everyone is always fighting and hurting each other. i will put an end to this through conquest and subjugation

i know the way people talk about their pets now is probably how we’ve been doing it for all of history. a cat owner in ancient rome saw their cat lounging on the dining pillows and commented “he thinks himself to be the senator claudius 🤣”

i wish there was a way i could get more friends to read the lymond chronicles but the pitch is truly like "...are you prepared for six books of about 600 words each, filled with dense prose, political complexities, multiple points-of-view (none of them actually the hero, mind), several languages including the dead versions of modern ones, and obscure classical literary references? there's also rampant bisexuality, swashbuckling, cross-dressing, and painful amounts of whump. if you've ever loved lawrence of arabia this series is for you."

i think peak historical fiction is when there is a random ass major historical figure but as a comedic relief side character. like geoffrey chaucer being a naked gambling addict in a knight’s tale or leonardo da vinci being cinderella’s fairy godmother in ever after. like. nothing can top that.
