💖 - how do you show affection?

memes??? but for the time being,, until i get Better @ showing affection and Feelings™,, definitely spending money. not in like a gift-giving way bc i don’t feel like i’m particularly great at that, but i just like to pay for things for ppl yk?? like buying u a coffee or dinner’s on me or stopping @ the store for u, etc. 

💝 - what’s the best gift you’ve received?

i have suddenly forgotten every single gift i have ever received aside from the electric toothbrush i got from my parents for christmas a few yrs ago which honestly might take the cake anyway, so. 

💗 - do you blush easily?

already answered but yes 😳☠️🥰

💘 - do you get crushes easily?

i was gonna say no but then i realized that’s fake and i definitely do lmao. 

💓 - do you gesture when you talk?

always…..i’m like my dad who literally cannot speak w/out his hands. 

💞 - are loving someone and being in love with someone different?

yes! to me u always love the person ur in love with but ur not always in love with someone u love. like i love my friends n fam but i’m not In Love w them, yk. 

💕 - what fictional duo do you and your partner/best friend act like?

Pls share your hot takes on 1995 p&p💖🤤🙏😇

thank you (and to @yorkshireteabagging) for asking.

I will caveat that I haven’t watched 1995 in years but I also don’t want to, lmao.

1. Hysterical but unfunny women

One of the best things about Austen and P&P is how funny the text is. These characters are absurd and they say ridiculous things, but it’s not exactly obvious slap-stick humor. You have to be immersed in it to get it (take that! my entire 10th grade class, you didn’t try hard enough).

So the characterizations of Mrs. Bennet and, to a lesser extent, Kitty & Lady Catherine are actually offensive to me. They’re all played into these extreme caricatures that eliminate all nuance in their stories. If the series could navigate the ridiculousness of Mr. Collins with ease, how could they not allow the same for Mrs. Bennet? They stomped all over her with shrillness and gave her no room to be a person!

2. Loyalty over feeling

It’s too long. They had too much time so they filled it by being extremely accurate to the books to the point of being boring. The books require so much detail to immerse the reader into the story. So when you move to a visual medium, YOU DON’T NEED THAT MUCH TIME.

They overdo it with loyalty to the book and forget to find ways to bring it down to earth. It robs the series of the feelings that build within the text, which leads me to...

3. the lake scene is absurd.

i’ve seen text posts ripping into the US version end scene of 2005 because american audiences needed a kiss, but GUESS WHAT. That’s better than turning this into a paperback bodice ripper FOR THE VIEWS. way to jump genres, you edgelords.

4. styling jane

i mean i have some questions about the casting here (i don’t want to be mean), but why did they have to do that actress so dirty and make her look ridiculous? surely you could’ve found a different period appropriate hairstyle that was more flattering. it completely took me out of it because everyone’s like “THE BEAUTY OF THE COUNTY” and i’m like “what.”

yes

bubble bath: do you have any routines before bedtime? like skin care, etc. what are they? i could be on my deathbed and i would still brush my teeth and at the very least wash and moisturize my face. then bleu gets her bedtime treat and i get in bed and usually scroll thru insta and tumblr one last time then either hit the sack or read for a bit! that’s what i try to do, at least...sometimes i end up watching three episodes of the office until i fall asleep and then regret it in the morning but, yk. it’s what it’s. 

gold: describe what you would call the most perfect meal. answered here!

pearls: what's something about your personality that surprises others? ahh i dunno! probably that i am much weirder than anything on the internet would lead u to believe. like i’m weird on here? but it gets worse once u know me :/// 

ty kayla ilu 🥰

2. If you could meet anyone on this earth, who would it be?

oh boy, bts!! but also hayley kiyoko, perrie edwards, auston and willy, and 2013 one direction hhdjsh

3. Grab the nearest book to you, turn to page 23, give me line 17.

page 23 is the end of the chapter so i’m doing page 24. “She just pecked experimentally at the window controls, so he got it himself.” (from the raven king by maggie stiefvater)

20. What is your greatest weakness; your greatest strength?

i think my greatest strength is my positivity. ~usually i can see the brighter or better side of things. weakness....... idk willy’s thighs? hdhksjf (in all seriousness i’m super impatient)

37. Do you believe in luck?

blueberry muffin tea: tell me a memory which makes you smile.

not to be a total sap but sitting 3rd row at scotiabank arena watching our family warmup with you 🥺💓 probably my absolute favorite memory of 2019.
