I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S POSSIBLE TO SHIP PAIRINGS IN SHAKESPEAREAN PLAYS, BUT MERO (Mercutio/Romeo) ALL THE GODDAMN WAY! I seriously see their relationship being much realer than the relationship between R+J. Mer has clearly known Romeo a LOT longer, and I think it would make a beautiful, even more tragic a lovestory if told from Mer's perspective.
Take this for example: Mer has known Romeo all his life and has developed very real feelings for his friends, but has his heart crushed time and time again when Romeo dates women and thoughtlessly casts his kindness aside as mateship. What if Mer was outwardly gay for Romeo, but made it out to be purely phsical and fun, all the while hding his true feelings for him? And then, say he discovered that Romeo married J just before he died, and THAT is why he curses the families. Juliet got the man he had always wanted in just a few days, and Romeo never took him seriously. How tragic would that be?
I know most of that was my own creation, but i think it could potentially fit into an interpretation of the well-known play.
Asdf.
I like R + J much more now.
I also think Romeo and his mates should be Anarchists. But, you know, just for show and to be all gang-like and intimidating, even though they are totally obedient to the Montague family. :'D
Cheerio.
Tootaloo~
BYE.
I AM TIRED AND SHALL PARTAKE OF SLEEP AS OF NOW.

Maybe you should try writing that as a fanfiction on R&J. XD
