future productions of chess need to being back anatoly accusing freddie of being a fruit

no offense but if you haven't watched chess på svenska at 1am then you haven't truly experienced everything chess has to offer. it's amazing. it's terrible. its bizarre. it's entirely in swedish. freddie lights a cigarette with the statue of liberty and then puts it out in a russian nesting doll. the arbiter's name is jan jacques van boren and he has a chorus of leg flapping secretaries behind him singing his praises. at one point he literally floats in midair like a swedish trickster god presiding over his kingdom. tommy körberg is there. absolutely insane production 10/10.

i wonder what it's like to live unburdened by the fact that chess was originally supposed to be a musical about the cuban missile crisis

medieval chess au….? that sounds so cool

so originally i wanted to do some kind of historical au for chess set during the medieval era, but the more i looked into it the more i realized that trying to do something like that in a real world context while still keeping the same real world political context (apolitical chess is just not as interesting to me tbh) just wasn't going to work, so instead i decided to do what george r.r. martin did when he was writing game of thrones and use real world history (game of thrones was largely inspired by the war of the roses) and real world politics within the context of a fantasy setting, so the main conflict is still east vs west, but it's the eastern kingdoms vs the western kingdoms.

freddie is ser fredrick, the gilded lion, born and raised in the golden city (the main seat of power among the western kingdoms similar to king's landing, located by the sea) to become king, beloved by most while also being regarded as a petulant child that (seemingly) hasn't had to deal with any real hardship, and then across the emerald sea are the eastern kingdoms, a colder, harsher climate compared to the western kingdoms, which is where prince anatoly, the black prince (or the white wolf, depending on who you talk to), lives with his wife, svetlana, and his advisor, aleksander molokov, who himself was born in the small settlement of alexandrovitch, located just outside the black gates, which separates the northernmost mountain range and the freefolk lands from the rest of the southern kingdoms. florence, meanwhile, is ser florence, a former advisor and freddie's royal mistress whose family comes from the eastern kingdoms but grew up in the golden city before deciding she was fed up with her life and ran away to become a knight instead, and then other plot details that include things like anatoly abdicating the throne because he never wanted the responsibility of ruling a kingdom and leaving his wife to take over the responsibility instead as the czarina and her doing so knowing that there are people who depended on them for leadership and guidance (and honestly probably being better at it than he was), molokov secretly plotting to take over the throne for himself (having already earned himself the nickname of the wolf whisperer), freddie regularly competing in the tournaments held in the golden city and being a very capable warrior in his own right (he's big on jousting).

#typing this with a fucked up hand because i got way too excited thinking abt never play to win a pawn aka game of chess #so far most characters and locations have a corresponding game of thrones equivalent that served as its inspiration #like how molokov is basically petyr baelish #or how florence leaves to become a knight like brienne of tarth does #the eastern kingdoms are very much patterned after winterfell and the wall in addition to its real world equivalent of russia #as well as other slavic countries #while the western kingdoms are patterned after king's landing and the vale and highgarden #as well as mountains and forests and some of the deserts found here in the states #i still don't have Everything but i also just haven't worked on this in Awhile #but it's definitely one of my favourite aus i've ever worked on tbh #answered #nickclose #chess the musical #never play to win a pawn tag #the tirolean spa (my brain) once again has the chess boys in it #i also have a drawing of knight!anatoly somewhere if i can find it 👀

love how when walter introduces anatoly on global television before the first game molokov gestures to him like the proud owner of a russian show pony and also me whenever josh groban plays a fundamentally sad man in a musical going through a divorce

my thank you present to you for spamming #chess the musical with new (silly) content 😋

first of all thank you for this you wonderful person you 🦁🎁💖 second of all so fun fact i woke up after a VERY late night one night and i opened up photoshop to draw the chess boys from the tirolean spa and instead i was greeted with this monstrosity which i had absolutely ZERO memory of making the night before and now it haunts my every waking moment

#sorry for clogging up the chess tag with my absolute nonsense it Will happen again lkajfdsa #can't wait for my hard copy of chess in concert to be here in roughly a week or two so i can FINALLY see the deal (no deal) with my eyeball #and not have to try and imagine it in my head #i'm sure there's probably a full boot out there that isn't checkers on yt but honestly i'm actually looking forward to having the dvd #gives me smthn to look forward to when it gets here hehe #answered #wateroflifer #freddie trumper #chess the musical #the tirolean spa (my brain) once again has the chess boys in it

going to try and sleep now but adding chess medieval au to the list of chess aus i need to stop thinking about so much but won't because it has inevitably taken up space in my brain that was never available in the first place ❤️

#watching narnia again did this to me i'm sure of it #lion.txt #the tirolean spa (my brain) once again has the chess boys in it #i haven't written fic of any kind since late 2019 but i am both plotting AND scheming. god help us all. #chess the musical #never play to win a pawn #<- owe my life to aron mimzowitsch for this quote in the hopes that i might finally do something instead of just daydreaming about ideas #we will simply have to wait and see how long the chess hyperfixation lasts.......

chess swan lake au......

#i literally have to work tomorrow and it's already after 1am but huoughhhhhhh #lion.txt #chess the musical #this is mostly abt anatoly as odile and molokov as rothbart but i have Thoughts #anyhoo. good night. #the tirolean spa (my brain) once again has the chess boys in it

[feydfuckernation]

can't find my sketchbook rn or i would show u but i want all twelve people in the chess fandom to know that in fact the ideal 2009 fredatoly lies somewhere between josh groban in a turtleneck and round glasses because russia is cold and freddie looking like adam pascal in rent because he is both asexual and also a whore i hope this helps

#the tirolean spa (my brain) once again has the chess boys in it #chess the musical #kings 👑 #this is what happens when you don't release the sweeney todd revival obc for weeks on end and i turn to chess in concert 2009 to cope
