Okay, obviously I get why Emma gets to be the resident Disaster Matchmaker TM, but really John Thorpe gives her several runs for her money. He beats her in numbers of matches, execution, and production value accidentaly. Emma only managed to get Harriet's heart broken - twice. Thorpe's got it down to the details: he got Cathy the guy and a swoon worthy proposal. Cause if left to his own devices, Henry would have put together something sweet and heartfelt but simple, and Cathy would have been very happy of course, but she clearly doesn't mind a little bit of ✨romance✨. Thanks to Thorpe, she gets to brag forever that her husband loved her so much he bore being disowned and rode 70 miles on a horse to propose against his father's will.

Thorpe might be shooting in the dark, and aiming for the complete opposite goal, but d-mn it, he gets results, and I think he deserves to be the Austen Extended Universe Hipercompetent Matchmaking Menace TM. Not the least because, unlike Emma and every other Austen romantic rival, he has nothing else going for him.

5Ds did me such a favor by choosing to canonize that psychics are just. A Thing. A Known Entity. We should all take advantage of this more. Y'all, in this world being able to talk to ghosts is just Not An Uncommon Thing, there are support groups and organizations and some of them can summon monsters into the physical world and some of them can just talk to them and some of them can predict the future, you've got people like Luna who can astral project and Akiza who can conjure plants IN THE SAME show. Let's get funky with it. Post-canon Yuya attending a support group for fledgling psychics. Bakura and Sartorius and Carly are all friends through a tarot enthusiasts' message board. Yuma passing off talking to Astral by telling everyone he can just speak to ghosts. Yusaku taking a u-quiz to see if he's actually magic or just really, really autistic.

#Basically every show has magic characters and its so funny #5Ds straight up goes 'yeah some people can throw fire with their minds. The legislature is still growing to accommodate that.' #yugioh is just casually a magical realism setting and no one ever acknowledges it #give me characters encountering anything weird and instead of panicking theyre trying to google if this means theyre psychic #Yuma's sister and grandma notice he's been talking to himself a lot and approach him with a bunch of self help brochures #Cathy Katherine is a witch and everyone just never mentions it because why would they #yugioh #yugioh dm #yugioh gx #yugioh 5ds #yugioh zexal #yugioh arc v #yugioh vrains #gx #5ds #zexal #arc v #vrains #luna fudo #akiza izinski #aki izayoi #ryou bakura #sartorius #carly carmine #yuya sakaki #yuma tsukamo #yusaku fujiki

the way heathcliff and catherine are so intrinsically bonded that they can hardly stand to be together and can hardly stand to be apart, and they go crazy out of their minds seeing the other romantically involved with someone else...

I finally decided to give some info in my rottmnt oc Cathy. She's a Bengal tiger mutant who can shift between human and mutant form at will. She also speaks Japanese and sign language. HUGE FAN of Lou Jitsu and master of blade weaponry. Her favourite brother is Leo, her second favourite is Donnie,her third favourite is Mikey and her least favourite brother is Raph . It took her a really LONG time to get used to April since Cathy would constantly try to scratch her. Cathy loves detective and horror movies. She also knows a lot about Japanese urban legends like the Teke Teke and Kuchisake-onna. Cathy is almost as smart as donnie and often helps him with his inventions. Her relationship with Splinter is a little distant but Cathy loves to ask her father about his movies.

Make sure to keep an eye out for the first chapter of my rottmnt au!!!!😉🙂

This particular pose / illustration from Chainsaw Man very much gives Heathcliff and Cathy idc idc

This is at least young Heathcliff and Cathy. The pose. The matching peace signs. The evil little grins. Nothing to do with Denji and Power at all ( the original characters in the illustration) but just the artwork in general. Absolutely peak disrespectful bratty Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw.

Literary Isolation: The Heart of Charlotte Brontë

@faintingheroine answered an ask about Nihal’s isolation in Aşk-ı Memnu and by a series of tangential jumps in my brain, it made me realise that because Charlotte Brontë discourse can often focus very much on Jane Eyre, people don’t necessarily consider just how key a theme isolation, specifically intellectual isolation is in her work, as well as the wider work of women writers of the time.

The most famous example is of course in Villette, where Lucy Snowe is ‘alone’ at the pensionnat over the holidays and becomes ill, mirroring many episodes in Charlotte Brontë’s own life. This is the novel where Charlotte explicitly set out to confront female isolation.

Yet, in this particular instance there are several things to remember, the most mind-boggling being that neither Lucy nor Charlotte were literally alone. There were servants and other lower-class individuals around her who she was unable or unwilling to befriend. The issue is one of a supposedly intellectual difference, but realistically, a class-based difference.

As a governess in English homes and as a teacher/student at the Pensionnat Heger, Charlotte identified that she was operating in a liminal class space. She was neither as lowly thought of as a servant, nor as highly thought of as her employers/students. Even when the holidays were over and she had pupils and other staff members to associate with, Charlotte created false animosities between those who she perceived as above or below her in status, i.e., convincing herself that Madame Heger hated her because she knew of Charlotte’s feelings for her husband (she likely hadn’t a clue), convincing herself that all of her employers hated her (tellingly, reasons less clear). These apparently imagined animosities served to justify the sense of class isolation Charlotte felt and the feelings of isolation, the lack of equal friendships became key elements of her drawn-from-life style.

This isolation from ‘equals’ wasn’t just something Charlotte experienced when away from home, though her sisters and brother certainly supplied the lack. When Maria Brontë, wife of Patrick Brontë was alive, they were social creatures, often visiting and receiving visits from their friends/family in the local clergy, but after Maria’s death, Patrick alienated his female friends by asking them to marry him and, having removed to Haworth not long before Maria’s death, was at a distance from his friends/her relations in the clergy who had their own busy parishes to attend to.

Distance from these friends and business in the parish meant that the young Brontës were mainly in one another’s society; within Haworth itself, the other inhabitants were of a different class and that was a barrier only Branwell was content/able to cross, and not until he was of an age to frequent the public houses. School should have been an opportunity for more socialisation, but after the disaster of Cowan Bridge (the school that inspired Lowood, as repeatedly confirmed by Patrick Brontë and Arthur Bell-Nicholls), Patrick was tentative about sending the girls to their next school, and Anne and Emily both struggled with their health while they were away from home. Charlotte, however, made a few friends, and that she recognised their value can be seen in her handling of isolation in Shirley.

Shirley presents us with a heroine who is also in a liminal class space. She does not belong to the slightly bourgeoise class of new money industrialists, nor wholly to the respectable clergy because of her mother’s past. Yet instead of presenting her with a class equal, Charlotte Brontë presents her with an intellectual equal. Shirley transgresses class to end Catherine’s isolation, but also to end her own isolation as the only woman of status in the area.

One could argue that the Brontës are a unique case, but this is simply not true. There were many isolated parishes in England and no doubt many clergy daughters who grew up without being exposed to other children, and may not have been able to afford to go to school.

Much as Charlotte Brontë likes to distance herself from Austen, the same problem occurs in Emma, when Emma is left as the only woman of her class in Highbury and therefore must either live in complete isolation or associate with those who society believes beneath her. She cannot socialise as an equal, and no doubt there were other young women in Emma’s position, isolated only by their status.

In Wuthering Heights Cathy Linton is isolated in this same way, as were Isabella and Catherine before her. I suspect this is also part of Nihal’s isolation: she is of a particular status and is therefore mostly at home and alone. Those she might associate with are not accessible to her except in public places and until Bihter connects the family with the Melih Bey set, she does not have access to these public places. Yet Cemile is right there! But Nihal is separated from her by status and by false extension, intellect.

The loneliness that these women felt must have been very real, but it’s also difficult for us as modern readers to grapple with the fact that they were very much not alone. They were surrounded by people; the only thing between them and the social pleasure they desire is class structures and false intellectual superiority.

I think my end point is that isolation was a major problem for women of the period and one that is very pressed in literature, particularly the work of Charlotte Brontë. But that problem was not a simple one, and when viewing these works through a modern lens it’s important to recognise the unspoken aspects of these issues.

"Heathcliff is the villain of Wuthering Heights!!" How can you say that when Hinley Earnshaw (and cruelty and greed and emotional brutality and wealth and the class system) is RIGHT THERE?

Why are you listening to true crime if it cause distress

it didn't use to, bc all i listened to was buzzfeed unsolved and the cases they covered didn't make me feel Dysphoric And Unsafe bc of my body. and generally i try not to listen to cases that would make me feel that way. but yknow. sometimes it happens

#was recently suckered into watching a netflix docuseries on the cathrine cesnik case by my mom! hell #'all i know is its about this nun that was murdered' and i was dumb enough to believe thats all itd be #the monarch’s court #and like maybe i wouldnt feel so unsafe about it if my dad like. didnt joke about it #idk. all i want to hear abt is shit like the pizza bomber and then i get dragged into 'sister ca #'sister cathy was murdered for attempting to bring forward a child r*pist priest' #ask to tag
