bit out of convenience bear with me #I'm not competent enough to deal with all the different languages and dialects and the communication issues that would come with them #answered #anonymous #sorry to point out an obvious typo but I think you must've gotten Neapolitan/Napolese autocorrected to Nepalese by accident or something #unless Machete has secret ties to Nepali that I'm not aware of #which would be quite a twist

I’m officially past the ‘young’ timeline in house of the dragon, and I liked young Rhaenyra, but adult Rhaenyra??

I love her 🖤

King Viserys, to his daughter, who LITERALLY just gave birth: ‘I do hope the labour was easy.’

Rhaenyra, pausing, and then, casually: ‘I think I called the midwife a cunt.’

#anyway I’m having good fun with this #mostly #the men got on my nerves less than I initially expected but that is rapidly changing #tbh I’m mostly speeding through so I can read the fanfic and have at least some clue what’s going on #the show itself is basically just a medieval fantasy soap opera #and I definitely agree: not enough dragons #(and too many men as Olivia and Emma both hilarious and rightly said)#House of the Dragon #Rhaenyra Targaryen #Rhaenicent #don’t come after me for things I say about the show I’m just a casual enjoyer I’m only here for the vibes #I never even watched GoT #seemed like too much of a commitment with the number of seasons #personal

This was courtiers’ garb, rich and soft, though evidently cut for the use of another. Beautiful garments with little purpose, and, Montjoy thought, unlikely to hold together long if they were called upon to face the wear of the road. Henry did not intend to dress him as a servant, even one who acted as prince among messengers, but as a lord — the finely woven linen was terribly soft against his skin, and the hands that secured each lacing were careful indeed.

1418 - With his own hands.

#em draws stuff #henry v 1989 #le roy d'armes des françois (dit montjoye)#no tag for hal because I have. Complex feelings about the way people who are here for medieval history on this website look at my work #anyway here's that darn picture which required a dozen tabs' worth of research on 15th century chairs #(and you can't even really see the chair in the end...)#also I think I want to draw more stained glass. THAT was fun even though the process on this one was not the most pleasant.#not my finest christopher ravenscroft likeness but weirdly enough a fairly spot-on match for my cousin's profile. huh.#well! such is art. on to the next thing (job stuff I've been procrastinating far too long)#caption is a section from a fic which I do not have any plans about finishing (the rest is disjointed sentences I wrote in 2022)

Little gift for @the-merry-otter heheh

I hope you like it!

#my art #gift #otter #idk what to tag this kakdkd #anyway I saw you lamenting over not having the money to commission a medieval otter the other day #and for a long time I’ve wanted to attempt SOMETHING like it #so I figured why not take this opportunity and make a little gift out of it while I’m at it #i don’t think I really nailed the style but I had fun with it!#heraldic #heraldic art #or at least an attempt at it lol #my style isn’t really graphic enough #medieval

rereading some @buggachat BEAU and this panel is SO fallen angel...adrien as the rebellious son cast from his father’s mansion in disgrace, looking back with resentment and longing towards people who were supposed to treat him with love...haha i’m having heretical thoughts again! 🙊

#viv talks #viv you GOTTA stop drawing biblical parallels to MIRACULOUS LADYBUG #what would the pope say #but listen even chat noir's costume silhouette is devilish #cat ears/horns #tail #baton/pitchfork #chat noir #adrien agreste #beau #buggachat #i CANNOT start coming up with adrien/felix/jehovah/lucifer aus in my head #the virgin mary (often depicted medievally in red) being a ladybug holder who cast the most powerful lucky charm in existence (jesus) to #solve the sins of the world was bad enough #slapping myself
