#nobody watches Regency romance to experience their own everyday life and their own everyday language

[marzipanandminutiae]

“but a heartbeat ago, there were no two souls more in rhythm that Wentworth and I”

“now...we’re exes”

you had the yearning there for a hot second

and then you slaughtered it with a single word

nice job

#jane austen's fleabag #nobody watches Regency romance to experience their own everyday life and their own everyday language #we watch it to try and feel something we find lacking in the modern world (for all its very real improvements) #and that's what I feel like this movie really doesn't get with its modernity and arch asides
