Forgive me, I have been very remiss in the proper attentions of a partner. What are they? Oh, I ask you how long you have been in Bath, have you been to the theatre and the concert, and so on.

Okay, all those who do not accept Henry Tilney Supremacy, so in this chapter we learn that Henry was sent ahead by his father to find lodgings (which makes sense because we later learn the General is super picky). So Henry comes to Bath for a few days we can assume to look at places, and what does he do in the evening? He attends a ball. And what does he do at that ball? He asks the master of ceremonies to introduce him to a girl who isn't dancing and then is just so freaking friendly and charming.

What do you want women? Do you want a man who was dragged to a ball, is so profoundly rude that people don't even care how wealthy he is, and then calls you "tolerable"? Or do you want a man who goes to a ball by himself, for fun, and then does a comedy bit on the spot, requests that you write about him favourably in your diary, and then discusses fabric washing with your chaperone?

I know what I'm picking!

i'm such a huge fucking fan of having and using magic requiring effort. whether mental, physical, or both. i'm so fond of magic systems that make you sweat, bleed, cry and get your hands dirty when you use them. i love it when powers are earned, not inherent, through years of study and/or exercizing them like a muscle. and i love it when a seemingly effortless display of power is terrifying because of this.

Like omfg guys you don't even get it. Set designer Hans Schavernoch went "to symbolise the kitschified spectacle people made of empress Elisabeth's life we will put in a bunch of circus/funfair stuff like spinning mirrors, carousels, ferris wheels, bumper cars, gigantic crowns and cash registers and such :)"

Except for Schatten 1 & 2 we will put an exact replica of the funeral hearse used to transport these people's corpses IRL. Hope that helps xx

LIKE THEY TOOK THIS FROM US!!! They took this from us and replaced it with a cringefail potocopy winged boat and/or mark seibert with a whip!!!! Murder!!!!!! Murder!!!! Robbery!

Not getting over this anytime soon. The aggressive Symbolism (tm) of it... in scenes with this set Rudolf is literally one foot in the grave (or rather, sitting or lying down right where his coffin will be)
