I Love This Thank You So Much For Sharing!!!! Not Only Is This Super Interesting And Important Queer

I love this thank you so much for sharing!!!! Not only is this super interesting and important queer german history, but its also good to know that i had something going when first saw his Mephisto and my first thought was “drag queen” ;)

So in the 1960 movie adaptation of Goethe’s play “Faust”, they chose to give the devil Mephistopheles a very different look than how he’s usually portrayed.

Here are a few images of what Mephisto is usually shown as looking like:

so just your very average looking devil/demon figure with a hat, you know?

But here’s what Mephisto looked like in the 1960 version:

For The Prompt Ice

for the prompt ‘ice’

“Lord Eddard Stark dismounted and his ward Theon Greyjoy brought forth the sword. “Ice,” that sword was called.”

“Lord Eddard had tried to play the father from time to time, but to Theon he had always remained the man who’d brought blood and fire to Pyke and taken him from his home. As a boy, he had lived in fear of Stark’s stern face and great dark sword.”

absolutely amazed by this introductory scene with ned having theon carry the sword Ice & how initially you think nothing by it & it’s only later, on rereading maybe, that the situation really hits.

day 6 of a week of theon !
