Thirty Days of Borgias: Day Twelve
Day 12 ~ Historical Crackship: Who belongs together, time and space be damned?
Well, I have one that would actually work, date wise, without needing to bend time and space: Micheletto/Michelangelo Buoanarotti. The young Michelangelo came to Rome during the time Rodrigo was Pope. So: he's surly tempered, very competitive (ask Leonardo), brooding and given to sarcasm, good with his hands, with a surprising gift for words given his main field of genius was being a sculptor with a sideline of painting (but really, the man wrote some fantastic sonnets), a canny businessman (ask Not Pope Yet della Rovere, with whom he later negotiated re: Sixtine Chapel), and definitely had, to quote the show, an appreciation of the male torso. IS HE MICHELETTOS TYPE OR WHAT?
If you want a time and space bending crack ship, though, I have tosay one of the reasons why River Song gets along so well with Father Octavian in Time of the Angels is that she had a fling with Rodrigo and is feeling a bit nostalgic. She'd have mentioned it except that nobody is shocked to hear such things about the Borgia Pope, so really, what's the point of kiss and tell?
