#haven't decided what to do abt jane and bingley yet. would be funny if he still gets bingley to leave and lizzie assumes it's bc of her

Thinking abt how stressful it would be to wear all those pure white dresses in Austen has me thinking abt a P+P variation where Wickham does show up to the Netherfield ball and gets Lizzie alone in the garden and tries to Kiss Her With Tongue and Darcy comes to rescue her but at some point she gets knocked on her ass in the scuffle and when she escapes back to the ballroom thinking she's successfully evaded scandal, Charlotte is like "babe you gotta sit down NOW there are grass stains all down your back" which means, of course, RUMORS

#i already have the confrontation written in my head. lizzie doesn't hear what darcy says to Wickham just sees him fix Wickham's collar and #give him an EXTREMELY sturdy pat on the shoulder after which Wickham gets the HELL out of dodge #and of course Misteh Dahcy has to MARRY lizzie to SAVE her REPUTATION #haven't decided what to do abt jane and bingley yet. would be funny if he still gets bingley to leave and lizzie assumes it's bc of her #only to find out later (via Caroline being a fake bitch) that it had nothing to do w her and was just Darcy being a meddler #at which point lizzie is like 'i see! i have married a horrid stinky bastard man :)' #but is also like. 'you will not see the wife touch her smell nor hear her. she will not perceive you even if you stand before her.' until he #apologises and fixes it. #pride and prejudice #jane austen extended universe #mr darcys dad jokes
