Comrades Abroad - Fandom: Othello
Apr. 27th, 2016 09:28 pmI wrote a thing. In somewhat shaky iambic pentameter (or..pentameter at least)
Title: Comrades Abroad
Ship: (unrequited) Iago/Othello
Fandom: Shakespeare's Othello
Summary:
A queer reading of the text 'Othello' can be taken in two ways- firstly, that Othello himself presents very much the type of machoistic man who, at the time of Shakespeare, could potentially be more interested in the company of men. OR, secondly, that Iago's schemes stem from a confused lust and hatred for Othello in equal terms.
This is simply a suggestion based on the latter reading, set as if it were a prequel to the events within the play itself.

*dances off to contemplate a part 2 to try and get people to stop solliloquising and start shagging*
