just out of curiosity are u gonna be updating 101 ways to get a girlfriend again?
Oh 😭 this question 👉👈
Ok so here's the deal, my dumbass started the smau right after my 12th finals thinking I would have all the free time in the world to get to this
But guess what your girl forgot abt her entrance exams 🚶🏾♀️so my exam prep began and I became busy, then came uni interviews and results - fast forward to me going away to uni and an overwhelming 1st sem
Anyway what I mean it, life became too hectic that I actually forgot the smau even existed, until like, quite recently when I clocked in to see what was tumblr on abt - a few days later is when this ask came
Uh so in conclusion, I honestly don't know, I feel like the almost 9month gap made me lose my interest in it - however not to the point that i would delete it or say, never continue it again
Hope that made sense🧎🏽♀️

A/N : yes the "eye" in the pfp of the @iSPY account is from Duskwood ;)
@decelisacademy
-> the official twitter account for Decelis Academy operated by the faculty of Decelis
-> got much heat after it failed to address a recent incident in time, after it got accused of trying to sweep the incident under the rug
@iSPY
-> an anonymous public account that came up after a recent incident at Decelis - it seeks to give its followers all the recent updates following the event that the academy tried so hard not to bring to light
-> there is currently no information as to who runs this account, whether they are a part of the faculty or student body - only known fact is whoever they are, they too are behind the Academy gates!

the faculty
¤ LEE HEESEUNG
A manager and co-coach of the rugby team at Decelis, the life he is currently living wasn't always what he had assumed he would do in the future. He was a promising professional rugby athlete until he fell prey to an unfortunate accident which took it away from him. Regardless, he still wanted to be somewhat or the other associated with the sport. As such, he applied to Decelis, which on taking into account his experience promptly accepted him offering him a joint position in its premises.
☆ He was orphaned at an young age and was taking care of his younger sister, who was also a student at Decelis until her death a few years ago - he moved out of the studio apartment he shared with his sister and now lives alone in the faculty housing provided by the academy year around. It of no surprise that his sister's death had hit him hard and apparently had started going to therapy.
¤ KANG JIHYO
One of the many professors of chemistry at Decelis. She is fairly young as compared to the other professors and was previously a honor student and the ex-president of the student council. Hence it was of no surprise when she was offered to take on the job as a professor of chemistry, her area of expertise. One could assume that she would have been subjected to unsavory looks and opinions due to joining the teaching faculty at such a tender age of 24 but it cannot be far from the truth - in Decelis, to be even considered a 'the fastpass for employment' takes immense amount of commitment and effort - often leaving the applying candidate burnt out if they don't have enough dedication to keep on going.
☆ She is insanely good in chemistry. It is said that she was offered full employment at Decelis at the first go, despite its age old practice to provide temporary employment (to its fresh out of university students) to observe whether the candidates were a fit for the esteemed Decelis faculty.
¤ CHOI MINHO
One of the many professors of literature at Decelis. Strangely enough, despite teaching at Decelis for the past 6 years, nobody really knows much about him. He had always kept to himself ever since he joined the faculty, and by the looks of it there isn't any chance of that changing. He isn't really in friendly terms with most of his colleagues - or for the use of a better term, most would only consider him as an acquaintance, nothing more and nothing less.
☆ Rumour is that he is the principal's son - but here's the thing, an illegitimate one out of an affair. But that's all there is to it and people have refuted the "theory", as one may refer to it as. However behind all this denial, it still lingers in the air and in conversations whenever he is bought up and no one knows for sure who was the culprit behind it starting in the first place.

the students
¤ Y/N
The current vice president of the organising committee at Decelis Academy. She is pretty good in studies and is well liked by her teachers because of her ability to get work done upto the standard regardless of how less time she has (in truth she is just a chronic procrastinator). She initially decided to apply to the organising committee mainly because she didn't have any interest in joining the already existing clubs at Decelis - over the course of time though, she genuinely started to enjoy working there and was promoted as vice president after a little over two and a half years of joining. Overall a nice and responsible person; cares deeply about the few close friends she has.
☆ She had a brother who also attended Decelis Academy but had lost his life 4 years ago due to a freak accident.
¤ REI
The current president of the organising committee of Decelis Academy. She is a hardworker and is quite known for her work ethic. Initially had problems fitting in since she was Japanese, so took in upon herself to learn basic Korean to strike up simple conversations. She wasn't part of any club at the beginning so and helped out whenever any club needed a few extra hands to organise any event, big or small - the teacher's took notice of her responsible nature & her organising abilities, and recommended her to apply for the organising committee at Decelis - she did and was promoted to president after about two years of joining. This is also where she met yn, who soon became a close friend of hers after the many hours they spent working together in the committee.
☆ She recently had to leave the academy dorms to go back home - apparently had something urgent to attend to. Ever since she came back though, she has been a bit jumpy.
¤ SUNOO
The current student supervisor of the tour office in Decelis Academy. Very sociable and a literal ball of sunshine making even the most reserved person be at ease with him - maybe that's why he was suggested to apply to the tour office. Initially the tour office didn't have a student supervisor, but the principal choose to take a risk and appointed Sunoo to the post after a year of joining the office - it worked out better than expected. All the important visitors to the academy were now personally attended to by Sunoo, with the principal there only as his supervisor in name - the visitors always seemed to be impressed at his ability to make easy conversation at any topic even with basic knowledge without making it awkward - all in all, it helped maintain a good image about the student body at Decelis. Is also a close friend of Rei & Yn's.
☆ Due to his amiable nature and the frequent interactions with people in general, he has quite a few connections both within and outside Decelis.
¤ BEOMGYU
Popularly known as the flowerboy of Decelis, definitely not an official position but one that is quite influential in terms of popularity throughout the academy. He is a goofy guy who loves to tease and have fun with his friends - surprisingly enough though, he is actually quite a good student, obedient and responsible when it comes to his studies and his attitude towards his professors. Despite having the looks, height, a good voice and the popularity that came with it, he never looked down on anyone and although reserved around new people, had good relations with them regardless of them being a part of his friend group or not.
☆ The younger of the two sons of THE CHOI family has been known to be enamored with music since he was born, a "natural born" musician, as he was referred to. He has won quite a few awards and was a national phenomenon making his name in the international domain, to put it lightly - however that is as far as it went, he is said to not have to best relationship with his parents who, while they did set up the best coaches for him in music did not support it as his future career.
¤ LIA
The Queen B and batch representative of her batch at Decelis. The demands and wants of her batch go through her for review before being submitted to the student council for action. Her parents own an international clothing brand, making her rich on top of being smart and pretty - given these qualities, one would think her to be aloof and vain but would be pleasantly surprised to know that she has an overall laid back personality willing to share smiles with anyone who is willing to do the same.
☆ She will do anything to maintain her picture perfect reputation, not that she needs to do anything really - she is already perfect enough !
¤ KARINA
The current president of the dance club at Decelis Academy . She has been a dedicated member of the dance trope at the Decelis branch of educational institutes since a mere age of 6 (that is, upon joining the Decelis Elementary School for the first time). With the credits she has accumulated over the years with her participation in the various dance competitions representing Decilis, she hopes to go on and become a choreographer at Decilis and from there on, open her own studio after having acquired the experience and exposure Decilis provides. She was made the president of the dance club after a year of joining the Academy due to her experience and expertise in the field.
☆ Her family's financial conditions are not the best so her parents understandably wanted her to choose a more 'reliable' career path - were against her career for quite a while before coming to terms with it slowly, after she assured them of the temporary position provided to few students to become a part of the faculty - which usually does end in getting the permanent placement.

which one of u was going to tell me that tea tastes different if u put it in hot water?
y- you were putting it in cold water?????
Radish. Answer the question radish.
yeah??? i thought for like. 5 years that ppl just put it in hot water 2 speed up the tea-ification process didn’t realize there was an actual reason
You dont have the patience to microwave water for 3 minutes???
[ID: Tags reading “u think i have the patience to boil water wtf ?????” /End ID]
why are you. putting it in the microwave to boil it
Do you think I have the patience to boil water on the stove
Its takes less than a minute
Bestie is ur stovetop powered by the fucking sun
How long does it take you to boil a cup of water on the stove
Like seven minutes
Just stick the mug on top of the stove on medium heat n it boils in like two minutes… less than that is u use a saucepan…
Crying you’re putting the whole mug on the stove ???? On medium heat???? Ur stove is enchanted
Every single person in this post is a fucking lunatic
Yet another post that reads like four shakespeare characters who come out in the middle of the play to talk about something completely unrelated for comic relief
(Enter RADISHN’T, MOTHMAN MISATO, BOIMG FROG and CATS'N RAINCOATS, stage left. They are having a HEATED DISCUSSION.)
RADISHN’T: Prithee, which one of you had planned to tell
Of diff'rent flavours gained by simple act
Of brewing tea with water hot, not cold?
MOTHMAN: Egad! you poured the water cold? Wherefore?!
FROG: An answer from you, Radish, I must beg.
RADISHN’T: Indeed I did, dear friends - why does this shock?
Without the guide of others I assumed
That heat was merely added for the sake
Of expediting this solution’s brewing!
Half a decade I have spent, or more,
Not questioning this worldview I had made.
In fact, I am myself a bit surprised
That you might think that I, your dearest friend,
Might have a patience of sufficient stock
To wait until a pot of water boils.
FROG: Three minutes overtaxes patience so?
The microwave will beep when it is done!
CATS'N: My friend, this answer vexes me the more!
Can it be true that thou dost boil by nuke?!
FROG: Are you in turn, my friend, so shocked to know
That I have not the patience, like our Root,
To boil upon the stove our favour’d drink?
CATS'N: It takes less than a minute!
FROG: On what plate?
Perhaps your dinner cooks atop the sun?
CATS'N: How long can take your stove to fill the task
Of boiling but a single cup alone?
FROG: In minutes?
CATS'N: Yes!
FROG: I counted seven, once.
CATS'N: Perhaps you ought to have your timepiece checked!
If on a middle heat you place the cup
You soon will have the scalding drink you crave.
Two minutes, in a mug upon the plate
Or even less, if you should have a pot.
FROG: You cause me tears - is this how thou dost live?
You place upon the iron stove a mug?
A mug, ceramic, filled with water cold?
How do these flames, though medium in height,
Not shatter like a glass this fragile thing?
Surely, then, your kitchen is bewitched
With magicks far beyond the mortal ken!

World Heritage Post
I can't believe this topic even needs a post but here you go anyways *drumroll*
WHY ANTHONY AND EDWINA WOULDN'T HAVE WORKED OUT
AGE GAP
i'm assuming edwina is about 17-18y while anthony is 29-30y, which makes them have a 11-12 year age difference - aka, a huge generation gap
i don't know what else to say except that it's like shipping the current kate(26y) with gregory(14y), considering they have the same age gap as edwina and anthony
(y'all really be shipping a teenager with a grown ass middle aged man huh 🤨 insisting that he found her body hot 🤨👏 jesus)
MATURITY GAP
one of the prime reasons why kathony connected was because both of them were forced to mature themselves too early, as a result they understood and found peace with one another
edwina on the other hand is still a teenage, and would likely go through maturing as a normal person, without the positionboth kate and anthony were thrust into - this in turn, will unfortunately make her unable to connect to anthony for most of her life (if they were to get married)
HEIGHT DIFFERENCE
this is just a personal opinion, but like daphne said, anthony somehow felt like he would suit a person who was more his equal
besides the obvious maturity and age range, one of the other reason why kathony suited each other so much was bcoz of how close in height kate sharma was with anthony
edwina on the other hand, when she stood besides anthony, felt more like a daughter he was about to debut into high society (her soft facial features as compared to kathony further prove this take)
SEXUAL OR ROMANTIC ATTRACTION TOWARDS EACH OTHER
"anthony found edwina hot enough to consider her as a wife"
respectfully please stop
i'm convinced every attempt edwants take to mention how anthony probably found edwina hot is just to convince themselves to stay rooted in their delusions
the only reason anthony 'choose to court' edwina was because she was named the diamond; imo he would have courted anyone in that 💎 position, provided it wasn't eloise, pen or cressida
the closest thing to 'hot' that he thought about edwina is probably that she has a pleasant face - in other words, you can find someone to be good looking but that necessarily doesn't mean you are attracted to them, which is exactly the case for anthony
edwina too, I believe wasn't really interested in anthony beyond him being handsome and being a viscount (pay attention to the proposal scene she says "I'll be your viscountess" instead of just "yes ill marry you" - maybe I'm looking too much into this but it felt like she was primarily more interested at the life a viscountess had to offer than in anthony)
moreover, you can see in all their scenes together (which again, was always chaperoned), there is never really any sexual tension or romantic feelings in the air - wherever they talked, the most it felt like it was an amiable friendship or I dare say, acquaintance
DIFFERENT TEMPERAMENTS
if you haven't already noticed, anthony and edwina are quite different in their temperaments
let's take for eg. anthony has a natural inclination to be competitive, on the other hand, edwina rather be in a environment which is cooperative
anthony is a bit brazen, once he puts his mind to something no one can stop him from acting towards it, even if the ton deems it to be scandalous - as long as he knows his cause to be right, he could care less about what the ton of him
edwina, on the other hand schools her behavior to fit the ton - she is calculated in the way that she knows she has to put on pretenses to fit in and survive within the tons judgement - you can see in various scenes whenever she is uncomfortable or upset, she hardly ever let's it show in her tone, chooses instead to be polite in all her interactions with the society
now one can say opposites attract, however in real life such marriages or relationships do not really last long - all healthy relationships need both partners to have something in common, be it their personality or their interests - for edwina and anthony, one of the only legit thing they had in common from the start was the death of their fathers at a young age
this is why I think, their marriage would have been doomed from the start - things would have been a bit different if they had even a bit of spark between them, but they didn't - if married, anthony would have been distant and miserable and edwina would have been lonely and miserable
the only saving garce would have been a child between them, but knowing anthony, he would have either not touched her (and put his brothers children as the inheritors of the viscountcy) or even if he did, he would have done it quickly while imagining someone else, wishing that when the child was born it shared the blood of someone else (and honestly yall have to be too cruel to wish this upon someone)
FAMILY BONDING
all throughout the show we have seen that, despite his sometimes dickish behavior, he cares about his family quite deeply, sacrificing most of his youth to take care of the viscountcy so that none of his family members feel loss of their father, atleast in financial terms
in the mere age of 18, he made sure that none felt the need to give up the life they previously had just because their father was not there anymore - he made sure all of them lived comfortably while still maintaining the level of influence they had while the 9th viscount was still alive - he did that all because he wanted the others to suffer just a little less than him
so it isn't surprising that he would want someone who would get along with his family and match the sort of wild spirit they seemed to have - I can give you my word, diamond or not he wouldn't have married someone who didn't care or his family didn't approve of (imo kate was the only unique case, if he would have to marry, it would be kate or no one else)
edwina, while everyone did treat her with respect and care - the bridgerton siblings were awkward with her, simply bcoz their vibes didn't match, they were somewhat too competitive even for trivial things than what she would have expected or been comfortable with - and honestly no can can blame her for this; people are complex, you either hit it off or you don't, there's no in between - if you don't have the spark now, chances are you won't have it even if you have known or met them a whole lot of times
so yes, if they did marry, edwina would have been a bit lonely since she was unable to connect with the family well as she would have liked - the only companion she might have had from the bton siblings would have been francesca, who seemed to be somewhat quiet, a little less competitive and bold unlike her brothers and sisters
ANTHONY'S PRIORITY
it seemed incredibly clear by the end of the season that kate to anthony was as much important to him as his family, if not more
his family was in the brink of ruin, with not one but two big scandals threatening to forever change the social footing they had in the ton - but for the first time anthony didn't care, he danced with kate in front of the entire tons judgement - he knew just how scandalous that was but he was ready to do it all for kate
so it is a good thing, I assure you, that kate was a good person who cared and got along with his family as much as anthony did
now let me ask you
would he have given up this much for edwina? unfortunately no - he would have ofcourse provided and cared for her if he had been his wife, but! he would have never put her needs above his family (if you still think he would have done so - sorry, he wouldn't have, yall are just in denial at this point)
That's it for now - go ahead and add more points if anyone wants 🤞
Kathony aside why did Edwina want to marry Anthony at all
If my sibling who raised me for more than 10 years didn't like who was courting me plz I'd drop them so fast-
Ep2
But no she gets flattered and even stands up for the man who humiliated and made a fool of her 'precious sister' (ironic bcoz it has been shown time and again how important her sister's blessing was to him but yeah 💀 go off about how consistent her characterisation is ig)
Also it's not like they'd known each other for years for her to stand up for her after that scheme he pulled with Kate
She had one dance for a few mins during the conservatory ball and sat through a horse race together (where again he spent most time bickering with Kate instead) so yeah 😭 make it make sense? I'll gladly wait
Will also never get over her ep6 girlboss speech she speaks about how love it what she wants and it was clear anthony couldn't give it to her
I kid you not I was like 🤚🤨 hold up' shit ain't adding up MF WAS KATE TALKING TO A BRICK WALL 😭
(they butchered her character I'll never forgive them for it 🤷🏽♀️)
They didn't butcher her character.
You said that you wouldn't get with a man your sibling disapprove but what about Kate's lies and deception to Edwina? That's not sibling behavior either.
The double standards are unbelievable and when will people start blaming the only person responsible for all this mess: Anthony. Not Edwina and not Kate.
@vanillacookies
Respectfully, when I mean they butchered her character I compare her with how she was in the books
Imo out of all the characters from TVWLM (book), she was one of my favs - I not only loved edwina as a character but also her relationship with Kate - even with her few scenes that she had, she managed to catch my attention solely bcoz of how wholesome she was
Now they push aside this characterisation of Edwina to give us whatever the hell the show gave us and for whatttt?? (if bridgerton ruined one of ur favs with bad writing I don't think you would be celebrating either)
With the excuse of making her less of a plot device than in the books they made her foundation of being a plot device even more stronger - so yes, I'm rightfully angry at how they butchered her character
Also who says I don't blame Anthony? - half of the shit that took place is his fault
I'm assuming you didn't visit my blog bcoz if you did I have already put down my thoughts in brief on how after all that shit anthony did nobody ever blames him as much
You can find it here
(While you at it - read the comments too - cause many people also feel the same abt anthony)

BRIDGERTON S2 opinions
(everyday I wake up and find inconsistencies about the 2nd season of bridgerton as a kathony stan)
THE KATE BLAMING AGENDA
This time it's about the most controversial ep in the season.
I want to bring attention to this line ->
S2, ep6, 23:41 s
(the short confrontation between Kate and Edwina after she runs away from the alter)
Edwina to Kate: you have feelings for him!
This particular sentence just made no sense to me? And this is coming from someone who has repeated the entire scene (from the wedding to the confrontation) a number of times solely to understand how she came to the particular conclusion (and being unsuccessful at every attempt btw)
Yes, while the conclusion itself is correct - the way she came to it had basically no substance at all ( it very honestly made me remember those math questions in exams where you get the correct answer but with the absolute random steps)
Why i think so?
Bcoz all throughout the scene it was Anthony who did all the shit that eventually made Edwina figure out what was going on
1) Staring at Kate who was behind Edwina at the alter instead of focusing on her who was his bride
the archbishop asks anthony to repeat after him but anthony doesn't cause he's busy imagining Kate wearing the wedding dress and marrying him - Edwina notices when she turns to look where Anthony's attention was
2) Not knowing what to do after Edwina break his trance during the wedding
after Anthony had broken the daydream he was in after being caught in 4k by edwina, he basically looks around trying to get an idea what he missed - he fumbles because guess what? this guy who was going to be her husband any minute doesn't know shit about what was going on in his OWN WEDDING
Edwina has to sharply (you can easily see how tense she was here) remind him what he was supposed to do
"Yes ofcourse" he says but doesn't stop looking at Kate
3) PICKING UP THE DAMN BANGLEEEEE
Does it even need an explanation at this point?
Anthony, the same guy who was so listless when his own wedding is going on - but now a bangle falls, Kate's bangle - and his response is prompt
I feel like in this scene he subconsiously just told Edwina, "I don't care how unnecessary this is but I'm gonna do it I'm gonna pick up this damn bangle and no one can stop me"
Like please, Kate is perfectly able to pick up the bangle herself but does he care? No
4) "ALLOW ME"
When both Kate and Anthony are crouched down and Anthony picks up the bangle...
"Allow me" he says as he hands Kate the bangle
This whole ordeal could have been done in 3-4 secs max but it instead takes about 10s max and WHY??? bcoz Anthony is busy staring at Kate again - mans was literally caressing her hand in slowmo 😭 while returning the bangle and didn't let go of it till they were halfway standing up
Now then? What did we find out?
Basically that it was ALL ANTHONY'S ACTIONS
So yes, when I say ep6 was a fever dream that I wished didn't actually happen - its bcoz of these scenes.
But hold on!
It however would have made perfect sense if the sentence was phased like this
"I saw what was going on! He has feelings for you!"
the unspoken words here would have been "I saw those looks! I saw those actions! You have something going on between you both!"
Here I could have actually sympathized with her bcoz she after all felt betrayed - she was about to get married but she finds out her soon to be husband has feelings for her sister? Here she blames Kate, yes - but definitely blames Anthony too (which is again, very different for the og line and the feeling conveyed through it)
But when she says "you have feelings for him!" to Kate, I'm just like
Cause deadass what did Kate even do??? 😭 she was literally just standing there like🧍♀️baby that was all Anthony Hornypants and you know it 🤌
So yeah, when people complain about how we kathony stans are so protective of Kate - do you ever see the senerio from our side? Well I don't think so
Half of this show was basically
BRIDGER -how can we make kate feel bad- TON
And this scene was a prime example of this. Edwina could have gone off on Anthony about his conduct or shown him atleast a fraction of her anger but no 😂 let's blame it all on Kate! Let's let Anthony fuck around and blame it all on Kate.
After all...
It's always easier...
(Phew! that's all - thanks for coming to my rant)
BRIDGERTON S3 predictions
For kathony stans like myself - here's some predictions i have on the our fav couple's screentime in s3.
I know for a fact many kathony stans are waiting for s3 only and only to get a glimpse of married kathony (after being reduced to a subplot in their own season) - but very seriously speaking, being too hopeful about it will only bring us bigger disappointment. Let me explain :
Besides the romance between Penelope and Colin there will be two main important subplots - one involving the featheringtons after the whole cousin Jack fiasco and Colin finding out about the whole scheme (ep8) (which I assume will continue on by showing us how they navigate about the mess and how it affects their societal and personal relationships).
And the other involving the relationship between Penelope and Eloise after she discovers the identity of LW (in ep8) - this ofcourse has the biggest possibility of bringing about the main drama of s3 - considering after all Colin is involved in the whole "romancing thing".
In all these plots, there is, as much as I'd hate to admit, hardly any need of solid kathony screentime (meaning -> they might be in the background but not in the foreground as much we'd like).
The only time kathony is actually needed might be the time when the secret identity of LW is finally revealed to the public and Colin needs the blessings of Anthony to carry on his relationship with Penelope. Also as much I would like it not to be true, there is more chance of just Anthony (with ofcourse some kate in there) than kathony as a whole.
Lastly I can only pray that we get more wholesome kathony scenes (from the total screentime they get) as compared to the whole angst (Anthony refusing to give his blessings to polin due to all the dirty laundry that LW aired which affected the Bridgertons, causing a rift between the brothers) im assuming is gonna come.
YALL I CAN'T-
THEY REALLY DID NECTAR'S HAIR INTO MINI BRAIDS I DIDN'T NOTICE IT TILL NOW ✋😭🐴
BRIDGERTON S2 opinions
After watching bridgerton s2 on repeat - atleast some specific scenes, I have decided that MARY SHARMA WAS A STEPMOTHER.
(I will keep this short)
I want to bring attention to this line ->
ep8 36:36 s (the talk between Kate and Mary after Anthony askes Kate to marry him for the first time)
Mary to Kate: Edwina forgives you, I forgive you
For once let's not talk about Edwina, a teenage girl (who I still have a bone to pick with btw but let's forget abt that for a sec) but Mary, a grown ass woman who doesn't know the harm her words can do.
Why exactly does she say "I forgive you"? In Edwina's case I can understand but Mary? What are you forgiving Kate for?
For carrying on the Sharma family since she was about 18? For still understanding Mary's absentism during this time while she was herself also grieving her father's death? And never ever complaining about it?
For the forced parentification Kate had to go through? Raising Edwina all by herself all these years to the best of her capabilities? Imo excluding her personality, Kate really actually made Edwina one of the most qualified women in the marriage mart based on her skills (which again, she taught Edwina herself.
For managing the whole family's finances? If Mary was atleast helping Kate all these years I can guarantee you Kate would have consultated or atleast told her about the deal with the Sheffields - but since Mary never there to support her, Kate felt responsible for every burden they had. She felt compelled to manage her family out of every situation without anyone's help.
During this time, it was obvious Kate subconsiously wanted to hear Mary say "No its not your fault - you have done everything you could for this family" or atleast smth along those lines. Kate wanted reassurance, she was crying for fuck's sake, she wanted atleast her 'mother' to tell that that she hasn't completely failed her whole family (💔).
But instead what does Mary say? Out of everything she could have said? I FORGIVE YOU
This is basically an indirect way of telling kate "YES I BLAME YOU FOR EVERYTHING BUT I FORGIVE YOU" and I'll never not hate her more.
But what do I hate the most? The absolute lack of genuine female relationships - Edwina wasn't enough, they had to make Mary live up to the STEPMOTHER STEREOTYPE.
GOOD JOB BRIDGERTON!
