I really feel like le morte darthur lends itself to a the green knight 2021 esque interpretation a little too well

7. The knight rescuing Golden Locks
Can’t complain about a Knight. Fun ears on the helmet, impractically Triangular shield, little creature companion. Also that is a delightfully deranged dragon and I feel that merits consideration.
6. The maiden with the Brown Bull of Norroway
delightfully androgynous haircut and drapey robe, an excellent excellent bull, and an even more excellent little horned creature in the shadows going 😛
5. Aladdin
10/10 gay sprawl, delightful little mustache, and extra points for the bifurcated land mermaid genie situation
4. The Master-Maid
huge bonus points for those bootie shorts and knee socks, points detracted for this not actually being a picture of the Master-Maid, but of the prince friend, because I think we can all agree that “Master-Maid” is a *chef’s kiss* gender
3. The King of the Goldmines
the cape. the third position ballet feet. the casual “oh these dragons and harpies and eagles etc I just killed? nbd” position of the sword. an icon and a legend.
2. The Fairy in Disguise
this one does need a bit of context, because that fairy in the back right is in disguise, but when the disguise comes off, it is described as “the fairy, throwing off the hermit’s robe in which she had been disguised and appearing before them”, which to me implies that she just has that beard, which I think is very neat of her
1. Prince Darling transformed into the monster
look who wouldn’t want to at once be an ethereal, flower-crowned hottie and also a chimeric monstrous beast. 10/10 no notes.
Merlin: I won't say "I told you so." Merlin, 0.2 seconds later: I told you so.
You can't blame Merlin for calling Arthur a ‘Lazy-daisy’, if this is how Arthur looks like whenever he sleeps/wakes up:
