I feel obligated to pass along cultural and etymological notes related to pants. The fact that the origin is Venetian is perfect for coincidental biological reasons that will not be explored here.

"Zubon" came to mean trousers from a different path, although it also traces back to Italian along one line.

It's insane that pants were named after a fictional character who wore pants

Another indulgent piece. Dressing up on my characters like a priest, kinda. Cuz for a second I thought there was a beat in the story where they’d have to have him pretend to be a priest

However

The games are to hierarchy we can’t fake that much reputation

Still

Look at my grumpy man. He hates this

Of course they all roll in the grass, it's Italy vs Spain

To me they are both a character archetype that has remained undiscovered/unnamed and underutilized for years

stating to think there’s an inverse correlation between how good media is and how easily fandomizable it is 😁

Agatha Heterodyne is amazing. She has two dead parents and her father was raised to be the ruler of an evil city state with an army of demonic super soldiers super soldiers and a region known as the flesh pits and a reputation of razing Europe to the ground once a generation and he decided to be a hero and single handedly brought peace to a continent that had been destroyed by feuding megalomaniacs for over two hundred years through sheer charisma and brilliance until he mysteriously disappeared fighting a zombie apocalypse, and twenty years later his town is so reformed it's a tourist destination and there's an entire type of commedia del arte troupe modeled after him.

But the narrative actually revolves around her mom.

Izzy is the jester

Julia is the martyr

Roz is the knight

Hedry is the minister

Mika is the alchemist

And Cail is the medium

Evil again about them btw.

Commedia del arte chaos with mistletoe

[savagewildnerness]

“The silent ebb & flow of life without change seemed deadly to me.”

I thought this would be sparse & monotonous… but I found myself absolutely furious! Enraged in the middle of it. I didn’t plan it. It just happened. And because that happened, I decided to add a tiny amount of the bliss Lestat must’ve felt when on stage with the Commedia del Arte troupe he ran away with at 16… before returning to this deadly Sisyphusean existence…

Gosh... at first I thought - @toriangeli’s exquisite Rockstar Lestat isn't so apt for this improvisation in fact... but perhaps he is... as how happy would young-Lestat be to know of his existence? Or perhaps he'd be horrified by this futuristic monster?

You know when Lestat says his running away without telling Gabrielle and it being the first time he’d truly upset her… and after that, she touches his shoulder (a gesture so remarkable to 16-year-old Lestat! How starved of touch must he have been his whole life?!) And Gabrielle makes more of an effort to talk to Lestat for a while, though it is not natural to her to do so…

Well, how much of this is due to her love towards Lestat? How much is due to a sudden terror in her - that Lestat might leave her. Leave her there alone? How much is for herself - to keep him close..?

Why do you think Gabrielle makes more of an effort with Lestat after he runs away with the theatre troupe? More for Lestat or more for herself?

Also, WHY YES, I never knew how to highlight “the important”! Every word is important, surely?! That’s why I am not a words person & generally dude sciencey & music-y things where words are needed less.

Hmmm... what about a Batman Regency au?

The vibe I'd go for is "Hammer Frankenstein meets The Scarlet Pimpernel." Ruffly clothes and glowing beakers of ambiguous science everywhere!

The Bat is not pro-revolution, pro-monarchy, or pro-any country or empire. He rights wrongs no matter the side!

I'm normally not the biggest fan of the Joker, but I think an evil Commedia del Arte troupe would kick ass. Joker and Harley as Harlequin and Columbina!

You know I've got to throw the Scarecrow in here, so he's the anarchist. Similar to the Liberation of the Night in Fallen London, he does not believe that anarchy will lead to a utopia but to a world made democratic in chaos and fear. He was probably at the Villa Diodati and has had an unrequited thing for Mary Shelley ever since.

Selina Kyle is a mistress of disguise. She might be that unaffordable courtesan, that blushing ingenue having her season, or the masked highwayman holding you up, but she'll disappear with your heart and your money in each situation. Bruce disapproves, but doesn't think she should hang for it.

Mentre da giorni è giorni nel nostro Paese si discute sul si o sul no all'uso delle armi in territorio russo (art.8) votato e non votato dai partiti italiani in Europa, nemmeno una parola sull'art. 9, uno degli articoli approvati qualche giorno fa dalla commissione europea.

PD e Fd'I ... a favore

Art. 9 - ....... Ribadisce la sua posizione secondo cui tutti gli Stati membri dell'UE e gli alleati della NATO dovrebbero impegnarsi collettivamente e individualmente a fornire sostegno militare all'Ucraina con almeno lo 0,25 % del loro PIL annuo;

Insomma, mentre in Italia Schlein e PD danno vita a una grande tragedia greca, a una commedia degli equivoci sui soldi da mettere nella sanita' pubblica, rivendicando o rilanciando a secondo di chi parla, poi vanno a braccetto con Meloni votando convintamente 5miliardi l'anno (questo vale lo 0,25%) da dare al governo ucraino per seguitare a fare bangg bangggg coi russi.. A Roma si direbbe "Ao, ma che ce state a cojona' ?" @ilpianistasultetto
