Dear Diary
Day 17 of my exile from Denmark-
My truly loyal friends Rosenstern and Guildencrantz are slowly dragging my pre-deceased corpse to the Denmark border. There, we will book passage to England, and I assume my head will find a lodging in some basket. This fate I accept for myself. Gosenrats and Ruildenstein are much stronger than I, and while they share a half-brain between them, I cannot escape. The fools have already lost twenty or some odd pounds flipping them for bets about whether or not they were in an improbable reality. Any effort is futile now.
Hamlet can be very irritating
Guildenstern: God, Hamlet is driving me insane.
Rosencrantz: He can be quite annoying when he wants to be. Don’t you think Horatio?
Horatio: *studying, distracted* No, no, I love prince Hamlet.
Guildenstern: Well now!
Rosencrantz: I don’t believe we’ve ever heard that before.
Horatio: I mean… I’m sorry, what did you ask me again?
Rosencrantz: If you find Hamlet irritating.
Horatio: No, of course I don’t! I- I enjoy being… around him. Academically, you know, he is always… stimulating.
Rosencrantz:
Guildenstern:
Horatio: Not in the erotic sense of the word!
(Ophelia enters.)
ROS (panic): I can't feel a thing!
GUIL: Give her a pinch!
(Ophelia yelps.)
ROS (laughs): Sorry.
GUIL: Well, that's cleared that up.
(In the third year of Wittenberg university)
Guildenstern: I fucked up.
Rosencrantz: Why? What happened?
Guildenstern: I'm falling for someone.
Rosencrantz: Damn. Must be a special person to make you fall in love.
Guildenstern: *looks at Rosencrantz* Yeah, real special.
A take.
for those who can’t see the picture, it’s a character alignment chart using characters from Hamlet. With the rows and columns put together, it reads thusly:
Bold of you to assume I have dignity - Gertrude
Bold of you to assume I’m straight - Horatio
Bold of you to believe I’ve reached my peak of dumbass - Laertes
How dare you assume I have dignity - Guildenstern
How dare you assume I’m straight - Rosencrantz
How dare you believe I’ve reached my peak of dumbass - Hamlet
Please assume I have dignity - Polonius
Please assume I’m straight - Ophelia
Please believe I’ve reached my peak of dumbass - Claudius
Hamlet: The stars are beautiful tonight.
Ophelia: Yeah.
Hamlet: You know who else is beautiful?
Ophelia: Rosencrantz.
Hamlet:
Hamlet:
“Life’s a curse, love’s a blight, God’s a blaggard, cherry blossom is quite nice.”

Niels... What a beautiful name 😿
I’m sorry w h a t
Interesting is that dramatist W.S. Gilbert who wrote "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern" (1874) and shipped Rosencrantz and Ophelia died while attempting to rescue a young woman from drowning.
“I haven’t forgotten — how I used to remember my own name — and yours, oh yes! There were answers everywhere you looked. There was no question about it — people knew who I was and if they didn’t they asked and I told them.”
— Tom Stoppard, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead

NEW LAUNCH ⏳ EVERYWHERE & NOWHERE
After the tragic events of Hamlet, background characters William Rosencrantz and Anne Guildenstern find themselves dying off screen. They end up dead and alive, everywhere and nowhere, allowing them to appear anywhere in time as they please.
Everywhere & Nowhere updates every Sunday and Wednesday on WEBTOON!
