Hello Crucible fandom

[your-stranger-halfblood-things]

Agree that Proctor and Hale had something lavender going on?

Abigail Williams is not the villain, she’s the victim

I’m specifically referring to the one from The Crucible.

Abigail is just a scared child. She was seventeen years old and was sexually abused. She worked for John Proctor. She says it herself “I look for the John Proctor who took me from my sleep and put knowledge into my heart.” He instigated the affair.

He took a weak helpless child and Assaulted her. “It was in the old days, they had different standards 🙄” The Crucible was written in the 50’s, Miller should’ve known better. All he did was make a rape victim (a minor when the rape happened mind you) into the villain. Plus Miller said in ‘why I wrote the crucible’ that he saw himself in Proctor. Ya know, the groomer/pedophile.

I was recently reminded of the crucible. When I read it in school we’d have discussions about the various characters and events and Abby was (and still is) my favorite. There were so many people who hated her though so this post is for her.

I could rant about my darling Abby for hours trust me so if people want a part two put it in the comments or send me a message.

Also Abby or Parris should have been the main character.

Writing The Crucible fanfiction for one of my friends as a birthday present. Dropping the link soon for anyone interested (the target audience being people forced to study it at school).

Reverend Hale went from "Theology, sir, is a fortress; no crack in a fortress may be considered small" to "Cleave to no faith when faith brings blood" and I just. Hnnnnnnnnng this is some top-tier character development.

I need an angsty Hale x Proctor fic that has religious themes (obviously) and sticks to the plot of the play while making all of the readers cry

Please

But when they removed to their new house in Milton, the obnoxious papers were gone. The landlord received their thanks very composedly; and let them think, if they liked, that he had relented from his expressed determination not to repaper. There was no particular need to tell them, that what he did not care to do for a Reverend Mr. Hale, unknown in Milton, he was only too glad to do at the one short sharp remonstrance of Mr. Thornton, the wealthy manufacturer.

I've quoted this in full because it's just such an incredible mic drop moment. The Hales are used to being known, welcomed and accommodated in Helstone. Margaret sees herself as far above the "tradesmen" of Milton. But in one final sentence Gaskell makes it crystal-clear how different an environment the Hales have found themselves in, and how unprepared they might be for it.
