John and Paul in Midas Man part 2

Here is my meagre present for @adriansfrombrooklyn as part of @beatleskinkmeme Secret Santa 2023, sorry it took so long!

I kept trying to write something but it was not to be, so I drew a little kiss. ⚓

Paul has some beautiful eyelashes <3 🌷

JOHN LENNON – »He was a bit of a loony in the nicest possible way.« - Paul McCartney

The Beatles leaving their suite at the New York Plaza, February 1964

I love the chaos of this scene. Ringo listening to their song on the radio. John calling Neil ‘Nell’. Paul and George being silly boys until John walks out and Paul’s brain grinds to a halt. Paul trying to finish his bit when his brain eventually comes back to life. Ringo strolling out half an hour after everyone else.

Good times.

Slow-mo gif to appreciate the emotional journey that Paul goes on…

More weird behaviour here

As a fellow blind I don't think Paul was short sighted or at least very lightly. He doesn't do "the totally lost face I'll stare somewhere faking confidence" or the evergreen "I am not squinting my eyes, I am just focusing on the serious matters you are bringing in the conversation"

He is being cute as hell and the cheeky boyfriend with John

Paul Wearing John's Glasses

Paul would often steal John’s glasses, and refuse to give them back, and True Fact: Without his glasses, or contacts, John was legally blind.  I vaguely remember a quote along the lines of “John would be searching for his glasses where he’d last left them, only for Paul to be walking about wearing them, and not telling him. And then John would figure it out and shout, “MACCA!”. 

The Daily Mail reported that Paul also needed glasses, but never wore them in public because glasses were John’s thing, at least according to “McCartney’s friends”, how true that is I don’t know. But it gives me an excuse to post these other pictures in which Paul is wearing glasses similar to John’s, but which may or may not be his: 

the stuff that screams are made of

So comfortable beside each other
