Apparently I should be checking out this miniseries adaptation of Shakespeare’s history plays, immediate-style.
I haven’t sent stuff like this your way recently but OHGOSH THE ARMOR AND STYLE AND SHE’S ACTUALLY GOT LINES AND WRINKLES I NEED THIS EVERY DAY OF MY LIFE.

Outstanding.

Why is it always the woman wgo “wears the form fitting armor because she is more dexterous”
And the guy is in a huge hulkling piece of armor.
Give me woman in rediculous ornamental armor with with a hammer whos smashy bit is is bigger than her head.
And give me a lightly armored male rogue who is flexible always manages to dodge at the last moment….
Actually screw the guy. Make them both women. And they are a couple.
give me a polyamorous group of women in huge bulky armor. Polyarmorous.
Give me a whole knightly order of awesome paladins who are all girlfriends with each other and wear armor that, like real-life armor did, basically makes them into walking tanks.
