    Summary

    "I do not think you have been eating enough." Vincent delivers this as if it is a simple fact, no judgement, but Thomas still burns. He feels like a child; he is a child. Under Vincent’s gaze his self-sacrifice is stripped of its purity, its nobility, down to the bare bones. Pathetic.

    “I do not have much of an appetite, these days.”

    “I cannot accept that.” Vincent’s voice is polite yet inflexible. “This papacy, as troubling as it may be to you, will last as long as God sees fit – and who can ever know His ways? Do not tell me you intend to go hungry all year.”

    “And if I did?”

    “Then I would feed you.” Vincent gestures to the tray. “With my own hands, if that was what it took.”

    A thousand different emotions course through Thomas, shame, irritation, wonder, want – he shrinks away from this but it is there, undeniable and pulsing like the beat of his heart. He has only ever felt Vincent’s hand against his, or on his arm. What would it feel like against his lips? What would it feel like to take whatever Vincent wanted to give him?

    (Chapter Four: In which wounds begin to heal, confessions are made, and a long-buried secret comes to light...)

    Summary

    Tedesco is a patriarch, unrelenting, stuck in the past, cherries and booming voice preceding his appearance.

    There’s nothing soft or gentle about him, and sometimes Aldo does wonder—had there been a time when it hadn’t been so? Had he always been so strict, so angry? Had he ever been sweet?

    He looks up, takes in the cold walls, closes his eyes, tries to feel His presence.

    He doesn’t.

     

    Aldo Bellini and Goffredo Tedesco drive down to Matera, the Patriarch's hometown.

    In the city of stones, nothing ever really changes.

    Summary

    Conclave 2024 but make them musicians (and managers) and make them take part in Festival di Sanremo.

    Tedesco, one of the most famous Italian singers, is planning on making a comeback after a six year hiatus. His manager and friend Vincent Benitez suggests he takes part in Festival di Sanremo. Tedesco relents but he has some opinions and he will make them everyone's problem. Especially when a certain American rock band, The Cardinals, are invited as special guests.

    Summary

    Blood. On his cassock?

    He turned with effort, and then he saw it: a red, wet stain, spreading mercilessly over the white fabric, right on the lower back. The contrast was brutal, almost obscene. Sacred cloth, stained by something so human, so fragile, so alarming.

    Summary

    Pope Innocent XIV has invited the clergy to a Synodal Council in order to determine the direction of the Church under his leadership. As some of his fellow Cardinals come together at the Vatican once more, Aldo Bellini is suffering from a headache that threatens to turn into a fullblown migraine attack.

    Unfortunately, his biggest opponent has arrived from Venice as well. While Tedesco seems to be in the mood for their usual dispute, Bellini questions his life choices as he tries to avoid showing himself vulnerable in front of the Patriarch.

    Summary

    Vincent Benítez has far more radical thoughts about priestly chastity than Thomas Lawrence had expected.

    Or: Ah, fuck you calling me Holy Father like it doesn’t turn you on just to say it.

      Bookmark Notes:

      Aldo rolls his eyes. “You know perfectly well what I’m asking. I am asking whether the Pope knows that the Vatican is full of flaming homosexuals.” Aldo illustrates this with a flick of the wrist. His hand gestures always become more effusive when he discusses this particular topic.

      Thomas is not a fool. He knows well how men in the Vatican behave. Most of the Curia are gay, whether or not they would dare to use the term. It is a certain sort of man who is attracted to a life cloistered among men. It provides a neat explanation for why one is uninterested in women. It provides a good excuse to wear wonderful clothes. It pleases one’s mother.

    Summary

    "all the way back to that cursed or blessed night [...] when the magnetic circle of existence had for the first time, simply through banal or pure magic, intercepted the other man’s circle."

    Goffredo Tedesco, chef in five-star restaurant, and Aldo Bellini, professor at a famous university — have been married for ten years, living through male pattern baldness, nicotine-induced erectile dysfunction, and old couple disagreements together. Chapters out of order, with flashbacks ranging from the first kiss and first fight, and other pieces of a 15-year relationship.

    Summary

    You prayed for a Conclave musical? You prayed for singing hot priests? You prayed for bisexual disaster Thomas Lawrence? You prayed for Vincent Benítez to sing? You prayed for steamy sexual tensions between cardinals? Are you praying for Lawrenilli or Lawrenitez?

    This is the first draft of a Conclave parody musical.

    Expect unpolished lyrics that may not yet sensibly align with hypothetical compositions. Subject to evolve.

    Expect songs inspired by Stephen Schwartz, Stephen Sondheim, Maury Yeston, Damon Intrabartolo, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Dave Malloy, and other saints of the musical canon. Expect Prince of Egypt, Bare: A Pop Opera, Comet of 1812, Fun Home, and more.
