Chasing Love

This is a spin-off of The Tale of Guinevere, about her son CJ and best friend Teddy Lupin.

CJ Diggory-Weasley dreams of finding a love as deep and true as his parents'.

As he grows older and starts school, friendships change, feelings are kept hidden and future ideas shift. Love and heartbreak follow CJ and his friends. Being a teenager is anything but easy. But as long he has his best friend right by his side, he can handle anything. Right?

Arthurian videogames with romances (I added a little rainbow for queer romances options)

(in order of pics above, from left to right, top to borrom)

Secret Kiss with Knight: Otome -> mobile game, classic otome game with pay to unlock extra content. The romance options are Arthur, Merlin, Mordred and Galahad. Not played, so I cannot add any commentary.

Princess Arthur -> another otome mobile game, unfortunately impossible to find if not in Japanese now. Multiple romance options: Tristan, Lancelot, Merlin, Galahad, Mordred (not Arthur's son), Gawain. You play as a female Arthur character. The route are pretty long and complex, and it was set in arthurian times (with other secondary characters like Medraut, Morgause, Kay etc.). Quite good game too.

Choices: Guinevere ️‍🌈 -> free mobile game from "Choices: Stories you play", where you play Guinevere and you can romance Arthur or Lancelot. Arthur and Lancelot are not gender locked so you can choose their gender too. The game is complete and deal with Guinevere romance too, her arrival to Camelot and some strange premonition of danger she is having.

Pendragon Rising ️‍🌈 -> text game from "Choice of Games" (you can also buy it on steam). You play as Arthur (male or female) and you have to consolidate power and save Camelot as Uther is aging. The romance options seem to be Morgana, Emrys and Gawain (their gender seems to be chosen by the player, I am not sure).

The Chronicles of Lancelot ️‍🌈 -> gay (mlm) p0rn game on itch io and steam. THIS IS NOT FOR MINORS. You play as Lancelot, branded as a traitor after Ban has been accused of killing Uther. You go around sleeping with various characters (Kay, Gawain, Arthur, OCs) and trying to find out what happened to Excalibur. I am currently playing it, so I am not completely sure, but it looks like Arthur might be more of a romance option than the rest of the flirting and sleeping with options.

Arthurian Tale: Camelot ️‍🌈 -> ongoing text game by @cain--abel, I have not played it. You can play as any gender and you arrive at Camelot after Uther's death to find out who is the pretender who took the throne (Arthur). The romance options are Kay, Lancelot, Arthur (or Elaine, depending on the gender), Morgana, Lunete. You can play it here.

The Bastard of Camelot ️‍🌈 -> ongoing text game by @llamagirl28 and my favorite arthurian videogame ever. You play as Mordred (any gender) since his early years, meeting Arthur for the first time (and you can also decide how to react to your estranged father) and growing up with your dragon friend. There are multiple romance options: Gawain (Kay's son), Elaine, Galahad, Nimue, Isac (OC), Sophie, Agravaine (not related to Mordred). You can play it here.

A few more mechs doodles/sketches from tonight <333

[queer-ragnelle]

the closest thing to my vision for an arthurian tragicomedy is a knight's tale (2001) which has historical figures but only as gags. like geoffrey chaucer with a gambling problem walking into the story completely naked or the black prince played by james purfoy and an antagonist played by rufus sewell for eye candy. (they both went on to be in arthurian film/shows btw--purfoy as lot in starz camelot (2011) and sewell as mark in trsiatn and isolde (2006))

anyway the soundtrack has queen and david bowie on it, the jousting is fantastic, sir ector is there. bisexual lady blacksmith. poetic dialogue at times while also maintaining a generally light tone, excluding william's misty-eyed return home to his blind father after many years. the depth is there while still being a feel-good film. idk what has happened since then but all "medieval" stories have been so grungy. put the color back in, both narratively and visually.

episode one of my show would address the anachronism head-on. arthur sits down to conduct a meeting of the round table. fumbles the date. he doesn't know the year. does anybody know the year? shrugs and groans resounding. arthur sends someone off to get an answer--that character never returns and it's never mentioned again. creative liberties abound.

morgana was so funny in s2 with her nightmares😭😭 cuz they were never that scary- pretty sure she just wanted gwen to hold her tbh, but she's real for that🙄

[empty-blog-for-lurking]

if i can get even one person to listen to The Mechanisms i would have fulfilled my purpose

[longsightmyth]

If only y'all knew how much it hurts to be so suspicious of anything labeled a 'feminist retelling of arthurian legend'

To be honest I don't like Lancelot

[stabbyapologist]

Now in his castle, you understand that Prince Charming

And Bluebeard

...are the same man. So say you can live like this. Say you love him. Say thank you. Say anything but the truth. What if you can't love him back?

Side by side comparisons of the onscreen characters I’ve made in Artbreeder so far!
