juliet... dost thou want to run away with me? verona is suffocating indeed... let us take our loves and flee.
GOOD TIDINGS, JULIET NATION!
'tis juliet! i am back from the despicable trenches of cosplay and will now be resuming regular updates on me and mine family!
speaking of mine family.... matters have grown tense. the wedding (you knkw, the one regarding me and county paris?) hath kept getting pushed forward days upon days! 'tis leering ever closer you see, and i hate to admit that i am terrified.
in my heart of hearts i love another, and 'tis misery that mine own flesh and blood cannot see such! i have not slept one wink in the face of my marriage, the prospect of being wed to the one who is not mine more mortifying than death himself.
... well that 'twas a bit melancholy! anywho. other than that i be merry. i do hope juliet nation be merry too!
how was the capulet party??
we had to pretend everything was fine in front of the capulets and my family (since paris is sort of a capulet himself now), for if they knew literally any of the things that we do behind their backs, they would punish tybalt and kick us all out (for example, if they knew about juliet and her... secret boyfriend. or if they knew I am on the montagues' side and, um, accompanied by one at the party. good thing they like masquerades and we get to go all together... (kind of symbolic, now that I think about it š«¢)
thou shouldst have come, for the desserts were EVERYTHING. still not better than benvolio's, though š

Min-hee and Ok-ju from Ballerina (2023), and Romeo and Juliet from Romeo + Juliet (1996)
So I noticed a while ago resemblances between Romeo + Juliet (1996) and Ballerina (2023) (in this post) and then I watched the trailer for Romeo + Juliet and thought I'd swap the scenes for some from Ballerina
It's incomplete but here's the result!
