do you ever think about how pride and prejudice is about Lizzy learning to be loved
#pride and prejudice
#yeah yeah the wish fulfillment of her being a spunky outspoken young woman who catches the attention of a much more powerful suitor
#but that like. Aside.
#the sparkle of that. the fun of that ASIDE
#Lizzy is just sort of knocked down by Darcy’s love for her
#and the true actual warmth that that love creates
#even by the way Bingley and Georgiana love her. for her own sake and also because of and through Darcy
#she’s so young at the start of the story. it’s hard to believe she was in too much danger of becoming a cynic
#and yet wasn’t she though?? wasn’t she????
#and it’s love that beats down her pride and her cynicism and her reliance on her judgment
#and no none of those things were that deeply rooted in her yet because she’s light and because she’s young
#and yet they were there! and the whole story of pride and prejudice is love just wrapping itself around her and protecting her from ...
#well from everything
#but also from herself!
#and so it’s a deeper wish fulfillment than just a human girl who has strong opinions and wants to be considered charming for them
#(a valid one)
#it’s just the good real desire for love! and being loved and being seen
#and being saved through that love
#and yeah Lizzy helped Darcy and saved him too but it is her story and that is the way she is saved
#and I’m gonna cry on this Friday night
#because I’m so distraught
#this story has always been so utterly warm for me. just the warmest place I can imagine
#and it’s because of this
