THEY ARE SOOO CUTE 😍🥰

[anotherapologist]

Mrs. Gardiner said 💬 I might find🗺️ you here. 📍

Miss Bennet, 👩I—😗

Where ⁉️ have you been?🤨

Yorkshire.🐏🏡🖼️

😠What do you mean Yorkshire?🐏🏡🖼️ You can’t🚫 just say 🤷‍♀️Yorkshire.🤷‍♀️

As if Yorkshire is an entirely reasonable👎 explanation for your very sudden💥 and somewhat lengthy🕰️ disappearance.🫥After what you said 💬 🥺—I’m sorry😞 Mary please 🙏 please let me explain 😮‍💨

Well 🤨 you’re here now.👇 Mr Hayward. 👨‍🦱🎩 Do go on.🧍‍♀️🧍‍♂️

When we were in the Lakes,🛶💕 the legal matter that Mr. Ryder🙇‍♂️ asked me to attend to was his inheriting💰😳 the fortune of Lady Catherine de Bourgh.👵🏰

And I knew🤝💔 quite clearly😞 from Ryder’s incredibly irritating 😠behaviour that he had a liking for you,🫵 as I also had. 💔As I also have.🥺

It is such a liking,💕 in fact,☝️ that when I learned🧠 of Mr. Ryder’s good fortune💸 and his plan📋 to make you an offer of marriage,💍 I thought…💭 I thought😔 it in your best interest🫶 that I graciously step👞 aside.✌️😢

Nevertheless,🙅‍♂️ my actions in the mountains—⛰️

You🫵 thought💭⁉️ it in my best interests🤨 to graciously step aside?😠 So your disappearance🫥 was, in fact,☝️ you🫵 being gracious🕊️ to me?🙄

👊 ah!😮 🖐️💥 ah! Miss—🫨

You👨‍🦱🎩 and Mr. Ryder,🤦‍♂️💰 👉between you,👈 thought🙄 that you would just decide✅ on my fate🎱 and I would just accept👍 it?🙅‍♀️

Like I’m a grateful cat?!🐈

If you put it like that,🤔 it does not sound good.😰 

Why❓ didn’t you just ask🧐 me what I thought?💭

I was reading📖 between the lines.📊😐

There were no❌lines📊, Mr. Hayward!👨‍🦱🎩

📣THERE🚫WERE🚫NO🚫LINES!❌📊❌

I know☹️ I will never🙅‍♂️ be able to offer🤲 you what Mr. Ryder can.😔

I have had to work💪 for everything🙌 that I have,💷 and… and I thought😗 you deserved👑 better than that…That you🥺 deserved better than me.😭

But now I realise,💡 I will not know🧐 what you want unless I ask.😤

So I must👊 tell you🗣️ I cannot offer🫴 you great wealth💰—or Italy🇮🇹—but I can offer🤲 you my love❤️ and my devotion🤝. And my hope🤞 to build a family🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒 one day.☀️

Mr. Hayward🥺… if you had asked❓me what I wanted,💝 I would have told🗣️ you🫵 I never wanted Mr. Ryder.🙅‍♀️ I have ❌never❌ loved Mr. Ryder.❌

I ❤️love you.🫰🥹 I have only☝️❗️ever❗️loved❗️you.😚💕

😍I love🥹you💞

I have always♾️ loved you🥰 from the very first 1️⃣ time I caught 👀 you playing graces🎀 on your own,🧍‍♀️ when you thought no one was at home.☺️

I have spent my life on the outside🪟 of things,🔒 but with you😮‍💨 I am right in the middle📍 of it all.💓

Mary Bennet,🙋‍♀️📚 would you do me👨‍🦱🎩 the very great honour🏅 of becoming my wife?👰‍♀️🤞

Yes.😍 Yes.💋‼️

That was a yes,👍 by the way, Mr. Hayward,🙌 in case you didn’t catch it.😉😘

Mary,🥰🌹 I think now that we have kissed☝️💋 you could probably call me Tom.🤵‍♂️😍💖

This is brilliant 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

‘Mr Bennet, I have something to tell you. I’m afraid it’s very provoking news. Would you like to know what it is?’ Mr Bennet lowered his paper and looked over it evenly at his wife. ‘Whatever my wishes in the matter, I am sure you intend to tell me.’ ‘Mary needs spectacles. The oculist says she cannot see without them. There, Mr Bennet!’ She looked about her with the consciousness of having delivered a very significant and troubling piece of information.

It was Elizabeth who spoke first. ‘Surely, Mama, it is good to know what can be done to help Mary. If she needs spectacles, ought she not have them? It must be very hard for her to struggle on without them if she cannot see as well as she should.’

Mrs Bennet uttered a stricken little cry. ‘Really, Lizzy, what can you mean? It is a dreadful misfortune for her! Spectacles are for doddering old men, not for young girls of eighteen! I refuse to believe that she really needs them. No one in my family has ever been so afflicted before. We Gardiners all have perfect sight.’ ‘But, Mama,’ continued Elizabeth, ‘you do so little close work and read so rarely that you may not know whether you need them or not.’

‘How can you say such a thing! No one enjoys a book more than I do. “Read so rarely”, indeed!’ ‘You are forgetting, my dear, that I myself wear glasses,’ added Mr Bennet. ‘I should not like to think of myself as an old man, doddering or otherwise, but I admit I should be quite incapable of study without them.’

‘You are teasing me, Mr Bennet, but you know the truth of what I say. A man may wear spectacles, I suppose, even a young man, especially if he is a lawyer or a clergyman or suchlike, and no one will speak ill of him. For a young woman it is quite a different thing. What do you think people will say when they see Mary in them? Who will want to marry her then?’

Mr Bennet looked thoughtful. ‘Perhaps one of those very men you have just described will offer for her, a wearer of spectacles himself, boldly indifferent to the scorn of all the neighbourhood. Indeed, it may be the very thing that brings them together.’

I've read this poem a thousand times. Sitting here, I finally feel its true power.

Tom is like

[eddie-redcliffe]

I bumped into Ann Baxter on the way here. I'm sorry, Mr. Hayward. I understand you must be suffering terribly.

[fleurdemiel-145]

I love how he's debating how to politely say 'I don't care actually since I want to be with you', but it might not be very appropriate to blurt it out 🤣

Inside he's like :

[eddie-redcliffe]

It's the female gaze, isn't it?

[fleurdemiel-145]

I'm crying 🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭

[eddie-redcliffe]

I'm sorry. I cannot do this anymore. My circumstances have changed. Please forgive me, Miss Bennet.

[eddie-redcliffe]

I do not know, Miss Bennet. But I use the words of others to puzzle through things I do not understand.

[fleurdemiel-145]

Those fluffing long lashes.

No Notes | The Other Bennet Sister (2026)

[fleurdemiel-145]

The 3rd gif makes me think of Jane after she said goodbye to Tarzan and kept looking at her hand for his touch 🖤

"Every gesture, every move that she makes, makes me feel like never before. Why do I have, this growing need to be beside her."

[selene-moonie]

Now I don't know if Miss Mary Bennet is autistic, but if a man kept looking at me like this I'd be inclined to think he had some sort of interest in me. Like at least some sort of interest

[fleurdemiel-145]

I am neurodivergent and yes. If I was Mary, I would have never guessed it was for me. Especially since I've seen Ann, and that I look nothing like her. I'm hopeless. I'd just appreciate the view 😆

The sluttiest thing a man can do is smile so hard he has smiles lines all over his face

The sluttiest thing a man can do is cry while offering his love
