forgiving guildenstern hamlet horatio laetres memories ophelia rosencrantz shakespeare waking

When Laertes found out that his father was killed, he flew into a rage, returning to Denmark with poison in his pocket and vengeance in his heart. Buying the poison seemed very straight-forward, unless he didn't know french. Unwittingly being met by Father Lawrence, and getting the same poison as him, the plan made by Laertes and Claudius didn't go quite how they wanted, seeing as both Laertes and Hamlet wake up 48 hours later. Set in modern times, a story of after the fight.

It's not 100% clear, but there is a slight cross-over with Romeo and Juliet, just for fun eh?

I would like to thank the following user: http://www.wattpad.com/user/DaughterofProspero for working with me on this, firing improvised conversations back and forth involving the characters, and putting up with me going on and on about this because I get hooked on things and don't shut up about them. She has her own version of this on her page, and I suggest you read it because it's awesome. Also thanks to her for the use of her song, Brother. It made me cry, it's beautiful.All Rights Reserved

The Black Knight and the Rose by LadyAngelEnglish

A.D. 1386. Innocent of Lady Marguerite de Thibouville's accusation of the hideous crime of rape, French knight Jacques Le Gris doesn't want to face her angry husband Jean De Carrouges in a trial by combat, a duel that should determine, by God's judgement, who's telling the truth. Jean has been his best friend, Jacques owes him his life and vice versa more times that he cares to count, and has even been his eldest son's godfather. For all these reasons, Jacques doesn't want to kill Jean to prove his innocence, which would also mean that Marguerite would burn on the stake because convicted of perjury. Despite her lies, Jacques doesn't want to be responsible of her death. Of course, there's the chance that Jean kills Jacques, and he's not willing to die because of a false accusation. Jacques' only option is therefore to go on the run, even if this means being considered a coward and guilty anyway. As King Charles VI of France had been very reluctant to allow the judicial duel, Jacques thinks that, perhaps, if he takes the flight leaving behind a note explaining his reasons, the sovereign will understand and possibly agree with his act, if not pardon it. Taking all of his money and easily transportable values, Jacques secretly leaves France and moves to the Republic of Venice, where he plans to offer his services to an old acquaintance of his, Count Galeotto Malatesta of Valdastico...

The first wolves made by the Moon goddess, and finds out the Alpha of the pack is her mate. And of course, she wants nothing to do with him, and he wants everything to do with her. But He is not one to be toyed with, brutal and heartless( and that's just being modest). He refuses to let her disrespect him and will go to any extent to ensure she submits to his every will. Thankfully, she can't die. But a war is coming, and it's out of this world. Malik and Iris are the only ones that can stop it, and they don't know it yet. Will they be able to push their differences away and let the Moon goddess finish what she started, or will they be to pig-headed and stubborn to fall in love?

Fairytale? by EdsGryff

𝑭𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒕𝒉 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑭𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝑩𝒐𝒐𝒌 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 '𝑨𝒍𝒍𝒊𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆' 𝑺𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒔 A lifetime of grief. A thousand years of waiting. Enough torment to cripple the divine. But Sanya found Edmund, at the end of it all. He held her in his arms again. They were reunited. After all the pain, there was love. And love seemed enough to give up everything- yet again. Love was enough to take his hand, and walk into another realm. But new worlds do not fix old aches- and they can even end up creating new ones. New people, new sights, new moments do not take away from the memories of the old. Loss- of home, of family, of love, of identity, of everything- can be pushed back, but the agony of it festers like an untreated wound. And, really, is love- even love that has survived so much- enough to cure so many wounds, borne of too many kinds of pain? But Sanya doesn't care. Edmund thinks that he doesn't care, either. They have each other again- no amount of teachers and separate schools and parents can keep them away from each other- and that togetherness was what was important. That was what mattered. But the question is, I suppose- is the once-True lying to her love, or to herself, or both? - 𝗪𝗔𝗥𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚: Mature language, explicit sexual scenes, use of slurs, attempted suicide, self-harm, racism, queerphobia, mention of internalised homophobia, violence, recollection of trauma. - #3 in #narniaau #4 in #medievalfantasy #5 in #skandarkeynes #5 in #ocfanfiction #7 in #worldwar2 #8 in #narniafanfiction #28 in #1940s #31 in #kingsandqueens •••• The Alliance Series, as found on @EdsGryff: 'Alliance' 'The Heirs' 'Moonshine' 'Fairytale?' ••••

HaMLeT by oddmitchbrown

Welcome! After two years, I completed my passion project with a meaningful, common-tongue translation of Hamlet, meant to bring Shakespeare to the masses. While still holding true to its original time period and subtext, the modern-day Hamlet strives to introduce people to Shakespeare, and the world of theatre again. Did you know Shakespeare was born into a plague? Not just any plague, THE plague. The "Black Death" ravaged Europe and changed the world as we knew it. You can see its effect in Shakespeare's art and how his works shaped what we know as theatre to this day. Much like then as today, theatres were forced to leave the ghost light on, close their doors, and witness the world became a little less bright. Out of the ashes emerged, what is widely accepted to be, the greatest work of the greatest playwright of all time. Cue Shakespeare! The Bard gave us The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark; a new perspective on life, and what it means to be, or not to be, human. Converting old English and Shakespeare has been the efforts of many since its initial development. With in-depth reference and research, a common-tongue version of Hamlet came to be, while staying true to its original setting. Hamlet is an open-source play, but culturally it's a different story..

Before the Teardrops Fall by Jesbelieve

Ron woke up in the same room, with the same sound of rain pitter-pattering against the window, and the same throbbing ache on his head. As he scanned the room, the scene around him seemed to be a decade old. Memories from that time surfaced then faded away, merging into bits of other memories like trickles of rain converging on the window pane. Ron had been stuck in a time loop and he wasn't even sure if this was just a dream. Would he eventually wake up? Or was he a dead man crossing the borders to heaven? However, some thing was amiss this time. Elena, his childhood beau, had lost her mind. But before he could know more, he was spun back into the past. Could this be a chance to change Elena's life? In the silence, the sound of clock hands ticked away mercilessly, echoing loudly in his ears. He could hear the sound of sand rushing down the hourglass embedded in the old pocket watch. Outside the window, grey clouds drift forward, lighting up in bright red flashes upon each strike of lightning. When the clouds arrive overhead, Ron would be spun out of this time again. Can he uncover the truth before the teardrops fall, again? ------------------ Author's note: Hi there! This is my first novel :) This is a story about our regrets in life. Inspired by my favourite movie. Can anyone guess what movie it is? After I started writing the story, I started to see that there are different movies and stories on the similar themes. I was grateful for all the inspiration and hoped I added enough twists to make this unique on its own! I wanted my first story to have a kinda mystery romance vibe. I hope to pull it off! Hopefully the story excites you as much as it excites me! I appreciate comments and feedbacks. Thank you.
