there's something so real about having read up on a specific period of history enough that you're starting to get your own niche faves. you read or watch anything about tudor england and have that bright blorbo-like moment of 'awww look it's my good good friend french-speaking ambassador to england from the holy roman empire eustace chapuys! <3' recognition

#he's here to write catty letters call anne boleyn vile things and complain about the british climate! <3<3<3 #I take it his correspondence is a really important source because homeboy pops up everywhere #I suppose it's stretching it a bit to call him niche considering that but I just find him so fucking funny. so much work and so little done #read 'young damned and fair' earlier this year and I think that's where it really settled in haha. he's just such a lil guy (historical)#I think the author of that book also has a place in his heart for him he's only comes up briefly but he's so clearly sketched out #he and cromwell were neighbours and apparently kind of friends. imagine.
