At last it arrested her—and she beheld a striking resemblance of Mr. Darcy, with such a smile over the face, as she remembered to have sometimes seen, when he looked at her.
Mr. Darcy is smiling in his portrait
Elizabeth finally realizes that he's been smiling AT HER
THE WHOLE TIME
HE LOVED HER THAT WHOLE TIME
HE WASN'T STARING AT HER TO FIND SOME SORT OF FAULT AND LAUGH AT IT, HE WAS LOOKING AT HER WITH LOVE.
FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY GIVE US AN ADAPTATION WHERE DARCY SMILES AT HER AT NETHERFIELD SO ELIZABETH KNOWS WHAT HIS FREAKING SMILE LOOKS LIKE!!!
Was trying to teach myself how to draw the Slayer form, ended up making a Vat’il variant (also have a non bloodied version, who looks a little goofy lololol)
I know some folks have been saying “Ed wanted to die in the same place he laid next to Stede-“ WRONG! HE WANTED TO DIE WHERE STEDE LAID NEXT TO HIM!!!
The place Auntie points out as being where his head was crushed by the cannon ball is the exact spot where Stede’s head had been during the arrest and that’s even more insane than the first option.
(Anyway, I wanted to correct that assumption. It’s only a matter of like 2 feet, but I still find it an important detail, and figured a visual might help!)
Actually I really wanted to post this now 💀💀 anyways, Rusl gets bitten by a skulltula (it’s not venomous don’t worry, they’re just assuming it is), Benji is a menace, Talon is sick and tired of everything, and Benji continues to be a menace.
