Mhm currently writing a Mercutio fic where it’s Romeo and Juliet in a modern setting, Capulets and Montegues are rival gangs. The story is from Benvolio’s prospective. When Mercutio gets injured defending Benvolio after Tybalt’s transphobic remarks Benvolio decides to load the passed out Mercutio into his car to run away and fake his death so they can live in peace away from his family’s rivalry.
I feel so bad for my English teacher bc this is not what I was meant to get from the Romeo and Juliet unit.

There is nothing better than a cheese tour through time and space except. . .
It's cover reveal day for @ellebeaumontbooks & I's first co-author project Benvolio & Mercutio Turn Back time!
Tumblr media
BLURB:
Verona has 99 problems—including a time machine.
All Benvolio has ever desired is a peaceful life alongside his spirited—albeit quarrelsome—roommate, Mercutio. But as the story goes, the course of true love never did run smooth, and when tensions between the Montagues and the Capulets reach a boiling point, Benvolio and Mercutio are dragged into the mess Romeo makes of all their lives.
Then an older version of Benvolio crashes into their lives, offering the opportunity to change fate, Mercutio does as he always does—seizes the chance. There's just one problem: no deal is without strings, and this one involves a deadly secret that Mercutio is determined to take to the grave.
What follows is a lively adventure through the ages, replete with love and heartache. Amidst the chaos, this inseparable duo will unravel the true depth of their friendship.
A riotous romp of a retelling of Romeo & Juliet. Side effects of reading may contain laughter, heartache, and a need for more. This light, sci-fi fantasy is the perfect shelf companion to The Queer Principles of Kit Webb by Cat Sebastian, Something Fabulous by Alexis Hall, and The Gentle Art of Fortune Hunting by KJ Charles.
Publication day: July 31, 2024
Genre: Adult Sci-fi Fantasy Romcom
Tropes: Friends to Lovers, time travel, retelling, and they were roommates, deal with the devil

thinking about productions of shakespeare plays where there is exactly one character who knows theyre in a play. benvolio with his "we talk here in the public haunt of men .. here all eyes gaze on us" right before mercutio dies. he knows something is wrong before it happens, and when it does happen he knows only worse will come, so he disappears. he stayed only to try to save mercutio, and he couldnt, so he leaves. he survives the play. the same with horatio, often the voice of reason, staying only to save hamlet from his fate. in the end he is, as is benvolio, alone. but he survives. in a way the plays are about them. in a way this is their story. the only ones alive to tell it

Quand Mercutio nous chantait "la vie est belle" Moi, j'y croyais...
This one goes out to the absolutely wild hairstyle choices they subjected Cyril Niccolai to during the 2010 revival.

Juliet: What are you getting Benvolio for the holidays?
Mercutio: I don't know. It's kind of hard buying a gift for your partner when they already got everything they could've ever wanted when they married you. So I'm not sure yet.
Romeo: I'm getting Benvolio a divorce lawyer.
