“You know, it’s actually good,” Nick acknowledges after a pause, giving Will a crooked smile, “Honestly, Will, you’re a much better writer than actor.” “Bite your tongue.” Will warns.:: - ::Or, how William Shakespeare - not yet a bard, much less The Bard - became one of the greatest minds that England has ever known, and just how much the Bottom Brothers had to do with his rebranding.

What if Nigel was more aware of his family's financial struggles than they thought? Determined to help, he secretly takes a job but not just any job. By sheer luck (or fate), he finds himself working for none other than William Shakespeare. As Nigel grows closer to the legendary playwright, he earns Will’s trust, stepping into a world of poetry, passion, and late nights spent shaping what Shakespeare believes will be his greatest work yet—Hamlet. But when Nigel’s brother, Nick, comes up with an oddly familiar idea called Omelette, Nigel can’t ignore the eerie similarities.Torn between loyalty to his family and the deepening connection he shares with Shakespeare, Nigel faces an impossible choice. Will he protect his brother’s dream, or will he stand by the man who has begun to change not only theater—but his heart? And how long can he keep his double life a secret before everything comes crashing down?

Nigel knows he’s generally viewed as the weaker of the Bottom brothers. He’s the soft, more sensitive, quiet one who has always needed Nick. What he doesn’t realize, what they don’t realize is just how bad Nick really does need them.

“Um,” Nigel starts, but he’s finding it uncharacteristically difficult to string together a sentence with her in front of him. He can’t focus on anything else. His head is spinning. He wonders if this is how Nick felt when he first met Bea. “Hi.” “Hi,” she parrots, offering him a bemused smile. There’s a beat of silence. She glances downwards. “You’re holding my book.” or: two phd candidates walk into a library. inevitably, they walk out with shared custody of a book and a love story in the making.

Will offers a job to Nigel Bottom, hoping to get his hands on some material to…inspire his next great hit. How was he supposed to know that he would fall for the young poet who seems so infuriatingly immune to his advances?

Shakespeare is a budding rose of talent, acting in the filthy streets of Stratford-upon-Avon to promote his career. He burns the midnight oil writing vigorously, unstoppably. When he sees a flyer for an acting troupe, he immediately goes running. 'His feet pounded against the concrete streets, breath visible against his own panting, not even caring about the cold sting of winter air biting him through his thin clothing, sweat dripping down his brow. This was it, his destiny. His fate— his dreams of fortune, fame— it would all come to life at this very moment.'That's when he meets The Bottom Brothers.——————Hi, this is a fic about the things left in the background in the musical, mentioned by Nick, Nigel, and Shakespeare about their pasts! This is the canon universe, but I edited parts of it to make it make sense. There are also headcanons and things I rewrote so I can develop their personalities past the events in the musical!
