#Gouvernail

A couple more lil Arthuriana designs (For those of you who know about the comic I still do intend to finish it eventually... I think it just needs a bit of a rewrite and I need more time XD)

Cornwall Gang: Brangaine, Dinadan, Gouvernail, Isolde of Ireland, Palamedes, and Tristan

Morally Dubious Sorceress Squad: the Lady of Avalon, Morgan le Fay, the Queen of Norgales, and Sebile

Speaking of Isolde, Melnitsa has a song called Изольда (Isolde) - they also have a Тристан (Tristan), but I like that one less - with lyrics in second person written as the narrator talking to Tristan about his love for Isolde, and I always think of it as Tristan's friends talking to him, specifically verse one as Palamedes (like merciless enemies in hot battles for her love, for her love, my silver one! I Have Feelings about these lines), verse two as either Dinadan the skeptic trying to remind Tristan of the dangers of love or Gouvernail being worried about his pupil, and verse three as Lancelot, because who else is more familiar with inescapable love

Rough quick translation of the lyrics:

By the shores of the distant seas, By endless rains in the scarlet silks of sails, Like merciless enemies in hot battles for her love — For her love, my silver one.

Beyond the seas you'll find her, Beyond the cold waves the sky grows dark with arrows, Beyond the cold eyes… would you give all you've ever had For her love, my silver one?

Beyond the tsunami just a flute is singing In golden voices in the fathomless dark, in silence, Like golden hair — even at the bottom you couldn't hide From her love, my silver one.

Bonne traversée à tous

Avez-vous déjà observé comment est fait un bateau à voiles? De manière schématique, un voilier comprend une coque dotée d’un mât, une voile et un gouvernail. La coque est la partie solide qui vous soutient et vous abrite durant la traversée. La voile que viennent gonfler généreusement les vents, c’est ce qui vous permet de progresser inlassablement vers votre but. Enfin, le gouvernail vous…

The chapter of Mark in the Laurel tree and Tristan and Iseult realizing and gaslighting him into forgiving them is very funny.

The adventures following this sound crazy like Tristan and Iseult living in Joyous Guard, Tristan in jail for four years, Lancelot coming to get him then forgetting because he has his madness arc, Percival being the one who actually ends up rescuing Tristan. A WAR BETWEEN DINAS AND MARK?? Crazy stuff. So much going on.

I think all and all Tristan must have died at around 33 years old.

Tristan's death speech is UMBER ABLE. He's soooooooo full of himself omg. Also I think Iseult did not actually want to die there with him TBH.

Iseult did not get a cool death speech. I call that misogyny.

Sagramore and Tristan besties!! Tristan specifically saying goodbye to Palamedes and Dinadan in his speech

Palamedes dying during the Grial Quest 😭

What happened to my girl Brangain Ms. Curtis I'm begging on my knees.

Did someone finally kill Mark please tell me someone did

Phew, what a ride!!! This needed more Dinadan though

Aronnax (offscreen): Comme tous les céphalopodes, l’argonaute nage à reculons, en refoulant l’eau au moyen de son tube locomoteur…

Panel 5

Aronnax (offscreen): Si quelque danger se présente, si l'approche d'un ennemi se fait sentir, si les vents commencent à rider la surface des eaux, l'argonaute fait rentrer promptement ses rames, ses voiles et son gouvernail dans sa coquille, [trails off]

Arthurian characters I interpret as acespec:

Galahad, the Grail Heroine, and Bors: They generally have no apparent trouble or qualms with the eternal chastity thing (except Bors when he gets cursed, but he gets cursed).

Brangaine: In La Tavola Ritonda, she tells Gouvernail that she never wants to have sexual relationships, and in a text I haven't yet read or been able to identify, she apparently stops Kahedin from sleeping with her by using a magic pillow to make him fall asleep, a role which is Camille's in Kaherdin and Camille.

Dinadan: In LTR, they call him the Wise Man Who Does Not Love, and while he has a romantic interest in LTR, their relationship isn't sexual. To the best of my knowledge, he has no other romantic interest and no sexual relationship in all of medlit and pretty much always scorns both concepts. Usually aro, demiromantic in one text, and always ace.

Lucan: It's not anything he says or does, but unless you count the actions of Lucano the evil half-giant half-lion in LTR, he doesn't have any romantic and/or sexual relationships in any medlit I know of. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, but in my mind, he's on the aro and ace spectrums.

Happy Ace Week to all who celebrate!

Edit: I had somehow left out Dinadan, who I originally meant to include a picture of. I guess you could say he's implicit. Truly one of the aroace icons of all time. He ran so Jughead could also run.

Femme tenant le gouvernail d'un voilier

There used to be a real gothic metal band named Tristania and I don’t know whether that was a coincidence or whether they named it after Tristram’s Tristania. I’m not sure whether I prefer the latter—them appreciating medieval literary characters—or the former—it being a splendid coincidence.

The antidote Palomides procures against death by unrequited love cannot fail to appeal to a modern reader, familiar as we all are with the therapeutic powers inherent in ones creative faculties: 'therewythall he leyde hym downe by the welle, and so began to make a ryme of La Beall Isode and of sir Trystram... [S]ir Palomydes [lay] by the welle and sange lowde and myryly (473-4.86).

— Between Knights: Triangular Desire and Sir Palomides in Sir Thomas Malory's "The Book of Sir Tristram de Lyones" by Olga Burakov Mongan

So the therapeutic powers part is a beautiful interpretation, but also all I can think of now is Tristania modern AU, in which they're all in a band with messy interpersonal relationships and writing songs about each other Fleetwood Mac style.

(Dinadan, the only one not tragically in love with someone, writes weird narrative songs and diss tracks about the people he dislikes)

Plus douce qu'aux enfants la chair des pommes sûres,

L'eau verte pénétra ma coque de sapin

Et des taches de vins bleus et des vomissures

Me lava, dispersant gouvernail et grappin.

Et dès lors, je me suis baigné dans le Poème

De la Mer, infusé d'astres, et lactescent,

Dévorant les azurs verts ; où, flottaison blême

Et ravie, un noyé pensif parfois descend ;

Où, teignant tout à coup les bleuités, délires

Et rythmes lents sous les rutilements du jour,

Plus fortes que l'alcool, plus vastes que nos lyres,

Fermentent les rousseurs amères de l'amour !

Je sais les cieux crevant en éclairs, et les trombes

Et les ressacs et les courants : je sais le soir,

L'Aube exaltée ainsi qu'un peuple de colombes,

Et j'ai vu quelquefois ce que l'homme a cru voir !

~Arthur Rimbaud
