TV shows
I forget what I have mentioned, but I have been watching a few shows over the past months...
- The Rings of Power. Keep meaning to do a proper post about this (I'll get there). Worth watching, and does interesting things with the lore. I think my favourite thing was the Elrond/Durin friendship. <3
- Black Doves (Netflix). Fun, Christmassy spy thriller with Keira Knightly and Ben Whishaw (they're BFFs). 2nd season has been green-lit as far as I know. ETA: You should watch it! I think it was selenak who said that it could become a Christmas staple. :)
- KAOS (Netflix). Modern Day take on Greek Mythology with captive (and sometimes unexpected) story lines, incredibly inclusive casting, ridiculously queer, Jeff Goldblum as Zeus! (It was cancelled of course. Because we can't have nice things.) SO good. SO SO good.

I also wrote fic:
I Kissed A Cat And I liked It
Summary:
i met a scholar once who said that tragedies aren’t about a silly “flaw” or anything, it’s about having a hero who’s just in the wrong goddamn story
if hamlet swapped places with othello he wouldn’t be duped by any of iago’s shit, he’d sit down & have a good think & actually examine the facts before taking action. meanwhile in denmark, othello would have killed claudius before act 2 could even start. but instead nope, they’re both in situations where their greatest strengths are totally useless and now we’ve got all these bodies to bury.
(x)
Or: What if a very different 16 year old boy ended up in Port Townsend and met the Cat King?
Dead Boy Detectives fic, but crossed over with Doctor Who (specifically my own Seeker 'verse). Can be read with little to no knowledge of Doctor Who (or indeed my 'verse), but you must have watched at least the first two episodes of DBDA. (Why yes it's stupidly niche... Have you met me?)

It's CRAZY. It's STACKED with big names (as well a fantastic newcomers) and they cancelled it after a month. There is no logic! They cancelled Jeff Goldblum. Is that even legal?
The fic you wrote was fantastic!
Awwwww, thank you! ❤️😽
