and on that note–
gloucester should share a physical feature with edmund. something not overly noticeable, but something you can’t easily hide. he’s really stuck with physical evidence that edmund is his.
of course the feature could be anything. but given the eye symbolism,, let them both have the same unique eye color.
I fully understand why edmund/goneril is the more populare ship, but can I interest you in the beauty of edmund/regan
the second child. the overlooked child. who lashes out at the world that favors the eldest by default. neither get the benefits of being doted on as the youngest, as cordelia may have had many years ago, as a legitimate child may have had in the gloucester household–
even as regan openly displays more violence and anger than her sisters, she still can’t catch her father’s attention; he’s busy fixating on his firstborn who betrayed him. Betrayed him by not allowing him to keep one hundred knights in her house. he curses goneril’s name and forgets regan’s.
exactly like how gloucester is with edmund.
