Hey so I read your "What is a Romance" post and found it very informative so thank you lol. I was confused about one part tho:

Can a romance focus on a beta couple as well? Generally no. In American romance novels, authors do set up the couple for the next installment, but that is not quite the same as page time and development. Romances focus on one couple at a time—once that couple’s love story is done, writers can move on to another couple’s romance. Stories that have more than one couple tend to be something else entirely.

I wanted to know how this related to works like Much Ado About Nothing (Hero and Claudio) or Pride and Prejudice (Jane and Bingley) (though I suppose that last one is a marriage plot so it might not count anyway).. Isn't Much Ado About Nothing a romance that focuses on more then one couple?

I also wanted to know this because I'm working on a romance novel and there was a side couple that i wanted to give attention to.

…I’ve been waiting for someone to ask this question, ha. Knowing all the while that I’d have to give my very unpopular opinion. Well, here it is (and thanks for in advance for being the one to bring it up!)

So no, I don’t categorize Much Ado About Nothing and Pride and Prejudice as romances, not so much because they have a beta couple, but because of their plots and thematic concerns. Much Ado is social comedy/satire and Pride and Prejudice is a wedding plot. Let me explain.

Much Ado About Nothing

Ah, Much Ado. I know people adore Beatrice/Benedick (ditto, they’re great) and feel very uncomfortable with Hero/Claudio (with good reasons). But ultimately neither of these couples constitute a true romance. Their love in the play function as social satire/commentary on the battle of the sexes. Beatrice and Benedick’s respective sexism (Beatrice’s scorn for men and Benedick’s sexism toward women) make them refuse to entertain marriage/romance and shield their obvious attraction for each other. Ultimately, though, their sexism stems not from ideology, but from personal hurt feelings and/or insecurity, so the moment they hear that the other likes them, then they are eager to cast off their previous convictions. Shakespeare even hints that B&B had been a couple before, so their realization that they actually love each other is not really true romantic development. Claudio’s actual sexism, in the meantime, actually does lead him to reject Hero. Though framed as romance plots, these two strands are part of the satiric commentary on sexism and misogyny.

Pride and Prejudice

So yeah, Pride and Prejudice is almost purely a marriage plot. Austen sets up the stakes very early and very clearly: The Bennett sisters must marry or else their estate is entailed to their cousin. But wait! Elizabeth grows to love Darcy, right? She learns she was mistaken about him, right? Isn’t that romantic development?

Well, no. Romantic development would entail mutual attraction on both sides, foiled by obstacles. While Darcy is canonically attracted to Elizabeth, Elizabeth doesn’t even begin to catch feelings until after she realizes that Mr. Darcy was the victim in the Darcy-Wickham scandal and finding out he was the one who forced Wickham to marry Lydia. Oh, and seeing his beautiful estate Pemberley. 😑 Real romantic. Austen even lampshades this by having Elizabeth joke about it!

So yeah, that is not a romance between two people attracted to each other and struggling with their class hang-ups. This is story of a woman learning that this seemingly snobbish rich dude is actually not that bad once you get to know him and his £10,000 a year manor home.

Yes, Austen was obviously inspired by Shakespeare’s Beatrice and Benedick subplot when she wrote Pride and Prejudice. But while Shakespeare focuses on sexism as the obstacle between these lovers (and the mutuality of their attraction), Austen replaces the sexism with classism and class resentment that both characters need to overcome. All well and good, but there is no more mutuality; Mr. Darcy starts to give her 🥺 from the second he notices her fine eyes while Elizabeth flirts with Wickham and still thinks he is a rich asshole for over half the book. Her change of heart is genuine and humbling, but it does not follow that she should start liking Mr. Darcy romantically. She actually doesn’t until at least the Lydia affair.

The fact that Austen gave little consideration to romantic development (there are few if no courtship scenes between the two) leads me to conceive P&P as more of a marriage plot than a romance one. That is the true goal here, not the love. It is merely enough that Mr. Darcy is established as truly a worthy man to marry. Hence, a marriage plot.

(As for Jane/Bingley, it basically functions as 1) a softer iteration of the classism theme and 2) an obstacle to Elizabeth/Darcy. Again, a marriage plot, and not a romance either.)

#much ado about nothing #pride and prejudice #cristina metas #kaleb-is-definitely-sane #ask #cristina has an unpopular opinion #yeah this is going to go over well #but i’ve never been convinced by elizabeth’s love for darcy #homegirl was barely even bothered by her dislike of him #she only truly hated him when she learned what he supposedly did to wickham

Hi sweetheart!

This is re-the anon who said you were a bad writer. First off, anon, you can always just leave and not comment - think about that. I just know if Aaron was dating a writer (of any kind) he would want to read every little word you wrote. He'd blurt out an idea and then be like, "hmmm. that's not very good," but it's brilliant and sweet. He is just your BIGGEST supporter! He'd get you coffee and watch you write in bed. He'd leave you alone and work as a copy editor. He'd just be so happy to be with you and love you.

Now, back to anon. I know you're probably not reading this. But let me just say that writing isn't easy. It takes time and effort both physically and emotionally. It's something you have to work at. Not everyone's writing is for everyone, but that doesn't mean you have to leave mean comments on my friend's work. My friend who is a fantastic and prolific writer by the way.

Katie, I'm sorry that person said that to you. They wanted a reaction and you didn't give it. I love the way you write and I'm thankful to be inspired by you so often! Thank you so much for being you! Love Levi - 🤍

What are your thoughts on Tybalt? I knew before reading that he killed Mercutio and then was killed by Romeo so maybe i went in with some bias. But i wanted Tybalt dead as soon as he stepped on stage. No joke. The moment it said [enter TYBALT] and he started swinging his sword and talking smack i was like “Lord Jesus somebody stab him in the face rn.” This opinion never changes and is only furthered by his treatment of Benvalio in that scene as well as the Masquerade scene and the dual scene. But, i think if anyone could convince me of otherwise, it’d be you 🤭

Lol, I can try. Let me count the ways.

So I was, too, thinking about Tybalt, and I have come to the conclusion that his introduction may just be my favorite Shakespeare character introduction, no joke. I can hardly believe it myself, since Tybalt is such a minor character all things considered, but it’s true:

Tybalt: What, art thou drawn amongst these heartless hinds? Turn thee, Benvolio. Look upon thy death.

Tybalt also shows a modicum of wit when he criticizes Benvolio’s methods of keeping the peace. “What, drawn, and talk of peace? I hate the word / As I hate hell, all Montagues, and thee.”

After that, though, Tybalt becomes more or less regulated to antagonistic catalyst. He does have some good rhyming couplets (“Patience perforce with willful choler meeting / Makes my flesh tremble in their different greeting”). I’d say he is perhaps the most eloquent of Shakespeare’s hothead characters, except that he can’t stand against even Capulet’s bluster (“Why, uncle, ‘tis a shame” 😡 poor bby).

One thing Shakespeare is careful to denote, though, is his commitment to honor and the rules of dueling. He sends Romeo a letter of challenge. When Mercutio tries to antagonize him into a fight, he keeps his cool and doesn’t rise to his bait, but instead is focused on Romeo. When Romeo refuses to duel him, only then does he duel Mercutio instead. In a way, he is undone by his own curious integrity—Romeo dispatches him quickly through sheer rage.

That said, I do agree that Tybalt does get a lot of unjustified love, not just in the fandom but in productions. I’ve noticed that a lot of productions cast Tybalt with a much sexier actor than Romeo, despite the lack of canon evidence. Romeo of course is the much larger and more dynamic role, but I feel if you’re going to include sexy good looking actors, you should do it for all the youths (once again, the French musical is so superior for this). And then there is the anime version.

Like dude. Dude. Why did you go so hard on his design????

I think overall people are responding to the unrealized potential of his character—he does show charismatic flair at the beginning and quietly honorable instincts. And Shakespeare does show discipline and restraint in not rising to Mercutio’s bait. But yeah, most adaptations either go the Totally Evil Antagonist route (ew) or the tragically misunderstood/traumatized one (better, but just depends). You must be the first I’ve heard who disliked him immediately, but then I went into it not knowing he would kill Mercutio. So maybe that does make a difference.

#kaleb-is-definitely-sane #ask #romeo and juliet #r&j meta #rj meta #i think we’re supposed to take him as the fun enjoyable antagonist #the actual Bad Guy(tm) is veronian society at large #the anime version makes me laugh above all #i know it’s not the exact same character but they make him so BAMF and then romeo’s design is just 🧍 #my favorite adaptational tybalts are still tom ross and szabó p. szilveszter #for straight productions i like zeffirelli’s actor for tybalt

Peace Train, by Yusuf/Cat Stephens (the 10,000 maniacs version is also really good). Also, somewhat paradoxically, Achilles Come Down by Gang of Youths.

Emma (2020) or the BBC Pride and Prejudice series (1995)

LOVE autumn scents like cinnamon and chai, but also love musky and woody scents. idk, depends. I also love petrichor candles.

Tulips. I LOVE tulips. Lilies and sunflowers as well. Oh, and white and orange roses

My close family and my wonderful, lovely friends <3. I love you allll <33 xx

physical: i like my hair and my freckles, and i also appreciate the things that my body is capable of doing :) non-physical: The things i really love about myself are my curiosity, my love for learning and reading, and my capacity to explore new realms of art and create something.

I love woody colors, whenever I see them I feel really calm. I also love dark marine blues and greens. Sunshine yellows and oranges make me feel really happy.

@runglorn, @legz2heaven, @riples-on-a-blank-shore, @this-wandering-wind, @kaleb-is-definitely-sane, and all the rest of ye mutuals :) tragically, a lot of my in-person friends aren't on tumblr. BUT I LOVE YOU ALL <3

reading, or looking at the rain

travelling to europe in the next few weeks!!!

for someone i've known for a while, I think i'd love an art date, a museum date, a bookstore date, basically anything where we both get to talk about things that we care about and have fun (and be cute :)) :). For a first date with someone I don't know that well, I prefer to have something also like a used bookstore date or just some setting where I get to talk with that person and find out more about them. Basically, in both situations, conversation is crucial. :)

I am actually doing really well right now. I'm in a very positive space at the moment, and I've been enjoying a lot of creative projects and reading. :)

stir-fried umami mushrooms with ramen/ravioli, sliced avocado, and tofu

100% good omens s1 or pride and prejudice (1995)--does that last one even count? it's a miniseries lmao

i'm going to do five emojis for the five people i tagged earlier. @runglorn: i associate you with the emoji 🕷️. you know why. @legz2heaven: i feel like cheese fits your vibe: 🧀<3 (yes, a lot of thought went into that :)) @riples-on-a-blank-shore: i feel like 🤗the hug emoji really fits. you've been so supportive over the last year and i really appreciate that :) @this-wandering-wind 🍄I love your outfits and i feel like the cottagecore/cute mushroom really works well :) @kaleb-is-definitely-sane I associate you with a love for books and other media. Here's a lovely little hardcover of your fav novel :) 📔love you all <3

I always enjoy having conversations with you about philosophy or life or books or media! You're awesome, and your blog is really cool!

fairy lights 100%

ish. i have a lot of stuffed animals that my grandma crocheted for me when i was really little. and recently, i've started crocheting my own. so yes, ig? lol

connections with people and books and art. i can't just choose one!! help lol

to know that everything will be ok. less seriously, i would give anything for some marzipan covered in chocolate rn

you'll get to a place where you feel comfortable and loved in your friend group and don't constantly think that everyone despises you. lol that was a seriously concern for a few years way back when :)

please, please, buy a cottage in the woods :)

sweaters that people have given/made for me. also, carpenter jeans. love them.

walk in the rain, read, just sit and stare at a blank wall lol

my best friend embroidered a gorgeous anne of green gables reading pillow for me a few years back. i love that pillow so much. thank you, bestie <3

ugh that's tough. I would love to live in the recent film "perfect days". But, if i could retain my basic human rights, i'd love to live an the emma (2020) adaptation. :)

When i was really little, I wanted to be anne shirley with everything in my soul. I think now, I would really love to be mirabel in the starless sea. If we ignored political and social issues, I would love to be a jane austen character, but similar to the issue with anne shirley, i just love having rights that little bit too much 😉

both? 🥺idk, a good hug can heal a lot of things. but i do love hand-holding too, especially when it's cold out.

morning for productivity and happiness, night for poetic value.

there are certain smells that remind me of home--a mix of vanilla and something i can never place. a lot of music by Eternal Eclipse makes me feel a longing for a long-forgotten sanctuary. there are certain comfort foods (generally soups) that have the same effect. certainly a lot of art can do that, as well as writing/poetry. I couldn't possibly list it all :)

thanks so much, @kaleb-is-definitely-sane for sending this to me. I will no longer apologize for sending you absurdly long asks anymore either 😉<3
