— Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

i saw the casting announcement for wuthering heights (2026) before reading the book, and assumed that heathcliff's miscasting was because the character was subtly not white, or it was mentioned here and there without much relevance to the plot beyond subtext, etc. (which still wouldn't have made it ok btw). but now i'm reading it and every single scene with him in it reads like:

'then appeared heathcliff, who was not white. he not-white-ly entered the room, where everyone else was white, unlike him. "aah! a not white!" they all shouted. he cried. "i wish i were white," he said. "don't worry, maybe your non-white parents were rich in non-white countries," said nelly. he was then called ten slurs, because he was not white, and left.'

like emily bronte literally beats us over the head with it every five seconds. what do you MEAN they cast jacob fucking elordi

i know its not really the point of that scene but the patient asking mel what she likes to do (that isnt just something that her sister likes to do) and her hesitating and then finally saying she liked to go to the Renaissance Faire because she liked to play at being someone different and his immediate response being "that's so weird." like 🫵 yeah liquor store robber boy, you better fucking run!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gay, southern, violently depressed, catholic, divorced twice, potentially schizophrenic, has complex feelings about his identity, terrible taste in men… I fear no protagonist has done it quite like him.

It was more tempting than the Collar, Anharion's lips against his, but never like this, sweetly willing. And that thought held him back, even as the kiss seemed to throb between them.
