Summer 1890 ✿ Gentlemen’s club
For Cornelius, a good sunday is only the ones with meetings from the Brindleton gentlemens club over at the Gilded Hotel.
Where the honorable men of the town get together to gamble, try the best of drinks and food, talk about business and the latest news (or gossip, although they don't admit to it being called that) and the occasional tenis game.
at this week's meeting, Lawrence Bridleton pushed Cornelius aside to invite him and his family to tea in order to discuss the upcoming birthdays of their young daughters.

Summer 1890 ✿ Pond afternoons
Ophelia, Diane and Clyde have been spending sun soaked afternoons at the pond since their teenage years, and today was as perfect as every other time they've been here together
After much playing and relaxing Diane had to go and left Ophelia and Clyde on their own, they chatted away on their favourite spot - a lonely bench perched on a cliff looking over the sea - and Ophelia tried to pretend she didn't sense something else other then friendship going around...
People always told her that Clyde had interest in her and how much of a beautiful couple they would make, but she never took it seriously... he was her best friend, they practically grew up together. Ophelia was always dreaming about love, but never even considered that it might have been right by her side this whole time.
Later in the week Ophelia invited Diane over to talk about her and Clyde. Diane told her she always thought he liked her, but she should be careful, especially with her mother -who could never know they were left alone on the pond.

(and they were roommates)
the concept of late victorian men obsessing over ‘old’ penny dreadfuls, vampires, and pride and prejudice has me messed up
