#julius ceasar shakespeare

Young Brutus and Cassius. Inspired by a fan fiction I’ll probably never finish but I’m TRYING!!!

[cabbihugger]

Caesar. Is. A. Man. Whore.

Yup.

[weaponizedducks]

i relate to shakespeare because all of his protaganists are gay as fuck

[twink-gods-and-olive-oil]

I ship them

[honeywithrose]

listen i love a brutus genderbend as much as anyone else but y’all are sleeping on genderbent cassius

[vaguelyhumanshapedbeing]

big fan of when—in Julius Caesar by Shakespeare—Cassius says “let’s not be so brutal when killing Caesar that we establish sympathy for absolute power. Also, let’s make sure every knows that MARK ANTONY is our leader, he’s the one who can save the republic!” Apollo did not bestow the gift of prophecy that day

[iampresent]

The only objectively correct staging of Julius Ceasar is one where Brutus is wearing a Trophy Husband Crop Top the whole time.

[shoobie-doobie]

Omg it's March!!! You know what that means!!!

[dropinart]

current WIP I’m working on! Cassius being a romantic (?) little creep and caressing Brutus’ statue at night. We’ve all been there…he would’ve loved Instagram stalking

Like I posted, I won’t be able to draw for the next 4-6 months due to inflammation that needs real rest (I’ve been ignoring it for too long) but I still wanted to give yall at least smt.

[quotes-by-dilanka]

There is a tide in the affairs of men Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune; Omitted, all the voyage of their life Is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat; And we must take the current when it serves, Or lose our ventures.

― William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar

I wonder why I’m single and then I look down at the fact that I’m two and a half hours into a Caesar script with fem Caesar as a vampire-

I need a fucking boyfriend lol.

[dearest-lady-disdain]

at least half of shakespeare's plays would work great if the production was set it a gay bar

[viiinz]

I fucking love characters who are just little schemers, talking shit behind everyone's back, envious little creatures, here to gossip, here to manipulate, and here to stir things up <3

I always read that soliloquy in Damian Lewis's voice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q89MLuLSJgk

listen up chucklefucks, i just gotta say. I'm not defending zir, but I'm sad zie deactivated. Like, i get that trauma lasts a long time and the good stuff is maybe easy to forget?? so maybe it's just like that. And my beloved mutual @/pompeyspuppygirl made a post about zir clout chasing behavior, which is pretty shitty behavior if it's true (and if we're canceling someone it had better be pretty severe). anyways now that zie's gone pompeyspuppygirl said it was okay to make this post (again, thanks ppg everyone go follow her --really everyone in this whole drama is worth a follow)

ANYways yeah zie was my mutual and like, reblogged a lot my smaller posts. (that isn't to discredit what my mutual pompeyspuppygirl is saying about zie clout chasing ofc). AND idk zie was always reblogging art from new and undiscovered artists and reblogging donation posts (which if you don't know is really bad if you're trying to clout chase...) (again, though, ppg is my mutual i believe her.) and like, remember on valentines day i tried to blaze zir posts and zie told me to stop because zie didn't want the posts to go viral? (but again ppg is my mutual and has a lot of proof in the Google doc I'm not trying to disprove that I'm just saying what else I know)

Idk, like i feel like a lot of people loved zir's blog a while back, bc like zie DID make some good posts?? So idk why everybody's acting like they aren't even a little bit sad.,. like ngl this feels like maybe all the reasonable people left to Twitter and all the Twitter refugees who love drama came here??? shdfhhdhdhdhdh haha but idk...look idk, i just, julie i do miss you. idk. more thoughts later sorry I'm getting worked up shshs

"Cry 'Havoc,' and let slip the dogs of war!" Julius Ceasar 1953

O, pardon me, thou bleeding piece of earth, That I am meek and gentle with these butchers! Thou art the ruins of the noblest man                                                          1485 That ever lived in the tide of times. Woe to the hand that shed this costly blood! Over thy wounds now do I prophesy,— Which, like dumb mouths, do ope their ruby lips, To beg the voice and utterance of my tongue—                                           1490 A curse shall light upon the limbs of men; Domestic fury and fierce civil strife Shall cumber all the parts of Italy; Blood and destruction shall be so in use And dreadful objects so familiar                                                                   1495 That mothers shall but smile when they behold Their infants quarter'd with the hands of war; All pity choked with custom of fell deeds: And Caesar's spirit, ranging for revenge, With Ate by his side come hot from hell,                                                       1500 Shall in these confines with a monarch's voice Cry 'Havoc,' and let slip the dogs of war; That this foul deed shall smell above the earth With carrion men, groaning for burial.

Act III, Scene 1
