Polyamships: Days 1

[scifirenegade]

Life decided some (internet) things were not meant to be (ficathons becoming drabblethons), but it could be worse IRL.

In honour of 3weeks4dreamwidth, polyamships is doing a little event.

25 April: What is/are your current favorite poly ship/s? Want to share a little bit about them with us?

At the moment, I'm spinning

• Arthur/Guinevere/Lancelot (The Adventures of Sir Lancelot)
  It's honestly amazing a show for children from the 50s manages to handle the Guinevere/Lancelot side of things in a thoughtful manner, while also not going all the way with it because... they both love their King so much. Basically, Guinevere and Arthur have two hands and they can use them, godammit!


• Didier/Juliette/The Marquis (Ich und die Kaiserin)
  Niche af. I like to think, now that Didier has ascended to conductor (and possibly can show off his own compositions), he can get an assistant, and therefore more time! And he can join Juliette and her dummy Marquis on it.


• Buffo/Erik/Julie/Mark (The Last Performance)
  So.
  Erik loves Julie, who loves Mark. But Buffo loves Julie (and Erik, apparently, albeit in a more love-hate way). Erik has one of those hate relationships with Buffo (that we can fix ;) ) and is way to handsy with Mark. Got it?
  Very messy, very angsty, and everything could be fixed if they all kissed.


• George/Gilda/Tom (Design for Living)
  Rewatched recently and I'm back to spinning them in my brain. Notable for being a movie (originally a play, the London version had Anton Walbrook!) from the 1930s that has the girl getting both boys. The chemistry is just off the charts.


• Felicitas/Leo/Ulrich (Flesh and the Devil)
  Another movie in which its central relationships could be fixed if they all kissed. Felicitas has two hands and Leo and Ulrich should just kiss already.

(Shoutouts to Rick/Ilsa/Victor of Casablanca fame and C.K. Dexter Haven/Mike/Elizabeth/Tracy of The Philadelphia Story fame!)

(Shall always call C.K Dezter Haven as C.K. Dexter Haven because that's how it should be >:3 )

Não conhecia esse desenho de Arthur, mas vou pesquisar um pouco porque nunca é demais um pouco mais de amor para esse rei bobão que transcendeu os séculos com sua estória u.u

É uma série engraçadinha, cheia de aventura. Provavelmente a melhor representação num meio audiovisual de Lancelot (ele é boa gente! Ele é leal! Mas continua a gostar de lutar e fica chateado muito facilmente). Tem é pouca coisa que remete às lendas, mas não se pode ter tudo...

This does sound amazing, and I've never seen it!
