I feel like I gotta add in pictures of what the characters look like.
Escalus the tree:
Ophelia, the magical tree guardian:
Cordelia:
Hermione:
William Shakespeare himself:
Juliet, and also Juliet as a vigilante:
Romeo:
Lady Montague:
Montague:
Benvolio:
Mercutio:
And last but definitely not least-
Tybalt:
op, where’s the fucking link i cant take this. why does juliet’s hair get shorter in vigilante form. why is escalus the tree Like That. why does ophelia have the best hair. who made this. i am hyperventilating.
op answer my question about whether or not it’s addressed that this family tree makes juliet and romeo canonically like 2nd cousins
Nope it’s not, and tbh I don’t think they even know they’re related. I forgot when Montague says his backstory, but he was either talking to himself or to Mercutio.
They do, however, know part of Tybalt’s backstory, so Juliet knows that her cousin is brothers with her boyfriend
