things in 19th century novels that bring me an immense amount of joy
a passive aggressive pianoforte moment
any country dance scene
flower symbolism
the love interest telling the heroine he loves her mid panic attack
a women rejecting a marriage proposal from a man she hates
hands
when lore gets dropped via letter
and, most importantly, the First Name Drop™
