This is amazing. What a wonderful AU for this crew. The narration flows and swerves in total keeping with both the play and the setting. Not surprising that you're finding it easy to blend the bard with Deadwood-land...its creator mentions that people of that time probably had two books: Complete Works of Shakespeare, and the Bible (don't know how much of that is true, but that was Milch's concept).
Love how this got darker even as the really dark comments were almost throwaway remarks: the hunting trophy and chasing a man eight miles until his legs gave out had me re-reading it several times, getting more horrified as the imagery sank in.

Will this be continuing?
