If you got to pick the house, profession, and income (you can have your 10k/year and Pemberley or Donwell or whatever), which Austen hero would you marry?

If you are a man/lesbian/other looking for the "show answers" button, no. No button. You're either gay or or straight or a woman or marrying just for the companionship now, pick a husband.

speaking of remakes of classic literature: why does no one make a modern take on austen's northanger abbey that parodies the mordern horror genre (as opposed to the gothic satire it initially was)? that could be fun and cute without fucking up the main message

#like I'm envisioning a movie about a college girl who gets invited to the creepy cabin of her crush over spring break #and the entire time she's convinced she's in a horror movie setting while her crush just wants them to experience the ultimate romantic #holiday #so a bit like tucker and dale but including the romcom genre #p #northanger abbey

Pino, 2 seconds after stepping through the doors of the Arche Abbey:

#i'm not ashamed to admit i got my ass blasted lmaooo #one would hit the carcass in front of me and i'd be laughing only to get hit 2 seconds later like yeah thats fair i deserved that #i'm walking around the abbey in a state of fear . i can just feel the laxasia fight approaching #lies of p #lies of p meme #lies of p pinocchio

(some of) my literary roman empires

benedick’s “you” —> “thou” switch in 4.1

the extended portrait metaphor in pride and prejudice

may welland

the repression of female emotions in victorian fiction

henry’s “a country dance as an emblem of marriage” speech in northanger abbey + the way that 19th century dance scenes prefigure marriage in general

the moment in jane eyre when mr. rochester asks jane if she finds him handsome and she says “no, sir”

victorian floriography

ophelia’s final scene

ww1 solider poetry (sassoon, owens, rosenberg, brooke etc.)

the ambiguity surrounding bertha mason

juliet’s “O romeo, romeo, wherefore art thou romeo?” breaks from iambic pentameter because the name romeo has too many syllables so the problem is literally his name

éponine thénardier (just everything about her but especially the “i am the devil” scene)

Favorite niche book genre

#these 4 are the ones than mainly caught my eye #but there are hundreds of Austen retellings like that #specially mixing p&p and vampires #I saw one where mr Darcy turned into a platypus #one where Elizabeth Bennet and Catherine Morland were cousins and #they found vampires or smth #one set in a post-canon p&p universe where Elizabeth fights aliens?#this is basically fanfiction it’s so fun #idk if they’re any good I haven’t read them yet I want to #jane austen #sense and sensibility #pride and prejudice #northanger abbey #mansfield park #retelling #pride and prejudice and zombies #sense and sensibility and sea monsters #Northanger abbey and angels and dragons #Mansfield Park and mummies

If there’s a universe where Mr Bingley brings Regency Bertie Wooster to Netherfield, do you think the story would hit all the same plot beats??

#pride and prejudice #jeeves #jeeves and wooster #crack #austen books where bertie and jeeves would have saved everyone a load of trouble:#mansfield park #austen books where all that shit would have happened anyway #but with additional bullshit courtesy of j & w:#emma #persuasion #northanger abbey #n the fence about s&s and p&p

Happy Halloween from Catherine & Henry! 🧡🖤🦇🧛

I like to think that these two would have fun going as vampire and vampire hunter

#northanger abbey #catherine morland #henry tilney #happy halloween #my sketches and drawings #I imagine Henry having a ball at the implication that Catherine's “hunting” him - we know he likes being pursued by her ;)#also don't tell me he would be using the most ridiculous puns #I'd “stake” my life on it ;)#this man has to provide his “biting” commentary no matter what ;p

Things I would happily re-watch in 2025 while I await new content

The Martha Stewart Documentary (Netflix): As the OG "trad-wife" and queen of domesticity, this is a must-watch for homebodies everywhere. Martha knows how to create the perfect dinner party, whether for one or more.

3 Body Problem: This one surprised me. As a sci-fi fan, I was hooked by the storytelling and world-building. Definitely a great watch for fans of the genre.

Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon (Seasons 1 & 2): These seasons delivered exactly what they needed to. I’ll leave it at that.

Interview with a Vampire on AMC - I could stare at Jacob Anderson all day. That man is too beautiful and his New Orleans accent is dead on. I do not care if that show made him the face of domestic violence victims- he ate in season 2.

Big Mood: This show is everything for Millennial and Gen Z girls. With "Insecure" and "Girls" gone, we need something real and messy centered around female friendship. The chemistry between Nicola and Lydia is unmatched, and I’m praying for a season 2.

P-Valley: I miss my girls down in the valley. Enough said.

Doctor Who: I don’t care what anyone says—Ncuti’s first season slapped. As someone on the edge of Gen Z, it was exactly what I needed. Yes, it took me six months to binge all 40 seasons and specials, and yes, I started over two days later. I have an obsessive personality—let me live.

Downton Abbey: A classic I always come back to. It’s replaced Gilmore Girls as my favorite fall binge. The blend of classicism and autumn vibes is unmatched, and we really need to examine why we’re drawn to that level of elitism.
