“[…] scarcely ten days had passed since Fanny had been in the agitation of her first dinner-visit, when she found herself in an agitation of a higher nature, watching in the hall, in the lobby, on the stairs, for the first sound of the carriage which was to bring her a brother.

It came happily while she was thus waiting; and there being neither ceremony nor fearfulness to delay the moment of meeting, she was with him as he entered the house, and the first minutes of exquisite feeling had no interruption and no witnesses, unless the servants chiefly intent upon opening the proper doors could be called such. […]

It was long before Fanny could recover from the agitating happiness of such an hour as was formed by the last thirty minutes of expectation, and the first of fruition; it was some time even before her happiness could be said to make her happy, before the disappointment inseparable from the alteration of person had vanished, and she could see in him the same William as before, and talk to him, as her heart had been yearning to do through many a past year. That time, however, did gradually come, forwarded by an affection on his side as warm as her own, and much less encumbered by refinement or self-distrust. She was the first object of his love, but it was a love which his stronger spirits, and bolder temper, made it as natural for him to express as to feel.”

“I shall not renew the sentiments that were so… disgusting to you. But if I may, I will address the two offenses you have led against me. My father loved Mr. Wickham as a son and consequently left him a generous living. But upon my father’s death, Mr. Wickham announced he had no intention of taking orders. He demanded the value of the living which he was given and which he gambled away within weeks. He then wrote demanding more money which I refused, after which he severed all acquaintance. He came back to see us last summer at which point he declared passionate love for my sister whom he tried to persuade to elope with him. She is to inherit 30,000 pounds. When it was made clear he would never receive a penny of that inheritance, he disappeared. I will not attempt to convey the depth of Georgiana’s despair. She was fifteen years old. As to the other matter—that of your sister and Mr. Bingley—though the motives which governed me may to you appear insufficient, they were in the service of a friend.”

ooc – okay so I’m not entirely sure what I’m doing here, I know I’ve gotten a few messages for plotting. But I’m just not in this right now. I’ve been kind of really busy with real life. I just don’t know. I’m still lurking periodically, but I’m generally just not interested right now and forcing it is worse just not going to happen. Well I think this is bye for now, but you guys know me; i’ll be back eventually. — and I will be lurking, just not actively writing.

Mr. Darcy soon drew the attention of the room by his fine, tall person, handsome features, noble mien, and the report which was in general circulation within five minutes after his entrance, of his having ten thousand a year. The gentlemen pronounced him to be a fine figure of a man, the ladies declared he was much handsomer than Mr. Bingley, and he was looked at with great admiration for about half the evening, till his manners gave a disgust which turned the tide of his popularity; for he was discovered to be proud; to be above his company, and above being pleased; and not all his large estate in Derbyshire could then save him from having a most forbidding, disagreeable countenance, and being unworthy to be compared with his friend.

I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look, or the words, which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun.
