Experience Tumblr like never before
Idk how to describe it, but George Emerson and Mr Darcy are on exact opposite ends of romantic lead spectrum yet both possess insane amounts of autistic swag just executed in wildly different ways
Rip Jane Austen you would have loved tumblr
Forgive me.
Pride & Prejudice (2005) dir. Joe Wright
When I first read Pride and Prejudice I was 14 and couldn't care less. Now, three years later I find myself completely engrossed in this book. I cannot believe my attachment to Lizzy and Mr Darcy. My overpowering interest in the novel does not cease to surprise me
You weren't born bisexual, you chose to read Pride & Prejudice and fell in love with both Elizabeth Bennet and Mr Darcy
"you held her hand ungloved? what, you gave her a lap dance too?"
I'M SO PROUD OF THIS ONE it's my first time trying out semi-realistic art and I just had to do an iconic scene that lives in my head rent free.
when you want to be elizabeth but you're actually darcy
PRIDE & PREJUDICE (2005)
Currently dreaming of Mr.Darcy
Me at almost midnight watching the pride and prejudice (2005) movie for the millionth time when I had an epiphany.
This scene:
"So what would you recommend, to encourage affection?"
"Dancing. "
Later on followed by this scene:
"May I have the next dance Miss Elizabeth?"
"You may. "
HE WAS ENCOURAGING AFFECTION
BONUS:
Two of my favorite things being paralleled in quotes? What a treat!!
“A lady’s imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment.”
Lucien watched the ever-young forest. “Isn’t that what all human women wish for? A handsome faerie lord to wed and shower them with riches for the rest of their lives?”
"From the first moment I met you, your arrogance and conceit, your selfish disdain for the feelings of others made me realize that you were the last man in the world I could ever be prevailed upon to marry."
Her mouth tightened, the only sign of anger in her graceful countenance. “I don’t want a mate. I don’t want a male.”
I dare say you will find him amiable.
“He is a good male,” I repeated.
"It would be most inconvenient since I have sworn to loathe him for all eternity"
She just ignored him or barely spoke to him until he got the hint and left
He's been a fool about so many things, about Jane, and others... but then, so have I. You see, he and I are so similar.
How Lucien withstood it, I didn’t know. Not that he’d shown any interest in bridging that gap between them.
but I said, “You couldn’t say a single word to him? A pleasant greeting?” Elain only stared at the steaming kettle as she set it on the stone counter.
"You are too generous to trifle with me. If your feelings are still what they were last April...."
Elain only shrank further into herself,
tell me so at once. My affections and wishes are unchanged; but one word from you will silence me on this subject for ever.
Cassian’s heart strained at the pain etching deep into Lucien’s face as he tried to hide his disappointment and longing.
But she doesn't like him. I thought she didn't like him.
"She has no interest in him anyway"
SJM loves P&P which in it's simplist form is two characters who develop misconceptions about the other upon their initial meeting. Who can't help but being drawn together throughout the book but refuse to admit it due to their own stubbornness. As a result they either act indifferent and push the other away (Elizabeth) or suffer in silence with longing (Darcy).
It's weird that people know of her love for this movie / book and how everyone in it believed Elizabeth greatly disliked Darcy (up until the end) yet they still act like Elain's indifference towards Lucien is a bad thing.
You must know… surely, you must know it was all for you. You are too generous to trifle with me. I believe you spoke with my aunt last night, and it has taught me to hope as I’d scarcely allowed myself before. If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes have not changed, but one word from you will silence me forever. If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you. You have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.
Pride & Prejudice (2005) dir. Joe Wright
So it turns out putting wood varnish on cheap plastic frames actually works amazingly
Who knew 🤷♀️
I'd rather sit in silence with you than have thousands of conversations with other people.
Why is it always 'ILY' and never 'You have bewitched me; body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. And wish from this day forth never to be parted from you.'
