gertrude and gloucester are the new hamlet/othello–

gertrude: hey edmund what’s that letter you’ve got there?

edmund: oh it’s nothing

gertrude: sure whatever. Im gonna go get married again.

edmund: ok dear mother, who loves getting married so much that there’s absolutely no way I’m illegitimate in this timeline

–

gloucester: hello boy what’s wrong?

hamlet: uncle claudius killed the king! a ghost told me!

gloucester:…

gloucester: we need to handle this IMMEDIATELY. also I 100% believe in ghosts and need no further evidence to back this up
