[Video Description: tiktok by JakePhillips116. It shows a white man with a slightly gray brown beard and mustache. He is sitting in a car and wearing a gray t shirt, brown vest, aviator sunglasses, and a baseball cap. The video is captioned "Southern Marc Antony talks at Caesar's funeral". Indeed, he is monologging the first half of the Friends, Romans, Countrymen speech from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar in a gentle southern accent, as thus:
"[Steady in voice] Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears [he takes off the sunglasses with his eyes closed, clears his throat]; [looking towards the crowd] I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him. The evil that men do lives after them [looks to the right briefly]; the good is oft interred with their bones; [softly] so let it be with Caesar. The noble Brutus hath told you Caesar was ambitious [his expression is briefly doubtful before conceding, looking to the left before facing the crowd again]. If it were so, it was a grievous fault; and grievously hath Caesar answered it.
[Looks to the side again] Here, under leave of Brutus and the rest鈥揻or Brutus is an honorable man [assuredly, nodding, looking back to the side before looking down and back to the crowd]; so are they all, all honorable men鈥揷ome I to speak in Caesar's funeral. [Looks away, eyes toward the sky, then gently:] He was my friend [looks down then back], faithful and [shakes head in disbelief] just to me [looks away for a pause]; but Brutus says he was ambitious, and [softly, with a wry smile and an edge to his voice] Brutus is an honorable man. [Looks down then back]
He hath brought many captives home to Rome, whose ransoms did the general coffers fill; did this in Caesar seem [looks from side to side as though trying to find the word] ambitious? When that the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept; [softly] ambition should be made of sterner stuff. [Looks down, then glances to the side then back] Yet Brutus says he was ambitious; [glances down then back at the crowd with a knowing look] and Brutus is an honorable man.
You all did see that on the Lupercal I thrice [flashes three fingers] presented him a kingly crown, which he did thrice [three fingers again] refuse. Was this ambition? [Looks down, shakes his head quickly and softly, sighs deeply, pauses, lip quivers for a very brief moment. Looks back up at the crowd] Yet Brutus says he was ambitious; and sure [pronounced more like "shore". He raises his eyebrows briefly, and his expression is somewhere between wry and a grimace. The next sentence sounds a bit bitter as he leers towards the audience] he is an honorable man. [Pauses, glances down, looks to the side, then slowly back to the crowd, blinking quickly]
[Looks up, turns his head and seemingly absent-mindedly scratches his cheek] I speak not to disprove what Brutus spoke, but here I am to speak what I do know [looks back to the crowd. He pauses. The next few lines are spoken louder, yet still calm. He points accusingly to the audience] You all did love him once, not without cause. [Looks down, then back, now angry] What cause withholds you then to mourn for him? [Looks away in disbelief to the sky] O judgment, thou art fled to brutish beasts, [emphatically] and men have lost their reason!
[He looks down, a few moments pass with him unable to speak, as if he is fighting back grief. He looks to the side and down a few times, as if trying to find meaning. He pinches the bridge of his nose in an attempt to subtly brush away tears. Then his voice is calmer, softer] Bear with me; my heart is in the coffin there with Caesar [looks away briefly, as if self-conscious] and I must pause until it comes back to me." End I.D]
Did my best to get nuances in tone and gesture conveyed. Thanks to @thelittlemisssassypants for gifting the copy of Julius Caesar I read from to transcribe, and to @thetabirb for reading the monolog back to me to make sure I had all the words right!

I think I found my new favorite rabbit hole. This voice actor does Shakespeare scenes in a southern accent and I need to see the whole damn play. Absolutely beautiful
#image described#please please tumblr do not eat this caption 馃檹#i had to watch the video on my laptop then swype it out on my phone in order to be able to go pause and go back and such#for some reason my laptop doesn't like to scroll properly when a tumblr post is up#and mobile doesn't let you control the spot in the video when you're writing a post#so this took a while#ides of march#and I'll miss you Bat

Ahhhhh i am LOVING the streamer AU! i've been reading all your headcanons and theories today and i am just eating it up so thank you sm for the delicious snackies 鉂わ笍 i am obsessed!
Honestly I don't have too much to add as i already love what you have for it! ... my only teeny contribution would be that i do enjoy the idea of there being like, one VERY dedicated fan of both of them who is totally convinced they've discovered the truth of them dating... you know the type! has a tumblr devoted to proving that Crowley & Aziraphale are dating, has all these random, blurry zoomed in screengrabs on twitter with red circles in ms paint, with captions like "PROOF?? #aziracrowisreal"
and then like links to their deep dive analysis video essays on youtube. and of course, it's all wishful conspiracy-theory style spaghetti-noodle logic that nobody believes or takes seriously at all, because like, how on earth could Chaotic Disaster Gremlin even meet (let alone date) Twitch's Favourite Uncle?
anyway the fan with the theory is Furfur, it's obviously Furfur and nobody believes him
(Crowley has seen the tumblr and thinks it's funny... trolls him occasionally if he gets too close with his theorizing.... Aziraphale has no idea and nobody mentions it to him out of respect for his pure sweet soul 馃檹)
PLEASE
I'M WHEEZING FUCKING FURFUR
OF COURSE IT'S FURFUR

[Image Description: a series of manga drawings from a book are of various women.
First page: which is labeled "Extra" and has text in it, but the text is too small to read. It has six sketches of women in it, all of whom are tall, blonde, and lanky. One is of a pale elf girl with pointed ears and long blonde hair and is wearing an olive drab crop top and white short shorts. The second is of human woman with a short bob of disheveled dirty blonde hair, wearing a beige crop top that looks vaguely reminiscent of a bikini, with a matching shirt wrap-around skirt. The third sketch is a black and white of the first elf girl, her brownish crop top the only thing that's colored. She is posing with her hands in front of her exposed stomach and with an alarmed expression on her face. Fourth is of the elf posing in a white sleeveless mini dress. Fifth is a black and white sketch of a headless torso wearing a brown corset-like top and white short shorts. Lastly is a headshot of a simpering woman with ear-length dirty blonde hair, just the top of her heart-shaped dress and long white gloves visible.
Second page: sketches of different woman (and potentially one man since their bare chest isn't censored). There are four full figures, and four sketches of various body parts. The first woman is short and squat with shortish nearly blonde beige hair and pinkish skin, wearing a lopsided black crop top with a single toga-like strap, and black and brown short shorts, and white socks. The second sketch is of an even smaller...pig person? The image is small and the figure is facing away so it's hard to tell. I think they're naked. Third sketch is of a tall and fat pale woman with big ears and dirty blonde hair in a messy ponytail, posing with her hands on her hips. She's wearing a thin green camo tube top over modestly proportional breasts, with slight fat rolls underneath and a large, flabby gut slightly spilling over a lopsided red plaid wrap-around short skirt or kilt. Her thick arms have unidentifiable tattoos, and her feet have short strappy sandals on. Next to her is an even larger figure, the one with no top on, showing modest breast growth partially covered by thick brown chest hair, as well as their naked arms also covered by hair. This figure has very short cropped brown hair and a rough, if cheery looking, face, and is only wearing an olive green kilt adorned with a brown belt, from which hangs a single white and black feather and either four pouches or four fox tails, it's hard to make out.
At the top of the page are the body parts, first of which are thick, brown-colored feet with pale soles. The second is the head of a dark gray-skinned bat- or pig-like person, perhaps an Orc. She has long black hair with large ears poking out, and is facing the left. The second is another, similar animal-like person, this time with a very short crop of greenish-black hair, and is looking partially towards the right. The last drawing is the head of a ruddy-faced person with a large lantern jaw and short brown hair.
Third page: it's all drawings of the pale elf-girl from the first page, wearing a white peasant blouse and blue tight pants. She's in various poses which when put together on the page like that makes it look like she's dancing happily.
Fourth page: five short and squat (Dwarven?) women, four of whom appear to be the same person with shoulder length messy brown hair. In her first sketch, she's wearing a green blouse and beige shorts, and is looking off to the side with a look of disinterest. Next to her is another (potentially Dwarven) woman with longer, light brown hair in two braided pigtails and bangs that cover her eyes. She is wearing a lighter green blouse-like crop top and high-waisted khakis. Both women are wearing simple sandals. At the bottom of the page are three sketches of the first woman, all in different outfits and poses. In one, she's wearing thick, fur-lined orange armor over a basic gray tunic, brown fur-lined pants, and greenish brown boots and brown gloves. She is posed with her finger rubbing along her cold-pinkened nose with a grimace on her face. The next drawing is of her in a yellow tunic with a short, fur-lined red cape and a rust-colored knee-length skirt and white slippers. She's looking forward with a neutral expression. Finally is a sketch of her looking slightly to the left in a simple long, beige nightgown, looking a little pouty.
Fifth and final page: first is of a fat, slightly tan elf with a short red pixie cut and large rounded ears. She is posing on the floor, propped up by one arm with her other hand on her knees, and is wearing a front-laced drab crop top and matching panties, with her slightly flabby stomach exposed. She's looking to the side in annoyance. Second is a black and white sketch of a long haired chubby woman with realistically large breasts. She's sitting down and wearing a halter top and underwear. She has a neutral expression. Third is a color drawing of someone who looks very similar to the first woman on the page, only with dark brown hair and slightly more tanned skin. She is wearing the same color underthings, only now the bra-like top is slightly longer and has straps. She is standing up at an angle with her hand behind her waist as if stretching. She's looking up with a possibly concerned look on her face.
The remaining sketches on the last page are all in black and white. Next is a simplified short and thickly curvy woman with long pale hair and wearing a basic bra and panties. She's waving at the viewer with an excited look on her face. Next is of a more detailed woman who is thick but muscley, with short black side-swept hair and black simple underthings, exposing a well-defined abdomen. She looks somewhere between bored and annoyed as she looks out at you with one hand on her waist. In the middle is a of a short, wide woman with long pale hair wearing a white tube top over her largish yet proportional breasts, and white boy-cut panties. Her eyes are closed and her expression is a bit unreadable. Next is a taller woman, not really fat but more wide than how one often sees women drawn. She has shoulder-length pale hair with a few strands sticking out, wearing a white front-laced crop top and simple drawstring shorts. She is also smiling and waving, perhaps to the first sketch in this row as that's where she is looking. Finally is a very short, concerningly thin body with ribs and hip bone jutting out. She has long wavy pale hair behind her and is wearing a black halter crop top and black boy cut panties. She has an irritated expression on her face. End I.D]
there are 2 kinds of mangaka when drawing: the ones that hate woman and the ones that love woman
And, guys...
i think ryoko kui really loves woman.
