Dang, it's over! But I loved what you did with Willy's work. So nice to finally find out what the real story behind R&J really was. Because we all know there had to be a 'real story' behind the play as the two lead characters in Willy's play were too stupid to ever figure out how to plow each other's fields. Lol! Well done and I look forward to your next opus. And I don't mean the penguin, but then again that would make an interesting crossover...

Review of chapter "The Epilogue." from robertlisle
Review:
Funny story. Great reinterpretation of a classic play with a bit of fractured fairy tale for good measure. I always thought Romeo and Juliet would go better with vampires(though not the sparkly kind.)

Okay, color me stupid. I just read this whole thing from the start, and didn't notice the note in the description about Black Adder until Act 6. I recognized Nursie (without benefit of said note), but never made the connection with Sir Percy until the last paragraph of Act 7. I must say that I am glad that you've made both characters quite a bit more intelligent than their archetypes. Juliet, on the other hand, seems to be about as single minded in her pursuit of losing her viriginity as the original Nursie was in her obsession with breasts.
Very entertaining, and I'm looking forward to the next installment.

The Blackadder xover is just a very minor one, I sort of pictured Juliet as 'Queenie'. Bit of trivia; Nursie in Blackadder II was based on Nurse in Romeo and Juliet.
Anyway glad you liked it, more today final part about Friday.
Your female characters have such honey tongues. And I don't mean that in a dirty way. First it is Faith with: “You don’t look so bad y’self.” in reply to Percy's nice little speech about the hotness that is Faith. And then it is Juliet with a mouth like a poxy Venusian whore. I love your story. I just hope Percy doesn't get kilt before Faith can be plowed again. Lol! Love this story, except for the the werebears, of course. I know. I need to move on. Lol!

And It's On!!!. Juliet's quite the Ho, ready to betray her Bros. (By the way, that was the funniest parody of the balcony scene I've read in years =) ) Nursie got quite the nasty bruise, but thanks to Lady Luck, she's quite all right. And now, the end is near, and so we face the final curtain, I think there's gonna be quite a dust up of epic proportions in the beautiful Verona. Oh yes, indeed.
See ya!!
