#listen bencutio has less textual evidence but that doesn’t mean it’s not very present in every single production#it is impossible to stage romeo and juliet without implying something unseen about benvolio and mercutio#it’s in the way mercutio discusses benvolio’s foul temper even though the audience only sees him as a pacifist#it’s in the way benvolio tries to appeal to a gentler calmer side of mercutio even though the audience only sees him as a hothead#it’s in mercutio’s bitter rejection of the kind of love romeo is obsessed with#it’s in the way that mercutio - bleeding out and suddenly fiercely angry at the way those he trusted have betrayed him - calls on benvolio#asks benvolio to help him walk even though the montagues have just killed him and even though he’s just cursed their entire family#and it’s in the way benvolio isn’t included in that curse#it’s in the way that benvolio walks onstage alone for the first time since mercutio’s introduction to declare that he’s dead#it’s in the way that everyone else runs away from the crime scene in order not to be caught but benvolio stays right there with the bodies#and then vouches for mercutio when everyone else is more concerned with helping romeo avoid punishment#and it’s the only time that he really seems to take sides in the feud#it’s in the way that they nearly always appear together in the little scenes they have#and benvolio has to walk in one last time on his own#it’s in the way that benvolio spends all his time trying to pull mercutio back from danger and then has to watch his worst fears realised#it’s about the futility. it’s about how benvolio is the only one who could survive alone#it’s the interpretation that maybe. maybe another forbidden love story fell victim to this feud#maybe they were parallels to romeo and juliet all along#but they did not succeed in breaking the cycle#romeo and juliet get statues made of gold but what do benvolio and mercutio get#a devastating loss in the FIRST ROUND of a gayest shakespeare couple poll? for shame.

Franco Zeffirelli, Creator Of Lavish Productions On Screen And Stage, Dies At 96 By Neda Ulaby • Jun 15, 2019
Franco Zeffirelli once said that when the curtain comes up "you have to give the audience a big thing to look at."
The Italian filmmaker and opera director gave audiences plenty to look at — in his lavishly styled operas and his biblical and Shakespearean film adaptations.
Zeffirelli died Saturday in Rome after a long illness. His death was announced on the Foundation of Franco Zeffirelli website. He was 96.
Zeffirelli was born out of wedlock on Feb. 12, 1923 into a rigid Italian society that viewed indiscretions sternly. As a little boy, kids teased him for not knowing his father's last name. (Zeffiretti was the name his mother made up based on a Mozart aria; it means little breezes and was incorrectly transcribed as Zeffirelli.)
Zeffirelli's mother died when he was 6 and he lived briefly in an orphanage before relatives took him in. He credited his artistic growth to a British expatriate whose circle of friends he enshrined in the 1999 semi-autobiographical film Tea with Mussolini.
Zeffirelli told NPR in 1986 that he was nourished, in a sense, by his hometown's aesthetic glory. "I always used to play football in the cloister [of] San Marco ..." he said. "We were brought up with this kind of familiarity with the beauty of art."
Zeffirelli became a sought-after set designer and opera director after World War II. He worked with leading figures like Luchino Visconti and Maria Callas. But Zeffirelli said at the beginning, the music meant less than the spectacle.
"First of all, the visuals attracted me in opera," he said. "And later when I matured I found out that emotion is not only visual but is so complex and so complete like no other medium, you have everything there — the magic of everything, the best of everything."
Even his critics admired Zeffirelli's sumptuously visualized operas, which often resembled Renaissance paintings come to life. A production of La Bohème in the early 1960s reportedly caused gasps of awe so loud, they drowned out the music.
Zeffirelli's fame surged after he directed celebrity couple Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton in the 1967 film The Taming of the Shrew. They encouraged him to follow it with Romeo and Juliet.
Zeffirelli daringly cast two unknown teenagers as Romeo and Juliet — the film was a massive international success and helped rescue then-faltering Paramount Pictures.
In 1981, Zeffirelli was irritated when his less successful film, Endless Love, suffered in comparison. "The story of Romeo and Juliet has been one of the blessings and curse of my entire career," he griped. "Whenever you touch adolescent love, automatically, even a child says, 'Well, that's Romeo and Juliet.'"
Romeo and Juliet would haunt Zeffirelli in other ways. Bruce Robinson, the young actor who played Benvolio later said Zeffirelli had sexually assaulted him. Robinson grew up to be a well-known screenwriter; he wrote The Killing Fields and a 1987 film called Withnail and I. It features a lecherous old man supposedly modeled on Zeffirelli. The director never responded to those allegations.
Zeffirelli found scandal again in 1988 when he described Martin Scorsese's The Last Temptation of Christ as a product of "that Jewish cultural scum of Los Angeles which is always spoiling for a chance to attack the Christian world."
Zeffirelli was a deeply conservative Roman Catholic. He shared the Vatican's views on abortion and gay rights. For a few terms he represented a right wing party in the Italian Senate.
In 2006, he sparked a minor controversy when he told a newspaper he felt he'd suffered no harm as a child after being molested by a priest.
Wayne Koestenbaum, a professor at CUNY New York, says in many ways, Zeffirelli was a relic. Even his opulent operas, stuffed with enormous props, hundreds of extras and live animals have for years been critically mocked, and yet --
"I think if you want to have a sense of what grand opera means, you need to have seen at least one Zeffirelli production," Koestenbaum says.
Zeffirelli brought grand opera and Shakespeare up close. His productions dazzled, and they beat with an old-fashioned heart.
SCOTT SIMON, HOST:
Franco Zeffirelli has died. He was one of the 20th century's most famous directors of opera. He also directed film adaptations of Bible stories and of Shakespeare, including "Romeo And Juliet" and "The Taming Of The Shrew." His death in Rome today came after a long illness, according to an announcement on his foundation's website. Franco Zeffirelli was 96 years old. NPR's Neda Ulaby has this look back on his work and a life that began with a birth out of wedlock.
NEDA ULABY, BYLINE: Franco Zeffirelli born into a rigid, Italian society that viewed indiscretions sternly. As a little boy, Zeffirelli was teased for not knowing his father's real last name - his was made up. (SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "ZEFFIRETTI LUSINGHIERI - EI STESSO VIEN. OH DEI (LIVE)") SYLVIA MCNAIR: (Singing in foreign language). ULABY: Zeffirelli was taken from a Mozart aria by his mother. It means little breezes and was wrongly transcribed as Zeffirelli. Zeffirelli's mother died when he was 6, and he lived briefly in an orphanage before relatives took him in. He credited his artistic growth to a British expatriate whose circle of friends he enshrined in the 1999 semi-autobiographical film "Tea With Mussolini." (SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "TEA WITH MUSSOLINI") JUDI DENCH: (As Arabella) Florence isn't just shiny cars and ice creams as little boys think. It's the human form divine. The body beautiful. And you - yes, you - could be part of that world to make, to create. ULABY: Zeffirelli told NPR in 1986 that he was nourished in a sense by his hometown's aesthetic glory. (SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED BROADCAST) FRANCO ZEFFIRELLI: I always used to play football in the cloister San Marco, you know, (speaking Italian). We were brought up with this kind of familiarity with the beauty of art. ULABY: Zeffirelli became a sought-after set designer and opera director after World War II. He worked with leading figures like Luchino Visconti and Maria Callas. But Zeffirelli said, at the beginning, the music meant less to him than the spectacle. ZEFFIRELLI: First of all, the visuals attracted me in opera. Then later when I matured, I found that the emotion is not only visual, but it's so complex and so complete like no other medium. You have everything there. You have the magic of everything, the best of everything. (SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "LA BOHEME: ACT I: O SOAVE FANCIULLA") LUCIANO FANCIULLA: (Singing in foreign language). ULABY: Even his critics admired Zeffirelli's sumptuously visualized operas, which often resembled Renaissance paintings come to life. A production of "La Boheme" in the early '60s reportedly caused gasps of awe so loud it drowned out the music. Zeffirelli also filmed the opera.

They encouraged him to follow it with "Romeo And Juliet." Zeffirelli daringly casted two unknown teenagers.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "ROMEO AND JULIET") LEONARD WHITING: (As Romeo Montague) I am afeard being in night. All this is but a dream. Too flattering-sweet to be substantial. OLIVIA HUSSEY: (As Juliet Capulet) Three words, dear Romeo and good night indeed. If that thy bent of love be honorable... WHITING: (As Romeo Montague) Yes. HUSSEY: (As Juliet Capulet) ...Thy purpose marriage. Send me word tomorrow by one that I'll procure to come to thee. ULABY: "Romeo And Juliet" was a massive international success and helped rescue then-faltering Paramount Pictures. In 1981, Zeffirelli was irritated when his less successful film "Endless Love" suffered in comparison.

(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED BROADCAST) UNIDENTIFIED PERSON: In Italy, a storm of protest is raging over the inclusion of director Martin Scorsese's film "The Last Temptation Of Christ" at the Venice Film Festival. ULABY: In that 1988 NPR broadcast, Sylvia Poggioli reported on Zeffirelli's response to "The Last Temptation Of Christ."
(SOUNDBITE ARCHIVED BROADCAST) SYLVIA POGGIOLI, BYLINE: He described it as a product of, quote, "that Jewish cultural scum of Los Angeles which is always spoiling for a chance to attack the Christian world."

Achilles/Patroclus
Recognition by captainskellington 8,456
Patroclus didn’t need to ask who “he” was, he knew full well. He’d been living for this day for eight years now, some twisted cocktail of hope and dread seeping through his body every time he thought of it, which was often. He was back. He was back.
as the poets say by jinkandtherebels

Harry Hart/Gary 'Eggsy' Unwin
The Green by Ataraxetta
There's a very long moment of profound silence, and then Eggsy punches Harry right in his smug fucking face.
Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski
Choice by Omni
(Or: Stiles gets bitten by a different alpha, but of course would prefer to have Derek as his alpha. And also just, you know, have Derek.)
Now The Walls Line The Bullet Holes by HenryMercury
Derek’s looking at him with an uncomfortable sort of reverence—keeping his distance, keeping silent—and that’s the final straw. Stiles has been holding it together pretty well, he thinks, what with Peter’s bite and almost dying and suddenly gaining new psychic powers—but he has no idea how he’s supposed to come to grips with a world in which Derek Hale is afraid of Stiles Stilinski.
Teenage Dream by matildajones
After an accident, Stiles wakes up to what can only be a dream. He has money, he has fame, he has award winning actor Derek Hale as his husband. It quickly seems more and more like a nightmare because Stiles doesn't remember getting any of it - and it's hard to accept the reality that Derek can still love him.
Play Crack the Sky by WeAreTheCyclones
Excerpt from “Hale Pulls the Plug on the Future of Rock,” Rolling Stone, Issue 1203 – Oct. 2014 “Fans and music industry vets alike are left reeling in the wake of bassist Derek Hale’s sudden departure from Smokes for Harris. At a time when the foursome from Beacon Hills, California seems to be on the cusp of rock superstardom after just one double platinum record, Smokes has everything to lose.”
Best in Show by thegirlgrey
Derek adopts a cat. Or a cat adopts Derek. It all depends on who’s telling the story really.
Murder, He Wrote by mklutz
And that was how Stiles accidentally became a New York Times bestselling author.
Home by TheTypewriterGirl
January seventh. Seven days since the start of 2015, and seven days since his father’s death.
The bastard, he thinks bitterly. The past year Derek Hale had made it blatantly obvious that he hated his scrawny guts, taking every given opportunity to shove him up against a wall, growl threats in his ears and roll his eyes whenever he stepped into the room, muttering some snide comment about how spastic or idiotic he was.
So why did he fucking volunteer to take him in?
Read My Mind by sunnydalewerewolf
the one in which Derek is a mind-reading werewolf, and Stiles likes to spend his morning commute fantasizing about the ridiculously attractive guy sitting across from him.
And You Say You're Alone by taelynhawker
Between the kanima, the Argents, and Peter's untimely return from the dead, everything has fallen apart. Stiles and Derek try to put their lives back together once the crisis has passed. Stiles deals with the aftermath of being tortured, and the distance growing between he and Scott. Derek attempts to become a stronger alpha and keep his pack safe, and that includes Stiles.
Can't Take the Heat? by Ilovesocks_24
Or the one where Stiles is a new sous chef at Full Moon Steakhouse and Derek is the Gordon Ramsay of all head chefs. So of course they fall in love.
and home will feel like home again by eversincewefellapart
Derek had slipped the ring onto Stiles’ finger five years ago, when Stiles was still asleep, and had then watched the boy snore softly and peaceful, knowing that as soon as he’d wake he’d scrub his eyes, notice the ring and be anything but peaceful for days to come. It was possibly a bit stuck-up of Derek to think Stiles would accept, no doubt, but he had, in the end, snot-nosed and flushed-faced, warm hands buried in Derek’s hair, kissing him over and over, between his frantic, confused words.
You Can Hear It In the Silence by Mimiminaj
Stiles focused on Derek’s face long enough to see a flicker of regret flash across it. Good. Serves him right for throwing him against a brick wall.
Divided We Stand by KouriArashi
Derek is being pressured by his family to pick a mate, and somehow stumbles into a choice that they didn't expect and aren't sure they approve of....
I've Got This Friend by pollitt
This, Derek realizes, is his life.
Scott McCall/Stiles Stilinski
A Place to Belong by blacktofade
Stiles doesn’t know what to expect after they complete the ritual, after his father’s checked over at the hospital and released a few hours later, after Stiles is back at home, sitting on the end of his bed with a heaviness in his chest that’s never been there before.
Only Fools Rush In by daunt, rosewindow
“Pros to taking Stiles to the Werewolf Wedding: One, I’m non-supernatural, but I know about supernatural things. Two, I own a suit. Three, I look good in said suit."
Scott and Stiles attend a werewolf gathering and think they can totally play at being boyfriends, no problem. But Scott already has a bit of a crush on his best friend, and lets his protectiveness get the better of him, putting them in a tough situation.
A Phenomenon When You Came Along by Loz
Stiles and Scott embark on a road trip together. This isn't a metaphor (except for how it is.)
Love You So Hard by tryslora
Stiles is gonna be the best fake boyfriend ever, and Scott's not sure he'll survive the experience.
Captain Hook | Killian Jones/Emma Swan
Thaw by passing-fanciful (kageygirl)
Emma's still having a problem balancing "being the Savior" and "enjoying the moments." Good thing she picked a partner who'll let her find her footing.
a one time thing (and other untruths) by weezly14 
"She supposes the reason she tells him is the same reason she kept his phone number after all those weeks." Pregnancy has a way of throwing a wrench in one's plans.
Someone Like You by seastarved
But what happens after the end of the story? What happens when the heroes lose and the villains win and nobody at all is happy? Perhaps you write a new ending. Perhaps the story goes on.
i'm having a hard time (i'm making you do the hard time too) by Sylv 
[Princess Emma is widely known for being beautiful and intelligent and remarkably good at getting what she wants. When a young lieutenant visits the castle, she decides she wants him.]
a breakfast for kings by captainkillianhjones 
eating in the same diner every morning and the waitress ALWAYS mixes up our orders so why don't we just sit at the same table to save her the trouble
I Almost Do by ihearttvsnark
Emma and Henry say goodbye to their friends and family and escape Storybrooke as Regina's magic defeats Pan's curse and sends everyone back to the Enchanted Forest. Or at least that was what was supposed to happen, but when Emma wakes up the next morning, she discovers that something went very wrong with the plan.
Every Day I Write The Book by msgenevieve
"I’m in the book now." To say that a lot has happened tonight is something of an understatement, but Emma is determined to make it all fit together on the same page. (Post-322. The title is stolen from the amazing Elvis Costello and one of the best songs ever written.)
Five Times Emma Kisses Killian and One Time She Does Something Else by jncar
Emma and Killian share a series of romantic moments in the midst of the struggle to defeat the witch. Season 3B speculation with a bunch of making out.
I've got her (and she's got me) by emmaofmisthaven
If there are ‘abort mission’ signs above her head, Neal choses to ignore them. The fool. “You can’t trust him. He’s a… a pirate.” “Yeah, well, he’s my pirate, so…”
Lovestoned by jaegermighty
"I have never seen so many naked people in my life," Emma says.
Off Limits by headoverhook 
She had always been like a little sister to him. Until the day she came back from college and everything changed. Best friend's sibling AU.
Shawn Hunter/Cory Matthews/Topanga Lawrence
it's been waiting for you by grim_lupine
After that Christmas that made him realize he wasn’t just affecting himself by running away for months and years at a time, Shawn isn’t really surprised when they all end up back in bed together months later. He wasn’t expecting it, wouldn’t let himself hope for it, but it feels as easy as it’s ever been to follow Cory and Topanga where they lead, wherever they’ll have him.
It’s been years since they last did this, and even that time had been years after he’d told himself it was the last time, the natural end to things, and found that it was easier to make that resolution than it was to follow it.

Topanga knew a long time before Cory and Shawn figured it out.
All you know (all you need to know) by lakester
Cory was always going to marry Topanga Lawrence. Cory was always going to know Shawn Hunter. Cory was always going to love them both.
Jane Foster/Darcy Lewis/Thor
Selfie by engmaresh 
hey mom, Darcy writes one day in a Facebook private message. That’s the only way to guarantee her mom will see it. i’m dating my boss and a norse god. love, me.
Her mom's reply? Pics or it didn’t happen. :)
Until by gala_apples 
Darcy’s not stupid. She’s fallen for straight women before, and it’s never worked. She knows her crush on her sorta-boss, sorta-friend isn’t going to go anywhere. Until it does.
Jane refuses to be the media’s stereotype of a bisexual woman. She loves women, and she loves men, but she’s never cheated. She doesn’t need both at the same time. Until she does.
Thor can’t be the perfect prince. In Asgard stable relationships are full relationships, those of three or more. He can fight for his land, but he can’t have a family. Until he does.
All I want for Christmas is You by lunaemoth 
Christmas morning in London: croissants, kisses and promised gifts. Darcy can't complain.

Peggy Carter/Daniel Sousa
I'll Be Seeing You by Eienvine
Someday he'll get past this phase where everything reminds him of her, he's sure; he just doesn't know when. What he does know is that it clearly takes more than four weeks to get over Peggy Carter.
Nice Guys Finish Strong by charleybradburies
The way to a man's heart is through his stomach.
Answering the Call by charleybradburies
If there's one thing about Jack Thompson that will never change, it's that he enjoys meddling in business that isn't really his. And if there's one thing about Daniel Sousa that will never change, it's that he's only a phone call away.
Christmas Present by Paeonia
Peggy and Daniel's first Christmas/holiday season together, when they're still very new and awkward in their relationship. In addition, maybe have the fic explore another milestone (first I love you? first time meeting parents/family/friends?). I generally prefer fluff, and would at the very least like a happy ending.
Balancing Act by Yalu
"You know," she said as lightly as she could, "I don't think I'll be able to get home tonight."
An Undercover Affair by keysburg
“But this deep cover mission will still be difficult. You know I don’t have a problem using people’s expectations against them. I’ve done it to you, even. However, it is one thing to do that briefly, and it is another to live a life that’s more or less the antithesis of everything I am. I am an agent, not a homemaker. And it is hard to see this as anything but the SSR telling me to learn my place."
Ethan Chandler/Vanessa Ives
I’m a tree that grows hearts; one for each that you take by diggingthegrave
Last episode Vanessa told Ethan she hasn't liked trees since the cut-wife's death and I think after having chopped down the specific offending tree that Ethan should decide to change her mind about that with some forest loving, maybe the morning after their heated kiss...kind of a what happened in the woods before the walk down the road?
And Would Be Lov'd Fain by Nokomis
He’d expected the rope, and now that he’s alive, exhilaratingly alive and free and breathing in the salty air on the wrong side of the Atlantic, all that Ethan can think of is Vanessa.
