#how the tables turn

The tables turn so beautifully on Captain Wentworth halfway through Persuasion! He disentangles himself from Louisa only to find Anne on the point of being engaged (he believes). I like this passage from his random, unnamed friends:
As soon as they were out of sight, the ladies of Captain Wentworth's party began talking of them.
"Mr Elliot does not dislike his cousin, I fancy?"
"Oh! no, that is clear enough. One can guess what will happen there. He is always with them; half lives in the family, I believe. What a very good-looking man!"
"Yes, and Miss Atkinson, who dined with him once at the Wallises, says he is the most agreeable man she ever was in company with."
"She is pretty, I think; Anne Elliot; very pretty, when one comes to look at her. It is not the fashion to say so, but I confess I admire her more than her sister."
"Oh! so do I."
"And so do I. No comparison. But the men are all wild after Miss Elliot. Anne is too delicate for them."
I love it! Wentworth said she was so altered for the worse, his friends think she's prettier than Elizabeth! And Mr. Elliot is SO handsome and well mannered. And he's the heir of Kellynch! Suddenly the old ship (Anne), worn and broken up, is a hot commodity.

Well, well, well...
Countdown to *zero* yt fangirls writing serious thinkpieces on how Nebula and/or Rocket violated poor baby, Bucky and how that's ablelist or how "mean" and violating it was, because neither character who has it for Xmas giggles, is a black woman like Ayo...
#that's right#I aint forget#how the tables turn#bucky#bucky barnes#spoiler#guardians of the galaxy#tfatws#gotg christmas special#she simply crept in#while dude was either sleeping on the floor or...distracted w/ a certain sarah wilson#pilfered it#annd maybe the sarah's kids heard or saw her ship#and thought maybe it was santa#ayo#rocket raccoon#nebula#bucky's arm#orrr nebula simply straight up told them why she was there#and they cracked up laughing#because they heard all of uncle sam's stories#about how obsessed rocket was with it.

When I get a moment of nervousness or social anxiety/embarrassment or need to clear an intrusive thought from my head, I often make the sign of the cross, modified generously to include knocking on my left temporal lobe. It works fairly well; it's a little weird since I'm not Catholic and I never have been, but it usually seems to calm my brain.
The only problem with this habit is that I mostly only do it in high-traffic areas such as walking to classes or while studying in public. The combination of this fact and aforementioned strange motions means that people constantly think I'm waving at them. Complete strangers wave back at me and I just kind of have to lean into it and go ���🙂 as if I wasn't just having thoughts about ripping out a man's jugular vein with my teeth
#if this gets many notes i will draw out the process for my Bastardized Sign of the Cross because explanations dont do it justice#if this gets no notes i will probably also draw it out. i'm not cool#its an especially weird thing for me to do because i go to Highly Religious University [not a catholic one either]#so people regularly watch an anguished-looking guy do the Sign of the Cross on 99.6% Not Catholic Campus and have to figure that out#which is ironic considering my grandpa went here as a catholic and later converted to the main religion#how the tables turn
