#agravaine (arthuriana)

[gringolet]

what if you lived in a society with strict and sometimes absurd rules regulating what behavior was honorable . and your perfect older brother was so good at it the best at it even but you just didnt get it because the rules dont make sense and theyre stupid and its not fair that he can play the game so well and you cant. and everyone hates you and calls you a piece of shit because you arent good at following the Rules like your brother and his stupid piece of shit boyfriend. and then you find out that the boyfriend is Breaking The Rules really seriously and you tell your brother and hes like shut up about it, just let him break the rules and get away with it. but your younger brother agrees that its fucked up and you should expose him so you do and everyone forever is like youre evil for this and everyone that died as a result is because of you. and you deserved to be killed by this guy for showing that he broke the rules. this happened to my buddy agravaine

Worst knight tournament

I saw that Lancelot and Gawain got voted out of the best knight tournament, so it is time to vote for the worst knight:

They have been pre-selected using MY PERSONAL OPINION OF WHO ALREADY IS THE WORST. But this time I left an option for "Other"

By worst I mean: the guy you would guillotine if you could.

#arthuriana #agravaine #gaheris #sir gareth #watercolour sketches #personal project #i had an idea for making agravaine actually be gawain's twin in this that i keep going back and forth on it #and gawain is like half an hour older than him #and there is always a tension there about it slkajdsa #anyway these guys gonna grow up to cause so much trouble! #artists on tumblr

on one hand, you can’t really generalize mythology. especially one with as long and varied a literary tradition as arthurian legend has.

on the other hand, agravaine is gay in 100% of retellings. i don’t make the rules. i’m simply presenting my findings. a safe assumption going into any story. you’re probably correct.

reading lancelot, part 4

annnd we’re starting by having Feelings about Gawain and Lancelot

so much of Lancelot’s adventures involves him being made extremely uncomfortable by the people who try to find out his identity, pay him too many compliments, make passes at him, or just follow him around when he would’ve preferred them not to, poor thing

yay for Meleagant’s sister scheming and plotting and helping our hero, even if for her own ends

god. Guinevere tells Lancelot that Galehaut is dead and then the two of them immediately have sex. I need to study these characters like bugs

‘“But everyone knows everywhere that Lancelot has been dead for over a year,” replied Lancelot’ - shoutout to the translators/editors for choosing this wording, very funny

I gotta be honest, Lancelot isn’t even among my top 5 knights of the Round Table, but I get it, I get what people see in him, this guy has so much Something Wrong with Him (affectionate, concerned)

I thought I’m already used to the comically extreme level of violence in the Vulgate, but I didn’t expect this lady to load enemy knights into a fucking catapult

omg Saraïde hiiii <3333

I respect the girl who went all alone to the enemy camp and poisoned the well they drank from

so Bors just almost killed a guy for claiming Gawain was a better knight than Lancelot, and now it turns is the guy in question is Agravaine lmao

these people are insane

yeah, sure, please ride around dressed like an idiot, this will be sooo useful to your lady

“Wounded, my lord?” replied Lancelot. “I certainly am not. You can tell my lady with certainty that I have no wound that would make me stop traveling, and that I’m going away.” he has a LANCE stuck in his side as he says that

“Sagremor was put in this prison. His constitution was such that when he became heated up in battle or in any kind of exertion, he grew cold afterwards. And he then became so hungry that he would almost go crazy and would sometimes faint in agony” - it’s hypoglycemia, right? Poor guy has low blood sugar?

“and, besides, you know how to tell stories better than others” - Arthur to Guinevere

“My lord,” said Hector, “the knight who has never failed at some point at something has not yet been born, so you shouldn’t be so upset.” word!

wait, am I understanding it correctly that at this point Lancelot and Hector have no idea they’re half-brothers?

“he had curly, blond hair and would have had a very handsome face if his demeanor had not been not so wicked” - Mordred here being very Dorian Gray-esque

there’s a looong list of Gawain’s good qualities, from “a simple, pleasant countenance and a compassionate expression” to being kind towards the poor and the lepers, and it’s all good, but - and I say it most lovingly - I really doubt he could really be characterized as “wise and moderate always”

Agravaine is described as simultaneously having a “somewhat misshapen” body and beautiful, with a “quick tongue” and “full of evil words”

oh, this one has Gaheris as the third brother and Gareth as the fourth. I swear in The History of the Holy Grail it was the other way round for some reason

Gaheris’s “right arm was longer than his left”

I also swear that somewhere earlier it was mentioned that it’s Gaheris who is Gawain’s favourite brother in this particular version, but here it says it is Gareth... okay, got it, whichever that isn’t Agravaine

“He was greater in stature than any of the others” - so I take it Mordred is the tallest of the five brothers despite being the youngest. Must be embarrassing for them
