Doctor Faustus - Christopher MarloweRating: Explicit (probably between R/NC-17, but rating for safety).
Warning: Consent issues (slavery, submission, power imbalances in both directions)
Relationships: John Faustus/Mephistopheles
Characters: Mephistopheles, John Faustus
Summary: Faustus has abandoned the notion of asking for a wife, after travelling so long with Mephistopheles as his companion. He asks for something else instead.
AN: The cinema showed the Globe's 2011 production with Arthur Darvill as Mephistopheles. The subtext was very much text. So this happened.

ETA: Mostly for my own reference -
a tumblr gif-set and an
image-set with more pretties.
So anyway I blame Arthur Darvill and Paul Hilton. Although possibly mostly Arthur Darvill.
