Merchant of Venice

oh so so so so so so slashy.

There’s no way anyone could say “nah, it’s not homoerotic,” because in Antonio’s and Bassiano’s first scene (after much eye-lusting) this speech:

Well, tell me now what lady is the same
To whom you swore a secret pilgrimage,
That you to-day promised to tell me of?

is changed to:

Well, tell me that you to-day promised to tell me of?

with the pauses and hints meaning “I knew this was coming, and you promised you’d be honest, so come on, out with it.”

And this is all done ON THE BED.

If you haven’t seen this version, you really should.
