He's the sort who can't know anyone intimately, least of all a woman. He doesn't know what a woman is. He wants you for a possession, something to look at, like a painting or an ivory box. Something to own and to display. He doesn't want you to be real, and to think and to live. He doesn't love you. But I love you. I want you to have your own thoughts and ideas and feelings, even when I hold you in my arms.

Round 1 of preliminaries, group 3

The first two places get a place on the bracket

Little reminder: there will be 2 more rounds of preliminaries, the losing blorbos of this poll still have 2 chances of getting in the official bracket

Propaganda under the cut

Conner Bailey (The Land of Stories)

"He falls asleep in class and never hands in his work and gets bad grades but has lots of friends and a big imagination. Likes to write fantasy and science fiction (and maybe other genres as well), and bases a lot of his stories on his own adventures with his sister."

Lucy Honeychurch (A Room With A View)

"trapped in a relationship they feel obligated to maintain ? meanwhile meeting this weirdo who makes question marks out of his dinner and stuff? yeah this was so me and one point and literally helped me break up with my shitty ex. i love lucy honeychurch so much, she just wants to play dumb games with her brother and not be suffocated and live"

Greg Heffley (Diary of a Wimpy Kid)

"Let's be honest, most of us in middle school were a whiny self-centric bitches, and he's a prefect example of this. He will make snarky comments and wonder why a small child cired becuase of them, find his older brother annoying, be disgusted by his younger sib, make mean jokes towards his closest friend and just KNOW that one day he'll be rich and do nothing"

Gideon Nav (The Locked Tomb)

"She's a cocky butch lesbian who can't pull, and I would bet real money she's adhd. Incredibly unreliable narrator, partially because she tunes out of anything uninteresting to her (like the plot), partially because she's not on speaking terms with her own feelings. Deep down she's angry, and lonely, and convinced she's not good enough, and she's terrified to look it all in the eye. She'll keep all her feelings right here and then someday she'll die joking about it."

Akaashi Keiji (Haikyuu!!)

"Outwardly chill 99% of the time but a serial overthinker. Once screamed into his hands when stressed and acted like nothing was wrong right after (see: Image link)."

Burgerpants (Undertale)

"My propaganda is his game dialogue: - "(WHY IS THIS PERSON TRYING TO SELL ME SOMETHING THIS IS A HAMBURGER RESTAURANT I'M JUST TRYING TO SURVIVE)" - "What? Why do you keep trying to talk to me? I'll get in trouble if I get chummy with the customers. Sorry. ... SO, I wanted to be an ACTOR-." - "You've still got time. Don't live like me. I'm 19 years old and I've already wasted my entire life." - "Listen. I like you, little buddy. So I'm gonna save you a lot of trouble. Never interact with attractive people." - "Future? WHAT future? Nothing down here EVER changes. I'll probably be trapped at this stupid job forever. - "Ah... my boss. I love that guy. And by that I mean I hate him so, so much." - "Here's a trick, little buddy: Lie to yourself all the time. It makes you feel better." - "Even if it was just working this awful job... I think I did something! I don't know if it's true, but I'll believe it anyway!" - "Huh? Everyone else is DEAD? ... Does that mean I don't have to work today? God. That it were true, little weirdo. That it were true." - "I can't go to hell. I'm all out of vacation days." "

A Room With a View by E. M. Forster

“It isn't possible to love and part. You will wish that it was. You can transmute love, ignore it, muddle it, but you can never pull it out of you. I know by experience that the poets are right: love is eternal.”

You know what I love about comparing these scenes? Is that yes the visual parallels are 😍😍😍 and the similarities between Rory and Lucy, and Jess and George are so so perfect down them standing in exactly the same places-

HOWEVER, there is one way in which actually their roles in this scene are actually REVERSED.

In ARWAV we see Lucy observe George while she remains unseen by him, it’s this lovely moment where she just gets to indulge in how beautiful she finds him and look without being seen. And then, of course, he turns and sees her and is so overwhelmed by her beauty in return that he rushes up to kiss her.

Meanwhile in GG it’s JESS who is observing RORY for a moment before she turns and sees him. The roles get swapped and then to top it all off its RORY who kisses JESS. 

It’s like taking that scene from ARWAV and saying ‘what if Lucy kissed George?’ I love it SO MUCH!!!

#literati #a room with a view #rory x jess #lucy x george #rory gilmore #Lucy Honeychurch #jess mariano #george emerson #LOOK AT THE HAND PLACEMENT IN THE KISSES #jess is literally on lucy's side and rory is on george's!!! #like why go to the trouble of drawing a direct visual parallel to then flip their positions huh??? #there is a distinct possibility i am reading too much into this but i dont caaaare #comparing these hopeless romantics gives me joy in a joyless world #in conclusion gilmore girls is a room with a view fanfiction and i will not be taking questions

"A Breath of Fresh Air: E. M. Forster's 'A Room with a View'"

E. M. Forster's "A Room with a View" is a delightful exploration of love, freedom, and self-discovery set against the backdrop of Edwardian England and Italy. Published in 1908, the novel follows the journey of Lucy Honeychurch, a young woman torn between societal expectations and her own desires for independence and fulfillment.

At its heart, "A Room with a View" is a coming-of-age story that resonates with timeless themes of identity and personal growth. From the picturesque hills of Florence to the genteel drawing rooms of England, Forster paints a vivid portrait of a young woman's awakening to the possibilities of life and love. Lucy's journey towards self-realization is both poignant and humorous, as she navigates the complexities of societal norms and her own inner turmoil.

Forster's prose is both elegant and accessible, imbuing the narrative with a sense of warmth and intimacy. The novel is filled with memorable characters, from the eccentric Emersons to the prim and proper Charlotte Bartlett. Through their interactions, Forster explores themes of class, gender, and cultural differences, challenging readers to question the arbitrary boundaries that divide society.

Central to the narrative is Lucy's evolving relationship with George Emerson, a free-spirited young man whose unconventional views on love and life challenge Lucy's preconceived notions. Their burgeoning romance unfolds with a delicate blend of humor and tenderness, as Lucy grapples with her feelings of attraction and the expectations placed upon her by society.

The novel's title itself serves as a metaphor for the dichotomy between convention and liberation. A "room with a view" symbolizes the desire for openness and freedom, a longing to break free from the constraints of societal expectations and embrace life's possibilities. For Lucy, it represents not only physical space but also the emotional and spiritual freedom she seeks to attain.

Throughout the novel, Forster skillfully juxtaposes the idyllic landscapes of Italy with the stifling propriety of Edwardian England, highlighting the contrast between spontaneity and restraint, passion and repression. Italy, with its vibrant culture and sense of vitality, serves as a catalyst for Lucy's transformation, while England represents the suffocating conformity of bourgeois society.

At its core, "A Room with a View" is a celebration of the human spirit and the power of love to transcend social barriers. Forster's timeless tale reminds us of the importance of staying true to ourselves and following our hearts, even in the face of societal pressure and expectations. With its charming characters, evocative settings, and poignant themes, "A Room with a View" remains a captivating and resonant work that continues to enchant readers more than a century after its publication.

E. M. Forster's "A Room with a View" is available in Amazon in paperback 18.99$ and hardcover 25.99$ editions.

Number of pages: 494
