Holy crap, there is a The Borgias kink meme already: [livejournal.com profile] borgiaskink

You guys like things with incest subtext, right? Check this shit out. The blonde and the dude in purple are siblings. Watch this vid. Don't worry, the only thing it'd spoil you for is how often Lucrezia and Cesare find themselves on the verge of making out. SPOILER: VERY OFTEN.

Do you like powerful families full of hubris manipulating the world to suit their purposes? OF COURSE YOU DO. ALL THE BLOOD ON ALL THE HANDS. ALL THE REGRETTABLE THINGS. Look, Cesare never wanted to be a cardinal, but his dad Jeremy Irons has ambitions to be the Pope, so Cesare is the right-hand man organizing the assassins and bribes, and actually he is pretty good at it. His other talents include sleeping around and creeping on his sister. Watch The Borgias.

Speaking of Jeremy Irons being a Pope: whenever he speaks, I imagine it's Scar saying the lines. I'm sorry, Jeremy Irons, you will never not be Scar to me. Yeah, I make no claim to be watching this for historical accuracy. Meanwhile, here is a fic rec.

vicarius filii dei by [livejournal.com profile] marketchippie | The Borgias | Lucrezia/Cesare | PG13 | ~1775 words
SUCH GRACEFUL PROSE, THIS FIC. Furthermore, it's a well-known fact that incest is best carried out in a confessional booth.

Truefacts. Every I ever see him in anything I'm all "GUYS SHUT UP IT IS SCAR".
