It's taken from William Shakespeare's Love's Labor's Lost, Act 4, Scene 3:

'A lover's eyes will gaze an eagle blind'

It was a common myth that an eagle's sight is so powerful it could safely gaze directly into the sun. Eagles were often regarded as royalty among birds, as eagles were perceived as the bird that could fly the highest (i.e. reaching heaven), therefore they were the animal closest to God.

The quote's meaning is saying the warmth of a lover's gaze is so divinely brilliant that it can blind even an eagle, something even the sun can't do.

Absolutely. The cast is so dynamically queer we're not sure how to keep track of it, honestly.

Out of the wide range of characters there may be... two? who are canonically cis-straight.

Have fun guessing who.

Pretty damn mature! Please read the content warnings to understand the sensitivity of the subject matter.

It's a long one, for sure. It's designed as a 26-episode season, so strap in.

The characters have been with us since 2008-ish for a different genre story, a gothic fairytale world titled Wrens Make Prey.

In a way, WMP is our progenitor project for everything we've done with Little Foolery, but we left it on the shelf because somehow we had the wherewithall to recognize the themes and nuances it demanded were beyond our scope at the time — both in skill and in life experience.

Fastforward to 2022, the characters spontaneously got rebirthed into a cyberpunk concept, and it dawned on us that we've grown enough to actually do them justice. From there, it kind of took off without brakes, and along the way it became our carthasis in emotionally processing the current deteriorating online climate.

Because we think Shakespeare is neat.
