Interviewer: Are you very fond of Alexander? Gene Roddenberry: As a matter of fact, I am. I have Mary Renault's new Oxford book―in fact, I'd have everything in the bookstores a few years ago. Passionate admirer of Alexander. Passionate man. [...] Interviewer: There's a great deal of writing in the STAR TREK movement now which compares the relationship between Alexander and Hephaistion to the relationship between Kirk and Spock―focusing on the closeness of the friendship, the feeling that they would die for one another― Gene Roddenberry: Yes. There's certainly some of that with―certainly with love overtones. Deep love. The only difference being, the Greek ideal―we never suggested in the series―physical love between the two. But it's the―we certainly had the feeling the affection was sufficient for that, if that were the particular style in the 23rd Century. [He looks thoughtful] That's very interesting. I never thought of that before. [From Shatner: Where No Man (1979)]

Sooo I watched the new docuseries Alexander: The Making of a God and I was hit by indirect Kirk/Spock feelings because I remembered this interview. And of course I had to make a gifset about it. :)

why is everyone obsessed over romeo and juliet when the holy trinity of gay tragic lovers exits!? like alexander the great, achilles and apollo didn’t lose hephaestion, patroclus and hyacinthus for everyone to forget about them!! like they’re the same but one is a myth, the other is a book, and the one that was real

Alexander the great and hephaestion are so patrochilles coded it genuinely makes me sick to my stomach like how the fuck did they make the iliad in real life what the actual hell this is so fucked up

#THE WAY HEPHAESTION DIED A YEAR BEFORE ALEXANDER????? HELLO????????#honestly mad respect to alexander tho he saw the blorbo from his book and went ‘I am going to be him’#AND FUCKING DID IT!!!! HE IS ACHILLES IF HE WAS REAL!!!!!!!!#no one can reach the degree of ‘he’s just like me fr’ than alexander did with achilles #both their names start with A for fucks sake #and their stories have been straight washed and their partners forgotten #EVEN THEIR HORSES ARE FAMOUS!!!!!!!! THAT’S INSANE!!!!!!!#at war with a powerhouse enemy for an extended amount of time… (though he did conquer like A LOT so…)#both are young as hell and are destined for greatness #god…#it’s 12am I need to go to sleep #alexander the great #hephaestion #history #alexander x hephaestion #achilles #patroclus #the iliad #patrochilles

YOU'RE WRITING CHARACTER X CHARACTER????? OMG WHICH ONES WE MIGHT HAVE THE SAME SHIPS 🙀

I AM I AM I AM

Planned

Scott McCall x Isaac Lahey - Hogwarts au?

Rick Grimes x Shane Walsh

Charlie Swan x Carlisle Cullen?

Started

Erwin Smith x Levi Ackerman

Achilles x Patroclus → Alexander x Hephaestion → Hamilton x Laurens

reincarnation au where as soon as A's heart stops beating, B remembers their past lives.

John "Bucky" Egan x Gale "Buck" Cleven aka Mr. and Mr. Egan

- Bucky comes back to a replacement in Buck’s bed the day after he’s gunned out of the sky. Safe to say, he doesn’t take it well.

- Gale makes a crystal radio at home as a kid. Of course, it don’t work too well. At least, that’s what he thinks until a fella who’s deadset on calling him Buck answers.

Different first meeting.

- Everyone flirts with Buck, whether he realizes it or not. It's too damn bad that Bucky is such a jealous, jealous man.

Established relationship written bc Bucky driving Buck around everywhere despite it being completely unnecessary is the 1940s war equivalent of your man getting a fresh cut and telling him to come home IMMEDIATELY. Don't talk to no one, don't smile at no one, matter of fact, don't even LOOK at no one. And that one meme “guys, when you're dating a beautiful woman, you have to understand that ppl are gonna hit on her. In fact, someone asked for my girl's number when we were at the mall. Here's a thread on how I handled it: I shot him.”

- What kind of idiot turns down their soulmate? The exact kind of idiot John Egan is, that's who.

- Two years. Two years and Bucky has never known Buck’s orientation. He never asked, and Buck never told. And with these hormone suppressants pumping so strongly through their veins, Bucky really shouldn’t care. So why does the idea of Buck being an alpha like him make Bucky so upset?

(Omegaverse au x ppl in the military take suppressants to hide their orientations. Bucky thinks Buck is an alpha, and Buck thinks Bucky is an omega) written bc heehee hoohoo booboo heehee

- Soulmates aren't real. Bucky knows that, he does. But if that's the case, how the hell did he manage to fall in love with his best friend in two lifetimes?

College reincarnation fic from Bucky's pov bc he longs so beautifully - memories triggered by a phrase that's different for everyone
