Do you think The Great Arthurian Movie To Rule Them All will ever be made? I know many think that it's Excalibur but we do really need for this century a movie (or perhaps a 2/3 movie saga, but no more) that covers Arthur and his world from his dark begetting at Tintagel to his last travel to Morgan's realm Avalon.
Ohh how I would love it. Unfortunately, I do not think so. I AM SORRY THIS IS GOING TO BE SO LONG
It looks like the movie industry in general is not doing so good, and I do not see them investing in a movie saga on King Arthur after the past flops. I do maybe have more hopes for smaller movies (smaller in scope/plot) like "The Green Knight", so nothing that comprehensive but maybe themes used here and there.
But yeah, I feel like it could only happens if/when we first have a very big success now. Merlin BBC was very successful I feel and it kind of gave rise to a bunch of movies and attempts, but after Camelot Starz, Cursed, the Winter King, the 2017 Guy Ritchie movie - it looks like it is failure after failure.
It is a pretty harsh space nowadays. People have been "trained out" from going to the movies during the main years of the pandemic, with studios sending their movies to digital very early (and sometimes directly). And old small tv-trashy movies are in such small number, because the competition is so high - you cannot throw it on some tv channel and force people to watch it because now people choose. Movies, shows, videogames - it is harsh out there.
Regarding tv shows, I have a bit more trust, but the streaming model also killed the old build up. Now it is one season or you get the axe, and with the competition it has to be a very good show or a very big name attached to it, or someone who insists on insuring that they will have multiple seasons (thank you "The Dragon Prince: Mystery of Aaravos", I had no doubt it would have been axed on s2 without an agreement).
I do have small hopes for tv series and maybe a new Camelot musical movie still. Maybe my hopes are silly, but if Wicked is a success it would be another in a series of movie musicals that were successful or well received. And regarding tv show, if there is a popular enough novel or series of novel in the future maybe we will have one. They really dropped the ball with the Winter King.
BTW, I just wanted to say, these last few years are a on the side of the less-arthurian-media (movies and shows) years. These are the last arthurian movies, all from 2021-2020:
We have three moves in the Fate series, which is the one successful arthurian franchise, alongside Kaamelott movie (another successful arthurian franchise), then we have two animated movies that are just arthurian-themed, then "Arthur and Merlin" which is from a smaller studio, and finally "The Green Knight" which is the one big studio movie there and it was also a success (it made a few million more than what it spent).
2022-2024 no arthurian movies.
If we look from the 60s till now we usually have at least a movie a year with sometimes a year being skipped. The other longer time was 1985-1987 where we had no movies, so we only have these two gaps.
For series, I have more hopes. I actually also hope for a full arthurian anime too. We had a lot of arthurian popular stuff from Japan: Nanatsu no Taizai, the whole Fate franchise which has multiple movies and series, plus there have been two arthurian musicals in the past few years.
So who knows! Maybe the next big arthurian "full on Arthur story" might end up being an expanded Camelot musical movie, or an anime!

fav french media? (films, books, shows, games etc)
OH I LOVE THIS QUESTION THANK YOU SO MUCH 💖
I’m sure I’ll forget a lot of things and smack my own forehead in shame afterwards, but this is what comes to mind right away:
Literature:
Anything ever written by Victor Hugo is a masterpiece. This dude was a terrible human being, but he sure knew how to write, and he contributed to major changes in the social conscience of his contemporaries on many important topics (including but not limited to the death penalty and child labour). To give you a taste, here is my favourite poem ever, which he wrote, because of course he did.
My favourite piece of literature across all categories, though, is and forever will be Cyrano de Bergerac by Edmond Rostand — the story of a man who convinced himself his unusually long nose makes him monstruous. The concept sounds so silly, I know, but this play is a masterpiece and a wonderful love letter to the French language.
Which brings me to my favourite comic series: De Cape et de Crocs by Alain Ayroles and Jean-Luc Masbou! Basically a twelve-volume-long fix-it fic, disguised as a tribute to French literature. Also, a beautiful bromance.
Visual arts:
Basically everyone in France can quote at least one line from Kaamelott, a comedic (?) series derived from the Arthurian legend. It is so well researched and hilarious — until it isn’t.
I’m sure there’s like, a very obvious movie choice that will come back to me in a minute, but I was raised on Disney and Scooby-Doo, so these are clogging my brain at the moment. Just give it time.
When I was very young, I would watch TV at my grandparents’ and enjoy Les Hydronautes, an animated series about an extraterrestrial explorer documenting the Earth’s marine wildlife in an effort to learn how to better protect her own planet (Aka There Are Many Benefits To Being A Marine Biologist: The Series), as well as C’est pas sorcier, a series of very fun documentaries on a plethora of subjects, from lavender farming to volcanic eruptions.
Obviously, Miraculous gets a place on the list too! 🐞🐈⬛
EDIT BECAUSE I FORGOT: Fantomette the animated series! This show is single-handedly responsible for my taste for smart women with amazing hair who ride motorbikes and kick ass. It even had Egytpology as a key part of the plot.
Music:
For me Formidable by Charles Aznavour is a classic, a very cute song, and a great place to start if you want to learn French!
A few other favourites include Fanny Ardant et moi by Vincent Delerm, Le Dîner by Bénabar (extremely funny to listen to while thinking about the Diamonds’ Dance) and J’ai cherché by Amir (This one is… Borderline when it comes to grammar, but cute enough that I grin and bear it. Also, it got us an honourable ranking at the Eurovision a while back, which is rare enough to be celebrated).
ALSO. I complain too much about bad translations and poor writing (see previous bullet point) not to show you kids how it’s done with Je vole from Aladdin (a genius play on words which delves into the two significations of the verb “voler”: to fly or to steal).
Video games:
Long ago, before I discovered the wonderful world of Nintendo, I would wait patiently every month for the new issue of Toboclic. This game had everything: cute animal mascots, stories, mini-games, arts-and-crafts suggestions, catchy songs, interactive documentaries… I’m sure my parents still have the CDs somewhere, but they probably don’t run anymore, which is a shame. I miss my friends.
Thank you so much for the ask, this was so fun to write!
@dragongutsixofficial please do this too so we can compare notes! 👀💖

I was tagged by @everybodyknows-everybodydies to share 5 songs I've been listening to lately. Thank you so much, I love music tag games <3
I took the 5 first songs that are in my "On repeat" Spotify playlist. Not sure how accurate it is, but I do listen to those songs a lot lol (Also, before everyone worries, they are currently in my playlist for my 2024 Nanowrimo project and I listen to it a lot to get in the mood, but they're not necessarily representative of my current mental state ^^)
Tagging: @hemerae-ramblings, @earanie, @gay-impressionist, @saecookie, @solennazertuiop and anyone else who'd like to share some music !

Hello. I shall thank you again for replying to my requests, which are really helpful. But there is a question that I would love to ask. Or maybe two
1. What are your personal favourite Arthuriana movies/series?
2. Which Arthuriana movies/series are the most accurate to the Legends?
3. Which ones shall I avoid? And why?
P. S. I have already watched:
Knights of the Round Table (1953) 9/10 (I loved Lancelot and Elaine together. He loved her, just not as much as he loved Guinevere... Arthur/Lancelot chemistry. Lancelot vs Mordred... Unexpected duel)
Lancelot du Lac (1974) 7/10 (I loved Gawain and the relationship with Lancelot)
Excalibur (1981) 10/10 (The movie is a gem. I wish we had more like this nowadays... The Lancelot redemption was amazing)
Cursed (2020) 6/10 (I only liked the Fae lore there)
BBC Merlin 8/10 (There were some wack moments. And Arthur wasn't really my jam. But the show is amazing)
hi! you’re welcome, i’m glad it was helpful. :^)
this is going to be a long multi-part answer, so i’ll throw it below a cut to avoid an obnoxious wall of text on the dash.
1. What are your personal favourite Arthuriana movies/series?
movies:
Knights of The Round Table (1953)
Sword of Lancelot (1963)
Camelot (1967)
Lancelot du Lac (1974)
Monty Python and The Holy Grail (1975)
Excalibur (1981) [review]
Merlin and The Sword (1985)
A Knight’s Tale (2001)
Tristan and Isolde (2006)
Kaamelott First Installment (2021)
The Green Knight (2021)
shows:
The Adventures of Sir Lancelot (1956–1957)
BBC The Legend of King Arthur (1979)
Merlin (1998)
Starz Camelot (2011)
2. Which Arthuriana movies/series are the most accurate to the Legends?
finding an “accurate” arthurian adaptation or retelling is an exercise in futility. no iteration exists without its own unique interpretation, including the medieval texts. gawain is obscenely inconsistent, so determining what constitutes an “accurate” characterization of him is literally impossible. the same can be said for every aspect of the legends. each author does their own thing! the other problem is that even if what’s there is reminiscent of the stories it references, something is inevitably missing. most of the time it’s gaheris. (okay, it’s always gaheris.) more often than not, the entire prose tristan cast gets cut. occasionally, one of the lads will show up on his own completely disconnected from the original lore… (palamedes in the black knight (1954), lamorak in sword of lancelot (1963) and again in kaamelott the first installment (2021), dinadan in camelot (1967), and tristan in king arthur (2004)) but i digress. if you’re looking for something that covers the majority of the story from arthur’s conception to his death, the choices are minimal.
BBC The Legend of King Arthur (1979)
Excalibur (1981)
3. Which ones shall I avoid? And why?
movies:
The Black Knight (1954): orientalist, black face palamedes. enough said.
Sword of The Valiant (1984): a remake of gawain and the green knight (1973) with worse everything from casting to costuming to pacing. tall, jacked gawain isn’t real and can’t hurt me.
Guinevere (1994): if i was persia woolley and they showed me this movie calling it an adaptation of my books, i’d maul them.
First Knight (1995): so ick it’s funny. wow this lancelot sucks. american accent, insufferable, entitled, gives face-hugger kisses? convoluted scenarios presented as romantic. lame costuming. questionable age gap between arthur/guin. he knew her as a child????? girl run.
Quest For Camelot (1998): rip author vera chapman, fortunate enough to pass before witnessing this abominable adaptation. why americanize the names lynette and gareth? why the hideous animation? the shabby song and dance numbers? the books are dark let’s make a kids musical out of it!
King Arthur: Legend of The Sword (2017): weaksauce attempt to cash in on existing audience. discombobulated the lore until unrecognizable. two women are fridged in the first half hour. strangely edited. nobody is likable. overall cringe.
shows:
King Arthur and The Knights of Justice (1992): nothing of substance here, typical 90s cartoon existing to sell toys.
The Mists of Avalon (2001): i’ll never support anything related to author marion zimmer bradley. she’s dead, let’s kill her legacy too.
Merlin’s Apprentice (2006): not sure what happened here but this sequel to the 1998 original is the biggest downgrade ever.
The Seven Deadly Sins (2014–present): every pitfall an anime can have, this one has in spades. beyond the bastardization of arthurian lore, it’s hard to follow chronologically bc the seasons are named not numbered, full of shameless fan service, lolis, a drop in budget resulted in ugly cgi animation.
Netflix Cursed (2020): take a shot every time a nicknamed character is revealed to be loosely arthurian. no don’t you’ll get alcohol poisoning. did netflix do it? did they solve misogyny by putting a sword in a girl’s hand? this was so disappointing it offended me.
anyway if there’s something i didn’t mention here then it’s mid. bbc merlin isn’t really my thing but it’s fun! transformers feels so far removed from actual arthuriana it’s not worth discussion, unlike some others that are trying really hard and suck so much. stuff like that. hope this gives you some things to check out next!

Kaamelott incorrect quotes:
Berlewen : Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed!
Bohort : I'm sorry, I didn't actually sleep very well. I dreamt about a very upsetting musical number.

Thanks @real-life-senshi for tagging me! I rarely do these kinds of 'get-to-know-you' posts but why not?
The Rules: Tag (9) people you want to know better and/or catch up with, then answer the following:
Four Ships:
Victuuri (Victor Nikiforov x Yuuri Katsuki, Yuri!!! On Ice): I got pulled into the YOI fandom when someone I was following started posting what I thought at the time was an annoyingly excessive number of YOI-related memes and gifs. I ended up watching the series out of curiosity to know what the hype was all about and enjoyed it a lot, which led me to find other people equally interested and talking about it around here, and ultimately led me to the wider world of AO3 where I found many talented writers both in this fandom and others. So I would like to take this opportunity to formally thank the aforementioned YOI-meme poster who unwittingly introduced me to the fandom: @rosepetalrevolution please receive my most heartfelt thanks and this metaphorical gift basket 🎁
Judiki (Julian x Dick Kirrin, Famous Five): If you've been around my blog lately, you know I've been introduced to this pairing by the lovely and talented @sweetsorcery and @majormcnerdy-geekinfantry-blog. This pairing was an unexpected and delightful find that is now living rent free in my head.
Zeus x Ganymede (Greek mythology): @littlesparklight is solely responsible for my discovery and enjoyment of this ship! This prolific writer has also produced many different works around various Greek myths, both shippy and non-shippy, and I can only urge you to visit her AO3 page.
Writers x Readers x Artists: I love collabs. I love when a reader makes a comment that sparks a future idea for a writer. I love when an artist surprises a writer with art for their fics, or when a writer makes a snippet based on a piece of art. Just keep that virtuous circle going!
(I just realised that the 3 ships I listed are all MM but that's not exclusively representative to my tastes. I equally enjoy MF or FF or any other combinations!)
Last Song: The Eurovision 2023 playlist that I listened on repeat for my ratings. I don't really listen to a lot of music on my own; I find it too distracting when I'm reading or looking stuff up on my computer. I listened to music a lot more when I used to draw, though; I always had music as a background then.
Currently Reading: Bill Bryson's The Body: A Guide for Occupants (non fiction) ... as well as a lot of ongoing fics on AO3 -- mostly original works but some fanfics too.
Last Movie: That would be Alexandre Astier's Kaamelott (Premier Volet), based on the legend of King Arthur. It started as a short-format humoristic TV series made of 3-minute episodes, then evolved into 50-minute episodes as the plot got more involved and explored deeper concepts, and the conclusion should now be in the form of a movie trilogy, the first one of which was released a couple of years ago. For a long time, my awareness of the franchise was mainly about the earlier 3-minute humoristic episodes, as they benefit from regular (but out of sequence) reruns on TV. Only recently did I watch the full 6 seasons in the order they were meant to be watched, which greatly enhances the experience. I hope they can get the final two movies made!
Craving: TIME. Seriously. Give me time to read the growing pile of books sitting on my 'to-read' shelf. Give me time to re-read books I've enjoyed in the past and see if I have the same outlook now as I did then. Give me time to read and re-read and comment on AO3 fics. Give me time to resume drawing and learn how to properly use digital art tools. Give me time to practice the piano again. Give me time to exercise so I can feel fitter and stronger in my body. GIVE ME TIME.
Tagging: Absolutely no pressure doing this! Just tagging some of my mutuals and people whose posts and contents always brighten up my dash :) @moonwhing @proantagonista (whom I have not mentioned above but whose YOI fic "Winter Song" was one of the earliest I read and convinced me there was really good stuff to be found in fanfic) @sweetsorcery @majormcnerdy-geekinfantry-blog @littlesparklight @rosepetalrevolution @happyheidi @somethingyoirelated @sheepskeleton-art

Hiii ! How are you Tumblr people?
I just thought that I should try to start writing some things about my fav kpop groups, or overall universes I like.
Here's my Masterlist !!
So, let's get into the real "about me".
You can call me Regamoth or Rega, I used to have my real name as my id on social medias but I realized there was lots of weird people on there.
My pronouns are he/she, I'm genderfluid and sapphic.🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
I'm a 04 liner, born the same day as Yoona from SNSD, Ailee and Eunha from Viviz and Joan of Arc's deathday :)
I'm French, English is not my first language so don't hit me if I make some mistakes 🤧
My hobbies are kinda basic tbh, listening to music, watching youtube, twitch, movies, tv shows, building legos,
I'm into kpop since April 2017, my ex-best friend was a fan and she made me discover this incredible universe.
I'll only write for the artists I stan and the movies/shows I like
Kpop: NCT, Xdinary Heroes (I see literally no contents about them that's sad), Sunmi, Blackpink, XG, Aespa, Le sserafim, Dreamcatcher, G-Idle, TXT, The Rose, EXO.
Others: The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, The Umbrella Academy, Sex Education, Friends, Derry Girls, Harry Potter (fuck JKR). And, if I find some Frenchies interested in that, I might write about the tv show Kaamelott because even if the fans are cringe it's still a cool show.
Tbh, I think I'll mainly write headcanons or scenarios, things that are quick to write because my lazy ass is gonna have trouble writing big, well written, imagines all the time :(
I'm not sure I'll write smut. Maybe just suggestive or not direct smut. Idk I'll figure it out ig.
Don't hesitate to send me ideas! Please interact with this post to keep me motivated 🤧

Totally forgot that I’ve been tagged by @festivalsofmargot in “what is melody? TAG”
(Go read her fiction, it is so good)
🎶✨When you get this, you have to put 5 songs you actually listen to, publish. Then, send this ask/tag 10 of your favourite followers (non-negotiable, positivity is cool) 🎶✨
Since I listen to a lot of different genre of music let me share you random song I like from my playlist :
던 (DAWN) - 빛이 나는 너에게 (Dear My Light) : a break up song so sweet. Feels at the finest. The instrumental version is just perfect.
youtube
Pomme - Jane & John : a talented french singer (and composer). Her voices and the lyrics. I speak french so that’s why I wanted to promote a cool french artist. She tells the story of two ill-fated lovers.
youtube
Arthur à la Tour (Bande originale du film "Kaamelott - Premier Volet") : Again a french promotion (and in a lovers mood). Not a song but a music from a movie. Alexandre Astier is a French actor, author, director, composer, screenwriter, producer, editor and musician (and he is really smart). I have a lot of respect for him!
youtube
Glenn Miller - I Know Why (And So Do You) : While playing Hogwarts legacy (or while reading fictions) I had this song that came to my mind quite often. Not time accurate but I don’t know... the viiiiiibe. Well that’s propably more of a Fall out vibe to be honest.
youtube
BIBI(비비) _ KAZINO(사장님 도박은 재미로 하셔야 합니다) : recently back from Korea so another Kpop song. Her voice is mesmrizing.
youtube
I hope I’ve made you discover nice song (tell me if that’s the case u.uh). Can I tag : @theravenchild @applinsandoranges @vivienne-writes @jth1nksss (I hope you dont mind guys)!

Morgause through time (movies, tv shows, opera and musicals)
1999 Excalibur kid (played by Francesca Scorsone): My favorite Morgause, here for the first time she is a co-protagonist and the main antagonist of a movie. In this re-interpretation of Connecticut Yankee, Morgause decides to bypass Arthur and use her magic to call a modern day guy into arthurian times, let him take the sword from the stone and become king... much easier to manipulate a fish out of water than Arthur himself! She is quite funny too through the movie. She also can use magic.
2001 The Mists of Avalon (played by Joan Allen): Directly adapted from the novels, Morgause takes the classic role of witch, Arthur's half sister, Morgana's ally and antagonist. In this miniseries, Morgause also raises Mordred like her son, and raises him to be ready to take power from Guinevere and Arthur, back to her family.
2005 Kaamelott (played by Anouk Grinberg as Anna de Tintagel): In Kaamelott, Anna is a very secondary characters who only appears in a few episodes. She is introduced as Arthur's half sister, married to Lot and desiring Arthur's death more than anything else. She seems to have a long term plan to destroy Arthur, and it is not clear if she actually conceived Mordred with him and this will come out in the new movie, or if it was simply a reference to Morte d'arthur.
2008 Merlin (played by Emilia Fox): Morgause is a warrior and magic user, daughter of Gorlois and Vivienne and half sister of Morgana. She appears in the show to tell Arthur and Morgana the truth about Uther's cruelty and their families. Later on, she works alongside Morgana to destroy Uther and conquer Camelot, allowing magic users to finally be free.
2018 Arthur et les enfants de la Table Ronde (voiced by Barbara Scaff in the French original version): Morgause is one of the two Tintagel sisters (the other being Igraine) who are the main antagonists of this animated show. She is kind of goofy and a bit of a lackey to her sister Igraine. Together with their cousin Mordred they want to take power from Uther as they believe themselves the true inheritors of the Pendragon line.
I found it pretty interesting that Morgause was eliminated pretty quickly from arthurian movies. If we look at a chronological list of movies and tv shows (ex. this one) we can see how her role was absorbed by Morgana.
In 1960 we have the musical Camelot (adaptation of White's Oafk) which still retains Morgause as Mordred's mother. Morgause does not appear, but she is mentioned, while Morgana appears in one scene. This is the first time we have Mordred presented as Arthur's relative, and probably the big turnaround that finally allows Mordred to appears in movies as Arthur's illegitime son. In the BBC "The Legend of King Arthur" (1979) Morgause is also Mordred's mother, but does not appear - we have instead Morgana.
"Mists of Avalon" retains Morgause as Mordred mother by allowing her to adopt him after Morgana gave birth to him. This will be the last time she will appear as his mother.
I suspect since "Excalibur" (1981) was such a success, it was just easier for movies to add the much more active Morgana (often also taking the role of Nimue) instead of Morgause, and to merge the two together to enrich Morgana's character even more.
In general, for the few times Morgause actually appears, she seems to take the role of antagonist, I suspect almost "stealing" it from Morgana often to allow Morgana to be more sympathetic. In "Excalibur kid" she acts as a witch, effectively taking the role often given to Morgana but her actress is quite fun and the movie light enough that she still manages to avoid the evil cliches, in "Mists of Avalon" she is also one of the main antagonists and is not presented in a sympathetic light.
"Kaamelott" then has, in my opinion, the most interesting adaptation of Morgause. She hates Arthur, but the scenes where she expresses her hatred also shows her so filled with despair and emotions, and many of her appearances leaves an almost unease and enigmatic feeling (or at least they did in me!).
In 2008 ("Merlin") we go back to almost a cliche villain Morgause. While her cause does have merit, Merlin BBC never did a good job in managing the oppression of magic users vs what ways and means of resistance were considered allowed by the morality of the shows. We have Morgana, Morgause and many other magic users who are oppressed cruelly, and yet are only introduced as villains and often taken to the extreme in their actions or just "smirking like a villain" scenes.
And finally we get to the 2018 French animated series, which full turns Morgause into a comedic villain.
A small note: I was quite sad to see that Morgana has taken Morgause's role with so much success than even in the 2021's "The Green Knight" Gawain's mother is Morgana herself.

There's this Et Tout le Monde s'en fout redraw i will never finish :
And this school project (vraiment celui la je l'ai abandonné, trop galère, trop long)
(can you spot the references and where i gave up? Lol)
There's also those two Doctor Who illustrations i wanted to finish, but i ended up dropping out of the HetBigbang 2022 maybe i'll get back to them next year
And finally thooooose :
They are objectsonas (from left to right, me, @enfoutreur-du-futur @breizhbaguette and @eclipsedshadowk ) i wanted to draw my bestie's sona as well but i had no time 😔 (i also made colored version as a print for @enfoutreur-du-futur that i gave him in person!) (if u see this mwamwamwah)
And this is a wip i am slowly working on, it's my OC's city, but it's also an art school project, the prompt was "Babel's tower" ! Did you see the flying boat? I think it's pretty cool
11) "Do you listen to anything while drawing? If so, what" i listen to music for hours or to long video essays, the stupider the better (also bad book reviews, they are super funny) lately i listen to a lot of Orelsan and Yodelice, but my Drawing playlist is 50h long and very diverse
17) "Do you eat/drink when drawing? if so, what" i always have a bottle of water or some tea on my desk (i live dangerously) (malgré ça je suis déshydratée comme une feuille craquante, bonk me)
26) "What's a piece that got a wildly different interpretation from what you intended"
I don't know, i rarely make art that's hard to understand, and when it comes to original art, i rarely put thoughts into the meaning behind it so every interpretation i hear is interesting
28) "Any art events you have participated in the past (like zines)"
I'm in the vdf discord's Secret Santa this year, and the last two years i was doing the Kaamelott's fandom secret santa !
And as i said earlier i tried to participate to the HetBigbang but dropped out because i had too much work. i was also in an exhibition this summer in Carpentras, where they got this drawing printed on a big canvas (2x1m something like that) and suspended in the street with a bunch of other artists! :) and i am working with my sister on an exhibit for april. I never made anything for a fanzine but i would love to.
30) "What piece of yours do you think is underrated"
This one

I'm soooo late to this but thanks for the tag @three-atoms and @tragicotps ! I've answered some similar questions just now, so this will be quite repetitive, sorry ^^
last song : Hurricane by Fleurie
currently watching : Fais pas ci, fais pas ça more than 10 years after the facts lol It hasn't aged as bad as I though tbh, it's quite a nice watch ^^
three ships : This is always hard for me to answer but at the moment, I'd say River/Doctor from Doctor Who, Marisa/Asriel from His Dark Materials and Florence/Antoine from L'Art du Crime, but I will also mention Guenièvre/Arthur from Kaamelott and Moiraine/Siuan from Wheel of Time because truly those five ships are constantly rotating in my mind
favorite color : bordeaux!
currently consuming : um, idk, music and good vibes ?
first ship : i honestly don't know, probably something HP related
current location : my room, at my desk quite exactly

Quelques pensées sur Kaamelott : the Musical :
Les couleurs des tenues sont encore plus pétantes, pour qu'on puisse identifier les personnages depuis le dernier rang. Les armures sont adaptées pour ne pas gâcher les chansons avec des Clang-CLANG intempestifs
Les maîtresses forment un chœur particulièrement prompt aux coups de coudes bien placés et au volage de spotlight
Arthur chante les noms de Manilius et Lancelot sur la même exacte mélodie
Perceval a une chanson extrêmement rapide et compliquée où il explique les règles du sloubi à une vitesse qui permet très peu l'aération buccale. Cette chanson a deux reprises sur d'autres jeux du pays de Galles, chacune plus rapide que les autres, la dernière en duo avec Arthur pour le jeu du Pélican. Ça devient la chanson la plus connue du truc
L'entretien d'embauche dans la taverne sert à introduire plusieurs personnages, dont Lancelot (🎶Adjectif : loyal/Rien qu'à vous/Et au Graal) ces lignes en particulier font leur retour plus tard, dans la bouche d'Arthur : (🎶Adjectif : loyal/Pas à moi/Juste au Graal)
Blaise ne chante que sur des mélodies avec des accords justes
Bohort et Léodagan font des harmonies de dingues qui sont flirty as fuck dans Un Homme Comme Vous (aka L'escorte) et absolument heartbreaking dans Un Roi Comme Vous (aka Léodagan prend le pouvoir)
Guenièvre commence la pièce en servant surtout d'harmonie aux autres personnages ou en duo avec Arthur, mais après avoir quitté Lancelot, elle a de plus en plus de morceaux où c'est elle la leading voice
Toutes les chansons d'Arthur sont au minimum des duos, à l'exception de Ce Que J'ai Fait (🎶Qu'on ne dise pas que je n'ai rien fait/Qu'on ne le dise pas ; parce que ce n'est pas vrai) et Dernier Songe (🎶Monter vers le trône pour descendre vers les bains/L'important, au final, c'est qu'on n'y songe à rien)
Chansons en vrac :
Table Ronde (une chanson chaotique où tous les chevaliers donnent de la voix et qui finit avec tout le monde qui chante des paroles différentes en même temps, pensez à One Day More ou bien Non-Stop)
J'ai Rêvé du Monde (Arthur qui raconte son rêve à Perceval dans Dies Irae)
Chant Nuptial (repris à l'occasion de chaque mariage d'Arthur)
Combien De Galaxies (vous savez qui c'est qui chante ça, of course)
