Prince Faggot Imagines If a Royal Were, You Know …
A photo of Prince George becomes the jumping-off point for a gay romance that’s surprisingly conventional.
But if actually ruling seems like a big ask, and it’s too bloody or too extreme to imagine usurping the king, maybe it’s easier to look for a mirror in the polished surface of the crown itself: What if that perfectly pedigreed inheritor of a great colonial empire were a bit more like you? Tannahill’s take opens with something like a spec script for a future episode of The Crown: A college-aged Prince George (played by the porcelain John McCrea, whom Montana Levi Blanco has dressed in high-fashion shorts) brings his British Indian Oxford boyfriend, Dev (Kumar, well-groomed and intimidating, like every queer who majors in the history of art), home to meet his family. He’s a diligent leftist who’s written about Kara Walker, with a dad who canvases for Labour, and he also refuses to bottom for George because “my ancestors would never forgive me.” And yet, this guy also managed to fall hard enough for an actual prince that he agreed to enter into the public-relations Saw trap that would come with dating him publicly.
