Okay but can we all collectively agree that Peter Sullvian's Ascanio Sforza in The Borgias always seems to be only one step away from glancing at the camera like he's in The Office?

16th century italian tumblr bloggers were out there like 'omg when orlando regains his sanity and never atones for his murders EXCEPT then two canti later he literally is forced to witness the unjust and cowardly slaughter of his best friend in the most pointless and sudden way its about the parallels its about the horror and futility of war its about the thin line between love and fury and madness its about conversion not being enough to save gridando piangendo rimettando'

Reading Dan Brown’s Angels and Demons rn, I’m pretty sure this guy did no research

#The current Catholic image of God the father as an old guy with a long flowing white beard comes from…Zeus?????? #what? #no #i mean yeah he’s got a beard but he’s generally depicted as young and his beard is not that long #at least from what i’ve seen of images of him from antiquity #also cursory glance at wikipedia tells me that a) god wasn’t depicted until sometime around the italian renaissance #so after catholocism had been firmly established in europe #and b) the depiction is based off a verse in the bible #and yeah it’s a fictional book it has no obligation to be based in fact #but come on here #also add the illuminati to conspiracies that turn out to be anti-semetic #boy this novel #like yeah it is kinda fun ridiculous fluff #but man you have to overlook a lot #book tag #personal

NYC graffiti

-

The vandalized state sign in New Jersey

Ngl, when I saw ‘teetles’ written in an official tmnt series, I actually screamed out loud.

Rooftop tags reading ‘Yokai’ and ‘Hidden City’

Come on guys, you’re not even trying to be subtle. Also, weirdly, what I think is ‘Giotto’, aka another italian renaissance painter.

‘Space magic’ in the alley across from the foot shack

The Dragons’ impressive commitment to tagging every square inch of their space with ‘Dragons’

Señor Hueso has a map of the labyrinth carved on his wardrobe

(As well as a glass of Todd’s lemonade on the desk.)

More of the boys’ tic-tac-toe boards in the surrounding sewers

Repo’s scrapyard is painted with ‘Shredder’, ‘Rocksteady’, and ‘Bebop’

About 80% of the street graffiti in this show is just cheeky references to tmnt villains. These ones get the spotlight because they’re my favorite.

listen. listen, there's a kind of intimacy in having a dedicated rivalry, okay. who else is going to know you like this!!! also it's funny

Ascanio Maria Sforza: la parabola politica di un cardinale-principe del Rinascimento, Marco Pellegrini

Julius II: The Warrior Pope, Christine Shaw

and on della rovere’s soldier comment:

Popes, Cardinals and War: The Military Church in Renaissance and Early Modern Europe, D.S. Chambers

and finally! regarding the delightful Mess of political-family relationships, including the marriage comment (altho the montefeltro family that giovanni married into did have sforza family ties, since giovanna's mother was battista sforza, but this is about the more immediate alliance based relationship and della rovere's hand in the rejection of a milanese match for his brother. and. this is not even remotely a serious comic, but now I am once again thinking about insular all these families are. the fucking medicis are here too, if you go half a step to the left on della rovere's family tree)

Julius II: The Warrior Pope, Christine Shaw

Giulio II, Il papa del Rinascimento, Giulio Busi (Bianca Maria Visconti is Ascanio's mom. btw)

#weeping. ascanio's dialogue covers up della rovere's sleeve collar. i spent all that time drawing details on it and FOR WHAT #(it was fun) #there was another deleted bit where ascanio has some petty line like 'i bet arguing makes you hard' but then i realized #that's something that lucullus would probably say to crassus and also i need to set that line up for ascanio #we gotta. we gotta character build (lays down face in the ground) we have to provide the character set up for it #it's really more of a line for cesare to drop at some point over how much rodrigo and ascanio argued #shout out to the time rodrigo threatened to throw ascanio into the tiber river or that time ascanio like. decided to physically get into #a fight with juan borgia #and they were still gambling partners after that????? damn okay. sometimes the vice chancellor can be (checks note) im not finishing #that statement #komiks tag #italian renaissance tag #ascanio sforza #giuliano della rovere #i WILL get a relationship dynamic tag for them once i can figure out something punchy and fun. anyway! #ehgh.

Ok so I finally finished asking my mum about the characters fashion I'll ask my aunt about it another time, first I'd like to state that unlike my aunt who does fashion history as a job(there's probably an actual name to the job I just don't know it) this is just a hobby for my mum, also that both of them specialize in women's fashion

here's what my mum had to say on each of them

Sariel- mostly modern (boots, pants, belts) slightly 17hundrends, the knotwork on his jacket(?) Seems military inspired

Jin- looks like he's wearing jeans, good shoes, late Victorian and his shirt & tie looks 1920s

Chevalier- modern take on cavalier(16 hundreds)

Gilbert-"oooh oh no it's really looking like a nazi uniform, but his cane is gorgeous" that's all my mum wanted to say about him

Clavis- regency (purple jacket) white jacket looks like a great coat (still worn today most common in late 16 to early 17 hundreds) pants look like modern dress pants

Silvio- buccaneers (16&17 hundreds privateer) shirt regency, "those boots are just a mess"

Leon- "he looks like captain Harlock from albator", modern dress pants, military inspired, jacket looks modern

Keith- Spencer(a type of women's jacket during regency) modern pants looks like it had a fake fall front, looks militarily inspired, waistcoat looks modern

Rio- outfit one(commoner) "can be anywhere from modern to Victorian, so just generic"

outfit two(attendant) Victorian evening wear "oh that's a gorgeous tail coat!"

Outfit three (prince) button up looks Victorian enough, modern dress pants with a fall front, the tail of his jacket look like court wear from Louis the 14th, looks like he's wearing a jabot (necktie(not a modern one though))

Yves- waistcoat 1870s evening wear, modern pinstripe dress pants, look like cavalier boots but too short, Italian Renaissance linen shirt

Licht- modern pants, military inspired "its a mess"

Nokto- fancy trench coat, sleeveless tail coat??? Modern waiste coat, 1970s button up shirt & tie, modern dress pants, modern shoes

Luke- looks like he's dressed in knit fabrics (modern) pants look like jeans

Overall she said that all of them look to be wearing modern pants

I hope you guys don't mind being tagged @fang-and-feather @lorei-writes @sh0jun

so, for example, i'm an art historian who focuses on italian renaissance/baroque art, but my interest in heta characters is mostly eastern europe, so my Academic Interests don't really intersect much with my Fandom Interests

───── ⋆⋅⛧⋅⋆ ─────

The scream of life anew rang out through Hell, it’s citizens fast asleep. There were sounds of terror, utter violence, and chaos every day in the realm, but this call was different. It was one of the beginning, a new morning still hanging on to the last dregs of nightfall as the first beckons of the day called for the denizens of the newly established kingdom to rise.

But there were a select number of demons and hellborns, even a few sinners, darting about the castle, running rampant for her.

That was the consensus anyway - the entire nine months had gone by with such little chatter of the infant’s sex. Was it a boy, a principe, or a girl, their new principessa?

The couple had strategically kept hushed voices around such topics. The fear of a holy curse from the Almighty for Lilith’s autonomy and grand escape had not so easily been dismissed. Truly, the early residents of Hell were among the first of the damned; the threats of Elohim were to be feared.

But all had not been lost in terror, because the joyous hour had been thrust upon them; each labor contracting like a knife to Lilith’s torso as her hand tightly wrapped along the silks of the bed she was lying on.

Lucifer watched, Lilith's fingers gripping his as though he was entrapped in a vice, sensing her heartbeat. Such divine abilities had not been lost to him after the Great Fall and her soul was burning, singing with urgency. Fear, delight, pain - most noticeable unto his dismay - but the strongest projected utter joy.

She cursed in the tongue of man, the pronunciation so distinct, and the midwife called for further assistance, for one more unbearable motion:

and the cry rang out, the newborn as porcelain as her father’s skin, while the assistants declared to the room that a principessa had been born.

Lilith's grip never softened, but tears filled her eyes, and the child wiped clean, was placed onto her chest, her free hand immediately cradling the head and neck of their daughter.

“Oh Lilith…” Lucifer whispered after a second of awe, as his wife’s heavy breaths slowed ever slightly. He moved in closer to her, now lying beside her on the mattress, and was entranced by the feeling that was entrapping him.

No, it was so freeing.

“She's beautiful,” he murmured, wanting to simply brush away the damp curls plastered to her forehead, the downy hair looking so soft. But as his fingers moved slightly, he immediately retracted, a sense of wonder overtaking him.

She was alive, an act of creation. Oh, how could we understand what it was like to be Adonai when creation simply existed, the act of making, becoming, and loving within us all?

Lilith trembled slightly, tracing the cheeks of their daughter as tears fell down her face. “I love her,” she whispered, her intention so bright. “She's… she's here, my love, with us.”

“She looks like you,” Lucifer said, leaning into his wife as the midwives left the room for a moment of their privacy and to clean their necessities before returning. “Her nose. And see,” he pointed gently, “my god, she has your eyes.”

She looked at him, curious for a moment, her face still slightly perspired from the endeavor. “My eyes? They're clearly yours.”

“My color,” he amended, moving in to wipe the tears away from his Queen’s face, “but your shape. Your eyelashes too, they're barely open.”

“She can hardly see us,” she replied, turning back to him. “You like my eyes?”

“I love your eyes,” he breathed, wrapping an arm around her shoulders and pressing his lips into hers, gently, the salt of the earth on her skin and their admiration vivid.

She pulled away, resting her head along his collarbone, looking back down at their child. Her small hands reached up towards her parents and squeezed in a reflex around nothing. “What shall we call her?”

Lucifer was taken aback, confused at her question. “You want me to decide?”

“You're an angel, the divine, Luce. To have come from Heaven is a gift, and there are some things even I don't understand about true makerism.”

“We are her creators, mia Regina,” Lucifer said, biting down on the inside of his cheek in a moment of clarity. “Equals, remember? The Garden had nothing and you prevailed regardless.”

“She'll never have to see that place,” Lilith whispered, a sudden note of bitterness in her voice. “She'll understand autonomy and love here with us.”

They were silent for a while, both staring at the baby that lay in her arms. Such a tiny thing, a helpless and sudden arrival into their lives never to be expected.

“Charlotte,” Lilith said after a moment. “I like Charlotte.”

The bright eyes of their girl met with Lucifer’s, and the surety of his life was benign, truly necessary, and wonderful. “Principessa Charlotte, heir to the throne of Hell, tesorina.”

“Our daughter,” Lilith said softly, tracing the outline of her cheek with the side of her hand. The final ordainment felt personal like it was somehow more important than any royal title.

“Our daughter,” Lucifer agreed, letting out a breath he hadn't realized he'd been holding.

His wife looked at him with a sense of amazement, like she'd found something that had never been known before. “Would you like to hold her?” She asked, lifting her - Charlotte - up to him slightly.

He opened his mouth to reply, but the words had died on his tongue. “I don't… I want to-”

“It's okay,” she cut him off, her voice soft. “It's gonna be alright, you know this.”

Lucifer hesitated, then moved his arms under Lilith’s as she passed the child into his arms. “She’s there,” she whispered, “all she's ever known is love.”

He felt tears slowly falling upon his waterline and down his cheeks, over the rosy circles - Charlotte had them as well - and she squirmed for a moment before settling, his hand under her head and the other along her back.

“Hey Charlie,” he murmured, the name still so new, this principessa new, and it was all so overwhelmingly wonderful. “Welcome home to the Underworld.”
