    Summary

    omfd in the plot of macbeth. thats it thats the fic.

    currently a wip that stemmed from my absolute need for people to understand that izzy IS lady macbeth

    rated m becasue there'll probably be gore and there will be abusive edizzy (but the latter not until like at least chapter 4)

    adding tags as i go which means all sorts of crazy shit might be coming so i'm really sorry about that

    chapters are short becasue that's how shakespeare did it (and i'm lazy)

    you do NOT need to have read macbeth to understand this fic

    from the blurb of my (very battered) copy of macbeth:
    "Shakeapeare's blood-soaked drama of murder, madness and the uncanny begins as Macbeth is promised a golden future as ruler of Scotland by supernatural forces. Spurred on by his wife, he murders the king to ensure his ambitions come true. But he soon learns the meaning of terror - killing once, he must kill again and again, while the dead return to haunt him. Macbeth is an anatomy of fear and a bleak portrayal of what some will do to achieve their desires."

    Summary

    Ronin’s smile falters, just slightly. “Curtain’s almost up, love. Don’t make me go without a goodbye.” Valentin doesn’t answer. He just stands. The bulb flickers, and the reflection stutters — two figures caught between acts, between mercy and murder.

    Blackout. Valentin knows this is his time to shine, to finish his personal story instead of just Lady Macbeth’s. He’d have some time until Ronin went back on stage after him, anyways. Maybe he could leave. Maybe he’d stay, he’d scream, play up the role of Lady Macbeth the way Ronin played Macbeth himself.

     

    Day 24 of Rottober.
    Prompt: 'Showtime'.

    Summary

    She fled the Red Keep with a burned man and a name that no longer kept her warm.

    Now the North whispers her name in the leaves. The old gods watch. The dead remember.

    Fire follows her. Snow crowns her. And the wheel begins to crack.

    She never asked to be a queen. But prophecy doesn’t ask. It hungers.

    Summary

    In the land of the Mainlanders, a peaceful real estate agent lives alone in the beautiful town of Riverside. His life includes looking way too professional, endless nights of closing deals and getting paid hefty sums of money from his clients. However, when he realizes that he has nothing to wear to work today, he finds a tailor—one with the same name as him by chance—to fix his suits. As they interact, react and can't help but fall in love, it's up to this real estate agent to explain who he is, and why he is here.

    Summary

    This is a prequel to the original play, following a young Macbeth as he competes in a tournament organised by King Duncan to crown a 'King of Thanes'. The tournament is held in fun, but Macbeth, as the ambitious young man he is, takes it entirely seriously and undergoes somewhat of an ego-death, after losing to Banquo. Basically, this text explores the birth of Macbeth's slow-burn ambition.

    Please note this text is in script formatting, as well as being akin to Shakespeare's original rhythm and flow of writing.

    Summary

    Macbeth x Kamikaze: A great way to mainly revise Kamikaze. Packed from the nave to the chaps with Kamikaze quotes (and a few Macbeth's quotation). This is probably the only fanfiction I will write that is based on poetry because who wants to write about a literal stature and a boat? so please enjoy.
    Note that there might be inaccurate historical context I apologize for that.
    Lady Macbeth is the wife.
    The dead child from Macbeth is the daughter from Kamikaze.
    Banquo and Macduff is the other soldiers who used to be Macbeth's friend.

    Summary

    Gotham was a place of tragedy; scum and villainy were rampant and everyone has a sob story.

    Everyone knows Bruce Wayne's tragedy - the death of the old regime and the age of "civilized" crime that came with it.

    Exceptionally few know about the tragedy of the man who kicked it off. In fact only one remains who knows the full story - our Narrator of this Story is Jim Gordon, and this is the tale of his once dear friend whom he called "Belloch" but most called Joe Chill.

    ==

    AKA Joe Chill is Macbeth, Jim Gordon is Banquo and Gotham is center stage.

    Summary

    When sleep took her, she dreamed of him, arise,
    Clawing his way up from the grave’s cold dark,
    His fingers reaching for her, drenched in blood,
    The same dark stain that now marked her own hands stark.
