    Summary

    In 1940, Beatrice falls in love with fellow SOE agent Benedict - only for him to break her heart. In 1945, Beatrice's cousin Helene and uncle Leonard conspire with Benedict's friend Claude to bring the feuding lovers together.

    After all, if one can risk one's life as a spy, one can certainly risk one's reputation for love.

    (In which Benedick and Beatrice have a reason for hating each other, and we have less reason to hate Leonato and Claudius for what they did to Hero)

    (Or, the MAAN WWII spy AU/fix-it no one asked for)

    In this twist of Much Ado About Nothing canon, it is John who is a legitimate heir and Hero who is not; it is Hero who is unloved by her father and John who is set to become King when his own father dies.

    Summary

    Hero admires her cousin's bravery and strength. Beatrice thinks her little cousin has strength all on her own, but Hero doesn't see it. A tumultuous affair in which Hero finds herself a lady in love, a fallen woman, and eventually dead (to her fiance) causes her to reevaluate the attributes it takes to be a real hero, and if the person a hero saves can be herself.

     

    Possible romance elements to come, but for now this is just an exploration of Hero and how I think a soft teenage girl might feel when suddenly thrust into turmoil for the first time in her life.

    Summary

    Just your average Shakespeare fic where I make it take place in post-war era. But instead of just doing the whole play, I just picked one scene (Act 3 Scene 3) with my favorite Duo of Dumbasses: Dogberry and Verges.

    Summary

    "Better three hours too soon than a minute too late. Let every man be master of his time."
    -William Shakespeare

    Sorry there, Will. I'd be lucky if I was a minute too late. :/

     

    Still, I might have missed Shakespeare Day yesterday, but I did this quick sketch of Keanu Reeves as Don John from "Much Ado About Nothing" to help make up for it.

    Summary

    Six months after the events of Much Ado About Nothing (1993), Claudio suddenly dies in an accident and leaves Hero widowed, childless (her first and only child with Claudio ends in miscarriage), and alone. She moves back in with her father. Two weeks after these events, her father dies and the estate passes back to the prince (the Crown), who entrusts its day-to-day operation to Don John, who has just completed his 6-month punishments for the deception he causes in MAAN canon. John and Hero become “de-facto” married, and eventually learn to love each other.
