I'm finally getting a certain friend of mine to read Persuasion. He hasn't gotten very far, but his feedback is great. His response to Elizabeth and Mrs. Clay was, "So it's gay but we still don't support it?" and honestly? I think that's about the best hot take I could have hoped for.
Elizabeth Elliot is living proof that being queer doesn’t automatically make you a good person, so. And Penelope is just fake as hell whoever she’s flirting with.
A high five for your friend and that hottest of hot Persuasion takes.

Three of my favorite literary-inspired webseries: The Emma Agenda (lesbian Jane Austen), Project Green Gables (queer POC Anne of Green Gables/three seasons of wonderful), Away From It All (beautiful nature scenes/beautiful transmedia/wonderful characters). Also I'm very happy I found your blog. You're good people. 🌙 🌼 💫
this was so nice and high level? also lesbian jane austen?? queer pocanne of green gables?????????? i need no more detail these will absolutelybecome my new favorite things and you’re amazing
🌙 – i’m so glad you asked for adifferent set of three because there is no way i could have pulled three literary-inspiredwebseries out of a hat so you get a random set of three: three trees I canidentify solely by taste are white fir, red fir, and rose of sharon
🌼 – the tile scheme for your posts issuper cute also you’re trying to write a webseries??? props to you and the bestof luck with that (although that does explain why you knew so many)
💫 – your literary inclinations and yourwell-informed ideas remind me of seshat, ancient egyptian goddess of wisdom,knowledge, and writing and subsequently of accounting, architecture,astronomy, astrology, building, mathematics, and surveying, as these alldepended on her
come celebrate (with the speed of a monolithic glacier)
The webseries in that gifset are, in order: Call Me Katie Lovely Little Losers The March Family Letters The Better Strangers (Something I haven't seen) Northbound The Roedell Project Horizons The Lizzie Bennet Diaries From Mansfield With Love All highly recommended, mostly literary-inspired, very low-budget, and likely to appeal to fans of The Candle Wasters!
HEY WEBSERIES BUDDY!!! you’re honestly such a nice person for always giving me notes on my webseries posts it’s like???? every time i post something and you like/reblog it, my heart explodes a little like ‘i see you and i love you thank you so much for being a good bean’
and you always put such great content on my dash but then i just realized i apparently didn’t follow your webseries blog (anymore?)???? what’s up with that @ me i had to fix that mistake right away
ANYWAY you’re just a geniunely cool person and if we one day teamed up, we could be the pan and ace dream team the webseries world has hoped for ever since the concept of the “all or nothing” show, and I, personally, think that could be rad :D
Mr. Darcy's Decision is decent, if you can suspend belief about a few things. The writing is pretty true to Austen, and the plot isn't too hard to believe, though things definitely happen a little too suddenly.

silverowldragon replied to your post: Middlemarch: the series
Hi I love this show. Also yes, it’s pretty diverse! Celia is Hispanic even though she’s very white-passing, and there will be two more African American characters later. Also basically no one is straight. It is a surprising novel to have chosen to adapt, but I’m pretty happy with the results
So I’m now 11 episodes in, and loving it. [vague spoilers below for both the webseries (through 11 episodes) and the book]
Poor Fred... though he also made an offhand comment to Max that seemed to be a bit of a microaggression, so... but you know, that is the thing about Fred, he’s not perfect. He’s coming from a place of privilege and totally un-self-aware about it. Nevertheless, he was one of my favorites in the book too, and Rosamund is just horrible, and so annoying, and the sibling relationship is totally believable... but I hate that she sabotaged Fred and made him think the guy he likes doesn’t like him...
Hopefully Dot will realise that her boyfriend is an arrogant asshole who doesn’t respect her mind enough. I hated how he talked over her in the one video where he appeared.
[To be fair, I do remember how all these stories play out in the book, more or less, so I’m curious what will happen in this adaptation and how they will play out to presumably lead to similar outcomes. In the book, rather than dating a grad student a few years older than her, Dot’s counterpart marries a much older man, who eventually dies, so that she can end up later marrying a man who actually loves her.]
