Hamlet/Kings crossover (Temporarily lost my mind. Be back shortly.)

[all_my_fandoms]

Tonight roga and I watched the play Hamlet with an actor who... was so remarkably like Jack, from Kings, we couldn't help but be overwhelmed by the similarities. Both physically and in terms of how he played the character, he really was an alternate version of Jack.

This is not really an explanation for anything, but at some point roga leaned towards me

Oh, DUDE.

That was fast and unexpected. (Also omg you wrote a crossover. Again.

The sky was gray with clouds, the air chilly, as though before a storm.

Lol, this is Scandinavia, obviously the dream sequence would seem like a Bergman film.

abandoned by all the world

Aww! Poor emo boys. "You cannot, sir, take from me anything that I will more willingly part withal - except my life". *pats*

short blond hair? What the hell?

LMAO.

"Or is it you're in mine?" The other prince - Hamlet, sounded like an omelet - said.

OMG. The whole sequence is so funny and charming and wonderfully Stoppardesque. ♥ ♥ ♥.

Something glistened at the corners of Hamlet's eyes. "What mad world is this where a healthy man must pretend to be unhinged, commit unnatural acts, twist himself and disguise himself as though his mind and body were not his own, just to achieve what heaven deems as righteous. To see justice served and things put in their right place."
AWWWWWW! OKay, it's a good thing I

[miarr]

I feel so lucky to have seen the play, even if it was two years ago or so. That way I can comment on this piece of total awesome!

roga has already said most everything worth saying, of course, so I will only add this:

Something about Hamlet's words, his heavy silence and averted gaze… Jack found that his own eyes began to prickle.

OH GOD, THEIR EYES. THE PERPETUAL STATE OF NEAR-CRYING. AHAHAHA THIS WAS SO AWESOME AND HILARIOUS, I ~DYED LAUGHING~ OKAY. If these two should ever set up a band it would probably be a toss-up on the name-"The Princes" if they wanted to go mainstream, but for a more alt-rock scene, "The Malfunctioning Tearducts".

Kudos for major speedwriting abilities, bb. I LOVE THIS FIC FOREVER. ♥ ♥
