What can I tell you? Life in the wide world goes on much as it has this past Age. Full of its own comings and goings. Scarcely aware of the existence of Hobbits. For which I am very thankful.

Men: *letting me down since age 15*

Me, over the years, patching myself up with Jane Austen:

[keri-russell]

“Jo is a girl with a boy’s name, Laurie is a boy with a girl’s name,” Gerwig said. “In some ways they are each other’s twins.” Leaning into this, the film’s costume director Jacqueline Durran had the two actors subtly exchange items of clothing throughout the movie, further blurring the lines between where Jo begins and Laurie ends. –Why Timothée Chalamet & Saoirse Ronan Swapped Clothes On The Set Of Little Women

he’s such a loser

It seems like a good 50% of Poldark is just people standing on clifftops or rocky beaches and staring moodily out at the sea and honestly I have zero problems with that

Brief 5x08 thoughts

(while the denial is strong enough to think)

Wow. Shortest hour of my entire life. How is it already over?

I am happy. Heart full, and singing happy. Could some little things (Carolight baby…) have been added, absolutely, but I am thrilled.

Everyone legitimately destroyed me with their acting this week. Seriously. EVERY SINGLE PERSON. 

First of all, Ross. I had my doubts about this arc, but it was actually really well done, and we got to see Ross show some emotional vulnerability when confronted with the consequences of his actions. “Do I love her?!” That was so gorgeous.

Demelza feeling sorry for Tess despite everything. I can’t deal with her soft heart. Honestly. Her quick thinking with the french guy, that was brilliant. But the lingering doubts and pain she’s had all these years coming up again. Ugh. I’m so unbelievably happy with the way things ended for her and Ross. They are finally at that place; true trust and belief in one another.

Dwight. His reaction to Caroline’s reminder of Keren, calling out Ross for what happened with Elizabeth. Just incredible. Yet still he supported his friend, as he always will. Luke was just sublime, wasn’t he?! Dwight’s care for not just Ross, but Demelza, was shown so perfectly tonight. So sensitively. And the culmination of the series long Carolight arc was rather lovely. I have no doubt that a Sophie Enys swiftly followed the conclusion of the series. They just happened to talk about it off screen.

CAROLINE. I have no words. I literally gasped when she brought up Keren, a little below the belt, no? Her uncertainty in asking to hold Loveday, her honesty when talking to Dwight afterwards. She’s a dream.

George. Warleggan. What an ending. I couldn’t have asked for better, truly. It was a nice turnaround for him, yet still allowed him to be true to himself. That final scene of him leaving Trenwith got me good. 

Morwenna Carne is truly the great fictional love of my life (sorry Bilbo, you’ve been replaced!). The way she was comforting Geoffrey Charles at the beginning, her friendship with Rosina (and they way they’ve both been mature enough to move past what could’ve been real awkwardness over Drake - props to Debbie for that one, the alternative could’ve been an easy trap to fall into). Her bravery despite going into labour with only Rosina there (can you believe Demelza didn’t bring Dwight with her?? Leave Hanson, honestly!). She was so happy and truly thriving this episode. I am so unbelievably proud of her and will always love her with my entire heart. Ellise has done such a fabulous job.

Drake’s reaction to the birth was everything I could have ever hoped for. Kinda wish he’d had a scene with GC, since he’s been through such a similar *side eyes* situation, but I’ll take what I was given. Basically, he’s sunshine, and I’m so happy for him and Morwenna. And their little Loveday.

Sam. You’re an idiot, and don’t really deserve Rosina. But I won’t lie, Tom’s acting got me good when Rosina asked if they could be engaged again. What angels. 

Rosina Hoblyn is an angel. Truly.

Kinda upset that Tess never got any sort of comeuppance. Still, having your heart broken, and by Ross Poldark has gotta suck.

ZACKY MARTIN I LOVE YOU. 

I’m going to miss this so much. I’m still not ready to say good bye and never will be. These characters and this story have quite frankly saved me in so many ways. I will always love them and this story.
